THE GUILFORDIAN
VOLUME IV.
Y. W. C. A. SUMMARY
The regular devotional service of
the Y. W. C. A. gave place Thurs
day evening, April 4, to the installa
tion of new officers. A beautiful and
impressive initiation service marked
the retiring of the six Senior mem
bers of the cabinet, and the induc
tion into office and positions on the
cabinet of the girls in whose hands
the work of the next year is left.
The retiring cabinet was seated in
a semi-circle near the front of the
room and the service began with the
repetition by the whole Association
of the .purpose of the Y. W. C. A. as
given in the constitution. It was
especially fitting that this purpose be
reasserted at the beginning of the
new year—that the new administra
tion see the need of adopting as their
own the aim "to unite the women of
the institution in loyalty to Jesus
Christ, to lead them to accept Him
as their personal Savior, to build
them up in the knowledge of Christ,
especially thru Bible study and
'liristian service, that their charac
ter and conduct may be consonant
with their belief."
Then each retiring officer gave a
brief report of iier year's work, and
outlined the duties of her depart
ment, after which she announced her
successor who took her place at the
table. Miss Lewallen, chairman of
the Bible study committee, was suc
ceeded by Miss Vera Mcßane; Miss
Moton, social chairman, by Miss
Bird; Mits Raiford, of fie devotional
committee, by Miss Neece; Miss Col
trane, president-elect, resigned her
position on the cabint to Miss Fran
cs Moore; Miss Brown, secretary and
publicity chairman, to Miss Clodfel
ter and Miss Madge Coble; Miss Mor
ris, treasurer, to Hockett, and
President Pike to Miss Coltrane.
i'ho the cabinet is wuh the excep
tion of its president, inexperienced,
there is cause to believe that it will
do earnest and effective work.
In a brief but comprehensive re
port, Miss Pike reviewed the work
of the year just closed, while admit
ting that much of it was incomplete,
and in some respects successful, she
stated very concisely some things the
departments had done. She men
tioned the inspirational president's
council held at Guilford in the spring
of last year, and the help visiting
secretaries and speakers had given
her cabinet, which the preceding
president had organized on a depart
mental basis.
Among the outstanding events of
the year. Miss Pike mentioned the
contribution to die Students' friend
ship war fund, the social service
work for invalid soldiers in France,
and the contributions from the an
nual play and bazaar to the Red
Cross. She expressed her gratitude
to the advisory committee for much
sympathy and help, and to the mem
bers of her cabinet for their earnest
co-operation. She closed with an
expression of the sincere .pleasure
she had received from hor work and
to t'he new administration she ex
tended her hearty good wishes for a
happy and a successful year of Asso
ciation work.

IT.l T . N. C. 7, Guilford O.
The University of North Carolina
baseball team on March 20 defeated
the team from Guilford College by
a score of 7 to 6. Except for one bad
inning for each team it was a close
and interesting game. The bad
frame was the fifth, when Carolina
pushed across all the seven rune
which they made during the game.
During this fatal inning ten men
came to bat for Carolina, seven safe
ties being registered, three of them
being for an extra base. Aside from
this Zachary pitched a beautiftil
game of ball, allowing only three
hits, all of them being singles, strik
ing out seven, and issuing no passes.
No two of the three hits came in the
same inning.
Jack Powell pitched a good game
PROGRESSES.
THE SEASON
for Carolina. He, too, had one bad
inning, in which Guilford shoved
four men over, two errors mixed
with three hits doing the work. At
other times he was steady and kept
Guilford's hits well scattered.
How the Runs Were Made.
In the last half of the third Bal
linger opened for Guilford with a
single to left and Pox was safe at
first on an error by Cordon, Newlin
was out, third to first and both run
ers advanced a base. Marlette drew
a pass, crowding the bases and Zach
ary knocked one through second,
scoring Ballinger. Johnson follow
ed with a single to left and Fox and
Marlette came home. Johnson going
to second on the throw in, scoring
when Gordon fumbled Reddick's
grounder.
In the fourth Guilford pushed
across another when Fitzgerald sin
gled and came home on Ballinger's
double to deep center. Again in the
eighth Guilford made one. Johnson
reached second on Pippin's error,
went to third when Reddick was out,
third to first, and tallied on "Dick"
Boren's drive.

LEADERSHIP
THROUGH SERVICE
Forceful Message Delivered to V. SI.
C. A. by Sirs. Hobbs.
The Thursday evening prayer
meeting was in charge of Mrs.
Hobbs. She is always gladly heard,
and her words are not soon forgot
ten, She talked on the subject of
"Leadership Thru Fellowship."
Whatever Mrs. Hobbs may have to
say is always said with absolute sin
cerity. Her messages are practical.
Whatever we are, leaders or fol
lowers, we must have the idea of fel
lowship. We must not feel as if
there is a line of demarcation among
people. The more we can do for
people just as they are, and just
where they are, the better it will be.
Jesus, a man among men, considered
no line of demarcation. He over
stepped social customs as he found
them, and helped not his disciples
alone, but all. We should bear in
mind that we do things that reach
everybody. We cannot live apart
from the rest of the world.
One requisite for leadership thru
fellowship is a knowledge of the
things about us. Jesus well ac
quainted with the things about him.
He was a fisher, a carpenter, a farm
er. In fact he knew enough about
all vocations to be able to converse
intelligently with men wherever he
found them. He used illustrations
from every-day life to impress great
truths upon his hearers. In other
words he was so acquainted with the
affairs of every day life thac hie life
was interlinked with those about
him. He realized and taught that
there is something of infinite value
in every one. He recognized men as
human beings. The reason he was
so gladly hoard was that he was aole
to speak to people' 6 conditions.
There was an element of love in his
denunciations and scathing words,
whenever occasions called them
forth. He knew the people and the
conditions and was able to meet
them. This is essential to leader
ship.
Jesus did not pose as a leader, but
as a teacher. We ought always to
be teachable. We must, at all times,
be willing to learn from those about
us. We never get to the point where
we cannot be taught more. Let us
not seem to be sufficient within our
selves. We must just get right down
among the people with whom we are
thrown; we must be willing to serve
them; we must be willing to learn
from them, and all this because they
are just people and because we love
hem. Without this element of love
for our fellowman, and unless we
are willing to recognize human be
ings a such and see within them
of infinite value, we will
not be able to help usher in the king
dom of God which is a kingdom of
self-sacrifice and self-denial.
