It goes without saying that the Guilfordian has been and will ever be found ready to lend its aid in furthering all Ibranches of college athletics, impartial to kind or char acter, and we know that any sug gestion made thru its columns should be taken as the best judgment of a paper whose first and cardinal prin ciple is cleanliness before victory. This is the prelude to a kind but emphatic statement we wish to make. Recently the unsportsmanlike con duct of some prospective basketiball players has been made so pro nounced that its shocking manifes tation boiled the blood of Guilford manhood and left the stamp of foul play upon the dignity of College tra dition. Such outrages demand drastic treatment by the Athletic cabinet. It is such instances as these that vio late Guilford's highest ideals, and tend to blot her record of clean sportsmanship. That such action will not be tolerated by the student body is self-evident from their con- damnatory attitude following this recent deplorable occasion. We do not wish to be personal or to single out any one of the several violations of manly conduct but the injury dealt out to a Junior by a first year man in an annual class game should debar the offender from all athletics until a different attitude is manifest ed. Guilford has a standard of fair play in all her athletics and all who come within her walls must observe this standard if they wish to wear her colors. LETTERS TO GUILFORDIAN. (Nothing under this head is neces sarily endorsed by the Board or any member.) YES, IT IS I. I wish to indorse every word of "Is it You?" in the last issue of the Guil fordian. However, whatever may have ibeen the fate of "Teddy" and his party. I am still a firm believer in a square deal; and this, I am inclined to think, the young imen did not get in the above named article. I have contended and still contend that it was decidedly partisan—not political ly, but socially—in that it is decided ly unjust to the young ladies since it does not give them their proportional part of criticism when compared with that so generously dealt out to young men. Hence, I will endeavor to be strictly non-ipartisan. It is true that there are rude ooys on the campus and doubtless will be "till nature calls the show down." To these I will only say "get wise while yet you may" for the time is coming when you will have to pay the bill. But it seems to me that there are some of the fairer sex who could improve on their manners. No one will question for a moment the fact that there are those on the hill who delight in "swiping" masculine paraphernalia. Is this mannerly or lady like or chivalrous or cowardly or bravery, or what? I leave it for you to say. Then again there are those who are so everlastingly modest that if you were to bow to the ground when passing them on the walk they would only turn aside "with a castiron grin." Is it any wonder that boys run their hands deeper in their trous ers pocket in the vain hope to get out of sight? Any one who knows only the primary laws of society is aware of the fact that it is a lady's duty to recognize a gentleman before he speaks to her. Then, too, think of young men per forming such obeisance to young women in this great and glorious day —the eve of universal suffrage— when the women are the equals of men in every respect. Already many are donning men's attire (and wiould like to smoke a choice cigar). Then why should a red-blooded man bow and scrape to them? Is there not some better way in which he can display his chivalry? I rather think there is. Here's to social as well as political equality.
