Open December
7th
A basket-minded Euthalian team
got the Mars Hill college intra
mural basketball season off to a
fast start Tuesday afternoon, De
cember 7, when they defeated the
C-I’s 47-18. In the second game
the Phis took a hard fought 25 to
19 contest from the C-II’s.
In the first game the black and
gold clad Euthalians completely
out classed a green, inexperienced
C-I team. The C-I’s led by Keeter,
Caldwell, and Sinclair were de
termined but lacked organization
and experience. Pierce, Euthalian
center, was high-point man with 10
points.
In the second contest the hard
fighting Phi team got off to an
early lead and held it to defeat the
green and white clad C-II team.
The game was close all the way.
The Phis, a short team, handled
the ball smoothly but lacked an
adequate attack ‘ to run up the
score. Williams tallied 5 points
for the losers while Harris and
Smith scored 6 each for the Phis.

'The ’48-’49 basketball season
was ushered in when the M.H.C.
Lions defeated the American
Legion team of Burnsville 55 to
30 in McConnell gym Tuesday
night, December 7.
Led by Brevard Brown, sharp
shooting forward who scored 16
points, the fast-breaking Lions got
off to a slow start but gradually
picked up steam, scoring 33 points
in the second half. The opening
game introduced many new faces
to the local fans. Newcomers to
the squad were Bill Bennett, John
Shaver, both of whom started, Jim
Troxler, Willie Baskett, John
Whitehead, Bob Steele, Bill Hel-
vey. Bob McElrath, a letterman
here in 1945, and Harold Brad
shaw.
The Burnsville team led by
Roberts, their big center who
tallied 11 points, played creditable
ball, but due to the tight Lion
defense, never seriously threatened
the Blue and Gold thin-clads.
