He attended the University during 1939 and 1940. In 1940 he left S4'hool and worked for two years in his home town. At Fort Mc- I’herson. (Jeorgia. he enterwl the Army In 1943. Under the Uadet Training Division of the Army Air Corp he took a brief course at Davidson College.

At the State Student legislature, held in Ualeigh last year. he represented Religious Emphasis Week Observed New Chapel And Grading^ JUNIORS’STUNT System To Go Into Effect NIGHT PLANNED FOR APRIL 15TH Two new changes of the College system were pre sented to the stuiU-nts on Friday. .March 8th. One wa.4 pertaining to the new grading system which is going into effect this semester. The .student.s were aware of this change and the parents will receive notice of this change when quarterly reports go out. The second change came as a blow to some .students, mainly those students who never go to chapel. It was a new absence regulation for chapel. This new system, which is a I brain child of the faculty, gives each student six "cuts" (or a se-1 mester. This does not count, how ever, the excusable abseuces of the ; students. That is to say if the| sludt'nt is away on school business i of any kind, is absent due to ill ness. or any of the other necessity | callings, he may be excused from | such “cuts" by obtaining au ex cuse from the Dean of Instruction or the Nurse. If a student has more than six un>*x< usable absen<es front chapel, he Is debarr<‘d from registering at Atlantic Christian College for (he .-runiiner seHMion and (or the fall term of ’47. These unexcuse- able ' cuts ' will also be recorded on th»- student's permanent rec ords in the office. It was stated that the same would be placed on the trans- scriplH of those students transfer- ing to other schools. As a result of the afore ment ioned ruleH throngs of students swarm into Chapel three limes a week. Students are seen rushing to chapel early so as to get neats on their assigned row. As for the new grading system It is something entirely different from our present system. It is hoptd by all the students that Atlantic I parents will realize this Chrlmian C'olleKf.

D’s follow C and it is hoped that the K’s will be as few in number as the A’s. It is for the students’ benefit that this new grading system is going into effect.

In 1936 our Coopera tive Association was formed, whereby campus government was placed in the hands of a combined student-faculty group. Of the el^^v- en that make up the Hoard, seven are students, and four are faculty members, two of whom are elected by the students. The students, all elected, are the president of the Cooperative Assocoatlon; vice- president; secretary; treasurer; president of the Woman's domi- tory Council; Men's Kepresen- talivc; and Town Students’ rep- rensentatlve. The Hoard, then, I>emocratically represtnts every student and Faculty-member on the campus. We are told that these four faculty members (note that they are In the minority) have to talk fast to hold their own with seven independently thinking students. These eleven people are like the old Pony Express: Come rain or shine, they tarry out their duties. Kvery Monday night for eleven years has seen that light shining in a class room where campus problems are faced. The fact that the best Radio programs are on Monday night doesn’t deter them. The fact that romance may beck on or test for the next day threat en means nothing to these souls. On Monday Night they .MKKT.
