MARCH, 1961 THE COMPASS PAGE THREE Panthers Slip By Pirates The Virginia Union University Panthers came from behind in the final ten seconds at the game against the State Teachers College Pirates to win 76-75. The Pirates initiated the scoring attack and led up until the final seconds of the game. The first half ended with the Pirates holding a 44-32 edge. Bruce Spraggins, the CIAA scoring leader, and “jumping” Jackie Jackson, CIAA rebound leader, led the deter mined Panthers as they came back in the second half. Jackie Jackson amused the fans with his “dump” shot. The Virginia team displayed great poise and teamwork in such closely fought contest. Henry Hager was the Pirates’ highr est scorer with 25 points, followed by Marvin Trotman with 15, and Mayfield who had 12. Snipes ac counted for 11 markers. Although Jackie Jackson leads the CIAA in rebounds, the combined efforts of freshman sensation Willie Francis, Fletcher Snipes and Henry Hager gave the Pirates a respectable portion of the rebounds. The Pirate fans left the game sad because their team lost a heartbreak ing decision, but they were happy also because of the good display of basket ball they had witnessed. Pirates Baseball Campaign Underway Baseball spring training for the Pirates is due to start in two weeks, that is, if the weather is still hold ing up well. Coach Tom Caldwell is looking forward to the CIAA Championship this year because of the increase freshmen players and the loss of only three players from last year’s squad. The pitching staff for the Pirates is very strong, with Billy Kitchen and Jasper Evans, right handers; while James Henry and Brady John son are our southpaws. Johnson, a letterman from 1958 just returned from a tour of duty with the United States Army. The infield will be short of one man, Calvin Williams, who played the second base position. Phairlever Pearson could be his successor. Or it could be some able bodied fresh man. The outfield has two of its three field positions covered by last year’ starters, but there is a question as t( whom shall be the third man. Coach Caldwell seemed very pleased with the material that he has, especially his pitching staff. He said, “With little hard work we can easily walk off with the championship.” Dr. Wang in Social Studies The college family extends to Dr. Chi Kao Wang, Mrs. M. A. Frank lin, Mrs. C. P.

The Pirates started off with a small lead and increased it to 47-28 at the midmark. Francis, Hager, H., and Snipes cleared the boards for the Pirates during the first half to put the Pirates in a safe position. Ths second half scoring space was led with Brady Johnson scoring 21 points. To lead the Pirates second was Henry Hager with 19. The high scorers for St. Paul’s were T. Howell with 24 and Moore with 15 points. Pirates Clip Falcons Our famed home Pirates clipped the Falcons of St. Augustine in a CIAA basketball game for their second win over the Falcons this year. The score was 101-80. The first half was very thrilling vi'ith the Pirates out front with a close margin of 47-43. The lead, however, shifted about four times during the first half. The second half was a turning point for the offense of the Falcons, for the Pirates used a switching man-to- man defense, and after about four minutes of the second half they had pulled away by a 12 point margin. Marvin Trotman led the Pirates scor ing streak with 37 points, while Henry Hager came in second with 21. The Falcons’ high scorers were Linsey with 23 and Walker with 15. Both played a very good defensive game, but were no match for the fleet Pirates. U Unscramble 1. Who said? “Of those to whom is given, much is required.” NKEYBDN 2.

Meeting the Audio-Visual Communication Need Through TV The audio visual media of com munication are mainly motion pic- ;s, radio and television. The new- of these devices is the television which for the last ten years has be come the most demanding in audio visual communication. This is due the fact that it can reach the masses with very little effort. The ability of television to reach out to millions of people has caused educators to think seriously of its educational values. In doing so he has found unlimited values in this area. Television can offer a picture supplement similar to that of motion pictures, slides and filmstrips. It can furnish the excitement of live parti cipation, increase the initial learning and the scope and permanency of learning in an individual. With these and many more values in mind the educator has decided that television is one of the answers to teaching the masses. Educators are, therefore, setting up educational television stations in major colleges and universities. This is where thev should be. A good ex- cational television, WUNC, Channel 4, in Chapel Hill, which is devoted to bringing television programs of learning. This television center, sup ported by the University of North Carolina, has proved to be very suc cessful. One very recent experiment conducted by a major college was the teaching of the illiterate through edu cational television. The students at this college had found that statistics show that everyone looks at television, even the illiterate. By putting on a campaign for audio visual instruction through television they were con vinced of its unique usefulness. They djsigned programs to teach the illi terate. They taught those with little television ability. They reached into every corner, valley, alley, and out- of-the-way place to teach people how to read and write through television. Educational television and other media of communication are hasten ing the time for the peoples of the world to learn their daily work. For this reason, educational television will ihe many new con cepts of learnmg orth Carolma Alpha Phi Omega Fraternity Presents Flag Candidates for membership in Alpha Phi Omega Fraternity, an organization of former Boy Scouts and Veterans, raise a new flag after a ceremony in the College Assembly.
