PAGE TWO THE CLARION FEBRUARY 26, iggj Open House--Why Not? One of the most enjoyable and memorable occa sions of last semester were the open-houses held at homecomingf and Christmas. The homecoming open louses have long been a tradition at the college, but the Christmas at Home sponsored by Jones Hall, and the corresponding affair at Taylor were a refreshing break in the campus routine. It should be noted that there were no incidents as a result of this privilege that would tend to darken the continuance of this particular custom; on the con trary, the men and women of the college as well as ®Po^soi^s of the events were commended on their efficiency and the overwhelming success of their en deavors. Since this is the case, what could be said in oppo sition to having more open-houses, say one everv two weeks, at different dorms. It would not be necessary to continue the grand- scale production of the Christmas season, but light 1 dancing in the basement or the lobbies of the dormitories could accompany the tours ot the rooms. Such a plan to be carried out on Friday night 01 a Saturday afternoon should certainly be consid- a welcome means of entertainment for the students. Why not? AMO THIS,IS 0,U(2 « • • CROWING FOR CHICK A coach sitting on the bench is just as much a representative of the college which employs him as are the team members who must fight it out on the floor. It is with this in mind that I have noted the activity on the bench during the final home games here at Brevard. Almost without exception, coaches for our opposing teams have invariably let their tem pers get the best of them dur- ing the games. They rant and rave, stomp onto the floor, an ger the referees, and wind up with nothing whatsoever to show for their pains. Brevard’s Tor nadoes usually wind up with a Business Law In an application for a life in surance policy, Moore stated that he believed that he had not had rheumatic fever. Un known to him, he suffered rhe umatic fever as a child. Could the insurer avoid the policy up on the ground of misrepresen tation? NO — A statement of belief, although false, does not affect the insurance contract unless there is an intention to deceive the insurer. a couple of extra points gained on technicals. Even when things are going against us, and even when we are inclined to 'believe that the refs need glasses in order to see what’s really happening. Coach Chick Martin doesn’t go into spastic fits, throw towels, or cut loose with strings of pro fanity that would embarrass ev en college students. He acts the part of a gentleman. Not only does he act in a man ner befitting college personal, but his conduct is reflected in the sportsmanship of his team. Win or lose, we have a coach and a team to be proud of. The team members usually walk off with all the trophies. How about a few crows for Coach Chick Martin? I Vacated Posts (Continued from Page One) Shreves, Class President, pre sided over the meeting.

Hear him ask- “What IS your philosoiphy of life?” When we started high school years ago, the emphasis was on dumbness, whether feigned or real ihose who got good grades were called “eggheads” and were shunned for no one in the “in ^roups” would consider getting above a C on a test f in the event that they should pass the mediocre mark, they tried to hide the fact. Silly as this seems to us now opposite to the same extreme. The tad ot this generation is intellectualism. True there are intellectual people here at Brevard, but they seem to be entirely lacking in their desire to throw their knowledge and ideas at anyone who sits down at lisLrto\n cafeteria.
