I The sound at hard dribbling and
1 pounding feet are echoing at' the
| Hiwassee Dam School gymnasium
I as the basketball team there be
comes the first in the area to start
practice.
And a half-court practice session
showed the Hiwassee boys will be
the team to watch this season.
They are well polished as far as
ball handling and footwork is con
cerned.
A few goal tries were missed
that should have been rung up.
But the few remaining wrinkles
will be ironed out before the sea
son starts, Coach W. Grady An
derson said.
"'There is no reason why these
[ boys shouldn't be among the lead
ers this season,' the coach added.
He does feel, however, that the
I team members ar not up to par as
I far as being in condition is con
I cerned.
The Hiwassee team will see all
its fir.. string players back except
Center Floyd, who graduated. Den
nis Bruce, 6 feet-two inches tall,
will take first string center slot,
replacing Floyd.
Forwards will be Loy Williams,
five, ten, and Earnest Reeoe, five,
eleven; guards will be Wayne Pat
terson, five, ten and Oscar J West,
five, seven.
This rather short team should
be able to make up with speed
what it lacks in altitude.
First rate substitutes who look
as though they will ~ee plenty o'
action this season are Kenneth
Reece. Maynard Styles, both for
wards. and Jimmy West, guard.
The boys have been practicing
for about two weeks and Coach
Anderson said he is looking for
ward to his first full practice
game
"Only after that practice game,"
he said, "will we be able to tell
what we really have"
