went over standing up. But the
referee detected holding in the
line, and brought the ball out to
the 16-yard line. Dunlap lost
three yards on the play that had
completely fooled Cullowhee pre
viously and went over from the 1.
Martin carried the ball to the
9. Ayers went to the 3, where
Cullowhee took over on downs.
Hamilton drove to the 9, and then
scampered 81 yards to the Lions’
10. Hughes then lost 5 yards. On
the next play, he attempted a
pass to Turner, but Ayers inter
cepted on his own 10, and raced
90 yards for a touchdown behind
excellent blocking. Dunlap con
verted and the Lions led 25 to 0.
Dunlap kicked off, and Cullo
whee ran it back to the 40. There
the game ended—Mars Hill 25,
Cullowhee 0.
Hamilton, Cullowhee’s star
back, led the Catamounts. J. C.
Mitchell starred in the Mars Hill
line as well as McLeod, Crouch,
Beam, Cline, Kelley, and Lowe.
Boyd Ayers, high point man of
the afternoon with 18 points for
his three touchdowns, sparkled in
the back field; while Greene and
Martin hit the line with every
thing that they had. Gouge dis
played himself as an excellent
blocker and a good runner. Dun
lap did a superb job of calling
the signals.

Speaking of sports, some of
these girls just seem to have
sports in their bones. F’rinstance,
have you noticed how Lib Cherry
seems to know all the rules in
the sports world? And we love
the athletic impression Susan
Brinson gives. Oh my! If you see
us affected by palsy, it will only
be the muscular exertion of Betty
Ann Bullock when she slings a
ball! Another new discovery is
Lee Ora Banks. You should see
how she gets around on the bas
ketball floor! ’Nuff said about
that, though; we must tell you
about the swimming meet. It was
held between suppers October 24,
with C-II participants being pro
claimed winners. Arriving late,
we had to push our way through
the crowd of beautiful girls sur
rounding the pool watching the
graceful “mermaids.” We par
ticularly noticed the smooth,
powerful way in which Cecelia
Abernathy did the front crawl,
the form of Peggy Chesson’s side
stroke. Lib Howard’s breast
stroke, and the beautiful diving
of Sally Hudson, president of
the swimming club, and Kathryn
Hipps. Sally received recognition
for doing the Jack-knife and
Swan-dive, and Kathryn per
formed gracefully the standing
front dive. This feat ended the

until next spring, when the swim
mers can go in without coming
out an “iceberg.”
The latest and most exciting
news is the organization of the
Woman’s Athletic Association
(WAA for short). Coach Hart
tacked up a notice last week for
all girls to meet her at 7:30. Not
knowing what we had done, we
fearfully attended the meeting,
at which time Coach introduced
to us the general rules of the
WAA. The purpose of th WAA
is to promote wholesome and
healthful activity, to stimulate an
interest in athletics, to create a
spirit of good sportsmanship, and
to cooperate with the other cam
pus organizations in promoting
and maintaining the high stand
ards of college life. Nominations
for officers of this organization
were made at the meeting and
two days later all girls passing
Spilman were dragged in to cast
votes for the nominees. The fol
lowing were elected: President,
Sally Hudson; Vice-president,
Gerry Burgess; Secretary-Treas
urer, Pat Lancaster; and Record
er, Thelma Deal. All girls are re
quested to back these officers.
Activities of the WAA will start
right away.
