Mustangs Stung
Waynesboro, Miss, rocked Fri
day October 5, 1856 when the Car
yer High School Hornets buzzed
into town. The Hornets left the
Mustangs with a sorehead of 1872.
The Hornets received on the
kickoff. The ball was juggled
about the field by both teams in
the first quarter. On the Mustangs
fourth down, along the fifty yard
line, they kicked into the Hornets
end zone. Hornet halfback Uranus
Stafford, couldn't seem to grip the
grounded pigskin and an eager
Mustank closed in for the kill and
covered for the touchdown.
In the second quarter, Edward
Blake rocketed Is yards to the
Mustang Is yard line to set up a
score. Langston Pickett, Hornet
Quarterback, took over to make a
beautiful run for a touchdown. The
extra point by Pessie 1.-THE Toe"
Martin, no good.
The Hornets were constantly on
the move. The third quarter was a
new experience for Donald Moore,
who caught short pass by Lang
ston Pickett on the 10 yard line
to score. Hornet halfback, Bonnie
"Mr. T. D." Means, trudged over
the extra point.
With seconds to play Bonnie
Means, intercepted Mustang pass
and ran IS yards, when Mustang
came from nowhere" and stopped
him on the 2 yard line. The game
ended on the down.
The Hornets line stuck with the
Mustang backs like bees on honey.
Only a small example of what
Heart of Mary will get.

Area Crews Trail
In Olympic Trials

SYRACUSE, June 80 (Spe-
ciaD. - RowerS from Washing
ton, D. c., and nearby Virginia
didn't exactly overpower any
body over choppy Onondaga
Lake yesterday as the postponed
heats in the Olympic trials were
run off, but there remained
some measure of hope, however
small, for advancement today.
The best showing was that by
the Old Dominion Boat Clubs
pair without coxswain - the
brothers Joseph and Thomas
Amlong. They finished second
to a Navy pair in a heat but
their time of 9:04.2 was not re-
garded as impressive inasmuch
as in the second heat the Olym-
pic champions of 1952-Charles
Logg, jr., Army, and Tom Price,
Navy, turned in a time of 1910.
Logg and Price were the only
United States rowerS, aside
from the Naval Academy eight
cared crew. to win gold medals
in the 1852 Olympics at Hell
sinki. Finland.
In the four-oared shell with
out coxswain in the Potomac
Boat Club was fourth and last
in its heat, won by the favored
West Side Rowing Club. The
crew of Allen Rayfield, Tom
Hyde, Paul Wager and Bill Nc
Tigue never was very close.
Potomac had a second entry
in the double SOULS Tom o.
Jones and Art Potter-but only
got a third in field which the
Detroit Boat Club apparently
dominates.
