™letic:
defeated oftlmes by large scores.
This year a large number of
boys are expected to report for
practices. Undoubtedly some ex
cellent material will be available
from these candidates, and High
Point hopes to better last year’s
record by going far in the state
championship series.

Black Bisons Roll Up a Score
of 46 to 0.
The Black Bisons took their
second straight game of the season
here Friday by walloping Asheboro
High to the tune of a 46-0 score.
It was evident from the first that
High Point was playing a superior
brand of ball than their opponents.
High Point won the kickoff and
started the scoring early by taking
advantage of Asheboro’s fumble,
thus gaining possession of the ball.
The teams lined, and with the able
assistance of his teammates, Kearns
star halfback, went through the
line for a touchdown.
Fumbles were made on both sides
but Asheboro was kept on the de
fensive most of the time. There
was no stopping the High Point
Eleven. Time after time they
rushed the ball down the field for
a touchdown.
“Goat” Bryant and Charlie
Kearns starred with three touch
downs apiece, while Homcombe
dashed across the chalk line for one.
Bryant hit the line for two extra
points, Ingram made one, and
Willard received a pass for an
extra point. Hill made a pretty run
for a touchdown but was offside.
The most thrilling spectacle of
the game was in the last half when
Kearns made a fifty-yard dash
around right end for a touchdown.
Toward the last Coach Marlette
sent in most of the sdrub team,
leavine only a few regulars on the
field. '

WRESTLING TO BE ADDED
TO THE HIGH SCHOOL
ATHLETIC PROGRAM
Plans are under way to add a
new form of athletics to the acti
vities of High Point High School,
namely, a wrestling team. Several
schools have requested matches
with H. P. H. S. and it seems that
these schools will have the op
portunity of meeting a local team
in the squared circle.
Many students have shown an
interest in wrestling and have let
it be known that they desired to
come out for the team if wrestling
was added to the athletic program.
If enough boys desire to compete
on the mat, one of the coaches will
probably devote some time to
working a team into shape to meet
Durham, Winston, Greensboro, and
other schools.

Right now is the time for every
girl in the High School to begin
thinking about what branch of
athletics she is going to take part
in. A great many athletes don t
find themselves out until it is too
late. Freshmen, and members of
all other classes, let’s begin today 1
Hockey and volley ball are now
going on. If you don’t like one,
you’ll be sure to like the other.
This is the second year that we
have had hockey in our school.
Since none of the students know
much about the game, all under
classmen have a good chance to
make the team. And we expect
to put out a team this year, too!
With Miss Wilson as our coach,
and with much promising mate
rial, we should have a team that
will compete successfully with
opposing schools. Then there will
be class games for those who find
themselves unable to make the
varsity teams. Much interest is
always created by the inter-class
games. Hockey is the major fall
sport, and anyone who attends as
many as sixty per cent of the prac
tices held will receive twenty points
toward her high school monogram.
The other sport is volley ball.
Misses Henderson, Shipman, Clin-
ard, and Rogers will work with
the students. This is a minor sport.
Consequently, only ten points to
ward a monogram are awarded
anyone attending sixty per cent
of the practices.
Another fall sport that we all
enjoy is hiking. This is one of the
requirements for our monograms.
Let’s begin to hike immediately.
One point is given for each mile
hiked, provided that the student
hikes at least three miles. Only
supervised hikes are counted. Miss
Y ounginer being the superviser.
These sports end about the
middle of November, and then
comes the one big sport of the
year—basket ball. Of course, we
all like basket ball, and we expect
to have a great number out for the
team. This year Miss Henderson
will be coach. She will be assisted
by Misses Wilson and Rogers.
Last year the Freshmen won the
class championship, and this fact
speaks well for a successful team
this year. Monogram points are
awarded for basket ball, also.
In the spring we have baseball
and track. Miss Morton will prob
ably be the track coach. With
several experienced girls and with
much promising new material, we
should break last year’s record.
Miss Wilson will again coach
baseball. Last year we had about
six or seven first-year students on
the team. Freshmen, can you beat
that?
Twenty-six vocational training
instructors. Boy Scout leaders, Y.
M. C. A. boys’ secretaries, and
others in similar work went to
Detroit late in August to attend the
first course in airplane model con
struction ever offered. The course
was given, free of charge, by The
American Boy Magazine, sponsor
of the Airplane Model League of
America. The League, in its one
year of existence, has enrolled
200,000 members and enlisted the
aid of hundreds of manual training
teachers.
Mr. Merrill Hamburg, airplane
model expert, was in charge of the
course, which lasted from August
27 to September 1. The work was
given at the new Jefferson Inter
mediate School, offered by the
Detroit Board of Education through
its interest in promoting model
aviation work. The school has
special equipment suited for the
actual shop work done by the
students.
The football schedule for the
present season is as follows:
Sept. 14.
Sept. 21.

Soccer Practice
Begins This Week
Petty and Davis Will Act As
Coach Hartley’s
Assistants
Soccer began with practice Mon
day, September 24, with Mr.
Hartley as coach. Although soccer
is a minor fall sport, it proved one
of the most popular of all last
year. Mr. Hartley was the coach of
last year’s excellent team. This
year he will have Norman Petty
and Marvin Davis as assistants,
thus enabling each boy who turns
out to have individual attention.
The regular practices will be held
every afternoon after school on the
soccer field.
This is the fourth year of this
interesting game in High Point, and
each year the school is putting out
faster and better teams. Last year
the team made an exceptional
record. Not one scheduled game
was lost. Such teams as Greens
boro, Winston, and Guilford were

unnecessary.
