Panthers Compile Impressive Record To Lead Conference Western Carolina's Catamounts won their 35th consecutive home victory Monday night with a 72-65 win over the Carson-Newman Eagles, but it 'ook a tremendous comeback effort to overcome a 7-point lead with only five minutes left to play. The visiting Eagles led 58- 51 when Henry Logan, playing with four fouls, led the Cats as they scored 12 straight points to take a five- point lead at 63-58 with 2:30 remaining. In the last four minutes of the game Western outscored the opposition 21- 6. Two baskets by John Brintnall, and one each by John Bloom, J. B. Kiser, and Logan plus two free throws by Logan enabled the Cats to take the lead as they held Carson- Newman scoreless for three minutes. Logan led all scorers with 23 points, hitting 7 field goals and 9 of 10 free throws. Brintnall with 16, Charlie McConnell with 14, and Kiser with 11 were the others in double figures. For Carson-Newman, four players hit double figures: Ar- rowood with 15, Derry 14, Hill and Cannon with 13 each. The first half was a see saw affair, with the lead changing hands 17 times and the score tied on seven occasions. Neither team managed more than a four-point lead during the first period. Carson-Newman led by one point at halftime, 34-33. The Eagles entered the game with a 14-1 record and a national ranking. Their only other loss was a one-point overtime defeat at the hands of Western Kentucky. The Cats lost three in a row during the holidays, to Lamar Tech of Louisiana and Southeastern Louisiana in the Bayou Tournament and to Pan American, ranked fourth nationally.

M. Now that the holiday basketball play is over, the teams are beginning to take shape around the Carolinas Conference. High Point is living up to is preseason billing as favorite by compiling an 11-0 record thus far. The Panthers are led by four seniors: guards Barry Smith and Joe Forte, forward Kirk Stewart, and center Dale Neel. Stewart scored 51 points in a rout of Belmont Abbey last week. The Panthers were especially For Gant Shirts VISIT THE STEVEN VANCE MEN'S SHOP in Winners ASHEVILLE, N. C. HENSLEY'S TIRE CO. RECAPPING New And Used Tires Compact and Foreign Tires Cullowhee Road successful in their holiday tournament in Winston-Salem, defeating NC College and Rockhurst of Kansas City. The game with NCC marked the first time in the history of the state that an all-white team has met an all-Negro team on the basketball court. The win over Rockhurst was also significant in that it was the second year in a row that a Carolinas Conference team has de feated the defending NAIA champion. (Western Carolina- defeated Pan American College last December after losing to the Broncos in the national finals in March.) High Point stands as the team to beat in the conference, and the Cats get a crack at the Panthers next Tuesday as they get into the thick of the conference action.
