James P. Morgan.
i'ne purpose oi this organi
zation IS to attord students
an opportunity to learn con
trol, loyalty, and honesty
among students; to transact
ousmess pertaining to tne
student body; to Keep all so
cial liie on a nign piane and
to nave it always in narmony
witn unristian living, ii^acn
student enrolled in tne col
lege, including day - stu
dents, automatically oecomes
a member oi tnis organization
and snail be neid responsioie
lor all regulations.
Tne memoers of the exec
utive council are composed oi
a president, a vice president,
a secretary and treasurer, re
presentatives of eacn unit of
bcudents living in tne dormi
tories, representatives oi eacn
unit of day students, repre
sentatives lor Doys, and repre
sentatives trom tne sopno-
more and fresnman classes at
large. I'nis council meets
twice a montn to discuss pro
blems and general business,
it brings these decisions be-
lore tne student body lor its
approval and opinion about
proDiems.
i.ne Discipline Committee
is composed of five students,
cnosen trom the council by
tne student body. Tney near
tne cases of students wno
nave broken the rules and de
cide wnat penalty to impose.
As all tnings nave a oegin-
nmg, so our student Govern
ment has its beginning, and a
constitution had Ip be writ
ten. Last year a committee of
council members witn tne lielp
of tne Dean of Women and
tlie advice of President El
liott, collected the material
and wrote a constitution. An
other group planned a hand-
Dook stating all permisisons,
rules, regulations, and other
necessary information c o n -
cerning the social life on the
campus. This hand-book was
published and presented to all
ireshmen and incoming stu
dents this year.
We are glad to have the
day students as a part of our
organization this year, and it
is our wish that they feel as
much a part of campus ac
tivity as the dormitory stu
dents.
The officers for this year
were elected last spring by the
student body. They were as
follows: president, Bernice
McMurry of Lawndale, N. C.;
vice - president, Dorothy
Franklin of Valdese, N. C.;
and secretary, J. T. Jones, Jr.

each other. Those appointed

G.-W. Grid Team Defeats Cliffside 26-14 W. A. A. ELECTS
OFFIfFRS
On Thursday, November 2, Gardner-Webb’s Bulldogs
traveled to Cliffside for their first football game of the year
with the all star team of that city. Our boys slightly out
weighed their opponents and used that fact to a good ad
vantage. They concentrated chiefly upon the ground, us-

Gardner-Webb To
Have Basketball
Yes, there’s going to be a
regular basketball team at G.
W. this year, and from all ap
pearances it will be an excep
tionally good one. Just the
fact that last year’s regulars
Sam Greene, Jr. and J. T.
Jones, Jr. are back, makes ev
ery one smile just a little for
they both tower above six
leet. Also back from last year
are small but fast Eugene
Hoyle, Hilton Hamrick, and
another “six footer,” Earl
iowery. There are a number
of promising newcomers that
have been cited already. Many
of these will develop alter
regular practice begins, but at
the present candidates tor a
possible first team berth seem
to be Jack Hoyle, /leno Crump,
Carl Jolley, Welford Ramsey,
and Finley Fox.
The college has secured the
services of B. E. “Pop” Sim
mons of Mooresboro as coach,
and I think that we all agree
that we are very, very lucky.
Thanks to our ever present
benefactor, the Cle v e 1 a n d
Cloth Mills, Inc., we will play
on a beautifully sanded, var
nished, and polished floor and
the gym, also sports a hand
some new furnace. It is hoped
that by the time this article
is published that Coach Sim
mons will have already called
the first practice.
Pat Sumner and the two so
phomore representatives at
large were Colleen Hill and
Mary Grace Queen.
Backed by our president the
Dean of Women and the fac
ulty, we feel that we will have
a successful year.
HOW TO BUILD
THE CHURCH
1. Be in your place unless
prevented by some reason,
which you can conscientiously
give to your Lord and Master.
2. Pray before you come
to the church.
3. Pray as you are seated in
the church.
4. Never engage in any
conversation or act after en
tering the church, which will
tend to divert your thoughts,
or thoughts of others, from
worship.
5. During the period of
meditation thank God for the
Sunday school, and the Train
ing Union and pray his bless
ings upon them.
6. Never carry what you
think to be the faults of any
of the members, away from
the church. If tempted to do
so, look around and see some
beautiful soul, whose life is
a benediction to you.
7. Attend the Wednesday
night prayer meeting.
8. During the week call upon
at least one member of the
congregation and speak with
him about his soul’s salvation.
9. Pray for your pastor
every day.
10. Tithe. Bring your of
fering in the envelope each
Sunday.
For three successive nights
the new and proud father had
walked the floor with the
baby. Desperate, the next eve
ning he brought home a bottle
of soothing syrup. His wife
said, “Why, John, that will
kill the baby.” John replied,
“Do not worry, I brought it
home not for the baby but
for myself.”
