BE A BULLDOG BOOSTER
W. A. A.
By SELMA ARNER
New Officers Elected
On May 3, the entire Women’s Athletic Association met to elect
iU new officers. The new officers are as follows:
President; Jessie Wilson Uaniel,
who succeeds Selma Amer, Wilson.
Vice-president: Jacqueline Daniel,
Wilson, who succeeds Evel>'n Willis,
Black Creek.
Secretary: Irma Lee Spencer,
Kinston, who succeeds Agnes Futrell,
Wilson.
Treasurer: Rachel Glover, Wilson,
who succeeds Jessie Daniel, Wilson.
For class sports leaders, the old and
new presidents with the help of the physical education director, have
lelected the following girls:
Junior-Senior leader: Selma Arner, Wilson, who succeeds Doro
thy Rouse, Kinston.
So*phomore leader: Ola Mae Kelly, Pfafftown, who succeeds Mary
Frances Bishop, Wilson,
Tlie i-'reshman Class leaders will be selected at the beginning of
next year.
Juniors-Seniors Trounce A. B. Froah in Opener
In a very one-sided game, the tVosh went down under the terrif
ic hitting of the upperclassmen. Mary Ella Clark, Senior pitcher,
held the Frosh to four runs. The viotors chalked up a total of twenty-
three runs. Very few people were struck out in the game, but a dosen
or more home runs were made by the Seniors.
f..
Juniors-Seniors Triumph Again
Trailing behind by seven runs, the Juniors and Seniors went on a
hitting spree during the last inning to win again by a score of 22 to 18.
This time the Sophs were the losers. The game was a thriller from
beginning to end, and a peculiar one at that; for until the last inning
the upper<la8smen had a regular team, but were losing. However,
when the last inning came around, five of its players—some tired,
others sore—left the ball game. And then, with only five players,
pfv^ceeded to win the game.
Commercials Wallop Juniors-Seniurs
After sailing along with two victories, the Juniors-Scniors met the
Commerciiai team, and were defeated with a 22 to 18 score. It was a
battle of pitchers—Loree Strickland of the Commercials and “Home
Run” Mary Ella Clark of the Juniors-Seniors.
A. B. Froah Top Commercials
In a hotly contested game, the A. B. Prosh defeated the Commer
cials 17 to 16. Although the Commercials claim that the victory is
theirs the score shows 17 on the Frosh’s side.
Commercials Forfeit to Sophs
By forfeiting to the Sophs the Commercials lost all chances of
winning the softball championship.
Juniors-SeniorH Tie A. B. Frosh for Softball Championship
The softball series ended with the Junior-Senior team having two
wins and one loss to their credit; and the A. B. Frosh with two winA
and one loss by default. So these two teams will have to play again to
decide the championship.
Croquet Tournament Beginn
The final week of athletics has begun with the croquet touri»-
nient. A large number of girls have been paired off, and the touma-
Dient is now in the preliminary stage. As soon as this is over, numei^
*1* will be awarded.
Important Amendment in Constitution
Through unanimous decision, the W. A. A. has voted to award 25
points to each girl participating in May Day Dances. It it hoped that
this will encourage more girls to participate in the annual May Day
exercises, and also to serve as a small reward for their efforts.
And thus ends another year of Athletics for women. In my esti-
®ation, the most successful one yet. As I say “Au Revoir*\ I want to
^^h the best of luck to next year’s officers and to the new and old
members of the Women’s Athletic Association.

