Frontiersmen Seek New LaurelsThe Niagara County Community College Basketball Fron-

tiersmen will journey to Troy, tomorrow for the start of the NCAARegionals hoping to continue a victory-packed season. They havetop competition, but stand a good chance to finish the season thenext weekend in Hutchinson, Kan. at the NCAA Nationals.

The four top-seeded teams are the expected finalists, andNCCC is one of the top four. Other top teams include Leicestercf Massachusetts; Broome Tech., a Empire State Conferenceteam, and Johnson and Wales of Providence, Rhode Island. Theseteams will not play each other in the quarter-finals on Thursdaynight. Four games are on tap that night, with two the next, andthe finals on Saturday. The Frontiersmen have their work cut outfor them, but they also have the team that can win.

A balanced attack, and a stingy defense have characterizedFrontiersmen's play this season, and statistics bear this out. Alopsided victory over Little Three rival Alfred Tech, gave theFrontiersmen the Conference championship and the right to playat Troy. This game demonstrated the type of game we've played allseason, and shows why we rate the role as one of the favoritesin the Regionals.

The Frontiersmen have one or two players who lead in manystatistical departments, but all the players are close, so no singleplayer dominates all the play. John Fuerch is the team leadingscorer with a 16.3 average and a 47.5 shooting percentage through25 games. Behind him arc Dave Lampman and Jim Freeney with12.8 and 12.0 averages respectively. Lampman leads in rebound-ing with 10.5 bounds a game followed by Fuerch with a 9.5 aver-age. Trailing Fuerch in the percentage show are Larry Martinwith a 48.7 percentage and Lampman shooting at 47.7 clip.

Fuerch leads in total points with 408 points again followedby Lampman and Freeney in the same order with 334 and 301points. However, Lampman has his points through 26 games,while the other two have theirs through 25. Freeney is the leadingfree thrower making 41 out of 51 for a 80.4 percentage. Jon Rothis second with 15 out of 1 for a high 88.2 rate in 20 games.

These boys lead in the major categories, but where would theteam be without player, like Dennis Rose and John Angclo, andothers who play in almost every game. This seems to prove thebalance of attack and the bench strength the Frontiersmen haveshown all season. All the players will have to do is continue alongthese lines and a Regional victory should be forthcoming. Thisis not as easy as it sounds, and only by exceptional play can thisbe achieved, but as we've said all along, the team has the talentand ability and if possible, some student backing in Troy wouldhelp the team show their talent. Best of luck to Coach Roy Som-iikt and his team.

Shrdlu...By Richard D. Keil

Recently, all graduate studentdeferments, except for medical stu-dents, were revoked by the Selec-tive Service. Although this actiondoes not affect Niagara Commun-ity College students, the continualshortening of deferments eventual-ly could.

No doubt many of our female stu-dents frequently hear the termdraft, but many many not be ac-quainted with its meaning. It is nota cold rush of air that filters upyour legs causing chills to run upyour spine, although it does causethe same reaction in most males.

There are only so many defer-ments available and these are rap-idly dwindling away. I question howlong students in undcrgradu-at e programs will remainexempt from the draft. ALso, if warshould be declared in Vietnam orKorea all deferments would be al-most Immediately cancelled.

Vice President Hubert H. Humph-rey urging draft-law revision said,"It's the non-student that reallygets rooked in this one and reallygels hooked up."

It's every citizen's duty to servehis country in defense but thereShould be some provisions madefor serving the country outside ofthe service.

There has been recent talkaround campus that the junior col-lege deferments will be next in linefor elimination. Although, there is

no proof of this rumor it seemsfeasible our deferments would bedropped before those of four-yearcollege students.

When is the last time you wentto church?

This question has been asked ofcollege students with increasingfrequency over the past decade, andwith due course. Parents are con-stantly wondering where is our re-ligion.

In the past decade there havebeen radical changes in the policyof most churches especially theCatholic church.

Paradoxically, however, there isa youthful religious impulse, and itis showing up in certain ways, morestrongly than ever before in con-versational 00066 bouses, in boom-ing enrollment in college courses inreligion, in social action projectsand in free wheeling kinds of wor-ship.

The college courses both theextent of the classes offered andthe enrollment in them havespread *videly since World War 11,and accelerated since 19(50.

A survey by Dr. Milton D. Mc-Lean of Ohio State University of135 public universities and collegesshowed 40 of them have depart-ments for majors in religion, while47 others offer extensive courses inthe field.

NCCC Gals Prefer Longer Skirts

Woe: Mini-skirts InMinority at NCCC

. . . Seven off ten want them f-o-n-g-e-r !

Seven out of ten NCCC girls still prefer a longer skirt, butthe others have their own reasons for wearing mini-skirts andthe boys seem to agree.

Three attractive students who prefer the mini-skirt are Bar-bara Fingold and Christine Sully, both LA freshmen, and SharonHill, LA sophomore. All three girls agreed the short skirts weremore attractive on them, and so more attractive to boys.

Barbara doesn't think all girlsshould wear them. "They don'thave the leg! for them," she said.

'AH the elotht'S that are nicelooking are short." reasoned Chris-tine, while Sharon added, "They'rein style and you usually wear whatguys like; and guys like them."

She is right, according to BillFreeman, LA sophomore, who said,"They're more attractive. Girlslegs are always the part I look atfirst."

Bil Milliard, LA freshman, thinks"Itt depends on the girl. If she looksnice, • she definitely should wearone. It seems to enhance her beau-ty."

Stated Joseph Szczerbrwski, ETfreshman, "She looks better thanshe would if she covered every-thing up."

Mini-skirts and winter weathercould be a dangerous thing, but thegirls resolve this problem by wear-ing stockings and high boots.

With such positive attitudes andgirls like these to wear them, itwould seem the mini-skirt is hereto stay.
