This season the North Carolina team has given good indication of its might by de feating Presbyterian 450 and Wofford, who has a strong squad 38-11. Leading the LR offense are tailback Mike McRee, fullback Carl Bartles and wingback Toby Morgan, all of whom are out standing backs with numerous long touchdown runs to their credit over the past two years. In preparing for the versatile single wing attack many unique defensive problems arise, and the Newberry defensive team will have to give exceptional ef fort in order to compete with the potent Bear barrage. The Indians will be facing the Hick ory team without linebacker Bob Hammersla, who has been side lined indefinitely from a knee injury received in Saturday’s game. Taking over Hammersla duties as defensive quarterback will be this week’s Renegade, linebacker Billy Koch. Saturday night’s game will be played on College Field at 8:00 p.m. in Hickory, N. C. retire.

Koon, Church of God evangelist, held a revival at the Church of God in Bellville, Ohio last week. The revival started Sept. 14th and continued through Sunday night, September 28th, with a baptismal service on Sun day evening. Rev. Koon flew to Ohio on Eastern Airline Jet and was met at Columbus airport by Rev. Harry R. Dlesk, pastor of the Church of God at Bellville, a city thirty miles north of Columbus. Koch named “Renegade” Billy Koch, a 5’ 9”, 160 pound junior linebacker from Newber ry, was chosen by the New berry College coaching staff as this week’s Renegade, the most outstanding defensive player in Saturday night’s game with Catawba. Koch received this honor by making nine individual tackles, assisting on five other tackles and by producing one big defen sive play, although he was in jured and was not able to play the entire ball game. Newberry Line Coach Steve Robertson said about Koch, “He has done an outstanding job for us; and even though he’s not the biggest and fastest in the league, he may well be the smartest. He is an outstanding competitor.” Koch will be defensive quart erback for the Indians now that senior co-captain Bob Hammer sla has been sidelined with an injury which will probably keep him out for the remainder of the season. a week’s intensive training be fore freshmen cadets arrived.
