The basket-ball team is winning
its share of games now, as was
predicted at the first of the sea
son. When the
team plays on a
small court like
the one they
practice on, they
go just like a
house on fire; but
I when they get
Ion one of any size
Mt is harder for
them to find the hoop. Before
the season is over, however, it is
believed that the Brevard boys
will be a thorn in the side of their
contestants in any of the games
that they may play.
Just a little reminder: We play
the Mars Hill team next Tuesday
night up at the Brevard High
School gymnasium, and from all
reports it seems there will be a
good crowd on hand to welcome
the Baptists and to cheer our own
team on to victory.
Since the team has been re
organized, it appears that the
changes have helped and that the
team is now playing more con
sistent basket-ball than it has
played this season so far.
Captain Rogers is leading the
scoring at present with fifty-
three points, while Hyatt and
Stubbs are following with forty
points each.
Members of the squad and
points scored for the season:
Rogers, Captain - - 53
Stubbs 40 Hyatt 40
Kiger 29 De Shaw 21
Cauble 13 Speas 7
Edwards 4 Tweed, S. 2
This is taken from the official
scorer’s book.
Brevard Tornado
Trounces Biltmore
Coach Rarsfon’s Golden Tor
nado hung up another victory in
its basket-ball campaign last Sat
urday night in d -fi atiup a strong
Biltmore College lern. by a mar
gin of two pojnts,, which were
racked up in an exira period of
play. This is the only contest
this season that the Rarscn men
have had to play an extra period
to determine tlie winn* r.
Coach Bobby Hipps’ Bulldogs
were as powerful as was expect
ed, and they displayed some of
the fastest playing the Tornado,
has experienced this year. Kiger
and Stubbs were outstanding for
the locals, Stubbs scoring twelve
points to be high scorer for the
evening for either tefm, and
Kiger starring in the final min
utes of play to rack up three fr^e
shots to account for the dtsirtd
margin of victory.
Herman was outstanding in
the Bulldogs’ lineup, with five
field goals and one free goa
for a total of eleven points to his
credit.
Tornado Expects
Eusy Week
Comment is being heard over
the campus that the two literary
societies are going to have a
basket-ball game, but when and
where? This department has
checked up on these reports and
can get no satisfaction as to the
date of this contest. The answer
may be at any time when you are
not expecting it. This will create
a good bit of excitement, and
more students will have an in
terest in this game than any
other on the schedule this year.
Start talking and let’s have this
game soon.
Coach Ranson told about an
interesting sports contest the
other night that
Faculty Versus
Varsity
Coach Ranson and his com
rades who compose the male
faculty members of the Brevard
College staff will play the Col
lege team here February 19 at
the high school gymnasium.
Coach and Mr. Bennett will
lead the faculty, with Deans
Buckner and Andrew ’ filling' in
gaps. Mr. Bennett is the main
stay of the faculty liiieup. In
college at Wofford he useS to be
a center who could really find the
hoop. Coach himself should
give his own team a nice time
trying to hold him back.
The receipts from this game
will go to pay for sweaters for
the lettermen on the basket-ball
team this season. This game
will be very good, for the laughs
alone. The admission for the
contest will be twenty cents to
everyone.
Cigarettes offers several new
watches daily to the people who
will send in the best sport ques
tion for the week. The.watches
are valued at sixty dollars. This
you smokers j might be worth trying f o r
might get in on. Twenty Grand'what?
Coach Arthur J. Ranson’s
Golden Tornado will be excep-i
tionally busy for the next week;
when they meet the Mars Hill
Lions and the Erskine Froshi
here in Brevard.
The Lions will be the first op
ponents that the Tornado will
rrteet, on Tuesday; and on Thurs
day l he Brevard team will en
counter the strong Erskine Frosh
Quint from Due West, South
Carolina.
In the previous games wheii
the Tornado met these opponents
they w. re defeated, in the Mars
Hill game by a wide margin and
by a closer one in the initial con
test of the season with the Ers
kine cagers.
The Tornado will be in fin®
shape for these two games after
prepping continually for the con
test for the Lions for the past
week.
The probable starting* lineup
for the contest Tuesday evening
will be as follows:
Brcvard Mars Hill
Rogers F. Roberts
Kiger F. Chatman
Stubbs C. Cowan
Hyatt G.; Brantley
De Shaw G. Alexander

lina. Howard said he would
handle messages between Char
lotte and Brevard for the stu
dents free of charge, with the un
derstanding that he will be under
no obligations except to try his
best to get the message through.
Don’t write; “radio,” because it
will be much quicker.
Hiram Adkins puts part of the
boys in Ross Hall to sleep each
night- hypnotism is the answer.
John Maugans is the new as
sistant dean at Ross Hall. Don’t
worry, Sarah; maybe he won’t
get grey-headed.
Sam Powell has a crush on a
girl back in Polk County by the
name of Kate. Sam won’t even
talk to the “Biddies.”
A cyclone from across-the hall
struck A. T. Nash’s room Tues
