HOW IT HAPPENED
'CoatiMMd frrai Pag* Threal
The Elon paailng attack ha*
held an even greater adge over
the opposition, for Christian pasa-
er* have completed 25 of ton
es for 380 yard*, while the enemy
pa*aer* have completed only 18
of 47 attempu for Ju*t 211 yard*
With *uch an edge over the op-
poBltlod for thi* season. It 1* equal
ly pleasing to note that the Christ
ians have made a much better
average on both offense and de
fense than did the Elon eleven of
a year ago The Chnstlan* have
averaged 253 8 yard* per game
on offense thU fall, far ahe»d
of last year* average of 189 5
yard* per game. The Elon de-
I'a* limited the opponents
to a game of average of 199 3
jHrds. much le*a than the 260.1
yard* per game allowed the op-
position last y^ar
In the face of all tiese figures,
one may ask Just how and why
the Christian, of 1961 could have
»o«t three of their first four game«.

black magic in the form of school

Homecoming is, of course,
climaxed by tke dance Saturday

better make a point to do it
right away—someone else might
beat you to it. Let's make this

chances to step around the floor
to the music of such a lively
