Basketball Offers Stiff Rivalry Between Service Clubs
Good Sportsmanship
Key Factor In Games
In order to promote good sports
manship and a competitive spirit
among service clubs at Grimsley,
the advisors of the various organi
zations have set up a program of
intramurals activities. Each after
noon sounds of laughter at the
funny plays and rousing cheers
for a member who drops the ball
in the hoop for a point.
Mr. Jack Jessup, history teacher
here at GHS and once a student of
Greensboro Senior High School, is
the advisor of the interciub con
tests. Most of the boys’ service
clubs’ contests are just getting
underway while the girls have
been challenging each other for
several weeks.
Each week a team is eliminated
in each sex distinction until there
remains only the team represent
ing each. Not only providing rival
ry, these programs also provide
plenty of exercise along with a
chance to test their physical weak
ness. What could possibly provide
better sports entertainment than
Johnny Hill and Pat Brugh of the
Jaycees trying to out play Dargan
Frierson and Charles Sherill of the
Junior Civitans. or Betty Pritch
ard and Cindy LeBrun of the
Charioteers attempting to upset
the Junior Civinettes Ellen Bar-
riar and Amy Murray.
Despite the hilarious situations
and boo’s from the opposing team,
the clubs finally bring home the
respective cups will have plenty
to look back on. Although their
playing does not quite compare to
Skeeter Powell’s or to Pat Moriar-
ty’s, they fought truly in the
famous Whirlie way. This cup won.
however, must be fought for all
over again when it comes home to
begin the program again next year.
To those who cackle at the idea
of Grimsley’s more well known
students not athletically inclined
participating in such a program, it
would seem that they are missing
a great deal of enjoyment.
The service clubs participating
in this program are Junior Civi
tans, Junior Jaycees, Key Club,
Interact Club, Junior Civinettes,
Jaycettes, Chariateers, Seniorettes,
O. Henry Juniors, and the newly
formed Exchangettes. All these
clubs have been influential back
ers for GHS programs and proj
ects.
G. H. S. Stadium
Provides Various
Sports Entertainment
To walk between the seats in
the deserted Greensboro High
School Stadium is a rare privilege
for Grimsley’s students. When
GHS teams are not perporming
and the marching band is not per-
forming. Page is carrying on its
Athletic contest.
The stadium is privately owned
and operated by the Greensboro
High School Stadium Corporation.
It is to be used by any Guilford
County High School wishing to
carry on an organized athletic
game on the field. Having always
had a fine record of attendance
it has made a fine investment for
these interested citizens of Greens
boro.
The care of Greensboro High
School Stadium is provided by a
wide corp of caretakers along with
many hoixrs of service club mem
bers at Grimsley. The scoreboard
was a gift of the Coca Cola Com
pany and Junior Jaycees here at
GHS. Built in 1951, the stadium
has been well preserved and is a
standing symbol of good sports
manship through our state. It all
backs adults as well as the respec
tive members of the schools repre
sented on the field.
Although the Greensboro Senior
High School stadium is located on
the campus of Grimsley Senior
High, it does not actually belong
in any way except time and tradi
tion to the school. The plays of
Greensboro and Grimsley Senior
High School echo through the
stone wall absorbed with “Go,
Whirlies, Go’’ and resound joy
fully when other teams pace off
to face one another. It has become
an accepted trend of GHS’s stu
dents to take this stadium for
granted. Too bad, fo rit is a privi
lege worth its weight in winning
scores of years gone by.
Unusual activities can be seen on the basketball court af the Boys’ Gym. The pros exhibit
