MreAKfiu i«4r n.-n.WWJ.'l Lizzie Pratt who plays center, has been the star of all of Hill- ■ide’i games, averaging: 2l points per game. In some games •he has scored all of the points with her ability to shoot from iiiny position on the court. Her excellent ability to fake the op- poring guard out of position has paved the way for many of her shots. She is a Junior this year and Coach Riddick has stated that he will probably use her at fo ward next year. Pratt has been playing the game since she was eleven years old and it was coach Riddick who taught her the fundamentals. She is aided on the court by Watvon, Leake andCooke at for ward, and Jones and Jenkins at guard. Miss Pratt’s style of play ing has often been compared with that of Shaw University’s Mildred Moore.

Tuck DREAM TEAM7T SURELY THIS WAS NOT THE TEiAM THAT is the ‘-‘an swer to any coach’s dream” that represented Union against the Eagles here Tuesday night. ']piis group refuted almost all of the publicity they have had this aea- s n. Th«y weren’t even aa “calm, cool, and coHectpd under all conditions” as they should have been; neither did they live up to their reputation of being “excellent at conling from be hind.” Some would oay that this Wi s their “off” night but maybe there’s a reason. Ihfaybe it was* ticcause Downing kept ateaiing t'beir shots out of the basket and. because Colbert- wouldn't stop tossing those-pivot shots. It could be because Coach Bur- ghardt has set the toug*hest defense in the conference. But what will happen to the Eagles when they meet Union on a larg er court in Norfolk on the 15th is another story although from this point of vantage* tfiere isn’t much cause for worry. The crowd Tliat saw this game was far from being an all Dtir- hom crowd. iCot only was this a reunion for the former students HILLSIDE’S CO-CAPTAINS The 1940 edition of the Hill side Park High School Hornets (if th« gr'il'.'on will be captained by Joseph Blount (left) and William Pike. Th^se men who w'll ibe remembered bv all of the Hornets opponents,^ were elected co-captains of next year’s team by their teammates. The offen sive attack of Speed and decep tion which Coach Riddick will ‘feature next year will be center ed around the punting and pass ing ability of Blount who shows promise of being one of the the state’s best all round players. He is ju^ 16 years old and weighs 14i3 pounds. Pike, who weighs 173 has held down his position at right gvard for the past two years and pliiyed for the full sixty minutes of every game last season ex cept one in which he was injured in the last minutes.

UnliL this team came out all of the other teftms seemed so evenly matched that it appeared ' that the winner of the dual state title would be Just a “luclty” team; these lads show ed that th6 champions needed height, stamina, passing and ball handling ability, combined with di?adly shooting accuracy. They have all this and the trophy too. Melwood Davis, Dave Hei?der- son, Patterson, and Turner, were the outstanding j)layers of the meet as they'made their team champion of North Carolina and Virginia. Hillside, the pride of Durham, wts also very much in that tournament Saturday and they missed their choice to play in in the finals by Iett*ntr down in the last three mintite* of their semi-final game with Fayette ville. At the end of the first quar ter of this game, Hillside was leading 8-4; it was 13-9 at the hell and they were still leading by 22-17 at the end of the third quarter. It was during, the last t.hvee minutes of play that Elliott aii'l Currie of Fayetteville brought their team ahead for tho final score of 24-28. AND SPEAKING OF tourna ments, the high school principals of North Carolina have dealt a foul blow to the athletic program of the state in their decision to cancell high school basketball tournaments.

The final score was 43-'29 with Colbert of State leading with 19 points. The publicised stars of Union appeared to be just “another team” againht the impenetrable zone defense which Coach Burgharctt^s EJagles set up. Campbell, who is noted for finding the basket from any point on the floor, was held a measly seven points, as Downing, with all of his six feet-11 inches, several sure shots before they could sink into the basket. It was Colbert, State’s pivot man, who started the nightV^boring with a beautiful shot from under the basket; a moment later Down ing attempted a long one which Colbert gave another push two for two additional points. Then Union brought the ball down the court but no farther than the point where the NCC de fense began. 'Campibell and Glover were forced to stand al most in mid-court minutes at a time merely tossing the ball to each other waiting for the possi bility of slipping into the defense Hyde and Frazer opened Union’s scoring with, free throws and later Glover sank the first field goal to act the count at 4-9. information by writing H. Carl Moultrie, care Cape Fear Journal Wilmington, N. C. From this point the court ac tion continued at top notch speed being slowed down con- siaerably by fouls from both sides; however. Union continued unable to hit the pocket while the Eagles sank shots from all corners and when State was lead ing 15-5 Union called time out. When play was resumed the visitors made a vain attempt to catch up and in the attempt to cope with their speed, the Eagles fouled so frequenly that in a few minutes there were three fouls on Ennis and Anders. After 2 consecutive shots from Camp bell made the score 24-13, State (Please turn to page five) Save Time And Money By Relaxing In The B U S Going to and from work can be a pleasure if you ride the bus.
