PAGE SIX THE WAYNESVILLE MOUNTAINEER Mond MORE ABOUT Lions (Continued irom fate 1 and Lawrence Leatherwood, three of the most active Lions, worked every game in their Jobs as mem bers of the school's athletic com mittee. He expressed his appreciation also to the two physicians who also are Lions, for the cheerful service they offer whenever a player need ed them. He gave his thanks, then, to all the members of the club who gave him and the team their loyal sup port through the season. Weatherby's assistants Marshall Tcague, who has just finished his first season, and Carl Ratcliffe. who has just finished his tenth didn't escape his attention, either. If either had any doubts about his own abilities, they vanished be fore Weatherby had spoken for more than a minute. The head coach expressed his confidence in his lieutenants this way: "I'm pretty particular about the men I let take care of my boys." Then Weatherby introduced his players, commenting gently cr each one as he introduced him. Ratcliffe rosponded by giving a I hopeful forecast of next season. I "We're losing some good boys." he said, "but we have some good ones coming up from last season's junior varsity." Teague returned the coach's compliments, and expressed ap preciation for the courtesy the Lions had extended him and the boys. Sportscaster Blue Robinson who covered all but one of the games this season for Station WHCC characterized the boys in this quote: "It's not whether you won or lost, but how you played the game " And no one tried harder to make the players feel they had fought the good fight than the boys and girls of the host church's Method ist Youth Fellowship, who served the dinner. The players also saw the club administration in action. They watched with close atten tion as the Rev. L. G. Elliott, a Lion and pastor of Waynesville's First Baptist Church induct a new member into the Club Bob Korte, who also is an active member of the Waynesville Junior Chamber of Commerce.
