REID THIS/
feto]
It was a silly day, with snow and
all. The only thing good about it was
the warming telephone conversation
of one Red Wilson, football mentor
of dear little Elon College.
About two sentences with him and
I get the idea we may set something
on fire this year, hopefully more than
the Glen Raven Athletic Club and the
Haw River YMCA.
“We’ll work from a single wing,”
he said.
This, within itself, pleases old H.
That is because he played single
wing. Matter of fact, I played Elon
wartime ball in that formation. I
think I was the high scorer that year
of an extremely informal schedule. I
tallied seven points. Now, look, you.
Don't laugh. Not until you hear
how many points the team made all
year, which was, as you by now sus
pect, seven.
Anyway, Wilson will have our
lads in this single wing business with
jazzy variations.
Perhaps a word about single wing
is in order for the unlettered young
ladies who bravely have read this far.
Well, it is a way the football people
line up when they want to take the
ball from one end of the field to the
other. It is an old way of operating
—so much so, that in this day and
age, it may just work. After all,
vaudeville is ancient enough to be
like new.
Lenoir Rhyne and East Carolina
use single wing if that is of any in
terest. Gary Jordan played in that
arrangement when he was at Holland
High School. This particular Holland,
by way of explanation, is in Virginia.
It is near Chuckatuck and Capron if
that locates Holland for you any
better. Gary’s home town is not too
far away from Chesapeake, nee
South Norfolk, where Wilson once
toiled as high school coach. At the
time, I was teaching at Norview
High in old Norfolk County. We had
a bunch of raggle taggle gladiators
who were simply smashing in every
regard except the final score. We
thought we had a chance against
Wilson’s team. That’s all it was. A
thought. I was impressed with the way
Red had things moving over there
and if he does likewise at our col
lege, we are in for better times. We’d
better be. We’ve just lost first string
majorette Anne Stegall through grad
uation, nuptials and everything else.
In the past two seasons, she managed
to keep people in the stands as half-
time attraction.
This leads us to another star fea
ture: Charlie Justice. I understand he
will be helping Wilson in coaching
tasks. I was roaming with Jack Cloud
at William and Mary when Choo
Choo scalped our Indians with reg
ularity.
Choo Choo . . . That reminds me.
In newspaper work, the letter “w”
takes up twice as much space as a
normal letter in a headline. Okay?
One day, I phoned a headline to the
typesetters: Choo Choo Runs Again.
“It won’t fit,” my man in the
backshop said later.
"Why not?”
“Well, see for yourself,” he said,
handing me a galley proof:
Chew, Chew Runs Again.
It was those w’s that got me.
Use 4c Stamps
For M-G Mailing
The tiny mailing label printed in
the upper comer of this page of the
Maroon and Gold applies only to
copies of the newspaper mailed in the
bulk form by the college, and indi
vidual students who mail copies of
the Maroon and Gold to their home
folks must wrap the copies and place
four cents in stamps on them.
This information is published be
cause several individual students have
simply placed addresses on single
copy papers and placed them in the
post office without stamps, thinking
that the printed postal label applied
to such mailing. Such copies are
simply turned back by the post of
fice authorities, so students are warn
ed again that any copies they mail
must be wrapped and carry four cents
in stamps.
Elon Annual
Is Accorded
Hi^h Rating
The Phi Psi Cli, Elon's year
book publication, won All-American
recognition in the annual ratings is
sued by the National School Year
book Association and also received
a “Superior” rating from the Colum
bia Scholastic Press Association.
Max Ward, president of the Del-
mar Printing Company, which pub
lished the 1966 yearbook for Elon
College, sponsored the entry of the
Phi Psi Cli in the national competi
tion of the National School Year
book Association, and he expressed
himself as well pleased with All-
American rating given the publication.
The 1966 Phi Psi Cli was sub
mitted to the Columbia Scholastic
Press Association by Robert C. Bax
ter, director of development, who
served as advisor for the annual. He
expressed pleasure at the “Superior”
rating won from that organization.
Both critique groups graded the
Phi Psi Cli as “Superior” and gave
especially high grading on outstand
ing art work, original copy, new ap
proach to layouts and excellent stu
dent photographs. The judges felt
that the theme was appropriate to
the college and carried out in a well
organized fashion.
The editor-in-chief for the 1966
edition of Phi Psi Cli was Alex Oliver,
of Suffolk, Va., but he gives much
credit for the excellence of the an
nual to the outstanding work done
by three associate editors, who work
ed with Oliver in preparing the year
book for the printers. They were Sue
Kimball Boone and Fred Bright, both
of Burlington, and Robert Bagnall,
of Chuckatuck, Va.
Oliver also extended high praise
to the student staff members who
served in various other posts, among
them the business manager, Rita
Apple, of Burlington, and those who
served in departmental positions for
sports, art work, features, fraternity
and sororiety sections and in compil
ing the various class sections of the
book.
Among these departmental workers
were Laura Rice, Dolly Walker and
Vickie Riley, of Burlington; Sandra
Bueschel, Graham; Stanley Boone,
Durham; Nancy Boone, Orefield, Pa.;
Sue Jager, Pawtucket, R. I.; Nancy
Coolidge, Amston, Conn.; Claire
Webb, Suffolk, Va.; Lydia Farrell,
Pittsboro; and Sharon Smith, Mer
rick, N. Y.

