l Coach John Harris was espe
cially happy with Smith’s play.
“He got on the boards real good,
and showed some scoring abil
ity,” Coach Harris said.
Smith’s play may have solved
one of Coach Harris’ problems.
He is searching for two play
ers to go with starters Harry
Murphy, Robert Anderson and
Doug Pack, returnees off last
year’s team.
16
Douglas Pack kept up the
Green’s scoring pace in the se
cond half when Coach Harris
rested Smith so he could look at
younger players.
Pack tossed in 17 points and
was effective on the boards.
Another surprise was the 20
point production from John Mil
ner. a small but scrappy gu
ard. Greg Vaughn’s two points
rounded out the Green’s scoring.
As expected, Harry Murphy
and Robert Anderson were the
leaders of the White team. An
derson popped in 17 points. Coa
ch Harris figures he’ll be one of
the Eagles’ leading scorers.
Murphy, a real jumping-jack,
tossed in 15 points and showed
off his jumping ability by block
ing several shots.
Keith Jones scored six points
for the White team. Billy Tiller
made two, Randy Jones three
and Steve Bozeman one.
With Smith almost a shoo-in
for the fourth starting position,
Coach Harris has turned his at
tention to the fifth spot. He has
four or five candidates for the
spot. High on the list are Boze
man, Milner, Vaughn and Ran
dy Jones.
Some observers thought the
White team had the best scor
ing punch. However, it didn’t
work out that way.
The fine performances of Sm
ith and Milner, who had 42
points between them, and a good
Milner Falcons
Flint Academy,
The Milner boys and girls
are now playing over .500 ball
after victories Tuesday night in
Woodbury.
For the first time this season
both teams won on the road.
The Milner girls shocked Flint
River Academy 41-37 and the
Falcons followed up with a 69-59
victory.
It was a sweet victory for the
girls, who lost their opening
game to Flint River Academy in
five overtimes.
“The girls had revenge on
their minds,” Coach Chuck Mil
ler said. “They got it.”
Milner took an 18-14 halftime
lead and stayed ahead to the fi-
game from Pack, was too much
for the Murphy-Anderson com
pany to handle.
Coach Joe Burson was pleased
with the girls’ intra-squad game
considering it was the team’s
first scriumage. He was happy
with performance of his sopho
mores.
Jane Luke may have claimed
a forward spot with her 17 point
game.
Reba Hall, the only starter for
a year ago, made only eight po.
ints. Coach Burson said she did
n’t shoot enough.
Ginger Piland scored three po
ints for the Green team and
Becky McDearmid and Beth Gr
iffin made two.
Leslie Lee was top scorer for
the White team with 13 points.
Donna Dillard and Cindy Cody
scored six, Dru Dixon four and
Ginger Piland two.
The most effective guards!
were Pam Jones, Pam Robison,
Glinda Lyons, Cathy O'Dell,
Maria Moses, Cynthia Reid, Con
nie Butler and Sara Simpson.
Tamar Weaver, assistant girls’
coach, kept a keen eye on the
young players. “I believe we’ll
have a fine team in the next two
or three years,” she said.
The Griffin teams open the;
1968-69 season Tuesday night ag
ainst arch-rival Milner High.
The games will be played in
Griffin.

Judy Walters scored 19 points,
Debbie Trice made 13 and Bob

Brenda Mann, Julie Henry,
Dianna Buchanan and Barbara
Dukes played the guard posi
tions. They drew praise from
their coach.
“This was the best guard play
we’ve had all season,” he said.
The Falcons raised their re
cord to 5-4 with the 69-59 win.
Coach Miller used every play

Pike Pirates Romp
East Coweta, 82-67
One of two teams may slip
up on the Pike Pirates before
the 1968-69 season is history but
from early indications Coach
Walker Cook’s fabulous five are
untouchable.
The Pirates’ high-scoring ma
chine shook up East Coweta 82-
67 Tuesday night before taking
the Thanksgiving holiday break.
The Pirates are idle until Tues
day when triple-A R. E. Lee
visits in Zebulon.
Coach Cook calls that game a
true test for his eagers.
The Pike girls also found the
winning touch Tuesday night as
they rolled to a 53-43 victory. Ca
rol Sandefur scored 27 points, a
record for her.
Patricia Dukes made 18 a n d
Lynn Wilson scored eight.
Rosemary Dunn, Madge St

Who Is Best
Rick Barry
Or Hawkins?
By L'nited Press International
The easiest way to start an
argument in the American
Basketball Association this sea
son is to ask whether Rick
Barry of the Oakland Oaks or
Connie Hawkins of the Minneso
ta Pipers is the better player.
“Barry!” shout Oakland sup
porters and point to the former
National Basketball Association
star’s 34-point per game scoring
average.
“Hawkins!” yell Minnesota
fans and point to his all-around
performance.
Both stars had big games
Tuesday night when Barry
scored 35 points as the Oaks
downed the New Orleans
Buccaneers 121-108 at New
Orleans and Hawkins scored 30
points in the Pipers’ 119-108
triumph over the Kentucky
Colonels at Duluth, Minn.
The Oaks’ 14th victory in 16
games widened their lead in the
Westenn Division of the ABA to
games while the Pipess’
eighth win in 12 games gave
them a one-game lead in the
East.
Doug Moe supported Barry’s
scoring with 19 points and
James Jones led New Orleans
with 33. Jim Ligon scored 24 for
the Colonels as the Pipers held
the high-scoring combination of;
Louis Dampier and Darel |
Carrier to a total of 36 points, j
Lonnie Wright scored 34
points to lead the Denver
Rorkets to a 115-109 victory i
over the Dallas Chaps in the |
other Tuesday night game. |
Player-coach Cliff Hagan scored |
24 for the Chaps.
Oliver, Randy Daniel, Ledalle
Mangham, Bobby Connell, Eddie
English and Charles Bean play
ed but didn’t score.
The Pirates take the holiday
break with a 6-0 record.
