WOMAN'S CLUB MEETING
FOR DECEMBER HELD
Christmas was very much in evi-
dence in the club rooms for the De-
cember meeting of the Homervi11~
Woman's Club. Red candies and bells,
Christmas greens, and pine cones
were used effectively in all the ap-
propriate places.
Mrs. H. C. Morgan and Mrs. M. J.
McDuffie were program chairmen for
the meeting and presented Mrs. F.
W. Jernigan and the Youth Choir in
two Christmas numbers. Next, Mary
Kate Morgan gave two readings sym-
bolic of the Christmas season. Fol-

Weycross
The story in Waycross was quite
different, the Pantherettes turning in
the best playing of the current sea-
son. It was a victory for all, includ-
ing the spectators, but I think a ma-
jority of the credit needs to go to
the guards for holding down Way-
cross' No. 16 from her original 30
points a game to a mere 13. The boys
didn't play up to par and gave us a
denced by the fact that they came
out way behind their opponents when
the final whistle blew. The forwards
played a good game, but Ray City's
beaverettes didn't seem to be able
to miss no matter what the angle
which gave our guards a run for
their money.
The boy's game was a comedy of
errors if foUls are any indication of
such a thing. There were seventy-
two fouls called in this game, Ray
City's whole first string going out
on fouls. The local boys racked up
a score of 62, but if they had played
their usual kind of ball the score
board would probably have run out
of points. The line-ups were as fol-
lows:
Hem. (34) GIRLS Ray City (49)
Gilley, f 15 Bradford, f 9!
Blitch, f 9
