Beck handpickedhis assistants based on theirbackground and knowledge of sports.The job was time-consuming. On anaverage night, each assistant wouldsupervise about three games, andperhaps four or five on Saturdays.Knapp found that having his eveningsfull helped him to organize his time,however, and did not believe that itinterf~red much with his studies.Self-discipline and money were twobenefits of the job, according toKnapp, but he stated that the greatestbenefit was in getting to know themany people involved in the program."Y ou meet people in other clubs - itbreaks down the club barriers," hesaid._ Sherry DanielKelly Layne Samuel - Roge~vi1le, MOJay Douglas Sanders - Cedar Vale, K5Michael Gregory Sansom - Pensacola, FLMichael Kyle Savage .
