FIRST OF ALF, before we get down
to business, we would like to take this
opportunity to wish the 1942 Purple
AVhirlwinds the best of luck in all of
the games in which they will play—
and win—this season, especially the one
tonight with the Cyclones of Wilson.
The team will be lacking some very
familiar faces when they take the field
tonight, but you can rest assured that
Coach Bob Jamieson will again turn
cut one of the best high school foot
ball teams in North Carolina and the
South—if not the best.
O
THIS CORNER would like to hand
out a word of praise to Coach Stanley
(.Tabbo) Johnson for hi.s excellent job
of piloting the City American Legion
junior baseball team. Ilis team did
some brilliant i>laying, but was nosed
out by the county juniors, coached by
Block Smith, four games to three in a
seven-game series.
O
YOU CAN REiST assured that the
football team this year will not be
lacking of managers and assistants,
for at the present there are five boys
who are attending to the field house
and taking care of the uniforms and
the like.
The five managers are Cal Wray,
head manager; Jerry Watson, first
assistant manager; Ashton Kearney,
Edmond Foster and David Swain.
O
IT WAS A BLESSING to the foot
ball team and a crushing blow to the
band when Howard Morris, cornet play-
Prospects for Net Team
Not So Good, Says Mann
Maybe it is a little in advance, but
unless some new tennis material shows
up from seme of the juniors coming to
Senior high, or some of the seniors
show some hidden ability, the local
tennis team in the spring is likely to
he cf lew calibre.
The graduating of such senior net
stars as Emry Greene, Donald Garrett
and Rill Cavan set Coach G. O. Mann
wcnderiiig what was to happen when
the tennis season rolls around next
spring.
But don’t give up, tennis fans. Among
the returning netmen are Joe Coleman
and a few others who were beginning
to take an interest in the sport when
the lifgli school season closed last year.
Included among the prospects from
junior high schools are Bill Mitchell
from Central and Harry Miller from
Gillespie. Coach Mann said that Mitch
ell was probably his best candidate for
the third or fourth position on the
tennis team,

school, decided to stick to football in
stead of continning with the musicians

rate contender for guard on the first
string of the 1042 Whirlwinds.
O
Well, the girls at Senior high finally
have a gym to themselves. This addi
tion to the girl.^' athletic department
is a God-send, as nearly all girls at
Senior are now taking physical educa
tion, and there would not he enough
periods for both the boys and girls to
use the main gym.
O
THIS (’ORNEiR WOULD not be com
plete unless we mentioned the fact that
the Greensboro Red Sox, under the able
direction of Heinie Mamish, came
through in true championship fashion,
sweeping the last five-game series from
Winston-Salem and clinching the Pied
mont league pennant by the slim mar
gin of two pen-entage points.
Whirlies To Encounter
Raleigh in Second Tilt
The second spot on the Whirlwind’s
schedule this season goes, as it has
for the past number of years, to Ra
leigh high, one of the co-champions of
North Carolina last year. This
counter, which has in most all previous
years been one of the Whirlies tough
est, will again be a corker to see.
Altliough the Hurricanes were state
CO - champions last year, they went
down in defeat before the hands of
Greensboro, IJ-li, and they will be out
to avenge this if possible, when the
two teams meet the 18th of this month
fn the capital city.
Englisli 7 students began their
courses with a study of early English
literature.

Old Shop and Band Hoom
Converled Inle Hew Gp
The girls at Senior liigli sidiool were
affected in more ways than one when
the new Technical building was erected
and a new band room and sboj) con-
.strncted.
With the old localities of these two
departments vacant, the officials at
Senior high began planning and when
school opened for the fall term last
week, the numerous girls taking physi
cal ed found themselves with a brand
new gym with all of the advantages
of the main boys’ gym next door. No
longer will the boys and girls have to
take turns in using the same gym in
the winter.
It is probably a good thing that the
now addition to the (>r(*en.sboro athletic
department came when it did, as all
boys and girls alike, except a few with
certificates from their doctor asking to
be exempted, are requested by tke
state to take iiliysical education courses
this year.
Flans for girls aidivities in the new
gym include basketball, badminton,
shuffle board, table tennis and many
other indoor sports.
