My commission expires at the pleasure of* the Governor. The Presibyterian Blue Hose got back on the winning road after their Christmas holidays by downing a stubborn Lyman Paficics cage squad 69 to 61. ' Hose men Down Lyman . Behind Willy Dwight Groninger’s 25 points the Presbyterian hard wooders came from behind a big lead by the Pacifies in the last few min- ut^es of the game Jo add* another win to their grand total. The Presbyterians were held at a safe distance behind the Lymans for almost the entire game but the hose- men finally caught fire from the spark held by Willy Groninger and began playing the kind of ball the Cintomans had seen before the Christmas holidays.' * A-t the outset of the game the blue team floundered as though it was the first time they had set fo(>t on a basketball court. Big Ed Thomp son appeared to be a little nervous and the whole team just couldn’t get together. Presbyterian’s* usually smooth working plays just -wouldn't click and at one time they, were trailing the Pacififs by a 29 to 10 score. In the second half the Presbyter ians began showing up as they did in the pre-holidays days. Lew Hawkins began taking the ball off the back board on^ the re-r bound and Willy Groninger began hitting the basket along with Kay Hill, who had been connecting -all through the game. Hill and Gronniger were the only two Blue Hosers who remained at their own constant good ball"play ing. . . The Blue Hose w»ll have a lot of work ahead of them before they are ready for their tilt with Mercer,, of Georgia, but no one seems to be worried as to whether they will be ready. Knowmg -Ctaude Crocker ev eryone just takes it for granted* that they will be at a fine peak for the game. Freeman Makes All-State Curtis Freeman, Clinton high’s holder -of the most valuable trophy for the season of 1949/cdras been named to Rev. Bell’s all state team. Bell picks his all state team be cause he thinks that a lot of boys should be on an all state team who aren’t because of the prejudice of a lot of newspapers since the. papers want to put a lot of local boys on their all state squad. Bell makes a pretty accurate survey and is rec ognized by most sports writers as one of the best al state pickers in the state. Bell announced Freeman’s honor J - . - ' in *a letter to Coach Wilmot Shealy seen Hamptoa in action. (The list "will be pubished later), j High School Prep* For Greenwood In the letter Bell-also stated that lut The ciimon high Red Devils began realized that Clinton had an out-#!p re ppi n g f 0r encounter be-’ standing squad although it was great-: fore they hang up their uniforms to ly underrated, said that Clinton . take the m^^erm exams. This last i had one of the best teams in the ! state and that he realized if others j didn’t, that the Clinton-Newberry game was one b£ fhe biggest upsets, of the year .in high’ school fdotha’.T of this sTate. Bell named freeman do his team’, because of' his outstanding ability not only as a break away rynner but ; also as a good punter. The run Cur tis made in the Horse Bowl, in Can\- den, against the stiffest competition in the state was the final “clincher”! ( for the Rev. who had. his eye on | Freemah for the entire season. Freeman made Bell’s first team ini | his selection and h'e’s up there with some of the better advertised backs of the state, such as Parker’s’ big: 'Blaekey Durham and Georgetown’s! Sweatt (who is supposed to be one 1 the best all aropnd backs this i .state has seen in many-“moons”). I Richard Hampton, CJmton quarter back, and Eugene , Simmons, guard,, were also highly considered for pos-! itions on the team. Hampton’s size migfit-bave been a strike against him since the Rev. Bell had only his size as a consideration smee he hadn't encounter will; be a battle with Greenwood. Clinton will be out for sweet re-' venge since the Greenwood Emer alds took a double header from the Devils in their last encounter. •. — Belk's Store Here Closed Tuesday Belk’s store here was closed Tues day due to the death of Dr, William D.
