November, 1951 THE FULL MOON Page 5 SPORTS PARADE Jimmy Skidmore Henry Carpenter Before a recent football game it was heard that Albemarle’s right guard, T-Boe, had promised his sweetheart, “McKinney,” that he would score a touchdown for her. As the game progressed, there was a fumbled punt which T-Boe was fortunate enough to re ceive, but instead of running with it, he picked it up and stood there until he was tackled. Tough luck, MgKinney! Did you know that the varsity football squad has been having parties at halftime? Well, not parties exactly, but Coca-Colas are passed out so that it will settle their stomachs. It sure has been a help. Right, boys? What do you think of this? He never gets into the game only to kick off and kick extra points after touchdowns. So while other players are getting themselves knocked out, he just exercises his big toe. Who? Bow Wow, of course. It seems as though the graduates of AHS are not doing so bad this year. Goo Goo Gantt is playing first string wingback with Carolina and doing a very fine job. Under hini are Ed Patterson and Johnny Helms. Ed, who is a freshman, has been playing some very good ball and is expected to do a lot more_ in the coming years. Johnny has also done exceedingly "well playing B-team football. Whit Whitley is doing a fine job playing defense end at Duke. Sid Helms is playing good J. V. football at State, while Elbert Holt and Bill Kluttz are rocking things at Catawba; Don Kirkpatrick is holding extra points at Lenoir Rhyne after suffer ing a spine injury last year. AHS football team has been invited to Duke University for the Duke vs. Wake Forest game, thanks to Doug Knotts, who seems to have a lot of pull at Duke. Wonder why? Coach Webb terms it as, “That school will do anything to get Doug to go to school down there.” Anybody who has seen AHS team play lately has noticed the numbers 35 and 18. These numbers belong to Doug Knotts and Les Swanner, the two co-captains of AHS, who have really played some good football. We would like for you to watch these boys and see if you don’t think that they are certain to go all the way and play some fine college football. ACHES, CRIES, JUST DISGUISE If you have often wondered the reason for about thirty girls rushing down the back stairs of A. H. S. i^imediately foUowing the fifth period buzzer, it is nothing in the world ^ but Ma Schell’s girls trying to get to basketball practice on time. Well, the practice the other day was going alor^ fine until several girls started complaining of pains and aches, due to about 120 hours of exercise during the week. ^ stiff and ^re as everybody seemed to be during the first thirty minutes of exer cise, everyone began to obtain unknown strength and energy from heaven knows where the minute they started scrimmaging. You have never seen so much vim and vigor as was exerted by this aching and ailing bunch. The horrible practice was finally wound up with the shooting of twenty-five foul shots, and I do mean foul. It has been said that these athletes, or rather a cap^le few. Set records of six out of twenty-five free shots, and they will probably be slated for the all-state girls’ team.
