HOCKEY lEAM HAS MADE
A SPLENDID RECORD FOR
FIRST SEASON^S PLAYING
FOUR GAMES ARE PLAYED—ONE
TIED—OTHERS ARE LOST
BY SMALL SCORES
The general opinion is that the
hockey team has had a successful sea
son, even though they did not win
a game. They did however, tie one
and lost the others only by small
margins. It is to be taken into ac
count that most of the schools
which the High Point team op
posed were ones which have had
several years of experience.
The first game was played with
Winston-Salem there and lost by
a score of 2 to 1. On the 13th, the
girls went to Greensboro. There the
day proved an uncluky one for
them, for the final count was 2 to 0
favor of the G. H. S. squad.
The third game is considered the
best of the season. It was played on
the local athletic field with the fast
and experienced team from Win
ston. The fineal score was 0 to 0.
Some superior playing was seen on
both sides and the fray was an
exciting one throughout. Winston
has not been defeated this year and
this was the first time that they
had even been tied.
Although not the equal of the
preceeding game, the one with
Greensboro, here, w s well played.
The visitors won, 3 to 1.
On a whole, local officials and
Miss Wilson, the coach, re well
pleased with the showing made by
the locals. They are looking for
ward to even a better record next
year as only a few of this year s
team will be graduated in June.
PERSONNEL
OF THE HOCKEY TEAM
Gertrude played goal keeper. She
prevented many would-be scores.
High Point will lose a good player
when Anna Gertrude is graduated
next spring.
Elolse Ingram—Eloise was the
smallest player on either ^ High
Point’s team or any opposing team.
However, she made up for her size
in her speed. She is another mem
ber of the team who will be back
next year.
Hazel Scoggins — Hazel is a
sophomore and played goal keeper.
She gave the team the best she had
in the games she played in.
Velva Hayden—The team has
another good player to depend on
for two more years. Velva plays
wing and she’s a good one, too.
Julia Gold Clark—Julia Gold is
the kind of person that every team
should have. She can play almost
any position. She will be back next
year and will surely be an asset to
the team.
Alma Andrews — Alma played
wing in the Winston game although
she was a better halfback than a
wing. We’re expecting great things
from her next year.
Elizabeth Ragan—Lib is another
person the team will surely miss
next year. She also can play any
position. In the Winston game she
played inner and in the Greensboro
game she played fullback.
Virginia Hunt—Virginia is a
senior and a right wing. She played
a steady game the entire season.
—Virginia Hunt.
kicked a goal on a penalty kick.
Winston scored again in the last
half, when with the ball near High
Point’s goal it hit the referee, and
bounced in front of a Winston
player to be kicked for a goal.
High Point was unable to score in
the last quarter although they kept
the ball in Winston’s territory most
of the time.

HOLIDAYS FIND MANY
TEACHERS OUT OF CITY
PIESH FOR GIRLS
L
Helen Osborne, Lib Ragan,
Mayna Allen, Rose Askew, and
Anna Gertrude Douglas Are
Nominated
Dorothy Willis—Dot was the
capable manager of High Point’s
first hockey team. She was always
willing to help the team in any way
she could. We appreciate your
work, Dot.
Bessie Hedrick—Bessie had the
honor of being captain of High
Point’s first hockey team. She
played left inner and could take
the ball down the field faster than
any one seen in action this year.
The team will be depending on
you next year, Bessie.
Edna Mae Clapp—In Edna Mae
the team possessed a real player.
She is a sophomore and played
center forward, one of the most im
portant positions on the team. She
scored the two goals that High
Point made this year.
Thelma Lotts—The team had a
steady player in Thelma Lotts. She
played right halfback and was
always on the job. The team will
have Thelma for two more years.
Carol McKee—Carol was the
only freshman on the team and
played right full back. She was
very instrumental in keeping the
ball from High Point’s goal at
critical times when it seemed that
opponents just would score.
Gladys Farlow—Gladys played
left wing. She played a steady garne
the whole season. The team will
miss her next year.
Rae Smith—Rae played full
back in every game except one. She
was a good fullback; however she
could play halfback just as well.
In Rae, High Point will have an
other capable player for two years
more.
Minnie Bain—Minnie’s position
at center halfback was well filled.
She had one of the hardest positions
in the defense, as she always had
to mark the opposing center for
ward. Minnie is a junior this year.
Rose Askew—Rose Askew, a
junior and an all-around athlete,
played fullback. She played a good
game and we’re looking forward to
having her back again next year.
Dorothy. Smith—Dot, another
junior, was one of the best half
backs on the team. As long as she
could stay on her feet, she was
always after the ball. Let’s watch
Dot next year.

Ladies of Faculty Are Defeated
By Fast-Going Team Monday
Nov. 26tb in Gymnasium
The volley ball season of 1928
ended last week, with the sopho
mores as school champions. The
championship series started Mon
day, November 19th. At this time
the freshman team met the sopho
mores. The sophomores won three
straight games by decisive scores.
This entitled them to play the
winner of the junior-senior games.
On Tuesday the senior-junior game
was played. This game was won by
juniors. On Wednesday afternoon
the sophomores met the juniors.
The sophomores took this game.
Then they challenged the faculty
team. It was decided that this game
should be played on Monday,
November 26, in the gymnasium.
On Monday, members of the
faculty were ready to meet the
sophomores. This proved a real
battle. Miss Albright and Miss
Wofford did their best to spell
victory for the faculty, but in
spite of their efforts the sophomores
won two of the three games played.
In all of the game it could be seen
that the sophomores had a very
strong team, and no one was sur
prised when, on Monday afternoon,
they were declared school cham
pions.

copies in the library are The
Sistene Madonna, Aladonna of
the Chair, The Last Supper, Mona
Lisa, The Blue Boy, Frieze of
Angels, and The Night Watch.
All lovers of good art will find
much enjoyment in these very true
and representative pictures. They
are placed in a manlla cover at
the right of the main door of the
library. In the card index a separ
ate part has been put aside for an
index of the paintings. The index
is in three parts: the school of
painting under which head the
painter comes, the painter, and the
titles of the pictures. This has been
placed in the library for the use
and convenience of the students
and those of the teachers who are
interested in art. They will find the
index very valuable for quick re
search. The seekers of home room
program material will also find
these pictures a solution for at least
one good program.
It is suggested that everyone,
some time while they are m the
library, try to see these pictures

parents an idea of the aims of the
course and the standards required
of the individual pupil. This also
furnished, an opportunity for the
teachers to discuss the work of in
