The Ashe County High School
Basketball Tournament brought g
lot of sports fans, past, present
and future, as well as the stars OF
every age, in review.
One of the things we have en-
joyed most in connection with
high school sports in Ashe coun'
ty. is basketball and as we watch
ed the Virginia-Carolina and
Fleetwood girls play off the fl
nails, to be followed by Elkland-
West Jefferson, we were, as US
ual, impressed with the fine
craftsmanship. There is some
thing about the syncronism and
speed of basketball that com
pletely fascinates us.
Back From The Wars!
A lot of former players and
coaches, formerly in service,
were much in evidence. Kyle
Dickson, former principal at Elk
land, was the high bidder on the
ball used in the tournament, sold
at auction, which brought the
sum of $500. This was lucky
ball for the Elkland team, but
with their luck, those tall, rangy
lads displayed plenty of skill
Dale Atwood and Oscar Houck
both of whom have coached some
crack teams, were bach on the
job. incidentally, they both have
seen several months in service.
Carrying On Tradition.
Carlton Miller was fighting
hard on the West Jefferson team
carrying on the tradition of the
Miller family and R. c., now
back from service, was able to
enjoy it all from the sidelines
r. c. is captain of the all-sta1
team that plays the tournament
winners in a benefit game for the
Red Cross on Friday night. Carl
ton carries out a real tradition;
for all of the Miller boys and
girls have been excellent play
ers. Carl Wyrick was also con-
tinuing the fine record of the
Wyrick boys and girls.
Small Fans In Evidence
There were plenty of small
fans on hand. Sara Hunter was
enjoying the games almost as
much as her father, DR.. j. K
Hunter. Phil and David McMil-
Ian were also thrilled and excit-
ed. Other youngsters were do
ing much yelling, whether they
knew what it was all about OF
not.
Entertainment For All
The enjoyment of the tourna-
ment was not confined to the
younger set. L. P. Coward, popu-
lar cashier of the Northwestern
Bank, was present much of the
time. And if you can find more
enthusiastic fans than he, it will
be a hard matter. DR.. and Mrs
Dean Jones are also keenly in
terested. We can't begin to name
them all, but we sat next to MIR,
and Mrs. Fred GRAPHICAL on one
occasion and we could not decide
whether they were enjoying
more than their son, recently re-
turned from service and their
daughters, who sat on the other
side.
Hats Off To Officials.
To Professor Herbert GRAPHICAL,
president of the county athletic
association, to Principal j. B.
Hash, of Jefferson, and to all OF
the others who helped to make
the tournament a success, we Of
fer our congratulations. The en-
tire tournament was well plan
ned and carried out. We feel it
meant much to the students as
well as to the people of Ashe

thrilled by 4:12 or better hunter mile race.
 Hansenne, while making his Am erican competitive debut in New York last week, permitted Les Mac Mitchell, the best of our homebred milers to set his own pace and romp home, well ahead of him and Tommy Quinn, the national cross country titlist, after giving dull 4:19 performance.
 The Fench star, however, plans to go out at the gun in his Boston Garden start and. while ignoring MacNIitchell, run against the clock. Marcel. who has a win over Gun der (Der vunder) Haegg to ris credit, figures 59-64-64 for his first three quarters. If he can maintain that schedule and top it with a 65-second finish, he will be home in 4:12.
 After moping for three-quarters in the Wanamaker, MacMitchell turned on the heat and finished with blistering 583. Provided Hansennes time plans carry and MacA1itchell stays up close enough, the spectators may be in for their first postwar mile treat.

BEAU APPEARS RUNNING DOWN
 IN GRECO MIx
Perpetual Motion Missing as Jack Goes 10 Draw
 with Canadian
By Sid Feder

NEW YORK, Feb. 9.-Ever since Beau the Jumping Jack came down the pike to win and lose the light weight championship and commit general mayhem on a lot of other fellows, they've been saying his buzzsaw style was carbon copy of the perpetual motion machine Henry Armstrong.
 And today the Jacobs Beach beacheombers were wondering if maybe the Jumping Jacks engine hadn't run down and burned out just as suddenly and somewhat the same way Hammerin' Henrys did few years back.
 A l to betting choice, the Jumping Jack managed to get only a ten-round draw in Madison Square Garden last night with ele- vator Johnny Greco, the up-and- down Canadian, and about the best you can say for the Jumping Jack was that any resemblance between his buzzsawing and Armstrong's annihilating was purely coincident- al. As matter of fact, the way the
