The Nightmares blasted the home girls, 25 to 17, while the boys were pushed to the limit to edge the northsiders, 34 to 31. Dana Gilliam, sophomore for ward, was the big gun in the first game as she rang the bell for 11 points. The outcome was never in doubt from the opening whistle. McDougle, Fortune, and Burnette held the losers in check, and most of their points were made against the second and third string guards. The Darkhorses were not so for tunate and were forced to drive ' from behind in the closing minutes to win. With the score tied and only 20 seconds to go, Swayn gim pushed in a free throw for a one point margin. A second later Capps hit a fielder that cinched the victory. Lineups and scores: Blk Mtn.

Orphanage Wins Over Montreat High School The girls from the Mountain Orphanage, under the direction of Harry Barkley, handed Sue Burn ey’s Montreat High school girls a. 34 to 27 defeat Monday afternoon on the winners’ floor before a large crowd. Both coaches substituted freely during the contest. Led by Cooper, flashy forward who flipped in 22 points during the day, the Orphanage six took an early lead and were never headed. They owned a 22-12 margin at halftime but some expert shoot ing by Hoffman for the Mon treaters narrowed the gap near the close of the game. Packett played well forthe Orphanage. Fine sports manship on the part of both teams and the spectators was an out standing feature of the game.
