The Gold and Black gridders of Roanoke Rapids High School, under the guidance of their new head coach Danny Cagle, assisted by Marvin L. Woodard, finished the 1948 season in fifth place in the Northeastern Conference by splitting even in six loop contests. Including the non-confer- ence clashes the Yellow Jackets registered four wins against five losses, but despite their mediocre season they ' provided many ineffable thrills that will always be remembered. Co-captains, Vance Stewart and Wordest Felts, concluded their scholastic grid careers by leading their teammates to a most impressive win over a weak Weldon eleven. In mid-season eighteen members of the Junior varsity squad were promoted to the varsity in efforts to strengthen the Jax. As the season pro- gressed many of the younger set gained valuable experience working together with the veteran players for a powerful aggregation this season and an indomitable club for the future. Another page of pigskin history has been written, the football togs have been hung up, but the memories of another grid season linger on. , Stewart, Captain lil Y Ws, Co-Cavtain i m ■ ' 1 Page Sixty Six
