SKPTEMBKU, 1955 THE C O L L K G I A T K I’liKP Thrt'e r V “Whi'n you >rot too old to play, sit back aiul toll th< younjrsters how to ilo it.” That may not always be true, but when you star thumbinK throujrh the hiirh .■tchool coachinjt ranks you are apt to find quite a few former kV athletes. These men have earned the rijjht to lose their hair early, put on a little Weight and iret ulcers: they're the "top kicks of their outfit.” A few people around here miirht recoirnize some of the names, so we’ll delve into the alumni records and see who we come up with.

That “something” is football, and most of us mi.ss those Saturday encounters when suposedly intelligent col lege men bang heads and break bones for a couple of hours. But that lack of football makes two or three fold the importance of an interest in basketball on the AC(’ cam pus. The gym doors have almost had to be locked to keep some of the eager sharpshooters out. And if you stand around and talk long enough, the conversation will drift onto ba.sketball. It’s worth suffering through football season when you can look forward to the Bulldogs’ court warfare. Jack Underwood, who, in the pa.st, has plagued AC with his basketball prowess, has enrolled at NC State. Underwood, as many of you may remember, was one o( the flashy "Crusaders” from Belmont Abbey College. When marriage interrupted his college days at the west ern North Carolina in.stitute. he decided to come east anil join Everette Ca.se’s pack of wolves. We may hear from him again, but he has done his la.st bit of damage against the Bulldogs. Women’s Athletics Under New Program The VVomrn'f Rocrpation Asso ciation , which was Iho Women’s Athletic Association until this year, has mado some chanitos in its (tro* gram Thr name, the handlxM>k, and the point system are entirely new this year. The new handlxK>k5 Include pic ture's. the constitution, the punM>se of the oriJanlzation, and an Indi vidual record for fcoring points. Tlie WHA will welcome new memlxT.s at the next meeting. i{aridlxx>ks will lx» given out then. A Weiner roast will Ik* giv lyball, which is the hrst intramural s|x>rt on the schedule, will start > OcUiber 10. \ The gymnasium will be opi*n (or (practice each night from 6 00 un til 7 00. Any Individual or any team . may get toK« ther for a practice session at this time. * The WHA wishes you a success ful year of fun and relaxation through the si>orts of its Intramural program. An intramural projrram should play an important part in the colle^rt* life of both men and women here at AC. This year's intramural proj^ram is biKK^i* than ever, and it is hoped that more people than ever will partici pate. Whether your team be a dorm team, a fraternity team, a sorority team, or a town team, you should take part. Gymnasium To Be Remodeled The gymnasium is undergoing a complete remodeling. The whole inside has been torn out and a new arrangement is be ing set up. The new arrangement will include visiting team quarters with separate shower area, a room ior basketball officials with sepa rate shower area, an equipment room for intramural and intercol legiate athletics, a training room, and a new setup for k>cker baskets that will serve both girb and boy? inphysical education classes The of flees will be set up in the basement for the instructors in physical edi> cation. Mr Cloyd. fyhysical c*ducation director, has bi*en working aU summer making the change to meet the needs in the physical edu cation and athletic program.s. Mr. j Cloyd said. “The new setup will be more convenient and much nicer , than wiiat we had. I think it will , po*?sibly fill our needs at the pre- jsent time.” The basement is being water proofed. The gymnasium was iwt i waterproofed when it was built some twenty years ago. In order ! to stop water from running In. a trench has to be dug around the ^ outside, two feet wide and eight ' feet deep. The outside wall was plastered and then a heavy coat' : ing of tar followed the plastering. ilie Improvement*^ on the gym are being done at a cost of $10,000 The plumbing is being done by High's Plumbing Co.
