Both teams were good, but the Twin City boys failed to get to clic^g. The locals threatened to score early in the second quarter, but Winston heTd them and punted out of the dan ger zone. The Winds then began a march down the field featured by Flip” Rees on end runs which result ed in Elmore Holt taking the ball over. The second tally-came in the last period after Fickling and Koury had already taken the ball over from about the 20-yard line, but were called back because of off-sides. Then Goodwin behind almost perfect interference, went over for a touchdown. Holt made the extra point on a line plunge. For the locals Wachter and Gibson, ends, played well. Parker, a center, also played well on the line. In the backfield Cooper,' Holt, and Jenkins played the best ball. Part of Initiation Is Given Hi-Y Members TODAY, FRL, SAT. Nov. 3, 4, 5 JEAN HARLOW CLARK GABLE “RED DUST’^ MON., TUES., WED. Nov. 7, 8, 9 TROUBLE IN PARADISE” Miriam Hopkins Kay Francis Charlie Ruggles At the Leaksville-Greensboro foot ball game the candidates for member ship in the Warner Hi-Y club were having a part of their initiation. The sixteen candidates appeared on the field, diu-ing the half, dressed as girls. They were organized into two teams and a football was given them. They then played a game. During the third quarter the candi dates sat in the stands and cheered as much as possible. The following is a list of new mem bers: Robert Baker, Alvin Ljung, Grant Byerly, Waylon Fickling, J. B. Payne, Howell Overton, Jr.. John Fields, Wade Johnson, Jimmy Bishop, Floyd New, W. E. Benbow, Lyndon Forbis, Edward Douglas, Lewis Ginsberg, Steve Hauer, Harry Hill, Joe Westbrook, Hill Himter, Jr., Robert Simmons, Elmore Holt, and Arthur Cooke. Back Flaws From the Whirlwinds New System of Tackling Dummy. Mr. Belding has put in a new system for the football men who tackle the tackling dummy. He has nailed a 2 by 4 plank about 3 feet from the ground so that when a man tackles the dummy he has to go under the plank. If a player does not hit the dummy low enough he will probably burst his head open. Although the band misses a good trumpeter during the football games, the fans enjoy a good cheer leader in Harry Hill, master of ceremonies at the local games. Harry’s magnificent display of energy and personality, as he and little Bobby Yates caper in front of the stands, helped to keep the crowd in the best of humor, whether our team is winning or not. Many say that although they do not enjoy the games, especially in times of defeat, they always feel that they get a quarter’s worth of entertainment from Harry Hill. Although our midget team is much smaller than our varsity and reserves, it puts up some of the scrappiest and hard-fought games of the three. If this group continues showing up as it has during the first of this season, the varsity can be sure of having a number of A-1 men in a year or so. Tankersley, midget fullback, is one of the flashiest players on the eleven, and has played a steady game the whole time. Hendrix, right halfback, plays a good offensive game in the backfield. Snead and Vinson are ex cellent line players and stand good chances of making the varsity later. Football fans saw the Whirlwinds fight harder for the Charlotte game than for any other battle of the year. The majority of observers were ex pecting the home team to be licked by a large margin, but from the first, Greensboro put up a strong defense. The most exciting play of the game came when Hester, center, faked the ball, surprising the oppenents into momentary inactivity. With apologies to "The All-American Girl,” we present, ladies and gen tlemen, "The All-Carolinian High School Girl,” for your approval! She loves a halfback at Durham high school, She loves a quarterback at G. H. S., She’s got a tackle from Charlotte gridiron, And a Raleigh center guard’s her flame; She has dates with a Reidsville fullback, A Salisbury right end’s giving her a whirl, ■ She has a sweetheart on every high team, She’s just an all-Carolinian girl! Donald "Scratchy” Kennerly, one of Greensboro’s star trackmen of last year, is now viewing Guilford high school through a vari-colored perspective. While playing football this season, he received a black eye. "Scratchy” tells us that those country lads are heavy-hitters. Back Whirlwinds! Let’s all try to be out for the Winston-Salem-G. H. S. game, and see the plays for ourselves and learn the score without having to call up the News or a friend to find out. Come on, G. H. S. students, and let’s give the Purple Whirlwinds a good backing. - , R-a-a-y Team! If everyone who attends the conference tomorrow would make his ap- peaiai.ce at the stadium that afternoon, we would probably have the largest crowd of students who ever attended a G. H. S. football game. Wouldn’t it be great to see everybody in Senior high sitting in the stadium yelling and screaming for the Whirlwinds? Just imagine a picture like that and realize that it can’t be so without your help! Let’s all be there. R-a-a-a-y team! Pittman Plays Well Frank Pittman’s'playing in the Charlotte game deserves special mention. Many times he saved the game by his wonderful'defensive work. Although not very heavy Frank brought down the heavy Reidsville backs with deadly accuracy. Aside from this Frank, made several good runs during the course of the game. He Won It Nobly Recent comments that the student council has a rough-neck president have been heard from those who forget he is on the football team. Even on the stage during announcements footlights won’t conceal Frank Pittman’s purple shiner. In spite of the fact that it was received very gallantly in the Whirlwinds’ recent tilt with Charlotte, wild stories continue to circulate about the ring around President Pittman’s eye. Varsity Doing Best ODELLS The members