Greensboro Purple Whirlwind tops Bison in local race
Greensboro's Purple Whirlwind defeats the Black Bison in a Western class AA basketball tilt.

Dick Hartley and brother Bill Hartley attended, with Jim Hayworth praised for his season. The win leaves Gastonia and R. J. Reynolds atop the conference slate with three games remaining for Greensboro. Plans continue for a war memorial building and a new 15 000 seat high school stadium ahead of a potential High Point Greensboro classic. The North State conference tournament begins Monday with four games and season-ticket availability at Enterprise.
