that will be ao Important though
unheralded may be twenty years
from now. I know of such an oc
casion a few weekends ago.
It was when I came back to
campus.
'Vou know, driving down to Elon
for my first sure-enough visit since
1944 made me feel as though 1
■were 18 years old again. It's a
sensation many of you may ex-
iwrience again, too, but it will be
a case of whether you like or dis
like Eton.
In my case, I am grateful for
the chance Elon gave me to grow
up and mature as a person and' as
a student, and when I first came
to Elon, I needed both desperate

In my own case. I admire the
place rather hand.somely. It was
good to see that West Dorm had

Elon Stars
On All-Star
■^Cage Teams
Dewey Andrew, Elon’s big pivot
star, completed his brilliant Jun
ior season with a virtual clean
sweep of all-star honors among
the small-college teams of tiiis
area, for the big boy from Snow-
Camp has already been n.amed lo
jthc All-Conference, the All-Tourna-
nient and the All-District NAIA
te.ims as a reward for his fine
p;.3y this season.
‘.".dr.w v.'as joined on the all-
Cnnference team by Jesse Bran
son, the towering freshman for
ward, who paired with Andrew
in pacing the Christian attack and
rebound play through most of the
I cage season. Branson was the only
li-eshman named to a berth on
the All-Conference squad, a team
that was named on the basis o(
regular-season play.
It was the second straight sea
son that Elon had landed two big
scoring stars on the All-Confer
ence squad, for Jug Irvin and Ken
Smith were thus honored a year
ago. Both boys were lost between
seasons as unexpected blows, and
the honors won by Andrew and
Branson come as a special tribute
to the Elon outfit this year.
In addition to Andrew and Bran
son, other stars named to the All-
Conference squad included Jerry
Well, Tommy Burton and Jim
Wiles of Lenoir Rhyne; BiU Otte
and Charlie Lewis of East Caro-
lina; Mel Gibso» of Western Caro
lina; and Frank of Pfeiffer. Tiie
first AU-Toumey team at Lexing
ton included Andrew of Elon; Gib
son and Danny Tharpe of West
ern Carolina; Phil Garrison, of
High Point; and Bucky Pope, of
Catawba.
