OCTOBER 25, 1968
A Tattered Note
You’ve seen them, love,
and laughed:
A dusty burning in a heart
too young;
Yet you felt it through
stunted prose.
For, at least, his judge
ment flatters.
Now you dare, with di
vine temerity.
To sneer his love
The damnation of faint
praise.
You snear! You sneer.
But his love, though
seeming dusty.
Tarnished, grasping, is
so
Consistently young, so
honest,
That it can grow.

to raise $55,000 for the
continuing support fund.
Solicitations of gifts
from the members and
other business men and
individuals are conducted
by the thirty-two member
Board of Directorso
These board members
are elected to serve
four -year terms. They
send out statements to al
most one-half of the
members who have pled
ged certain amounts each
year. They also contact
other members for ther
contributions and look
for new in all possible
areas. The Foundation
has been successful in
reaching its goal every
year, and hopes are high
that they will repeat this
success this year.
The Rocky Mount Area
Wesleyan Foundation has
also undertaken the
Capital Fund of $1,750,000
of which all but $116,000
has been raised. The
Capital Fund was ori
ginated with the idea of
the college and was part
of a threefold promise.
The other two parts were
a site for the college
itself and utilities avail
able on this site.
It is hoped by all in
volved that the Foundation
reach its goal of $55,000
this year. The support
of the Rocky Mount area
will help put Wesleyan
back in the black after
its fiscal loss last year.

Give him the chance.
Dust off the magic lamp,

Let him prosper in your

And teach you honesty.

And have seen what your

You’ll love him, as it

Too late: for honest,

a hard 2-2 tie with East
Carolina University.
It looked as if the Bi
shops were about to put
the game away during the
second and third quarters
when two penalty kicks
were called against us,
resulting in the two goals
for East Carolina.
Wesleyan really looked
good in the clutch, and,
as the ECU coach said,
we “out-hustled and out
fought them.” In fact, the
Bishops refused to admit
the closeness of the game
by simply remaining cool
and keeping continuous
pressure on ECU. These
men, under fire, have set
a standard for the drive
and determination they
displayed during the
game. The only bad aspect
of the game was the fact
that we actually won on
class and “guts,” while
the score was 2-2.
Another group to priase
for their conduct is our
cheerleaders, who have
been very devoted to our
soccer team. The next
time you see one of our
cheerleaders, tell them
what a fine job they have
done and are doing.
Our nominee for player
of the week is C. B.
Daughtridge, who scored
our two points at David
son and Guilford and
scored once for us a-
gainst ECU. His coolness
and steady play are two
of the Bishops’ strongest
points.
