Present System Suits Elon
New Meal Plan Is Exammed
Photographer Robert Wicker found a bit of modern
art in the construction of the new physical education
facility. I he building is scheduled for completion in
the summer.
By ROGER OLIVER
Of continuing concern
to the Elon student is the
problems of the cafeteria
-food services. The pre
sent system Is a con>
pulsory one, in which all
dormitory students must
purchase a meal ticket.
Last spring semester, a
poll was conducted in
which most students ex
pressed a dislike for the
present system, while en
couraging a change to
something else, either
pay-as-you-go or a com
bination of the two.
In pursuing this quest
ion, this reporter at
tempted to discover the
feasability of such a sys
tem change, and whether
or not any change is in the
making.
Coach Tolley’s
Article In Sports
Journal
“A Swing-end Offense
from the Single-Wing
Formation” is the title of
an article in the March
issue of the ATHLETIC
JOURNAL, a national
sports pijjlication. The
article is written by Jer
ry R. Tolley, offensive
coach at Elon, and con
cerns the switch that the
Elon Fighting Christians
made this year from an
unbalanced single - wing
formation to the swlng-
end offense.
In the article, Tolley
explains why the
Christians made the
switch in their offense.
"Finding ourselves with
two fine receivers and a
tailback who could throw
but not sweep the ends,
we had to alter our basic
singlewing formation in
order to get our receiv
ers in a more advantag
eous position for a well-
balanced passing attack.
...Out of necessity we
have found that the single
wing provides for an ideal
passing formation.”
The illustrated article
features action photos of
the '68-69 team and fo
cuses on players Burgin
Beale, Richard Mc-
George, Joe Rinaca, Em
ery Moore, and Jim Wall
er.
Tolley received his
B. S. and M. A. degrees
in physical education
from East Carolina Uni
versity. He has been a
member of the Elon
coaching staff for three
years.
Dr. Stokes Attends
Symposium
Dr. Durwood T. Stokes,
chairman of the depart
ment of social sciences
at Elon, attended a sym
posium sponsored by the
South Carolina Tri -
Centennial Commission
in Columbia, S. C. March
19-21.
The theme of the sym
posium was “The Place
of the Southern Colonies
In the Atlantic World.”
Dr. Stokes has written
several articles pertain
ing to the Tri - Cen
tennial’s theme which will
be published by “The
South Carolina Magazine
of History.”
W. E. Butler, Jr., the
college’s Business Man
ager, was interviewed as
to the school’s financial
and philosophical posi
tion. According to Mr.
Butler, Elon is ' too”
small to be able to suc
cessfully Incorporate a
pay-as-you-go system.”
He continued by stating
that the board fee helps
to cover overhead and the
“debt service,” that Is,
the fee covers payment
for the debt owed on the
building. Debt service for
McEwen is $5,800 and
for Harper, it is $17,000,
per annum.
The school administra
tion also feels that the
problems of individual fi
nancial conditions be
tween various students
would be increased by a
more expensive pay-as-
you-go system. Some stu
dents would be increased
dents simply could not af
ford a more expensive
meal plan.
As far as future plans
Mr. Butler stated that
probably what will be done
is to seek Improvements
in the present system.
Steve Bucko, Cafeteria
Manager, stated that he
felt a “pay - as - you -
go system would be detri
mental.” Mr. Bucko felt
that the present system
is the best that Elon, or
any other school could
offer. He admitted that the
system is far from per
fect as it now stands.
Hopefully, Slater’s at
tempts to up grade and
train further food pre
paration personnel will
pay off in better meals
and service in the pre
sent system, accordlngto
Mr. Bucko.
