THE GUILFORDIAN
Quakers Lose to
Appalachian as
Curtain Falls
The basketbal season is over as
far as Guilford College is con
cerned. In the last week of the
season the Quakers ran into quite
a bit of tough luck. Hanes Hosiery
dumped them 64-56. Then they
bumped into an Eastern Carolina
Teachers team that was in the mid
dle of a Hot streak and got beat,
56-32.
This game was followed by a
thrilling one at home against Ca
tawba. It was a nip-and-tuck battle
until the last eight minutes of play.
Then the Indians got hot and de
feated the Quakers, 64-52.
In the last game of the season,
the Quakers went over to Elon and
were beaten by a 70-51 score. At
this time Elon was the hottest team
in the conference, as they later
proved by their showing against
High Point, Catawba, and Appa
lachian in the tournament at States
vine.
Guilford's tournament game was
lost to Appalachian by a score of
70-59, ending the basketball season.
Star of the game was J. T. Venable,
who scored 15 points before he
fouled out in the second half.

Basketball
A girls' basketball team elected
by voting among the diflerent girls
represented Guilford in a basketball
game on February at Woman's
College. Twelve girls attended and
they lost the game by a close score
of 25 to 20. Both teams were about
evenly matched with Woman's Col
lege having slight advantage as to
height. The twelve girls were: for
wards, Hockett, Venable, Williams,
I /owe, Roberson, and Haworth;
guards Neece, Browfi, Martin, Vic
torius, Kirkman, and Smoak.
"Butch" Haworth was high scorer
with ten points.
'Hie guards deserve much credit
for a good defensive game. After
the game the girls were invited to
stay for dinner and W.C.'s fame
with Wingate Junior College. This

Director: "Change the settings, quick! The basketball scene
is finished. The next scene is spring football!"
Stage Manager: "Kee-rect, Mr. Director—only you're a little
late. You see, the hopeful grid candidates donned their pads and
headgears a couple of weeks ago."
In fact, the boys have already had a couple of real live scrimmages.
They proved pretty successful, too, considering the large number of new
inexperienced boys with whom Coaches Eddie and Emmett are having
to work. From here, we seem to be rather strong in some positions, but
quite weak in others. Our most outstanding deficiencies at present seem
to be quarterbacks, centers and fullbacks. Venuto, Elkins, and Jones,
all inexperienced at running a split "T," are working hard and improv
ing steadily. Of course, with the return of "Wild Goose" Johns from
the cage wars, worries at the quarter will be dispensed with. Our full
backs at present consist of a couple of rough, tough converted linemen,
namely, Chief and Shugart. Both are hard chargers, but lack the
finesse and experience necessary; however, both of these will be acquired
with practice. At center, Larry Crawford is the only stalwart returning.
However, Gresham will probably become a center and Fettor, a new
comer, is trying hard.
We've got several good guards, tackles and ends, and you just can't
beat Breedon, Yarborough, Venuto, and Feeney at the halves, as well as
freshmen La key (who has an injured knee) and Browning. So you see,
a few capable reserves in key places, and we'll have a championship
team! Look out, Appalachian! September 17 isn't too far off!
Now to basketball—a touchy subject to most Quakers this year. The
only truly bright spot in the season just past was our thrilling victory
over Lenoir Rhyne—one of the best games I've seen. Everything was
right that night. The Rebels (Confederate hats and all) were whooping
it up from their improvised cheering section. Dick was hitting, the
others were working together smoothly. Coach Lentz had a birthday and
a new pair of shoes—we just couldn't lose that night.
Then we played High Point over here and we all expected repeat per
formance—up until the last eight minutes of the game; that is, we just
couldn't keep up that terrific pace.
Then we said, "Wait until the tournament, and we'll show 'em some
thing." So we played Appalachian and A 1 couldn't buy a basket, Dick
couldn't get a shot, etc. The only bright spot that night was those
uncanny hooks of J. T. Venable, who collected 15 for himself.
Here's a tip: Watch the Guilford Clowns in the Piedmont Open fofr
some thrilling basketball.
Got to go. See ya' next issue!
