Hams the Armstrong point-getter,
was limited to five points in the
first and one point in the second
half. Porker of Huntington was
second in scoring with 6 points.
Rocky Mount snowed under Plato
Price with a 53-22 scote to advance
to the finals. Harrison showed the
way wit h2.’i points — enough to
win the game. He was followed by
Worsley with 14. Erwin was best
for Price with 8 poinls.
ALL-TOURNAMENT TEAM
SELECTED
Gold basketballs were presented
to five boys whose skill had stood
them out above all others in tour
nament play. They were: Branche,
'Maggie Walker); Harrison, (Rocky
Mount); T. Williams fArmstrong';
Parker Huntington': and Worsely
fRocky Mount).
MOST VALIABLE PLAYER
AWARD TO ROCKY MOUNT’S
HARRISON
The award lor the most valuable
player to his team went to Harri*
son, center, and main spring ol the
ocky Mount team. He was a tower
of strength on defense-operating ef
fectively on both backboards —
and his set shots gave the defense
trouble at all times. Aggressive, un-
milled, accurate and enduring, bis
play was a prime factor in the ad
vance ol his team to the finals aed
to the championship.
BOUQUETS TO HOSTESSES
OF WINNING TEAMS
Beautiful bouquets of mixed flow
ers were pr.secn(cd to Miss Rebecca
Houston, a freshman from ►Greens
boro, and to Miss Atha Lennon,
sophomore from Duquesne, Pa. —
hostesses of the Rocky Mount team.
