The golf bug has been working over
time it seems,t for a great deal of interes
is being manifested here at the high
school in the “infant” sport, which made
itself known for the first time this
semester—golf.
The squad at the present time consists
of 16 men, who practice daily as indi
viduals. Once a week an organized prac
tice is held under the able supervision
of Mr. Fred Newnham, professional at
the Greensboro Country Club.
All the candidates for the team have
played a 36-hoIe qualifying round; and
after these scores were handed in, the
boys were arranged in ladder form
with the lowest scorer first and so
down the line. Fred Newnham handed
in a low qualifying score for 36 holes
of 164. Each man on y the ladder has
the right to challenge the player within
two rungs above him; and if he beats
him, the winner takes the loser’s place,
and so the team is determined.
The team will consist of from six to
eight men, depending on the number
called for by the other high schools. It
is probable, however, that at least six
men will make all the trips; and since
competition" is hot amon gthe squad
members, these six ^e by no means
permanent positions.
Today, March 14, the team goes to
Charlotte for the first m^ch, and the
Queen City boys will come here for a
return match on the 2l3t. Tentative
meets have been arranged with High
Point, Durham, and the Carolina Fresh
men, and others are anticipated.
Ed Michaels is captaining the new
outfit and is also among the first four
players, together with Fred Newnham,
Frank Abernethy, and Emory Carver.
Other likely candidates are Carl Carl
son, Frank Causey, and Alfred Wyllie.
Following on the heels of these and
keeping competition uncomfortably hot
for them are: Bill Callum, Tom Wim-
bish, Sherwood Hedgepeth, Bill Ven
ning, Bill Bonkemeyer, Ben Robinson,
John Nutt, Otis Phillips, Bob Moore;
and Wallace Jones.
The premier season promises a strong
outfit and a good schedule. It is hoped
that this is just the beginning and that
other years wjll bring with them de
velopment along this line. As many of
the golfers this season will return for
one or two more years, that develop
ment seems assured.

GOLF AND SWIMMING
NOW OFFERED FOR GIRLS
The delivery of the diplomas to the
June graduating class of Greensboro
High will mark the last appeearance of
several outstanding Greensboro High
School athletes. Football, baseball,
basketball, track,"tennis, and golf, box-
and wrestling, will all see several out
standing men go. From the organiza
tion of our class four years ago, it
has been prominent in presenting ath
letes to the various high school teams.
Football
In football several men have been
outstanding. For the past three sea
sons the class of 1930 had at least one
outstanding man on the varsity. Three
years ago Bed Paris made the varsity,
where he has starred every year since.
Beanie Curtis has been on the varsity
for the last two seasons. Tom Knight
and Boyd Morris were ‘on the varsity
during the past season. Besides these
men we have had Carey Sloan, Roy
Bradley, Bob Bennett, Harvey Ander
son, Lynn Davis, Isaac Gregory, Bill
Apple, and Bernard Money on the
squad. {These men ivilj bp greatily
missed when the next season rolls
around.
Basketball
Basketball also presents a host of
outstanding seniors. The senior class
has presented men in basketball for the
past four years. Pour years ago Boyd
Morris managed the team. The next
year he made the varsity. For the past
two seasons he has captained the team.
Eugene Curtis has played on the var
sity for two seasons. Morrie Witten
played on the varsity for the first time
this year. Red Paris has been on the
squad for several years, though he did
not make a letter. The absence of
these four boys will be felt when
next year’s varsity starts practice.
Baseball
In the baseball team the seniors pre
sent “Red” Paris, Beanie Curtis, and
Boyd Morris, letter men for the past
two seasons. These boys are among the
six letter men back for this year’s team.
Boyd Morris and Beanie Curtis are
also among the few three-letter men in
our school. Along with these three
men come Bob Bennett, Max O’Connor,
and Lynn Davis. These boys have been
on the squad for the past two seasons.
Track
The track team presents Roy Brad-
ey, Isaac Gregory, Robert Martin, and
Tom Knight. These four' boys have
been outstanding on the cinder-path
for the past two seasons. Along wit^
these boys come Bernard Money and
John Lane.
Wrestling
The wrestling team has presefcned
two of the most outstanding wrestlers
we have ever had in Grensboro High
School. Bernard Gilmer and Bill Ap
ple have played a big part in the es
tablishing of the record hung up by the
past season’s team.
In other sports we have Bernard
Money, a star on the tennis team for
several season's; John Lane, a member
of the boxing team for the past sea
son; Bob Moore, on this year’s golf
team.
Greensboro Boys
Make State Tearns
Continuing in their respective
fields, graduates of G. H. S. again
rank high in sports at the Univer
sity of North Carolina.
James Mans captains the baseball
team this season. Pete Wyrick also
takes his position on the U. N. C.
diamond this spring.
Star track men, formerly of G.
11. S., participate in track at the
University. Clarence Phoenix and
Theron Brown are out for track this
year.
Three of this number were mem
bers of the U. N. C. football team
of 1929, Brown, Wyrick, and Maus
scrapping on the college gridiron.

HIKING CLUB WILL
GO TO OAK RIDGE
Twenty-five Points for Walking
Required to Win
a “G”.
EXERCISES BY BELDING
8, Team Competed in Indoor
Track Meet at Chapel
Hill.
BRINKLEY ENTHUSIASTIC
HIKING
“Whether spring or fall
You hear the highland call,
‘Come on out and go hiking.’
The Girls’ Hiking Club is answering
the call. Several hikes have been
planned for the club, chief among these
will be a trip to Oak Ridge.
On Saturday, March 15, all girls wish
ing to get eighteen points for hiking
are urged to meet at Central junior high
at ten o’clock. From this point they
will hike to Oak Ride and ride back.
