QUAKES By JOHN HAWORTH Since the last issue of the Guilfor dian, the Quaker basketball five has Started to roll, having racked up three conference wins, plus a pair of vic tories over Lynchburg. In so doing, the locals have maintained fourth place in the North State conference with a three-three record, not counting Wednes day's fracas with Elon, for the highest position a Guilford club has main tained in many a moon. Credit A lion's share of the credit for this better than usual showing of the Quaker cagers goes to Coacli I>oak, who in addition to his duties of re finishing I lie gym Moor, arranging sched ules of practice that would not con flict with the (lancers, and wrangling enough beat from powers-that-be to to warm the gym for games, has been called upon to coach basketball. And to top that. Coach Doak had another botnptet tossed in bis lap, namely the arrangement for transpor tation, a task of small consequence what with a friendly gas rationing board in Greensboro. He git enough gas for bis trips for one car.

The garage, it seems, would be empty without the college station wagon to fill it up, day in and day out. So the college station wagon stayed at home; the basketball team was forced to take two cars on every trip. Now the gasoline is all gone. Hut there are only three more trips coming tip. To Boone, Hickory, and Lynch burg. Short trips, only about, say (550 miles in all. Hut that's neither here nor there; the college authorities said to go ahead and have basketball, and the college authorities meant just that. Haven't they kept the gym nice and cool to keep the players from getting too hot? Haven't they kept the lights in the gytn small so that the bright lights wouldn't blind the boys'/ Sure they have. So to Coach I >oak and the powers that-be we extend our humble thanks for making possible this successful bas ketball season.

Page Three Till Tonight First Since 1942 Season Guilford makes the long trek to Hickory tonight, where Coach Doak's Quaker five meets one of the toughest foes in the conference this season, the Lenoir-Kliyne Bears. Currently, Shore Neal's club is glid ing along in second place of the loop standings, having lost only to Catawba and Appalachian, the latter defeat com ing as something of an upset. At any rate, the Bears, paced throughout the season by mighty mite I'ete Armstrong, have scored impres sive wins over other league members, and should offer still' opposition for the locals tonight. Too, Guilford will be playing to night without the services of Ilamp Howerton, stalwart at forward all season, who will probably be out for the next week. A slick floor and a handy window proved the big for ward's undoing; nine stitches in two bad cuts made his appearance in to night's game impossible. The return to action of Norm Good ridge, veteran guard and letterman, has and will help the Doakmen no little bit; already Good ridge has been [of great help to the club in games with Catawba, Atlantic Christian, and Elon. I'rolmbli' starting line-ups for to night's game: Guilford Lenoir-Rhyne F—Haworth Cline l'"I—Hirabayaslii 1 —Hirabayaslii Baxter C—Parlow Entzi G—Alkawa Armstrong G—Goodridge Ritchie Bcwen, Hirabayashi Lead Aspirants for Loop Honors As ilic basketball season nears its close, and North State teams begin to point for the annual tournament, probably to be resumed this season, the cards are on the table as time lo pick the all-North State five roils around. Topping the slate of stars is Carol Itowen, already all-state football tim ber at Catawba this fall. Leading the scoring for all loop players by a bandy margin, liowen seems a cinch to re peat in his second bid for the mythical club. Along with liowen, little Eddie Hira bayaslii. while not matching Howen's spectacular play, has proven again that lie is perhaps the most agile ball handler in the Little Six. As captain of the Guilford entry, Hirabayaslii has led his team in scoring, with well over a hundred points to his credit. Itowen and Hirabayaslii are the only two performers who stand a chalice to repeat as all-conference, however, since all other members of the club a year ago have been lost to the armed services and through graduation, Howen's team-mate, center I'aul Marklin, also looks good, his MO point total against Elon being the highest number of points for a single player in any loop contest this winter. At I.enoir-Hhyne, I'ete Armstrong, tiny guard, lias played exceptionally well, while High Point's strongest can didate appears to be Shook, high scorer for the Panthers, or Sullivan, who, like Hirabayashi, is a steady ball handler and guard. Hill Miller and John Thomas Jones of Appalachian, liinford Far low of Guilford, Owen of Elon, and Askew of Atlantic Christian round out the list of likely candidates.
