showing signs of a pro as he recalls playing

White has a host of honors to his credit.
He played at a command performance for
the Queen of England in 1962 and has per­
formed for four presidents in the White
House. His favorite president was Johnson,
recalling that he was a "real person."
In 1960, White was selected by the
Department of Defense as the best enter­
tainer to tour all combat zones. He has
done 18 shows for troops in Vietnam and
performed for returning POW's.
Today White manages to visit 300 schools
a year and covers up to 2,000 miles a year.
White became world champion in 1962
when he beat Willie Mosconi and in 1970
received an Honorary Degree in Doctor of
Poolology, at the University of Notre Dame.
On all the campuses that White visits he
has been known for his ability to bring
students together and get people to partici­
pate. It was no different this year as over
200 people signed up for the tournament.
"Jack is very involved with students and
in getting them involved," said Hallie Brown,
activities director for ASG. "He does not
cost much in comparison for what he does
for the students."
"He seems really interested in the students
and that helped make the tournament a
success." said Gene Machul, a CCC student.
When all the play-offs were over first
place in men's division went to Neil Sparga
and Janis Bever won first place in women's
division.

Why can’t people be like the sea,
Who has a definite rhythm,
Not like me, who’s always up and down.
The sea knows where it’s been
And where it’s going.
When times are troubled,
Why can’t I be like the sea,
Going calmly to and fro.
