Elon To Play Quakers,
Bears In Home Gaines
SETTING SNAPPY PACE IN ELON BAND MANEUVERS
The Christian grid squad, which ;
thrilled alumni and students aliite'
with the smashing victory over.
Catawba, ha; two more home
games this season. The gridders
go to Cullowhee this weekend to!
tactile the Western Carolina eleven
and then return for successive j
home Kame.s against Guilford and j
Lenoir Rhyne. !
The Guilford game, which is|
set for Saturday. November 6th. in
the Burlington Memorial Stadium. [
will mark the thirty-second an- j
nual battle between the Christians!
and Quakers. It i^ the oldest foot
ball rivalry on the Elon schedule,
dating back to 1919 when foot-
ball was begun on a continuous
basis at Elon.
The rivalry with Lenoir Rhyne
began two years later than did
the annual meetings with Guil
ford, and the Christian-Bruin ser
ies Is the second oldest in Elon's
football annals. The Elon-Lenolr
Rhyne game is set for Saturday,
November 13th.
Elon holds the edge on both the
Quakers and Bears in number of
games won. The Christians have
chalked 18 victories against 10 de
feats in the Guilford series, with
three games ending in ties. Against
the Bears the Elon eleven has won
14 games while losing 11 Contests,
but Elon can show no victory over
Lenoir Rhyne since World War IL
A revenge motive will play a
big part in the Elon play against
Guilford in the next home game,
for the Quakers have upset Elon
for the past three seasons in a
row. Scores of all Elon-Guilford
games played since 1919 are given
below:

There are now only a few weeks

Walker and Cox were majorettes last year, but Bula is in her first

Prof. Hedgpeth has announced
that he expects to form a Madrigal
group sometime in the near future.
The group will consist of eight to
twelve music majors and will fol
low the Sixteenth Century Eng
lish practice of singing around a
table.
The Madrigal is that form of
^lecular song for several voices in
combination, which was first in
troduced by the Flemish compos
ers in Italy toward the middle of
ihe Sixteenth Century and was
brought to full development in the
same century as the normal type
of secular folk song.
During this century there were
no public concerts, the perform
jnce of secular music being limited
to private presentation in the
liome. After supper the mistress
.if the house gave out the party
books and called upon the guests
to join with the family in singini;
.Madrigals.

Joe Morri.s: Bernard, were you
ever in a band?

The Elon band, in the midst of
I rejuvenation program under the
lirection of Prof. Lawrence Hedg-
)eth, made its initial appearance

Homecoming parade and at the

had marched in the Homecoming'
parade, and it offered a snappy
Appearance in its white and gold
uniforms. The band will also furn
ish music for the basketball games

DIGGING WITH DOUG
(Continued From Page Three)
Theos hear their names blasted
forth frequently on the P.A. micro
phones, and it Is well at this point
to urge the spectators to take a
look at the line play as the ball
is snapped. The action is often
much more interesting up there
than it is in the backfield.
We have mentioned only a few
of those who contribute to Elon’s
fine football play each autumn
Saturday nite, but there are oth
ers who work their hearts out each
afternoon, each doing his part to
bring us the great game of foot
ball. And last, but not least, this
department wishes to take the
hat off to the very capable mentor
of the Fighting Christians, Coach
Sid Varney, who is doing an ex
cellent job in his second season
at the tiller of the Elon band
wagon.
One cannot be sure how
effect “Gone With The Wind' has
had on the writing of other bo,'a
concerning the Civil War period
but it seemed that when Margare'
Mitchell’s book first appeared that
much Interest was manifest in the
people and events of that time
Now, since “Gone With The Wind”
has been revived, other Civil ffar
books in both fiction and seriom
vein have appeared.
Among fine recent books on th«
period are Eaton Clement’s "His.
tory of the Southern Confederacy"
a carefully documented and fas.
cinating history that shows the
devasting &ect of war on human
society. Other books have dealt
only with military or political his-
tory of the Confederacy, but this
book includes both and adds an
account of economic and cultural
life in the South.
James Horan’s “Confederate
Agent” is truly thrilling reading,
telling the astonishing story of a
great Confederate conspiracy,
masterminded by Captain Thoma
H. Hines, which almost destroyed
the Union from within. It is a story
never told before. Also interesting
is Ishbel Ross’s “Rebel Rose," the
life of Rose O’Neal Greenhow, a
famous woman spy for the Soutli.
Of special interest to Elon stud
ents are two articles, written re
cently by Dr. Horace H, Cunning
ham, of the Elon faculty. One is
entitled “Confederate General
Hospitals” in The Journal of
Southern History, and the other is
"Organization and Administration
of Confederate Medical Depart
ments” in the North Carolina His
torical Review. Both magazines
are in the library magazine racks.
