QCG Teachers is a small college
located in the suburbs of Blacks
boro. Three coaches compose the
entire staff of the college which
has an interscholastic athletic pro
gram consisting of football, basket
ball, baseball, golf, tennis, and
track. The members of the coach
ing staff are Hank Apple, Sam
Metchum, and Ben Sureton. Apple
handles football, golf, and track.
Metchum helps with football and
heads the baseball team. Sureton
also helps out with football plus
handling the reins of the basket
ball and tennis teams. Besides
coaching all those sports each one
of these men have to carry a some
what heavy teaching load of physi
cal education classes. Each one of
these men are capable coaches.
They'know their respective sports,
and do everything possible to put
out a respectable team for dear
old QCG Teachers. This they do
year in and year out. that is, try
to put out respectable teams.

On the schedules each year are
such powers as Leach Rorv, Easy
Cookery, Apexilica, Catalina, Euto,
and Wesley Carlton. Not only do
each of these teams have a bigger
coaching staff, but they also, some
how, are able to put out a little
money for these sports that are
supposed to build character, etc.
When QCG Teachers plays these
schools in major sports, it seems
that more than character is built,
and QCG Teachers oft times
come out second best.
It is not the fault of the coaches;
they do the best they can with
what they have. Apple is working
hard to place a good football team
on the field each Saturday, and is
nearing his goal. But, it is a hard
job, and many players that he
wants are gobbled up by other
teams in the loop. Others that he
gets evidently came to school for
the social life instead of the edu
cation, which, after all, is the real
reason for college.
Sureton, also, is trying desperate-

ly to place a good basketball team
on the court. But, Sureton is lack
ing the big men that are so es
sential in basketball today. Sure
ton has good talent, but, still, he
would so much like to have players
that are 6-5 or better. You cer
tainly can't criticize this young
man. The same thing that hap
pens to Apple happens to Sureton.
Metchum is in the same boat. His
baseball team has to be made up,
mostly, of boys that have already
played football and basketball be
fore the spring comes. Metchum
can't get the boys that he wants
for the same reason that Apple and
Sureton can't.
Only in the so-called minor
sports of golf, tennis, and track
can QCG Teachers put a winner
on the circuit. In these sports QCG
Teachers often excells and have
trophies to prove it.
You want to know the reason for
this? The reason is simply money.
At QCG Teachers, sports are run,
more or less, the way they ought to
be. Today any sport has become
a business, a big business, one in
which a boy can make plenty of
money over four years of college.
This is not the way it should be.
QCG Teachers attempts to run it
the way it ought to be. College is
where you should go to get an
education. This, simply, should be
the big reason for college. But,
other colleges do not believe it is
this way. If a boy has had a good
sports' record in high school, the
big colleges grab him up, and pay
him to play sports for four years.
If he is not too much up on the
books, the coaches manage, some
how, to make out a schedule that
does not put too much stress on
the boy's mind. Of course, there
are some boys that come for the
education first, and then want to
play a sport on the side. This is
the kind of person that QCG
Teachers wants, and sometimes
gets. Sure, QCG Teachers offers
scholarships, but they are all small.

GREENSBORO
THE GUILFORDIAN
Tribe Takes To Air To Defeat
Quakers By 34 To 16 Score
The Catawba Indians rode on
the passing arms of quarterbacks
Freddie Peacock and Ronnie Ball
to down the Guilford Quakers
34-16 last Saturday afternoon on
Hobbs Field.
The loss left the Quakers with a
2-5 record overall, and 0-4 in the
North State. The Indians are now
5-2-2 overall, and hold a 2-2-1 slate
in loop action.
TRIBE PASSING DIFFERENCE
Although the Quakers were able
to hold the Indian ground game,
TOURING THE NORTH STATE
With the 1958 season of the
North State loop drawing to a
close, and the Bears of Lenoir
Rhyne appearing to be sure of
another title, let's take a look at
which team has won the titles in
previous years.
After winning the championship
this season the Bears will then be
tied with Catawba for the most
times having won or tied for the
conference leadership. Five times
the Indians were on top, and two
other times they tied for the lead.
After 1958 the Bears will have won
their sixth title, with one tie.
Appalachian, which won the first
championship back in 1931, comes
close behind the Indians and the
Bears with five wins and a tie. On
the heels of the Mountaineers come
Elon with four titles and one tie.
Straggling far behind are Western
Carolina and East Carolina with a
win each. High Point tied for one

