FEBRUARY 7, 1958 THE CLARION PAGE THREE SPORTS TALK with Tappy Brevard Routes Hiawassee 73-59 The red hot Brevard Tornadoes romped on to their fifth victory in their last six games by downing Hiawassee 73-59. The Tennessee team trailed throughout the en tire game and were unable to cope with the reibounding aibility of U. B. Deyton and Wayne Cordell. Not even their sharp shooting accur acy from' outside the foul circle could keep them in the game. Kent Laughter played his best game since the opening of the sea son, hitting for 17 points. Forward Lloyd Hensley also hit for 17. The team’s newest addition, Jim Huff man, of Marion, N. C., liit the scor ing column for the first time with 4 points. His superior faking and foot work were a pleasure to see Other scoring were as follows: Cor dell, 11; Forbes, 6; Dayton, 6; Liv ingston, 5; Van Horn, 4; and Wil son, 3. Brevard met defeat, their second in their last seven games. The Tor nadoes, who went into the game with 8 wins, 7 losses, were unaible to dump in the 4 points necessary to pull the game out five, and the game ended with Brevard behind by the slim margin of 4 points. Brevard, who defeated Mars Hill in their first outing, held the lead several times early in the second half, but failed to keep pace as the game came down to the finish. Lloyd Hensley, averaiging better than 20 points, upped his average by dunking in 25 points. John Van Horn sank 11; Don Livingston net ted 9. and U. B. Deyton hit for 8 markers. Methodist Mission Tornadoes Upset Young Harris 82-75 The Brevard Tornadoes pulled off one of the league’s biggest up sets here as they ripped through the Young Harris’ defense and topped the highly rated Georgia squad 82-75. In knocking off Young Harris, Brevard was defeating last year’s Georgia State Champions. Brevard showed one of the finest team efforts we have seen, with each of the starting players scor ing in double figures. The two teams played a see-saw battle throughout the first half leaving the score knotted at 39-39 as the half ended. Brevard’s attack was led by Lloyd Hensley, who racked up 27 points. U. B. Deyton and Wayne Cordell hit for 16 and 14 respec tively, while guards Don Living- son and Kent Laughter each hit for 10 markers. Wayne (Potsy) Cordell was per sonally responsible for 8 of the teams first 13 points, and he had 12 points at the end of the first quarter. Mars Hill E“ges Brevard 69-65 The snow failed, but the Mars Hill basketball five successfully turned back the Brevard College Tornadoes Saturday night at Mars Hill.

As Mr. Maury explained at a luncheon sponsored by the De partment of Student Work of the Board of Missions: “It is the intent of this program to effect a real change in the present student gen eration in order to lead more stu dents to volunteer as full-time workers in the church’s world wide missions.” The key event, which will draw 350 students from the Federation’s members units and 100 other students, will be a major world teaching conference in Brit ain in 1960. Following the interna tional conference a series of reg ional teaching-study conferences will be held. The purpose of the program is fourfold, Mr. Maury said, to: 1. Re-think the responsibility of the church in the present world sitintion on the basis of the Bibli cal revelation and the lessons of church history. 2. Recover and communicate to this student generation a new and more adequate understanding of the basic motivation for the mis sion of the church and commitment to it. 3. Train students and young loaders in the mission of the church today. 4. Help them to find their place of service within the total life and mission of the church. Rambling Wth Audrey By Audrey Honeycutt “Who’s he? Must Ibe a new stu dent. Kinda cute, isn’t he?” These are lamiliar remarks being made about the new faces appearing on campus since the beginning of the second semester. It seems as if the boys are out of luck again since no r.ew girls were added. Better luck next time, fe'llows. I might add that we’re glad to have all these new students, and we hope you’ll ‘be happy here at Brevard. It’s a friendly campus, and in no time at all you’ll feel right at home and be in the full swing of events. We’re glad to see certain familiar faces reinstated too. For many of us the beginning of this last semester is the beginning of the last lap here at “ole” Bre vard Tech. In too short a time we’ll have only memories to look back upon, because we’ll be elsewhere in new places doing new things. Many of the sophomores have been seen racking their brains and scanning college catalogs trying to decide where they will continue their educations. A few lucky ones have made the great decision and have already applied and have been accepted at other schools. What ever the choices may be, whether it be school, work, or marriage, it is important that we made the most of that last laip so that when ve look back into the memories of Bre vard College they will be pleasant ones. When our two years here are completed, we want to be able to say we did our best and benefited by coming here. Speaking of marriage, Thad Gar rett told me that he took the bliss ful step this weekend and now has a lovely, blushing bride. Thad and Barbara Courtney were married on Sunday, February 2nd, at the First Baptist Church of Sanford, North Carolina. To you, Thad and Barbara, from all of us come our heartiest congratulations for a life of happiness. The Brevard Methodist Church was the scene of another lovely wedding on February 3rd when Don Widenhouse and Patricia Jenkins of Midland became Mr. and Mrs. Our best wishes always to you also, Don and Pat. It’s nice to see Bertie Lou Hut chins back at school after a week’s absence due to an appendix oper ation. A certain sophomore boy looks extremely happy again. Our basketball team really seems to be getting on the ball here to wards the end of the season. We’re proud of you boys. An evidence of that was shown in the disappoint^ faces when the convoy to Mars HUl was cancelled Saturday night. Nearly everyone in school had planned to go support you boys. Keep up the good work for we’re behind you all the way. There’s just a little over a week left until the big Valentine Dance. You boys had better get busy and isk the girls for dates ’cause we don’t want a stag line at the dance. And don’t forget — no flowers this time. Bet that sounds like a winner, doesn’t it? Let’s all ramble down to the stu dent lounge and socialize awhile. It’s good for the morale. Hiista la vista!
