recognition in a large measure
with a boys basketball team
which captured a series of tro-

the best in the south.
This team won the Appalachian

very popular at VIC and are
played by big percent of the
student body. The boys have an
exceptionally strong baseball
team. They have not lost but one
game in the past two years.
Six-man football will probably
be added to the athletic program
next year.

officials of the Appalachian and
