Page 4 THE FULL MOON March 13, 1953 Bulldog Barks Charles McMcmus. James Gibson ATHLETES OF THE MONTH This month the Full Moon is proud to sodute onother pair of outstanding A. H. S. athletes. These students hove done o good job and have contributed a great deal to the school activity program. OUR HATS ARE OFF TO “YA". BARBARA HUMETCUTT If you have seen any of the girls’ basketball games this sea son, you probably have seen Barbara Huneycutt doing her part to bring victory to the Bulldogs, Barbara, who is a guard on the basketball team, has been play ing two years for the Bulldogs. She also has played junior “Y” basketball for two years. Barbara is active in the intra-mural sports in our school. Her chief interest seems to be found at Pfeiffer College, which is Joe Frank Harris. It seems that fried chicken and strawberry short cake top her list of fine foods. CLAYTON MAULDIN Clayton Mauldin is another of our outstanding athletes. Clay ton is a well liked person and has done a lot to make the Bull dogs’ season a success. They have a record of nine victories and three defeats. Clayton played an important role in this success. He stands 6 ft. 1 in. and fills the position as a forward. He has an average of 12 points per game. Even though Clayton plays only one sport, he has shown that he is one of the best in his field. We feel sure that he will be greatly missed and will be hard to replace. Thanks a lot for the fine sportsmanship and clean entertain ment you have shown us. We feel sure that these two very fine students have learned tlie lesson of fine play and that they will find their goal in life. WINDING UP BASKETBALL At the close of each sporting season it is the old policy of your sport editors to give proper credit to the teams that carried Albemarle high school forward in the world of sports. This season both teams had a good record. The boys’ team ended up in the fifth slot of the South Piedmont Conference. The boys almost got into the tournament this year. Each day of practice the teams put out a great effort to in crease their paying ability. Of course, they had to give up some other pleasures to make room for basketball. Although A. H. S. produced no championship team, we main tained an excellent record in the art of sportsmanship. The teams have promoted a sportsmanship and co-operation which cannot be overlooked, and these factors have created a greater interest in the game by the student body and the teachers. “What would we do without them”? That is the question that is in the minds of all sports loving people. Yes, it is the man agers and the cheerleaders. They cannot be ignored because they have been a vital part of our basketball program. We are giving a big salute to coaches: Mr. Benton, Mr. Robi nette, and Miss Schell; the managers: Barbara Lowder and “Wheaties” Richardson; and the cheerleaders, who have done a fine job in supporting the team this year. They are: Chief, Martha Rae Harris, Mona Rae Crotts, Marilyn Greene, Margaret Brunson, Lydia Hall, Ellen Palmer, Elaine Mills, and Jerry Vismore. Last, but not least, the players. T. & T.
