Sophs, Freshmen Win
Over Seniors, Juniors
The girls' volleyball teams were
at it again last week with the sen-
iors forfeiting to the sophomores
and the freshmen taking two
straight from the juniors. This is
the second consecutive time that
the senior girls have had to forfeit
because of lack of personnel.
The freshmen won the first game
by a score of 15-!), and won the
second ganMj also, by a score of
15-8. Followmg these two contests
the sophomores beat the fish by a
close margin of 10-14. The rest of
the match between the sophs and
the freshmen was played off last
night at 6 p.m. in the gym.
The girls who participated are
Misses Ann Blair, Linda Love,
Yvonne Grimland, Sandra Sanders,
Dolly Ryon and Jewel Johnson,
freshmen; Misses Linda Warren,
Martha Bryan, Jo Ann Herring,
Vicki Johnson, Pamela Ford, Beth
Daniel and Pat Pearcy, sopho-
mores; and Miss Nelda Scoggins,
Joyce Murray, Karen Kennon,
Sharon Bratton, Anita Anthony
and Hesta Windell, juniors.
With only two minutes left, the
seniors were knowing at the jun-
ior goal line, oii the three-yard
line, preparing for what would
seem to be the clinching score.
However, the juniors took advan-
tage of a fumble and things seem-
ed to have cooled off. But on the
third play from scrimmage the
seniors broke through the junior
wall and dropped Eldon Ray in his
own end zone for a safety, and two
more points. The score now read
20-26, seniors.
A crucial play then developed
as the juniors, in the person of
Bill Childress, intercepted a lateral
in the air and was eventually stop-
ped on the senior 10-yard line. The
deciding play of the game was
about to unfold, as Ray again hit
Johnny Nabors in the end zone
for the game-winning touchdown.
Ray completed one to Jerry Brow-
der for the extra point, and the
score was now 33-29, in favor of
the juniors. This last touchdown
play was executed with only
twelve seconds remaining in the
game, and turned out to be the
most important.
In Thursday night's game, the
sophomores failed to turn out in
the necessary quota, and the sen-
ior's won ■ ifty forfeit. The sopho-
mores having only seven men were
given fifteen minutes to round
up two more, but failed. Therefore,
those that were there divided up
among themselves and played,
with the sophomores (including a
few others) beating the seniors
that played by a score of 34-20.
This week the freshmen again
return to action as they draw a
double header both Monday and
Thursday nights.

credit is due — mainly to the ref-
This massacre to which we make
mention was the annual Powder
freshman and sophomore girls. At
times it vaguely resembled the Cu-
ban revolution, where other times
it resembled, very, very vaguely, a
football game. It was concluded
by a "small brawl" which would
put the Kennedy-Nixon debates in
the shade.
It is hard to pick out any out-
standing highlights of the game
which may refer to football. How-
sense of play and conscientious-
ness of sportsmanship that the
game ended as close as it did, 1963-
0, in favor of you-know-who. Those
1963 points the sophomores
"chalked up' might have had some,
vague reference to the year in
which that certain class will re-
ceive their diplomas from TWC.
There were a few oddities
noticed about the brand of foot-
bail that was played in the game.
For instance, whenever a time out
was called, and there were plenty,
the managers for the freshman
squad would race to the huddle car-
rying not water, but lipstick and
powder. How refreshing it must
have been.
