After going into the half scoreless, the Bishops gave up three second half goals. “UNC-Wilmington is a very good team,” said second-year head coach Bob Bigney. “We played weU the first 60 minutes of the game and then, when they scored, we pushed up in hopes of equal izing. Unfortunately for us they put two more in close to the end.” The Bishops traveled to Greenvilleearlierthatweekto take on the Pirates of East Carolina, collecting their seventh win of the year by beating the Pirates 3-1. “The East Carolina match was good for us,” said Bigney. “We came out and scored three first half goals to put the game out of reach early.” Senior Jon Miller had a big day, scoring one goal and assisting the other two Bishop goals. Freshmen Don Clements and Pat Crouch rounded out the Wesleyan scoring.

Hie Bishops gave up two goals to Methodist in the first half and then gave up two more in the second half to fall to the Monarchs overall and 2-1-2 in the Dixie Conference. “I wished we had played as well in the beginning of the season as we played at the end. I feel that we didn’t play as well as a team and we played too much as indi viduals, and it showed in our record,” said right fullback Craig Benson. “I also saw a lot of im provement and this should carry over to next season.” “Our record doesn’t show it, but we had some positive points come out of this season,” said Bigney. “With the injuries we had, the competitive schedule we played, and with 13 fi'eshmen on the squad (including five starters), the future looks very promising.” Three-player tournament set for basketball By JAMES OAKLEY A three-player team basketball tournament has been scheduled as the new intramural activity on campus, and six teams will com pete for the championship. The tournament will be double elimination with the winners re ceiving tee-shirts and apaid trip to the annual Regional Tournament in January, although the site has not yet been decided. The winners last year attended the tournament at Furman University where they were 1 -2 and received various tee- shirts. “I hope my team wins the tournament here at Wesleyan be cause I had a very exciting time and Furman and I plan to attend againstthis year,” said Trey Davis. Trey was the only remaining member off that championship ' team that consisted of two seniors and two sophomores. There is no scheduled time that these games are to be played, but they are to be played as quickly as possible and at the convenience of all the players on all the teams. lot of effort against Methodist,” said head coach Patrick Baker. “We started nine fi'eshmen against the number one team in the nation and, for the most part, we held our own. I’m by no means pleased with the result, but to see these young ladies start to play at a higher level is encouraging.” The Bishops then hosted Marymount College for the last game of the season. Wesleyan dominated the first 30 minutes of the match but couldn’t find the back of the net. Freshman forward Nikki Fine broke the scoreless deadlock in the second half as she headed a cross into the upper left comer of the goal. Marymount tied the score at 1- Over the past few weeks in tramural football at Wesleyan has been dominated by the Delta Sigs of Delta Sigma Phi fraternity, which maintained an undefeated record throughout the regular season and the tournament. The Delta Sig ’ s combined their quickness and speed to overcome aU their opponents. “We used our speed to our ad vantage over the other teams and in flag football size doesn’t really matter. The defense did a great job controlling our opponent’s of fense, and our offense could score whenever we needed points,” one Delta Sig said. The regular season games and scores were; Delta Sigma Phi de feated Pi Kapps, 38-18.”The Boys” defeated Sigma Pi, 33-32 in a hard-fought overtime game. The Pi Kapps then defeated ‘The Boys” 38-26. The Delta Sig’s later defeated ‘The Boys” by a crush ing 50-22 score, and in a big fi'a- temity rivalry, the Pi Kapps de feated Sigma Phi by, 26-6. By JOHN FENTRESS N.C. Wesleyan’s Student NCAE (N.C.

Senior midfielder Chrisi Nemetz then took matters into her own hands as she beat four Marymountplayers on the dribble and then played the ball off to freshman sweeper Laura Gilbert who neatly tucked the ball by the keeper. “It was very nice to end the season on a winning note,” said Baker. “Our two seniors deserved to go out on a winning note, and the team provided that win for them. We played really well and unfortunately their only shot on goal hit the back of the net. We responded well after they tied the game up and scored a great goal to win the game.” By PAT EDMONDS Everyone would probably agree that attending Wesleyan is not by any means inexpensive. Given the amount of money that students spend for tuition and ac tivities fees, why do students have to pay to attend events put on by the Performing and Visual Arts Department? That question in reality is not as simple as it may seem. Ac cording to Dean Marshall Brooks, every department has faced cuts in their respective budgets. Dean Brooks feels the Performing and ing books is to reward children with books instead of candy and other sweets following examina tions and classwork. A box has been placed in the Conference Room of the Educa tion Department. Books may be dropped off at any time of the day. If there are any questions, contact Mrs. Janice Fleming at 977-7171, ext. 273. The Bishops, who started out ranked number 13 in the nation, finished 6-12-1 overall and 2-1 in the Dixie Conference. “After starting out the season 1-8, we finished the second half of the season 5-4-1 and really started to come together,” Baker said. He will hit the recruiting road hard and looks for three to four fresh men to come in and start next fall. “We are currenfly in contact with about 20-30 young ladies across the United States,” Baker said. “I have seen some play, but need to see each one play fairly soon. Everyone has been so polite and excited aboutthe program that I really feel next season will be a successful one.*” Visual Arts Department “does superwell with the money they have.” He admits, ‘They need more money. We all do.” But Dean Brooks also says that Performing Arts has fared better than most departments with the music department even receiving a slight budget increase. So the question still remains: why do we have to pay? Even though the music de partment has received an increase, it isn’t enough to cover the cost of inflation. So even with the added funds, the departmentstill doesn’t come out ahead. The admission fee is stiU needed so the department can at least recover some of the funds used in production. This has been the case with the theatre for years and is only now becoming evident in the music department. Is it right for a college that stresses the liberal arts to charge admission to artistic perfor mances? According to Dean Brooks, the college is “striving towards” the elimination of this problem. How long the problem will exist and how long students will be charged admission remain ' amysteiy. 4-0. “The ladies really put forth a Bishops end season with 7-8-3 record Delta Sigs win football title By TREY DAVIS The tournament then began with the number one Delta Sig’s playing the number four team. Sigma Pi, on Oct. 30. Delta Sigma Phi rolled past Sigma Pi, 64-0. On Oct. 31, the number two Phi Kapps then defeated number three “The Boys” by 63-31. In the championship game, it wasn’t long before the game was , decided as the Delta Sig’s scored at will and rolled up a score of 54- 6. The Delta Sig’s will receive tee-shirts as soon as they arrive. Future of concert fees remains under study NCAE collecting books
