RED SKINS OUTCLASSED
IN CENTRAL CONTEST

The Manteo Red Skins repeat
ed their previous performances
against the Central teams Tues
day at Central, as the Manteo
girls won and the boys lost.
The girls game was much
closer than the previous one. The
Red Skins came from behind in
the third quarter and remained
ahead until the final buzzer. The
final score was Manteo 81, Cen
trail 26. Helen Baum was high
point leader for the Red Skins
with II points.
Central's heighth proved too
much for the Manteo boys for the
second time. The Red Skins were
unable to hit and were never able
to get moving against Central.
Final score was Central 81,
Manteo At. David Simpson was
leading scorer with a low II
points, far below his usual aver
age.
Friday night, February 10, the
teams will travel to Weeksville
where they will again meet the
tough Weeksville Bulldogs. Next
Tuesday, the Red Skins will again
meet Moyock.
