Seniors Vs. Underclassmen
A game which promises to be of
much interest will be played in the
Cape Hatteras School gym on Tues
day, February 7, at 7:30 p.m.
Opposing the underclassmen Blue
Devils will be the Senior Globe
trotters, a team made up of senior
boys who will be doing their best
to play like the famous Harlem
Globetrotters. The Senior Globe
trotters will be outfitted in black
face and red leotards which should
make the game well wor“h the
price of admission. The Underclass
men Blue Devils are the rest of the
regular boys* team. Since about
half of the regular first string are
seniors, the game should be about
evenly divided as to talent, and
should be a close game. Playing
for the Globetrotters will be Dewey
Edwards, Gary Gray, Clarence Jen
ette, George Price, Ronnie Price,
Johnny Quidley, Mack Riggs, Ho
mer Styron, and Roger Sutton.
