MUCH ENJOYED. Elonites Off Their Feet
Lively Playlet Gives An Accurate
Picture of Cox Hall Life.
On Friday night, Nov. 21, one of
the most brilliant features of the
year took place when the Webste
rians opened the doors of their so
ciety hall to the Zatasians.
Anticipation had been running
high for a whole week and the Za
tasians could be heard singing,
"There's a good time coming." And
come it did, for every moment, from
the time they were led to Memorial
Hall, where the program was given.
When all were seated at Memorial
Hall the Websterian Literary Socie
ay was caled to order by the presi
dent, David White, who by his
speech of welcome made every Za
tasian feel at home. Shields Came
ron was appointed critic for the
evening.
The program for the evening be
gan with a lively debate 011 the ques
tion, "Resolved, That Japan should
have Shantung as provided for in
the Peace Treaty at Versailles." John
Dorsett successfully upheld the af
firmative, although Herman Raiford
brought forward some good points
in favor of the negative.
As the second number on the pro
gram, R. A. Lineberry gave a splen-

Lower Classmen Again Victorious
—Final Score 2:1-21
Last Monday afternoon the upper
and lower classmen met for the sec
ond time on Hobbs Athletic Field.
With a strong cheering force of both
boys and girls and two teams each
determined to win, the game starttd
and much "pep" was in evidence.
Carroll pitched her usual steady
game for the Fresh, and Sophs,
while Dixon twirled the ball from
the box for the Juniors and Seniors
with apparent skill.
Many of the players showed mark
ed improvement, but as a whole er
rors were quite numerous, probably
due to the fact that several players
had been shifted to new positions.

Altho the season is not yet over
some mention should be given the

GUILFORD COLLEGE, N. C., NOVEMBER 26, 1919
RICE AND ANDERSON STAR FOR ELON UNABLE TO GAIN THROUGH
GUILFORD. QUAKER LINE.
Coach Doak's eleven Saturday ful
filled the hopes, wishes and expecta
tions of all loyal Guilfordians by
defeating the strong Elon team 7-0.
The Quakers went into the game de
termined to win and succeeded in
carrying that determination to a suc
cessful .termination. Practically the
entire student body of both institu
tions were present *nd added much
to the spirit of the game.
The closeness of the score some
what indicates the nature of the con
test, which was a fight from start to
finish. Elon, however, only once
threatened the Quaker's goal, while
the gods of chance was all that kept
Guilford from scoring four instead
of one touchdown. A wrongly heard
signal at the beginning of the sec
ond quarter, two minutes more to
play at end of it and a forward pass
that started too close from the line
of scrimmage were the Jonahs. We
should worry, though; 7-0 is a win,
so we're not downhearted. Well,
no!
GUilford's touchdown came in the
third quarter as a result of end runs
from Coach Doak's pet shift forma
tion that caught tue Elonites com
pletely off their feet. Dog Rice car
rying the ball across. Smith nego
tiated the kick with ease. For Guil
ford Captain Newlin and White did {
\e mighty consistent ground gain- I
Sng until they were both laid out from
injuries, the former with a broken
collar bone and the latter with a I
sprained ankle. Rice and Stout, who
took their places, however, showed
the old Guilford spirit and with Tre
maine and Raiford running almost
perfect interference they made the
gains that gave us the victory. For
the line Anderson, Cox and Taylor
played stellar ball. The entire line '■
in fact played so well that it is hard I
to pick out just who was the best. ;
Elon was at no time after the first
quarter able to make any consistent
gains thru them. Tremaine used
good headwork as quarter at all
times. Anderson a?so made some
fast gains on his trick end run. For
Elon Pennington, Perry am Mar
lette played tlip best brand of ball.
A crowd of six or seven hundr= 1 j
watched the game rrom HIP sidelines.
The game by quarters follows:
First Quarter.
Guilford kicked to Elon's right
half, who was clowned on 30-yard
line. Elon made three downs thru
the quarter line, but were then
forced to kick. Raiford brought the
ball back to about center of field.
The Quaker backs then made about I
30 yards around the ends and over
tackle, then lost the ball on downs.
Elon then made a few successful for- !
ward passes that took the ball about
2 0 yards into Quaker territory. Guil
ford then got the ball and was mak
ing gains when the whistle blew.
Second Quarter.
The Quakers unlocked an offen
sive that put the ball on the Elon
one-yard line. A wrongly heard sig
nal, however, lost an otherwise sure
goal. Elon punted. Tremaine down
ed on 40-yard line. Guilford ad
vanced the ball to 10-yard line by
straight football before the whistle
blew.
Third Quarter.
Elon kicked to Quakers, who
made first down and then were
forced to kick. Elon lost ground.
Cox blocked a punt, Guilford's ball.
Tremaine unlocked line shift forma
tion that worked ball down field and
across the coveted line. Smith suc
cessfully kicked goal. Elon then re
ceived; made some gains. Last ball
on downs quarter ended with ball in
Guilford's possession.
Fourth Quarter.
Quarter's essayed several forward
passes. Last ball on downs. Elon
failed to make gain. Guilford's ball.
Forward pass Rice to Newlin, who
went for a goal. Illegal. Seesaw
back and forth. Game ended with
ball in Guilfora s possession on

