Page Four THE CHOWANIAN DECEMBER 1953 I I A Bull Session In Boy's Dorm By LYNN GRICE At a recent “bull session” in the, boy’s dorm the subject was brought up, “Will I be able to claim Cho wan College as a dependent on my income tax.” Opposite to popular rumor, the College obviously has no other means of support than her students or she would not depend so heavily on them. There was the suggestion that the College mail out statements at the first of every year saying how much each student has been taken for. One further suggestion, was that the space on the parking ticket designated “offense” should be changed to pretense since this more clearly points out on what ground the ticket was written. “I am quite aware that my pub lic waits eagerly for my words.” That is why I spend hours each week over these problems.” “I have failed several exams al ready this semester as a result of seeking solutions to these problems. But that is just another extracur ricular activity for me. I don’t mind failing courses if I can get an education. “We are in the midst of a great expansion movement. Every cent is needed. That’s why we pay park ing fines, so more parking places can be made so more students, who can’t afford to pay parking fines, can bring one of their cars to school. “I do not like to hear the College criticized. What do students expect? Surely they don’t expect to be con sidered until they have proven themselves, and so far this year we have not done this. CHOWAN CAGE ROSTER J. W.

I. 79-63 Chowan College was handed its first loss of the season by E. M. I. in a thrilling cage bat tle. E. M. I. jumped to an eight point lead before the Braves were able to score. This advan tage enabled E. M. I. to enjoy a comfortable lead throughout the first quarter. Both teams played evenly matched ball during the second quarter; Chowan outscor- ing E. M. I. by one point. The score stood 41-31 in favor of E. M. I. at the half. At the beginning of the third quarter, a m a r k e d difference was seen in the Chowan team both in offense and defense. Yates and Griffin posed constant threats to E. M. I. with their set shots and guard Jim Glover hit his free throws with unerring accuracy. Chowan controlled the backboards this quarter through the efforts of Yates, Jones and subs, Thrower and Collins. Cho wan came within one point of E. M. I. but could not take the lead. E. M. I. picked up consider ably during the last quarter scoring 22 points. Guards Collins and Blake made most of these with outstanding set shots. High scorers for E. M. I. were; Collins with 24, Ryan and Blake with 15 apiece, and Hol land with 14. Ollie Yates paced the home team with 18 while Dan Griffin and Jim Glover scored 14 and 13 respectively.

Dr. Udvarnoki speaks English fluently, and is in various other nrQv; woll ousUfiod to a service of exceptional value to the thousands of Hungarian refugees, Baptist and others, who are now coming to our shores as to a pro mised land of liberty. He has a warm heart and an indomitably '■heerful spirit, and these are coupled with a mind thoroughly practical. In Murfreesboro he and his gravious wife—the former Miss Ruby Daniel, some-time missionary in Europe and Africa—play a large part in the life of the college and community. Many persons in the seventeen states which Dr. Udvarnoki visited in his speaking tour will follow with keen interest this new chapter in his eminently useful life. They will rejoice at the service he is able to render to a particularly needy segment of humanity, and at the publicity which will accrue to our Baptist relief work. They wiU hope to see him and hear him on television; and will pray for the effectiveness of his ministrations. They wiU pray also that a beloved sister of Dr. Udvarnoki, who es caped from Hungary to Denmark only a short time ago, may be among those who will be fortunate enough to cross the Atlantic in the near future, and see her brother face to face. The Chowan Braves open their 56-57 basketball season with Wake Forest Seminary at Wake Forest on Wednesday, Dec. 5. They then face two im portant conference games with E. M. I. on the seventh and eighth of December. There are thirteen boys, in cluding three lettermen, out for the varsity squad this year. Coach Ike Davis is really get ting the team in shape witn a thorough training program. The team has plenty of spirit and Rveryone is working hard for that important startmg assign ment. We are all looking for ward to a good season. Probable starters for the C;howan Braves will be: J. W. Glover and Dan Griffin at guard, Roger Byrd at center, and Ollie ifates and C. W. Jones at for- Arard. Chowan Stops Southeastern The Chowan Braves rolled up their first victory of the season with an impressive 64-50 win over Southeasleiii Seniinary a; Wake Forest. Chowan took the lead early in the first