Speaking
Of Golf
By JOE MAPLES
Very little golfing see mi to
be going oa among local play
ers these days as little or no
reports have been heard about
any outstanding feats on any
of the newby courses. Of course
th# weather hasn't been the
best as of late and that possibly
aoeounts for most of the lack
of activity.
The Wilkesboro area golfers
seem to be playing every
cljance they get however as
BUI Greene reports some fifty
players this past Saturday. Not
bad for a rather cold day. Bill
suggested that some of us come
down on Wednesday or Satur
day as it seems they have some
rather interesting matches
dpwn there en those two days,
weather permitting.
Work on Oakwoods new nine
holes has slowed somewhat as
a result of t(ie weather but they
expect to get the plans for
their new greens shortly and
things will probably pick up
again in the very near future.
Most of the clearing has boen
done on the new fairways and
some tees have been built, so
they should have an eighteen
hole course to play on by late
summer.

It was interesting to learn
that the state of North Caro
lina will have three men re
presenting it for the 1863 Walk
er Cup matchcs. Richard Tufts
of Pinehurst, former President
of the United States Golf As
sociation has been named "non
playing" Captain, while, Billy
Joe Patton and Charlie Smith
were named to the team itself.
A fine honor for two great golf
ers and fine gentlemen. With
these two on the team, the
United States can depend on
being very ably represented
against the best amateur golf
ers from Great Britain.
It is very gratifying to learn
that Mr. Charlie Wilcox will be
getting out of the hospital this
week. He has been recovering
from ? rather serious illness
but is getting along fine now
and expects to be back on the
job in about a month. Mr.
Charlie, though not one of our
better golfers, is certainly one
of our moat enthusastic ones
and be expects to be back play
ing again this summer. This
will be very good news to his
playing partner, Grady Farth
ing, I'm sure.
Devils, DevilettesTake
Pair F rom Cove Creek
By RONNIE HUNT
The Appalachian High Blue
Devilettes notched their third
victory of the season with a
39-27 decision over the Raider
ettes of Cove Creek on Tues
day night, Jan. 29, at Cove
Creek.
The Devilettes were in com
mand from the opening tap and
were outscored in only one
quarter, the third. This was the
most impressive game played
by the Devilettes thus far. Glen
da Austin led all scorers with
MS points. Carolyn Tatum and
Gloria Storie also scored 10 and
9 points respectively for the
winner*.

Boys Game
After spotting Cove Creek'*
10-0 lead early in the game, the
Appalachian High Blue Devils
stormed back to wallop the
Cove Creek Red Raiders by the
score of 71-45. After falling be
hind in the early stages, the
Devils started pressing the
Raiders and by forcing them
into mistakes, were able to pull
to within one point after the
first quarter of play. In the
second quarter, the Blue Devils
overwhelmed their opponents
25-7 to take a 17 point lead. An
amusing incident occurred late
in the frist half when Robert
Matheson "blocked" an at
tempted pass by Dale Adams
into the Cove Creek goal for
the only field goal made by the
Raiders in the entire second
quarter. Besides the two "gift"
points, Matheson scored 16
points for the Devils, second
only to the 23 point total of
Tommy Taylor. Ronnie Hunt
had eight points and Bob Wil
son and Jimmy Hayes seven
each for Appalachian Gary
Isaacs led Cove Creek with 15
