Yellow jackets Get
Double Win From
Shawtown High
The West Southern Pines Yel-
lowjackets opened their 1956
cage season this week on the
local court with a double victory
over Shawtown High School of
Lillington.
In the preliminary game the
local girls unleashed a scoring at
tack that left the visitors dazed.
Pinal score: Southern Pines 60,
Shawtown 17.
Parthenia McCall, Patricia
Dowd, Madelyn Moore and Bren
da Marshall figured heavily in
the scoring. Jean Gore was out
standing on defense.
In the boys game the Yellow-
jackets found themselves trailing
midway of the second quarter
but, using fast breaks and accur
ate shooting, forged ahead 28-23
at the half. They went on to win
65-45.
Alphonse Hill, Victor Headen,
Charles Parson, Robert Lewis
and Fred Graham were outstand
ing on offense with Alexander
Lloyd and Charles Browers get
ting most of the rebounds and
controlling the bac]^boards.
The next game on the Yellow-
jacket schedule is the annual
alumni exhibition contest in the
local gym December 27 at 7:30.
Former standouts expected to
play are Allen Goins, Naomi
Waddell, Rosetta Perry, Charles
Headen, Dorothy Robinson and
Dorothy Graham.
Tremendous losses of timber
from wind over the years have
spurred foresters to study wind-
thrown trees and find ways of re
ducing damage; Not only does
wind topple trees in inaccessible
areas where they cannot be sal
vaged, but these fallen trees are
the gathering place for insects
which multiply and spread to
live growing trees. Also, when
these trees faU, they break or up
root smaller ones nearby, or land
on young seedlings, reducing the
potential timbr growth for the
future.
