Chosen
One of the divisions of the Liter- ary contests held with Saint Christ- opher's each year is a public reading. The try-outs for this were held in the Library on Wednesday night, February 12. The readings at that time were all at sight, but in the final contest to be held some time in the near future in Study Hall there
will be a prepared, as well as a sight reading. Mr. Mattfield and Mr. Ladd, both of the V. E. S. faculty acted as judges, selecting four boys to complete in the finals. Those chosen were Norvell, Lasher, Ran- dolph, and Hairston, P. Norvell won the state championship last year and should be able to put up some
b
contest to defeat the V. E. S. ag- gregation by the score of 59-45, at Fork Union on Wednesday after- noon, February 19. For three quar- ters V. E. S. held the upper hand and clung tenaciously to a small lead, but the last period proved to be the downfall of the Garnet and
White team when a desperate rally was put on by the home team. Gay, stellar forward for Fork Union, wab the high point man, getting 20 of
his team's points. He accom-
which proved to be the V. E. S. downfall tarted off more or less the same and it looked as if V. E. S. would cling to its small lead and win by a close score; but the Cadets
thought differently, and they decided among themselves to remedy the trouble. So a time out was called an_d they got together and talked tlungs over. ·when play was re- sumed they put on a dazzling rally an~ made their shots good to start ptlmg up a decisive lead. It was at this time that Gay made his
great run of eleven straio-ht points.
