May 30, 1941 GOLDSBORO HI NEWS PAGE THREE HEDOP lUCKE As this year comes to an end, I feel that I cannot close it success fully without thanking those that have made this sports page possible. Those to whom I’m referring are Mr. Henry Belk, Billy Whitted, Charles Bond, who is now with the Burlington paper, all of the News- Argus staff, and all of the members of the various athletic teams during this past school year. Just thanks! Below are the final baseball re sults and although the Quakes did not do so well, they had a scrapping ball club. Brinkley Taylor and Clyde King were the mainstays during the season.
