Plans Are Made For Basketball
Season; Girls Form New Team
Under the name “Brevard Col
lege Legionettes,” a team of girls
will take the court against a quint
et from a neighboring college
when basketball season opens. This
v/ill be the first time in five years
that the college has been rep
resented by girls in this sport.
The schedule of games will be
announced soon. Anticipated are
contests with Lees-McRae junior
college, Spartanburg junior col
lege, Appalachian State Teachers
college, Mitchell college, and Win
gate.
The Brevard college team will
be under the leadership of Miss
Louise Moseley, girls’ physical ed
ucation director. Miss Moseley has
coached basketball teams at Simp-
sonville, S. C., high school; Blue
Mountain College, Mississippi; and
at Spartanburg, S. C., Junior Col
lege.
The Monroe Wilson post of the
American Legion in Brevard has
provided black and gold satin
uniforms for the girls; and the
squad will play under the name
“Brevard College Legionettes.”
The program of the Legionet
tes. Miss Moseley has indicated
will not be intensely competitive
as is the men’s schedule. She feels
however, that the college and the
town will enjoy the variety and
color of girls’ basketball. “The
team will benefit,” she said, “not on
ly from the games, but from the
varied contacts that the contests
will provide with girls of other
colleges in the region.”
Miss Moseley has explained that
the team will follow strictly the
rules set up by the National Sec
tion of Women’s Athletics, an af
filiate of the American Associa
tion for Health and Physical Ed-

On this afternoon. Coach Bob An
drews recalls, psychology won the
game. Partly because of the fact
that Brevard for the past several
years had twisted the Lion’s tail
with clocklike regularity, the Mars
Hill boys were in no frame of mind
to take on a tornado.
About the middle of the second
quarter, David Price scooted
through the center of the Mars HUl
line and blocked one of Treatt’s
kicks to get the ball for Brevard.
And Wilkerson on a 15-yard end-
around made Price’s blocking pay
off. The half ended with the ball
in midfield in possession of the
Tornadoes.
The second half was a shower
of kicks, with equally matched
lines fighting to a standstill around
midfield and with the backs of both
teams pinned down.
This Tornado eleven accOfmp-
lished a feat unique in Brevard
gridiron history—it whipped the
Mars Hill Lions twice in the same
year.
Thanksgiving Day
I remember how Mother fixed for
us
The dinners fit for kings.
And how she’d make the pies and
cakes
While we’d play games and sing.
“All right, come to dinner,” she
would call.
And I’d hurry to my place.
And I’d snitch a piece of icing
As our heads were bowed in
grace.
There’d be turkey, and stuffing,
and cranberry sauce.
And peas fixed just as I’d
like.
And hot bread . . . and butter,
And pie . . . and everything
fixed just right.
I’d eat, and eat, and eat,
’Till I was really stuffed.
Then Mother’d say when I leaned
back,
“Are you sure you’ve had
enough?”
But today I see through different
eyes
Things I saw then at only a
glance;
Material food is not as important
now
As spiritual food to advance . . .
