THE ANNUAL HIGH SCHOOL SCHOOL DECLAMATION AND RECITATION CONTEST The Annual High School Declama tion and Recitation Contest will be given in Memoiial Hall. April 23. This contest is given under the aus pices of the four literary societies, of the college. Two medals will be given; one to the winning girl con testant. and one to the boy winning out in the declamation contest. Guilford College was the first in stitution in North Carolina to make provisions for such a contest between representatives from the different high schools of the state. Other In stitutions have followed Guilford's example. It is the intention of those in charge of the contest to make the year's contest include more high schools than any previous contest. It has been the custom to invite high schools from adjoining counties only, to send representatives. This year the invitations will reach out over a beggar territory, to the counties of the state more remote from Gulford County. Th'e college co-operates with the literary societies by giving the high school contestants and their teachers free entertainment during their stay on the campus.

'throughout the entire game the visitors kept the score near ly tied, and at the end of the first half the locals team lead by a margin of only three points. Although out weighted (several pounds) to man the Quakers by superior team work were able to register the nine points which entitled them to the game. For Guilford Captain Frazier was the outstanding star of the game. J. W. Frazier also played stellar ball, and Lindley succeeded in dropping seven out of thirteen through the basket from fouls. Deal for N. C. State commanded the most attention. The regular cen ter of neither of the two teams was able to be in the game. Both are on the hospital list. At no time did the outcome seem doubtful. Although hard pressed at times, the local team always increas ed the lead just when the visitor.-? had visions of winning the game. Line up. N. C. State—Deal. rf.; Williams.

C. State, the Quaker basketball squad left in high spirits for a two-game trip to Davidson and Charlotte.
