i Owner Woolworth and Trainer
'Earle Avery have decided to race
the twin brothers at Roosevelt
Raceway this season, and they

creditably.
PCC Men Tie for
1st and 2nd Spots
A stroke play tournament for
better ball of pair, played last
Thursday by 48 men members of
the Pinehurst Country Club,
featured a three-way tie with
leading teams scoring 66.
William S. Anderson and John
R. Burr scored 31-35; George H.
Leonard, Jr. and Dr. F. L. Owens,
33-33; William B. Foreman and
Norwood P. Johnston, 30-36.
Tied at 67 for runner-up posi
tion were G. E. Anderson and
Robert W. Calloway, 33-34; and
Warner L. Atkins and Frank G.
Whitney, 35-32.
Though it was terribly difficult
to keep the foals alive at first,
they have now grown and devel
oped normally; Tweedledee,
however, is somewhat smaller
than his brother because he had
to be bottlefed.
Populu Spoil
A form-line sports page filler
gave staggering comparison fig
ures on the growth of golf as a
major spKrrt in the nation. The
first U. S. Oi>en golf tournament
in 1895 had an entry of 11. The
entry in last years’ event was 2,-
449.
Not the Same
Southern Pines has an Anne
Glenn, who teaches first grade ir
a local school. Though she has re
peatedly assured her pup-xs that
her husband (whose name is
Nicholas) did not make the famed
space flight two weeks ago, they
remain unconvinced and regard
her still as a space age heroine.
Faint-Hearted
It was quite a relief to read
about the emotional goings-on at
the wedding in Italy Sunday of
Benito Mussolini’s son and Sophia
Loren’s sister. In a time when
most weddings are perfectly
timed and planned and brides
saunter down the aisle exhibiting
about as much emotion as though
making a trip to the meat counter
in a supermarket, it’s good to
know that the Latins are still as
uninhibited and temperamental as
ever.

Pinehurst School
Highlights
By GENE MAPLES
Beiskelball
The Pinehurst Rebels have had
a better basketball season this
year than most folks recall. With
the girls becoming season cham
pions and the boys seasonal run
ners-up, and both teams going al’
the way to the tournament finals
with boys only then being defeat
ed by the Southern Pines Blue
Knights, there is little room for
complaint.
Having downed Vass and High-
falls, the Rebels came to the
finals on Saturday. With the two
top teams in the Conference play
ing, Southern Pines and Pine
hurst, in that order, people ex
pected an excellent game—-and
they weren’t disappointed.
Bobby Norton was high scorer
for Pinehurst with 11 points; Mar
shall Lewis scored 8; Marty Mc
Kenzie, 6; Butch Hardy and
Gary Cameron, 4 each.
High scorers for the Blue
Knights; Dick Seymour, 13;
Johnny Bristow, 11; Eddie Mc
Kenzie 8;‘Wallie Wallace 4; Har
old Williford, 3.
The game throughout was a
typical Pinehurst-Southem Pines
battle which the spectators felt
could have gone either way.
Throughout the first quarter,
each team matched the other’s
goals, point lor point, with the
score 6 all at the buzzer.
At the half, there were hopes
of a Rebel runaway, with the
score 20-14 favoring Pinehurst.
Pinehurst’s slump in the third
quarter probably cost the Rebels
the championship. In the third
period. Southern Pines slid by
Pinehurst with a two-point lead,
24-22.
The Rebels were unable‘to stor
their opponents in the fourth
quarter and the Knights fought
ahead for their 39-33 victory.
All players, coaches and offi
cials everywhere deserve thanks
for the many long hours of hard
work which they put in to help
make high school basketball the
fine sport it is today.
