To The Student Body, Faculty and the Public Just a word in regard to the great spirit shown our foot hall team on last Friday when leaving for Greensboro to play one of the hardest games of the season. Friends, eleven boys and a coach can’t win foot ball games; it takts your help and by this we won one of the best games we expect to win this season. Asa coach we have the best that can be found any where for a High school. He loves the game; he loves the boys, in fact his whole heart is with it all the way. We consider ourselves very fortunate in having Coach Page as our instructor. He wins the heart of every boy he comes in contact with. Asa team, no nicer set of boys can be found, even if I am u member, for they abide by the rules and play a clean game. As we hoarded the big truck! to sta,rt our journey toward Greensboro the entire student body and faculty were crowded ou the grounds giving us yells, singing songs, and wish ing for us a victory. Friends, this did the coach and team world's of good ; it made us believe that you really thought of us as we were lighting the game it filled the heart of every one full of joy and we entered the game determined to win regardless of cost and that we did b.V bringing home a 7 to 0 victory. Ou our return we found the faculty and a majority of the student body awaiting our return and with it they had prepared a lion tire at \alley Paik and there we found a number of citi zens to help us enjoy the occasion af ter an hour spent in giving yells, sing ing songs and talking of our victory. We were carried to the home of Mrs. W. H. Quarterman there to find every thing imaginable to eat being prepared by the teachers and the high school girls. In behalf of the team and myself I •extend our appreciation for such an enjoyable occasion and we will try and uphold the high standard of the Winder High School. Respectfully, PERRY HILL, Captain.
