May 3, 1963 Thinclads Perhaps the greatest factor in Guilford's Track success this season is the team's great depth. Coach John Stewart feels that the Sport slight by HANK SIEGEL -. € fcg- a r ■ Jim Stephens Every year around Easter time there is a sudden influx of golfing enthusiasts to the Greensboro area. The reason, of course, is that at this time they will have one of their few chances to see some of the greatest names in golf in action at the Greater Greensboro Open at Sedgefield. It must be tough on a young golfer playing his first G.G.0., in the company of such greats and large crowds, to do well. But at the most recent G.G.0., a few weeks ago, one did do well. His name is Jim Stephens. He's a Jun ior here at Guilford and number one man on the current Golf team, now 6-1-1. Jim finished second in the ama teur division of the Tournament behind veteran Bob Loy, Jr., who played bis college golf several years ago at Elon. Jim's seventy two hole total of 297 (74-73-76-74) was five off Loy's final 292. Considering that it was his first G.G.0., and that he has only been in two other big tournaments be fore, Jim did remarkably well. Stephens has also won the con solation championship of the Caro linas Junior Golf Tournament (1960) and came in second in the High Point Enterprise Classic (1962). This finish puts Jim Stephens among the top North Carolina amateurs and makes him a top contender for the Carolinas Con ference Championship at Boone later in May.

"Your REXALL Drug Store" Complete Drug and Fountain Service Show Success in Depth 5-2 record thus far attained is basically due to the fact that Guil ford is taking so many seconds and thirds in dual and triangle meets. There are forty-one out for track. From among this group the coach can always count on at least twenty different boys to do the scoring. Taking a closer look at our present 5-2 mark we find that Guilford has beaten Atlantic Chris tian, Campbell, Pembroke and Elon twice while losing twice to High Point. The two wins against Elon were the first against that school in recent memory. The following is a capsule analysis of where the power lies in each event: High Jump—George Benjamin has jumped 5'11". The school rec ord is 6'l". Before George is through, it just might fall. Charlie White is coming along well. Broad Jump Jack Reynolds and Jim Williams both do about 19 feet. Pole Vault—Harry Gardiner is first man. Charlie Cobb is second. Shot Put Tim Ray tosses it 41'9". Roger Purgason, Tom Barnes and Lawrence Buffaloe have helped Tim sweep this event several times this year. Discus—Ray, Purgason, Buffa loe, John Samuel and John Burns make Guilford hard to beat. Javelin Guilford was weak here but now Tom Barnes, Pete Rickards and Dan Kuzma are pro viding the punch. Hurdles—Jim Allen in both the high and low hurdles. Charlie White in the high and Buddy Dixon in the low. 5 ; ;X :vk Jack Reynolds jumps 20 feet as Walt Gramada runs the mile. Guilford Dow Guilford College combined the four hit pitching of Kendall Buck ner with fourteen hits on April 26 to beat High Point College 21- 1 at the Quakers home field. The Guilford attack was marked by a five run, two out rally in the second inning and a devastating eleven run barrage in the fourth. Pitcher Buckner turned in his best performance of the year as he spread out four singles to limit High Point to a single run in the fourth. The hitters for Guilford were Lee Johnson, two singles and four walks; Elwood Parker, two walks, a single and a double; and Mickey THE GUILFORDI AN 100 Yd. Dash—Bill Canter does it in 10.3 while Jimmy Williams and Dixon go under 10.5. 220 Yd. Dash—Bill Canter. 440 Yd. Dash —Howard Braxton usually gets first, or sure second. 880 Yd. Dash—Dave Klingler, Joe DeVault, both about 2.08. Mile and Two Mile —Walt Gro mada does a good job here. Mile Relay—The team of Kling ler, Joe DeVault, Lawrence Buffa loe and Braxton have touched up on the school record. They're hard to beat. Looking into the future, Guil ford goes to the Conference Meet on May 11. They will probably finish somewhere in the top four with competition from Lenoir Rhyne and High Point. The meet is here in Greensboro. Come on out and support them. We have a shot at the championship. Hank Siegel r 2 Tim Ray ns High Point Faulk, three singles. Back to back homers were hit in the Guilford eighth by Carl Hampton and Buckner. The win for Kendall, who went the full nine innings, makes him 1-2 on the year. Guilford is now 8-6 and 4-4 in conference play. Next fall Guilford will have a Junior Varsity Football Team. Now It's Pepsi— For Those Who Think Young!

Charlie Best should take the javelin with a throw of 170'-180'. A point system has not yet been figured out. There are entry rules though. A section can only enter two contestants in an event. A person may enter as many as three track events and three field events. The most he may enter is a combination of five. Men's Intramurals Softball The standings at mid-season are: American League: Third North 5-1 .833 English 4-1 .800 Second North 3-2 .600 First Nortli 2-4 .333 Yankee Stadium 0-6 .000 National League: New North 6-0 I.(XX) Center 4-1 .800 Second South 2-3 .400 First South 1-5 .200 Third South 1-5 .200 A playoff series will be held, with the top two teams from each division participating. Golf The following four boys have qualified for the final round of in tramural golf. Walter Brown 41-40. 81 Luke Medlin 40-42. 82 Jack Hollev 44-39. 83 Ken Griffith 44-41. 85 Badminton The finals have been played and the champ is Jack Holley. The runner-up is John Lindsay. The doubles champs are Jack Holley and Dave Odom. The run ners-up are Dick Avers and Joe Benson. Golf The 1963 Guilford Golf Team shapes up to be a pretty rough out fit. The team, comprised of Jim Stephens (N. G. State transfer and number two amateur in the GGO), Brinley McDaniel, Lamar Evans (who won eight straight matches), Jim Schlosser, Ike Wrenn, and Steve Joyce is coached by Jerry Steele. The team, with a 7-2-1 record, should be near the top of the Caro linas Conference. Tennis John Lambeth, enjoying his first year as Guilford tennis coach, in herits the shell of the 1962 Tennis Team. Newcomers Dave Parsons, Chip Harrison, Andy Brown, Hank Siegel and Jim Hunt will not be able to fill the spots vacated by Ed die Giles, Brooks Edgerton and Dick Derr. Montie Milner, Steen Spove and Joe Benson are trying their best along with starters Parsons and Harrison to fill the gap but the competition may be too keen. Nevertheless the team finds itself with a three and two league rec ord. GAMES HERE Baseball—Western Carolina (6,7) Track—Frederick College (6). Golf—Elon (6). Tennis—Elon (7). Basketball The final game between Second North and English climaxed a great intramural basketball season. It was the most successful intra mural sport thus far, reaching a total of 214 boys. Third North had 29 boys playing. The most signifi cant factor was that out of a total of 108 games only two were lost on forfeit. The final game was won by Sec ond North 37-33 in overtime be fore a large and highly interested group of spectators.
