Carlisle, Faculty Advisor, Miss Ethel Kerr; Mr. Dan Williams; Mr. Ellis Frady; Mr. Rembert McNeer. Jr. Athletics and Char acter Building The father of a young man who re- recently enrolled in a school wrote the president of the institution somewhat as follows: “I hope that my boy becomes a great scholar. I would be very happy if he made a fine record in athletics, foren- sics or in other student life activities. Above all, however, I hope he will be a great man. If he is the right kind of man he will be intellectually honest. He will not blame others for his mis takes. He will not waist his time in envying those who do certain things better than he can do them. He will be fair in his dealings with his fellow men .He will not cheat to gain a tempo rary advantage over his fellows. He will be loyal to his school, his country and himself. If his school training helps him to become this kind of a man I will , be satisfied if hs is a great scholar or a great athlete.” Anyone who ponders the thought that was in the mind of this father will realize what a wonderful opportunity the athletic coach has in helping to de velop the right kind of men. A bOy who has had the proper athletic train ing does not blame others for his mis takes. He is not envious of his supe riors to the point of wanting to handi cap them in some way so that he him self, even though he be not deserving, shall attain the prize. He has learned to compete fairly, respect the rules of the game, enjoy life, be patriotic and lastly meet adversity stanbing up' The father of this boy in question stated a physical education and ath letic program objective unknowingly. While we commonly look upon ath letics as predominantly physica l,we are coming to realize as never before that their great and most ksting values are spiritual. Greater perfection in the playing of the game is always to be sought after, but all of this is the stalk which noursht's the real flower of the real process—fine sporstman ship. Where this is not true, athletic act ivities bo not justify themselves. They cannot be neutral in the building of manhood; they must inevitable contri bute either good or evil in the making of character. Naturally it goes without saying that tvery boy cannot represent his schoo I in football, baseball, or some other sport. But all boys can, and should, have the experience of playing group ^ games under wise leadership. There is little the sheer act of playing a game of football that is inherently valuable. It is the sense of com radeship—the learning to work to gether—the give-and-take of win ning and losing that impress their lessons most valuably. They are a symbol of life as a whole. The Duke of Wellington expressed that the fundamentals of a man's life date 3ack to the games he played, when le said, “Waterloo was won on the playing fields of Eton.'’ The goal of education is to fit the pupil for life. Athletics justify themselves by contributing towards this goal. —Hugh Brenaman in The Earnest Worker, Septejnber, 19S5 Reno Wins Prizes at Livestock Show John Reno, College Freshman, was winner of cash prizes amount ing to $61 at The Western North Carolina Fat Cattle Show in Ashe ville Wednesday.

Huggins and Orr Went Over for Tc uchdowns Led by the brilliant running of Davis and Orr and the long-distance punting of Clayton, the Brevard lads opened the second half by passing and run ning their way way for a touchdown in the first five minutes of play. Their second score came in the middle of the fourth quarter after a Wofford fumble, deep in its own territory, had been re covered by Brevard. The Terrier Pups threw a scare into the Brevard ranks early in the first period when Moore returned a punt from his own 10-yard line for 25 yards, and Dannei: advanced the ball to the 38-yard marker by a series of long end runs and spinner plays. It looked as if the Pups were on their way for a touchdown, but tlie Tornados buckled up and blocked a Wofford kick to pull themselves out of danger. The second quarter, which was marked by a kick ing duel between Calvert of Wofford and Clayton of Brevard, was almost entirely played on the Pups’ part of the field. The Tornados came back in the sec ond half with a bang to place the ball again in Wofford territory. A long pass from Clayton to Frady netted 25 yards and put Brevard on the fresh man 20-yard line. Davis gained 11 yards off his own right tackle for a first down, and Orr scored on a lateral from Higgins around their left end. Clayton’s oass to Frady for the extra point was knocked down by Calvert- After an exchange of punts in the fourth quarter, Wofford advanced to Brevard’s 40-yard line, but a long punt from Clayton to Hix was fumbled and recovered by Gaston on the Pups’ 21- yard line. Wofford was penalized for excessive timeouts, and Davis went around his riglit end for 19 more yards- Huggins scored the second touchdown by going over right tackle for 6 yards. A short pass from Clayton to Gaston gave the extra point. Football Schedule Attend All the Home Games Date Ti’atn Place B. C.

When the con test ended the ball was on the Wofford 30-yard stripe. Behind the lenghty and well placed kicks of Clayton, the eleven played cool, heads-up ball, and waited for their breaks, which were quickly con verted into their only two touchdowns. Lail, Gaston, and Frady were stalwarts on defence, while Davis, Orr, and Hug gins made several sensational runs. Both teams displayed signs of being well coached, as there were only two penalties puring the entire game. THE LINE- -UP Brevard Pos. Wofford Frosh.
