Laney Must Get
First-half
Play Together
By beating the Butler Bulldogs last Saturday night, the Lucy
Laney Wildcats wrapped up the Region IV AAA championship.
The Bulldogs had been the Wildcat’s biggest roadblock to the
region title, having lost by the same 7-0 score in their first
confrontation.
Having won the top honor in the Region, Laney can now
concentrate on finishing the season with an undefeated record.
To do this they must again beat ARC and Baldwin County. The
latter meeting is away in Milledgeville. In either game they can
have their undefeated record tarnished by being upset. The upset
may be avoided,however,if the Wildcats can get their first-half play
together. Throughout the season they have been guilty of poorly
played first halfs, only to come back strong in the second half
and nail down the victory.
Since Laney must play agian after completing their schedule in
order to qualify for further state championship play, there is little
doubt that Coach David Dupree will have to impress upon his
team the importance of alert play from “whistle-beginning” to
“whistle- ending”. The caliber of teams participating for state
honors will dictate this necessity.
ARJ Can Win
It All Saturday
When the A.R. Johnson Panters and the John Tutt Dragons
clash Saturday, the undefeatedPantherswill be shooting for the
championship in junior high school football in Richmond
County. Coach Marion Barnes’ ARJ team has been a most
stubborn defender of its goal all season and has coupled this with
a high-scoring offense that has made them the outstanding junior
high team in the County.
Last week the ARJ boys slapped the highly touted Tubman
Rebels with their first defeat, thereby just about dashing all hopes
of a title for the Rebels. An upset at the hands of Tutt Saturday
night, however, could give Tubman the title and make the strong
ARJ team the runner-up. A very peculiar verbal agreement
between the coaches of ARJ and Tubman has created this
situation. This writer does not have all the facts, but it has to do
with a scheduled game earlier in the season (between the two
teams) that had to be called off.
For ARJ the Saturday night game is a must game, and the Tutt
team will have to bear the brunt of the strong effort of the
Panthers to win.
Eagles' Defense
Folds In 27-20 Loss
In this corner we had always felt that the 1971 T.W. Josey
team had a stout defensive unit. Only recently we stated that the
Josey offense had caught up with the defense, and the team was
winning as a result.
After winning four straight, the Eagles ran smack dab into a
strong and fired-up Thomson High team. The result was a 27-20
loss to the Bulldogs.
The Josey defense wilted in front of the on-rushes of the
speedy low-running Thomson backs. It was a case of not being
able to contain the Bulldogs a sufficient number of times to keep
down the score. Steady grinding down the field was the order of
the evening for the visitors.
The fact that the Bulldogs punted only once during the evening
was evidence that they pretty well had their way with the Josey
defense.
Meanwhile, their defense was holding the Eagles at bay except
for the three explosive scoring plays engineered by the Josey
quarterback and his running mates, Victor Golphin, Herbert Ware
and John Brown.
Paine
Cagers Looking Up
In practice sessions the Paine College Lions are indicating that
they will be bringing local basketball lovers another season of
exciting and well-played basketball. Coach Ernest Tolbert has his
charges hard at work in nightly sessions as he points to the
season’s opener late in this month.
Although there will be several new faces in the Paine lineup,
this season’s team is expected to be one of the strongest
representing the College in several years. This may be attributed
to the fact that Coach Tolbert has better shooters, better ball
handlers and the ingredient of swiftness among his cage
candidates. It is true, however, that this season’s team will be a
bit shorter than the past few years. But this writer feels that it
will make up in swiftness, ball-handling and good shooting what it
lacks in height.

Pictured above is a group of youngsters who live in one of Augusta’s most severe
poverty pockets - Hyde Park. The youths ranging from 7-12 years of age, arrive at
the city dump each Saturday morning at 7 a.m. where amid filth and stench they
unload garbage for whatever tips they are able to get. The boys average $5-6 for a
day’s work.
This week they will go to work as news boys for the News-Review. They will
receive ten cents for each paper sold.

Mclntyre stated.
In Soulville they taught us
that all Gods children were
equal but they forgot to teach
us that even God would not do
for us what we will do for
ourselves.
“Most people feel like the
prime problem of education is
busing, but it is not”. “The
education that my children
receive at Laney or Josey is not
equal to that they would
receive at Butler or
Richmond.”
Mclntyre presented to Dr.
Lucius Pitts, President of Paine
College, a beautiful pen set as a
token of welcome to the
Richmond County
Community. The pen set was a
gift from the Pilgrim Health
and Life Insurance Co.
WEED Cont’d from Page 1
with a black to white ratio in
student enrollment of 70% to
30%. The school
administration is integrated
and there are six black teachers
and six white teachers.
Moderating the PTA session
will be Mrs. Robert Haynie, a
parent. Panelists include the
following parents and teachers:
Mrs. Williams, Mrs. Juanita
White, Mrs. James Hudson, Mr.
Leon Meyer, Mrs. Karen
Nurrell, Mr. John Pickett, Mrs.
Bona Tierce and Mr. Albert
James.
The m ain goal of the
discussion, according to Mrs.
Willaims and the PTA
executive committee, is
two-fold: (1) to evaluate the
progress or lack of progress
being made in education and in
human relations at Weed, and
(2) to focus on areas in which
parents and teachers alike may
work for improvement.
“We are proud of our
accomplishments at Weed,”
says Mrs. Williams, “but this
doesn’t mean we don’t have
our own unique problems. We
have to work constantly at
making our school a better
one, and only through honest
self-appraisal can we reach our
goal of quality education for
all our children, black and
white alike.”

The Female
Do-It-Yourselfer
"Well, what are you doing
now?” I asked my niece as
I entered her dining room
and eyed the mess in the
middle of the floor. She
chuckled as she looked up
from her work. "I’m putting
together a screen to serve
as a room divider,” she re
sponded. And I’m about to
go into fits because I didn’t
have all of the right equip
ment with which to do this
work. No one takes me se
riously when I keep telling
them that I would like to
have a set of tools.”
“You must admit,” I men
tioned, "that it’s a little un
usual for a single girl to
want a set of power tools,”
"Well," she countered, “as
you can see, I’m always do
ing things around the house,
and a set of tools really
would be a big help to a do
it-yourselfer like me.”
Tools for Every Job
“Obviously,” she went on,
“everyone thinks it’s a little
strange. Like the other day
when I was at Sears shop
ping for a piece of metal
screen, I stopped to look
over the power tools. I no
ticed that they were on sale
and thought I might be able
to persuade someone to buy
them (for Christmas) if I had
some prices to quote. The
salesman was really sur
prised when I told him I was
shopping for myself, as I
asked his recommendations
on hand saws, disc sanders,
sabre saws and drills.
Really, I could have used a
drill to advantage on these
screens. Also, I saw several
sets of mechanic’s tools that
I could use as well.”
As she continued, I could
do little more than sigh in
agreement. “All I have to
say is,” she went on, “I’m
going to hint and see who’ll
want to give me tools for
Christmas. Otherwise, if I
don’t get any supporters, I’m
going back to Sears while
their Hardware Week Sale is
still on . . . and buy my own.
After all, there’s such a thing
as a ‘handy-woman’, too.”
