Page 4 MAROON AND GOLD FRIDAY. OCTOBER 4.1968 Reid This TWV^RGANS^N^^STAGE features FACUL’n^ECITA^^^nn^^ j V s - > WHY ELON? Donnie McDaniel, of Wilmington, came to Elon because he couldn’t wait for a long-term study a- ward at N. C. State. Sophomore Jimny Burkes, a Danville min ister’s son, ran out of school at defunct Fred erick College. So he transferred to Elon. Francea Moyer, of Waynesboro, Va., visited our little old school be fore signing in. “I was thoroughly im pressed with Elon,” she said. “I was with a friend FRANCEA MOYER Elon Is Quaint .... and we both think Elon is really nice and small and quaint.” Quaint is her word, not mine. Ronnie Davis, of Ral eigh, brought somebody with him to the campus too. Davis is a transfer from Chowan College, a junior college at Mur freesboro. His girl friend over there, Bet sey Goodwin, from New port News, Va., was all set to attend Radford Col lege, one of the largest girls’ schools in the na tion, but she thought it might just be cozier to transfer to little Elon in stead, specially in view of the fact that she is now Mrs. Ronnie Davis. Steve Helms, football operative deluxe, is wearing Fighting Chris tian togs for a reason Did H. admires hearing. The 235-pound guard from Fayetteville wanted an education to play foot ball. He knew good and well he’d get treated in fine fashion by Messrs. Red Wilson and Mickey Brown, two of the gen tlemen who are in charge of our football future. Any time we get an athlete on a premise that he needs Elon and Elon needs him, we’re ahead of the game. Check me after Novem ber 16th to see if I’m correct. Sophomore Donnie Falk, of Hampton,spoke well of Elon, enough to interest Michael An thony, another huge, huge footballer from Fork Un ion Military Academy, to Moore Gets Three Scores At Guilford DTI I WAT WPR V By: BILL WALKER Striking with power on the ground after finding their air attack somewhat slowed , the Fighting Christians continued their early drive toward a Carolinas Conference title by beating the Guil ford Quakers 21 to 10 before a packed crowd in Greensboro High School Stadium last Sat urday night. Emery Moore , hard- running Elon fullback, af ter pacing the rushing in the opener with Concord, bulled over for all three Elon touchdowns during the game, going over from the one in each case, and Grover Helsley kicked good after each TD for the 21 points. Elon needed only twelve plays for the first score, driving 80 yards with a Burgin Beale to Joe Rin- aca pass getting 36 yards of the distance to the two- yard marker. Only other score in the first half saw Guilford hit on a field goal which left the half- time score 7 to 3. A Guilford interception blocked the first Elon threat in the second half but Elon recovered the ball on a fumble, and Grover Helsley was close on a field goal attempt that missed. Moments later Ronnie O’Brien raced 63 yards to the Quaker two, and Moore again bulled in from the one for a TD. Larry Raines set up Elon’s final TD with an the point of transferring. And then, we have an other reason for some body’s selecting this place...Old H. ran out of junior college time him self back in the early Forties, so he decided he would have a lark and go to the college with the funniest name he could find. Ursinus, Pestaloz- zi-Froebel Teachers and Slippery Rock were con tenders, but Elon won. Well, it turned out that H., through sheer dumb luck made one of the wisest decisions ever. Elon turned out pretty good, and I like to think that I did too, all because of Elon. Two-Organ Rendition Features In Recital interception return to the five, and Emery Moore got his third score of the night, with Helsley booting good for a 21-3 edge. Later that period Guil ford got her only touch down, set up when the Quakers grabbed an Elon fumble at the Christian thirty-six. A pass from Tavalaro to Dent put the ball on the three, and Tommy Peguese scored from there. FIGURE FACTS Elon Guilford 14 First Dovms 12 173 Yds. Gain. Rush. 177 23 Yds. Lost Rush. 36 150 Net Yds.

By JOE GOLDBERG Opening the series of faculty music recitals for the 1968-69 term. Prof. Richard Apperson, new comer to the Elon College music department, pre sented an organ recital in Whitley Auditorium on Sunday afternoon, Sep tember 22nd. A special feature of this first faculty recital was a duo-organ number, which proved both unique and delightful, featuring Professor Apperson a- long with Prof Fletcher Moore, dean of the col lege and longtime head of the Elon music de partment. Apperson, pcitured at the keyboard of the or gan at the left in the a- bove picture, and Dean Moore, shown at the key board of the organ at the right, joined to present “Concerto No. 1 in C- Major for Two Organs,” a composition by Soler. organs proved to be an outstanding feature of the Sunday program, but Pro fessor Apperson himself earned praise with tiis own program, which in cluded ' Concerto No. 1 in G-Minor,” by Handel; “Larghetto in F-Sharpe Minor,” by Wesley; “Prelude and Fugue inC, Major,” by J. S. Bach; “Choral No. II in B-Min- or,” by Franck; and “Prelude and Fugue in B-Major,” by Dupre. Ap person, greeted by tre mendous applause, re turned for a masterful encore.

The game will show two of the finest aerial at tacks in the Tar Heel state in action, with Elon featuring Burgin Beale and Appalachian depend ing on Pat Murphy. The final decision could de pend on the defensive This rendition on two competition. Freshmen Addressed (Continued from page 2) which recently received the unanimous approval of the Elon turstees. In this statement, Dr. Danieley cited the fact that Elon College has long been committed to student participation in institu tional government, and he mentioned the various joint committees of fa culty and students which have long sought to im prove campus communi cation between admini stration and faculty and students. Also as part of the statement, it was made clear that the college will take a firm stand in re gard to any disturbances which might interrupt classes, laboratories, work or other activities which represent a nor mal part of the educa tional process. In closing he urged the freshmen to work ser iously on their studies, to be good campus citizens, to broaden their horizons through participation in varied activities and to learn to look for the good rather than the bad in or der to make their college years the finest four years of their lives.