JAMES “HED” ROGERS
The Bulldog teams for the year
of 39-40 will see two familiar
faces missing from the lineup.
We are lucky in the fact that on
ly two of our athletes are gradu
ating, but both of them, stars in
their own field, will b« greatly
missed. James ^Hed) Rogers, a
star basketballer for the last four
years, and Irving Lynch, one of
the college’s baseball greats, will
receive their diplomas at the an
nual commencement May 2^th.
‘ Red”, as we all know him, ma
triculated in the fail of 11^35. He
came from Rose Hill, N. C.. where
he bad starred in basketball and
baseball for four years. His first
year in college he earned a regu
lar guard spot on the Bulldog
basketball team, and played sen
sationally the whole season, gain,
ing a spot.on the All-Conference
team. His second year was a repe
tition of the first as far as pUy
was concerned, but this year he
failed to place on the All-Confer
ence. For his junior year the team
honored him by electing him cap
tain. During this year his play
was again sensational, until inju
ries beset him in the form of a
broken ankle about half way
through the schedule. Red missed
most of the rest of the season
and the team seemed to lack that
certain punch without him in the
lineup. His senior year was prac
tically a repetition of the year
before. Red returned to the line
up to start the season but again
the injury jinx overtook him and
kept him on the bench much of
the time. Because of his irregu-
IRVING LYNCH
kr piayUig hia. game was not of
the calibre of fornier years but
Hed wound up his coUege cai'eer
with a stellar performance against
ECTC. Red confined his athletic
career to basketball while in col
lege, although for three years in a
row he copped the intramural
track meet which is held every
spring. This year he did not com
pete in the annual event because
of the old ankle injury.
Irving Lynch came here to the
college from Wendell, N. C., in
the fall of 1935. In high school
he had starred in football and
baseball. When candidates report
ed for baseball in the spring, Ir
ving reported as a pitcher. On
account of hia powerful hitting,
however, he was transferred to
first base, where he played about
half of the games. In his sopho
more year he transferred to first
base to stay, and turned in some
stellar performaiues both afield
and at the bat. His junior year
was spent in the outfield and at
first base. This year hia batting
average fell off a few pointa. but
again his power hitting kept the
Bulldogs in a lot of games. The
team selected him as captain for
his senior yeacj^d during this
year he played tneoest ball of his
college career. At the plate he
was always a threat to opposing
pitchers and in the field he turn
ed in some spectacular catchcs.
Both of the.<ie graduating ath
letes have written their names in
the sports annals of Atlantic
Christian and they will be missed
in the coming seasons.

baseball team scored against the
Pirates. Next year the bucket

wooden bucket. One side is paint
ed in the colors of the Pirates,
purple and gold, and the other ia
painted in the colors of the Bull
dogs ,blue and white. On the
rate side there is painted a pic
ture of a Pirate and the Bulldog

HERE’S AN INTERESTING CIGARETTE
COMPARISON...See how it’s made
by college student Bob Hendrickson
Smokers all over the country are
learning what Robert S. Hend
rickson, Jr. (right) is showing a
group of classmates. It’s a suiking
way to compare cigarettes by simply
‘Watching them burn! Bob is testing
the leading brands to find the one
that burns slowest! Which brand
won.’ C-A-M-E-L...by a wide mar
gin! The reason.’ Costlier tobaccos,
expertly blended in a cigarette that
burns slowly, completely — smokes
cooler, of course!
Recently, a group of scientists ran
this interesting laboratory test on a
•^4
bigger scale. 16 of the largest-selling
cigarette brands were rated impar
tially. CAMEIJBVRSEDSWWER
THAN ASY OTHER BRAND
TESTED-25% SLOWER THAN
THE AVERAGE TIME FOR THE
OTHER BRANDS. (Camels u>ere
remarkably consistent.) IN THE
SAME TEST, CAMELS HELD
THEIR ASH FAR LONGER THAN
THE AVERAGE TIME FOR ALL
THE OTHER BRANDS.
Camel it the cigarette of costlier
tobacco*... cool, mtllow, appealing
in taste, so uniformly delightful!

WHEN yo«’ve enjoyed the thrill of a mellow, ripe-
tasting Camel, you’ll know that NOTHING can
take the place of costlier tobaccos! What a pleasure it is to
get set with a cigarette that is really mild — a matchless
blend, made to give you all the enjoyment in smoking.
Camels have more tobacco by weight than the average
of the If other brands tested. Besides, Camels burn slower
than any of those other brands. And by burning 2)% slower
than the average of the li other of the largest-selling brands,
Camels give you the equivalent of 5 extra smokes per pack!
Camels give you even more for your money when you
count in Camel’s finer, more expensive tobaccos. Buy
shrewdly! Buy Camels...America’s first choice for a lux
ury smoke every smoker can afford!
