Golfers Falter on 2nd Day:
Drop to Third in DIAC
After being in strong con
tention after the first day’s
play, the Wesleyan Bishops golf
game fell apart and the Bish
ops dropped to a third place
finish in the Dixie Intercol
legiate Athletic Conference golf
tournament held last weekend
at Charleston, S. C.
In a constant down-pour on
Thursday, the Bishops rolled
to second place, just one stroke
in back of defending champion
St. Andrews Presbyterian Col
lege, and in good position to
grab their first conference title
ever.
On the rain - soaked Char
leston Country Club course, on
a day when everyone’s score
soared, two Bishops were in
dividual leaders after the first
round. Bennie Goodrich head
ed the field with a four-over-
par 75 while Lee Ball was a
stroke behind at 76, two strokes
ahead of two Charleston golf
ers who were next with 78’s.
However, the roof fell in
on the locals on Friday. Good
rich fell to 82 and a 157 total
for the tournament and Ball
scored 78, a far poorer show
ing than his usual game dur
ing the regular season.
While the Bishops were hav
ing their troubles, St. Andrews
was romping to a successful
defense of its title, amassing
a two-day team score of 791.
Wesleyan, after trailing by on
ly one stroke after the first
round, slumped to third with

The field was tightly packed
after Thursday’s round. St.

followed by Wesleyan’s 402.
The leaders were followed by
Lynchburg College at 412, Col

176; and Buck Roney 88-82-
170.
The Bishop netters, coming
off a rather disappointing reg
ular season which resulted in
only two victories, won four
singles matches and one dou
bles match to compile a total
of 10 points and give them a
fourth place finish in the Dixie
Conference Tennis Champion
ship held in Charleston, S. C.,
last week end.
St. Andrews won the confer
ence championship, storming
from behind on the final day.
The Knights accumulated 42
points to gain their second title
in as many years.
St. Andrews was trailing Col
lege of Charleston by four points
moving into Saturday’s finals,
however Charleston was only
able to grab two victories in
the final round and were forced
to watch the potent Knights
storm past them for the cov
eted crown.
The Bishops, fielding a ten
nis squad for only the third
year, captured their highest
finish ever by clinching fourth
place in the event.

Evaluations
Buffalo, N.Y. — (LP.)--“The
best teachers are not always
the most popular,” according
to Dean William D, Hawkland
of the State University at Buf
falo Law SchooL “Evaluations
have monetary implications,’'
he said, discussing the advan
tages and disadvantages of
course evaluations,” and there
was a case when a teacher
lost tenure because of low rank
ing.”
“The students are for it,”
he said, “and last year a group
of students did evaluate a
course, but they wanted to pub-
cize their results. They were
refused publication, however,
and we gave the faculty the
results, with the hope of im
proving teaching.”
“The results improved
teaching,” Dean Hawkland con
tinued, “and we want to do
it again. The rating system
is on a five point basis with
five considered outstanding.
Categories include presen
tation, preparation of material,
control of class, that is, rele
vance of discussion, the tho
roughness of coverage, re
sponse to questions, tolerance
to different points of view, and
the interest of the lecture.
Referring to the influence
of the teacher’s popularity ver
sus his ability in ranking. Dean
Hawkland said, I don’t think
it was a popularity contest.
He pointed out that “studies
were made and showed that
some of the hardest graders
were ranked high while some
of the ‘good guys’ were ranked
low.”
