Regular basketball practice got
underway this week with about 30
boys out for the first clay’s drill
The boys out were mostly fresh
men, with a few upperclassmen
scattered about. Although most
of the time the first clay was taken
up with fundamentals ot basket
ball, some of the boys had an op
portunity to show Coach Adcox
that they knew how to ha-idle the
sphere.
The practice sessions to date have
been mostly passing and limberiuy
bp diilh. although one five minute
scrimr .^e v.as held. Five boys show
ing up about eciually well so far are
Fred Register and Wayne Taylor, both
right handers; Fred Chandler and Bob
McCotter, both left handers; and Dan
ny Banks, who seems to use either
hand equally well. Others showing
signs of true basketball ability are
Bill MacIntyre. Ronald Grinstead,
Bobby Foust, Wallace Owen. Fred
Yarborough, Bob Graham, and Wil
lard Marlette. With a stiff schedule
of the best teams in the conference
ahead of them, the boys have really
got to get on the ball before the
snow flies.

The boy’s intramural touch
football season ended this week
with the freshmen and the upper
classmen in a tie lor the top spot.
It is rumored that a gala event
is planned for the play off with
either a game on Thanksgiving
afternoon, or else a night game if
it can be arranged.
Coach Adcox is really to be'con
gratulated for the fine job he has
done in the intramural setup this
year. He has sacrificed a lot of time
and hard work in order to make the
program the success that it has been

The upperclassmen touch football
team defeated the freshman team
Monday, November 5. by the score of
9 to 6 The game was the Inst of
the season and proved to be a thrll'er
from beginning to end. The upper
classmen, by winning the game,
gained a tie for first place, and a
playoff game will be necessary. As
yet no plans hav? been made but it
is hoped that the game will be played
either at night or on Thanksgiving
afternoon.
In the victory, the upperclass line
w^s the standout on the field Led
by Don Miller and Bob Graham, who
refused to be blocked out. the line
was rushing the passer on every play
and many of the passes fell short be
cause of the continued harassing by
Leon Gibbs. Wayne Taylor, and Em
erson Whatley completed the line
, that averaged better than 190 pounds
' per man. Fred Yarborough and Rod-
I ney Southerland stood out in the
! backfield and Fred Register was sud-
I den death on any passes that came
j near him at right end Willard-Mar
lette did a neat job at center for the
older team.
The freshman team was outclassed
^^d its only score came on a fluke
play. Bill MacIntyre and Bob Me
cotter were standouts on both de
fense and offense for the freshmen
and Fred Chandler’s fme passes went
for naught when they were either
caught in the high wind that tltfy
nil afternoon, or else were batted
down by the upperclassmen’s sec
ondary.
