Christian Football Squad
Drops Catamount Contest
REID THIS/
ELON’S HOMECOMING QUEEN
The “Three P’s” proved fatal to the
Elen Christians as they dropped a 34
to 0 battle to the Western Carolina
Catamounts at Cullowhee on October
29th, for passes counted two TD’s,
plunges counted three more, and pen
alties at inopportune moments counted
heavily in the disastrous result.
The Christians made a tight battle
of it during the first half, with Wil
liams passing to Holden for a 36-yard
score ninety seconds before the break
to trigger a 7-0 halftime lead for the
Cats; but the second half saw four
other enemy scores.
I’m not certain I know how to meet
the threat of progress gracefully.
For 22 years. I’ve been accustomed
to the Maroon and Gold in a great
big size, printed in a type face that
may well have been the pilot model
for Gutenberg’s press. Truthfully, it
was a dirty paper. That’s a trade
phrase—I don’t mean dirty like in
shady jokes although I confess I have
managed to sneak a few by in this
dumb column. By dirty, a newspaper
man means smudged ink and typos as
well. I expect Luther Byrd, who is
head muckety-muck on the M & G,
used to operate by the rule that if you
have one error, you might leave well
enough alone because you could end
up with three more in the correction.
Don’t laugh. It happens on a daily at
which I toil. Only last week in a 48-
point headline—that’s big—I do not
like to tell you what happened when
somebody dropped an “s” in the word
“shell,” but I do infer it looked like—
well, it was pretty bad.
I could see the changes coming in
the M & G when Luther swore off
smoking cigars. I think some of his
fire was missing right then. Next, that
heavyweight in the office with the
nameplate of Dr. Earl Daniely on the
door upset the fool out of me by
taking Luther’s 1918 Underwood out
and replacing it with a stupid stream
lined typewriter that has plastic keys
on it. They are not even metal, much
less round.
Now, we have a dinky paper printed
by somebody off campus.
That’s another thing.
Our outsized M & G may have been
bad and full of Joe Miller jokes to fill
up, but, by heaven, it was ours. I
guess the M & G was about the only
college paper printed by college
people on campus, compounded by
students and folded by same. In my
time, all of this endeavor was carried
on in a room just off the colonades
in the science building. This was the
best necking place on campus. I wish
I had used it for such.
A happy fellow named Brownie ran
the linotype machine. Thomas Wolfe
—a Burlington student; not the writer
—ran the press. I ran my mouth.
The new M & G? Why, I can see
what the pictures look like, now. It has
a neat, no-nonsense format. There will
be little room for columns, but
Luther can shove in a lot of news in
going weekly. We went weakly.
I guess the new look is all for the
best.
H-mm. What's this? I am looking
at Page Three of the first issue in the
Elon-Presbyterian football story in
column one. It says: “ . . . the fourth
renewal of their old football rivalry.”
The new look still has the old typo
look about it.
Okay. I am now reconciled to the
improvements of the modern Maroon
and Gold.

Catawba Game
(continued from page 3)
The Indians were down but not
completely out of the game, for they
did a bit of rebounding of their own
in the fourth quarter as Jim Moose
tossed to Taylor again for a 53-yard
TD play, and Scott unlimbered for an
82-yard TD bomb to Rad Kivette.
Elon’s defense rallied at that point to
protect the final 39 to 26 victory.
