SPORTS COLUMN Our Sports' Activities started with softball. We had a very successful season. In the first game of the District Tournament, which was held at North Warren, September 23rd and 24th, we won over North Warren by a score of 29-16. In the finals we won over Brownsville by 20- 14. The team was coached by Mr. Brooks and Mr. Everly, our agriculture teacher. On November 9, 1948, we opened our 1948-49 basketball season with a one point loss to Richardsville in a well played game. We had an extra good squad consisting of Jack Harvey, Leon Hendrick, Sam Henderson, Maury Herrington, and Bill Long. Coach Carroll Brooks se- lected Billy Laurence, a Junior, as manager and Dean Massey, an Eighth grader, as assistant manager. The B Team was composed of: Kenneth Fuller, James Smith, Junior Whitaker, Bill Lindsey, Wayne Kimbro, John R. Mustain, Maurice Cole, Randall Wood, and Dale Stahl. The Bristow Comets were eager to see the season open. The new gym was completed, and they had a better place to practive and play. Larger crowds came to see the team perform, because they had a more spacious place in which to enjoy the game. The most contested game during the County Tournament, which was sponsored by the Park City Daily News, was the game with South Warren. The games were held at the Western Gym, December 16-18, We started by playing our usual opponent, South Warren. We won this exciting game by a 47-29 margin. We won over North Warren by a 51-32 in the semi-finals and Richardsville in the finals by 37-35. The B Team went down in defeat at the hand of North Warren in the finals. A nice trophy was presented to Coach Carroll Brooks and his team. The honor of being selected for the all tournament team was received by Maury Herrington, Leon Hendrick, and iam Henderson. A After the victory, the Parent-Teachers Association gave the ball players, cheerleaders, and their guests a banquet at the School Cafeteria. At the beginning of Basketball Season, the faculty and student body decided the squad should have a title name. A contest got under way and each high school pupil submitted a name. At the close of the contest a teacher and pupil from each room submitted Comets to be the future name of the team. The basketball team was supported by an enthusiastic student body and four capable cheerleaders ---- Marie Perry, Martha Webb, Lavonne O'Banion, and Thelma Hendricks. As this edition of the '49 Annual goes to press the climax of the basketball season has not been reached, as we have our district, regional and state tournaments coming in the near future We, as the Seniors, will not forget what a most enjoyable year of basketball we have had. No doubt many of these fine athletes will go out into the world and excel in the field of sports! By Leon Hendrick Margie Dean Cowles 37
