North Carolina Athletic
Association Gets New Rules
By KENNY BROOKS
CHITTUNG TEST
The North Caroliiia Commu
nity College Athletic Associa
tion has adopted four new rules
for the coming basketball sea
son, Joe Linney, president elect
of the association announced.
The first of these rules is the
adoption of the red, white and
blue ball, but will still be two
ounces lighter than the official
American Basketball Associa
tion ball. This ball will only be
used in scheduled conference
games.
The association has also a-
dopted the regulation ABA three-
point play rule. This means
any shot taken outside a 25 foot
radius of the basket will count
three points instead of the usual
two.
Another adoption made by the
Yesterday’s
War
I am the memory of the past,
the forgotten changer of history,
the building blocks of nations.
I am conqueror and liberator,
hero and villian, patriot and but
cher. I am the dead of yester-
day^s war.
I have huddled cold and scared
in the forests of Norway and
the jungles of Luzon. My feet
have trod the deck of the Duke
of York and the hard dirt floor
of Dachau. I have watched the
ships in Scapa Flow and the
misty iron sky at Dover. I have
laughed and sung and drunk my
beer and I have worried and
wept and prayed. And I have
died.
How can I, a living breathing
feeling being, be reduced in an
instant to a mere shadow ’n the
memory of another?
A brother in Lintz enters a
room once pealing with gaiety
and good will and remembers
me.
A comrade in Antrim sits and
sips from his glass at an-Bmpty,
lonely table and remembers me.
A mother in Kyoto finds a
cap buried in an old, rusting,
seldom-opened trunk and re
members me.
A girl in Adelaide discovers
a letter in a dusty, broken, for
gotten volume and remembers
me.
For a moment my spector in
vades their memory - then flick
ers - then fades and I die again.
I am the dead of yesterday’s
war.

NCCCAA is a new foul shot re
gulation. Under this ruling, the
first six team fouls made, the
team fouled will be awarded the
ball out of bounds instead of given
a foul shot except in the instance
of a foul committed while aplayer
is in the act of shooting. In this
case the player will be awarded
free throws under the old rule.
Last of all, to fulfill the de
sires of the spectators, the dunk
shot has been legalized once a-
gain.
In talking with Joe Linney,
coach of the Cougars of Wilkes
Community College, he stated
that the way the Cougars are
presently developing and with
a few preseason games under
their belt, they will definitely
be a contender in the conference
race under these new rules.
NCCCAA Splits Conference
The Community College Ath
letic Association has also split
the conference into two divisions
similar to the association splits
now existing in both the Na
tional Basketball Association and
the American Basketball Asso
ciation.
Wilkes Community College is
in theWestern Division along with
Cleveland Technical Institute,
Davidson County Community Col
lege, Gaston College, and Surry
Community College. In the East
ern Division with Beaufort Coun
ty Technical Institute, Cape Fear
Technical Institute, Fayetteville

If you happen to walk by the bul
letin board in the student com
mons, burn an extra calorie by
affixing your name to the list of
those people interested in form
ing a ski club at WCC.
Mr. Jim Martin, sponsor of
the club, has managed to get some
rather large discounts at the Sug
ar Mountain Ski Area, and all that
is needed is a large turnout of
members. The reduced rates will
apply to lift tickets.
Sampson County is North
Carolina’s largest county.
