This is the third game this year the Cats have lost because of an extra point. The first half was filled with fine defensive play on both teams. Late in the second quarter the Indians scored on a trick after being held three downs inside the five. The half ended with the Indians ahead 7-0. The second half got underway with Pappas kicking to the Indians ;i yard line. With the ball changing hands several times the Indians managed to drive to paj dirt in the latter part of the third period. The Cats' offense got on fire Jn the final period to give the Indians quite a scare. After driving the ball down the field, Red Stevens scored on a quarterback sneak The extra point went over the tip of the goal post, but the referee ruled it no good. In a very short time the Cats had the ball again. With a good pass from Stevens to Garrison, the Cats got down to the ten yard marker. Two plays later Stevens went over a- gain. Pappas'. kick for the extra point was blocked. The ball game ended 13-12 in favor of the Indians.

Women's Intramurals Off With A Bang The women's intramurals in field hockey got off to a good start under the sponsorship of the Women's Athletic Association. A wide interest was shown and competition keen. Doris Wells, Eleanor Silvers, Julia Calhoun, Hester Martin, and Harriet Gibson got the ball rolling by umpiring and helping all the newcomers get adjusted. Mrs. Ritter was on hand too, to keep the players going and on their feet. Sometimes it was hard to tell if it was a team mate or pile of dust on the ground. It was fun, though. To start the intramurals on field hookey, Madison first floor beat Madison third floor 3 to 0. Hester Martin, Captain of first floor, and Sarah Jane Davis, Captain of third floor did a good job of lining up the teams and starting an exciting game. The game was exciting until the finish. Janet Kitchens, Geraldine Jackson, and Barbara Proctor did the scoring for first floor, with the help of the other good players. For third floor, Ann Worley and Carrie Mae Plemmons were outstanding in both offensive and defensive, along with the rest of the team, which never let their spirit die. The second game to be played was second Moore and third Moore. It was a forfeit by second to third. Nice going third floor. Field hockey was surely in the air when fourth Madison and second Madison played. Everyone had fighting spirit and played hard. Second won over fourth by a score of 4 to 0. Both teams fought to the last and fourth never gave up. The ones scoring for fourth were Becky Jessup, who played a mighty good game, going over for 2 points. Then, Shirley Cox, captain of second, making 2 points. Dot Logan, fourth fjoor's captain, was.a very good defensive as well as Offensive players. Peggy Gibbs and Jane Annis, a- long with the rest of the team, did some good playing. The next game was probably the more exciting one. Hester Al captain of first Madison and Juua Calhoun, captain of third Moore, led their teams on to a successful game. ' Third Moore came out on top with a scor,e of 2 to 0. Jennie Mitchum scored in the first half to put third Moore ahead, in the second half, Eleanor Silver scored again for third Moore and put them ahead 2 to. 0. For first Madison, Betty Anne Howell played a good game before getting injured. Also, Barbara Wells, a right wing team mate, played an excellent game. Everybody was out to win the game and third Moore did a good job, although they had a hard time doing it. This brings the hockey scores up to the semi-finals and if you don't want to miss something good, you better get out to the hockey field on October 20, and see the great game between two championship teams. This game of field hockey is really interesting and lots of fun. If you think football is rough boys, just come on down to see the girls (especially beginners) play field hockey and you will change your mind. Intramurals in Western Carolina College have been a main interest to all in the past. Last year some keen competition was shown. The champion of ping pong was Dot Dotson. Champion of badminton and tennis was Julia Ann Calhoun. Doris Wells took over championship of foul shooting and shuffleboard. Hester Martin was winner of the horseshoe contest. As one can see, these intramurals are fun, so girls, come on and see CATS GO DOWN 31 TO 7 TO E. T. The Catamounts played a good first half against East Tennessee, but at the beginning of the second half East Tennessee scored two quick touchdowns on passes as a result of our fumbles, and in doing broke the Cats' back. The ball game got under way with East Tennessee returning the kickoff to the Cats' 20 yard line. The Cats put up a great defensive wall and East Tennessee was unable to score until the middle of for yourself. Who knows? You might be the champion of one of these sports. the second quarter. The half ended with the Buc's ahead by a score of 6-0. The second half the Cats fumbled several times and had three passes intercepted. With this and the outstanding catches of Morrison, the score rolled up to 26-0. The Cats scored their lone touchdown in the third quarter with a pass from Stevens to Garrison. Stevens kicked the extra point, but the Bucs wen on to win the game 31-7.
