Our High School Eleven de
feated Newport High on the
local gridiron this, Friday, after
noon with a score of 48 to 0.
Winfree and Rhodes never failed
to make big gains at every op
portunity. The team work of
our boys was excellent while
Newport fumbled many times.
Following the above game the
High School Basket Ball Girls
defeated the Newport ladies
7 to 5 in a fast game. Florence
Kyle and Margaret Hargis starred
for the locals. Bessie Graham
and Dorsey tfullard’s work for
the visitors was perfect.
Of course you are beginning to
think of Christmas now. Think
of Wherry’s where you can get
Toys, Dolls and all kinds of
Christmas goods. Adv
