PHILLIP MORRIS JONES
. . . gets scholarship
Ex-Dunbar High Athlete
Gets Lincoln Scholarship
Former Dunbar High School
star tennis and basketball player
Phillip Morris Jones was recently
awarded a four-year
scholarship to Lincoln University
in Jefferson City, Missouri.
Officials of the school said
that they had heard about Jones
ability in basketball and tennis,
and had been watching him for
a possible scholarship.
Jones was also president of
the class of 1960 at Dunbar High
School, where he did all of his
high school work, but his sports
ability was chiefly responsible
for the scholarship.
Presently, the Dunbar graduate
is making ready to leave for
college September 10. He will
major in physical education and
minor in biology at the Missouri
university.
He just returned from a vacation
trip to California, where he
and his grandmother visitied
friends and relatives. They also
talked with Patricia King, who
toured Europe this summer.
Several local business and
some of Jones' friends have presented
him with going-away
gifts, including Mrs. Essie Hill,
Mrs. Gary Eaves, and Mr.
Jones of the Lufkin Laundry.
Others wishing to give him
gifts are asked to call NE 4-4871
or deliver them to 118 Booker
Street.
