| OVER BELHAVEN
The Aurora Trojans climaxed
Homecoming activities on Friday
night with a pair of wins over visit
ing Belhaven and the crowning of
Carolyn Allen, daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. C. T. Allen as Homecoming
queen.
! The Trojan boys came from be-
hind in the fourth period to over
take the Bulldogs for a 57-52 vic
tory and throw the county race into
a two-way tie for first with Pante-
go.
i Belhaven's boys led all the way
up until about two minutes had
elapsed in the fourth period. The
Bulldogs led by 1924 at the half.
Aurora caught up early in the
fourth frame and went ahead to
stay as Belhaven went cold and
was missing its shots.
Audrey Noble fouled out for the
Bulldogs in the fourth period and
this may have hurt the Bulldog
cause.
| Larry Brinn led the Trojans in
the scoring department with 81
points and played both good floor
game and was outstanding on both
blackboards. Coach Callwell Hus-
ton pointed to the fine work being
done by Gerry Edwards in the last
two games. He scored two points
and along with Floyd Peed and
Jimmie Rice did a good job as re-
serves. Peed hit three straight bas-
Ikets when they, were needed most,
and Rice was outstanding on the
irebounding.
Il The game was nip-and-tuck in
the first three quarters. Belhaven
took the lead 1914 in the first
and led by the single point at the
half and held 47-45 lead at the
end of the third period. 1t was then
that Aurora surged for the lead
after about two minutes had gone
by in the final frame.
