FEBRUARY 16, 1946 V. E. S. on the Air
From one to three times a week the radio program, "The World of Sports," on Station WLVA has been
carrying material about the sc~?o,L The program is sponsored by Phtltp s Brothers and is announced by the station's ace commentator, Wayne Tyler.
J~~n. 17th many V. E. S. boys were late to supper in a vain effort to hear one of their number, Beverly Barge, appear in person on the program. Borge did speak, but his port of the program came long after the start of the evening meal at the school.
The occasion for the special brood- cost was the resumption, to a very limited degree, of athletic relations between V. E. S. and E. C. G'oss High School with the entry of the Iotter school into the City Athletic League. Elias Richards, captain of the high school Junior Varsity team, and Borge, captain of the V. E. S. 17- Yeor-Oid team, were invited to speak. Other speakers were the Rev. Marshall M. Milton, coach of the V. E. S. team, and George Peters, di- rector of the league.
Mr. Tyler, in his closing remark~, expressed his satisfaction at even thts limited resumption of on association which hod been broken off over fif- teen years before. "Feuds ore won- derful," he said, "on the athletic fie'd;, They are no good anywhere else.
"The World of Sports" program has joined the Lynchburg "No vs" in advocating the burial of the hatchet between the two Lynchburg institu- tions. Eorl'cr in the year Mr. Tyler devoted almost half his progrum to this matter, reading in full the edi- torial "Common Sense" from t';e Oc- tober issue of "The Meteor."
