THE PILOT THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 14, 1968 PAGE 3 Coach Harris Wins 100th Honored For 20 Years Service From Germany to Kansas — from mothers with addresses of sons now In Vietnam—and from Boiling Springs and towns and cities across the South came the checks. Checks is one word but trib ute would be a superior term for these gift fund contributions meant for Coach Norman Harr is, who is a 20 year tradition at Gardner-Webb College. The color television set, tape recorder, clothing, and a chair given to Coach Harris before the beginning of the G-W - East Tennessee Frosh game Satur day were expressions of love and respect for him from form er players and friends. Bob Bush, Chase high coach, expressed it well in the presen tation as he said, “This man’s record speaks for itself so we give him these gifts as a token of our regard for his untiring efforts, loyalty, friendship and faithful service. Please accept these gifts in loving gratitude.” Coach Harris, joined by his wife at the presentation, had to wait several minutes before speaking as the crowd express ed its feelings through long app- “Words cannot express howl feel . . . this group (he motion ed toward the large gathering of former athletes at his side ) is a part of my life. Some of them is in me . .. Iguess some of me is in them . . . words just don’t His players put the words into something more tangible as they went out and smashed East Tennessee’s Frosh 69 - 0 to give Coach Harris his 100th career victory and a shoulder ride to the center of the field. It was a great night for this still young coach who began his work at Gardner-Webb in 1948 as an assistant and who in 1950 took over the reins of head coach in all sports. Today, instead of shouldering the entire athletic prc^ram, he can look at a sys tem whichhas seven men coach ing intercollegiate athletics and others working in i^iysical ed ucation. The physical plant in cludes the fine facilities of Sp angler Memorial Stadium, tiie V.F. Hamrick Fieldhouse, The Host Gymnasium and enclosed swimming pool, a baseball field fenced with dugouts and an ath letic scholarship program ne aring the $25,000 mark. Greensboro Coed Crowned Our Campus Is Not Going To The Dogs - But Vice Versa By PERRY DOVER His nickname is Champ, and you might have noticed him around campus. He is classi fied, by Mr. Stacy, as belong ing to the class Mammalia and the scientific order of Car nivora. To Mr. Moseley, he is the third dog that has attended Gardner-Webb in the last 19 years. To students, he is just a dog. To the faculty, he is typical of the average Gardner -Webb male, because he has a slight tendencyto sleep in class. The dog had no comment, but sends his regards. “Champ” is registered under the name of Pal Arthur or may be Arthur Pal and was bom on Christmas Eve three years ago at Mar’s Pet Shop in Shelby. Not actually a registered pup but he was a large baby. He was soon afterward purchased by Mr. Moseley and given to his boy, Arthur. Champ has his own pad at the Moseley residence, but he prefers to stay at Gainer -Webb much of his time and get into the swing of campus life. His favorite sports are barking and chasing automo biles. Champ is usually the win ner at this game. The automo biles usually drive oft and re fuse to challange him further. Several years ago, a Ford al most got the best of him. Champ received a broken leg and stayed in the hospital for two weeks. To this day, he has not admitt ed that the automobile was vic torious. The dog assumes the Ford used trickery - when he was expecting the car to shift into high instead it geared down and Champ could not break his stride. This dog has a regular sched ule each day. He attends chem istry lectures almost every morning. Although chemistry students sometimes get confus ed in these lectures, the dog is very cool because he has heard it many times. About noon each day he has his lunch (a sand wich ) at the Student Center. Champion is factually the on ly dog that is a paid member of tiie Bulldog Club. •21 Miss Katherine (Kay) Johnson Anthony of Greensboro was crowned Homecoming Queen at Gardner - Webb College Satur day night at halftime of the GW - East Tennessee University Frosh football game.
