Sports Scene .. By DAVID GUTHRIE After successful seasons in both football and basketball Chowan can also look forward to a prosperous season in baseball. The 1^5 edition of the Braves promises to be a young and exciting team. Coach Hawkins’ squad returns only two starters from last year’s team but there are many promising freshmen to sup- plenent the supply of returnees. Back from last year’s team are right fielder Ben Howe and centerfielder Ray Davis. Other returning sophomores who saw playing time last year are out- Gelders Ken Anderson and Rob Sullivan and third baseman Paul Morean. Freshmen, though will play the dominant role on this years team. Infielders Buddy Newsome and Tony Bolton have shown a lot of ability at their respective positions while Mike Bass and Students Speak Out By Hector J. Cuellar Question: “How do you feel about the towns people in regards to cashing checks? Marianne Wood: “Each em ployer is out for himself, but for students it’s a hassel.” Larry Smoot figure to battle for the starting position at catcher. It is the strength of a team’s pitching staff though that dic tates whether a team wins or loses and it is here that the fresh men figure to play the most vital role. Bobby Bryan, Bob Meyer, Brian Phleger, Jack Jones, James Humphries and Wade Walker give the Braves sufficient depth on the pitching staff. Coach Hawkins feels that this year’s staff will be considerably stronger than the 1974 staff. The Braves do have their work cut out for them if they figure to be conference contenders this season. Louisburg College, a four year school, returns eighteen players from their 1974 team. This past summer the Louisburg squad won Uie North Carolina Summer League. The League contains such teams as the University of North Carolina, East Carolina, Campbell, and the University of North Carolina at Wilmington. Coach Hawkins feels that overall the conference is ex tremely strong with the only clear-cut favorite being Louisburg.

Deadline for Next Issu* ol SMOKE SIGNALS March 25,1*75 Lisa Jorgensen;“I don’t think its fair because the bookstore never has enough money.” Bob Meyer; “A few bad checks from individuals ruin it for everybody else.” Steve Zarra:“When I do cash a check I don’t have any trouble, because I’m one of the smart ones and have an account here in town. So there! ” Chowan Braves Defeat CCA Chowan College defeated College of the Albemarle 113-100 in Elizabeth City Monday night but did not wrap up fourth place in the Cavalier-Tarheel Con ference as expected, according to Coach Bill McCraw, McCraw has learned from league headquarters that Louisburg, earlier considered virtually eliminated from con tention for the fourth spot with a 3-6 conference mark, has defeated Sandhills and Mt. Olive, the second place club, and needs only a victory in its final game at home Thursday against COA to tie Chowan at 6-6. With the COA win, the Braves had expected to clinch fourth place and the home court ad vantage for the opening round of the conference tournament, to be played Wednesday, Feb. 26 at 7:30 p.m. If Louisburg beats COA as expected, Chowan will meet Louisburg with the home court to be decided by a coin flip. A Louisburg loss would place the Hurricanes in a tie with Sandhills at 5-7 with a flip to decide fifth place and Chowan’s opponent for the opening game, which would be played on the Braves’ court. Against COA, forwards Thomas Gentry with 26 points and James Goffigan with 24 paced the Braves. COA led briefly, 10-8, before Chowan took command. Chowan led at the half, 55-42, and midway through the second half by 21 points before COA closed the gap to 11 with a minute left. McCraw said a major factor beind the victory was the Braves’ control of the boards behind Gentry, Goffigan and guard Lonnie Payton, who added 19 points. Reserve guard John Roseboro turned in a fine performance with 14 points Libby Kanipe:“It’s pretty bad when some banks won’t even cash checks.” Dale Revelle:“It’s fair. They have to look after their own in terest to make sure they don’t pick up any bad checks.” Green Hall Student Center Now Open Need a place to relax and unwind?
