The angered Greenie five then took out in search of sweet revenge. They pounced the next tour teams they met. But then, as tate has it, the fierce NVinyah Gators, happened along and knocked oft the high flying Bishops valiant on their home court for the second time bythe same margin of two points. With the unpleasant taste of defeat in their mouth the Calhoun St. five invaded the C of C gym for a second shot at knocking off the high flying Birds. In the closing moments at the game, the Rutledge Ave. tive put the contest on ice, capping their second victory over the Battling Bishops. With all the hurdles behind them the BE basketeers swept the remainder of the sea- son in grand style clipping NCHS, the Bears twice, the Eagles, the Tigers and the Gators.

HOW MUCH TIME wonders Mike Lowry as he turns to consult the clock. Jimmy Kerr and Jimmy Mitchell listen at- tentively to Coach Douglas' instructions. TO THE RESCUE comes John Owens as determined Jack Albers retains the ball. Tommy Lovelle is kept in the back- ground by St. Andrews' players. SIDE HOOK is fired in by Ephie Clark as Charlie Straney keeps his eye on the ball. Page Ninety-Four W' in 15 - 3 record places BOYS' CAGE CAPSULE We They 91 ... ...

Seven hundred ioyous students then par- aded quickly to the adioining gym for the BIG pep rally. The din and roar of the multi- tude expressed the butterflies-in-stomach ten- sion that was present. Jumping and swirling cheerleaders snowballed the cheers until the rafters shook and the bleachers seemed to float. Skits that mocked the pending game and musical numbers appropriate for the clas- sic clash provided color for the enthusiastic gathering. At 7:30 o'clock an empty seat was a price- less object to be dreamed of and the per- imeter of the gym was lined thickly with the devoted fans. Ages passed before the two un- defeated arch-rivals captured the floor to warm up. The long awaited buzzer sounded as the two Goliaths of the opposing teams, Tommy Lavelle and Bill Yarborough sided up to each other for the opening tap off. Blurs of green, white and red, moved around the court as the foes flew quickly into their patterns and coun- ter-patterns. The basketball changed hands, courts and baskets as the score climbed.
