Take male and female college students, for instance. When asked to inter pret the same phrases, they come up with greatly different ideas, as in the following: PHRASE: “For menhavemar- ble, women waxen minds.” BOY: “Girls are all dumb.” GIRL: “Boys are hard- headed.” •* PHRASE: “A rat?” BOY: “A rat is the bad guy in a movie.” GIRL: “Where?” ** PHRASE: “Let us make a felony of small beer." BOY: “Make it a law to sell only large beers!” QRL: “People shouldn’t drink.” T TOM WINSTEAD SPORTS EDITOR Squad Cuts Spur Work By Tom Winstead The sports season at C. C. started off with the blowing whis tle on Thursday night, November 1. In Piedmont’s gymnasium. Coash Edelman was warming up the twenty-three basketball can didates for the opening game with St. Andrew’s held on De cember 1. Several squad cuts since the first whistle have reduced the roster to the following twelve players: Butch Gilbert, Gary Gummerson, Hyman Harris, Rusty Harris, Gene Henderson, Jimmy James, Russell Jones, Fred Martin, Rone Miller, Ro bert Schaeffer, George White, and Marvin Wynn. Monday through F riday of each week, squad practices runs 8-10 P.M. Hunch About The Universe Professor Spillard hopes to relate Energy to Space in some manner comparable to Einstein’s success with Matter and Energy. Tentatively the new formula reads: S = ec^ . but that may not be its final state ment. This revolutionary concept may prove that space is but a rarified form of energy. Thus the current notion about a re ceding universe would be con tradicted, and the curvature of space could be explained as an attempt to make room for itself. In practical application this new theory will solve space tra vel nicely, as the possibilities are as infinite as space itself. Just think of condensing a bil lion light years of any tra jectory into a fresh burst of energy to speed the intergalac- tic ship along the remaining arc of the voyage! Of course, any surplus energy would be squeezed thriftily into reserve matter. Thus spare parts could be easily fabricated en route, and expedient repairs would be routine. “The most charming thing about this theory.” Prof. Spil- Ired stated, “is that we can never run out of space for things.” It PAYS To Advertise Regularly In CiIoUp0tatt DECEMBER BASKETBALL SCHEDULE Ail Games At Garinger Gym Sat.

Coach Edelman Back By Tom Winstead Twelve years ago Charlotte College had a coach who sent two boys to the All-Conference games. This year the same coach is back at work with Charlotte College. A product of Duke University, with a Master’s degree. Coach Irving Edelman has worked at Piedmont, Central, and Garinger as both coach and History tea cher. Presently he is teaching History at Garinger, leauring French Club ‘Tours' France By Joyce Pressley The Charlotte College French Club met for the second time Saturday night, October 24. Held in a lecture room at the new Y.M.CJV., the meeting featured a tour through France by means of two very colorful films. The group visited Paris, Nice, the iDeautiful castles of the Loire River-- Amboise, Blois, Cham- bord, Chenonceaux, and Azay- le-Rideau-- Nimes, Monaco -- including the home of Princess Grace at Monte Carlo, and many other places of interest in France. After the films had been shown. Dr. Pierre Macy, advi sor to the club, led a discussion on French dress, customs, holi days, eating habits, flowers, etc. Mademoiselle Martin, another of Charlotte College’s French tea chers, led an argument on the merits of French food as op posed to those of the Ameri can cuisine; the discussion was mainly about French bread and truffles, a delicacy found parti cularly in the French kitchen. The meeting was brought to an early close because of the dance given for Charlotte College students that same night. ADVICE TO THE LOVELORN —A broken' heart mends faster than important things. Commented a student, gazing at his corrected theme: “This paper looks like it bled to death!” in Political Science at Charlotte College, and coaching the 49’ers in basketball. This schedule makes a full day of teaching and coaching from 8 a.m. until 10 p.m., but the coach says he thoroughly enjoys the combination of work. He is glad to have the oppor tunity to work again vrith CC*s basketball team. Coach Edelman’s ■ only com ment on the team was that it lacks height, even though a coin pie of players stand above six feet. His impression of the team is one of good spirit and hard work, which promise a highly disciplined ball-playing team. There will be no free lance planing this year, says the coach. Charlotte College’s coach knows good discipline on a bas ketball court, having coached one summer with Frank McGuire at the University of North Caro lina. Coach Irving Edelman and his wife have four children. Twd are in school at Shamrock Gar dens, and two are too young to enter school.
