J > Page Four MAROON AND GOLD Tuesday, March 9, 1937 RAMBLING (Continued From Page Three) the space their recent basketball victory over Duke got in the Blue Devils’ paper. . . . Bill Terry’s son does not participate in athletics at the University of Virginia. . . . Four players who faced Elon on the diamond last year made contacts with major league teams: Ace Parker and Pete Nactinis of Duke, Yount of Wake Forest, and Broadus Culler of High Point are at the Mexico city training camp of Connie Mack’s Athletics. . . . Culler and Nactinis ap peared in a few games last year. . . . Athletes at A. S. T. C. have to stay in condition the year around. Incidentally A. S. T. C. appears on Elon’s "ST football schedule. WALKER WILL MANAGE SEVEN AWARDS GIVEN SNOW HILL THIS YEAR FOR BASKETBALL MEN Do you think that the Student Ac tivity Fee should or should not be on a separate account in the office? HILDA LEE HEATWOLE: Yes, I think that it would be much more satisfactory if we knew exactly for - what our money was going. MARTHA SUTTON: I see no par ticular reason why this fee should be included in a separate account. MILTON CHESHIRE: Beyond all doubt, the Activity Fee should be a separate account. If we are to have student publications and student ac tivities, we must have money to run them. If this fee is mixed with the other expenses, no one knows where it goe.t, and it is unfair to those who have paid all of their bills. T'here- fore, it should be separate and re quired before registration. ELIZABETH FOWLKES: If the Student Activity Fee was kept as a separate account, it could be much more easily collected, I’m sure. In do ing this, we students would also know just what fees we had paid. Yes, I do think it would be much better if the Student Activity Fee were kept on a separate record. LAWRENCE FARRELL: From the viewpoint of the student, I don’t see why it would make any difference whether it is on a separate account or not. Personally, I prefer one account rather than two. I can hardly keep one straight, much less two. “BECKY” ANNE HOLDEN: The fee should be separate so that we could know when and how much we have paid. Maybe if this fee were sep arate, we would be able to have a newspaper instead of an “ad sheet.” If this fee were separate, the office would be able to tell who had paid their fee and for what it was used. SARA VIRGINIA HOOK: With the amount of the work the business of fice must take care of, how can we expect them to keep such an account separate for each student? This is a Student Activity fee—why should it not be handled by the students in a student treasury? CLYDE RUDD: By all means, this fee should be on a separate account, and the first money paid to the office •should be put on the Student Activity Fee Account. This would assure us of a school paper and other things for which the fee is to be used. CHRISTIAN CAGERS WIN NORTH STATE TITLE (Continued From Page One) selected as all-North State conference guard at the close of the season, led the Elon club in individual scoring for the season with a total of 252 points, or an average of 10.5 points per game for the entire schedule of games. Roye was the only man in the con ference to be given unanimous selec tion in the all-conference ratings for the season. The selection was taken from a poll conducted by Houston A. Lawing, sports editor of the Greens boro Daily Record, with the coaches in the conference casting votes. Lloyd Whitley, Elon’s freshman sensation at forward this season, was runner-up in individual scoring as he located the ,.^haskets fur a total of 199 points for the season. Ike Fesniire, forward, with 152 points; and Hal Bradley, cen ter, with 147, placed next highest in scoring order.

DEAN HUSBAND PROVING POPULAR TO ELONITES (Continued From Page One) to Columbus, Miss., ^vhere she taught in Mississippi State College. Dean Husband is thoroughly cap able, and is well-liked by the students and faculty members. She is proving a great asset to Elon. STUDENTS GIVEN AID IN FLOODED AREAS (Continued From Page One) on work projects of the National Youth Administration, and $71,160 for aid to needy students under the Student Aid Program. Of the latter sum, $38,250 will go to college stu dents and $32,910 to those in high schools. The work projects allocation will provide employment for five months for between 400 and 600 out-of-school youths at an average wage of ap proximately $16 per month. Most will be assigned to rehabilitation and clean-up work in the wake of the flood waters. Approximately 1,400 high school students earning not more than $6 a month, and 700 college and graduate students with wages averaging $15 and $25 a month, respectively, will be enabled to continue their studies to the end of the term under the special allocation for student aid. This is the second emergency alloc ation by the National Youth Admin istration within -the last six months. In September, funds totaling $1,118,- 494 were released for special assis- MATMEN TAKE SECOND PLACE IN A.A.U. MEET. (Continued From Page Three) well as expected, but he did manage to throw his first opponent in a little less than three minutes and help in the point score. All season long Bill has proven that he is a wrestler of rare ability, but training himself down so much left him in a weakened condition for some of his matches. A total of ten points was garnered by the team, which is pretty remark able for a team of almost all inexperi enced men. Wrestling has gained much prominence here, and our only regret is that the season has drawn to a close. HOWARD SMITH LEAVES TO START U. N. C- STUDIES (Continued From Page One) great shock to everyone. While here, he was outstanding in basketball and baseball, being co-captain of the bas ketball team in 1935. He is a member of the Sigma Phi Beta fraternity. We wish you the best of luck in the cold, cruel, world, Smitty!! tance to young men and women in twenty Southern and Middle Western states affected by last summer’s drought. It is estimated that approx imately 40,000 youths received part- time employment and student aid assistance from this fund. We live in the past by a knowledge of its history; and in the future by hope and anticipation. Coach D. C. “Peahead” Walker, di rector of athletics at Elon college, has signed to manage the Snow Hill entry in the Coastal Plains league for the 1937 season. Walker, who last season piloted the Williamston club in the Coastal Plains loop, will return to Snow Hill to lead that team in its bow in the league as a class “D” professional circuit. Last season the loop operated as a semi- pro league. During the seasons of 1934 and 1935, Walker piloted the Snow Hill outfit and then moved over to Wil liamston last year. His Williamston club finished the regular season in first place. The local mentor was originally signed to manage Burlington in the Bi-State league this season, but when Henderson failed to raise the fran chise guarantee for a Bi-State berth, rounding out a 10-team circuit, Bur lington was also dropped to allow for a eight-tem set-up.

SURVEY REVEALS THAT DRINKING IS HIGHER (Continued From Page One) One editor wrote that drinking in his college had increased 500 per cent. “As a rule, the larger the college and the higher its academic standing, the fewer its regulations for the con sumption bf liquor and the less their observance.” pHOTO "ENGRA^Rs II ZINC AND COPPER ETCHINGS B€N PAY-HALf TONES -COLOR PLATES D€/IGn/ L^TT€RinG DAILY t1£UJ/ GR€€n/BORO BUILDinG nORTttCflROLinfl Drink...
