Brother!. . Last week the
rain . . by at least four or

five touchdowns.
as a lot of football teams. It
was one of the big weeks for shouid be easy for Jess Parker's
upsets all season and the Ghost
gang.
guessed them just about the way

Elme Roper picked the winner.
Hertford over Jackson . . . the
Indians will moider 'em.
The only upset we picked cor-
rectly was Texas knocking off
unbeaten Baylor, but the ones
that bounced back were rough.
Things were tough all over, and
the week's average skidded way
down to .500 which isn't even a
passing mark in grammar
school.
There were exactly three
games involving North Carolina's Big Four there
were exactly three games miss-
ed--'nuf said about that.
In spite of high water, upsets
and everything else, though, the
Ghost is still guessing and this
week maybe some of these will
come through:
High School Games Friday
Roanoke Rapids over Green-
ville . . . maybe the Jackets
can break even for the season
after all if they can get past
this one.

Louisburg over Washington
the Red Devils should cinch the
Conference crown in what prom-
ises to be their toughest game
of the season.

College Games Saturday
Carolina over Maryland
it isn't going to be easy, but
maybe the Tar Heels learned an
important lesson last week.
Wake Forest over Clemson .. .
sleeper of the week; it'll take
some upsetting to do, but we'll
ride along with the Deacs on
this one.
N. C. State over Duquesne.. .
the Wolfpack ought to be back
in winning form after two bad
weeks.
Duke over George Washington
the Blue Devils keep look-
ing good in spite of losing two
in a row.
Army over Penn . . . those
Cadets don't intend to lose this
tussle.
Notre Dame over North-

stop those Irish.

too much Mustang for the Ra-
zorbacks.
California over Wash. State . .

Cornell over Dartmouth . .. a
close one for the boys from Ith-
aca.

tige to regain now.
Georgia over Auburn . .. Bull-

again.
Texas Christian over
Texas

work.

er.
