BASKETBALL
by Fred Brown
This year Coach Jerry Steele has
a new assistant by the name of Jack
Jensen. Coach Steele "recruited'
this personable young coach from
Elkin High School where he was
head basketball coach for the past
two years. Coach Steele and Coach
Jensen became acquainted with
each other when they were students
.it Wake Forest. Originally, Coach
Jensen comes from New Jersey
where he first learned the skills
of the game we Quakers tend to
veally like.
According to Coach Steele and
Coach Jensen, some of the maai
weaknesses of the Quakers will be
lack oi experience, ueptii, and over
ail height. Enthusiasm, hustle, and
good pnysical condition are a levs
of the strong points of the
Quakes."

THE GUILFORDIAN
**"*-' t %si "* **** ,
Quakers Whip Newberry
Over g.OOO fans, the largest single
crowd ever to attend a Guilford
College athletic contest, saw the
most thrilling victory for Guil
ford and the worst defeat for New
berry of the season, in Guilford's
annual homecoming game. It was
the first time since that Guil
ford has beaten Newberry. New
berry has beaten the Quakers thir
teen consecutive times. The Quak
er team beat Newberry by moie
[joints than any other team has
so far tins season with a score of
25 to 7.
Newberry, havng been beaten
by Lenoir Rhyne and Appalachian,
came into the game with a confer
ence recoid of 1 and 2. Guilford's
record at this time was 1-1, and
their overall record was 4 wins 2
losses. Guilford was then tied with
Wesiern Carolina for third place
in the conference standings.
The Quaker team was sparked
by freshman quarterback, Bubba
Brock well. This was te first start
ing apportunity Brockwell has had
this year, but he played like an
"all American." Bill liurchette, the
regular quarterback, was absent
due to an injury sustained in prac
tice the Wednesday before the
game. The substitution was a sui
prise maneuver.
The first quarter was scoreless,
oerng mainly a defensive battle.
Then, in the second quarter, rum
my Grayson intercepted a pass,
thrown by Newberry's Benji khk
land, on Guilford's 30 yard line
and returned it to Newberry's 40.
Brockwell, on the next play, filed
a pass to Danny McKa) in the end
zone. Guilford now led by a scon;
of 6-0. Newberry's only chance ro
score in the lirst halt came lale in
the second quarter on a pass inter
ception. They marched to the
Gurlford 2r yard line where a
stubborn Quaker defense stopped
them cold. Newberry was then iorc
ed to try for a field goal on fourth
down, lire attempt failed, and
Guilford still Jed 6-0 going into
the seond half.
Guilford's second score came lace
m the third quarter, when the
Quaker ollense marched 70 yards
to Newberry's 17 yard line. Quar

GRAYSON RETAINS
SCORING LEAD
(by John Morgan)
Tommy Grayson, the leading
scorer in the Carolinas Confer
ence, exploded for 141 yards in 5
carries to lead the Quakers to a
thrilling 17-14 victory Saturday
over Randolph Macon College.
The first Quaker score came
with 12:30 remaining in the third
period when wingback Danny
Wheeling carried the ball 73 yards
threw a pass to McKay in the end
.one for out second score. The score
was now an impressive 12-0.
Newberry, in the same quarter,
scored their first and last touch
down of the game. Their touch
down dri\e was sparked by a 55
yard punt, return to the Guilford
five yard line. Here our defensive
unit put on a remarkable show of
strength and ability, but New
berry gained the short yardage
needed and went over for the score
However. It took them four downs
in which to do it. Their kick was
good, and the score was an unc.oin
tortabie 12-7. Guilford, in the iouv
th quartet, iengthend the lead
vth another touchdown, led by
Tommy Grayson's second intercep
tion of tire game. The score was
now 18-7.
What look place next, was one
of the most remarkable defensive
plays of the game and of the sea
son for Guilford. Newberry, on an
impressive drive, had marched to
Guilford's six yard line. On the
next play, they gained five yards
to Guilford's two yard line, ft was
now second down, and it looked
iike a sure Newberry score, but our
defense, led by Ronnie Winslow,
stopped Newberry dead in then
tracks lor the next thiee plays; and
Guilford retained possession of the
ball.
Our last score came when Tom
my Gravson succeeded in bringing
the ball* to Newberry's three ymd
line. Boccuzzi then came into the
game and went over for the score.
Grayson then kicked the exua
point which made the final score
25-7. This kick boosted Graysors s
private point collection to 60
points, the highest in the confer
ence.
With this win, the (Quakers have
more wins this season than any
other Guilford team since 194 ft,
with a record of five wins and two
losses.

