) Far in Season—Riley Is
Best Catcher by Far.
Coach Fox's baseball men will hit
j road to 'Winston tomorrow for a
diamond
contest with the Twin City
This will be the second con-
(jreuce some of the season.
The monnd for this game will be
►oiciipied by either..,Peake or Crutch-
ielii, probably tbe former. "Buck"
Peahe is inexperienced but has proved
n-oi'tli at least once before when
fetooh the High Point game at a point
ftere the Pointers had a nine-run lead
lg the second inning, and held them
admirably. It was partially
Peace's fault that they got the lead.
Sreensboro did not win the game,
but Peake showed steel in the ball that
> tossed'while in such a deep hole.
The catcher, and probably the most
dependable and steady man on tbe
ieam, will be Red Riley. Riley Is per-
better known as a slashing foot
ball tackle, but is a great little
well. He knows his game

and has far more to do with the way a
pitcher pulls out of a jam than
parent on the surface.
The first baseman for the Winston
game will probably be Gene Bullock.
Bullock has not played much, but will
probaly get the call in many confer
ence games. He knocked a three-
bagger in the High Point game.
Iddings on Second
The clown of tbe diamond, Carl
Iddings, will start at, second. He is
good fielder and generally a good
in with the pole. His mate at short
uill be Joe Edmuudson, a letter man
iud a good fielder.
The third baseman will most likely
be Charley Carroll, Jr., descendant of
•ell-known 1‘atriot (pro) third
tiaseman of a few years back.
The slugger of the squad by all odds,
Red Whitt, left fielder. Red has
already lost count of the homers he
ias hit this spring, aud his three bag-
are two numerous to mention,
le veteran of the lot, Bill Whar-
is the choice for center field. Bill
has beep at It fop three years
and tbe outfield isn't the same place
without Bill Wharton in it.
There Is some doubt as to who will
play in the other outer garden. Coach
Fox has a habit of letting his relief
pitcher play this position, and if
is not in the box, he will most
likely be kept out there on account of
his bitting ability. It may be Ray or
Koury.
Get Good Start
From their showing in the first
game of the season with Oak Ridge,
it looked as if the G. H. S. nine was
to be the winning baseball team
that has been searched for these many
years. True, the Cadets wou, but the
closeness of the 7-C score with a team
that beat Guilford college, looked
pinty good. Whitt was the hero of
the game, hitting a homer with two
men on.
It looked a different story when
Bessemer came here the week after,
however. Bessemer presented a pitcher
who gave only a couple of hits, and
scored heavily in the first tw
alngs. Greensboro put up a pretty
fair fight, but the first two Innings
ruined them.
Pluvius Knocks Homer
About that time slugging Jupe
Piubius stepped in and knocked a four
bagger, raining out the Randleman
same, the Danville game, and the
Easter Monday double header at Mount
Airy.
Things again looked the up and up
when the boys finally won a game at
Trinity, 7-1, on the set.enth of this

Team B had things going in the last
,’e minutes of the practice football
games Thursday, April 9, aud scored
twice as the lime ran out, but team
A had the jump and their 14 points
accounted for earlier in the game were
good by one marker.
With some five minutes left to play,
le A’s were on another touchdown
march. They got down to twenty, and
quarterback Elder called a last dow
pass to Cockman. Oka Hester, opposing
end, got his arms around it and lit out,
not being’ touched for the whole jaunt.
The try-for-point was a fullback
plunge. Callum fumbled, and the score
stood 14-6 with only three more min
utes.
Team A elected to receive, but were
forced to punt. The kick was partially
blocked, and the B's had the pigskin
in midfield. Floyd Rees, brother of the
well known Sammy Bees, tossed it to
flester, and he was off again,
Pittman went around on a well
worked off-taekle dash and made it
14-13.

the home boys again, 13-5.
In the last match Durliam was de

First Different Story
The first of the contest was decidedly
different. In the initial period Elder,
flashy little quarter back for the A’s
s expected to make his mark in
•arsity next season took the ball on a
perfectj spinner play. There was a
hole that a steam shovel could have
ambled through, with no one in the
vicinity, so Elder stepped out and did
not stop until he was on the other side
of the line, some eighty yards distant
•hen he started.
Fullback Norcum plunged over for
the extra marker.
Later in tbe same half the B’s had
the ball deep in their own territory.
A pass, Rees to Hester, was gathered
by Cockman and he ran some thirty
yards for six more points.
Lee made the point on a wide end run.
The outstanding men in the line were
Johnson, B guard, and Causey. A center,

* bang, getting five runs in the first

GREENSBORO HIGH WINS
MEET AT HIGH POINT
Out of five meets that the Greens
boro high school track team has en
tered so far this year, the Purple and
Gold has left the field triumphantly
times. In the Davidson college
meet, Greensboro finished woefully be
hind. but outside of that the record
is untarnished. The summary for the
State meet this afternoon, of course,
will tell whether or not the boys are
reallv a good “meet" learn.
Win Indoor Meet
At the indoor meet at Chapel Hill
March 7, G. H. S. threw in her glove
for a position among the strong Ira'-k
teams of the state by coming  ut
aiii'ud in the higii school division by
a sixth of a point. Gicer.sboro had
eleviii and one-third, Higii r'omt,
eleven and one-sixth, and Wilniingion
took nine and one-sixth.
The Greensboro stars for tbis meet
were Abernethy and Sockwoli, long-
legged junipers .and high-hurdlers,
who have wou consistently this year.
The two, sometiiiu's one, aud sometimes
the other, but always one of them,
have taken first and second in the
high hurdles in every meet they have
entered this season.
Besides those two, Gunter, dash
man, and Norman, in the shot, pro
duced points for the locals.
Defeat Winston
The first dual meet of the season
was pie to Coach A. P. Routh's track
men; they went to Winston and came
out on the long end by 72-45. In this
meet Jack Norman got 21 points, lead
ing the field. Gunter won Uie dashes,
Abernethy the Tilgh hurdles, Sockwell,
the high jump, Kennerly the low hur
dles.
Winston presented a surprise in
Cadman who came in a long way in
front in the 880. He was clocked at
2:03, plenty fast time.
Lose at Davidson

opposition. Charlotte won the meet
with 45 markers. High Point was next

Norman Is the Greensboro entry in
the field events who Is considered to
be good for points. He should take
the pole vault and bught to place In
the shot put. If he is feeling gooil, be
may win a point or so in the discus
throw and the broad jump.
Undoubtedly Sutlou, of Charlotte;
.^uman. .\rmfleld and Sizemore, of
High Point. M-ill have something to
say about that, hOM'ever.
The greatest portion of the contest,
■ • Greensboro minds, u-lll be the
sprints where Sizemore and Gunter
pitteil against each other. As Slze-
morj' has defeated Gunter twice, and
Gunter. Sizemore twice, the race is ex
pected to provide a thrill for the spec
tator.®.
The five points for first place in the
880-yard run are exiieoted to go, with
a due* amount of competition, to Cad
man, of Winston, if he is In good
form. Greensboro does not have a
strong entry in this event.
Williamson Strong Miler
I’ossibly 1h(‘ surest winner of the
whole card is Williamson, sturdy High
Point miler m-Iio holds the state record.
Captain John Knight of Greensboro
has just shifted to this event and he
may do m-cU as a oue-mlle man. He
will probably, as will the High Point
entry, have a lot of (rouble running
around the Hudson brothers who are
from Raleigh. There is also a Dimway
