New Offense Fails
In the week’s practice before the
garni' Coach Bolt Jamieson inau.gurated
a new offense for the basketeers, but
it failed to click against the powerful
opposition. Several of the .squad mem
bers were absent from the holiday
work - outs, and this necessitated a
change in the loctil line-up because of
tbe offense ebange. Gus Pascbal, -\l
Jvoepflc, .Too Coleman, .Tack .Tarvis and
Bob Fondren took the court for the
locals.
Coleman, from Lexington, was tJie
high scorer of the night tall.ving 12
points. .Tones and'Davidson were run
ners up with 10 and 8 points respec-
tivel.v. KiKqifie was the leading point-
getter for the locals with his seven
])oints.

AAAstern conference title the Greens-
horo AA‘hirlwinds travels to Burlington
