Eddie Clark and Gordon Neville both had over 30 points as the alumni took the sec ond game 108-101. with a complere iertlllzer in spring , and again in June. Many people have complained that although they had a heavy crop of holly berries tliis year the berries were not bright red. We suspect that the plants may need feedlng-but wait until spring to do this. The Yaupon holly has a high caf feine content and it is interesting to note that the early explorers of tills continent found that the In dians drank Yaupon tea. Mark Catesby makes interesting reference to Yaupon in The Natural History of Carolina, Florida and the Bahama Islands, London, 1754■ The Yaupon tea was used in a spring ritual. The maritime Indians used Yaupon tea as an item of trade with the Mountain Indians. Perhaps we should finish the column with a reference that may be use ful after Christmas. Catesby notes— they say it (Yaupon tea) restores lost appetite, strengthens the stomach, giving them agility.

It will be the third start for the twice-beaten Killians. Although Coach Bob Culton wasn’t in town, his cagers prac ticed every week day except Christmas during the holidays. The highlights of the practice sessions were two scrimmages with an alumni team consisting of Gordon Neville, Eddie Clark, .Merle Teague, Paul Cheek, and Jim Dosher, These two games were actually six and seven-quar ter affairs, rather than regulation games. School Won First For C.H.H.S., who won the first scrimmage 101-98, Frank Weaver and Brick Oettinger were high scorers with some 20-odd points each.

This sensational novel of ’57 will remain a favorite- through the Spring.

He is a co-captain and a hustling, scrapping T. Kearns- like 5’9” guard. At one forward will be up-and- coming sophomore BRICK OE'T- TINGER (12), known for his one- hand push shot. At the other for ward is senior letterman HUN TER TILGHMAN (40), a hustling rebounder. In the middle of all this is “SMALL PAUL” HOUSTON (50), a 6’4” rebounding artist. DAVID HENRY (14), a soph., and SUBIR ROY (10), a junior from East India (famous for his football playing) are the two hustling guards that top off a strong bench.

Franklin St. Yaupon (Ilex vomitoria) is na tive to the coastlands of North Car olina, and from Virginia south to Florida. You might not recognise Yaupon as a holly because most of us picture tlie prick^y'-l®®''®*^* large-berried species associated with our Christmas garlands. The Yaupon holly (Hex vomitoria) has small, oval, smooth leaves and equally small berries. However, the berries are bright red. During Christmas I visited a home where the Yaupon holly had been used as an effective decoration over the mantelpiece and pictures. I suppose that you would not say that Yaupon holly is a “dramatic ’ shrub when compared with a full berried American holly (Hex opaea) or the Very popu lar Chinese holly (Ilex cornuta var. B u r f 0 r d i). I would say that Yaupon is a graceful plant though I note that it is described as apt to be strag- gling in shape, in “Trees ol the Southeastern States (Coker and Tot ten'.” ^ ■ Yaupon does well in cultivation in Chapel Hill gardens and I think that you would have an intei esting planting if you associated Yaupon in a group with the more conven tional hollies and perhaps our na tive PossumHaw (Hex decidua). The hollies are woodland plants and you should see to it that you give them woodsy soils. That is tliey will appreciate soils enriched with compost, peat and/or leaf- mould.
