David Mclntosh, pastor of Leavell Woods Methodist Church in Jackson, as guest speaker. The presentations of awards to outstanding players of the Tiger gridiron team were made. Rev.

The Gibson High Cagers were confronted with a rugged season this year. Although the team netted only a 14-15 record, Tiger fans know the season was more successful than the scoreboard indicated. Several contests were extremely close, such as the three point loss to Laurel and two four point losses to Brookhaven. Besides several close defeats, the varsity squad scored some narrow victories. Among these wins was a cliff hanger with our tradi- tional rival, South Pike, in which the Tigers de- feated the Bearcats 58-57 in overtime. Highlighting the season were victories over the strong Gloster and Vicksburg teams. The second game with the Vicksburg Greenies prov- ed to be another thriller ending in overtime with McComb spurting ahead 73-67. In the South Pike and McComb Invitational Tournaments the Tigers, fighting hard and reaching the finals, finished both tournaments as runners-up. Coaches Bennie Kimble and Tryce Barber plan their strategy for the season. 75 Lloyd Bennett stretches to control the tip-off.
