JOHNNY COOK AND BOYCE BROWN
Myers Park Team Called
The One To Beat By AHS
By DALE GADDY
H seems that the "dread"
word amoog members of this
year's Appalachian High School
grapplers is "Myers Park." Al
most unanimously the Blue
Devils are saying that the
Charlotte squad Is the team to
heat.
Johnny Cook and Boyce
Brown echo the threat posed by
the Charlotteans, but neither
wrestler has conceeded the
match. (The AH&Myers Park
match is scheduled for Febru
ary 9.) "Well give them a good,
close match," Cook said.
"II we lose- a match this sea
son ? and I doubt that we will ?
It will be to Myers Park," he
continued.
"They're a strong team,"
Brown interjected. "But We can
take them"
The two seniors are confident
Wul iivl cwiy, ffpHHTlauC l/tl I

back. *
An honor student at Appala
chian High, Co hk is the son of
Mr. and Mrs. Jack Cook of
Route 4, Boone. Standing 9'6"
tall, the & lightly built mi t man
weighs 133 pounds. >. ? ,
Last year, wrestling ^?t Hgr
127 pound flass, Cook racked
up a 5-3 record in regular sea
ion competition. This year,
moving up to the 133 weight
division, he has added two more
wins to his overall record.
In addition to wrestling, Cook
i* active in the National Honor
Society and Social Dance Club.
Three years ago he played base
ball for the high schoolers.
Cook has a sister younger
than he.
The light-haired athlete is in
his fourth season of wrestling
for the Blue Devils.
Brown, undefeated in compe
tition this season, is the young
eft of five children born to Mr.
and Mr*. -F. J. Brown of Route
8, Boone. A husky football half
back, he stands 9'9" and weigh*
between 190 and 1SS pounds.
Wrestling at the 130 pound
diviiion last year, Brown now
holds a top birth in the 138
class this year.
Brown it a third-year letter
man with the AHS team. He be
longs to the Social Daace Club
at the local school and like* to
fish and hunt "in my spare
time."
With three older brothers
who wreetled at AHS before
him, Brown isn't letting his un
blemished mat record go to hi*
head. "I haven't done so well
in state tournaments? not Mar
ly ae good aa Uwy (hi* broth
er*) did."
Bill Brown, who was gradu
ated in 1938, was a state
champion in high school and
was an AAU champion wrestler
for the Mountaineers of Appa
lachian State Teachers College.
Dick Brown also was a state
champ while at AHS. Jim main
tained a relatively good record
for the high school jgapplers
to "his graduation ten
years ago.
Both Cook and Brown have
their eye* set on attending col
lege. Cook is heading for ASTC
where be hopes to wrestle and
major in chemistry. Eventually,
he says, he wishes to teach and
coach.
Brown also wants to attend
ASTC but is dubious about be
ginning a college wrestling
career.
As for the Myers Park match,
well, who can say? But come
February S, at leaat two young
sportsmen will be giving all
their energies for the AHS
cause.

App Wrestlers Will
Face 2 Foes Saturday
Confident after two wins <
against Tennessee matmen last
week, the Appalachian Moun
taineers are readying them
selves for ? double-header Sat
urday night with Virginia Mili
tary Institute and with St. An
drews Presbyterian College.
The meets will be staged at
the local campus gymnasium.
The App grappiers face VMI at
7 p. m. and St. Andrews at 8:30.
"Some of our boys might
have to wrestle in both meets,"
Coach Dutch Mayer told the
Democrat this week. A double
header wrestling card is a new
venture for the Boone team,
Meyer stated.
VMI, billed aa one of the
strongest teams the ASTC
wrestlers will encounter this
season, has some of the top
wrestlers in the South, the
Boone coach said. "It'll be a
good match," Meyer predicted.
"And the St. Andrews team will
be hard to handle," he quickly
added.
Hampered by the loss of Ed
Winterstein who suffered a
broken foot in a recent practice
session, the App squad traveled
to Carson-Newman laat week
and wa^ii|ffl)rjt^ 33-2
