Biafra Surrenders
Nigerian leader Major General Yakubu Gowon accepted
the capitulation of rebel Biafrans after thirty months of
war. A massive international effort is underway to care
for the Ibo survivors. Perhaps two million lives, almost a
whole generation of Ibo tribe children, were wiped out, and
one of black Africa’s most promising nations was shattered
in the civil war.

Salemites Risk Lives
Student Teachers Practice
In Winston-Salem Schoo
During the months of November
and December, twenty-nine student
teachers from Salem College braved
the halls of two elementary schools,
two junior high schools, and one
senior high school. Somehow they
managed to endure the six weeks
of the real and the unreal to re
turn to Salem with stories of their
most unforgettable episodes.
The second, fourth, and sixth
grade teachers at Brunson will ever
remember with mixed emotions the
long hours spent in practicing for
the Christmas P. T. A. show. Just
ask the most expert snowflakes
you’ll ever meet, Ellen Ford and
Jane Loftin. How can Emily Har
mon ever forget the white mice she
was expected to handle without
flinching?
And there was the time that a
wreck occurred in front of Brunson,
and Nancy Wetzell suddenly real
ized that most of her class were no
longer seated, but hanging out the
windows.
And, of course, the boy in Louise
Sherrill’s class who decided that
leaving the room by the door was

While talking to my roommate
about sports, I discovered that per
haps many students don’t know
much about pro basketball. Pro
basketball, unlike pro football, is
not as greatly publicized and seem
ingly doesn’t run as long as pro
football.
Rro basketball runs from Novem
ber to March, which is just as long
as pro football, which runs from
September to January. The main
reason that pro basketball does not

leave out all the figures except for
the front one. The same is true of
the one next to it, and of every
work except for the drawing of the
angularly black and white forms
and the one next to the explanatory
sign. Grant it, the one next to the
sign does not designate where the
figures are, but the position of the
figures and the relationship running
through them cancels out a need
for that.
On the whole, the drawings do
need work to give them solidity,
texture, and unity. But, they also
show great promise for a beginning
drawing class. I hope that they
keep up the good work and open
their eyes some. You other Salem
students—open your eyes, too. Run
over to the F. A. C. and gaze at
these drawings of the beginning
drawing composition class!

receive as much attention as foot
ball is due to the fact that the sea
sons overlap and since football be
gins first, it monopolizes the TV
first.
Pro basketball is a much faster
game than high school or college
basketball. This is probably due to
the 24 second clock which is run to
assure that a team shoots the ball
within 24 seconds, a shot being con
sidered a ball that at least hits the
rim of the basket. Due to this rule,
scores of most pro games average
over 100 points for each team, this
revealing the great speed of the
game.
Of course, only the best college
players make a career of basket
ball, these players being picked in
a post season draft. Most all of
the basketball players have been to
college for at least two years, and
most of them are college graduates.
The plays of the pros are more
precise and better executed than
college plays. Most players are
over six feet two inches in height,
with the tallest players being Lew
Alcindor and Wilt Chamberlain
(Lew is listed anywhere from 7’2”
to 7’4” tall). Lew signed a contract
with the Milwaukee Bucks for one
million dollars, which is the highest
ever offered.
There are two divisions in pro
basketball, the ABA (American
Basketball Association), and the
NBA (National Basketball Asso
ciation). These divisions have 11
and 14 teams respectively. The
NBA is the oldest of the two. The

divisions tried a merger this past
summer, but it did not work out as
it did in pro football. By the way,
this past Super Bowl was the last
one to be held. The NBA is con
sidered by most to be the best
league.
As far as local interest is con
cerned, North Carolina has a team
in the ABA, the Carolina Cougars,
coached by former Wake Forest
coach Bones McKinney. Former
Winston-Salem State star Earl “the
Pearl” Monroe is an outstanding
player for NBA’s Baltimore Bullets.
Rules for the pros are a little
different from college rules. Dif
ferences aside from the 24 second
clock include each player being
allowed 6 fouls before he fouls out,
and the game being divided into
four 12 minute quarters instead of
two 20 minute halves as in college.
College players are not allowed °to
dunk the ball, but pros can.
While talking about rule changes
and differences, I would like to in
ject here the most recent rule
changing in women’s basketball.
