had only a few practice sessions under the direction of Prof. Dev ey M. Stowers, who took over the
band program this fall. The picture above was caught as the band faced the Elon stands during the
half-time intermission. Leading the group, with back to the camera, is Drum Major Carl Burke. The
majorettes, left to right, are Lucille Edwards, Nancy Williamson (mostly hidden by the drum major),
Ann Dula. Becky Murdock and .June Driver. Mary Ann Harris, the sixth majorette, was not on the
field at the time of the picture, since she was assigned a special rol(t in one the half-time
maneuvers.

The question asked at the last
meeting by William Stanfield as
to what would happen if a motion

null and void.

The second quarter was a dif
ferent story, with East Carolina
:triving to the Elon 26-yard line
in its early moments and then
staging a sustained drive that car
ried 70 yards for a touchdown late
in the period. This drive started
after Joe DelGais kicked out of
bounds on the East Carolina thirty,
with Emo Broado pacing the Pir
ate attack for four first-and-ten:
to the Elon twenty-one. Milton
Collier passed from there to Bob
I'erry. who went over for the
score. Collier kicked good for a
7-0 half-time lead.
The third quarter saw the rivals
battle on even terms, with each
team chalking three first downs
and with each penetrating deep
into enemy territory one time. The
Klon threat ended at the Pirate
thirty-five, while the ?>ast Caro
lina drive collapsed with a lost
fumble at the Christian fifteen.
The second and final Pirate TD
came after five minutes of the
fourth quarter. Bob Perry started
the East Carolina outfit on its way
when he intercepted an Elon pass
at the Pirate 42-yard marker and
returned five yards. Perry then
alternated with Emo Boado in car
rying for three first downs, the
last one on the Elon two. Perr.V
hammered across for h^s second
TD of the night, but Coljier's kick
failed and left the final count 13
to 0.
«
At this juncture in the game
the Elon reserves took the field
and seemed to inject new life into
tne Christian attack, with Bobby
Joe .Moser directing the young
sters for three first downs before
a fumble and a kicked ball set
them back. East Carolina fumbled
right back, and the game ended
with Elon in possession deep in
ser own territory.
Outstanding in the winning Pir
ate attack were Milton Collier.
Emo Boado and Bob Perry, while
Whitney Bradhan played bril-
liar;tly for Elon's losing cause.

penalty called the play back and
gave Ekin a first-and-iten. The
.Mountaineers would not be de
nied, however, and moments later
after Elon fumbled on an at
tempted punt the .Apps took over
on the Christian twerkty-nine and
drove for the final score. Jim
Kiser hammered over from the
three tor the TD that made it
9 to 0.
The rest of the game featured
the play of the Elon reserves, who
played defense with an eager spirit
but proved just as unable to move
the ball as had their varsity mates.
The game ended with Appalachian
in possesssion on the Elon thirty-
five.
Naming stars for Elon appears
almost impossible, although Sonny
Martin and Homer Hobgood had
bright moments backing the line.
hitney Bradham and Kerry
Richards carried most of the of
fensive burden, with Richards’
best play a 42-yard return of an
Ollis punt.
(Continued From Page Three)
And to the team itself, you boys
can come nearer than anyone else
to spotting just what the trouble
is, and you may be the only ones
V ho can mend the fault. We as
students are not telling you that
you have got to win for us to have
and show school spirit. No, not
that! We only ask you to at least
give us a team that plays 60 min
utes of good, hard football, and
we’ll still be with you all the way.
They say that school spirit is
best tested when a team is losing,
and maybe that is true, but it is
certainly far more pleasant and
much easier on the spirit to have
a winning team. We believe we
can still have just that.

Elon’s ’’Athlete of the Week”
for this week is quite definitely
and surely Whitney Bradham, who
put on an almost one-man show
last Saturday against East Caro
lina. He ran the ball with such
bull-force play after play that it
appeared for a time that he might
pull the game from the fire
single-handed. However, no back
can run every play and be ex
pected to last, not even a back as
good as Whitney. Others deserv
ing credit with Whit are Joe Del
Gais, Harry Faust and B. J. Moser,
a trio of freshman backs, and I'd
like to pass a bouquet to Sonny
Martin, who has looked good all
season and is one of the most de
pendable reserves on the team.

orking under a special grant of
“,2.100 made to the college earlier
this vear by The Research Corpor
ation.
The sum is one of the Frederick
C.ardener Cottrell grants, which
v.ere designed to stimulate aca
demic research and especially to
assist smaller colleges of the na
tion in their research programs.
In announcing the grant, which
came through during the early
summer, President Leon E. Smith
slated that ‘the Cottrell grant
comes as a recognition of the out
standing record and thorough in
struction of the Elon College
chemistry department, which re
cently added the B.S. Degree in
the chemistry curriculum, a pro
gram which requires original re
search by each degree candidate.
This grant provides encourage
ment and real assistance in the
program, and Elon is deeply grate
ful to The Research Corporation.”
Dean Danieley, in whose behalf
the grant was made, is a native of
Alamance County, where he re
ceived hisi eferly education. He
graduated from Elon College in
1946 and received the Ph.D. degree
from the University of North Car
olina, where he did his research
(in the field of cyclobutane chem
istry under the direction of Dr.
Arthur Roe.

school year.
In order for these books to I
seen and examined as soon as t-
sre processed, they will be plac
on shelves across from the cha-
Ing desk, where they will rem-
for at least two weeks before th
are placed in the stacks.
Many new titles may now be
found on these shelves, and the
may be charged out for two wee'
the same as any other book. If an
one finds one he would like ;j
borrow, he should take it to t
charging desk, and the desk a
tendant will make the necessa.
records.
Each succeeding library note
will announce the arrival of a fe
new books, and it is the sincer
hope of the library staff tha
every student may find at least
few books that afford both bene
fit and pleasure.
