C. C. Fordham who is to assist Ay

to say a few words to the boys. Mr.
Fordham made special mention of the
fact that track work brought out the
real grit in a man. Fie said that if he

would show him up. He closed his

Mr. Stanley Johnson, assistant base

He asks not if you won or lost.
But how you jdayed the game.”

He urged all the boys going out for

WAKE FOREST BOYS
DEFEAT G. H. S. TEAM
Deacon Freshmen are Victorious by
38-20 Score—G. H. S. Alumni At
Wake Forest Among Spectators
♦
Wednesday night, February 3, at
Caldwell Gym, the G. H. S. basketball
five tasted defeat at the hands of the
Wake Forest Freshmen team. The final
whistle found the visitors at the big end
of a 38 to 20 sct)re. At the start of the
game both teams started showing some
classy floor work which made the con
test an extremely Interesting one from
the spectator’s view-point.
.Although out-played after the first
(piarter, the locals put up a plucky
fight. Most of Greensboro's scoring
came as a result of long shots. G. H.
S.' cagers paved the way to their down
fall due to their inability to locate the
basket with their crimp shots. dies
Arnold and Willard Watson were the
shiiung lights for the Gate City lads
while Cafitain Dowtin starred for the
IJttle Deacons. Dowtin was taken out
near the end of the second quarter due
to an injury to his foot. He returned to
the gtime at the beginning of the sec
ond half but he was taken out of the
game a few minutes later. I.ufty
started the game as forward in the
place of Solomon.
A large crowd turned out to witness
the game. Among the spectators were
several former G. H. S. students w'ho
are now attending W’ake Forest.

(ireenshoro lost its second game in
1 wo days to the X. C. State Freshmen,
4.1 to 23. The game was not as one
sided as the score would indicate, for
(■reensboro i)layed a hundred per cent
better than the day before. State has
the fastest Freshman team in the state,
frank Goodwin, former G. FI. S. stu
dent, is captain. 'I'his man and his run
ning-mate, A'oung, were too much for
Greensboro. These two alone accounted
for 32 of State's ])oints. Fiach scored
1() ])oints. The score at the end of the
half was 22 to 7. At the end of the
third quarter it was 41 to 11. Then
Greensboro started a spurt which net
ted twelve points while the Fresh
scored only 4. But it was just a case
of too much shooting by Captain Good

whole was a wonderful machine with
beautiful ])assing. F’or Greensboro,
Solomon was the star, with 8 ]Knnts.

PROSPECTS FOR TRACK
TEAM UNUSUALLY GOOD
Coach Aycock and his white duck
crew will be seen going between Mclver
school and the fair grounds every day
for the next month. Their practice will
take place at F'he Central Carolina Fair
Grounds as usual, but the boys will get
a work out by running from Mclver to
the practice. 'The prospects for this
year's stpiad are very bright as many
of last year's team will be back this
year, including former captain Homey.
'The Purple and Gold trackers have
the best schedule this year that they
have ever had. Besides several meets
with interstate high schools, there is
a trip to Maryland in view, but the
plans for this have not been fully work
ed out.
'The team lost one of last years
coaches, “Red” Strickland, but to fill
his place there is C. C. Fordham, F. B.
Aycock as usual, will have charge of
dash and sprints, while Fordham, who
was a star at Carolina in the field
events, will have charge of this divis
ion.
.Aycock is confident of a large number
of candidates and he says: “LMmish the
bovs and we will have the team.”
'File basketball team has shown that a
little ])ractice will help a team. At the
start of the team was handicapped by
lack of interest in this sport by the play
ers and their failure to report for prac
tice. 'Tile few men that were out, worked
faithfully and some were rewarded by
otlier applicants coming out. Now all
the old men and the new have played
together enough to have that quality
which is so necessary in basketball—
team work.
Track season will start in another
month, so Coach Aycock is very busy
trying to locate new finds for this sport.
The schedule calls for some good meets
and the track is the ])lace for the man
who is too light for other sports. Boys
come out and try for this as every real
boy must be nursing a desire to get
one of those “yeller” (gold) sweaters
with the purple “G”. 'That letter means
a lot. Get out and work for it.
Saj- fellows how about those new
sweaters that the boys are strutting
around in. Finough color to blind anyone,
but also something to get out for. 'The
school would like to see a greater num
ber of them. “Every boy out for some
athletics.”
Baseball is about here and this year
G. FI. S. is looking forward to this
sport to have an unusually successful
season. A number of old men will be
in the lineup this spring and there are
a number of new comers to the school
who talk as if they can play. AVe hope
you can, but you have got to show us.
It is time that some one started a
vote of thanks for Coaches Stanley
Johnson and Herbert Parks for their
work with the basketball team.
Say folks, I am sorry the games had
to be arranged in the fashion that you
will find them but as the High Ivife
staff laid off one issue in order to cram
for exams, this is the best way I could
handle the old games.
LOCAL CLUB TOLD
OF STATE G. A. A.
Is Composed of Ten Districts—
Meaning of Monograms Em
phasized in Seveal Talks
Thursday, January 28, the Girl's Ath
letic Association held its regular
monthly meeting. At this meeting the
Siate and local organizations of the As-
lociation were discussed.
Aliss Alorrow told the girls how the
state organization originated in 1922
and outlined its jnirpose. It is com-
jmsed of ten districts which meet to-
getlner at least twice a year. Each dis
trict comes together with its represen
tatives as often as it thinks necessary.
Several of the girls wearing mono
grams s])oke on the various points of
the organization. Inez Murraj^ exiflain-
ed the local constitution and Ruth AVat
son told the girls how to win a “G”.
She urged the girls to go out for the
different sj^orts and to be wearers of
that letter. Citizenship, one of the re
quirements in getting a G of “GNC”
was covered by Elizabeth Crews. How
to get a “GXC” was explained by Dot
Tea. A’irginia Douglas made clear
.Alonogram AA'earing and what it means
in her talk. Miss Dry, faculty head of
girls’ atliletics, gave a summary of the
number of girls wearing the high school
and state monograms since its organi
zation. 'There are seventy-eight girls
all o\er the state wearing the state
monogram, with twenty-six from G. IT S.

Greensboro Holds Oivn Against
Opponents in First Half, But
Weaken Last Part
Riding rough-shod over their oppon

score was 4.5 to 19.
During the first quarter the two
(piinis fought each other to a standstill,
but Durham took the lead early in the
second quarter and was never headed.
'File last half was livened by some
furious guarding by J. AA'atson, Greens
boro ca])tain. He became too rough
and was ejected for personal fouls,
however.
'The Gate City quint was weakened by
the absence of AVillard AA'atson, star
guard, who is out of the line-up on ac
count of injuries.
