BALTIMORE, MARY- a great abundance this

This is not really a “secret” but this is reaiiy the
“key to a successful life”. You might say this is a bunch
of junk, but the key to a successful life is “education”.
If you don’t believe me, let me spell it out to you and
then maybe you will realize justhow important vour
education is.
To'be professional in any field it takes a learning
process. You have to go through a learning process and
you can’t just walk the streets and wait for handouts.
You must go to school and work your way up. Success is
measured by the amount of education; the more
education you have, the higher goals you will be able to
reach.
If you still don’t believe the importance of education
just take a look at all the dropouts who are walking the
streets, jobless. Look at those people who didn’t finish
their education and are working everyday in factories,
who have to get up and go to work at 6:00 a.m. Then
look at those who did get a good education and are
making more money in one year than a factory worker
makes in two years. Think of all those people who are
up in the world and are critisized by those who are not
as high up on the “totem pole”. They criticize because
they didn’t make it that far, but they had the chance
and didn’t take it.
There is a pattern that education leads to. The
patterns goes as followsS; education leads to
knowledge; knowledge leads to success; success leads
to social ranking; and social ranking leads to the most
important thing, money.
As you all know money is the key to almost
everything. Don’t let anyone fool you, education is the
direct key to money and as we all know money is the key
to everything.
So, if you are in school, stay there; and if you didn’t
finish, it’s not too late to go back and get what you
need. Don’t let anyone or anything stand in the way of
your education, if you do there is no one to blame but
yourself. Don’t deny yourself of an education because
“you got a long life to live and a hell of a lot to give”, so
don’t make it any harder on yourself.

TO KEEP IT FROM SLIPPING
OUT OF THE NOLL
LAND - Several of the
Mid-Eastern Athletic Con
ference (MEAC) Tourna
ment individual and team
records may be eclipsed
during the fourth annual
MEAC Basketball Tourna
ment which will be held
February 27, 28 and March
1 at the Baltimore Civic
Center.
Last year 26 of the
individual and team records
were broken or tied during
the three-day extravagan
za. All of the individual
single game records were
broken including five on the
first day of the 1973
tourney.
Last year Archilles Car
roll of Howard wrote his
name in the MEAC
Tournament record book
when he scored 36 points
against Delaware State in
the opening round to lead
How'ard to a 91-98 overtime
victory. Carroll broke the
old mark of 34 points held
by teammate Robert Lewis
in 1972.
Freshman Harry Nickens
of. South Carolina State,
swingman James Sparrow
of A&T and Robert Little of
North Carolina Central
stand a good chance of
erasing this mark. Nickens
scored 34 points this season
while Sparrow dropped in
36 points against Howard
recently and Robert Little
has consistently scored in
the high 20-point bracket.
Seven-foot All-American
Marvin Webster of Morgan
State can also be listed as a
possible successor to this
record. Even though Web
ster has not scored points in
season the MEAC Player of
the Year still has the
potential to score more than
36 points on any given
night.
In setting his 36-point
tournament record last
year, Carroll converted 15
field goals for a new
field-goal tourney record.
Sparrow and Nickens both
have scored 15 or more
field goals this season.
South Carolina State's
Alex Barron hit 14 of 17
free throw attempts in S.C.
State’s 81-71 defeat at the
hands of Morgan last year
in the first round of the
tournament. Barron set
tournament records for free
throws made and free
throws attempted. The
junior sharp-shooter has
been the busiest free throw
shooter in the league this
season going to the line 154
times and converting 110 of
the charity tosses and may
rewrite his name in the
