Letters to the ^^Coach”
Dear Coach,
Just what does this Muhammad Ali guy think he is, a legend
or something.. He knows he’s over the hill and this Spinks
fellow is just the person to shove him over. After all, youth,
strength, quickj hands and a good knockout punch woul^ be all
a person needed to show him up. ^
Signed,

Z Although their record of 0-
11 doesn’t show it, the Lady
Knights have made a lot of
improvements this season.
Sarah Wells and Chairman
Clifford have both improved
dramatically. In the last two
games the Knights have
played, Sarah has averaged
12% pts. and 10 rebounds.
Charmian has been playing
very aggressive defense,
getting steals and some
defensive rebounds — and at
5’0” that’s quite an ac
complishment!

Knights Win Two;
Conference Record Ri§
Butch Keller and Andy
Jones hit two crucial baskets
enabling the Knights to win
their fifth conference game
against top-ranked Methodist
on February 8.
The first shot came when
eller hit an eight-footer from
the baseline to tie the game at
the end of regulation time 78-
78. The second came on a
driving lay-up by , Jones with
three seconds left in the
contest. He was also fouled
and then preceeded to salt
away the game by knocking in
a free throw, making the final
score 83-80. This ended a fine
performance at the charity
stripe for the evening, as the
Knights went 15 for 16.
Leading
Leading scorers were Paul
Kowall with 24 points and
Mike Cestrone with 18, also
hitting 6 of 6 from the line.
Contributing solid efforts were
Andy Jones with 3 and Cliff
wards, Margie Scott and
Harnett Howard have all
returned from their Winter
Tern courses—these players
will help add depth to the
Knight’s bench. The Knights
have been fighting a battle
against flu and injury this
term, also. Warra Foster was
injured at N.C. Wesleyan last
Thursday night (that was the
2nd time Warra has been
injured there in two trips) and
has been out for three games,
but she will return tonight and
play sparingly for the rest of
the season.
The Knights have three
games remaining in the
season, two of which are at
home. I would like to urge you
to come and support our girls.

Handicapped Stiidenfcs-lmpl-
ications of Public Law 94-142

POW’s Still Being Held
years in a POW camp. Since
his return in 1972, he has been
actively working for a full
accounting of the 712
Americans listed as missing in
action.
“At first, I thought there
could be no more than five or
six men still behind held. But
after talking with this refugee,
I think there could be more.
This could mushroom into
something really big.
“The thing that bothers me
the most is that the govern
ment says that it questions
every refugee coming into the
country about the possibility
of POWs still behind held. This
man says he was never
asked that question.”
Schrump opposes the United
Stetes giving economic aid to
Vietnam without an ac
counting of the MIAs. He
hopes to use the refugee’s
statements to discredit
President Carter’s efforts.
A State Department official
said he knew nothing of
Schrump’s story.
“Nobody has said anything
about it to me,” said Warren
Magruder, public affairs
adviser for the East Far East.
“We are making every
effort to account for those
listed as missing in action. We
do ask every refugee coming
into this country if he knows of
any POWs or MIAs still in
Vietnam.”
Schrump has turned his
information about the rfugee
oer to Helms and Rep. Ben
jamin Gihnan, R. N.Y., both
of whom have been presding
for a full accounting of the
MIAs.
“Ray called me and told me
the story,” Clint Fuller, ad
ministrative assistant to
Helms said. “He is sending a
tape of the meeting he had
with the refugee. We’ll feed it
through a polygraph machine
to determine if the man i
telling the truth, but we don’t
have any reason to believe
otherwise.”
Schrump hopes to set up a
conference with the refugee.
Helms, Gilman and a
representative from the State
Department.
Gilman served on the House
Select Conunittee on Missing
Persons in Southeast Asisa,
organized in 1975. The 10
members of the committee
heard testimony from nearly
50 military officials, former
POWs and MIA families.
The committee decided that
there was no evidence that
Americans still are being held
in Southeast Asia. Four of the
members dissented from the
opinion, however.
“When the committee
closed up shop in December
1976, Ben felt there was a lot
more work to be done,” said
Joe Southerland, assistant to
Gilman. “He is excited about
the refugee’s story.”
Helms has introduced
several bills in the Senate
calling for a further in
vestigation of the MIAs,
Fuller said. “But so far, we
haven’t had much luck. This
story could lead to something
big.”
