tl19621130-000 "Towson Wins 1st M-D Cross-Country Crown Towson State won its first Mason-Dixon cross-country title last week in the 21st annual Championship meet. The Tigers edged Old Dominion by a scant three points, 68 to 71. The Towson ace, Jeff Glover, emerged as the in-dividual champion when he outsprinted the best of the Old Dominion staff, George Green. Glover, who went through the entire season of seven dual meets, the Loyola Invitational, and the exciting twelve team Championships without a defeat, romped over the 3.2-mile Bridgewater course in 15:37 Which is a scant 17.1 seconds off the course record.

Bob Stephens brought the gold-and- white colors over the mark with a fine fourteenth place finish. The other two Towson scorers were Fran Hartman at 16:49 and Rick Ulmer at 16:52. The meet marked the first time in history that the Tigers had five men complete the distance in less seventeen minutes. The remaining Towson entrees, Dave Evans and Hugh Towsend, came close to the seventeen 'mark with 17:09 and 17:16 times, both creditable performances. Mount Saint Mary's and Lynchburg trailed the two top squads with point totals in the 90's. Tiger coach Robert Mel-ville was quietly proud of his boys. ""Good hard work and fine team spirit won it for us,"" the coach said. ""It was a great team effort."" Early in the year, Melville announced that he hoped to see the team work into top shape about the time of the Invita-tional so they would be ready for their finest effort when the chips were down. The good planning and hard work paid off as the Tigers romped off with both the Loyola trophy and the M-D. It was Towson's greatest season, cli-maxed by their greatest victory in the grueling cross-country sport. SEA Speaker Dec. 6 3:15 p.m. Sp.

SGA Kills Fund Grants; 'Tigers' Becomes Official After a delay of 25 minutes, Sob Highsmith, SGA president, 5Pened the Senate meeting at 1:40, Tuesday, Nov. 20. An Unanticipated faculty meeting in tephens 220 displaced the SGA enators and officers into the hallway until their meeting room ��'as cleared. When the meeting got under- Way, it was suggested that the (3ritroversia I WRC grant for 11/ money and a $350 budget llotment for the FAC be re- :.�onsidered. Both organizations ad their requests approved at lie previous Senate meeting. Highsmith explained that the allotments had been granted on a majority vote of the Senators present at the meeting. To pass both motions, a majority vote of the 73 Senators on roll was required. Therefore, both grants were null and void. Paul Swank then moved that the Senate reconsider the allot-ments and place them on the afternoon's agenda. The motion was voted on and denied, thus killing both grants and their further discussion. Also at this meeting, Dr. Arnold Blumberg was voted assistant faculty adviser for Senate this year. Lou Winkelman moved that Towson sportsmen be officially known as the Tigers. The motion was unanimously carried. All selections of each judge will be hung. There will be no awards or prizes given, and no work will be singled out. Eric Miller, chairman of the fine arts committee, stated that the contest was fantastically more success-ful than he had thought it would be. ""To date, we have fifty-five entries,"" he exclaimed, ""and by this evening we'll probably have more."" At five o'clock, Tuesday evening, there were over sixty entries submitted. One point of confusion about the show was the title displayed in the Student Centre. The title, ""Holiday Art,"" originally meaning the season during which the art was ex-hibited, apparently gave rise to a great deal of confusion as to what type of art exhibit this would be, so the name of the exhibit has been changed to ""Fine Art for Homes, Interiors, or Offices."" The works of art, in accordance with contest rules, will be for sale, and inquiries concerning sales may be made to the Gallery or to the individual artist. The exhibit will open Sunday, Dec. 2, at 2:30. Coffee and light refreshments will be served from 2:30 until 4:30. The show will run from Dec. 2 through Jan. 15. Joseph DeFontes Towson's Alert Security Squad Guards Campus Does the Towson student feel secure? Does he wonder whether people really care about him? Don't expect this article to psycho-analyze the student body. However, it is important to know that every student on campus should feel secure. Towson is continually guarded by four night watchmen and two campus policemen. Watchmen Raymond Hecker James Kozak, Ott Todd, and R. S. Gray check every building throughly more than once a day.
