A SALUTE TO THE SENIORS
FOOTBALL
Tom Barnes—Tom played little
football as a freshman due to the
fact that he was hampered with
a bad knee. Some even felt that
he would never plav again. He
worked on the knee and became
one of our toughest ends. Tom
was chosen captain in this, his sen
ior yeur. His ability earned him
the Most Valuable Player Award
this vear as well as a Little All
America Honorable Mention. This
year he threw the javelin in track
and came in fourth in that event
at the recent conference meet.
Howard Braxton II o w a r d,
termed a "leader by the coaches,
has participated in three sports in
his four years at Guilford. He has
been one ol our finest trackmen in
recent memory. "Babbit earned
his track fame in the 440, Mile
Belay and recentK the BSO. Lust
yeur Howard was an offensive end
on the Football Team. This vear
lie was switched to a defensive
end. How aid also played Basket
ball for two years.
Bobby O'Daniels —We're really
going to miss Bobbys kicking tal
ents next vear. I lis educated toe
has scored many a field goal and
extra point in his four years ol
football at Guilford. Bob has
played both end and halfback
well. His greatest games were
against East Carolina two years
asjo and Catawba this year. Al
though we lost that East Carolina
game Bob's kicking and catching
rose above all other performances.
In the Catawba game Bob inter
cepted three passes and was, per
haps. the main cause of our vic
tory. This vear Bob was chosen
alternate captain. He also played
two vears on the Baseball Team.
David Wells Wells is a dedi
cated athlete. He has been con
stantly improving since he's been
here. David, this year a starter and
a returning letterman from last
vear, was chosen as co-captain.
He's termed "steady and better
than most at his position of offen
sive tackle.
Ed Williams -Cookie has been
playing football at Guilford for
four years now. Last year be was
given the Best Hustler Award.
Cookie is a leader, a fine, tough
running buck unci the kind of boy
a coach likes to have. This vear

TOM BAMM:S
lie was hampered with injuries
unci did not see much action. He's
another one of those two sport
men. outstanding in truck since his
sophomore yeur.
BASKETBALL
Nobodv Thank God.
BASEBALL
Curl Hampton- For two years
Carl has patrolled Center Field in
great style. In that time few balls
have escaped the defensive ace.
This season he was out for three
weeks with a bad shoulder. One
look at the team's record shows
how much he was missed. Carl
was alternate captain this yeur.
He's a History major who soon
plans to teach.
Mickey Herrin Mickey has
been playing baseball at Guilford
for three years now. As a sopho
more he compiled a great 7-0 rec
ord. Since then injuries have
plagued him and he has never
been able to regain the form he
showed in 1961. Mickey is an Eco
nomies major from Monroe, N. C.
Lee Johnson —Lee came to Guil
ford as a transfer student from
Washington and Lee. He's played
here for three years and during
that time he lias earned a reputa
tion as a superb infielder. Lee com
pletes the trio of injury troubled
Seniors. He missed two weeks of
this season due to mononucleosis.
This year he was chosen as captain
of the Baseball Team. He's a good
all-around plaver who we're cer
tainly going to miss.
OTHER CHADS
In Tennis the number one and
two men, Steen Spove and Montie
Mifner are both leaving for Har
vard to do graduate work. Montie
has been plaving for four years.
He's been called a scrapper and
1 fierce competitor by the coaches,
loining the Hurvard twins- on the
"raduate list is Joe Benson. Many
• ipperclussmen remember the fine
buttles Joe and Steen had last year
•is thev fought for fifth position on
'he team.
Walter Brown is the only gradu
ate of a new Soccer team. As a
starter in this, the team's first year,
Walter won recognition as an out
standing dribbler and offensive!

DAVID NVEI.LS
George Benjamin, Tom Barnes,
Howard Braxton and Ernie Pascal
I are the track graduates. George
high jumped this year and reached
a peak of six feet. In the recent
Garolinas Conference Meet he
tame in third.
Brinley McDaniel is the lone
Golf graduate. This year he was
the team's number two man. He
has played basketball for Guilford.
SUMMARY
Guilford Athletics is fortunate
j in the fact that we are losing so
| few athletes. Fourteen is a small
j number in comparison to the
i amount of rising Seniors we will
' have next year. If we look the situ
ation over more closely, though,
we find we are not as secure as
we think. We are losing a lot of
key players. A tough lineman, a
kicker, a rough end and some great
defense, two great glove men and
a good pitcher, the first three men
OH the tennis team, the number
two man of the golf team, a great
offensive soccer player and a high
jumper are going to be hard to re
place.
The only team that will not
suffer is the basketball crew.
Grads, we're really going to
miss you. No kidding.

Spring Basketball
Jem Steele, Guilford's elated
basketball coach, is proud to an
nounce the great success of his
spring basketball practice. The
constant scrimmages which have
oeen going on for the past few
weeks and the hard work of Coach
Steele have produced some of the
finest prospects Guilford has had
in recent years.
Upperclassmen Buddy Milks, a
two-hand dunker, and Punchy Fer
ris, an aggressive ball handler,
have been practicing with the
team and looking good. Charlie
Black of Greensboro and Chuck
Scott of East Carolina, two new
boys, should help Guilford in the
height department. The new boys
trying out for the backcourt are
Danny Curran, Bill's brother;
James Team, transfer from N. C.
State where he played freshman
ball; and Gary Halpern, a New
York basketball star.
With the way things look now
leople just better look out for
iuilford.
