Both teams played a great game, but Spencer line could not hold the Pointers back. Bryant and Kearns starred for High Point with Hill and Thomas playing a pretty game. Hill kicked the ball to score High Point's only extra point. High Point won the kickoff and Spencer finding they could get nowhere against the stone-like wall of the Pointer line were forced to kick. The teams punted to each other, until near the end of the quarter High Point started rushing the ball up the field, with nice gains from Kearns and Bryant, the ball was placed on Spencer’s fifteen- yard line when the whistle blew, ending the quarter. High Point continued their march toward Spencer’s goal in the second quarter, the change of goals having no effect on the Pointers. Bryant plunged through the line to place the ball within striking distance, and Holcombe carried it over for a touchdown. The extra point failed. High Point started the scoring early in the last quarter, Kearns and Bryant again carrying the ball down the field for Thomas to score a touchdown. Hill made a nice kick to score the extra point. With the ball in their possession Spencer started an aerial attack and com pleted three passes to make a gain of thirty yards. A plunge through center netted ten more yards and Miller was shoved over for the touchdown. The try for extra point failed. Hinkle intercepted a pass and Thomas went through center for fifteen yards, Bryant then circled left end for the touchdown. The extra point failed.

When does a side score? When does the server lose his term? How many players are there? Volley ball consists in keeping a large ball in motion back and forth across a high net by striking it with the open palm. The ball must not be allowed to touch the floor. The object of the game for each party is to keep the ball in lively play toward its opponent’s court. Except for fouls, a side scores only when serving. A good serve unreturned scores one point for the serving side. A point is also scored by the serving side if opponents fail to return a ball that is in play. A foul made by either side scores one point for opponents. A server is out when he falls to place the ball in the opponent’s court after two trials. If his side fails to return the ball to opponents this puts him out. When the server’s side allows the ball to touch the ground, the server loses his turn. Players on a side may serve in rotation, or one person may be chosen as server. Any number of players from two to thirty may play. by the wild strains of music on the last day of every October. It was supposed by many people that Mr. Bartholomew’s ghost was trying to keep people in fear of him even after his body had returned to dust. “The truth was never learned for the next day my father had the piano burned, because he did not want to risk any more visits from the ghost of the vile Mr. Batho- lomen. Never again was anyone troubled by the supernatural visitor. “Although this thing happened many years ago, every Hallowe en brings to my mind that night in 1851, and the events connected with it.” ’Tis only noble to be good. this year. Of that number, the sophomores have the largest en rollment, there being 70 from that class, and 52 from the fresh man. The other two classes, senior and junior, have 18 and 21 re spectively. These are taught sew ing by Miss Morgan for one semr ester, and Mrs. Reese teaches thi- same group cooking for the othes half year. The course is, never theless, unified.

I SOCCER BM WPS GREENSeOSO.ISTOO HSON MIDGEIS LOSE 10 SSEISBORH TO 0 The high school soccer team trampled over the Greensboro lads to run away with a 15 to 0 score. The Greensboro team lacked the experience and coaching of the locals and were hopelessly out played by the fast High Point team. The ball was shoved down the field and a goal made soon after the game started. The Pointers line tore Greensboro’s backfield to pieces and three more goals were scored before the first quarter ended. The Pointers scored four times in the second quarter while the Greensboro team found the High Point backfield impassable and could not place the ball in a scoring position. Most of the scrub team was sent in the second half and they added another score during their quarter. The regulars were sent back in the last quarter and the Greensboro eleven was played off their feet High Point scoring six goals to bring the total up to fifteen.

PRESIDENT CHASE OF UNIVERSITY VISITOR HERE LAST THURSDAY (Concluded from Page 1) prised when told the state rating for scholarship which High Point was given by virtue of the 1928 senior examinations. Dr. Chase said that most of the girls who are students at the Uni versity are either graduates of junior colleges, or students who wish to take post-graduate work. Others intend to specialize in some works such as social service, medi cine, or law. They have the op portunity to do this there, where women students are allowed only in the junior and senior classes. While Dr. Chase was here, he was given two copies of The Pointer, and he commented favor ably on the general make-up, ap pearance, and printing of the paper. He asked several questions relative to these features, and said he would enjoy looking over these Issues. Mr. Johnston, principal, had thought first that it might be ar ranged for Dr. Chase to speak to the student body, but this was found to be impossible. When leaving. Dr. Chase expressed the hope that he might return some day and become better acquainted with the students of the High Point high school. He said that he con sidered them “exceedingly fortun ate in the way they are looked after in the fine building, equip ment, and teachers.” FROM THE OTHER WORLD (Concluded from Page 2) The murderer was never found, but truth to tell, he was never searched for very much, for the murdered man’s decease was a relief rather than otherwise. “The next year the man who had bought his piano was startled at the strains of wild music which came from his music room.
