HIGH LIFE
PURPLE WHIRLWIND
IS VICTORIOUS OVER
WINSTON - SALEM HI
Dave Quate Makes 70-Yard Run
For Touchdown In
First Quarter
BOTH TEAMS FIGHT HARD
Winston Chalks up Safety in Second
Quarter—Game is of See-Saw
Variety—Band Plays
When the Greensboro and the Win-
aton-Salem High outfits, long since riv
als, met at Cone Park October 9, it
was a battle until the final whistle
found the “Purple Whirlwind” grid-
ders with a G to 2 A'ictory.
The game was decidedly one of the
see-saw variety with neither team
holding any great advantage. The ad
vantage held in weight by the husky
bunch of Winston youngsters was off
set by the dash and flash of the
Greensboro crew.
Scoring got under way early in the
first quarter when Dave Quate, Gate
City guard, picked up a Winston fum
ble and dashed seventy yards for
Greensborols only score of the after
noon’s encounter, ^^'inston chalked up
a safety for two points in the second
quarter ( being somewhat greedy she
set up a howl and said she had scored
a touchdown, but Referee Roberts
voted “naj's” and the nayes had it.)
Both teams had a large number of
supporters in the stands and their
cheers and yells added much to the
enthusiasm of the game. Aside
from this, the G. 11. S. band also had
much to do with the pep of the after
noon’s fray.

UNDER THE COLORS
A big bunch of purple and gold went
toddling across the football field, seem
ingly following Ben 'NYood. A huge
thunder of cheers pealed forth from the
grandstand.
After a long stare at the unusual
bouquet. I deciphered a bristly little
four-footed creature, with a little turn
ed-up nose and teary eyes. When he
was handed over into the grandstand
a crowd assembled to see the curiosity,
which was so small it could hardly be
found.
He was put out on the field again,
and as “Fifteen rahs for AYhirlwind’ ”
was heard from the spectators, “'Whirl
wind.'’ the footbal Imascot, turned,
bowed gracefully and smiled a winning
little puppy dog grin.
“From the mistakes of others a wise
man correers his own.’’

SALISBURY ELEVEN
HOLDS G,H,S. TO TIE
Ralph Cook Adds 12 Yards, En
abling Greensboro to Score
a Touchdown
SHOWS EXCELLENT SPIRIT
History repeated itself with brother
arrayed against brother Saturday, Oc
tober IG, when G. B. Phillips’ Salis
bury warriors lined up against those
of his younger brother, Charley, at
Cone Park in a game that ended in a
6 to G deadlock.
At the beginning of the fourth quar
ter, faced by defeat with a six to noth
ing score the “Purple 'Whirlwind”
rallied and began a march towards
the goal. At this junction of the game
the stands were in a uproar with the
Greensboro tans calling for a touch
down. However, there suddenly was
a hush in the stands as ‘Chuck” Bur
gess, field general of Gate City lads
was taken from the game due to an
injury. Things looked decidedly
gloomy at this time and with both
Burgess and 'Watson out the game the
Greensboro stock fell below par. It
was not for long however, for Cook
substituting for Burgess on his first
play of the game ripped off 12 yards,
putting the ball within two yards of
the goal. On the next play Teague
scored a touchdown with a plunge
through center. Try for extra point
failed. Salisbury scored game in the
third quarter on a long pass. Reeves
to Fredericks.
The entire game was a battle with
neither team holding any great ad
vantage. During the fray G. H. S.
registered nine first down; seven of
these came in the last quarter. Dur
ing the first half at ope time the lads
from the Rowan capital had the ball
on the one-yard line but here the
Greensboro defense tightened and she
held the Black and Gold for downs.
Excellent spirit was exhibited on the
part of the fans of both teams and
their pep served to liven up the game.
Hall Upholds Decision
E. K. Hall, chairman of the national
football rules committee, upholds the
decision of the Winston-Greensboro
game. The discussion was over a pe
culiar play in the third quartet. Ref
eree Roberts held that the play was a
safety and not a touchdown as 'Winston
claimed it was.
Lexington defeated Salisbury 23-0.
This is a total of 146 points for Lex
ington this season and they have not
been scored on by any team they have
met.
G.H.S.aEVEN MEETS
HIGH POINT GRIDDERS
FRIDAY, OCTOBER 23
Both Teams In Condition For
Fight, Though High Point
Boys Lack Experience
MEET LEXINGTON OCT. 29
Lexington Has Fast Team—Have Not
Been Scored on This Year—A
Hard Fight Expected
Today Greensboro meets High Point
at the furniture city. The Greensboro
boys have worked all the past week
and the results of the secret practice
will be shown today.
High Point has a creditable team
but are at a disadvantage because of
inexperience. The High Point coaches
have worked hard all the week in prep
aration for the game and have their
charges in great shape. The team is
especially fortunate in having a player
able to punt sirty-five yards. Both
teams expect a hard game.
Saturday, October 30 the Purple
Whirlwind meets the fast team from
Lexington. The Lexington boys have
been going strong this season and with
such men as Paul Hutchin, quaterback,
Sam Eanes, halfback. Bob Chetty, cen
ter, and Dick Cecil at end a battle
royal is expected.
Greensboro enters the fray with
most of the regulars off the injured
list. This game will be one of the
hardest of the season. The Lexington
squad has not been scored on this sea
son.
SECOND TEAM TO PLAY
BURLINGTON TOMORROW
Second Squad Excels Varsity—Has Won
Every Game Played so Far
This Season
BURLINGTON HAS GOOD MACHINE
Tomorrow at Cone Park the second
team goes into action when they meet
Burlington Hi.
The second team excells the varsity
this year in having won every game
played. Not much has been heard
from Alamance, but if Burlington lives
up to tradition a smooth running foot
ball machine will confront the locals.
G. H. S. SCRUBS DEFEATED
BY POMONA HIGH TEAM
Score is 6 to 2—Both Teams Evenly
Matched, Neither Being Able to
Gain Much Ground
G. H. S. SCORES IN FIRST QUARTER
The I’omona Highs defeated the
“Purple Whirlwind” October 8th Avhen
they overcame the G. H. S. scrubs 6 to
2. The two teams were fairly evenly
matcdied, neither one being able to
gain consistently.
Greensboro’s score came in the first
quarter when Pomona intercepted a
pass behind the Greensboro goal and
was downed. Pomona scored in the
second (juarter when one of their men
checked a lateral pass and ran eighty
yards for a touchdown. After this,
neither goal was threatened through
out the remainder of the game.
