BREVARD'S DENNY GRIFFIN,.
all-star quarterback who led the
Blue Devils to three outstanding
football seasons, is pictured above
signing a grant-in-aid to attend and
play football for the University of
North Carolina at Chapel Hill. One
of the most highly sought high
school grid prospects in the South,
young Griffin cast his lot with the
Tar Heels on Christmas Eve. Coach
Sandy Kinney of the UNC coaching
staff was here for the signing, and
expressed great pleasure when the
event took place at Denny’s home.

Mr. and Mrs. Bill Griffin, and his

Denny Griffin Signs Grant-In-Aid
With University Of North Carolina
Denny Griffin, Brevard
High’s versatile quarterback
for the past three seasons,
became the first member of
the 1971 Bine Devil squad to
sign a grant-in-aid this year as
he signed with the University
of North Carolina Tar Heels
at his home on Christmas
Eve.
“This is a real Christmas pres
ent for the University,” stated
Coach Sandy Kenney of UNC
who was on hand for the .sign
ing, “And we are very pleased
that Denny has decided to come
to Chapel Hill. We can do noth
ing but predict a bright future
for him there.”
The tall toe-head, who has
been simply outstanding
throughout his entire high
school career here, signed on
Christmas Eve in the presence
of his parents, Mr. and Mrs.
Bill Griffin of Poplar Street,
his high school coach Ed
Emory, Coach Kenney, and
several interested UNC alum
ni, Dr. Carol Grahl and Dr.
Jerry Cabe.
Young Griffin had been the
starting quarterback for the
Blue Devils for 28 consecutive
games and had never missed a
minute of action due to an in
jury during that time until he
was struck down in the first
quarter of the sixth game of
this past season with a shoulder
separation.
The shoulder was operated
on and has healed beautiful
ly, and Denny is currently in
the process of leading Bre
vard’s basketball team to an
other successful season.
The injury in the East Hen
derson game probably knocked
Denny out of all-state and other
high honors, but he still played
enough to be named all-confer
ence and all WNC. During his
playing time this past season,
he had completed 30 of 49
passes for 544 yards and five
touchdowns and had not been
intercepted. He carried the ball
30 times for 273 yards and a
9.1 rushing average, and an
other three touchdowns.
Brevard’s head coach Ed
Emory called Denny “a super
athlete.” ‘T hate to think of
losing him, but I’m mighty
happy that he is going to
UNC. The Tar Heels sure got
a great one when they got
Denny, and I know that he’ll
give them 100% plus effort,
just as he has given me for
the past three years. 1 wish
him nothing but the best at
Carolina,” he concluded.
Program Highlights
WPNF Will Carry Top Stories
Of 1971 On New Year's Day, 1:30
WPNF Radio will carry the
top stories of the year from
1:30 until 2:30 Saturday after
noon.
This outstanding program has
been prepared by the Associ
ated Press, and John I. Ander
son, the Executive Director,
urges all listeners to tune in at
that time.
Internationally, Red China
was the big news of 1971. First,
cronologically was the visit to
that country by the U. S. table
tennis team. Insignificant as it
seems, this event possibly open
ed new avenues to discussions
with Peking resulting in Red
China’s admission to the United
Nations and President Nixon’s
announced trip to confer with
Red Chinese leaders.
1971 saw national and inter
national concern over the Presi
dent’s wage-price-rent freeze
and important surcharge as a
means of stabilizing the econ
omy. Other top stories of the
year past that shocked the
world include the Pentagon
Papers and the resulting fight
over them publication and the
conviction of Lieutenant Wil
liam L. Calley, Jr., as the only
officer punished for all edged
atrocities at My Lai in 1908.
The United States pressed
ahead in the space . -
with the successful moon
ings of Apollo 14 and "
here on the own
cans saw dissent,
mob violence as is
by the violence and i
Attica Prison where
were lost
in some de-escalation with peri
odic announcements of troop
withdrawals. There was not only
turmoil on the battlefields in
South East Asui but in the po
litical election of President
Nguyen Van Thieu as the un
aposed candidate.
Back at home, rival factions
were warring over the school
busing issue and other prob
lems.
A giant earthquake in Cali
fornia claimed more than 60
lives plus devastating hurri
canes and tornadoes.
The nation’s Congress had a
busy year with many conflicts
on matters of vital concern to
all Americans and much of the
world. One of the most striking
actions of that body was the
Senate's voting down of the
Nixon administration’s foreign
aid authorization bill.
As the year comes to an end,
Americans look back with much
regret to the war in South East
Asia, fighting between Arabs
and Israelites and the outbreak
of fighting in India plus bitter
words and violence at home.
But all can look ahead to 1972
with a hope oi contentment at
home and peace around the
world.
