WINDER BOYS AND GIRLS
WIN DISTRICT HONORS
Winder should feel proud of her rep
resentatives in the Ninth Congressional
School Aleet last week at Commerce.
While Winder High lost the cups,
the total points made by the individ
ual contestants in the several events
exceeded those of any other school.
No stronger team of debaters have
ever represented Winder High on oc
jeasions of this kind than Aliss Edith
House and Alton Young. They have
never known defeat, so far winning all
along the line, and we hope the same
success will attend them in the State
meet this summer.
A bright star on Winder's Athletic
team was Dumont Harrison, sou of Mr.
and Airs. A. T. Harrison. While Winder
lost the cup to Lawrenceville, in one
of the events, the Pole Vault, Dumont
broke the state record. He also won
the 220-yard dash, and was only defeat
ed by a fifth of a second in the 100-yard
dash. There were few events on the
Athletic field in which Winder boys
did not show. Kench Carpenter won
the shot put, second place in the High
Jump and third place in the Hurdles.
Alton Youngjcame second in the broad
jump, and the team composed of Du
mont Harrison, Leon Perry, Kench Car
penter and Lugree Jacobs came second
in the relay event.
Aliss Ina Appleby, who represented
Winder In Alusic, made third place.
The meet, was one of the most suc
cessful ever held in the Ninth District
from many standpoints and the hospi
tality shown the visitors and contest
ants by the people of Commerce were
such as to call forth expressions of
praise from Winder visitors and to
leave pleasant memories in the minds
of all.
In another column you will find a
report of the meet from Commerce.
