" Around. The Campus
It began to look as tho we never would l ve a basketball
team but the newspapers say, that the season begins next week
so watch out! After one cf those juicy meals at Steward's
lall the other evening we ambled over to the field house where
it was rumeorecl that a basketball team was assemblii g. Lo ant
behold it, was tritfe I Such stalwarts as Me.
Millan, )aly, Waidrop, 13jorseth, Ary, Wa.l
lace, Cattore, Leighton, Warren, Noble, Man
ning, Baggott, Bernstein, and Samu were
to be seen prancing around in fine style. -
9Suh a lightI
aeriously, the team's progress surprised me. They play a fast
and furious game. They're rough and tough even tho they are
a bit rough' on the edges. Several individuals impressed us as
showine; plenty of promise. Bob Baggott and T. S. Ary are
both good rebounders and good shots. Ary is currently work
in out at the pivot post while Baggott is at one of the forward
slots. Phil Cantore, erstwhile coach of the squad is playing a
steady game at the other forv ard spot. In Geoi ge Wallace
and Jo.e Sam, the Birds hay a pair of sharp-shooting guards.
Iteah Leighton is definity;ly the man to watch. Both lie and
lIuss Bernstein are pressing for berths on the first squad.
ILeighton prepped at U'rbana High in Urbana, Illinois. J. Man
ning, who played fresliinui basketball at St. John Uiiiversity is
one of the belet ball handlers on the team, one thing which
the liBirds are not. too well versed at as yet.
After seeing tlhem work out, I can say this; the tenin prob
uk. won't be the best in the South but it certainly won't be the
worst by far. More work could develope a very simooth ma
chine out of this average t all club.
S -A Coach At Last!! /
One of the-nmajor difficulties that w ,. . ""ed thin jeai
in getting the basketball seasonl rolling. was that of finding a
coach to replace Lt. Rex Enright, who is now at (eorgia 're
Flight. Finea"lly, steps forward one of the V-5 officers, in the +
unlit, Lt. Harry "lop" Findlay who is known as
the volunteer coach. lie is not payed for his ef
forts and the time spent in this work is purely
his donation.
Lt. Finidlay ...played colliege- basketball at lhe
t'niversity of Southern California. lie hits coached
seven years of igh school ball. lie has taken the
teaim over and s training them vigorousl., for the
first. game against Camp Butner, N. C. We wish
him tie best of luck in his work and hope that the
team has a highly successful season.
