GIRLS' SPIIRT The 1949-1950 girl's basketball team of Ellerbe is in the process of organizing a good team. Although actual experience is lacking, the team promises to offer scrappy and tough competition to anyone who challenges. Fresh- men make up a large part of the team and despite their youth and inexperience they have captured coveted first places on the starting team. Under the direction of Coach Lauffer, the team has made several good starts but lack the reserves to keep the score in their favor. In the years to come the team should be an excellent one because they only loose three seniors who are Marlene Joyce, Joyce Bemiett, and Bobbie Greene. The team, so far, has won 5, tied 1, and lost 9. Judging from the attitude of the girls themselves, it is evident that they will win more games during the latter part of the season. Now Girls 11 First Row: McFayden, Chappell, Fulp, Myrick, Joyce, Henderson, Mabe. Second Row Coach Lauffer, Rush, Sugg, Chappell, Bennett, Greene, Currie, McIntyre, Rains. Not present McCall Hancock.
