In Marion Virginia Guy Dutton, a 66 year old with a long history as a sports statistician, is the trusted voice behind Marion High School games. He learned on the job, never had formal lessons, and his memory spans baseball, basketball, and Little League. He recalls a near West Virginia coal camp choice and looks forward to the 1981-82 Marion basketball season.

Luck Is Keynote Speaker For WVU At National Honor Banquet
West Virginia University quarterback Oliver Luck served as keynote speaker for ten scholar athletes honored at the 24th annual National Football Foundation and Hall of Fame banquet in New York. The Waldorf Astoria event drew 1,500 attendees including WVU President E. Gordon Gee and Gov. Jay Rockefeller. Luck, a top passer with a 3.96 academic average, will take Rhodes Scholarship exams next week in Charleston. He urged that athletes succeed on field and in classroom amid concerns over academic scandals and degree integrity in college sports. Rockefeller called the award a high honor for Oliver and for West Virginia.
