  • 1 Page -1 THE WESTERN CAROLINIAN THURSDAY, OCTOBER 7, 1976 Conley loses Guilford, adds Bell Western Carolina University Head Basketball Coach Fred Conley added a new recruit last week alter having taken "an inside look at a dark aspect of collegiate recruiting." Conlcv has signed 6-foot-6, 220-pound Alex Bell of IVnsacola. Fla.. to be the Catamounts' post man this coming season. Conley had previously signed a posi man. John Guilford, but lost him a couple of "Alex is not just someone to fill in." Conley said. '•He is an outstanding young man that I think can help us when we need the effort." Bell joins 6-6 freshman Ben Mitchell, ol Atlanta, (ia • freshman Jimmy McCallister, a 6-3 freshman guard from Kenova. W. Va.; and 6-5 freshman Vance Hughes from Brooklyn. N.Y.. as the Cats- new recruits for the coming campaign. weeks ago. Although Guilford had signed a national letler- ot intent with Western Carolina on April 15 after playing two years as a 6-9 star for Chattahoochee Valley Community College in Phenix City. Ala., he will be playing at East Texas State University this Ihe NCAA and NAIA do not have a reciprocal agreement to honor each other's signings and Guilford was recruited in late August, early September In an East Texas assistant to play for former Western Carolina Coach Jim Gudger, now head coach al East Texas. "We are extremely concerned al losing John Guilford. While the situation is legal, it is very unfair and unethical. We didn't even know John was al East Texas until he had enrolled in classes," said Conlcv. "He had been working here this summer over in a youth program at Cherokee and we thought he had onlv gone for a visit to his home prior to enrolling al WCU this fall." "It is unfair to sign a player in September that has already been signed by another school just to fill a vacancy on your squad." Conlcv said. So. Conley was without a big. post man. but not without hope. He and his staff went to work and found Bell. "Alex played at the Universitv of West Florida last season." said Conley. "and West Florida OJJ tO gOOd Start dropped its basketball program after last season. We are extremely fortunate to find a player of Alix's caliber at this date who had not been signed by another school. Alex has only one year of eligibility left and we are glad that he has decided lie will spend it with us." Bell played two seasons for I'cnsacola Junior College and on two nationally-ranked judo teams. He was an All-State selection at Pensacola High and led his team to the state finals twice. He averaged 14 points per game and 1.1 rebounds last season as West Florida went 20-K and the NAIA National Championship Tourney.

Ihe only loss of the young season came last Tuesday, when the Western squad was narrowly defeated by Elon College (14-16, 15-12, 11-15) on the road. Elon, a perennial power, is now 10-1. WCU did manage to take St. Augustine College rather easily (15-9, 15-1), and Coach Betty Peele praised the play of setter Diane Hallis and the overall teamwork of the squad.

According to UC officials, most of the workshops were filled shortly after their announcement and now have waiting lists.

There are some good J things going on at the UC now. and Jacobs 3 deserves the thanks. jj One of the few improvements which could be I suggested is that more of the same type of things be planned for the winter and spring quarters. Tim, keep on reading those newspapers.
