The season just closing lias been the most successful season our team has ever hod. Each and every match in each of the meets against college tcams proved to be interesting from the ref eree’s go to the timer’s last whistle. Those matches ending in falls were within very few seconds of full, tins matches; and although the points ac tually won by our team were few, the , points lost were dearly' bought, and i hard earned points by the opponents. [ The men who made the team this sen i son will be awarded monograms end i solid gold medals. A vuudcviHe show | will be given by home talent to defray i the expenses of these medals and t monograms. Those men who have , wrestled three main matches will be i entitled to these awards. We have ' always enjoyed our matches with Car i olina', Davidson, and Trinity; and i next year we have accepted matches \ with Gnilford. This will bring our i schedule up to overflowing with good ‘ meets for the next season. 'Our team-mates were faithful in training and attendance to all class es; and they have not only had the i honor of meeting the best teams, and' in making an excellent, showing, but ! they have built up bodies thrit will Serve them well into ripe old age if ' care of half as well as they have , taken care of them during the past six months. RELIGIOUS SURVEY. ► Under the auspices of the Minis | terial Association and the Y a com [ piete survey of the religions life of 1 the entire city has been started.

To the residents of the city we ask that .Von meet the worsts with a smile and give the information freely.

This has been a most hectic season for our "Y” team; .but in spite of the continual losing streak the men have enjoyed good games with the very best teams the State has to produce. The many trips were enjoyed; and the pleasant comradeship of good clean players making up out- team has jmeant more to us than many wins with ungentlemanly players. Some of the teams played this year are: Charlotte “Y” at Charlotte and also at Concord; Salisbury “Y” three games; Proximity “Y” two games; Lenoir-Rhyne College, two games; High Point “Y” two; Davidson Col lege Varsity two; Kannapolis “Y” two. Next season we will have several college men with our team; and as some of these men have made good with college varsity teams, we see no reason why we shouldn't turn out one winning team for a change, 'the past three years have been very much los ing years for its, .put we have put up some fine gumes against great odds in the best to be found to play against. This has helped us to learn a few (mints, and was better to have play ed these and lose than to play weaker teams and win, Here’s to looking forward for one of the ranking teams in the State next year with plenty of new material in sight.
