PAGE 4 REID THIS / MAROON AND GOLD EIGHT HOmR STVDEmS ARE FRIDAY, JANUARY 12, 1968 Oiltls And Ends Notations on a recent visit to Elon by this old timer: Diagonal brick walkway on campus in front of West a shrewd addition. In my time, we wore down the grass there anyway. C.V. May showed me the new library, if you’re going there to study, you’ll do all right. For clandestine social trysts, I’m not prepared to say. Athletic director Dee Atkinson and I verbally straightened out the world. He and I are in accord on one point:You younger folks have it far, far better than we did. We had less, but we may have enjoyed it more, if I may say so. I hear a lot of fuss about student support for athletics. Well, I found no fault with responses to cheerleader calls at the High Point-Elon basket ball game, in fact, I think you all did exceedingly well in both enthusiasm as well as courtesy. I am moved to opine we may not have had the better team, but we easily defeated High Point rooters in sportsmanship. Imagine— their cheerleaders en couraged booing and had massed cheers pocked with profanity and nau- ghty-naughties as well. Nuts to that! Hey! How about Sandy Bergman’s charges doing that somersault cheer? That’s the living end. Regarding that new building behind the gym — the best feature of that is it will be hidden behind the gym. Architectural lines of the new struc ture are as graceful as an Erector set. Switchboard in the cen ter of Alamance—that’s something. We only had one phone on campus and that as on the wall—with a crank, too—inside West. It got locked up with the girls every night at 10:30. One night, I got locked up in there too. What a hang-up that was. A contingent of Greek beautifes, after viewing some slides and flicks I showed, proffered pro fuse tliank-yous. Those girls certainly imported top-quality manners. That first-floor con ference room in Mooney where the funny looking yellow chairs are was the dining hall in my time. And the book store was in Alamance just across from where Ken Hollings worth now mans the switchboard. I see little Dodge City looks about the same.Only thing is that miniature golf course interferes with proper display of class numbers I painted on the outer walls of the furniture store. And that was the post office when I was at I' lon. n I The eight academic honor students who were inducted into the Order of the Oak, Elon College honor society, in ceremonies held just prior to the Christmas days, are pictured above.

Varsity Views (Continued from Page3) the football program and be a strong recruiting point for obtaining future players. The track team needs facilities. The track a- round the practice foot ball field is suitable for go-cart racing but cer tainly not for track e- vents. Track participants have had to use Burling ton Municipal Stadium in which to practice during past years. The baseball team does have a stadium, of sorts, but the stands at the base ball field are badly in need of repair. The team has to do the grounds keeping chores, and to get the grass mowed it is ne cessary to bribe the “man with the mowing ma chine.” It is a sad state of affairs when you have to bribe a man to do his job. If anyone has any com ments on the Elon ath letic program, pro or con, feel free to voice them to me. To those that have in the past, I thank you. High Point (Continued from Page 3) Henry Goedeck, Elon center, led both teams for the night with 19 points, and Bill Bowes hit 14 and Tom McGee 13 for the Christians, but the Pan thers had four men in dou ble figures in the winning attack.

The loss was the se venth straight for Elon after winning the first three tilts of the season. The Christians kept the score close throughout the first half, but the Ag gies managed a scant 40- 36 lead at the break, and then came seven minutes of very fine battling ear ly in the second half, with the A. and T. cagers pulling out their big lead in the closing moments. Henry Goedeck had one of his finer nights of the season as he banged in 26 points for Elon, and led the way for both teams in the game with twelve field goals and two free throws. Tommy Davis had 12 points to trail Goedeck for Elon. Soapy Adams rung up 19 points to pace the win ning Aggies, and three of his mates were also in double figures for the night, which saw the win ners hit 29 field goals and Elon 27 from the floor.

Duke Mat Team Downs Elon In Opening Meet The Duke wrestling squad turned back the Elon College mat team 29 to 5 in a match at Dur ham on December 15th. The match marked the introduction of wrestling as a varsity sport on the Elon campus. A number of the matches were very close on points, and the Christians made a much better showing than the meet score would indi cate. Emery Moore, Elon’s heavyweight grappler, chalked the only indivi dual win for the Chris tians as he turned back Duke’s Arthur Morgan by a 7-4 point decision to gain three points for the Christians. It was the first defeat for the Duke star in two seasons. Tom Jernigan got Elon’s other points on a draw match with Duke’s Jack Gober. The summary: 123 POUNDS—Donovan (D) decisioned Allison. 130 POUNDS — Aber nathy (D) decisioned Dean. 137 POUNDS — Newton (D) decisioned Larrabee. 145 pounds — Ferniss (D) decisioned Oliphant. 152 POUNDS — Jerni gan (E) drew with Gober. 160 POUNDS--Kimball (D) pinned Frank. 167 POUNDS — Van Asselt (D) pinned Harri son. 177 POUNDS — Bloom (D) decisioned Goins.

THE COAST GUARD Nearly 200 years old, our Coast Guard was first established to en force tariff laws and guard against smug glers. During the 1 800's, the CoastGuard successfully mounted a campaign to wipe out piracy in the Gulf of Mexico and the Carib bean. Serving on land a* well as sea, a Coast Guard base in the Libyan desert helps ships fix their posi tions even on ovei^ cast days. Timed radio signals from a “master” station to a “slave” station enable navigators to determine exactly where they are.
