From: The Winston-Salem Journal, Saturday morning, April 24, 1965 Swearingen Leads Reynolds To All-Forsyth Track Title By Steve Clark, Staff Reporter Reynolds High's undefeated track team utilized its depth to full advantage and won the eighth annual All-Forsyth Invitational Track Meet yesterday afternoon at Hanes Park. The hard - charging Demons won six first places and tied for another while compiling 68 points. North Forsyth finished second with 39, East Forsyth third with 31, West Forsyth fourth with 11 and Gray, which entered only three events, was last with five. Steve Swearingen, a fleet Reynolds junior, set the pace for the victors by racing first to the tape in both the 100 and 220-yard dashes. His time in the 100 was 10.5 seconds, and his 220 time was 23.5. Two Double Winners Swearingen and teammate Stuart Peters were the only individuals to capture two blue ribbons, although Peters hadto share one of his. Peters won first place in the 180-yard low hurdles by overtaking North Forsyth's ace hurdler, Harvey Bauguess, in the last few yards and nipping him at the tape. Peters winning time was 20.8 seconds. Peters shared a blue ribbon in the high jump with East Forsyth's Raymond Warden. Both leaped 5 feet, 8 inches. However, it is doubtful if Peters and Warden would have shared this event had West Forsyth's Hugh Hampton competed. Hampton, who has jumped 5-11 this spring, missed the meet on account of illness. Although he lost to Peters in the low hurdles, Bauguess successfully defended the 120-yard high hurdles by outracing Peters to the wire in 15.5 seconds. Bauguess' high hurdles victory was one of four first places for North Forsyth. Orval Jones took the pole vault with an 11-foot, six-inch effort, and Bill Raisner dashed to victory in the 440 in 53.1 seconds. The Vikings' superb mile relay team of Steve Barrow, Bill Westmoreland, Steve Leon, and anchorman Raisner, captured the day's final event in 3:36.7. Besides Swearingen and Peters, Randy Phillips and Roland Barnhardt won first places for Reynolds. Phillips won the mile in 4:42.2 and Barnhardt took the broad jump with a 20-foot, 1-inch leap. The other Demon blue ribbon was won by the 880-yard relay team of David Lanier, Barnhardt, Pete Lyons and Swearingen in 1:36.5. East, West and Gray each won one first place. Bob Randall of East Forsyth won the discus with a toss of 134 feet, 8 inches; West's Barry Quinn took the 880 in 2:03.4, and hefty Rodney Anderson of Gray got the Hounds on the scoreboard with a winning shotput throw of 44 feet, 5 inches. Despite perfect weather conditions -- 80-plus degrees and blue skies -- no records were broken. Reynolds' 880 relay team came the closest with its time of 1:36.5, falling short of the 1:36.0 mark set by Reynolds in 1962.

From: The Twin City Sentinel, Saturday afternoon, April 24, 1965 Reynolds Triumphs Because of Depth By Steve Clark, Staff Reporter To understand why Reynolds High School scored a smashing triumph in yesterday's All-Forsyth Invitational track meet doesn't require a lot of deep thinking -- but depth is why the Demons wound up on top. I short, Reynolds just had too many horses. As a result, the final tabulations read: Reynolds 68, North Forsyth 39, East Forsyth 31, West Forsyth 11, Gray 5. The margin of victory would indicate that the Demons won practically all of the 14 events. But the fact is, blue ribbons were pretty well spread around. Reynolds won only six first places, while runner-up North Forsyth garnered four. East Forsyth, West Forsyth and Gray each won a first place. The other first place was a tie between Reynolds and East in the high jump. But here's the Demons' secret of success: five second places and six third places. That's 27 points -- three points shy of being equal to six first places. "We win a lot of meets by finishing second, third and fourth in many events," said Coach Bill Webster, whose Demons are undefeated by virtue of their numerous non-blue ribbons. Reynolds scored in every event yesterday. In comparison, North failed to score in five events, East was blanked in four, and West failed to show in nine. Gray entered three events, scoring five points on Rodney Anderson's winning toss of 44 feet, 5 inches in the shotput. Reynolds' weakest events were the 440-yard dash and the shotput, in which Demon entries could do no better than fourth. Steve Swearingen and Stuart Peters were Reynolds' most outstanding performers. Swearingen captured both dash events -- the 100 and the 220 -- and served as anchorman on the Demons' winning 880-yard relay team. The swift junior nosed North's Bill Raisner in the 100 with a time of 10.5 seconds, and his 23.5 time in the 220 edged Doug Linville of East. Peters waged a personal duel with Harvey Bauguess of North in the high and low hurdles. Bauguess took the highs in 15.5, but Peters got revenge in the lows with a 20.8 showing. The event tuned up Reynolds for the Central 4-A Conference meet Friday at Hanes Park. Time trials will begin at 10:30 a.m., eliminations at 2:30 p.m, and the finals at 3:30.

From: The Twin City Sentinel, Thursday evening, April 22, 1965 Four Teams Are Expected to Wage Hot Battle for Track Meet Title The Winston-Salem - Forsyth County Invitational high school track meet will be held at Hanes Park Friday afternoon, and it looms as one of the closest battles in years. Only four teams have entered -- East Forsyth, North Forsyth, Reynolds and West Forsyth -- but the teams are evenly matched. In the sprints, East and Reynolds will lead the field, with Doug Linville of East and Steve Swearingen of Reynolds having the best times in both the 100 and 220. In the 100, the boys have done :10.5. The 440 should be a three-way battle between Johnny Stewart of West Forsyth (:53.6), Bill Raisner of North Forsyth (54.4) and Jack Smith of East Forsyth (:54.5). In the 800, it's Barry Quinn of West Forsyth (2:06.9) against Frank Crosby of East (2:08). Reynolds has the edge in the mile with Randy Phillips (4:43) and Phillip Beavers (4:52) against David Beeson of East (4:55). East tops the 880 relay with a time of 1:37.6, and North is the favorite in the mile relay with a 3:40.2. Stuart Peters of Reynolds and Johnny Stewart of West Forsyth are co-favorites in the high hurdles with times of :15.4, but defending champion Harvey Bauguess of North Forsyth can't be ignored with a time of :15.8. Peters and Bauguess will battle it out in the low hurdles. Peters has the edge with a :20.6, and Bauguess has done :20.8. Reynolds is strong in the field events. Richard Bell of North tops the shot field with a throw of 42 feet. Lewis Whiteheart and Joe Crotts of North will challenge him with 41 feet. Roland Barnhardt of Reynolds is the favorite in the broad jump with 20 feet, 8 inches. Stewart of West is the top challenger with 20 feet, 5 inches. Johnny Johnson of Reynolds leads the discus with a toss of 134 feet, 8 inches. Bob Randall of East is a top contender with 131 feet, 6 inches. Hugh Hampton of West Forsyth is the favorite in the high jump with 5 feet, 10 inches. Stuart Peters of Reynolds and Ray Warden of East have done 5 feet, 8 inches. Two boys from North rate high in the pole vault. Orval Jones is the top man with 11 feet. Watson DuFour has done 10 feet, 6 inches. Tom Barbee of Reynolds also has done 10 feet, 6 inches.
