Quakers Whip Wildcats 26-10
BY STEVE BECK
RICHARDSON FIELD, Da
vidson, N.C. - If there was any
question of how emotionally
high Guilford was for its
game last week with Elon, it
was answered last Saturday
when the Quakers met
Davidson.
Seven days later Elon still
seemed to be on the Quaker
player's mind as Guilford had
to rally past a young Davidson
College squad by the tune of
26-10.
The Quakers looked as bad
Saturday as they did good
against Elon during the first
half. They fell behind 10-7 at
the half and were being
threatened early in the third
period before veteran line
backer AI Patterson brought
the lacklustered Quakers
around with a clutch defensive
play on a fourth and goal from
the eight.
"The Lilon game obviously
affected\ us today," stated
Quaker coach Dennis Haglan,
"much more than we
anticipated." "It was nothing
specific," he continued, "We
were just flat."
"The turning point in
momentum was the fourth and
eight," he added, "Al
Patterson deserves a lot \of
credit, he had the best
defensive game of the year."
Nobody can argue with
Haglan's last statement.
Patterson, a four year starter
from Mount Airy, assisted on
15 tackles, made seven more
on hfs own while sacking

Davidson QB Sid Osborne
twice.
Guilford has used the quick
kick with good success over
the past two years but
Saturday it got them in a bit of
trouble. Backed up on their
own four, Haglan called for
the kick on a second down but
Billy Whitley's boot went out
on the GC 27. Three plays
later Joe Duncan kicked a 52
yard field goal to give the
Wildcats the games first lead
at 3-0.
Defensive safety Mike
Williams set up the first
Guilford score when he
recovered a Wildcat fumble on
the DC 31-yard line. Four
plays later Butch Foley found
freshman Avery Cutshaw
open and the result was a 25
yard touchdown pass and the
Quakers took their first lead at
7-3.
Lightning then struck for
the Wildcats. Sid Osborne hit
Stan Brown with a 50 yard
"look what I found" pass
which put the ball on the
Quaker 6-yard line. On a
fourth and one Larry Harda
way finally scored and DC lead
10-7.
Two plays after Davidson
kicked off the second half
Whitley quicked kicked 39
yards to the DC 39. The
Wildcats then moved down
the field until a facemask
penalty put the ball first and
goal on the ten. A two yard
run and two incomplete passes
by Davidson brought up the
key fourth and goal.

The Women's Tennis Team
finally opened their 1975-76
season (after having been
rained out for the first two
scheduled matches) this past
week with a 3-6 loss to Pfeiffer
College on Monday, Sept.
29th and an 0-9 loss to a strong
Peace College team the
following Wednesday. Jenni
fer Powell suffered a foot
injury in the opening match
and will be side-lined until
after Fall break. Today Oct.
7th the lady Quakes will visit
UNC-G and the last match
before break will be tomorrow
when the Guilford team will
visit Campbell College. Our
team would like to leave the
courts on Wednesday with a
.500 record. We wish them
luck in their up-coming
matches!
The Guilfordian
As the play unfolded QB
Osborne dropped back and
looked right to pass. Suddenly
Patterson was on his back and
dropped Osborne for a ten
yard loss.
Three plays after this Foley
found Charlie Groves open for
a short pass, but the "old
man" turned it into a big gain
as he rambled for a 61 yard
score, dragging a Davidson
defender the final ten yards
into the endzone.
Guilford still was having
trouble moving the ball and
Haglan made two key personal
changes. One was Joe
Osborne replacing Foley at the
QB slot and another was Keith
Taylor for Reggie Kenan at
the tailback slot.
The changes worked as
Osborne scored twice for the
Quakers in 2:09. The first was
a four yard run and the other a
44 yard run. That produced
the 26-10 final.
The Quakers, now 4-1 on
the year, must travel to
Farmville, Virginia to meet
Hampton Sydney. Last week
H-S beat Bridewater 23-7.

Intramural Football:
A Comment
by Frank Wolff
Just recently (last week)
intramural flag football came
to another close. The winners
in my opinion were no one and
the losers were everybody. In
the time span of about one
month only one game was
played. The remaining twenty
some odd games were
forfeited.
At the beginning sign-ups
for football were fairly normal.
Just about all the different
floors posted enough signa
tures to form teams. (Hobbs
and English being exceptions)
But what happened? After the
arduous task of forming a
schedule, acquiring referees,
lining the field, etc., no one
showed for games. Rain
ruined the schedule about
half-way through so a new
schedule was in order. Mrs.
Clark of the P.E. department
again made a new schedule to
compensate for the rain and
poor attendance. She devised
a round-robin tournament in
Herb Appenzeilar, Athletics Director
Athletics and the Law
by Randy York
Herb Appenzeller, Guil
ford's Director of Athletics,
has written a new book,
"Athletics and the Law",
recently published by The
Michie Company.
This book is a detailed,
technical guide for coaches,
administrators, officials, and
commercial sportsmen who
can be endangered by
unknown legalities. Recent
years have brought masses of
law suits and new court
rulings which need to be
understood by any profession
al involved in athletics. Herb
Appenzeller presents this
knowledge in a case by case
outline of recent court actions
and what they mean.
Coach Appenzeller states,
"My new book is an attempt
which all teams involved
would compete against each
other. In essence, a new start.
Yet again, the same old tune,
forfeits and more forfeits.
What's wrong with every
one? What accounts for the
apathetic attitudes toward
intramurals? Has our organi
zation broken down and
failed? It seems to me that our
procedures and organization
have basically been the same
as in previous years. Last year
flag football was generally
considered a success. If you
think we have failed please let
us know.
Another possible explana
tion for the poor turn-out is the
attitude of the new students
here at Guilford. In a recent
conversation with a professor,
he stated that the new
students have a serious
attitude toward their studies.
This may be so, but to the
extent that a student can't
enjoy a friendly game with his
fellow hall-mates for an hour
October 7, 1975
to answer the questions
asked....and to cover all areas
of athletic law. The book also
goes into depth on civil rights
as they relate to atheltics."
This is the author's second
book. His first, "From the
Gym to the Jury," was
published in 1970 by The
Michie Company.
Coach Appenzeller received
his B.A. and M.A. from Wake
Forest University and his Ed.
D. from Duke University.
Besides being Director of
Athletics at Guilford, he is
involved in NAIA committees
including: Ethics and Con
duct, International Competi
tion, National Track and Field,
and the National Association
of College Directors of
Athletics Constitution Com
mittee.
in the afternoon? Another
possible explanation may be
due to student involvement in
other extra-curricular activi
ties during scheduled games.
Can a single cause be pointed
out, or a combination of
causes? I don't know, do you?
Intramurals ate designed
for you, the student; "you
make it what you want it to
be" (trite but true). I have
written these few paragraphs
in an attempt to save future
intramural activities from
being phased out. If you, the
student body, don't want an
activity such as flag football,
please show us (intramural
committee) by not signing up
or by stating to us directly that
there is not enough interest. It
is a waste of time, sweat, and
money to line fields, acquire
refs and the like.
In conclusion, I would like to
express my thanks to Mrs.
Joyce Clark, Mark Buckly,
Annette King, and many
others for their time and
effort.
