Indian-Guilford
At Orangeburg
The Newberry Indians engage
the powerful Guilford College
club on Friday afternoon at
Orangeburg, the game to begin at
2:00 p.m. This clash promises to
he one of the best to ever be play
ed at the Orangeburg Fair
Grounds. Newberry enters the
game with a 4-1 record and Guil
ford with a 3-2 record for the sea
son. Newberry will be banking its
hopes on the running and wizardy
of Danny Brabham, Quarterback
who is showing up so fine this
season. In the line play, Grover
Davis and Johnny Lee are pre
senting a near impregnable wall
which can open the holes and
keep them shut on the defensive.
Also Ed Hester has been holding
his own and has turned in some
sterling performances in the past
two games. Paul Davis is the
leading ground gainer on the
squad, scoring twice in the Mary
ville game which Newberry won
Sat. by a 13-7 count. Paul is a
Frosh back from Abbeville, and
has great possibilites as a back
in Coach Kirkland’s split-T op
erations. Rounding out the back-
field will be Stan Bessinger at
Fullback. Stan has been out with
injuries a large part of the sea
son but is coming right along now
and should be in shape for the
game. Grady Ray, the Frosh sen
sation last season, is hack in fine
shape now and turned in a very
good performance in last week’s
win.
In the line, Mike Maksim and
Ed Blanko, pending the outcomes
of some injuries, will be playing
the ends. If they don’t come
through, Harold Green and Hubert
Morris, both of who turned in
good performances last week. Ed
die Jones and Grover Davis will
take over the tackle slots. Frank
Harbol and J. Lee are the likely
starters at the guard position and
Ed Hester has the center slot
nailed down.
All in all the Newberry team
may be hurt by some injuries but
if the injuries come through,
they should give the Guilford team
a real game on Friday afternoon.
