We know him as a prin
cipal, father, teacher in
both public and Sunday
School,and a leader in the
community; but some of us
know him best as our coach.
He came to Bailey from
Castalia High School where
he served there as prin
cipal and coach.
A graduate of Atlantic
Christian College and now
taking his post graduate
work at the University of
North Carolina, he has
served as principal and
teacher in public schools.
As a coach he has given a
large part of his time to
the development of both
girls’ and boys* basket
ball teams and the base
ball team, A familiar
statement that he stresses
most of all in these
sports is "VJhen that last
great scorer comes to
wite against your name,
he writes not that you
won or lost, but how
played the game,
Each player on the teams
thinks of him as a • real
friend and a person from
whom advice may be ob
tained.

As a form of recreation
at ' ‘ ‘ u
study hall, the girls are
often seen playing soft
ball, Rumors of a softball
team have been floating
around.Girls, what can you
do about that?
Pupils are permitted only
one study hall per week to
practice baseball or soft
ball, As a result of this
rule, the teachers think
;;rades will become higherr
If anyone violates the
rule, he forfeits his
right to practice during
stu.dy hall,
Sovoral of tho boys and
girls on tho basketball
teams have ordered group
pictures, costing Cl each,
