Page 4 MAROON AND GOLD Friday, November 8, 1968 Reid This MY BIG ?iIGHT One of the more mem orable nights at Elon was the one I spent in West. I was on a trip to Gra ham County and needed a place to stay. West looked as good as any. Some of my bosom pals used to live there, as I recall. So, this buddy of mine and I lit into West about 10:30 one night. No sense in being formal, we thought, so we got com fortable. That meant shedding shirt and trou sers, or course. It was a hot night. That being the case, I needed a shower. Mind you. I’m not a showoff. 1 did drape my self with a towel. I had some difficulty finding the girls’ shower. Location of things surely have changed since 1 was at Elon. I bumbled about on those first floor cor ridors, feeling like an idiot in a loin cloth. Still, there were no ob jections. Well, it was a pretty good shower. I sang a few off-key stanzas of “Here’s To Dear Old Elon,” while soaking up some warm water. 1 see the coeds have hot water, now. Then — let’s see. Oh, yes. I went for a easy paced shave. I forget what else I did while 1 was in the ladies room. I remember, though, that no one interrupted. Then, I sacked out. It was not natal day, but I celebrated, anyway, in my birthday suit. Meantime, my pal, a chicken inspector (no kidding — he works for the Virginia Agriculture Department’s poultry di vision), forsook modesty and headed for the shower minus towel. Again, no protests. Oh, yes. There is one teeny-weeny detail in these bare facts I suppose I should have told you. We booked into West be tween semesters when there were no tenants -- not even the first girl there. But if 1 had mentioned that, you wouldn’t have read this far. Westafer Is Judge For Piano Event Prof. Walter Westafer, member of the Elon Col lege music faculty, was at Atlantic Christian Col lege in Wilson the last weekend in October to serve as judge for the piano events in the state wide auditions held under the auspices of the North Carolina Music Teachers Association. These auditions, which were for both high school and college students, are part of the nationwide program of auditions held by the Music Teachers National Association, One entry from the North Car olina auditions will rep resent the state in the southern division events in Birmingham, Ala, in January. Prof. Westafer is at present a member of the National Executive Board of the Music Teachers National Association. NEWBERRY (Continued from page 3) ed then to drop the next four consecutive battles. The Newberry squad, playing its first season under the tutelage of Coach Fred Herren.who stepped in this fall as successor to the veteran Harvey Kirkland, lost heavily from its veteran team of a year ago and proceeded to drop three games in succession to Appalachian, Catawba and Lenoir Rhyne before sal vaging its first win a- gainst Concord by a 27 to 6 count. The Indians then lost to Wofford and Jack sonville State in the next two games. Comparative scores on some games would indi cate a very close battle between the Christians and Indians tomorrow night, for Appalachian toppled Elon 70 to 26 and rolled over Newberry 55 to 14. Elon ground out a 66 to 12 win over Con cord, and Newberry top pled the same team 27 to 6. However, the history of the Elon-Newberry rival ry has shown that it mat ters little what the pre vious record of the two teams may have been,the fans can always expect a rugged and head-knocking contest when the two teams get together.

Beale And Moore Top Offense (Continued from page 3) ing yards gained by Elon in the first six games of the year. Combining the total yards gained by Burgin Beale and Emery Moore, the figures show that the two big Christian stars have gained a total of 1,740 yards, and the Elon squad as a whole had gain ed only 2,059 yards in combined passing and rushing. This meant that Beale and Moore as a twosome had gained more than 85 per cent of all the yards credited to Elon in six games. Richard McGeorge,de spite the rugged defense thrown at him in the Ca tawba engagement, still pulled in seven of Beale’s throws against Catawba for a total of 119 yards, and this moved him to 585 yards on pass re ceptions in six games this fall and a three-year to tal of exactly 2100 yards on passes caught. He had caught 14 TD passes in his three seasons, not counting the Catamount tilt. Along with these new records by BealeandMc- George, both Grover Helsley and Ronnie O’ Brien have also come up with the new individual marks in the first six games this season. Hels ley’s nine extra point kicks against Concord broke the old mark of six in a single game, and O’Brien has run back punts for a total of 388 yards and has run back combined punts and kick- offs for a total of 525 yards, each of which rep resents a new seasonal mark in Elon’s all-time statistics.
