It wasn’t a dance— hut another victory for a team that's hungry for a state champion.ship. The hoys from the T\cin City were stubborn opposition and not until the closing minutes of the game did they start to lag behind. However, the Demons jumped to a lead early in the first fiuarter on baskets by Shore and Ooodson. The Whir- lies fought back with ba.skets by Campbell and Kincaid, but Winston refased to give up the lead and they succeeded in leaving the floor with a 27-24 lead over the Whirlies at half-time. At the start of the second half the Demons .1umi)ed to a six-ix)int lead and it looked like an upset was in the making, but the Whirlies came to life in the la.st cpiarter and came within 41-40 on Bill Camp- bell’s layup. Captain Lindy Brown added two foul shots and the Whir lies were ahead 42-41. Brown hit again but Goodson added a foul: then Jack Thomas came thrcugh with a lay-up to i(?e the game. Camp bell hit from the foul line as the game ended with the AVhirlies in undisputed second place, as Salis bury dumped Burlington 31-25. First Choices Named By Siler and Johnson The Duke Blue Devils will have another ex-Whirlie for football prac tice when the season begins next fall. I^eon Siler, big, husky 205- pounder, who did his roaming the football field from the tackle slot, plans to enroll at the college already blessed with numerous Greensboro football greats. J. M. Self and Zander Sherrill are also there. Stanly Johnson, son of our own “Jabbo,” entered Wake Forest this spring and will play baseball.
