11 Students Take
Rural Teaching
This Quarter
Several students, because of
their ability and attitude toward
teaching, were chosen to teach In
rural schools this quarter. The
students are receiving additional
training and experience in teach
ing by having complete charge of
a classroom, and they are under
the guidance of a trained super
visor. The students are receiving
this training at no cost to them
selves.
Many of these students will not
graduate until the end of the sum
mer quarter because of availing
themselves of this opportunity. But
as they receive credit for one
course by doing this work, they
will be able to graduate after the
six weeks of summer school. They
will be entertained along with the
rest of the graduates, and special
recognition of them will be made
at the graduation exercises.
A list of the students and the
school he is teaching follows*
McOibaney School: Doris Hol
lingsworth, Grade 1; Marian Mote,
Grade 2 and 3.

Strozier Releases
Schedule Of Tilts
For Spring Quarter
By JAMES PINSON
Forrest Champnon, Chipley, was
named manager of the tennis team
by the athlete council of the col
lege, according to an announce
ment by R. M. Strozier tennis
mentor. Coach Strozier also re
leased the schedule of the matches
to be played during the spring

On the firing line for W. G. C.
will be two members of last years
team, Harley Bowers and John
Henderson. Besides these two vet
erans there will be such performers
as Norris Newell and Travis Ellison

This quartet of netmen will form
the neucleus of the team which
will carry West Georgia’s banner
on the courts this year. In addi
tion there will be such stalwarts
as Kendrick Hudson, Cula Newell,
William Cleghorn, Robert Stevens,
Davis Morgan and John Smyly to
bolster up the squad.
Seedings for the team will be
determined by competitive matches
among team members. The results
of these matches will be posted
and kept up to date on the tennis
ladder in Academic Building. The
rules regarding the above matches
are important and Coach Strozier
urges all those inteested to read
them.
“The facilities for tennis have
been greatly improved. In ad

new equipment has been pur
chased and everything appears to
be in shipshape for the followers
of the court,” stated coach Strozier.
The schedule that follows ap
plies only to the men’s team with
the exception of the match with
Atlanta Junior Colege in which
both the men and women’s team
