Congmtulaixont to my Daughter! Ob Sunday night, Novem ber 18, Wanda Kay was one of twenty-nine PSU juniors and seniors inducted into the Alpha Chi Honor society at Pinecmst Country Club. Once- tnoreT-! WM very proud of my daughter. Also, I was reminded of how proud Leon, the boys, and I were . at her high school commencement in the Per forming Arts Center--when ?lie graduated at the top of bar class. There have been many changes in my daughter's life since then. But T m thankful that Wanda Oxendine Hunt has continued the process of developing into a capable, efficient, caring young wo man. During their initiation ceremony the new members repeated the Alpha Chi motto: "Ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." (This same statement can be found in John 8:32). How nice that Wanda's husband, Jeff, and I could share this experience with her. Congratulations to my daughter, and to all the other members of Alpha Chi! Being Thankful Besides being thankful for my daughter and my son-in lawi .1 am thankful that my mother is still with us (after nearly ninety years in thiss world). Also that I have two brothers whose families are. "still complete. I am thankful for other family members (including those in Leon's family) and for friends here at Pembroke, as well as those in other places. I am thankful that God made a beautiful world and placed us in it I am thankful that He loved us so much He gave His Son. I am thankful for Jesus' example, as He lived here in this world. I am even more thankful that He loved us enough to give His life for each of us^ I am thankful that we can enjoy the glorious, challenging, often difficult adventure of follow ing Jesus Christ our Savior and Leader. 1 am thankful that we in this country are still blessed with freedoms which so many nations have lost. I am especially thankful for the freedom we have to worship God according to our beliefs without fear of persecution. Let's appeciate and use all these precious freedoms. And let's make every day "thanksgiving day"- one more day to count our many blessings and to give God the glory He deservesf Standing with a United dampus.

M m l^k I -Tv^ECHNirAi norijEGq B* Bob DmImq RTC golf tournament rait e i nearly 33,000 RTC raised nearly $3,000 during its second annual golf tournament two weeks ago, but more important than the money, said Carolyn Ste phens, were the friends RTC made during uie evenu "Hie tournament is pri marily a friend-raiser, not a 6und-raiser," said Ms. Stephens, who heads RTC's resource development pro gram. "It's important to make people aware of our services. It can only help our county." The tournament, sponsored by the school's foundation program, drew a complete field of 110 golfers and for the second year in a row golfing professional Leonard Thomp son served as honorary chair man. Hie $30 entry fee included 18 holes of superball play at Scothurst Country Club in Lumber Bridge, an engraved towel, a one-hour clinic by Thompson and a catered barbecue dinner by Chason's restaurant. "We had entries from all over the county," Ms. Stephens said. "Hie weather was beautiful and everyone enjoyed themselves." Hie team of Doug Lorman, A1 Lewis, Claude Fulghum and Arthur Bradford finished first with a 16-under-par 56. Hie top nine teams received prizes donated by local mer chants. Bradford, who played on the winning team in last year's tournament at Pine crest Country Club, also won a raffle drawing for an Am ana radar range. A set of Power Bilt wood golf clubs were also raffled and won by Tom Holmes. Both prizes were donated by sponsors repre sented by Thompson. "Having Thompson here for the second straight year has really helped our tour nament," said RTC President Fred Williams. "He was most (rracious and considerate of his time." Just prior to the 1 p.m. shotgun start, Thompson off ered a free clinic on "Hitting from the tee." Thompson, a two-time winner on the PGA tour, has played professional ly for 15 years and earned more than $1 million in prize money. He placed third in the Fensacola Open earlier this year ana was among the top five this year at the Greater Greensboro Open. Thompson, a former Lum berton resident, now makes* his home in Myrtle Beach, S.C. He is married to the former Lea Noble of Lumber ton. Other top finishers included the teams of: Vardell Dial, Danny Ward, Hilton Oxendine and Mike Cavendish, with a 15-under par 57; Tony Chagolla, David Zanone, Roger Steward and Ward Wall with a 14-under par 58 and finishing with 13-under-par 59 were the teams of Earl Collins, Jimmy Ray Hunt, Carlyle Nye, Bob Jones and Bruce Schell, Ken Culberson, Melvin Brown and Doug Clark. Construction Update Construction on RTC's new student center is ahead of schedule and could be ready for occupancy before its dead line of May 15, 1987, says Michael Wells, site represen tative for Boney Architects of Wilmington. "Right now, there's painting going on inside the student center and the walkways in the court yard have been paved,"' Wells said. "We're also insulating ducts and pipes." The student center, which will occupy more than 26,000 square feet, is the second largest building in RTC's $8 million construction project "As for the rest of the buildings, there is still a lot of masonry involved," Wells said. "The important thing is to get another building dried in so we can work through the ?? winter months." The next two buildings likely to reach the "dried-in" point are the shop building located in the' north qufdmnt of the campus and the two story classroom building on the east, side of the campus. The classroom building, by far the largest of the facilities under construction with 42,500 square feet, sits between the student center and a 1,000-seat teaching auditorium. * '"We're nearuig completion with the paving of the eecond floor (of th?- cleearoom build- ' ing)." v? ells aekL "But it doesn't mean it's waterproof enough on the first floor tor contractors to begin work inside. Possibly not until the second floor and the roof go up will it be dried in.* Most of the structural steel for the teaching auditorium is up and the floors for the stage have been poured," Wells said . THE COACH'S CORNER Ten Philosophical Mistakes in Sports Hie first mistake deals with the player's conscience. His desire for happiness through winning at any price leads to his rejection of moral responsibility. He needs to realize his sport is good for him much more than winning. "The least initial deviation from the truth is multiplied later a thousandfold," said Aristotle in the fourth century as I consult my coaching notes. The second philosophi cal mistake is not knowing the difference between perceptional thought and conceptual thought The third error in thinking the athlete makes is identifying his cho ice with chance, in other words "he should make a choice and live up to his responsibilities, he owes his sport Other mistakes deal with our human nature-per sonal identity, human associ ation, communication, know ledge vs. opinion. These are subjects I will deal with in my next ten "Coach's Comers" to both the Indian Voice and the Robco if they see fit to publish them. Bruce Barton is very much responsible for the success of the "Coach's YOUR i TAX-FREE \ TUITION FUND. Corner'' the past six yean and has been very cooperative in publishing the "Pembroke Kiwanis Report" and de serves much thanks from us, Pembroke Kiwanians. Kee-wanis is from the Indian, meaning to inform and Bruce has done this for yean, along with his busy school work. He graduates this semester and no one could have done such a task. And Rudy Williams was apparently impressed by-Ay speech to the Lumberton Kiwanis Club and wanted it It dealt with school merger to improve uie schools but the state's apparent failure to assume responsibility due to a lack of authority for supervision of the curriculum has always haunted me, plus its apparent lack of carrying out the seven Cardinal Princi ples of Education, especially m vocational training. But anyway, Rudy Williams and Bruce Barton are two editors who started from scratch to compete with the "Big Metropolitan Robe som an" and I wish uieiu well ana hope they will both publish the "Coach's Corner' and raise my pay.