Catamounts
Topple Elon
By 83 To 69
The Fighting Christians of Elon
fought the Western Carolina Cata
mounts tooth-and-toenail and bucket-
for-bucket through the first half at
Cullowhee on Saturday night, Febru
ary 4th, but the homestanding Cata
mount cagers broke ahead early in
the final half and went on to top Elon
83 to 69 in their Carolinas Conference
battle.
Henry Logan, Western Carolina’s
sharpshooting guard, led both teams
with 21 points and moved past the
2,000-point mark in career scoring
during the game. Four other Cats were
in double figures to give a balanced
attack for the Cats’ entire starting five.
Captain Tommy Davis, Elon guard,
had another of his fine nights as he
led the Christian shooters with 20
points on eight field buckets and per
fect four-for-four at the charity
stripe. Other Christians in double dig
its were Tom McGee with 12, Henry

Student Center
(continued from page 1)
Elon College seal facing the doorway.
On either side wall are large display
cases for trophies or other items.
Opening from the foyer at the right
is the Student Center receptionist’s
office and at the right is the room
which houses the campus mail
boxes for the students.
The foyer merges at the rear into
a hallway which leads on the right
to the Varsity Shop, which offers
complete lunch and snack service to
students and faculty, and at the op
posite end of the hall is the Campus
Shop, which carries a complete line
of textbooks and academic supplies
for the campus inhabitants.
Also housed in the building are
quarters for the student health serv
ices, along with a large meeting
room for campus gatherings, a spac
ious lounge with comfortable couches
and chairs, television viewing room,
music listening rooms, small con
ference rooms and game rooms to
help students whileaway their leisure
hours. Also included are office quar
ters for the Student Government as

The entire building is beautifully
decorated and is equipped with fur
niture and equipment of the most
modem and comfortable design. A
special feature of the Varsity Shop
IS the fact that the food is served
from a gleaming cafeteria type ser
vice counter and that it offers cus
tomers a choice of either comfort
able booths or tables for eating and
lounging.

ADVOCATUS DIABOLI
(continued from page 2)
instilling the necessary standards.
Is this problem universal? Yes.
Students are always trying to out
smart the professor, by plagerisn).
copying another student’s test, or
stealing a copy of the exam. As much
as we students would like to “pass
the buck”, it is our own lazy egocen
tric self who is to blame. May
there is lack of respect for the school
or professor and in some cases even
the parents.
But this does not give us the right
to commit aggressions. What
should do is try that much harder to
rise above the situation and abide by
the law. Aggression toward unethical
or immoral standards is as unethical
as the ones that exist.
