Who says virtue doesn't have its rewards? Witness Buckingham County . drive for Sl(i.000 to build a lighted athletic field adjacent to Eucktajham-Central High School. No. ;hut . i.ol lo ay that Buckingham-Central's District 3 basketball champions .; :!■ ly responsible for the sudden surge in athletic interest acr -. the Appomattox River. We do say that Coach Bill Hupp'- leadership and the clean, sportsmanlike conduct of his 1956-57 * urt quad had a lot to do with the psychology behind the move. H using $10,000 require- pocket-emptying and folks prefer to give sin a they feel their investment will pay dividends In that respect ilupp's leadership and his boys response created the atmosphere lor tiie "no ahead" sign in Buckingham. I Iks over there have had - ueh a project in mind for some time, In : the tiling jelled undei the impact of a basketball team whose ci . duct and appearance were the talk of the best judges of youthful n i: uywhere around- the mothers and fathers of District 3 high . ehool kids We know, because we heard them talk about it! Si slowly but .-uidy. District 3 leaves the sunshine for the .••id ol night-time competition We’ve never been certain that the .'. ii.cn-ivM lias been for the best interest of youths, but these are ■H ui.' of great public inter''.->1 in high school athletics. They’re a pa public form of recreation now. and handled by firm coaches and principal and encouraging parents they can be controlled- and it must be to be of benefit commensurate with the expense.

Hickey Could Have Had it: A at or v by Steve Guback in a Richmond Times-Dispatch edition is ! aV mvs that Jim Hickey, former Hampden-Sydney football -•.nil. VMi.- the No. 1 choice of the administration at William arid Mary for the football coaching job. Hickey was gone after while some 40 candidates more applied for the job. President. Alvin Duke Chandler, according to Guback. i inferred at Williamsburg Sunday and Hickey followed with a nega tive answer by telephone from Chapel Hill two days later. Guback's story has the authority of a big corporation behind it and the earmarks of authenticity, and it gets even more authority m tiie Hickey background A Pennsylvanian and a graduate of William and Mary with an illustrative .career as an athlete there. Hickey is known as a thorough football man and certainly a strong hand with discipline and prepa rations. Reports out of Chapel Hill all indicate that Hickey’s present doss. Jim Tatum, tire maestro of college football save perhaps Okla homa's Bud Wilkerson. is more than pleased with his youngish backfield coach. By the same token. Hickey isn't fretting while ab sorbing the Tatum methods of big time recruiting, organization, .raining and coaching, Hickey, who never flinched when looking facts straight in the face wasn't of a mind to get the full coaching treatment only to art out on the fringes of the big time, with support from an admini stration that isn't sure which way it wants to go athletically. We suspect the W&M coach will be a high school man on the way up not a good college man, who with very good reason would look at it from present Williamsburg actions, as a step down.

Athletics and Missed Classes: H .ward R. Richardson, executive secretary of the Virginia High School League twhich is the controlling organization behind all high school athletic activities in Virginia*, says sports do not cause too many absences from the classroom. H-- based his answer on a year-long survey of attendance records at high schools in District J. which embraces Buckingham County, along \y;ih five more counties and the City of Charlottesville. Tie VHSL secretary . surv* •. shows that only 6.6 per cent of all da s abs aces in the sen;.; yar resulted from students being ex cused to compete in athletics. That- percentage, incidentally, corre sponds exactly to that caused by excuses to permit students to work. Thai s a small percent a ..e of the 28.554 recorded absences, but even that much serves to underscore the necessity of the usually "revered" c ich to make the time profitable by good methods, disci pline and encouragement of the best qualities in his players. Other wise th*’ Ikst place is the classroom' Side Line Shorts: f !■ ARMVILLE'S Billy Franklin gave up only seven hits the other dav. but no attack behind him gave Maryland a 3-1 win over the N. C .Shit e squad. Opposing him on the mound was the Turps' Sopho more .ii'!'. Fred Gebbardt, who allowed five hits. Franklin had a no hilt.er going four and two-thirds innings. POWHATAN HIGH and other D-.strict 2 schools soon can quit worrying about the winning habits of Douglas Freeman High, which move; up to Group I ranking next year The Henrico County school upeicit ii d irs in 1954 with 300 students, while next year it ex pert . 500 more! The Rebel will commence Group 1 play with the 1953 football season, while scheduling Group I foes by degrees now and then. MAYNARD HICK tin big end on Fluvanna High School teams of two sea •ns ago when his pass-catching sank Farmville High, has i mulled at Virginia .The Scottsville 205-pounder prepped last year at Greenbriar Military School which had an undefeated football team. Gutting ili • six-three strapper proves that Ben Martin, the Cavalier grid skipper, lias no idea of letting VPI get all the cream.
