Press Awards Are Told Race Is Held On Innertubes The academic personnel in the Health and Physical Education Department at Western Carolina have selected Mrs. Linda Gribble York as the recipient of the Alice Benton A- ward and Mr. Lloyd Ross Watson as the recipient of the Keilh Hinds Award.

Folk Music... —Continued from page 4 of music. In addition to the millions of folk recordings that have been sold, manufacturers report booming sales of acoustical or Spanish style folk guitars. The tuneful legion of campus pluck - ers is backed up by thousands of sub-college teeners and smaller fry who have become oriented toward guitar music by the fantastic success of the Beatles and other such "strum groups." Pictured above is the Kappa Alpha entry in the Inter- fraternity innertube race of April 25. Kappa Alpha placed last, following Tau Kappa Epsilon and Delta Sigma Phi. An informal inter-fratemity innertube race down the Tuck- aseigee River on April 25 resulted in victory for three individual members of Tau Kappa Epsilon. Danny Howard, John Powell, and John Vernel- son were the first three contestants to pass under the designated finish line, the bridge across the river above campus. Joe Carnley, a member of Delta Sigma Phi fraternity, followed the others across the line. Kappa Alpha, the only group to stick by the verbal rules in that they rode the river on a raft composed of 32 inner- tubes, was the last of the three competing organizations to reach the finish. Several factors hampered the completion of the race on a satisfactory basis. The race was held on a Sunday, when the floodgates at Lake Glenville remain closed due to a lack of demand for electric power. For this reason the water level stayed at a low ebb, forcing contestants to walk much of the way down the Tuckasegee. Wake Forest, U.N.C.
