John Kennedy, freshman south
paw candidate for the mound,
would like to have someone tell
him what “can-o’-corn” means. He
is learning all the baseball slang,
but he can’t get anybody to tell
him what that particular one
means. He still doesn’t be

used to polish up the “horsehide”
when it gets kinda dirty. If the
school doesn’t get the athletic
debt paid soon, they’ll probably be
doing that, John. One way to pay
this debt is for you to win all your
games and in that way draw
paying crowd to the games.

Annual Meeting
Of Conference
Is Held Here
The South Piedmont Athletic
conference held its “nual meeting
at a dinner in the school cafeteria,
April 3.
Several meetings of the confer
ence are held each year in order to
plan sports schedules. The meet
ing Monday night, however was
held to plan the policies and the
athletic program for the coming
year.

Looks like that bunch of pa-
lookas has about sworn off
Wadesboro. They probably woke
me Monday morning with a
in their mouths like hen-
feathers—or was it ants, Jimmy?
Morton still swears he has the
prettiest girl down there. You
should see some of those mushy
letters he gets.
The W. P. A. finally put the
courts in shape for playing, be
lieve it or not. So far there
isn’t any definite schedule for
their opening match with the
team from Wadesboro High next
Tuesday.
Gonna write “Jo-Jo” and tell
lim to hurry and get rid of that
'equinox” thing. If a guy doesn’t
vear sun-glasses, he goes almost
color blind with old “sol” darting
in and out from behind the clouds
every few minutes.
It just simply won’t do for
Bill Furr to move down here on
Fourth street. He’s too close,
and I don’t mean to the school-
house. Furr says he kinda hates
to leave the place he lives in
now. 1 don’t blame him. Look
Buck says since hog killing time
s over and his pet “porky” has al
ready been sliced, he can sit back
and relax and eat ham and eggs,
chew fatback and smoke cigarette
ducks. Guess he will start spring
cleaning some day soon. Says he’s
afraid to wash his hair, ’cause he
n’t ever tell when it’s gonna rain
shine while this “equinox” thing
hit on the head with a foul ball
(you hope); then you will have
something to laugh about.
Spring Football
Practices Begun
The first official spring football
practice, sponsored by the school,
began March 28. About sixteen
boys have reported for practice.

the Bulldogs through a workout

positions on the team next fall are
