Time For Baseball For several months rumors have been circulating around

the campus concerning the possibility of LaGrange College fielding a baseball team.

Naturally, such an undertaking would present many pro- blems to the administration. Where would we play our home games? Can we afford it? Will the student body support the team? Where can we get a coach and players who could combine efforts to produce a winning team?

LaGrange College students are not the type to sup- port a team that does not win consistently. Our student body wants our team to be number one, and if the team is not, it will receive very little support.

In order to mold a winning baseball team out of nothing, LaGrange College is going to have to do a lot. A great deal of money and time will have to be spent, before LaGrange College can field a team that will be able to compete in our area.

The first requirement will be securing a coach, who has proved himself by coaching a winning college baseball team.

Our second need will be players - scholarshiped play- ers. We have several boys here who could play college baseball, and they should be put on scholarships comparable to those granted the boys we bring in, provided their abilities are similar. Scholarships are prerequisite to producing a win- ning team in any sport.

It can be seen that a winning baseball team at LaGrange College will involve a great deal of time and money. The necessary money will have to come from the students, so ultimately it seems we will have to vote to raise our acti- vity fees.

The Hilltop News would like to see LaGrange College field a good baseball team. It would give our school more prestige, thereby enhancing the value of our degrees. Also, baseball is a popular sport that boys and girls alike, enjoy as both spectators and participants.

Some of us here have had the pleasure of hearing Dr. Henry recite the poem "Casey at the Bat". Others may remem- ber the interfraternity playoff game last spring, when Dr. Henry stayed until the final out. He seems quite a base- ball fan, himself--the logical candidate, I think, to throw out the first ball next spring when LaGrange College has its first baseball team.

Letters to the Editor Dear Editor:

Election - time is drawing near, and it has come to our attention that something has to be done to preserve the mean- ing of CLASS PARTICIPATION. To criticize the works of others, one has to feel himself fully capable and responsible for his actions. Having attended every class meeting and volunteer- ing for all possible partici- pation, we do" just that •- feel ourselves capable.

Our first obligation as a class was to give a dance for the Juniors in return for theirs, acquainting us with our "big" sisters and brothers. Somehow this dance was not even brought up after the first meeting. Next, comes the Freshman class float for the Homecoming pa- rade. It seems that, instead of working as a class, collecting necessary equipment, and build- ing the float was built upon bought materials and by a se- lect few at a cost of between $90 • $100.

Now we come to the subject on which we have many per- sonal feelings about -STUNT NIGHT!!! Stunt night is sup- posed to be a night in which each class submits a play or some sort of skit to be grad- ed in competition and awarded a cash prize. We were inform- ed by our able Vice-President that he had decided upon a play and that he would direct it. That is the last we heard of it until about two days be- fore it was to be given. We were then informed by our "rul- ing body" that the Freshman class would not be entering any sort of entertainment in such childish affairs as STUNT NIGHT. Maybe we're children at heart, but we still get a lot of enjoyment out of such "childish" affairs. But this blame should not be placed upon all, because all of our thanks should go to the hand- ful of students who put a skit together the lasLday and pre- sented it that night. Also, a thank-you to the other classes who cheered these students and sang "...Glory, glory to the Freshmen." It's just a shame that more Freshmen couldn't share in this compliment.

And now comes the last to- pic and probably the most im- portant to most of the Fresh- men-RATWEEK. Itseemsthat a rumor turning fact to have it abolished is coming about. A "select" few of our ruling house has seen it in their power to try to put a stop to this long-time tradition. It seems funny that this select few are the ones who couldn't take ratting, fraternity pledging, or who didn't pledge at all. For the sake of college-life, Fresh- men UNITE to put down this movement and all future plans to

do away with college life. There still might be a chance

for the Freshmen class, if we stick together and decide who will best fill OUR needs in- stead of their OWN. Let's see the Sophmore election put into office the ones who will work for us -- the students.

'Student Of The Week'

Brown Lauds Teachers BY TOM HUGHES

Gary Brown, a senior from Newnan, Georgia, has been se- lected by the HILLTOP NEWS staff as Student of the Week.

Gary is a chemistry major who has always been an active member of the college com- munity. He is a member of Sigma, the Honorary Math and Science Society, The Circle K and Pi Delta Kappa fraternity here at LaGrange. And he was elected as an Outstanding Se- nior by the student body. Who's Who Among American College and University students will re- flect his name this year.

