Camp Co-Editor The championship game of the first an nual College Bowl competition was held Thursday, April 12 at 9:30 am in the DCC lounge. The student team, who had won the March 26th competition giving them the right to take on the faculty, jumped to an early lead. By half-time the faculty seemed headed for defeat (and early pensions??). The stu dents led 125-70 as the faculty blamed the deficit on old reflexes. After the half-time break and advice (pressure?) from colleagues, the faculty made a quick recovery and never looked back. At the final buzzer, the faculty stood victorious, 240-170. Dr. Rudee Boan, emcee of the event, remarked, "It was an impressive perfor mance—student and faculty." Winning captain Dr. Barry Hambright said, "Age, age. You learn a lot of things from being older." Student captain Kathy Henson con cluded the day with the declaration, "We’ll be back next year." Congratulations to both teams: Faculty- -Drs. Hambright, Glen Bottoms, Joyce Brown, and Tom Jones. Students—Hen son, Karen Greene, Paul Kelley, and Barry Martin.

He has been the coach at Indian River Junior College, South Georgia Col lege, Brewton-Parker College, and New berry College in addition to his stint here at GWC. "It is without a doubt the nicest honor a former athlete could receive," said Miller. 'To be selected into your alma mater’s Hall of Fame and particularly to be inducted with the seventeen others is really an honor. It is even more gratifying since I will be inducted along with coach Clements, my college coach, who [sic] I nominated." Students to Help in Summer Missions By Dawn E.
