OWLS OWN 4-10 RECORD
On December 12, the Charlotte College Owls, with a 1-2
record, entertained the Gardner-Webb Bulldogs, and handed
the lads from Boiling Springs a sound thumping, 55-44. The
Owls led 16-8 at the end of the first period, and 23-17 at half-
time. The Dogs caught fire briefly in the third period and
knotted the score 33-33. But the issue was quickly decided as
C. C. began to connect from all angles. Glenn Keever and
Brown bagged 17 apiece to pace the Owl attack. Smith had
15 for Gardner-Webb. This victory marked C. C.’s first con
ference win in over two years.
C. C. 48, Myers Park 51
As the Owls returned to action
on Jan. 6 against Myers Park,
is appeared evident tliat the “Col
lege Boys” had overly enjoyed
themselves during the holiday, for
C. C. fell before the Mustangs
51-48 in one of the city’s major
upsets.
Unable to get their offense start
ed, the Owls lost the contest in
the waning minutes. Jerry Martin
and Keever led the Birds with 14
and 13 points, respectively.
C. C. 35, Davidson Frosh 61
On Jan. 9, George Sparger’s boys
visited Davidson College to play
their highly touted freshman team.
The first two quarters were nip
and tuck and the Wildkittens
W'alked away at intermission with
a slim lead of only five points.
But as the game progressed David
son’s three-platoon system wore
down the reserve shy Owls, and
the Kittens emerged victorious, GI
BS. Y. 0. Carter of C. C. led all
scorers with 12 points.
C. C. 54, Wingate 91
The Owls ventured to Wingate
Junior College on Jan. 11, and got
their feathers ruffled as the Bull
dogs romped to a 91-54 victory. The
strong Wingate Quint jumped to a
quick lead, and by halftime had
iced the contest.
The Owls kept pecking at the
lead, as they outscrapped the Dogs
in the final stanza. Martin and
Keever again were the top C. C.
point getters, netting 13 apiece.
C. C. 58, F'feiffer 74
The Owls played host to Pfeiffer
Junior College Jan. 13, and were
handed a 74-58 defeat. The contest
was decided in the 1st period as
Pfeiffer rolled to a 16-point advan
tage. From then on the Owls fought
on even terms. Brown his 22 for
C. C., followed by Knox and Mar
tin with 13, while Hempfield paced
the winners with 21.
C. C. 50, Belmont Abbey 26
The Belmont Abbey Ramblers
came to town Jan. 14, and the
steamed-up C. C. Owls abruptly
defeated the Abbey lads, 50-26.
Jumping away to a quick lead, the
Collegians were ahead 26-8 at half-
time.

FORMER STUDENTS
Earl Yandle, a graduate of the
University of N. C., is coming back
to Charlotte College. It seems that
Earl did not receive his Associate
of Arts Degree from Charlotte Col
lege, but went to Chapel Hill. He
now wishes to complete a small
amount of necessary courses to re
ceive his A.A. degree from C. C.
Sula Floros, a recent C. C. grad
uate, is on the Dean’s List at Caro
lina. While at C. C., Sula was active
in the Student Government and oth
er school functions. She is now
president of the Alumni Associa
tion.
The elections for superlatives
for the Annual were far more suc
cessful than any other elections
have been this year. Nearly three-
fourths of the student body voted,
and they did a fine job in selecting
their superlatives. The Elections
Committee appreciates the co-op
eration received from the student
body by casting so many votes.
The results of the elections are
as follows: Best Dancers: James
Fitzgerald and Kitty Monty; Best
Looking: Bob Noreen and Martha
Stogner; Outstanding Athlete:
Glenn Keever; Wittiest: Zeke John
son and Marjorie Lotshaw; Most
Likely to Succeed: Bill Davis and
Martha Stogner; Best All-Kound:
Jerry Martin and Margaret Faul-
kenburg; Best Dressed: Bobby Hen
derson and Kitty Monty; Friend
liest: Jim Gunnells and Marjorie
Lotshaw.
The motion concerning the Activ
ity Fee, which was originated and
carried by the Student Council,
was put to the vote of the Student
Body. The motion read as follows:
“. . . the initial Student Activity
fee be increased from $4.00 to $7.50
to include printing and expenses
of the Annual. This would mean
that the student would pay $7.50
for the Fall Quarter, and the usual
fee of $4.00 for the remaining two
quarters. However, a student en
tering for the first time in the
Winter Quarter would pay the $7.50
fee for that quarter and $4.00 in
the Spring. Any student entering
in the Spring Quarter would not
be charged the $7.50 fee. Only
those students taking at least two
subjects would be charged the fee
of $7.50”
Once again the Elections Com
mittee received the support of a
large percentage of the student
body, and a large majority of the
votes cast were in favor of the mo
tion as passed by the Student Coun
cil. Thanks to all who voted from
the Elections Committee, from the
Student Council, and from the An
nual Staff.
