December 9, 1938 GOLDSBORO HI NEWS PAGE THREE Swimming Team To Splash With State College Six Lettermen Returning; Ten Out For First Time; Six Meets Scheduled; Three More Proposed Members of the GHS tank team will probably see their first action of the 3^ear when they meet State College, the second week in Jan uary. Other meets are scheduled with Carolina’s freshmen, High Point, Wilmington, Charlotte, and the Duke Invitation Meet. Some of the proposed clashes are with Raleigh, Kannapolis, and Central High School of Washington, D. C., who nosed them out of first place in the Southeastern High School Championship last year. It is possible that Goldsboro Hi might have three swimmers repre sented at the Mid-Atlantic High School Meet in Philadelphia this year. If James Kennedy’s and Bill Nufer’s time on the 100-yard dorsal event can better that of the fifth place man of last year, they will go. Captain Crone will go if the trip is made. Lettermen that the team will be built around are: Captain “Bud dy” Crone, Lewis Tilghman, Ed Shumate, Ray Rouse, Bill Nufer, and Herman Pate. Novices who will lend a helping hand during the coming season are; Jimmie Simmons, Steve Simmons, Earl Price, David Bradshaw, Ben Ward, Harry Ward, A. J. Oliver, Bill Brown, Earl Layton, and Dees Pollock. The girls of the Goldsboro Swim ming Association have several meets scheduled tentatively this season. The mermaids are hoping to clash with the Cavalier Swimming Club of Richmond, the Shoreham Swim Association of Washington, D. C., Penn Hall at Chambersburg, Pa., and the Broadwood Athletic Club of Philadelphia. The girls composing the GSA team are: Mary Louise Thomson, Betty Michaux, Prince Nufer, Kala; Rosenthal, Lessie Mallard, Shirley Lancaster, ‘ ‘ Tootsie ’ ’ Johnson, Dean Powell, “Tootsie” Powell, and Mary Beattie. The Goldsboro Swimming Asso ciation has no connection with the high school. It is an organization supported by some of the outstand ing citizens of Goldsboro. • Merry Christmas ■ League Standings The standings of . the Sophomore and Freshman softball teams that play during the Physical Education period twice a week were at the end of the first session: Sophomores Boys' League Team Won Lost Dodgers 9 1 pirates 9 2 Giants 2 9 Cubs 1 10 Girls’ League Camels 10 0 Lions 9 2 Bears j 2 9 Elephants 0 10 Freshmen Boys’ League Tigers 9 2 Indians 9 2 Senators 8 3 Yanks . 4 5 White Soxmmi... 2 9 Red Sox 1 9 Girls’ League Blues 9 2 Blacks 7 4 Greens 4 7 Beds 2 9 Pick-ups By Addison Hawley V Well, GHS’s Junior Football Squad has closed its season with what looks like a very successful season. The boys won three, tied three, and lost one. Rocky Mount by a 6-to-O score was the only team to defeat the Junior Quakes. In turn victories were marked up as follows: Two wins over Clinton 14 to 0 and 21 to 14; one defeat over Selma 14 to 12; and O-to-0 ties with Selma, Mount Olive, and. Rocky Mount. During the season they ran up 49 points to 26 of their opponents. f Prom left to right: Charles Liles, Herman Jinnette, Russell Singleton, J. R. Nickens, Billy Hood, Andy Smith, Heyward Privette. Second row: Charles York, Wilmur Price, Willie Rogers, Clifton Daniels, Tom Dameron, Frank Ormond, Charlie Weathers, Tommie Bland. Third row: Addison Hawley, Raj^ Rouse, Ed Smith (manager), John Wason, Jack Smith. Others not included in picture are: Gorman Lawrence, Jimmie Wooters, “Tinker” Heyward, Paul Garrison, Earl Howell, Alvin Edgerton, James Kennedy, Legh Scott, and Arthur Boykin (Junior manager). jNow that everybody else is picking their all-state, all-Americans, etc., I think that I will just type out a few superlatives for the GHS squad. Best Sport—James Kannan, Best all-around—Pat Pate, Most Valuable— Tommy Edgerton. Leading the point givers to the Earthquakes this year is Pat Pate, who has in the course of the season scored 44 points. He has scored in 4 of the 10 games. Taking second place is Captain Potter with 26 points. Potter was out of five games due to a broken arm received in the Oxford game, and would have more than likely contributed more points if it had been possible for him to play. Willie Boykin, the Quakes’ right end, takes third place with 18 points to his credit. Other scores order are as follows: Billy Powell (16), McDonald and Taylor (12), Sasser and Johnson (7), and Edgerton (6). Statistics on the Earthquakes and their opponents: Quakes Points scored 148 First Downs 68 Yards gained at line 1,279 Yards lost at line 72 Net yards gained at line 1,207 Passed tried 75 Passes completed 34 Passes intercepted 4 Fumbles 20 Fumbles recovered 18 Punt average 34.1 Penalties 385 Opponents 89 31 792 218 574 80 31 12 14 16 26.4 135 During the ten games played by the Quakes, Coach Jeffrey used twenty-nine men.

