Tryon High Downs
North Greenville
The Tryon high boys rang up
their third victory of the season
Jast night by defeating the strong
r Greenville Academy by 27 to 21.
The locals were forced to play
without the services of their sharp
shooting forward, MjcFarland, who
was on the sick list. The Tryon
quintet jumped into an early lead
and held their own throughout the
contest with Greenville never be
ing closer than three points. The
junior college boys were given the
first opportunity to score on a
charity toss but missed. Soon af
terwards, Vining opened up with a
goal followed by Taylor and Dut
ton Beatson, and Tryon had six
points to their opponents’ none at
the end of the first quarter. In
the second quarter Beatson came
out with three personals and Cook
sey replaced him for the next two
quarters. The game ended with
the locals holding their own and
W3ix points ahead. The entire six
mien who took part in the game
for Tryon played good, aggressive
ball and displayed excellent team
work in penetrating the defense of
Greenville. Gambrell, Neely, and
Dabney, were the big shots for the
Academy boys, displaying a fancy
brand of dribbling and pass work.
The next game on the local’s
calendar will be on Friday night
at the Tryon gymnasium with
Central high of Rutherfordton
coming over. The visitors are
noted for their teams and if you
want to see a good game of basket
ball don’t miss this one. The game

TRYON, N C., THURSDAY, JAN. 11, 1940
Tryon is a busy little place. The
average person doesn’t realize the
many calls for service made on
the local merchants, local busi
ness men, organization and town
government. You take the high
way from the railroad crossing to
the South Carolina line is pretty
bad. A sidewalk is needed badly
for pedestrians. Charlie Lynch
and the town officials are work
ing with the highway deparement
to have this road straightened and
improved. The Farmers Federa
tion who removed their big wood
pile and - built an attractive rock
wall facing the highway have gone
a step further and given Chief
Kiser permission to remove the old
blacksmith shop nearby. Butler
Dairy’s new Pasteurizing plant on
this road has helped and the resi
dent along this route have been
improving their property for some
time, painting, remodeling and
planting flowers and shrubs. S'unny
dale on the right looks good and
by and by Tryon’s Southern en
trance will be a credit to the
community. The highway depart
ment has already surveyed this
route and as soon as they finish
their work property owners and the
town can make out their program,
but in the meantime it is nice to
know that all concerned are do
ing their bit to help . . . Sixteen
