We guess the quarantine has pre
vented the girls from getting hair
pins since "little" girls and curls
have come into startling prominence
here of late. It is to be hoped the
quarantine is lifted soon so the pins
can once more be secured!

INSPIRING ADDRESS
(Continued from first page)
itude and thankfulness in some fit
ting way. We as a people need to
acquire more power to sacrifice for
some thing outside and above our
selves. The present call is similar
in some respects to that made by the
Son of Man. It is w call to heal the
broken-hearted, free the captive and
bind up and console all that are
wounded. We have achieved the re
sults for which we entered the war.
Now we have two million men ex
posed to risks, hazards and tempta
tions of all kinds. Can we abandon
them without doing everything pos
sible to help?
Dr. Few said in closing: "We
should gladly share in the opportun
ity to put ourselves into active alli
ance and cooperation in the greatest
movement in human history. Not to
share in this great vnovement argues
inability to respond to the highest
impulses of life."
In this splendid address Dr. Few
maintained his reputation as a speak
er of the first rank. His words made
a profound impression on the stu
dent body.

FRESHMEN WIN INDOOR MEET
(Continued from first page)
The shoe race was won by Macon,
'l9, the invincible champion of for
mer years. The pile of shoes in the
middle of the floor could not com
pletely hid those No. 12 ferry boats
which used to slide over the hills of
Climax. Barrett, '2O, was a close
second.
In the two lip race, D. White. '2O,
and V. Mcßane, '2O, maintained their
undisputed supremity as rag cliew
ers which they won last year and
succeeded in winning again this year
by a big margin. B. L. White, '2l,
and F. Bulla, '2l, took second place.
The defeated contestants for some
reason insisted on continuing this
race even to the "bitter" end.
The potato race called for more
real athletic ability thai; any other.
Eurie Teague, '22, proved to he the
fastest potato picker, while Eula"
Hockett, 'l9, was second. The
Founders representat'ves could do
little in this race as .running after
potatoes had no charms for them.
The sack race was cl > iely contest
j. Rajford, '2l, striking the tape
first, with Meoon. 'l9, a close second
The girls tien claimed the privilege
of a sa'-k race probably on account
of the (pet that they knew better
how to manage this form of apparel
In this Harmon, '22, came first and
Stewart, '2l, second.
In the cracker race Guilford again
THIS GUILtFORDIAN
maintained her reputation fjr pro
ducing some of the aDlest and most
artistic eaters in existence.
Hugh White, last year's champion,
again demonstrated his unparalleled
ability as a masticator, his faint
whistle, indicating that his mouth'
was cleared for action, rousing his
supporters to a frenzied burse of
cheering. Macon, *l9, was second.
In the tug of war the Seniors de
feated the Juniors, the Freshmen de
feated first the Preps, then the Soph
omores and finally the Seniors, thus
giving 1922 the victory. The Seniors
had never before been defeated in
this event.
In the clothes' pin race all tne con
tests were exceedingly close; the
Seniors defeated the Juniors, the
Freshmen defeated the Preps, and
Sophomores and in the final round
the Seniors defeated the Freshman
and so won the event.
Five points were awarded for first
place and 2 for second. On this basis
the Seniors scored 25, the Juniors
11, the Sophomores 23 and the
Freshmen 39.
Prizes were awarded all the win
ners and a "Tiandsome" cup was pre