of the Varsity are doing their level best in the workouts and the games to make Senior high claim the championship title for the Western District. All of the s.tudents of Senior high should attend the games and cheer for the Purple Whirlwinds, helping them on to victory. We’re looking forward to beating Winston-Salem! G. H. S. Licked By 14-0 Score Purple Whirlwinds Spring Sur prise By Holding Charlotte Wildcats as Well as They Did In Recent Game. BILL ELIAS IS THE STAR Runs Sixty Yards on Kick Off; Charlotte Team Too Heavy and Experienced For Whirl winds’ Green, Light Line. Students May Attend Game The students will be allowed to attend the High Point game, provided they have notes and transportation. Everyone who goes will be expected to conduct himself orderly and give the Pointers a good impression of G. H. S. Support our boys by rooting like you have rooted before and watch the Whirlwinds carry off the honors. m VISIT ITHE BOAR AND CASTLE Your Late Evening Lunch—Hot and Cold Drinks SANDWICHES West Market Street Extension The Purple Whirlwinds of Greens boro high school held the Charlotte Wildcats to a 14-0 victory Friday, Oc tober 21, at Greensboro. The invaders were expecting to be heavy winners, but the locals surprised them and in the first of the second half threatened to score. Tliis is the best game the locals have played this season and Coach Belding was well pleased. In the beginning of the second half the Winds dashed in and sprimg their new offense which knocked Charlotte off its feet. The locals were march ing nearer to the goal on every play until Charlotte intercepted a pass. The locals were touchdown bound and might have tied Charlotte if it weren't for the intercepted pass. The Wildcats' first score came In the first quarter after a downed punt on the 50-yard line and a march down the field. Holder took the ball over and Gadd place-kicked the extra point. On the kickoff after Charlotte's sec ond touchdown, Bill Elias, Greensboro's flashy halfback, grabbed the ball and ran down the field sixty yards before being downed. In the second half Helms intercept ed a Greensboro pass and stopped the locals' march down the field. At the end of the third quarter Gadd failed to complete a pass which went over the goal, so Greensboro came into possession of the ball on their own 20-yard line. They failed to gain, so Pittman punted, but the ball bounced off his foot sideways and bounded backward to the locals' 15-yard line. Charlotte tried several runs and fail ed to gain. On the next play Gadd completed a pass to Graves over the goal. Gadd place-kicked the extra point. This was the final score and the' game ended, 14 to 0. Winston Battles Local Girls’ Team For 3-1 Victory Miss Kate Robinson’s Squad Is Clicking But Finds Match In Opponents; Tight Game Is Fought. Miss Kate Robinson's girls' soccer team battled the Winston-Salem squad to a 3 to' 1 finish on the Reynolds high school field Tuesday afternoon, October 25. Although the local girls were de feated, they played a good defensive game. The first- quarter was complet ed with neither team scoring. In the early part of the second quar ter, Mary Nell Stonestreet, captain of the opposing group, made the first goal with a fast play through the goal guard. The third quarter was featured by the playing 6f Margaret Dixson and Helen Cockran, of Winston. Each kicked a goal, leaving the score 3 to 0 in Winston's favor.

WRENN IS THE LINE STAR Lee and Fields Do Excellent Work. Rees Goes in Game in the Last Quarter and Makes Good Showing. Last Friday afternoon the Greens boro high school gridders were defeat ed by Reidsville in a hard fought game at the World War Memorial Stadium. Reidsville hung up their lone tally in the middle of the first period after they had kept the ball from the kick off and had marched the ball down the field to Greensboro's 20-yard line. On the next play J. Stallings whipped a pass to Dickerson, who went over for a touchdown. J. Stallings went through center for the extra point on a place kick. Locals Threatened to Score. After this touchdow’n the locals threatened to score, but Reidsville got the ball and kicked out of danger. The ball was played back and forth In the middle of the field in the second period. The locals got a score when Dickerson completed a pass to Stall ings, who took the ball over, but were called back because of a 15-yard pen alty for roughing. In the last quarter the invaders threatened again when Stallings returned a punt for 60 yards and was headed for a touchdown, but Boren tackled him on the locals' 25- yard line. Reidsville would have scored if they hadn't been penalized 15 yards just before Dickerson com pleted a pass to H. Stallings. Pittman and Boren Best Backfield Pittman and Boren played the best backfield game for the locals. Pitt- .man, local quarterback, was by far the best defensive back on the field; he also played a nice offensive game by featuring in most of the passes, and he punted some also. Boren, a hard running half, did some good playing on the local offensive and featured in some good tackles. Lee and Fields also did some good work. Wrenn was the best- lineman on the field and Reidsville put two men on, but at that he gave them plenty of trouble. Dickerson and Stallmffs Do Well For Reidsville Dickerson and Stall ings did the best playing in the back- fleld while Taylor did their best play ing on the line. Carroll and Terrell, ends, and Hastings, tackle, also did some nice playing on their line. Rees, quarterback, and Lee, back, weren't expected to get in this game, but both of them were sent in and played a good part in the last quarter. Reidsville used only one sub stitute, Roberts, who substituted at halfback and at end. The lineup: Greensboro Pos. • Reidsville Cockman .... le ... . Garrison Gerringer ....
