Show Tri-Opine 'G' Squad Gets New Suits Despite the War By the Sportsdesk Vaughn Hendricks Says- "C" Team Gets Suits Even with the National shortage short-age of materials, it so happens that the "C" team receives new football foot-ball suits this year. They came all cleaned and pressed and the midget mid-get grid machine will be expected to keep them that way, according to Coach Long. No dirt, no wallowing wallow-ing in the mud, no grass stains, was the order .given. The suits should be as good at the end of they ear as they are now. The "C" team, too, is expected to win every game and give South a victory. With the promising material on hand, Coach Long should be able to win quite a few games without even soiling the uniforms. Frank Allan Says 1942 A Football Championship Year. With the advent of a new school year, all loyal Southerners are challenged to present South with its first football crown. It was stated in an issue of last year's "Red and Black," East's paper, pa-per, that "It is South's policy to give up hope for a football championship cham-pionship after the first game and begin basketball drills the first week of school." Although given in a jesting mood, there is more truth in that statement than we wish to admit. With the help of every student on the bleachers, we can show botn East and West that South is a great school with three equally great teams. Frank James Says Nate's Great! Although he wouldn't say so himself, Coach Nate Long is about as indispensible to South high in the athletic field as Miss Dyer Is in governing the school. Nate has the ability to bring out the best in his material, as is evidenced by the record achieved by his teams in the past. We have yet to see a team coached by Nate that did not perform to the best of its ability and get results. Let's take the record of the teams that Nate tutored during the 1 past year. The "C" football team took three and lost one. Neither East or West "C" teams did as well. The midget basketball team again went through the season undefeated. un-defeated. Their record now stands at eighteen consecutive wins. But that isn't all. The track team at South last year, was one of the best if not the best that has ever represented South on, the cinder path. m Nate has apparently been able to inject into his teams that spirit Jie himself possessed as an outstanding outstand-ing athlete during his school years. Here s hoping that he continues his stay at South for many years |
