Grady Mcßane. Much has been said and written at Guilford in regard to "pep." We have listened to our cheer leaders as they have called for volunteers to help cheer our teams on to victory. We have read editorails in our paper denouncing those who stand back, selfishly watching a game while a small band of- students endeavor by their noise to prove to the fighting team that their efforts are being ap preciated. And not all efforts to raise "pep" to back our team have failed. During the last few basket ball games on our home floor the old gym has fairly rocked with the cheers and stamping of a victory crow ling student body. Without doubt this cheering played no small part in helping the team to humble N. C. State and to win such a deci sive victory over Lenoir. But can we say we have done our best? Have the students in the galleries fought as hard as those on the floor? From the first tip-off in the Lenoir game till the end of the first half cheer after cheer swept back and forth between the girls in one gallery and the boys in the other and at the end of this half the scoreboard show ed that Lenoir had scored only two points. In the second half of the game the students seemed to take it for granted their team was so far ahead it was unnecessary to show they were behind it. It's true the girls did not seem to lag much in their cheering. But the boys? As ex pressed by one of the Lenoir men, ' they did not seem to be in it when compared with the girls in cheering." And incidently the Lenoir team, which was really inferior to ours, succeeded in piling up as large a score in the second half of this game as our boys did. Now what is this going to mean to us? We will soon play Elon here on our home floor. When our team gets ahead are we go ing to quit cheering because we think it no longer necessary? If our team fails to get in the lead at first will we think we are beaten and that it's useless to cheer? Neither of these qustions need an answer. Let's all be there, right behind our team and let's let them know we are behind them. * * * It is only a matter of time before spring will be here again on its an nual round. With spring, along with other sports, comes tennis. Now it is a recognized and authorized fact, that tennis is a game requiring skill of the highest order. Nor is this skill supposed to be developed by the male species alone. Women have come to the front in war, re ligion, politics and what not and when it comes to handling a racquet they are right there. But on this campus there are about ten tennis courts, which, if properly fixed would make excellent places of amusement, as well as give training in physical culture, why not fix up these courts? One person working regularly would take some time to accomplish this task, but a bunch of fellows could do it in a short time working together. To complete any task there must be an incentive. The fact that Guil ford College was equiped with good tennis courts would be an asset. If the lovers of tennis, both male and female, were allowed to play togeth er one "afternoon of every week, that would be some what of an incentive to fix up and keep in good condition the courts. The incentive being sup plied, the asset must result. The college could hire labor and put the courts in shape, but it hasn't been done. Why build up expense when it can be avoided? If the facul ty would be willing for the above conditions to "be in style" doubtless many chords of energy would be caused to vibrate once more. Steve Brodie took a chance, why not Guil ford. PROF. NEWLIN SPEAKS (Continued from page 1. hard at study when you were arou *J. loafing? "Then are we broad minded? Can we look at a question from two sides and give the other fellow a right to his view? We should learn not to be prejudiced, but give other people credit for also having a mind even as we. Anger, insincerity, conceit and a host of others could be men tioned, and these are faults which all of us have and which all of us should guard against." After the speaker had concluded, the President of the Y. M. C. A., Mr. Raiford, called attention to the series of meetings to be held next week and urged that the student body support and co-operate with the leaders to make the meeting a success. As a closing hymn, "Rescue the Perishing" was sung, and the fellows joined in with enthusiasm showing that they had not entirely forgotten the old songs which they had once learned. Professor Newlin then dismissed the meeting with a few simple and well-chosen words of prayer. THE GUILFORDIAN J. M. HENDRIX & CO. THE HOME OF GOOD SHOES Greenrboro, N. C.