The staff asked Gary three questions concerning his years at LaGrange in the hope of getting a respected opinion.

Gary was asked about what he considered to be the most worthwhile experience of his years at LaGrange. "My asso- ciate withdedicated members of the math and science depart- ment who I have studied under."

His answer as to what was his most satisfying personal experience here was, "My fra- ternity association." Gary is serving as president of Pi Del- ta Kappa this year, and in the past has served as both his- torian and treasurer.

We asked him one negative question and received an ans- wer which speaks for a ma- lority of the student body. "What Is the least worthwhile activity at LaGrange?" "In my opinion the least worthwhile activity is weekly assembly in its pre- sent state. These programs could have a worthwhile pur-' pose but somehow they don't seem to hold the interest of the students. The only reason students go to assembly is be- cause they have to."

Gary will graduate from La-

Dr. Co/aw (Continued from page one) sent position. The Hyde Park Community Church has a mem- bership of 2,600.

The LaGrange speaker Is chairman of the Ohio Metho- dist Conference's Board of Evangelism and a trustee of Baldwin-Wallace College. He is past president of the Chicago Methodist Ministers' Associa- tion and has served as a dele- gate to numerous church con- ferences and as a member of a number of church boards and commissions.

Dr. Colaw is the author of the book, "The Way of The Mas- ter." He has made several trips abroad, including a visit to the British Isles in 1960 at theinvitation of the British Methodism.

He is married and the father of four children.

Track Team Working Hard

Last year's track team pro- duced more than it's share of outstanding results. Jim Ser- man's 51.0 in the 440 dash, Charles Corbett's 10.2 In the 100 yard, and the relay's 44.8 in the 440, all stand as G.I.A.C. conference records.

Unfortunately LC is deprived of the presence of Sirman and Corbett, as well as of the pole valuting ability of Chuck Nixon. The nucleus of the team is still left, however, and is hoped to be broadened in the near future around such men as, Larry Kinsman. Mike Timmons and

CHEAT DEATH'*

By KNOW FERRIS Sports Editor Ed Stephens.

According to Mr. Ronald Luke, coach of all spring ath- letics, the team needs some new blood, and welcomes any challengers. Mr. Luke went on to say that he felt sure that La- Grange College could produce a winning track team if only all of the potential on campus was used.

In so far as the schedule is concerned, although incomplete at this time, three events have been set up for the month of ApriL On April 2 the L.C. team will travel to Emory University in Atlanta for a three-way con- test with Emory andWestGeor- gia.

On April 23 the Panthers will hit the road again for the West Georgia invitational relays in Carrollton, and to close out the month, the team will re- turn to West Georgia for a dual meet on April 29.

Mr. Luke said the possibi- lity of some home meets is still open, especially if interest in track can be furthered.

The following are the La- Grange College track and field records.

100 yards - Charles Corbett and Ed. Stephens, :10.2

DR. SNEED

Magician to Speak At Cage Banquet

The 1965-66 basketball Pan- thers will step into the spot- light for the final time Satur- day evening when they will be honored at the annual LaGrange Alumni basketball banquet.

Dr. James J. Sneed, pastor of Ousley Methodist Church in Decatur and a professional magician, will be the featured speaker at the banquet,

A member of the American Society of Magicians with pro- fessional rating, Dr. Sneed is past president of both the At- lanta Society of Magicians and the Georgia Magic Club. His feats of magic, which combine mystery with humor, have car- ried him to hundreds of con- ventions and high school and college campuses.

Hurshel Overcash, president of the local LC alumni club, said the Glen M. Simpson Tro- phy will be awarded to the best all-around player and the Alumni Trophy to the most valuable player.

Coach Al Mariotti is expect- ed to review season highlights for the players, the cheer- leaders, the alumni and their guests, and to award letters to squad members.

The banquet is scheduled at 7:30 p.m. Saturday in the college dining hall.

Tennis Team Drops Opener It was a cold afternoon last

Saturday, both for tennis and for the spectators, as unbeaten Alabama College defeated the Panther netters, 8-1.

The going was rough for the Panthers, who, for their first game had to face the number one ranked team in the Ala- bama conference. Coach Ro- nald Luke said that, despite the loss, the team looked good and with some additional prac- tice, the hopes for the future are much brighter, than he previously thought.

Special praise was deserv- ed by Ralph Kuhn, who, as a freshman, won LC's only game by defeating Ronnie Lewis, 6-3, 4-6. 7-5.
