Swannanoa, N. C. JR. Hl-Y. MEETS FRIDAYS Last Friday the Jr. Hi-Y. club had its first meeting in Mr. Shaver’s room. There were 13 boys present. The meeting was opened with the reading of Psalm 54 and a prayer. The guest speaker, Coach Hom aday, spoke on sportsmanship. “When the great Maker writes beside your name, it’s not a mark of whether you won or lost, but how you played the game.” After the speech there was a discussion on how to raise ten dollars to join the Y-basketball league. Then we joined in a friendship circle and had a clos ing prayer. This ended the first meeting of the Jr. Hi-Y of Swan nanoa. The next meeting will be held Friday. (Sect.) Millard Shook SUBSCRIPTIONS Last week each room started getting subscriptions for the Black Mountain News so we can have more readers. There have been 23 subscriptions from both high school and grammar school. From the first grade on every one has been very cooperative in getting news from his room in each week’s paper and we really appreciate the help very much. The ones on the paper staff have different articles assigned to them, and so chances are every article on this school page was written by a different student member of the staff. GIRLS SCRIMMAGE BEACON Swannanoa High girls team and Beacon Mills team clashed recently for the experience. Al though Beacon Mills played textile rules and had had more exper ience, the school gave them a pretty roHgh time. The schoool hopes to beat them next time, but if we don’t we will just have to try again. The starting lineup for Swan nanoa High: forwards were Laura Smith, Barbara Harding, Nancy Jones. The guards were: Jacqul ine Harper, Jacksie Allen, Ann Shaver. Beacon started out with Peggy Foster, Doris Johnson and Evelyn Roberts as forwards.

Football Revieiv By Orren Bell Swannanoa High Sports Editor The Warriors kicked the lid off by taking a 6-0 licking from the Marshall Red Tornadoes who went through the season unde feated. It is interesting to note that this was the lowest margin of victory for Marshall for the entire year. The following week the War riors took a thrilling, 7-6, decis ion from the Oakley Oaks in a hard fought defensive battle. The next Friday afternoon the Warriors traveled to Candler where the Bobcats clawed out a 13-0 victory on a couple of blocked punts. The next Friday the Warriors caught fire by scoring three scores in the first period and then coast ing to an 18-7 win over the Ben Lippen Little Deacons. The following Thursday night the Warriors journeyed to Mar shall to tangle with the Walnut eleven. Swannanoa won going away with a 19-0 victory. The following Friday the Swan nanoa gridders came from behind to defeat the Weaverville Eagles by the sum of 13-6. nor should we jump up and down and talk, nor run around the room. We should sharpen our pencils only when it is necessary. We should not go to the trash can nor walk around the room looking for trouble to get into, nor throw things on the floor for others to come along and pick up. We should ask for permission to speak and not speak out with out permission. By Floyd Rickard The next Friday the Warriors pulled one of the biggest upsets of the season when they defeated the previously unbeaten Bethel powerhouse by the score of 13-7. Swannanoa then won a hard fought battle from the Sand Hill Comets and made it a perfect Homecoming to the tune of 20-6. The Warriors then closed out their season by taking a 26-0 trouncing from the Black Moun tain Darkhorses. This gives them a record of 6 wins and 3 losses.
