  • Page 6 The Western Carolinian Friday, October 22, 1965 Behind Closed Doors By Don Lucas, Sports Editor A recent interview with Coach Dan Robinson brought praise and concern for this year's Catamount football team. Giving a rundown on the Mars Hill game, Coach Robinson was quick to point out the all-round team effort shown by the Cats. His praise was not directed to any one player because of the fine play of the entire squad, but he was well pleased with the tremendous progress of Tommy Rogers, an offensive tackle. John Tinker and Bill Stanley also received mention for their steady performances in every Catamount contest thus far. Western's domination of the game was noted as the prime factor in the win. The Cats' rugged defense forced numerous Mars Hill fistakes, and the offense was quick to capitalize on them. This was the best showing for the Catamounts' offense this season. Bill Zimmerman, "Jet" Johnson, Roger Cox and Leroy Holden were credited with the scoring for the Cats. Zimmerman and Johnson crossed the pay- dirt stripe twice. Danny Hill was a bright spot for the Cats, passing for two touchdowns. Hill, a freshman, saw plenty of action against Mars Hill, as he and David Turnipseed shared the quarterbacking duties. First team quarterback Jim Williams missed the game because of a leg injury. He will be back, however, when the Cats entertain Lenoir Rhyne tomorrow night. Looking ahead to tomorrow night's game, Coach Robinson had plenty of praise for the Bears. "Lenoir Rhyne is a strong, tough and extremely fast team," said Robinson. "They are more versatile than they were last year, and this has made them tough." Sam Holcombe, Wayne Bell and Mike Campbell give the Bears a fine all-round offensive backfield. This, coupled with perhaps the strongest defense the Cats have faced this year, gives them an undefeated conference record. Despite the praise for Lenoir Rhyne, Coach Robinson showed no signs of pessimism. He has all the confidence in the world that the Cats will leave Memorial Stadium victorious tomorrow night. ASCT Music Department Has Unusual Collection Dr. William G. Spencer, chairman of the Music Department at Appalachian State Teachers College, is adding to a growing collection of old and unusual musical instruments. Dr. Spencer pursues the collection as a hobby. Recently he added a type of "Japanese autoharp" and a Meyers System Flute, dating back to the 1800's, to the growing list for the department. The Japanese instrument is known as a Taisho-Koto. These two instruments, along with others, are on display in the Music Department.

C. Indians Nip Cats, 18 - 13 Catawba Game Spotlights Two Of Top Cats By Lamar Buchanan Ken Lewis and Ed Bowles were chosen as the outstanding players of the Homecoming game against Catawba. Lewis was chosen as the outstanding defensive lineman for the Cats. Ken was a defensive end and an offensive tackle at Headland High in East Point, Ga. He is a sophomore defensive guard here at Western, and stands 6' 2", weighing 205 pounds. Bowles was selected as the outstanding offensive lineman of the Catawba game. Ed, one of the co-captains, is a junior from Mocksville. At 5' 11", 223 pounds, Ed is a leading blocker for the Catamount attack. Hill's Pass Proves Deadly, Ruins Homecoming Festivities Ken Lewis Ed Bowles Freshman Ike Hill's 84-yard touchdown pass to end Dave Robbins knocked the Catamounts from the undefeated role Saturday night, October 8, in the annual Homecoming game for the Cats. Hill's bomb proved to be deadly as the Catawba Indians won the hard- fought contest, 18-13. After a scoreless first period, quarterback Jim Williams romped 11 yards for a touchdown with a minute and a half left in the first half. Doug King kicked the extra point and the Cats took a 7-0 lead into the dressing room. Early in the third period Catawba gained possession on the Catamounts' 42-yard line after a tremendous goal- line stand by the Cats. A 37- yard run by John Scott, a personal foul penalty, and a Scott-to-David Campbell pass gave Catawba the ball on the Western 14-yard line. On the next play, Scott hit Robbins in the end zone for the touchdown. A try for the two-point conversion failed, and the Cats still led, 7-6. It didn't take the Catamounts long to increase the margin, as they marched deep into Catawba territory on the next series of downs. Ellis "Jet" Johnson took the ball over for the score from one yard out. King's kick was wide but the Cats led now by 13-6. Catawba, however, never gave up. With their backs to the wall, they marched to the Catamounts' two-yard line where Scott hit Hill for their second touchdown. Not satisfied with a tie, the Indians elected to go for two points again, but failed. Western took the kickoff and marched to the Catawba 34.

The Tiger-Lilies defeated the Lady Hornets on October 12 by 2-0. Kathy Foster scored twice for the Tiger-Lilies. In the aftermath, the Skylarks forfeited to the Hichhikers. In the Blue Ridge League playoff game on October 13, the Tiger-Lilies slipped by the Lady Hornets to gain first place in the league. The game had ended in a tie, but the Tiger-Lilies were crowned victorious by virtue of the "yardage ruling." On Monday, October 18, the Tiger-Lilies met the Trojans for the field hockey championship. When the dust had cleared and the sticks had stopped swinging, the Trojans had remained unbeaten and unscored upon, as they nipped the Tiger-Lilies, 1-0 on Judy Davis' second-half goal.
