Midland Athletic Director Don Watchorn sees the physical education department's contribution to the college program as an integral part of the student's educational experience. I think the lessons of dedication and self discipline learned on the athletic field have great carry over value into the classroom situation.” Watchorn sets forth this theory in one phrase ''Interscholastic athletics.” We feel we have a lot to sell the student athlete at Midland,” said Watchorn speaking of his recruiting policy. Midland is an outstanding educational institution with a lot of tradition and a well rounded athletic program.” In this area, the midwest, we have the advantage in recruiting the high school athlete but wherever students are interested in Midland that is where we will recruit,” Watchorn said Warrior athletes this year came from over eight states and the District of Columbia. Discussing intramural activities the athletic director indicated that if students show an interest in other activities for intramural play other than those already offered it would be set up. Basically and historically the intramural program was developed by the student and we would expand on it if the need were shown. Even a club type activity could be developed if an interest were shown It would be another approach to the student recreation program,” the coach said

Starting the season with five mem- bers, the final meet saw new head coach Butch Hug's cross country team dwindle to two. With five men needed for team com- petition, Midland could not compete in team standings after junior Vernon Banks dropped from the team for basketball workouts. In the last meet of the year, the Ne- braska Intercollegiate Athletic Con- ference run, freshmen Ron Hankel and Dave Olson finished eighth and 17th respectively. Hankel was Midland's top finisher throughout the 3—1 dual season. At UNO's hilly Elmwood Park Golf Course, site of the NIAC District II meet, Hankel placed 25th over the five mile distance. Olson was on Hankel's heels in most meets and added the 1—2 punch Mid- land needed. Senior Joe Onstott and freshman Tom Minear added depth to a successful Midland squad.
