VOLUME I BASKET BALL SUMMARY In reviewing the basket hall sea son just closed, Guil lord lias made a creditable showing. Al though she lias no great record in the games won slie lias shown up to better advantage than we at first realize. Taking into consid eration the light weight of the team as a whole, the boys have given each time a hard light, and were always much outweighed by their opponents. The team was entirely new, and was laboring under the disadvantage of never having worked together before lliix year. Yet when we begin to calculate the points made, and games won we find that we have made a good showing. We have played nine collegiate games, of which we have won four, thus giv ing us a percentage of .1 14. Guil ford has scored a total of I1 K points against her collegiate riv als to !N 1 points which have been scored against her. In Iwo game series we divided honors with A. & M.. and IClon, and losv both to Trinity. The individual average of play ers also bring out the fact that they have been playing good games. Jones leads with 7N points to his credit in ten games; Wood is second with 00 in eleven games. Next comes l. (iroonie with ~>N points in eleven games, then Se mans with L'S in eleven games, and Ilinkle N in seven games. Smith also scored t points in lield goals in two games, and Price 2 in two games. Wood also made a record of til foul goals, giving hiin a total of 1-1 points, and Smith also secured 5 foul points. Futrell played a good close guard in live games and figured in hold ing down the opponents'score. I >. (iroonie broke into the lineup twice as a substitute, TRACK MEET WITH EI.OX. .Manager 10. A. .Moore, of the track team, lias announced a meet with !•] lon for April 10. and is preparing to produce a good show ing when the time arrives, lie is at a disadvantage because for the past year or so track work has tended to decrease, but there is plenty of material here to develop a strong team. From now on the boys should be at it every after noon, and it will only be by their perisistent ell'orts that we can produce a winning team. Yet if we will work there is no reason why we cannot defeat Flon on April 10. Fvery man interested GUILFORD COLLEGE, N.

IS ASK ET I'.AI.L (i's. At a call meeting of the athletic cabinet Wednesday night the mat ter of presenting "(i's" to the bas ket ball players was discussed. It was found on examination of the by-laws and constitution the pres ent i presented to basket ball players can be worn only on a jersey. After some discussion the mem bers of the cabinet decided that since Guilford lias no football team and basket ball stands next to base ball here they should at least he awarded a i equal to the tenuis (i. The final decision was that a G should be presented to a player after lie has played in five games two of which he shall play in throughout and two of which shall be winning games. This G can be worn on a sweater the same as a base ball (1 as it is now obtained on the same basis. A committee was appointed to draw up an amendment to this ellect and proper steps are now being taken to amend the consti tut ion. "HAVERFORD" vs. "PRINCETON." (Mi Friday night the basket ball girls of the Y. W. (\ A. met at the gymnasium for the first bas ket ball game this term. The llaverford and Princeton teams, as they called themselves, took their places and for several minutes there was hard lighting on both sides, neither making a goal. It seemed that both were evenly matched; finally M. Lassi ter shot a field goal for llaver ford. to be followed with one-by T. Moten for Princeton. At the close of the tirst half the score stood 2 to 2. At the beginning of the second half all went out with the deter mination to win or to make who ever did win work. Soon there was a goal made for llaverford by S. McGehee. I>y swift playing A. .Morris after some good passes shot a field goal. Also 10. Speas a foul goal to be succeeded by an other field goal from A. Morris, now Princeton was in the lead. liit at this time McGehee threw a good field goal for llaverford. There was some hard lighting for the last few minutes. As the ball went back to center for last time it was driven to the Princeton goal and T. .Moten landed it into the basket. The whistle blew and all was over, the score being 0 to !) in favor of Princeton. The lineup was as follows: 11 avertord. I 'rincet on. M.White c Morris S. Mc( ieliee .. . r.f T .Motei M. Lassiter .... I.l' 10. Speas I{. Saunders . . r.g 15. Pjk •I. Hal linger . .1.g... M. Freeman Much interest was added to the occasion by the singing of llaver ford and Princeton songs and a new (iuilford song, which Miss lihoades has just composed. Miss Mary IJrinkley. of Lexing ton, who is in school ;il the Nor mal, spent Sunday with Grace Taylor and Marguerite Tulhill. Mr. T. Fletcher I Julia i'll i. who has been the efficient superin tendent of education of Randolph county for two years, spent Wed nesday night at the college. NUMBER 18 Y. W. C. A. NOTES One of the 1 iiosl cut linsiast ic meetings \vc have had in (lie . \Y. \ A. this term was held Thursday evening; March I. and led by Hazel Armstrong. After (be opening; songs and prayer, several girls read portions of the liible by request of the leader. These were in line with the remarks she made afterward. She mentioned the fact that girls were not as loyal to each other as they might lie; that they often misjudged each other's motives and made unbecoming remarks which often limes hurt. She en couraged us to look for the big things and if we cannot find them refrain from saying anything. In other words, let us all the time be looking out for something good in everybody and we will be sure to find if. And whatever else let us be loyal to each other as students, and friends. This was the regular time for electing ollicers for the Associa tion. T.ie result of the election is as follows: 1 'resident J iope 11ubbard. Vice-President—Floy Lass iter. Secretary lessie Guthrie. Treasurer—Mary Ina Sham burger. These are all strong girls, and with one exception, members of next year's Senior class. We have great hopes for the work as it is taken up by these new ollicers and we wish them much success. We wish to thank ih* girls who played in the basket ball game Friday night for their willing service. We also thank Miss llhoades for her special interest in advertising the game. Ii was given, as many know, in order to help pay expenses in get ling an organ lor the Association hall. We are glad to say that we now have enough to make the purchase and we hope to have it in next week. Y. M. C. A. The President of the Y. M. (\ A. lias secured the promise of the service of KV\.
