The Bulldogs jumped off to an early lead which they held for most of the game, but the Lions made a brilliant comeback to win their opening tilt of the season. As the final buzzer sounded, the Mars Hill students stormed the court in tribute to the victorious Mountain Men. Led by captain Bruce Rhine- hart, Asheville-Biltmore held the Lions in check for most of the first half. The Bulldogs were out front, 31-21, at half time. Bobby Robinson and Wayne Godshall pushed the Lions into their spine-tingling surge that brought victory to the Mars Hill quintet. With two minutes and twenty seconds left in the ball game, the score was all knotted up at 58-58. Bobby Robinson two free throws and the Lions led from here on out. Wayne God shall put the contest on ice for the Lions with four foul shots in the final fifteen seconds. God shall and Robinson were top scorers for the Lions with 21 and 18 respectively. Rhinehart dumped 23 in for the visitors. Mars Hill (65) — Robinson 18, Murphy, Martin 6, Hancock, . Earp 8, Coley, Godshall 21, White 5, Glenn 7.

It will be the first meeting of the year between the two teams. Last year the North Greenville quint were the conference champions. They are expected to repeat their championship play again this season. This game will be the third conference tilt of the year for the Lions, and it will also be the last game before the Christmas holidays. If the Lions should win this one, they could turn the tide of con ference play. There are hopes of a large crowd at the game. Coach Bob Edwards has an ex cellent group of C-I boys on his squad of thirteen. There are only two C-H’s on the team, and one of them did not play last year. The Lion five will possess a strong bench with eight boys on reserve. This factor will go a long way in helping the quintet find the victorv road.

The results of these games were unavailable at the time this article was written. On December 14, the Lions will tangle with the favored North Greenville five. This will be the last action for the IMars Hill thinclads until they return from the Christmas holidavs. . North Greenville is expected to retain the conference title which thev won last year. The Greenville squad has three returning starters from last season’s championship team, plus two first year men who have proved to be their stars thus far this year. Francis Brothers, NG starting forward, has been the big gun in their offensive attack. The Alars Hill quintet will have their hands full when they meet the Greenville boys. Bobby Robinson and Wayne Godshall are expected to carry the offensive spark for the Lions. Robinson and Bobby Watson are the only C-H’s on the squad. There are eleven C-I’s on the MH team. Alany of these boys can develop into sharp ball players, and if they do the Lions will be a hard team to beat. Inlramurals Ready For dciion Well, it looks as if intramural basketball will finally get underway. Practice games will be played before Christmas, but the regular play offs will not start until the holidays are over. Rosters for the teams have been turned in, and the schedule is being worked out by the chair men of the program. Roy Ammons and Sammy Stillwell will be running basketball and volleyball intramurals along with a committee. This committee is made up of representatives from each of the teams in the league. Rules have been drawn up and given to the representatives. If a group fails to place a team on the floor for one game, they will be dropped from the league.