quarter through the ef forts of Dan Griffin and Roger Byrd. From then on the Braves were out in front all of the way. The second team went in early in the third quarter and contin ued to raise the Chowan score. The Braves controlled the back board most of the night due to the rebounding of Byrd, Yates, and Jones. Byrd was high score for Cho wan with 19 points while Love and Agee shared the honors for Southeastern with 10 points a- piece. We Thank You The staff of “The Chowanian” would like to express their ap preciation to the Graphic Arts Department who displayed un surpassed co-operation in getting out this edition of the paper. We would also like to thank the fa culty for allowing the members to miss classes to work on the pa per. The staff hopes this edition proves that our work is sincere. By LYNN GRICE During a strenous quiz week prior to Christmas one over laden student, Betsy C. remarked that “every party has a pooper—and hey’re called professors.” Since Reynold’s Tobacco Com pany has put out a Winston and J Salem cigarette Olive Y. speculated that the “Hyphon” will be next on the list. 0ns psychology class recently touched on the eccentricities of the college professor. One phen omenon that I can’t understand is why professors walk in pour ing rain with their unbrellas closed. Regardless of whether our big, brave, and armed night watch man is a cowboy or play soldier, there is one principal that should not be violated. Any of our Nat ional Guard boys or regular wes tern fan (and if you go to a movie in this vicinity you prob- ibly are a western fan) know the best cowboys and soldiers spread out when they attack armed op position. Let this advice be heeded men. We’d hate to see all our College paid heroes “exterminated” by our night watchman. Cadets Edge Chowan Braves In Thrilling Game 70-63 Chowan Tops M.C.V. 61-50 The Chowan Braves evened up their season’s record with a 61-50 defeat of the Medical Col lege of Virginia last night in Richmond, Va. A tight first quar ter found the game tied up at 12 all as the period ended. The second quarter found Cho wan constantly plagued by fum bles and bad passes. The Medi cos took advantage of this op portunity. Sydnor was outstand ing for the losers during this quarter, scoring 10 points. The score read 27-23 in favor of M. C. V. at the half. When Chowan took the court at the beginning of the third quarter, it was as if a new team was in the game. The majority Df their plays went off like clock work as the team really buckled down and played the kind of ball they were capable of playing. The Braves, led by Ollie Yates, scored 19 points while holding their opponet to 12. In the final contest of a two game series, E. M. I. squeezed out a 70-63 decision over Chowan in a hard fought game. It was Chowan’s second loss of the season. Chowan scored first on a hook shot by C. W. Jones, but E. M. I. was quick to even the score, varying over five points through out the quarter. E. M. I. took the lead late in the period and led Chowan 22-20 as the quarter ran out. Guard Jim Glover was in jured at the beginning of the quarter and was replaced alter nately by Dick Hubbard and Hamp Privette. Both defenses tightened up in the second period. The defense of Chowan was a little bit harder to crack through as the Braves took the lead and led E. M. I. at the half by three points. Third quarter saw the same hard fought ball playing from both teams. It was evident that both teams were playing at the peak of their ability. The fourth period proved to be the all important one as E. M. I. took over the lead and held on to it, despite a Chowan drive, to win the gam.e. Collins paced the victors with 16 points while Outland and Hol land were close behind with 14 and 15 respectively. Roger Byrd led the Braves’ at tack with 20 points and was fol lowed by Jones with 17 points and Yates with 14 points. MIXON (Continued from Page 1) full membership. The institution is now fully accredited, much to everyone’s joy. In connection with the accredita tion Mr. Claude Gaddy, Mr. Curtis Bishop, and Mr. Doyle W. Boggs reported to Dean Brooks that upon visiting several senior colleges in the state they particularly noticed the progress of the Chowan grad uates. This is a very compliment ary statement to be bestowed upon Chowan and its graduates. We hope this statement will hold true in the years to come. Dean Brooks asked that he might take this opportunity to thank the entire student body for its com plete co-operation throughout the campus while the representatives were here. He would especially like to express his gratitude to those students who met with these representatives and showed much school spirit. Again we all say, “Thank you.” CHRISTMAS GREETINGS From WALTER'S GRILL Murlreesboro, N.C. Phone 9986 R. H. UNDERWOOD ESSO SERViCENTER Murfreesboro, N. C.
