THE GUILFORDIAN
VOLUME VII.
Sophomores Beat
Freshmen In
Forensic Battle
Immigration Question Thoroughly
Threshed Out. Class of Twe'nty-
Three Win By a Two to
One Vote. Much Class
Spirit Shown
The Annual Freshman-Sophomore
Debate was held on Tuesday even
ing. April 26, at Memorial Hall. The
question discussed was: Resolved,
"That congress should enact a law
providing for further material re
striction of immigration."
The Sophomore speakers, Ruth
Reynolds, Hazel Richardson and Wil
liam Wolf upheld the affirmative
while thei negative was upheld by
Robert Marshall, William Blair and
Alison White of the Freshman class.
All the speakers proved to the audi
ence that much study had been spent
in preparation for the discussion.
Ruth Reynolds, first speaker of
the affirmative, ably discussed the
great need of future material restric
tion of immigration; first, because
of the great numbers who are com
ing to America, the present laws
are not adequate, and second, that
economic conditions demand further
restriction in this country; and third,
that the conditions in Europe demand
further restriction.
Mr. Robert Marshall, first speaker
for the negative, discussed the sit
uation as not demanding further
restrictions because many immi
grants were needed for the work on
the farms. Miss Hazel Richardson
put forth the argument that the im
migrants are not the desirable type
to encourage to come to this country.
When immigrants some they usually
live in colonies in the large cities
and our system of assimilation is not
conducive to the needs of the immi
grants.
William Blair in his usual witty
manner produced the argument that
the present laws are adequate.
Wolf presented a plan that would
meet the needs and explained what
the law covered.
Alison White gave a very forceful
speech on the opposition that fur
ther restriction was against Ameri
can ideas, also the idea of distribu
tion of immigrants.
The rebuttal speeches on both
sides were very good and full of
wit. The Sophomores, however, suc
ceeded in convincing two of the
judges that further laws are needed
restricting immigration.
Much class spirit was shown dur
ing the debate, and afterwards a
"garbage can" parade was staged
by the boys of the class of "23."

score of 3-2. This was Guilford's
second victory in the three game
sciits that was played with Elon.
Herman Shore, on the mound for
the Quakers, held the Elon batters at
his mercy except for the fourth
inning, when Elon made her
only two hits. He allowed only two
hits, one base on balls, and caused
14 Elon batters to fan the air in
vain. Perry for Elon allowed nine
hits and struck out five men. The
batting star of the game was Cur
tis Newlin who, in five trips to the
plate got two singles and one three
bagger.
Guilford's first run came in the
second frame, when Clark muffled
Hayworth's long fly allowing him
to reach first. He then stole sec
ond and came home when Stout
drove a good one out into the outer
garden'for two bases. Guilford's
second score came as a result of
Hayworth getting safely on second
when Clark again muffled his long
fly and then coming home on An
drew's two bagger. Her last run came
in the seventh. With two men down,
H. Shore was safe on Johnson's error.
Singles by B. Shore and Hayworth
allowed H. Shore to tally.
Elon's scores came in the fourth
and sixth. Singles by Cheek and
Brown were largely responsible for
the first. The second was made

chance to score was passed in the
seventh. Stringfield beat out a hit
to third and took third on Johnson's,