Coach Stewart,
Profile
by Fred Brown
Coach Stewart was born in Flint,
Michigan; and at the age of six
moved to Virginia. In Virginia he
became interested in football by
playing guard in "sandlot" foot
ball.
In High School he was a tail
back in the "single-wing" offensive
iormauon until his senior year
when he switched to fullback. That
)ear his high school was undeteat
ed. During his high school tenure
t 's an athlete, Coach Stewart let
icied in tour dillerent sports.
When his college years began,
Coach Stewart, iniluenced by ins
parents, decided to become a den
tist. At Ferjum Jr. College he pay
ed ail sports while puisuing liis
pre-dental studies. From Ferium he
transferred to the University of
North Carolina at Chapel Hill
where he was ineligible atnieticull y
for one year. Alter he became
eligible ne played tailback (once
again in the "single-wing' forma
tion) and defensive halfback until
an injury cm tailed his football ca
leer. He then concentrated oil
high jumping and boxing. In fact
e,oach Stewart became so adept at
boxing that he was granted a two
vear teaching fellowship in boxing
and physical education. He is
ihe onlv undergraduate at U.
N. C. to be granted a teaching
iellowship.
The summer after he finished
pre-dental, he coached sandlot
uaseball and managed a city recre
ation program. This was ttie turn
ing point 111 Coach Stewart's career,
ite returned to school and majored
in physical education, in audiuon
to pre-dental science. Soon alter
graduation he received a coaching
job at Evergreen High School, in
Columbus County Noith Carolina,
which has since been consolidated.
Alter coaching at Evergreen tor
to year he went to neighboring
U'hiteside High School and coacli
cd for three years.
Leaving Columbus County, he
moved to Garner where he was
athletic diiector and head coadi
lor seven years. During tnose seven
\ears, Coach Stewart's Garner team
became one ol the strongest a-A
teams in the state. Frequently they
yave ,j-A teams such as Raleigh and
Rocky Mount more trouble than
they could handle. Several of the
boys on that team have since come
to Guilford to paiticipate in sports.
Many ot the upperclassmen remem
ber such b-'ys as the Joye lirouieis,
ute bulhdoe Twins, Micky Faulk,
•inel I'aul Updegratf.
During his twelve years of high
>chool coaching, Coach Stewart has
oacheel ail sports at one time or
another and has suifered only one
losing season in just one sport
football.
He was an assistant for one year
under Coaih Appenbeller and then
in 1963 took o\er the reins as Guil
ford's head football mentor. The
1963 season was a nightmare for
.ill Guilfordians as our team was
0-10. The next year, after admin
istrative and financial support tor
more and bigger scholarships, we
were 4 5. This year under the guid
ance ol Coach Stewart, Coach Lam
beth and Coach Johnson, the team
ended 8-s.
For a change, Coach Stewart has
had depth 011 the bench which has
helped offset the difficulties caused
by serious injuries.
In 19(14 Coath Stewart was elect
ed "Coach of the Year". It appears
that he is 111 the running for this
honor again since he is heading
ihe "team ol the year".
Randolph Macon scored first in
the third period on a 10 yard pass
play and added their final touch
down on a 4 yard pass play from
quarterback Dave Wetzel to end
bob Overton. The two-point con
version was good but the Quakers
emerged with the victory.
The Quaker's record to date is
6-2 overall and 2-1 in the confer
ence.
