Mississippi State will be Auburn’s opponent.The student body has always shown its interest in basketball through the large' number of students who have attended the games.The enthusiasm and loyalty of Auburn students for their basketball team last season was unsurpassed by any school.However, on certain occasions students have been careless in following the house rules of the sports arena; the two major infractions being smoking in the building and walking on the basketball court. These rules were made by those in charge of the building and were made in hopes of preserving the life of the arena. Observe them. %At a recent meeting of the SEC basketball coaches, a discussion was held concerning the conduct of students at games. Commissioner Bernie Moore urged each coach to cooperate in bringing about a higher quality of basketball relationships between schools.Coach Danny Doyle, Auburn’s hgad ba$- ' ketball coach, has requested tftSt^ie sftfe dents of this school, treat the members of the opposing teams “as if they were visitors in your own home.”Booing either the officials or members of the opposing team is poor sportsmanship and reflects on the school. Holler your head off for Auburn, but respect the decisions of the officials, and show consideration for players shooting free throws, regardless as to which team they represent. If students obey these rules, they will be fostering the true Auburn Spirit and will be helpful in bringing better basketball to the South.
