Sports included in this program are basketball, baseball, track, tennis, wrestling, boxing, volley ball, horseshoes, croquet, hiking and swimming. The slogan of the intra-mural program is: "Play for all and all playing." During the fall quarter a tennis tournament was held with Roald Hedden carrying off championship honors. An American League basketball tournament was held com-' posed of six teams made up of boys that were not out for football. The Red Sox team composed of Wayne Hall, Roald Hedden, Glen Bridges, Brownlow Barnwell, Steuben Austin, Tom Woodard and Frank Crawford won the championship with five straight victories The Winter Quarter has been literally alive with basketball. Four leagues have been in operation. The Campus League made up of eight teams of seven players each has just closed an interesting round robin series. All the games were j inteercsting and in most cases close scores were the result—several go-1 ing into extra periods. A final check up showed that the Bantams,! a team composed of Brownlow Barnwell, Captain, Dan Pryor, Floyd I Millsaps. Merle Davis, Fisher, Paul Ferguson and Steuben Austin was in the lead with six victories and one defeat. Tire standing of other teams was as follows: Bulldogs, won five, lost 2; Cats, won 5, lost 2; Roosters, won 4, lost 3; Bears, won 3, lost 4; Indians, won 2, lost 5; Ramblers, won 2, lost 5; Panthers, won 1, lost 6. Play in the other three leagues is still in progress. In the Society League the Erosophians are leading over the Columbians with three victories to no defeats; the class league shows the Fresh with one victory over the Sophs and other games to be played; the County League is in full progress with Buncombe boasting a victory over Cherokee ; Clay over Haywood ; and Swain and Jackson squared off to the next encounter. Practically every boy in school has seen action on one of these various teams. Tournaments for the remainder of the year are scheduled in boxing, wrestling, volley ball, track, tennis, horseshoes, swimming and baseball. The Spring is the period when most of the hiking is enjoyed. In addition to the extensive intramural program outlined and the regular varsity scheduled, Junior Varsity games are played with neighboring high schools and Junior colleges.

Alumni in Demand As Coaches for High Schools That graduates of Western Carolina Teachers College who can coach athletics are in demand is shown by the fact that at least thirteen of the leading high schools of Western North Carolina are coached by recent players on Catamount teams. It is significant that every graduate qualified to coach has had a position waiting in most The alumni and their schools are: Charles Morgan, Andrews; Mark Watson, Barnardsville; Martin Nesbitt, Candler; George Gibbs, Dana; Mark Ferguson, Fines Creek ; Paul Lyday, Flat Creek; Carroll Sorrell, Jr., Fletcher; Albert Hill, Fdnevville; George Bristol, Hayesville; Ray Gibbs, Mars Hill; Guy Sutton, Sylva; Wilson Lyday, Valley Springs; and Paul Buchanan, Webster. Several others hold teaching positions. Among these are Harry Sams, Walter Thomas, Ottis Freeman and Alvin Fullbright. Most of the alumni coaches have teams entered in the tournament and it will be interesting to watch them battle each other for championship honors. Both boys' teams in the finals last year, Elf and Sylva, were coached by W. C. T. C. alumni. cup ; the I t for three years. Of the boys' and girls' teams only Bethel has been successful in gaining permanent possession of the cup. The college still holds the boys' cup, i has i fol three years. Beginning with the year 1934, the college awards a trophy to the winning teams of each division every year. This trophy is to become a permanent possession of the winning teams. An all-tournament team will be selected from the various teams of both the boys' and girls' divisions. The team will be composed of the plavers adjudged to be the best at their respective positions. To be named on this team, is the highest honor that can come to an individual player in the tournament. The selection of this team is the climax of the meet and is watched with interest by players, coaches, and fans. Co-authors, Wayne Hall, Frank Crawford Giant Killers That's the New Name for Cullowhee Teams Catamount athletic teams are being hailed tar and wide as "Giant Killers." This appellation is a result of the stunning 9 to 0 defeat that the football team handed to Milligan Home-Coming Day and the unexpected 46 to 33 defeat dished out to Elon January 24. The Milligan football team was champion of the Smoky Mountain Conference. The defeat of Elon was their only one within the North State Conference. Elon won the championship for the second successive year. It has become a noticeable fact that the Catamounts always do their best playing against the strongest opposition. Next best to being champions is to lick the champions, and that is the position of the Catamounts. Teaching Problems Discussed over Tea Cups The practice teachers in the elementary department of the Training School might well be known as the "Tea Club." Two teas have been given recently for the purpose of getting the group together to discuss their problems as well as the situation in the field of education today. At the first of these teas a short program was presented. Miss Mary (ordell, Rachel Williams, Laurence Leatherwood, and James Love gave a very interesting pro- uram on the various phases of education. Since that time several interesting programs have been rendered by the members of the student-teacher-faculty. It is Miss Camp's wish that this idea will take bold as a permanent thing among the practice teachers and that it will carry over into the field of education. DOUBLE-HEADER SPLIT BY CATS Last Games of 1935 Season Played with Lincoln Memorial The Catamount boys' basketball team brought its season to a close February 21 by dividing a two- game series with Lincoln Memorial. Judging from the number of games won, the season's record d< appear so good; but when judged in the light of the class of opposition and the closeness of most of the games, it may be regarded as very successful. The high spot: of the season were the victories over Milligan and Elon. The Catamounts were the only team of the North State Conference to defeat Elon. The Cats took the Christians into camp to the tune of a decisive 46 to 33 score. Woodard, Phillips, Long, A. White, Sutton, Barnwell, McKiu- ney, Hardy, Ratcliffe, M.
