Brevard Sends Delegates To UN; Represent Iraq
Tornadoes Move
Into Semi-Finals
First-seeded Brevard College,
the regular season champion, de
feated Lees-McRae, 58-50, in the
opening game of the Western
Carolina Junior College Confer
ence basketball tournament on
February 20, 1963.
Brevard overcame Lees-Mc-
Rae’s control tactics in the sec
ond half on the strength of Ray
Hoxit’s rebounding and the scor
ing of Joe Forte, who hit 20
points, G«ne Allen, who scored
16, and Doug Rogers, who made
13.
Hoxit, playing with a deep
gash in his right index finger
as the result of an accident three
days ago, swept both backboards
of rebounds and was primarily
responsible for keeping Brevard
in a narrow lead through the
second half.

brary? Several students who, in-
cidently, spend almost as much
time in the library as the librar
ians themselves, have wondered
why Mrs. Holder was so involv
ed in a huge stack of books and
papers recently.
Mrs. Holder has not joined
the F. B. I., but is serving on an
important committee. This com
mittee is compiling a list of 20,-
000 books which should be bas
ic for all junior college libraries.
Junior college librarians from
all across the nation,, reflect

and curricula, are participating

cility under construction
which will be the second opera
tional Goddard facility of its
kind. The Rosman facility will
be, primarily, an 85 foot data
acquisition antenna site which is
part of an ambitious long-range
program to provide a network of
big dish telementry sites for fu
ture scientific, weather, and
co'mmunication satellite pro
grams.
The Rosman site lies in a val
ley or “bowl” which provides
excellent natural R F shielding
on all sides. It was found to be
one of the few locations east of
the Mississippi River that met
all requirements for interfer
ence isolation and freedom from
commercial airline communica
tion interference.
The scientific satellite data
acquisition facility is scheduled
for completion next June.
