COVINGTON, GEORGIA, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 12, 1953
DICK EDWARDS SAYS:
RELIGION COMES TO CAMPUS
This past Monday started the
annual Religious Emphasis Week
ai d students at E. A. O. are at
tending chapel everyday. With
in the past month we have had
about 5 or 6 ministers who have
delivered fine and needed mess
ages. It has been within this time
that I have heard some doleful
complaining on this lovely campus
concerning the number of reli
gious chapels we've been having.
On this I have but one thing to
say: Emory is a Methodist School,
and a church school will right
fully have more religion than a
state institution.
In the past the Student Sen-
“C” Company got revenge for
two previous defeats by “A"
Company by taking a 50-43
victory Saturdaj r night. It was
a vital victory for the winners,
since a third straight loss to
“A" Company would have virtu
ally crushed the championship
hopes of the Blue team. The
win left them a half a game
back of the losers, and the
championship might be in the
balance when the two teams
meet for the last time during
the regular season February 18.
For the second consecutive
game, the "A" Company team,
playing without the services of
forward Danny Brown, fell be
hind at the beginning and were
not able to catch up. “C" Com
pany led at the end of the first
period. 10-5.
“C” Company really started
rolling in the second period,
and led at the end of the first
half, 25-12. Forward Irv Ful
mer scored sever, points during
the ‘ C” Company surge.
"A" Company could not get
a rally started in the third
period as the winners' lead
reached twenty-one points at
one time. The score at the end
of the period was 40-20
The Red team, which has al
ways been a strong finisher.
. really found the range in the
last period and fought desperate
ly to overcome the deficit. Al
though the team scored more
points during the period than it
had scored in the first three
periods combined, the end of
! the game found them seven
points short.
The big gun in the winners’
attack was center John Cooke
who scored 16 points. He was
followed by Fulmer and for
ward Van Williams with 15 and
ten points, respectively. Leading
the “A” Company scoring were
forward Richard Jones and
guard Melvin Kersey, each with
11 points and center Thomas
Dykes, whn scored ten points,
al! in the second half.
The R team gam? saw th?
“C” Company team roll to a
24-19 wun. led by their center.
Gen? Fortson, who scored 14
points. The top performance for
th? losers was Frank Walrath’s
seven points.*
Dance Contract
Given Approval
Phi Gamma approved a dance
, contract between Few and Phi
Gamma Monday night. Th? con
tract will establish the minimum
fee for any dance the clubs may
sponsor at fifty cents for non
members.
A picture of Christ is soon to
be purchased for Phi Gamma Hall J
to add religious emphasis to the
meeting place. It is hoped that
it will be available in a few days.
White's Shanty Is
Under New Manage't
White's Shanty, located at th?
city limits on the Jackson High
way, will re-open Sunday, Feb

I cious food will be served seven

r
ates worry has been with “noise”
and students (who live on cam
pus) driving cars. It is now my
opinion, that if the students who
live in Covington continually
drive (on and off the roads) on
campus as they have in the past
that the Student Senate “force"
these students to apply for a
driving permit.

Congratulations to the Glee
Religious Emphasis Week
This week. Religious Emphasis Week on ouf campus,
can be one of the most inspiring of the school year, if we
as students will but make it so.
It is a time for the strengthening of our religious faith.
The man who is leading us toward this goal is one who is
dedicated to the service of God and His kingdom and one
who will mean a great deal to our campus.
Much has been said among the students about the
monotony of the five chapel period week, but it need not
be so if we will only get into the real spirit of the activities.
This being a Christian college we are at many times during
the year addressed by various religious leaders; but in this
whole week we have the opportunity to really learn how to
make our Christianity work.
It is our hope that the’members of EAO will put them
selves out to come unto a better understanding of God and
His will through this week’s study.
Club. They did a bang up job on
the Creation one which I’m sure
Mr. Haydn would have been
proud of. If they do that good of
a job on their Winter and Spring
they'll recruit many worthy men
to E. A. O. in the future years.
