November 28, 1947 Two for Teague _sx w3t. , i|f - V ■ m. mt i§ A HBL ifl W \ Coach Eddie Teague takes time out from field duties to give a bit of dope to guard John Hanzel and setback Phil Feeney. Coach Teague is therecepient of The Guilfordians orchids for this week by virtue of his revival of intramural activities that were fast approaching the obituary stage. Basketball Season Slated For Opening on Tuesday The Guilford College cagers have been under going serious and stren uous practice drills for the past four weeks in preparation for their opeuing tilt on December 2 against the Chatham Mills Blanketeers. Under the tutorage of Coach Paul Lentz, the squad is rapidly being whipped into top notch shape, and it should prove to be quite a strong match for the semi-pro outfit when they come to Guilford. Coach Lentz has been ably assist ed this year by Hal Grossman, Greensboro Patriot inflelder, and former member of the West Virginia basketball quintet. Among the men whom Lentz apparently seems to be building up for the varsity squad are several former players from the Greensboro Whirlwind's highly suc cessful five of last season. These boys are Rick Ferrell, Horton High fill, and Tommy Grubb. However Lentz will apparently be depending heavily on lettermen from last years' squad, such as Jace Ralls at guard, Jack Chatham, Jimmy Mann, and Dick Hall, all fowards. Garland Rakestraw has been alternating in the foward spot from time to time. Herb Schoellkopf, A 1 I'oggioli, and Jack Arzonfco also are scrapping for guard positions. Joe Coleman and Jack Elkin have been working the center position; Elkin saw quite a bit of action at Greensboro High a few years back, and played a con siderable amount of ball in the ser vice. The close of the football sea son should also bring out such veteran lettermen as Bunk Leonard and Rrooks Hansard, as well as several other newcomers. Conference Games On Tap Though the final schedule has not yet been made, the Quakers will take on twelve Conference opponents, and other state competi tion such as the MeCrary Eagles and tlie Chatham Blnnketeers.

Coach Lentz believes that with the possible exception of Elon and WCTC, both who have lost their key men, North State competition should be as strong, if not stronger than last year. When asked for a prediction concerning the success of the coming season he skillfully avoided committing himself by fol lowing Carl' Snaverly's "No com ment" strategy, when the latter was asked to say a few words about his football team's victory over Duke I last Saturday. Guilford's coach also stated that there would be a Junior Varsity squad formed which would engage local high school and "Y" teams from time to time.

Coach league Plans Intramural Games One of the latest anil valuable additions to the college teaching staff is Coach Eddie Teague. As assistant director of Physical Edu cation he has been ably handling the job as backfleld coach of the football team as well as his duties of teaching two physical education courses and a gym class. He has been director of the present tag football intramural league and has planned an ambitious program for the rest of the year. He hopes to include in this; tumbling, boxing, wresting, and soccer in addition to the regular sports of basketball, volleyball and Softball. Coach Teague's experience and training in Physical Education work has been quite extensive. As a mem ber of the Eastern High football team of Washington, D. (3., his home town, he made the all city team at fullback in '39 and '4O. Later at Carolina State under Doc Newton, and at Carolina in the Marine V-12 l program he played a lot of football land baseball. After a tour of duty with the Marines as a 2nd Lieutenant, Coach Teague returned to Carolina to get his Master Degree In Physical Edu cation. He was married after his discharge from the service. He brushed up on his football by playing a season with the cham pion Charlotte Clippers in '46. Lenoir-Rhyne Outscores Quaker Crimson at Home Intramural Games Prove Huge Success The Yankee Stadium tag football team went into the intramural finals this week with an undefeated record unmatched by any other team. Fighting it out for a crack at the championship was the Westerwood Wildcats and the Old North teams, the winner to play for the crown. Tag football as played was new to all the students and was in troduced to the Intramural program with great skepticism. However, the present tournament, which finishes this week, has been accepted very well by the teams participating as well as by the spectators. Despite the obvious handicap of student referees, and the lack of familiarity with the new type of game, the Tag football activity was given very good cooperation and fine spirit. There were 12 teams entered in the double-elimination tournament (each team losing 2 games was eliminated). Each of the 12 teams had a player limit of 11 men (otli cinl team consisted of (! men). Out of a possible 132 players, 128 men participated in at least 2 games, which is practically total partici pation. Homecoming Game Played Yankee Stadium, Old North, and Jimmy Mann's Westerwood Wild cats dominated the play through out with Tommy Bray's Yankee Stadium team going through a tough schedule undefeated. A high light of the tournament was the Homecoming game between Yankee Stadium and Old North which was replayed after Old North came from behind to score a protested touch down in he late minutes of the gam. In the return game, Yankee Stadium shut out Old North 12-0. A Volleyball tournament will begin after Thanksgiving with all teams invited to enter. i p- Sfarr Eleclric Co. sJndly Incorporated OUi>IL/a.I Electrical Contracting ' Kjjj Q f Dgjfl,' ana Repairing Phone 2-2175 S ' a '™ 7 231 N.

Page Five Charles Big Gun in Bear Win; Final Score Is 14-7 Lenoir - Rhyne, behind the knife-like plunging of little John Charles, shifty tailback, upset expert predictions by turning back the Guilford Col lege Quakers 14-7 in a hard fought battle at Memorial Sta dium, Saturday, November 9. Guilford, ruled favorites be cause of their stunning upset of High Point the week before, tried everything in the books, but never seemed able to shift into high gear and start rolling. A Quaker shutout was avoided in the .third quarter; trailing by two touchdowns, the Quakers alert line man, John Ilanzel, prounced on a Hear fumble on about the visitor's 28. Four plays later, after a run by Powell, an ■lB yard pass from Johns to Nantz, a nine yard jaunt by Gordon, the ball was finally push ed over from the one on a quarter back sneak by Tommy Jones. Except for sterling performances of lines men Hanzel, Lody Glenn, and Harpo Withers, the Quaker tactics were rather ineffectual against the strong Bear ground and air offensive. Charles Chucks And Churls Led by John Charles, Lenior- Rhyne gave itself a brief two goal margin in the third quarter. Start ing from his own thirty-one, the shifty Freshman pierced 'the Guil ford foward wall time and time again, and finally on a twenty-live yard pass to Little on the 11, the last score for the Bears was set up. Charles went for seven yards on two tries, and Martin made it a first down on the Guilford one foot line. On the next play Charles scored through the center, and Barger again successfully converted.
