Page Four THE PILOT January 81, 1957 FROM THE SPORTS DESK By Dillard Morrow Sports Editor Here we are back with news and views from the world of sports. Many basketball games have gone through the hoop since our last edition, and many stars have been born. The talk is that the Bulldogs own two of the shortest guards in the conference: Dean Bridges and T. L Sain. Sain is currently leading the sco’-ing parade with 11 points per game. u=an has thrilled the local fans with his outside shots and his skill ful lay ups. What’s this about Dean climbing up on the roof of a dorm at Wingate to see if he could see No. Three School on the horizon? Floyd Wright, another sparkp'ug on the hardwood five, is secoi'.d in the scOTing column with 8.75 points per game. Luck to you Waco, keep those guns popping. Reid Armstrong, a talented for ward frc»n Stanley, had been doing all right for himself from his for ward position as he is averaging 7.9 points per game. Buzz Biggerstaff i the tall boys on th the starting five points per game. Before leaving you sports minded people, let me get in a word about supporting our teams. Let’s be in terested in the Bulldogs; I know it would help the guys to know you are behind them. Let’s make it a point to be at our home games. In journalism we have been taught to quit writing when we have said what we wanted to say, so I quit. . . Some of those who squawk loud est about having to wait in line in the doctor’s office are the same people who ignore sick call hours. If we would pay more attention to the specified hours for going to the clinic we might get more rapid treatment once we get there. Gardner-Webb 56 Wingate 85 The Wingate Bulldogs swamped the quintet from Gardner-Webb January 10, by the score of 85-B6. In their first appearance after the Holidays, the “Baptist” boys were off in their shots and play-making. Buzz Biggerstaff racked up 16 points for the Bulldogs, while Win- free hit for 16 for Wingate.

Coached by Mrs. Hester Haynes, the Gardner-Webb Lassies have chalked up ten straight victories without a defeat. The lassies are sparked by Patsy Greene, a hook shooting forward, who has rung up 259 points in nine games for an average of 28.8 points per game. Also, leading the lassies at forward are Betty Bridges, Shel- ba Reid, Maxine Gardner. The start ing guards are Janice Cabiness, Catherine Millerf Prances Causby, and Pat Trantham. The Bulldog lasfies downed Win gate Monday night, January 21, by the score of 44 to 40. This game was by far the stiffest competition yet for the team. The Bulldog Lassies traveled to Lees McRae Saturday night, Jan uary 26, with the boys varsity team. No infoi'mation is available on the Lees McRae girls, but this game should prove to be a supreme test for the high flying Lassies. PLATTER CHATTER ROBERT DICKEY Here we are again kats with a review of some of the hits of ’56. Last winter the tourists were drop ping their nickles to “Memories are Made of This” by Dean Martin and “Rock and Roll Waltz” by Kay Starr. Les Baxter cut quite a few discs of “Poor People of Paris” about the same time. ’The always great Platters sure made the cooliest flip with the great “My Prayer.” “Moon- glow” really sold when the pic ‘Picnic’ came to town. Some of *he slower kats are still spinning “Heart break Hotel” and “Don’t be Cruel” by Elvis. Gogi-Grant really came through with "The Wajrward Wind.” Tex Ritter also had it out for the We get reports from Moscow on a few of their top platters. “Friend ly Persecution”, “Pufh Mama Under The Train”, and “Red Moon.” By now everyone has noticed that the juke box at the Shop has made a swap, and it isn’t to the better. There wHl be no more nickles in it, now there will be only dimes and quarters if it plays. It was brought to my attention that if no one plays the juke box the music company would have to change back to five cents per record. “Banana Boat Song” by the Ter riers is among the coolest with the “G. W.” chicks. To those who didn’t get those quality points we would like to dedicate “Gonna Get Along Without You” and that orTe isn’t by Patience and Prudence. Better cut a trail for now, Cool it. Bridges .—■—21 Sherman 5 With the new swimming pool al most finished and construction be ginning on the new physical educa tion building, it looks like the fresh men will have a new gym to use next year after all. Pity us poor sophomores, for it looks like we will be alumni by the time the gym is finished; at least we hope to be. CLEVELAND HARDWARE COMPANY Shelby, N. C. We understand “Puffy” Moseley, our chemistry professor’s canine friend, has now enrolled for his sixteenth course in chemistry. This should be proof beyond doubt that anybody taking chemistry leads a dog’s life. “Get That Wool Cut” at WALLACE'S BARBER SHOP Closed Mondays 7:00 A.M.—6:00 P.M.

A double elimination tournament was played with eight teams participating. The tournament narrowed down until on the last day Decker Hall Second West and Huggins Curtis North met in three exciting games. Hug gins (Sutis proceded to take two out of the three from the clutches of Second "west. Each player on the wirming team received medals for his efforts. ' Basketball got under way wilh a bang.
