T II E R E D A N D BLACK Page Seven Vienna Is Victor In State Basket Competition Here In a game exciting enough ^ be a fit climax to any basketball tour nament, Vienna high school's wonder five last Saturday night came from behind in the last minute of play to snatch the state basketball title from the grasping hands of a fight ing Athens quintet. The final score was Vienna 20, Athens 18. The game was hard-fought through out, but the boys from South Georgia early in the evening estab lished a lead and only once did they relinquish it. That was when Ath ens by purely outfighting them scrap ped their way into a one-point lead, 18 to 17. Athens held their ad vantage for only a few minutes and then B. Walters, for Vienna, slipped under his opponents to sink a snow bird to put his team back in the lead. Immediately following that Horne, Vienna, made good a free throw and the game ended. This game decided the basketball supremacy of the state out of the 300 teams that entered district tourna ments. Of these 300, only 12 sur vived to make the trip to Athens; of that number Vienna is the only team to make the trip to the national tournament in Chicago. This tournament makes the third that Vienna has won in three weeks. They captured the Cotton States title at Auburn, Alabama, and re turned in time to win their district meet. They then journeyed here to the Classic City to win the state tourney. Vienna and Lanier, Macon, will represent the state of Georgia at the tournament in Chicago. Lanier won the G. I. A. A. title in Macon for the fourth consecutive year, which en titles them to go. Vienna has de feated the Lanier team once this season by the score of 24 to 14. They are meeting again in Macon soon to help defray Lanier's expenses to Chicago.
