  • February 2, 1948 THE WESTERN CAROLINIAN PAGE FIVE Wrestlers Display Talent In Second Match Of Season Hensley's Grapplers Give mountaineers Kush For Money The bone-benders from Appalachian cnaiked up another win for their team here January 20, but not with the case that had been anticipated. Coach Hensley's boys, though outclassed, showea tneir spirit by giving the Mountaineers a run for their money in <:very match and winning the heavyweight match by a pin. In. the 121 lb. division, Charlie Clayton was pinned in the first period by Jeneson of Appalachian. Clayton was accidentally hit by Jeneson's knee and was practically unconscious when he was pinned. David Bird ot W. C. T, C. in the 128 lb. class was outclassed by Daney of Appalachian. Bird stayed with his man for three grueling rounds but lost the decision by a 7 to 0 count. In the 135 lb. class Atkinson encountered Griffith, one of Appalachian's wrestlers. Atkinson offered stiff competition but was finally pinned in the second period. Don Thames and Sellars of Appalachian were featured in the 145 lb. division. Thames managed to avoid a pin and displayed noteworthy talent regardless of his inexperience. In the 155 lb. class Torn Garlandj one of the Catamounts' few experienced grapplers, held McLean to a meager 3 point victory. Garland was a constant threat throughout the match. Jack McCrackens bout in the 165 lb. class was uneventful since he was injured in the early part of the first period and the match was conceded to Tomick, National AAU champion, of Appalachian. The 175 lb. division afforded the spectators the comedy for the afternoon. Luquire, "The Dancing Boy," from W.C.T.C, had Harris of Appalachian confused with his unique style and his repeated playfulness. However, Harris awoke from bis state of confusion and promptly pinned "Luke" in the second round. Incidentally Luquire is wrestling during the absence of Monroe, and when told he was to wrestle, he s a i d to Coach Hensley, "Coach, teach me one hold before the match starts." The single victory for W.C.T.C. came In the unlimited heavyweight division when Wilson "Pop" Goodson wrestled Sanely of Appalachian. It was a close match until the third period when "Pop" showed some of his tricks and pinned him. rirst iuad. 35—Boodleville lb Tne strong rirst macason team rompofl. oyex. tne .isoouieviiie team uu January 16, do to io.

From the start there seemed little evidence but that the Fourth would win. Everh&rt with 11 and Whitaker with C led the Fourth while Third having practically no offense had no real leader. LOST OPPORTUNITY His car and her car met head- on. Both drivers got out and, with that fine courtesy so characteristic of motorists nowadays, both began to apologize profusely. 'To so sorry," said the woman. "It was all my fault." "Not at all, madam," the man responded with a gallant gesture. "I was to blame myself." "But I insist the fault was mine. I was on your side of the road." "That may be true; but. my dear madam, I am responsible for the collision. I saw you coming blocks way, and I had ample opportunity to dart down a side street** Day Stud. 12—2nd Mad. 24 The red-hot Day Students defeated Second Madison 42 to 24 on January 15 in the intramural league. The Day Students were in complete control of the game most of the way. Claxton with 10, Battle with 9, and Lowe with 7 led the scoring for the town boys Second divided the scoring equally among four starters. COOPERATION "Someone has blended the plaster, Someone has carried ihe stone: Neither the man nor the master Ever has bullded alone." Coney Iceburgers In Flight ;^-™>;.. ICEBURG ATHLETIC CLUB MEMBERS Ed Sorocki and Simeon Stimburis take a dive from the Coney Island, N. Y., boardwalk into the 25.8 inches of snow covering the beach. Later, the Iceburgers went for an invigorating swim in the wintry Atlantic Ocean. B-r-r-r-r! (International) Spotting The Sports By H. £. Griffin It has come to the attention of this writer ^that some of the local people think that it is impossible for one of our ball players to commit a foul. This is not true. Everyone fouls and I am sure everyone, if they stop to think, will agree that it does little good for the ccovi'd to boo an officials or an opponent. Sure, that is what the average American sports fan pays for, the privilege of disagreeing with the official, but it only leaves a bad taste with the officials and opposing players. The local institution is good compared to some places that our teams have played and will play, but why not strive for perfection. I have booed plenty and been booed too, but why couldn't we aU look at it in the light that if our boys are playing away what kind of courtesy would they deserve. One thing that is bad is having so much noise when an opponent is at the free throw line. Quiet please. All officials make mistakes. Even the immortal Bill Klem admits he missed one. Usually the official is in the best position to see the act and he knows the rules better than the average fan. The wrestling team has made Its debut and gave the fans a good show. But there is still the problem of etrpenses. It seems that they can't charge students admission since it is a school organization but still the Athletic Association won't give them any money to operate on. Sort of a tricky situation. When the hat Is passed at matches remember that the boys need the change yon were going to buy the new Buick, for someone else, with. The basketball team is going great Both the players and Coach "Tuck" are doing a grand job. Take the old saying, some you lose, some you win, and some are snowed out, but give your best and the fans can't complain. It looks like we will be in the tournament with a pretty fair record. Last year we were more or less a surprise team in the conference tournament, only to lose in the last 10 seconds of the finals. But we did get the trip to K. C. This year we won't be too much of a dark horse. We have played the better teams in " the conference and have a .500 per cent average. Tate is still hitting the hoop with consistence and has been recently considered as the "Player of the Week" by the Greensboro Daily. Shucks, we even got on the front page of the Asheville paper. What can stop us now? By the way, if you don't have too much studying on these cold, snowy nights and it is too bad to go to the movie or Rat's, why not come down for the intramural basketball games? The boys play on Tuesday and Thursday nights when the varsity or the high school isn't playing and tha giris on Wednesday nights. WISE MAIDEN He was driving her home from the dance. It was past midnight very dark, and the road was lonely. Suddenly the car stooped, the young man got out, looked the car over, turned to the girl and said: "What a break. The gas tank seems to be full of water and we can't move a foot." The girl gave a sigh and said: "Come inside. This has happened to me before. Ali we have to do now is sit and argue for a while and the water turns right back into gasoline." "When Is your sister thinking of getting married." "Constantly."
