GIRLS BASKETBALL TEAM It matters not whether you won or lost, but how you played the game Mrs. Voss has used these words as the basic rule for the training and coaching of our girls' basketball team this season-and it has been a most successful one. At the present. we are tied for the Stokes County Championship and have our eyes bewitchingly cast toward that Journal-Sentinel Tournament Crown. Oh. yes, we forgot to introduce our team. For the starting line-up, there is Sally Mead- ows, our hook-shot artist, and with Lorraine Robertson, who guard positions, we have Edna Manring. A game against these Norma Faye Edwards, our All-American material, along replaced Edna Newsome early in the season. As for the Earl Speedy Edwards, Lena Faye Tedder, and Phoebe girls and you rest for a week before playing again. When these girls run into trouble, they are relieved by Betty Searcy, Nell Baker, Rachel Burge, Sybil Sizemore, Emodene Nance. Betty Newsome, Peggy Hall. and Jill! NCWSNIU- Ruth Knight, one of our reserve guards. left our team during mid-season. We must not forget our manager, Pete Westmoreland, who has worked so diligently and faithfully in caring for our team's every need. To our girls' basketball coach, Mrs. Spick Voss, we wish to -express our appreciation for her unselfishly rendered service in giving our school so many good basketball teams. We are proud of our T-E-A-M and our C-O-A-C-H. BOYS BASKETBALL TEAM I think we can! I think we can! I thought we could! With that motto racing through their brains, our boys have almost completed one of the most successful basketball years in the history of our school. The Stokes County Championship Trophy is again in -our possession-it is thanks to Rov Lee Harris and Johnny Newsome, our ace forwards, who have averaged twenty and fourteen points, respectively, per game. But without the impressive ball-handling and eagle-eye shooting of Richard Johnson, Dean Hartgrove, and Bill Watts, we could not boast of our boys basketball team's going to the semi-finals in the State B race and their average of sixty points per game! If we give credit where credit is due, we must congratulate our reserves who have helped to win many games. They are Marcus Kiser, Orbin Kiser, Paul Nance, Billy Bob Barr, Doyle Cromer, Leo Whitman, and Dean Robertson. The managers, C. A. Hunsucker and Junior Grabbs, have been the trustworthy and capable trustees for our boys' team. Our student body, and all people who enjoy basketball, owe much respect and loyalty to our Coach of the Year, Odell T. Neal, and his assistant, J. I. Keiger. lt is impossible to express our thanks for their hard work in producing a team that wins with TEAM- WORK!
