Scott Hamilton applies jarring tackle to Northwood's big tight end.

Northwood Nips Big Blue; Last Minute Proves Fatal

The Glenville Pioneers tasted de­feat in the 1971 season opener, faU­ing to Northwood Insitute, 20-19. The Pioneers met disappointment early in the season as they went out to an early lead only to be overtaken in the last 52 seconds of the game.

The Northwood team was much larger than the Pioneers and proved to be tough foe. However, the Pio­neers put together a good first quarter drive behind the running of Alloway, Pratt, and Richmond. The drive end­ed when the quarterback " Rarnblin" Randy Jeffries pumped a 30 yard aerial to tight-end Kenny Morrison with 4 :18 left in the first quarter. Placekicker Ray Swisher booted the extra point to give the Pioneers a 7-0 lead.

The Northmen came back immed­iately with a drive of their own. Swisher's kick got caught in a hard wind which allowed the Northwood squad to have good field position. They moved the ball down the field behind the ;passing: of Ray Coomer. They scored with 13:12 remaining in the quarter when Coomer tossed a five-yard strike to Brown in the end zone for the touchdown. The score was deadlocked at 7-7 when DeBroka booted an ex tra point.

The Pioneers got the lead back when almost immediately Carl AUo­

way scored on a five-yard run. The drive was led by the blocking of Spencer, Lipscomb, Butta, Harvey, Branniff, and the quarterbacking of Jeffries. The extra point try by Swisher was ruled wide. The ex tra point combo of snapper Kim Wilson, holder Jeffries, and kicker Swisher was slightly off timing. This one

play proved to be decisive . The Pio­neers scored again late in the period when Carl Alloway scored from the two-yard line. Alloway's touchdown was set up by a screen pass from Jeffries to halfback Jim Carter. Car­ter did a remarkable job of running and almost scored as he was tripped up near the goal. Here is where the missed extra point became significant . The Pioneers wanted to make up for the miss by Swisher and chose to go for 2 point "conversion instead of one on a kick. Randy Jeffries rolled out to pass and was tack led before he could get off the pass. The Pioneers went in at the half leading 19-7.

The second half was totally diff­erent. The Pioneers moved the ball well on offense but could not punch it across. Northwood quarterback Coomer was a cool hand in the second half as he directed his team to two scores. The rust came on a 16-yard strike to English. Debroka again kicked perfectly from place­ment to put the score at Glenville 19 and Northwood 14 with 3:46 left in the third quarter.

Glenville came back with their own drive but after reaching the 100yard line, a Jeffrey aerial intended for Kenny Morrison was intercepted in the end lone.

Northwood got the ball late in the game and started their long game winning drive. Coomer connected with Lindsey for the score from 10 yards out with 52 seconds remaining in the game. The two point conversion try was stopped.

The game ended with the Pioneers desperately trying to score.

Scott Hamilton lugs plgskin for good yardage on a punt return against Northwood. Also. shown in the phot" are Randy DiUon 44, Carl Williams 43, Rick Trickett 24, and Hamilton.

I DOWN ON THE CORNER I by Mike Smith

The Agony of Defeat. .. The loss to Northwood was hard

to swa llow but the ball takes funny bounces. The Pioneers played well enough to win and most definitely will learn from their mistakes. A bright spot in the loss was the punt­ing of Paul Ashby who booted the ball for an average of 45 .7 yards. Randy Jeffries looked excep tionaUy good at quarterback. "Ramblin' Ran­dy" was cool under pressure as he showed in the closing seconds of the game when he pumped a perfect bomb to Richard Richmond only to have it dropped . Carl Alloway re­ceived the MVP award in the game. AUoway picked up 95 yards in 13 carries to lead all rushers. Richard Richmond added 74 yards in U carries. Randy Dillon and Gary Jones looked good on defense for the Pioneers.

Confe.rence at a Glance. Salem and West Liberty appear to

be strong again this year. I saw the game they played Satwday and the 6-6 tie was fabulous.

Shepherd defeated Wesleyan 14-0 and they looked strong again 'with the running of a big fullback .

Fairmont defeated Waynesburg 20-o so they will be a team to watch.

W.Va. State soundly defeated W. Va. Tech and Ed Lee was not the leading ground gainer. They have a tremendous freshman running back.

Bluefield won over Concord to give Sid Cure his first college coach­ing win_

Mr. Big Stuff .. Pete Wood of WVU is really mak­

ing his bid for All-American. Wood 's 214 yards broke the all-time WVU record for rushing in a single game.

