Possible Harm In Fighting
Committee Ruling
ACCEPT DECISION
Authorities Here To Wage
Battle For Change In
NCHSAA Constitution
ACCEPT DECISION
BY EDWARD SACHS
Star Sorts Editor

New Hanover High school will not
take any further action in protest
of the North Carolina High School
Athletic associations eligibility
committee ruling that the local
schools use of Johnnie McKoy in
a game with Raleigh High school,
Jan. 10, was a branch of Eastern
conference eligibility rules.
Principal T. T. Hamilton, in an
nouncing in behalf of the school, the
decision late yesterday afternoon,
told the Star, 1--WE feel that no good
and possibly some harm would re-
suit to the good reputation of New
Hanover High school if we sought
to fight the action of the eligibility
committee.
Can Be Overruled
''While it is a matter of record
that the executive secretary Of the
association, c. E. Mcintosh gave
US permission to use McKoy, it is
apparent that his permission can
be over-ruled by the eligibility
committee.
"Our alternative of taking the
matter to the association executive
committee would probably result
in their upholding the eligibility
committee decision, and even if
they reversed the decision, under
the constitution of the association,
the eligibility committee can not
be reversed by the executive COM
mittee."
On Both Committees
Further weakening the presenta-
ton of the local case would be the
fact that six members of the eligi-
bility committee also sat on the
13-man executive committee. They
included C. R. Joyner of Winston
Salem, Mcintosh, Curtis Grissman
of Pittsboro, J.. A. Gerow of Bur-
lington, T. H. Cash, ST., of Win
ston Salem, and Lee Stone of Ra-
leigh, the latter having been quot
ed in Raleigh newspapers before
the decision to the affect that he
believed the use of McKoy was
violation Of conference rules.
