High Point Central — The loss of this game is probably not as bad as the loss of our end Bob Randall. Randall breaks his leg as he is tackled after a 12 yard run around right end in the second period. Homecoming rituals are carried out under a clouded spirit of anxiety. The outmanned Eagles fight valiantly but cannot halt High Point’s drive. The Eagles are able to score three times with an offense led, as usual, by Dick Idol. Idol scores twice on runs of 29 and 2 yards; Jimmy Vanhoy scores in Dickie Idol the last period on a 85 yard run, Halfback giving East a 35-19 defeat. Most Valuable Player TOUCHDOWN!

Records As He Gains 1334 Yards Lew Ayers Jaycee’s Blocking Trophy End Mike Biles Guard North Davidson: Dick Idol scores both of East’s touchdowns on runs of 3 and 44 yards giving the Eagles a 14-7 revenge victory. Last year the Davidson team upset the Eagles 9-6 on a field goal, dampening East’s Homecoming ceremonies. This vic- tory is the third straight for East and all three have been by one touch- down margins. George Shouse, Rob- ert Poindexter, Ken Weavil, and Tony Larrimore play an outstand- ing defensive game. The game leaves East a 5-1 record thus far in the season. Leonard Brady Jim Buckner Center End Burlington Williams: Burlington deals East a rugged 4-A defense which the Eagles cannot overcome and hands us a 81-13 defeat. The tough Bulldogs’ line is unable to con- tain the Eagles’ brilliant running Idol, who crashes the line for a 55 yard run for a touchdown. Two Bur- lington touchdowns later, Dick runs a reverse for a 19 yard score. The defeat gives East a 5-2 overall rec- ord but we remain victorious in con- ference battles.

Reynolds: East Forsyth’s share of the 6,000 fans in Bowman Gray Stadium has little to cheer about in the first half as Rey- nolds’ Tom English and associ- ates smash the Eagles’ line. The big 4-A eventual State Cham- pions are unstoppable, giving the East offense few chances with the ball. A misleading final score of 28-7 does not reveal the second half battle in which Reynolds has to fight a spirited East defense led by Charles Roberts. Finally, late in the fourth period, the Eagle offense shows a flicker of : ; ; Kim Newsom life following the fourth Demon End touchdown. Dick Idol leads a touchdown march in which he carries the ball 10 out of 12 times for 53 yards. East advances to the last game of the season with a 5-4 record, the four de- feats being to 4-A teams. their Bison prey. Robert Poindexter - Tackle TOUCHDOWN!
