He has trouble with FYench coursi's spelhng of the KnglLsh lani;uat>e often unique — so much so that editing Tom would only profane hi; curiouh technique Despite this, Mr Corbitt assured all and sundry thi. We shtmld, and I quote: "W'alch Elon. It’ll Win the tournament " The best part of young sports ed itor '.orbittprediction is that il was made before the tourney. In truth, il wiLK made in the face of : dis^i; 1: liiitmK ret^ular sea.son windu|i VSiih (,’orbitt sayint! we'd win, we couldn't lose. E\en coach Bill Miller, 1 sec, wa quoted in the press as being in ac cord with the Eastern Shore Mary land underi’raduatc. I exix-ct MilU foresaw that Jesse Bran.son, the No 1 Snow Camp, N.

S ' fifth-ranked High Foint. I have no qualm.s with any this, yet I hint that in addition to Corbitt's prognostication, a ca^o cage coach and five strong m; we find two other rea.sons: Uave Winfrey and Keid HughC' It IS a monumental wonder to me how Winfrey is able to stand up, much less walk. He has been through too many glass doors and bum,), by too many Belmont Abbey peo pie to be playing basketball, yet that is what he does and does it well. too. I have given some Uttle interest in matters Elon now for over two decades. I cannot recall anyone with more interior determin ation. There's a shorter word to describe his courage even better, but I'm remembering this is a (hristian newspaper. Uave Winfrey is a cla.ss unto himself. So is Reid Hughes. Tumbled from preferred ranks — aid, that is — Reid came back, anyway, as one of the more illustrious reserves Our Side ever counted. I recall his chart ing plays and getting in the way of game movies I shot all because he wa* an accomplished cheerleader in hLs own right from his quarters on the bench I asked him alwiit that a few weeks ago. How does it feel to be there when there's furiou action going on? "Oh. man, " Reid said. “It gets awful bad. There's nothing I can do. If I were playing. I could do something about it." Now. when Reid was, indeed, on the floor with the hot shots, he was well received in his accomplish ments. I recall the Elon faithful St tile Fort Eustis tourney giving our boy a round of applause gener ally reserved for The End Of The War. Honor student Hughes had a \)ig night against Loyol 1. H ■ gi.

The Other View (Continued From Page Two) the committee’s decision is a rec ommendation to the Dean of the College that the student be dismiss ed from the university immediately. In the system’s history, the com mittee’s recommendation has never been questioned, and always car ried out. The student’s records are destroyed and for all purposes, he never attended Princeton, his class never knew him. In a guilty case the undergraduate has. in however thoughtless a moment, placed him self apart from the whole under graduate body. The will of such an individual is restated in formal and irrevocable terms when he is perm anently separated from the uni versity.” “And remember to us. the viola tion observed but not reported is the violation condoned. The viola tion condoned is a breach of honor with one’s fellows. The silent ob server, as well as the cheater, is bound by mutual ties of faith and trust to the rest of the community. That is why the same penalty ap plies to the man who condones the cheating as to the man who cheats The Princeton honor system works — and it works with extraoi dinary rigor in the case of guilt.” Is their system at Princeton too harsh? Perhaps, but the content of this address on the student’s re sponsibilities to himself are the ■ same as Elon’s. If you think a min ute you will realize that the student is given almost complete power to govern himself. Elon. like Prince ton. places the maintenance of honor upon the student rather than the administration. This is as it should be. In other words, the emphasis is on the maturity of the students not the police action of the admin istration. I think a permanent pledge card and letter of explanation should be sent to all new students. Come to think of it. a permanent pledge card for everybody might not be a bad idea. If all work was pledged the need to write the pledge out on a i test or exam paper would be elim- he Fighting Christians could Ue inated.

Spollightin" (Continued From Page Three) in the history of Elon from the won- lost stand point. Dr. Danieley has already served notice to the base ball team that he wants that champ ionship also. Eh". Danieley himself will throw out the first ball when the season gets underway later in this windy month of March, and ihe outlook for another champion ship for Elon this year is excellent, since most of the 23-6 team of a year ago is back on hand. For those of you who like to look ahead, the Elon record for the long-' est championship winning streak on record is seven straight in the major sports, set between 1933 and 1935 Case Is Listed By Honor Court y The Honor Court, the judicial body of the Elon College Student Government Association, has just announced data on the second case which it has heard during the cur rent college year.

It stood about where present Alamance Building stood and was destroyed by fire in 1923, bring ing about the building of the central unit of Elon’s present modern plant. The second structure built on ilie Elon campus was East Dormitory, only one of the original buildings that still stands as Elon observed its 76th birthday this week. The Elon College doors opened to exactly 76 students on September 189C, those students being the nrerunners of the more than 1,300 students attending the college in its '«'h .onniversary year.
