Secure Place In Final Rounds
In The Hi I Q Bowl competi
tion occurring Saturday, February
17, at the University of North
Carolina at Greensboro’s Elliott
Hall, Grimsley’s team won three
of their four rounds and main
tained a place in the competition
which concluded Saturday, Feb
ruary 24.
Beginning at 9:15 a.m. and
lasting until 3 p.m., the four
round, double elimination contest
matched 26 participating schools
against each other, narrowing the
field to 10. These 10 included
Grimsley, Page, Smith, Reidsville,
R. J. Reynolds, Walter Williams,
West Davidson, Ragsdale, Bishop
McGuinesp, and Curry.
GHS Competes
GHS’s team members, David
Labell, Carolyn Lyday, Mike
Schott, Mike Spital, an'd Martha
Wilmering, were coached by Miss
Jennie Lou Divine and Mr. David
Stanfield. They had meetings
three afternoons a week to prac
tice quick and total recall for
the competition.
Sponsors of the Hi I Q Bowl
are the Greensboro Jaycees,
WFMY-TV, and North Carolina
National Bank. The contest is
emceed and directed by the
Greensboro Youth Council (GYC).
Each member of the winning
team received a $250 scholarship
from NCNB. Scholarships of $150
were awarded to members of the
second plage team. Alternates on
each team receivel lesser amounts.
The revolving Hi I Q Bowl trophy
Was given to the school for one
year.
Idea Originated
The idea for a Hi I Q Bowl
competition was first designed
by the 1965 television committee
of the GYC (then YCCA). Their
aim was to exhibit the varied ac
complishments of the area youth.
They felt that achievement and
scholarship of the high schools’
students were being overlooked
by the general public. Through
the Hi I Q Bowl, teams of four
members and an alternate from
high schools in the WFMY view
ing area take part in the double
elimniation rounds of 20 minutes
each.
Objective questions are asked
with point value attached. Much
as in the College Bowl, toss up
questions, worth 10 points are
asked. Correct answers for a team
carry the privilege of the bonus
question, worth from 5 to 15
points. The ninth and if necessary
the tenth round is taped for
broadcast by WFMY.
All questions are formulated
specially for the Bowl competi
tion by UNC-G, Science Research
Associates, Greensboro College,
Bennett College, A and T and
Guilford College.
Adult manpower for the Hi
I Q Bowl competition was sup
plied by the Jaycees.
Curry School won the Hi I Q
Bowl ccmpetition in its first year.
Lexington won in 1966, and Page
was last year’s winner.
Members of GHS’s team for the
competition last year were Jim
Blackwood, Carol Crocker, Bob
Freedman, and Austin Lybrand.
Mr. Robert Frederickson was their
coach.
