The aver age in the final column is the average number of hits allowed for each full nine innings pitched. PITCHER H BB SO Ave. Hamrick 90 73 143 5,8 Hall 99 58 108 6.1 Conger 112 93 121 6.8 Swicegood 118 64 109 6.8 It will be seen from the tabu lation that Hamrick leads in the number ' of strikeouts, having averaged better than one strike out per inning. Hall has allowed the least walks in the three years, but Conger was able last year to overcome the wildness that plagued him the first two seasons, and he allowed only 17 bases on balls in 63 1-3 innings. Hall also allowed only 17 walks last year in 46 innings. Such has been the record of the Elon “Big Four,” perhaps the finest pitching staff in the history of college baseball in North Carolina. The excellence of this staff was responsibe for the scheduling difficulty ex perienced by Coach Mathis this season, and Elon fans hope that its members may wind up their careers this spring in the same brilliant fashion set during pre vious seasons. I The librarians this week cail the 1 attention of the students to one lof the most interesting and most I useable books on the libraij 'shelves, devoting the entire col umn to the one volume. J Although the book is not a very I recent one, it is one that will nev er go out of date. It is 'Great Novelists and Their Novels," writ ten by William Somerset Maug- ham, complete with attractive pen- and-ink sketches of the novelists done by Robert W. Arnold, well known young artist of Philadel phia. Maugham, who has quite a rep utation himself as a novelist, sel ects what he considers the ten greatest novels of the world and tells in very interesting style why he thinks these are the world's greatest. In his vigorous and discerning style he also describes the per sonalities of the ten outstanding novelists. He also gives his rea son for choosing the ten novels, pointing out the perfections and the imperfections as he explains why the stories have remained memorable throughout the years. He reviews each author's purpose, explores each novel’s background, and analyzes the methods used The reader must admit that few persons, if any, are better qual- |ified to write such a book. Maus- ham has made the writing novels I his business and has been one o Ithe most prolific and most famous I of modern fiction writers. His I works have included novels, plays, biographies and short stories Tliis book, however, is one of his fin est works, and it brings out his own philosophy of novel writing. The readers for whom the book was written will find it useful, informative, and easily intelligi ble. Certainly, it should be a val uable source of information for the student of literature and more than valuable to the would-be wri ter. TOURNEY FINALS The Elon Stars, composed of Elon students from the varsity and intramural cage squads, recently battled their way to the finals of ‘Ihe Class "A" division of the High |P>oint Gold Medal Tournament. I losing to Kannapolis in the final ' same by an 85-81 score. Ed Jura- itic had 26 and Dave Maddox 25 to lead the Elon scoring in the final game.