Hardy is one of Duke’s lead ing players although due to an in jury he has not seen much action this season. He is only a junior and is the first Goldsboro boy ever to make the trip to the “Rose Bowl.” Clifton James, '37, football and track start of GHS for a number of years, seems to be getting along all right on the Cross-Country team at Carolina. He is just a sophomore and so far this year he has made quite a record. In the annual South ern Conference Meet he placed eleventh when he himself said he would have been satisfied with nine teenth. When Carolina met Duke he was the first to the finish line and following an old Cross-Country tradition, waited for his teammates that were next in line and then all crossed the finish line for a four-way first place tie. Clifton also during the “off” sea son for track entered the 145-pound class in intramural doimitory wrest ling and came out winner in his first wrestling venture. Merry Christmas EarthquakesWalkOff With First ENCCTitle and Girls and Girls and Girls and Girls and Girls and Girls and Girls and Girls By the way, I would like to see the Quakes, Champion of the Eastern North Carolina Conference, meet Whiteville, Champions of the Eastern Class B Conference, in some bowl or other. The football games played since the last issue of the Hi l^Ews were the most important of the season. Three conference teams, Roanoke Rapids, Greenville, and Kinston, were played at home, and Tarboro was battled there. By defeating the conference teams the Quakes cap tured the championship of the East ern North Carolina Conference. Roanoke Rapids came to the field of battle leading the conference with six wins and no defeats. The Earthquakes, displaying the best all-round game of the season up to this point, were not satisfied until they had scored a 7-to-O victory in the second period on a line plunge by Edgerton, thus sending the Yel low Jackets home with their sting ers plucked. Greenville was the next foe to in vade the Quake park and by virtue of a 19-6 score they were sent home in defeat. Goldsboro scored on a re verse with Pate going over, a pass, Pate to Boykin, and a pass, Pate to Potter. Greenville tallied on a re verse with McGowan going over. The following Friday the Quakes rumbled to Tarboro, and after marching to the goal line no less th&n five times, finally pushed over two tallies, one by Potter over cen ter, and the other on a pass from Pate to Taylor. In the final game of the year, Kinston was entertained but treated badly by being served a 13-0 defeat for the meal. Pat Pate scored both tallies on plays over center. Merry Christmas Fifty-nine Boys, Thirty-two Girls; Boys Divided Into Two Squads; Margie Wooten May Not Play With the appearance of 91 candi dates the Boys’ and Girls’ Basket ball teams started working on No vember 28 in an effort to mold two teams that will be able to bring home as good a record as did the cage squads of last year. The girls’ group under the coach ing of Miss Wilson and her assist ant, Miss Ezzell, will have to be made up around Hortense Liles, Marjorie Sutton, Virginia Parrish, Dorene Brown, Annie Deans, Ann Johnson, Doris Flowers, and Peggy Simmons, the only members who have had experience. Marjorie Wooten also has had experience, but it is doubtful whether she will be able to participate because of her weak ankles. Coach Jeffrey has divided the boys into two divisions. One con sists of the experienced men, while the other is a group that will start from the bottom and learn all the fundamentals of the game. From the B squad, which is made up of about forty, will go a few to the var sity, ten to the Junior team under the coaching of Mr, J. W, John son, and the rest will play games among themselves for training. Girls’ squad: Marion Bailey, Peggy Ballard, Dorene Brown, Annie Deans, Bar bara Edwards, Rosette Farfour, Doris Flowers, Virginia Jernigan, Ann Johnson, Ilelen Kannan, Jewel Keen, Leona Keen, Pearl Lee, Hor tense Liles, Louise Malpass, Ruth Moye, Helen McDonald, Lucy O’Brien, Fanny Parker, Virginia Parrish, Shirley Pearsall, Juanita Person, Leona Potter, Marie Reeves, Helen Rogers, Olivia Shumate, Peg gy Simmons, Frances Stafford, Minnie Stith, Marjorie Sutton, Do lores West; Margie Wooten! man ager, Jennette Garrison. Boys’ squad: Lee Adams, Charles Boyette, Willie Boykin, Edward Britt, Ar thur Culbertson, Shelton Elks, T. L. Ginn, Ray Gardner, Jimmy Hamp ton, Bobby Heyward, Wilton Hol lowell, James Howell, Chester Johnson, Glenn Johnson, James Kannan, Claude King, Clyde King, James Lee, John Lee, Charles Liles, Henry Monk, Earl Montague, Luke Monty, Russell Nickens, Durght Pate, Frank Pate, Rudolph Pate, Tom Parker, Boddie Perry, Horace Potter, Willie Rogers, “Fate” Sas ser, George Simpson, Ed Smith, Jack Smith, Lemuel Summerlin, Ray Thompson, James Watson, John AVatson, Norwood West, Tom York, Edward Nelson, Joe Hack, Bob Morgan, Pat Pate, Gorman Lawrence, Jimmie Whitaker, David McClenny, Herbert Barbour, J.

If You Don't Know Newcomb is the throwing of an inflated ball about the size of a vol ley ball back and forth across a net. The name Newcomb was derived from the fact that the game was de vised and first played at Newcomb College for Women. Aerial tennis is somewhat like regular tennis ex cept a shuttlecock is used instead of a ball. A shuttlecock is a cork with a ring of feathers around it. Merry Christmas • Theatre To Give Trophy To Most Valuable Player Mr. Frank Remsburg, manager of the Paramount Theatre, has an nounced that again this year the theatre will award a trophy to the most valuable member of the 1937- 38 Earthquake Football Squad. The award will go to the boy elected by the members of the squad and will probably be given some time before the Christmas Holi days. On the night the award is made the GHS band and cheer lead ers will lead the audience in “a High School Night.”
