POINTERS DOWN THREE STRONG TEAMS
BLACK BISONS DEFEAT
THE WINSTON BASKETBALL
TEAM IN A CLOSE GAME
Coach iTarlette’s basketeers took
a hard fought game from Winston
Friday night by a 28 to 23 score.
The game was close all the way
through with neither team being
able to get very far ahead. In the
first half Winston played a fast
game, with a swift passing attack
and guarding that left them in the
lead at the end of the first half by
16 to 14.
The Black Blsons came back in
the last half and outplayed the
Winston quintet to win by a 28 to
23 score. Kearns played a stellar
game at left guard and scored
five points. Willard and Johnson
were high scorers for High Point,
Willard making ten and Johnson
scoring nine. Weaver, Winston’s
star center, played a flashy game,
scoring eight of Winston’s points.

LOCAL TOSSERS DEFEAT
STRONG REIDSVILLE TEAM
Locals Take Lead Early in the
Game—Startle Reidsville With
Speed and Accurate Shooting
The girls’ basketball team added
another victory Friday night by
defeating the strong Reidsville
team by the score of 44 to 20. The
game was one of the best games
seen here this year, being marred
only by frequent fouls. Both teams
went into the game with the de
termination to take home a vic
tory, and consequently it was a
very hard fought game. The ex
cellent passing and accurate shoot
ing of the High Pointers startled
the visitors from the start, and at
no time were they in danger. At
the end of the first half High Point
was leading by the score of 28 to 14.
The Reidsville lassies came back
in the second half determined to
take the game. The locals retained
their fighting spirit and it was hard
for the visitors to get the ball in
their territory. The local guards
played a good defensive game and
the forwards had no trouble in
finding the basket. The Reidsville
girls displayed good teamwork;
however, they could not equal the
locals in either speed or shooting.
Maud Hamil was the star forward
for High Point. She made a total
of 29 points. White and Wills each
made 7 points for Reidsville.

to 25 victory over the Reidsville
quint for their third win of the

toM am W

Point’s goals, Willard scoring
twelve points, while Johnson scored
ten. Smoak substituting for Smith
scored six. Ware starred for Reids
