Page 4 THE CHARLOTTE COLLEGIAN Thurcday, March 24, 1960 Oipls In Retrospect By PAUL A. SHINN When the facts are known, it is quite amazing that the Charlotte College basketball team, The Owls, was even able to finish the season. Coach Eugene Todd, in his first year at CC, had to contend with inadequate practice sessions, and not having a full team on the floor at times. When the final bell rang, only two boys, captain Sam Dunlap and Doug Galvin, had gone all the way with the team. In an encounter with Campbell College, the Owls finished the game with only four men on the court, but even under this handicap, the Owls still lost the game by only eight baskets a pretty good showing, both offensively and de fensively. With a little help in the leason, the record could have been im proved upon considerably. In the first game of the campaign against Presbyterian Junior Col lege, the Owls had a fourth quarter lead until two boys fouled out. leaving the team undermanned. Later in the season, the Owls played a doubleheader with Fred erick, which won the tournament championship. With only four hours sleep the night before, and six boys on the team, CC held on to a seven point lead at halftime in the first game of the twin-bUl, but was finally run down and beaten by 13 points. Beginning with the second half of season’s play grants-in-aid were given to boys in order to bolster the team. One of the player* receiving a grant-in-aid, S’ll” Dub Plyer, aver aged 26 point* a game during the second half of play. Captain Dunlap, who i* only 5’9*’i is considered to be the playmaker* of the team. Doug Galvin, at 6^3’^ is the cent er of the squad. He i* a service* man, is said by Coach Todd to be a good rebounder and rough under the boards. Another high scorer for CC was Phil Swaringen. The 6*1” for ward had a 16 point average dur*) ing the season. Tallest man on the team is John Arrowood, and the other guard along with Dunlap is Mickey Beheler. These two are freshmen, as are the other starters on the! team. LIVE BETTER... Electrically DUKE EOWER COMPANY Charlotte College and Edwards Military Institute finished the season with records of 2-14. This necessitated a playoff to decide which team would go to the tour ney. ' After agreeing to play at EMI, the team left Charlotte without eating and arrived at Salemburg at 9:30 that night. Playing away from home, without any food Or rest, the Owls fell to EMI by an 83-75 count. Dub Plyler fired in 34 points for the loser* in a game which wa» won on the foul line. EMI hit 26-30 free throws to CC’s 13-20. As for next year, Coach Todd says, “If we know about who we play and who we’ll have playing, we can get off to a good begin ning.” “After the second quarter began, we played better basketball and finished strong.. This indicates, that we will do better next year,” stated Coach Todd. As if to warn other teams in the conference,Coach Todd concluded, “We won’t win the championship, but maybe we’ll keep somebody else from winning it.” Tennis Plans Postoned By PAUL A. SHINN Plans for a 1960 tennis team at Charlotte College have been post poned until next falL Considerations for the team were begun around Christmas, but com plications arose which forced post ponement of the project. The biggest problem in getting a team started was the cost in volved. Transportation and equip ment would comprise most of the cost. If a visiting team had to spend the night it would be at the expense of the College. The games would have to bo played on city courts, and there fore no admission could be charg ed. To get money for the team, a Student Council-appointed com mittee would make recommen dations, after which, the students, by voting would make the final decision. Another problem was getting rireanized. It was found that it would take four or five months to get a team together, and matches scheduled. About seven men voiced inter est in the team. More interest will have to be generated before th^ team will become a reality. Competition for the Owls would be provided by schools in this area. Such teams as Davidson, Belmont Abbey, and Presbyterian would be matched against the Charlotte College team. If the team materializes, there is jl chance that one of the local businessmen who has played tennis will coach the team. The main thing now is to get enough men together who will be here next year and who are interested in playing tennis. Selective Service Exam .Applications for the April 28 1960, administration of the College Qualification Test are now avail able at Selective Service System local boards throughout the coun try. Eligible students who intend to take this test should apply at once to the nearest Selective Service local board for an application and a bulletin of information. Following instructions in the bulletin, the student should fill out his application and mail it im mediately in the envelope provided to SELECTIVE SERVICE EX AMINING SECTION, Educational Testing Service, P. O. Box 580, Princeton, New Jersey. Applica tions for the April 28 test must be postmarked no later than midnight, April 7, 1960. Accordi;ig to Educational Test- irijg Service, which prepares and administers the College Qualifica tion Test for the Selective Service System, it will be greatly to the student’s advantage to file his application at once. The results will be reported to the student’s Selective Service local board of jurisdiction for use in considering his deferment as a student. If enough interest is built up, the Student Council could take\ action on the plan next fall, giving plenty of time for working out details of scheduling and practic ing. Men who are interested in or ganizing a team next year are asked to see Ed Siber or John Yandle for information concern ing the details in getting a team started.