Just My Imagination. _ The word is out that the Booger­

hole All-Stars are lo,\ded for the basketball seasol!. Names like John Bell, John Hudson, Larry Queen, Jim Cook, Benny (Colt 45) Connor, Ron Smith, Ken Swisher, and Jay Chambers will appear on the roster. The Mud Bowl..

The GSC freshman squad traveled to Greenbrier Military on Monday and played the cadets to a ~O stand­still in the mud and the rain. The cadets never threatened to score reach­ing the Pioneer 20 yard line only once the entire afternoon. The Pio­neers, however, threa tened to score on several occasions but just couldn 't punch it across. The freshman squad appears to be the best we've had in several years. Let's hope they keep it up .

That's all, keep that good attitude.

Veterans Prepare Slate Of Activfties

The newly~)fgan ized Veterans Club held its f"trst regular meeting of the fall semester Tuesday with Larry Derenberger, president , presiding. Other officers are : David R. Berger vice·president ; William Gallagher, sec­retary ; Thomas Miller, treaswer ; and Roger A. Brady, Master of arms and reporter .

Sportsmanship Trophy Given GSC; Softball Team Defeated In Charleston

The Mayor'sSportsmanship Trophy was won by a Glenville State College softball team this past weekend. GSC was represented in the Sporting In­corporated Invitational Softball Tour­nament held at South Charleston. Larry Lamb's team represented GSC well in the 32-team field by winning two trophies. The two trophies won were the team sportsmanship trophy and the most valuable player award won by Jim Garnett.

The sportsmanship trophy was given on the basis of aU the team's sportsmanlike conduct in the lust game. The teams were voted on by the umpires. Lamb accepted the trophy Monday just before the start­ing of the championship game which was televised on a local Charleston TV station.

Pioneers Set To Invade Tough Shepherd Rams

The Pioneers will travel to Shep­herdstown tomorrow for a game with the Shepherd Rams.

Glenville will be trying for win number one against the Rams who were victorious in their opening game last week, 14·0 over the Bobcats of West V"lJ"ginia Wesleyan.

Shepherd has a new coach this year-Walter Barr , who last year coached James Wood High School to the Virginia State Championship. Barr has the Rams well drilled and they appear to be a tough , pre­cisioned outfit. They are led by the running of a very strong fullback.

Game time is set for 1:30 p.m.

Gary (Deacon) Jones is a three year grid iron veteran at left de­fensive tackle for the Glenville State College Pioneers_

Centennial Series .. .

Glenville State Faculty Members Recall Campus Changes In Past

by Ken Davis

In this Centennial Year Celebr­ation, it is probable that many people will overlook the fac t that Glenville State CoUege is not the same as it was Ln years gone by. Thus it would be njce to try and picture some of the old buildings, landmarks, and tradi­tions which were a part of our campus past.

Miss Bertha Olsen of the Music Oepartment, recalls many happenings from GSC past. Amo~ the things she remembers was the Old Gym, which was located where the present Pioneer Center is now. Also , in the gravel parking lot above the Pres­ident's home was a big white house which was known as the "Vice-Pres­ide nt's ManSion." This house was used as a dormitory when Verona Mapel HaU was too fuU to house all women.

Miss Olsen also remembels how students used to receive their grades. When aU grades had been recorded in the Registrar's office, they were given to the president of the college. He then called each individual stu­dent into his office and gave them their grades. This is a far cry from today's computer system which mails our grades home to ow parents.

As far as the music department was concerned, Miss Olsen served as Its only faculty member for 14 years. Today the total number of members in the MUSIC Department 1$ five ~ Origloally, the music depart­ment was in the present Art rooms, but was moved downstairs when that

part of the Administation Building was remodeled.

Miss Olsen also recalls some of of the landscapes around the college. The Amphitheater used to be a deep ravine covered around the edges with ivy . In the spring, Geroge Firestone had flowers planted around the ra­vine . Also , to the right of the main entrance of the Science Building, there was 'once a fish pond that was shaded by a weeping willow tree.

Dr. Jones, who is an instructor of social scienQe, was once a student at Glenville Jones can recall when he was a student at GSC 'that attend· ance was required at weekly Chapel exercises. He also recalls the begin­ning of the Mercury and the begin­ning of the Student Government Or­ganization.

It was interesting to note, accord­ing to Dr. Jones, that Firestone Lo­dge was built on an old tennis cou.rt in the ooUege apple orchard. Ana: ther building that was built was Clark Hall. which was then the Library. Students and faculty w.ere both in­volved in the "Book Walk" which was in ~he present business office, up to Clark Hall.

As can be seen, Glenville State College has changed over the years.
