With Best Record In Recent Years
The. football season for Clark College just ended produced
one of the best records ever compiled by a Clark team. The
1959 Panthers (5-1-2) are second only to the 1928 squad
which ended with a 7-1-1 record.
The Panthers this year romp-| In Ihe next game, against
ed undefeated, but twice-tied, | Morehouse, the Panthers ba-
through their first seven games, came a “team to beat” after
taking Claflin, Fort Valley,
Morehouse, Xavier and Savan
nah State. Along the way they
tied 1 Tuskegee and Alabama
Statein consecutive games, and
at the season’s close were
shocked by Morris Brown, who
handed them a 38-0 loss before
paoked stands at Herndon Sta
dium on Thanksgiving Day.
What speaks best for the
Ciarkites and their Coach this
year is the fact that only twelve
of the members of the squad had
any college football experience.
Twenty-seven men on the thirty-
nine-man team were freshmen.
Opening victories over Clafin
and Fort Valley (over Fort Val
ley for the first time in several
years) brought forth a consid
erable amount of comment, as
did the - 6-6 tie with Tuskegee
(then-unbeaten). The subsequ*
ent tie with Alabama Slate set
the Panthers back somewhat,
but the fact that the team came
from behind to tie the score on
the last play of the game kept
the living room quarterbacs
talking.
Improvements In Coeds’ Recreation
By REBECCA N. BROWN
May we say that is is due to oversight on the part of the
students that they are not aware of changes made in the
recreational life of Clark coeds?
This is perhaps the logical view to take for the health
and recreation committee gave an itemnized report on new
games, etc., at the disposal of Clark students. Among these
are the shuffleboard courts and ping pong tables in dorms
on campus. Intramural games are ibeing played now with
a trophy for the victors at the end of the season.
Giving us something to look forward to in the spring
is the Beckwith Street play area which, provides facilities for
basket/bail, tennis, volleyball and horse shoes.
Students are aware of the fact that the equipment is
costly and should toe “handled with , care.”
Recreational facilities now are better than they were a
year ago and will continue to get toetter as time passes.
Realize this is an evolutionary, not a revolutionary, proj
ect.
Forced Hallelujahs Continued from Page 3
their hearts everything else excluded. There is room in the
realm of God for true worshippers; hypocrites are banned.
God does not welcome those who sing to Him “forced hal
lelujahs” as is evidenced in (Lucifer toeing cast from heaven.
The quality of speakers and religious attitudes of listeners
has also been criticized. It is believed that if more emphatic
speakers are secured it will not toe necessary to compel students
to attend services. This seemms logical because students at
Clark were aware of the type of institution they were coming
to before they enrolled, therefore hostile attitudes should not
toe apparent for the .traditions of the college.
The penalty for missing one worship service appears to
toe naive and tends to make students -feel that they are toeing
treated as children. The penalty is that any student missing
morning worship service is not allowed any social activities
for the dady. This -reminds you of what Mommy did when
you were ten and didn’t go to Sunday .School.
This the predominant attitude of campus students in
regards to compulsory worship. The changing of this atti
tude will take time.
In the meantime students of C. C. will still be singing
“forced hallelujahs.”

they registered a 16-14 win over
the Tigers, who have ended the
season with only one other de
feat. A week later the Olarkites
had to come from behind again
to outscore Xavier at New Or
leans for a hard-earned 32-28
victory. Coming to grips with
Savannah State in their next-
to-last contest, the high-flying
Panthers piled up their greatest
margin of victory with a 28-12
score.

In their most -impressive vic
tory of the season, the Panthers
on February 4 handed Fisk Uni
versity a resounding 96-69 de
feat at Joe Louis Gymnasium.
The Ciarkites went -into the
lead about five minutes after
the start and held it all the way.
They began surging further
ahead early in the second half
with the entire team scoring.
It was the Ciarkites’ third re
peat engagement with an STAC
foe, and the Panthers maintain
ed their record of not -being
beaten twice in the season by
any team.

umphing to the tune of 38-0.
The fast-charging Wolverines
piled up a 25-0 lead during the
first half to gain their eleventh
straight win over the Panthers.
Experience and Height Shortage
Hurt Panthers' Basketball Record
Hard-presed for height and experience, Clark’s
hardwood Panthers, with a 4-12 record for all games
played as of this writing, appear headed for theilr
worse season in many years.
Losing basketball games is
something rather new for a
Clark squad, which has figured
in virtually every tournament,
and frequently in the finals, for
every year since they -began a
iclimb to . prominence with the
1951 squad. In that year the
Ciarkites brought home a
tournament third place from
Tuskegee and the next: year
when through a seventeen-game
win strak to pull -in the confer
ence’s visitation trophy. Since
then the Ciarkites have added at
least five trophies to the Haven-
Warren display oase.
-Only a miracle now can bring
glory. It’ll have to -be a surging
finish to the Reason, which at
best can give them only a .500
record, and a .bid,to the confer
ence’s tournament. -Known for
surprising finishes, the Clark-
ites, once in melee, might go on
to win a tournament trophy.
This seems remote, however,
for the Panthers this year —
short as they are on experience
— are not yet the clutch-type
team which has been character
istic of Coach Epps’ squads of
the past. The greatest handicap
aid season, -with the height prob
lem somewhat diminishing near
the season's end, was experience.
Coach Epps has had to play
with three freshmen in the.
game in virtually every contest
this year, and while the neo
phytes made a good showing for
themselves, the all-important ex
perience just wasn’t there and
the team could not come through
when the chips were down.
Whether the experience of 16
games played as of this writing
can change the picture for the
imporant remaining games re
mains to be seen.
The outlook for next year is
much brighter, and Ciarkites can
look for big things out of their
Panthers in ’61. Barring schol
astic deficiencies and withdraw
als, the-team this year will be
totally intact next year. The
-present newcomers should be
thoroughly seasoned, and with
the possible addition of one or
two good rebounders, the Ciark
ites look like a team to watch
in 1961.
