I That's the concensus of opinio

Just let me ask one questio
of these people. Are you plae
j ing winning before the physics
development of your children
Can't you help the boys and girl
break the ice and get in the wi
column? Maybe then you wi
want to see all their games.
You would-be sportsmen ough

A REAL TRIP
Four high school boys spec
J the week-end at High Point Col
lege in High Point with Mi
Richards and Mr. Livingston.
Brother and Jack Christian, Ru
dolph Sellers and John O'Danic
left Southport Saturday mornin
and arrived in the city that aftei
noon to witness snow drifts,
fine basketball game and a s.nal
tering of college life. What thei
real impression was can only b
obtained from a conversation wit
them. They saw one of the fir
est teams in the state when Aj
palachian College, defeated Hig
Point. Some say it was the fir
I est they ever saw.
Later in the Season the South
port boys may battle the Hig
Point freshman team. Then thei
experiences can be really terme
as first-hand. The visitors surel
enjoyed the hospitality of so fin
a college as High Point.
AN APOLOGY
The name of R. E. Sellers wa
omitted from our school colum
last week. This fourth grade bo
was among those who had perfet
attendance for the first semeste
"What an unusual pair of sock
