undefeated football team ran

nation that has established.
itse]f as the team to beat in
the SAC'8 this season. What
else could anyone ask for our
Homecoming weekend?
The Bulldogs defeated
conference foe Newberry 36-29,
took a week off, then came
back and pounded Wingate Sat
urday, 33-3. These victories,
coupled with Catawba’s 2-0 win
over defending national champ
ion Carson-Newman, vaulted
Gardner-Webb to the top of the
SAC-8 standings as they enter
this weekend’s contest against
Lenoir Rhyne.
The most impressive
Bulldog in the past two gcimes
has been place-kicker Jeff
Parker. If this Seneca, South
Carolina, native continues his
present pace, he will vir
tually own the Gardner-Webb
record books. Against Newberry
Parker booted a career best 49
yard field goal and a school
record five field goals for
the game. Following the vie
tory, he was the number two
scoring kicker in the NAIA
Also against Wingate, Parker
kicked field goals of 20 and
27 yards to give him 21 three
pointers in his 15 game career
breaking the school record.
After a week off, the
Bulldogs traveled to Monroe,
North Carolina, to take on the
"other" Bulldogs of Wingate.
Darrell Middleton rushed for
114 yards on nine carries, in
cluding a 74 yard touchdown to
lead Gardner-Webb to a 33-3
victory. Wingate averted the
shut-out when Michael May
kicked a 36 yard field goal
with four seconds left in the
game. The win upped Gardner
Webb’s record to 4~0, while
Wingate dropped to 2-2.

Doug Lewis / Friend
By Slounder
Gardner-Webb has a new Dean
of Men. His name is Doug Lewis
and he comes to us from
Carson-Newman where he was a
Resident Director (C-N has a
unique system for RDs- they
are all adults with college
degrees). He is also a gradu
ate of Carson-Newman. Upon
graduation, Lewis took a job
with Lee Industries. This was
a time when Lewis said he was
"fighting the will of God in
his life." Lewis felt God wan
ted him for the ministry, but
he did not wish to go into it.
After accepting God’s will in
life, he entered Southwestern
Seminary. Of seminary Lewis
says, "I loved it. I wish I
could have stayed there."
Bacli Stage
Pass

The stage is set for laugh
ter as the Gardner-Webb chap
ter of Alpha Psi Omega, the
national theatre fraternity,
prepares to open its 1987-88
season. After weeks of deli
beration, Director John Brock
has decided to make his
Gardner-Webb debut with Neil
Simon’s romantic comedy,
"Barefoot in the Park". The
play, which made its first ap
pearance on the New York stage
in 1963, takes place in the
present and is set entirely in
a sixth-story walk-up apart
ment on East 48th Street in
New York City. The story re
volves around a newlywed cou
ple and their hilarious misad
ventures involving the bride’s
mother, as well as their new
ly-acquired unconventional
neighbors.
There will be a pre-audi
tion workshop on Monday, Oct.
12, from 7:00 to 9:00 p.m.

After seminary, Lewis worked
as De^m of Student Services at
Dallas Baptist College. His
duties included: scheduling
entertainment, planning trips,
and organizing the Miss Dallas
Baptist College pageant.
When asked of some of his
goals for GWC, Lewis listed
dorm improvements, increased
dorm competition, and better
faculty-student relations. His
main goal is to become the
guys’ friend. He stressed that
"his door was always open." He
does not always want to talk
shop either, commenting that
"he just likes to talk."
Of course, Lewis does have
a firm stand on discipline.
However, he does not want to
come off as ruling with the
proverbial "iron hand." He is
here to help the students. We
welcome Doug Lewis aboard the
staff of Gardner-Webb and wish
him the best of luck.

In other theatre news, the
Alpha Psi Omega group is cur
rently sponsoring an acting
workshop, which is being con
ducted by Marilyn Carter from
Mathews, North Carolina. The
workshop consists of four ses
sions, three and a half hours
in length, where participants
work on such acting techniques
as diction, concentration, and
inner reflection. Ms. Carter
is a distinguished actress and
director who has worked with
the theatre departments at
Jersey City State College and
Yale Psychiatric Institute,
among others, and her numerous
credits include Of f-Brojidway
and North Carolina Stage
Company productions.
With the increasing inter
est in the dramatic arts here
at GWC, more theatre activi
ties will be scheduled for the
future, and that means there
will be more room for parti
cipation by students and fa
culty, both onstage and behind
the scenes. Anyone who would
like to be a part is encour
aged to see either John Brock
at the theatre or Mandy
Thomas, President of Alpha Psi
Omega.
