ing and returned about mid
night! Among the local places
visited by the choir were most
of the Carrollton Churches and
the Carroll Theatre. They also
took part in a Memorial Service
at the City Hall.
“All work and no play makes
Jack a dull boy.” Deciding that
this old adage was quite true,
they finished the last quarter’s
work in style by giving a “jam
up” picnic at Spence’s Lake, Sat
urday, May 20. Methods of trans
portation consisted of such
breezy items as wagons with
runaway mules and a couple of
station wagons. After swimming
and dancing all afternoon (not
to mention eating), they all
gathered out near 'the lake for
games. Several of those present
mentioned the fact that Miss
Woodruff was the main cheer
leader for Nix and Yates. “’Nuff
said!”

WOMEN’S SPORTS
The favorite spot on the cam
pus for the last two weeks as
you probably know, has been
the athletic field where games
and games of softball are being
played.
8:00 A with Mildred Forbes
as captain, and 8:00 B with
Joyce Henderson as its captain
played the first game of the
class tournament. Both teams
offered good playing but team
B defeated A when Joyce Hen
derson and Mary Ruth Panter
decided they were to play or
lose. The score was 3 for 8:00 A
and 7 for 8:00 B.
The second game of the series
was between 10:45 A and 10:45
B. Glenn Crowder, captain, and
Louise Broadrick showed how
softball should be played for
team A. However, Betty Shat
tuck and Jean Styles, captain,
played hard for the defensive
side. Team A won by a score of
14-9.
The 2:10 classes furnished the
next game with Nancy McClure
as captain of * A and Betty Pat
rick, captain of B. Opal Beck,
Betty Patrick, Saidee Scott, Bes
sie White, Dot Tanner, and
Jeanette Echols showed they
were not beginners as the game
ended with 19-7 as the score. Bet
ty Dyer and Gussie Jim Moseley
played well for the losing side.
The last game played was be
tween 10:45 A and 2:10 B. Again
Crowder, captain of 10:45 A,
Hobbs, and Broadrick were on
the loose, Beck and Patrick
weren’t so bad for team B. The
score for this match turned out
to be 14-2 in favor of 10:45 A.
The final game between 10:45
A and 8:00 B. was played off
Monday afternoon May 29. The
results of this game determined
the softball champs.
TENNIS
The tennis doubles tourna
ments have all been played.
Exactly sixty-four girls partici
pated in these games.
The winners of 8:00 class were
Evans and Bozeman with Heath
and Grimsley as runners-up.
10:45 class champs turned out
to be Hulsey and Moseley after
finally defeating Houston and
Wilkes. *
Kidd and Moseley won over
Putman and Scott in the 1:15
class.
Beck and Echols were final
winners in the 2:10 class. How
ever, Davis and Sinback offer
ed good competition.
The advanced tennis tourna
ment ended with Phyllis Evans
as champion. Phyllis played a
good game when she met with
Claudia Walters for the finals.
Claudia won over Beck in the
semi-finals by a close score.
Phyllis, the champ, is good in
l-eeeiving, serving, and cutting
the ball, but is even better in
placing it; strategy, no doubt.
Congratulations Phyllis for be
ing winner!

THE WEST GEORGIAN
MEN’S SPORTS
TENNIS
Tennis is the high light of
sports at W. G. C. this spring.
All the students are interested
and keep the courts busy.
SINGLES TOURNAMENT
In order to select the tennis
champ, volunteers planned a
tournament. Carl Howe, “Mouse”
a sophomore, won the singles
tournament after a hard and
bitter battle against Troy Bar
ion. Both boys were very tense
and on the alert each moment.
A large crowd attended the
game and were attentive during
the entire match. The final
score was (4-6) (6-3) (6-4).
DOUBLE TOURNAMENT
After the single tournament,
partners were chosen for a dou
ble tournament.
Willard Bartley, a freshman,
and Carl Howe were the win
ners.
Perry Rowe and Frank Thom
asson went to the final game
but were defeated.
This was considered the best
game played at W. G. C. this
year. The four boys were in top
shape and really put the ball
across the net.
The final game was cut to the
winner of one set because of
bad weather. The final score
was (4-2).
SOFTBALL
Because of a shortage of men
at W. G. C. this spring, softball
games with outside teams were
not organized.
The boys played a few games
among themselves but did not
get enough practice to face an
opponent.
ISSUE OF ANNUAL
STILL UNCERTAIN
The fate of The Chieftain still
rests in the balance. After hav
ing been assured when the ma
terial was sent to the publishers
in March that there was ample
time and that it would be out be
fore the end of the spring quart
er, Mr. Adams and the staff have
been notified that this may not
now be possible. The delay is
due to the shortage of workers
at the printers where the annual
is published.
Only one of the annuals put
out this year by these publishers
definitely will be on time. Two
others, one of which is The Chief
tain,, possibly may be out by the
last day of this quarter. All
others will be delayed until some
time in the summer.

FACULTY PRESENTS
SECOND LYCEUM
Monday night, May 6, the
second of the lyceum numbers
sponsored by the faculty appear
ed in the auditoriums. For one
hilarious hour the students and
faculty were entertained by Mr.
Scheetz and Company, Magic

Scheetz cut off a few arms, made
a few pigeons, rabbits, and
guinea pigs appear and disap
pear, and made his cards jump
up and answer when called.
The whole crowd enjoyed it a
lot, but say they’re still wonder
ing what became of that duck!