and were able to match them yard
for yard overland, the passing
made the difference, with three
Catawba touchdowns coming as a
result of aerials.
The Indians scored four times in
the first three periods, and led the
Quakers going into the final 15
minutes 28-0. Catawba had tallied
on passes to Larry Gildersleeve
and Jim Underwood from Peacock,
a pass from Ball to Bob Sitler, and
a 29-yard jaunt by Eddie Griffin.
Peacock's strikes to Gildersleeve
title, and Guilford has yet to win
or tie for its first championship.
In the coaching field LR's Clar
ence Stasavich will tie with Cataw
ba's Gordon Kirkland after this
season. Stas has led the Bears to
each of their titles except the tie,
while Kirkland won five titles, and
guided the Indians to a tie another
time. Several steps below Stas and
Kirkland are D. C. Walker of Elon
and E. C. Duggins of Appalachian
with three championships to their
credit.
Horace Hendrickson, while at
Elon, won one championship and
tied for one. Other coaches that
won at least one title are C. B.
Johnson of Appalachian, Charlie
Moran of Catawba, Kidd Brewer of
Appalachian, Tom Young of West
tern Carolina, and Jack Boone of
East Carolina. Flucie Stewart of
Appalachian, Pat Shores of Lenoir
Rhyne, and Ralph James of High
Point each led their team to a tie
for the title.
Only three years has there not
been a conference champ recog
nized. In 1935 there was no champ
recognized, with Elon being ruled

and Underwood covered 71 and 16
yards, while Ball connected with
Sitler from 36 yards out.
QUAKERS MAKE COMEBACK
At the start of the final quarter
the Quakers suddenly came to life,
and pushed across two fast count
ers to narrow the score to 28-16.
With scant minutes of the quarter
gone ■ Carl Opauski fell on a
bobbled punt on the Tribe 11, and
one play later Tommy Bowers
powered across for the six points.
John Meroney raced across for
the extra point to make it 28-8.
About midway of the quarter
the Quakers again stormed goal
ward and Meroney burst over from
the seven, and added the two
pointer to put Guilford within
reach of the Indians.
With time waning in the game
the Indians came back and tallied
a touchdown that put the game out
of reach for the fighting Quakers.
Peacock sneaked over from two
yards out for the final counter of
the afternoon.
MERONEY, CHESSON STAR
Meroney was the offensive
leader for the Quakers as they
punched out 164 yards on the
ground. Passing netted another 48
to give Guilford 212 yards overall
to represent one of the better
offensive shows the Quakers have
put on this season.
Leading a defense that was
nothing but rugged against a big
Catawba team were Larry Ches
son, Daryl Allen, and Opauski, plus
the entire Quaker line. Chesson, a
senior guard, perhaps played one
of his best games against the Tribe
in what was the last game for him,
and three other seniors on Hobbs
Field.
Hines, Washburn
Lead All-Campus
Football Team
Here they are the members
of the 1958 All-Campus Football
team.
Co-Captains are George Hines
and Jordan Washburn, whose out
standing play led the way to New
North's championship. Howie Wal
ton, Bill Barnette, Harold James,
Billy Garner, and Groom Fulton
round out the first string. The sec
ond team consists of George and
Steve Helton, Claude Doyle, Jim
Chambers, Vince Breitenberger,
Roy Boyles, and Tom English.
These boys a*e the best of the Guil
ford campus and would make a
formidable foe for any other North
State all-campus aggregation.
So now we turn to the sport in
progress. The boys' dorms are very
enthusiastic about the sport of
pigmy basketballs and tennis nets.
The spirit of the competition has"
developed in all of the dorms to
indicate repetition of the lively
rivalry. Over 90 games will be
played during this year's volley
ball season, which will be super
vised by the most able Jack Cren
shaw. Let's have another good
intramural program by supporting
your team.