EXHIHITS IVY DEPARTMENT
OK HOME ECONOMICS
The Department of Home Econom
ics has been doing some educational
work in the line of food exhibits for
the past two weeks. The class in
Dietics has been making a study of
dietaries to be adapted to persons of
certain ages and conditions of health.
The diet of the child, from twelve
months to twelve years of age, was
first studied, and typical menus cov
ering a day's allowance were pre
pared and put on exhibit. Foods
and menus for the sick were next
taken up, and exhibitions were made
representing the three kinds of diet,
liquid, semi-liquid and solid, each
covering a period of twenty-four
hours. Among the special diseases
for which dietaries were planned
were tuberculosis, diabetes, dyspep
sia and typhoid fever.
The Department of Home Econom
ics will continue to announce, from
time to time, by means of notices on
the bulletin board in Memorial Hall
exhibits of such a character as may
be of interest and value to the stu
dent body, and the wish is expressed
by this department that students
will respond to any such notices as
opportunity offers.

CAMBRIDGE PLAYERS
PRESENT "THE RIVALS"
( HARMING AND EVER POPULAR
COMEDY PLEASES LARGE
AUDIENCE.
Mrs. Malaprop and Sir Anthony
Keep the House in a Roar
of Laughter.
In Memorial Hall on Saturday
night the Cambridge Players justi
fied the highest expectations in their
interpretation of Sheridan's "Riv
als." Miss Miller as Mrs. Malaprop
probably got the most laughs, both
on account of the humor of the lines
and her inimitable manner of pre
senting. Her curtsies made one wish
for a return of "ye gallant days."
Miss Shaw as Lydia Languish, though
she played her part well, was much
better suited to the part of Lucy
which she played with gay abandon.
The two men in the company, Jess
Coffer and Orville Neuwerth, each
played his parts admirably.
The costumes were a feature of
the play and the quickness with
which the actors changed parts was
a source of wondei. The simplicity
of the scenery reduced scene chang
ing to the absolute minimum and
obviated long waits between acts.
The final scene was marred by the
failure of the lights, but the play
went on without interruption with
the meager lighting of a few flash
lights. Even the unfortunate inci
dent did not dampen the enthusiasm
of the audience.
The play was presented with a

INSPIRING MESSAGE
Miss Elsie It. Heller Talks.
The Thursday evening prayer
meeting of the Y. W. C. A. was given
over to Miss Elsie B. Heller, Student
Secretary of the South Atlantic Field
Division, who visited the Associa
tion the past week.
Miss Heller spoke as follows:
"No nation rises above its woman
hood. I wish this could be a chal
lenge to all Y. W. C. A. girls. The
League of Nations can never be what
it is meant that it shall be without
the home backing it. Woman is the
acknowledged ruler of the home and
school—two of the institutions on
which the state depends. During the
war woman played an important and
indispensable part. She engaged in
and conquered one thousand differ
ent skilled trades that she had never
attempted before.
I wish that you might go with me
to a city Y. W. C. A. and there see
shop giHs who have worked all day
long come to the Y. W. C. A. at
night in order to attend the night
school, or in order to take exercise
in the gymnasium. These girls rea
lize and put into practice the fact
that a healthy body is the chief as
set to true womariTiood. I wish you
might go with he to an industrial