This will give every member going on
the walk eighteen points toward her
“G.” Twenty-five points for walking
are required in order to win a “G”; each
mile hiked gives one point.
Hiking promises to be one of the lead-
Winter sports are over, and spring
sports are coming in. Mr. Belding, the
track coach, issued a call for all track
men to meet on March 3 at the stadium !
for the first practice.
That afternoon a number of boys re-
Iiorted. Out of the group of boys who
came out there were four letter men:
Captain “Red” Goodwin, John Gunter,
Jack Norman, and Jack Brown. The
coach at first gave them some exercises;
later, he gave them a light workout.
Mr. Belding in an interview with the
sports editor of the Greemhoro. Daily
News said that he had a group of fast
boys, and that he expected to give
other schools great competition.
Last Saturday, March 8, the team
went to compete in the indoor track
meet at the University of North Caro
lina. Those who made the trip were
Captain “Red” Qoodwin, Plummer
Nicholson,, John Gunter, Roy Bradley,
Frank Abernethy, Julius Homey, and
Jack Brown.
The results of the track meet were
as follows: Augusta Military Academy,
first, with a total of 22 points; Char
lotte, second with 15 points; Atlanta
Tech, counted 8 points, and Raleigh and
High Point scored 7 points eacdi.
There were three divisions to the
meet. From 2 o’clock until 4, there
was a football game between the mono
gram men of the university and non-
monogram men of the miiverslty. Im^
mediately following this was the high
school track meet. In this “Red”
Goodwin won first place in the 00-yard
, dash; Frank Abernethj^ tied with foul
ing sports for girls this spring. Many
students have already shown a great | others for third place in the high jump;
interest in this line. About ten mem- j and Julius Homey came out second in
bers of the club have at present walked
ten or fifteen miles. Miss Brinkley, as
faculty adviser, is very enthusiastic
over the plans that have been made for
the club. Each week a five-mile hike is
scheduled. At the close of the season
those having twenty-five points in hik
ing will be rewarded with an overnight
trip.
‘So come on out and go hiking.”
SWIMMING MEETS ARE
PLANNED FOR G. H, S.
Two important sports on the calen
dar for the girls this spring are swim
ming and golf.
Miss Brinkley will coach both teams,
having the girls come out for golf each
Tuesday and Thursday, and for swim
ming each Saturday. Each of the new
features will give points toward a G
or “G. N. C.” In swimming a Junior
Life Saver will receive thirty points.
SPORTS
There are so many sports in a mod
ern high school today that there is no
reason why every red-blooded boy
should not enter one or another of
them. If a boy cannot make the foot
ball team, he shouldn’t he discouraged.
Following football is the indoor sport,
basketball. In the spring, there is a
varying program of athletic events.
Some of them are baseball,‘track, ten
nis, and swimming. Something is un
doubtedly wrong with a boy who can
not make one team out of the many
sports of our school.
SPRING FOOTBALL BEGINS
WITH MANY CANDIDATES
Promising Members of Squad Are Hill
Parsons, Arnold Dempsey, and
Sidney Ogburn.
the shot-put. However, Julius Homey
is not in school now, so his place didn’t
county anything except as an inidvidual
event.
Coach Belding was undecided as to
who to take, but the ones he did enter
were as follow’s:
.^loodwin, GO-yard dash.
Gunter, GOyard dash.
Abernethy, high jump.
Bradley, 60-yard dash.
Douglas, 1,000-yard run.
Gregory, 1,000-yai-d run.
Nicholson, hurdles.
Brown, shot-put.
lloruey, shot-put.
COACH BELDING
From all appearances the Greensboro
Senior High School swimming team will
have a very successful season. The team
will have several veteran swimmers and
a few stars.
The boys will probably work out at
the “Y” in the near future. Several
meets have already been scheduled, and
several more are expected later.
Candidates for the team are as fol
lows: Emory Carver, a tryout for the
Olympic contest, in other words, a very
fast man; Otis Phillips, a former Y. M.
C. A. man; James Allen, who secured
third in the State diving contest. Others
include Joe Campbell and Bill Murphy.
■When the bell rang for the last round
at the fight-the other night one of the
fighters said, “Let’s sit this one out.”
Coach Belding has decided to hold
spring football practice this year. This
will be the first time within the last
four years. It will enable Greensboro
to have a much better football team
next fall. This will be keeping in Hue
with all the larger high schools of the
state. Charlotte and Asheville for the
past four or five years have had spring
football practice, and it is easy to see
the results. On March JO the boys held
their first practice. About 25 boys re
ported. Coach Belding urges all boys
who are not out for any other spring
sport to report for spring football. This
has caused a change of teachers and
coaches. Coach Belding turns over the
track reins to Mr.'Lambeth, a member
of the faculty of junior high. Mr. Stan
ley Johnson has taken his place at jun
ior high. ,
Promising candidates are Arnold
Dempsey, Hill Parsons, Charles Pember
ton, Sidney Ogburn, and Clark Mebane.
PEP
Plans 'are now under way for a,
project by which the pep^ and loyalty
TAKES CHARGE j of the school may arouse' the enthusi
asm, following football, which died
down and has not returned. It seems
though Greensboro High School
could support her team as well as other
schools. Take any other town in the
state, and you will see that the stu
dents are always on hand to cheer their
team to victory.
While the coaches -are calling for
boys and girls to come out for teams—
track, baseball, swimming, tennis, and
gilf—we are calling for the students to
come out and support our teams. Won’t
you come out and do your part of the
yelling? We need you. Come on,
every one, let’s give fifteen rahs for
the team.
NEEDED SUPPORT
Sports mean a lot to G. H. S., and
the support of the student body is
very encouraging to the teams. If you
are not participating in any of the
sports, be sure to come out and help
the players.
