Moore Wins Race
With U. S. Mail
On the day Richard Moore, late
of the U. S. Army, received his
first bill from the college, he re
ceived a letter from Dean R. M.
Lee informing him that he could
not enroll at Mars Hill.
It all happened this way; Moore
was discharged from the Army
after the spring semester started.
He had written to the college
seeking admission. Dean Lee sent
back his regrets, informing Moore
that he could not enroll so late in
the semester.
In the meantime, Moore had
been moved by the Army. He
didn’t get Dean Lee’s note of re
fusal; so he called the college.
He was told to come as soon as
possible. It was after his arrival
here that the letter refusing him
admission finally caught up with
him.

Spring Practice
Coach Harvey Lance is doing
double duty since both baseball
and Spring football started last
week. He has been running back
and forth between the two fields
giving tips on both batting and
blocking, fielding and pulling out
of the line on an end-around.
About twenty boys turned out
when Spring football practice was
announced. These include two of
Asheville’s star half-backs,' Stew
art and White, who are planning
to come to Mars Hill next year.
They have been handling the pig
skin rather well, and will be a
boost to the team next fall.
Practice has been light so far:
calisthenics, running, and games
of touch with no padding. Scrim
mage may start by the end of the
week. This will get the boys in
condition, for Mars Hill plans a
ten-game schedule next fall, be
ginning with the game with WCTC
here on September 28. The sched
ule calls for nine other games,
enough to give the boys what they
want.
Coach Lance has also been
busy buying new football equip
ment for the team. New pants,
jerseys, shoes, and blocking
equipment are on order. Mars
Hill will have a good-looking team
next year—both in dress and in
playing.
Tusculum Tames
Fighting lions
Traveling to Greeneville, Tenn.,
to play their next to last basket
ball game, the Mars Hill Lions
were defeated by the Tusculum
cagers 45 to 30. The more ex
perienced Tusculum five got off
to a fast start and were able to
control the ball the majority of
the time. They led the Lions 21
to 10 at the half, and came back
in the third and fourth quarters
with the same amount of spiirt
and play to maintain their lead
until the game was over.
Landers and Lunsford did the
honors for the Lions, racking up
8 points apiece. Wood and Mc-
Elrath managed to get 4 each
from the home team. Ed Dunlap
and Kent Brooks were unable to

Although we aren’t Hercules,
Joe Louis, or what-have-you, we
can do our part. The girl’s sports
world has been all aflutter lately,
and rightly they should be! More
competitive games! The girls
either come out of Phys. Ed. with
a wrenched knee or sore throats
from yelling. In the various
classes. Coach Hart has divided
the members into four teams,
playing two teams at one class
period and the remaining two at
the next meeting. Winners of the
two games play against each oth
er and the winners of this game
are crowned “Queens of the
Sport’s World” (in that class).
It is lots a fun and aches—just
what we ladies (!) go for. Sev
eral girls have dusted their rusty
muscles and boosted their teams
with latent ability—which ac
counts for the increase in labor
on Miss Essie’s part of the col
lege routine.
But—the best news yet is of
the tournament between dormi
tories that was held between sup
pers the last two weeks. We even
induced some of the teachers to
venture forth and support their
charges! Speaking of charges,

In Two Home Games
Mars Hill’s baseball season
started Monday, March 4, as a
large turnout answered Coach
Lance’s call for players. Prospects
are beginning to look good as the
team lines up. Charlie Harris is
back after a turn in the army to
hold down first base for the
Lions. He has been doing a swell
job of fielding and hitting, too.
Livingston Greene, star catcher,
is out doing his share of the work.
Several pitchers have been throw
ing to Greene, but the best
prospects are Max Coggin, John
Dixon, and John Spargo. They
have been ripping that pellet
down over the plate, but Pop
Lance has not yet begun to let
them curve the ball. Art Wood
is holding down the second base
position, while Paul Lunsford is
handling the shortstop slot. Both
George Dixon and Walter Lowe
are in the running for third base.
Joe Beam, Harry Woodson, and
Leighton “Chick” Martin, are
doing their bit out in the field.
The schedule has not been re
leased as yet, but letters are out
for about twenty games, the first
ones being played here on March
29 and 30 with Furman Univer
sity.

Joyce Ward, Betty Austin, and
Lib Cherry really took charge of
the ball for their teams. You
should’ve been there the night
Brown and Spilman-Treat tied
and had to play an extra quar
ter—with Spilman finally winning
by eight points. Ann Dyer is an
asset to Melrose—her tiny form
dashing all over the floor, while
Jackie Morton creates a likewise
impression. At all of these games,
members of the fair sex are seen
lounging on the sidelines support
ing their teams. At the time of
this writing the finals of the tour
nament have not been played,
but the decision was made
Wednesday night between Spil
man-Treat and Edna Moore girls.
Activities such as these contribute
to school spirit plus a slim waist
line; so let’s keep up the good
work, girls!
