THE GUILFORDIAN
VOLUME VIII
GUILFORD'S BASKET TEAM WINS
WEE VICTORIES IN VIRGINIA
Successful Trip Closes Season for
Quaker Quint.
The Guilford basket ball team re
turned Saturday night from a six
game trip in Virginia. In general
the team has been very successful in
all of the contests, three of which
were played with other colleges and
and three with athletic clubs. Of the
first group the Quakers won two of
three, and of the second, one of the
three.
All of the games were well played,
and some of them brilliantly, par
ticularly the games with Lynchburg
college and the Lynchburg Elks Club.
Both of these games were won by
one-point margins, the former going
to the Quakers 34-33 in the last few
seconds of play, and the latter to
their opponents 38-37 by the failure,
of the Guilford team to add the nec
essary points to win, after having
almost overcome what was at one
time a 16-point lead.
Guilford 34, Lynchburg College 33.
The first game of the week was
played with Lynchburg College, Mon
day night, February 27. In this game
the Quakers showed their fighting
qualities better than at any time of
the season thus far. The Hornets
outplayed them in the first half, bu l
in the second half they overcome the
seven-point lead which had been reg
istered against them and snatched
victory from defeat in the last three
seconds of play, when Capt. Frazier
with a one-handed underhook from
near the center of the floor, sent
home the two point count which saved
the game for Guilford.
Of the individual players, one can
hardly be mentioned without all.
Every man on both teams played a
splendid game. The guard'ng was
of the closest kind during almost the
entire game. In the shcorirg game,
however, Capt. Fixzier of Guilford
and Suttonfield of Lynchburg stan!
out most prominently. Both men
caged nine field goals each. In ad
dition Frazier shot two fouls. Olivsi
of Lynchburg and Newlin cf Gui'for..
also played well, the former get'ing
four field goals and the latter three
From newspaper reports, the gam
was a splendid exhibition. The
Lynchburg News has the following
to say in regard to it: "The game
was probably the fastest and hard
est fought ever seen on the city aud
itorium floor. Indeed it is doubtful
if a Lynchburg audience of basket
ball fans ever saw such spirit in
a game. It was fast and furious
from start to finish. All of the
players pkiyed like wild men, and the
shorter the game grew, the
•wilder the ten players became. And
yet with all of this spirit, dash and
fight, the game was always in the
finest sort of spirit, for despite the
fact that the players were playing
like a house on fire, at no time did
they forget themselves: I fact the
way the game was played under such
tension is no small credit to the two
institutions represented on the floor."

On Tuesday night Guilford met the
strong university of Virginia quint at
Charlottesville. Va., and was defeated
35-18.
This team was far superior to any
met by the local team this season.
And in view of the fact that then
opponents have defeated the U. of
N. C. team, who now hold the South
Atlantic championship title, the Qua
kers played a creditable game. Al
though Virginians seemed to be some
what erratic in their shooting, their
passing and floor work was superb
and the Guilford five were unable to
ptop Ihem when or.ce they struck
'heir speedy stride.
The first five minutes of the game
was slow and listless, neither team
being able to play real basketball,
but gradually, the Va. team began
to find itself and at the end of the
first half, the score was 20-6.
In the second half. Guilford began
to get away for some pretty shots
and succeeded in running up 12 points
while their opponents get 14.
For Guilford, Capt. Frazier scored
the most points, getting seven. Geo.
Frazier got four, Mackie five and
Terrell two.
For Virginia. Carrington, was easi
ly the outstanding star. This fast
forward scored six field goals and
three fouls.

SYMBOLIC PAGEANT
GIVEN BY Y. W. C. A.
An Appeal for Workers in the For
eign Field Presented at Joint Meet
ing of the Christian Associations
At a joint meeting of the two
Christian Associations Thursday night
the girls presented the Pageant, "In
the Name of the Cross."
Seven nations were represented,
each in turn appealing to America
for Christian aid. Mary C. Henley
was dressed to represent South Amer
ica; Nellie Allen, India; Virginia
Osborne, Turkey; Ruth Outland, Ko
rea; Vera Fallow, China; Ruth Lev
ering, Mexico; and Mabel Ward, Ja
pan..
Marianna White, representing
America, appeared first, telling of
her power, wealth, and fame among
other Ruth Reynolds, as
Christianity then reminded her
it was not America's wealth, fame,
or power that the other nations need
ed, but it was her Christian love and
fellowship given in the name of the
Cross.
Christianity then departed, again
reminding America that if she was
needed she had only to call. America
makes her plans and summons each of
the seven nations, who tell of the
conditions and needs of the country
from whence she came. America, real
izing that without greater love she
cannot give sufficient aid, calls on
Christianity who makes an urgent ap
peal to the best of manhood and
womanhood of our land.
Margaret Levering as a volunteer
to the Foreign countries answers the
summons and, in the name of the
Cross, challenges young Americans to
obey, Ihe call of God and Give their
lives to the work in the foreign
fields.
Clara Henley sans appropriate
hymns during some of the scenes.
Hugh White closed one of .the most
impressive meetings of the season
with a few words of prayer.

PHILOMATHEAN
ORATORICAL CONTEST
Louise Ross Winning Orator
The 14th Annual Oratorical Contest
of the Philomathean Literary Society
was given in Memorial Hall, Saturday
evening, March 4.
The winning oration, a resume of
the late Thomas Walter Bickett, was
of special interest. The subject was
made interesting not only by the
splendid arrangement of facts and
statements concerning the ex-govern
or's life, but because of the portrayal
of character throughout the oration.
The analyzation of Americanism in
the "Heritage of Young America,"
anil the wonderful service rendered
by the keepers of the light were well
brought out by the second and third
orations.
An appeal for the Christianizing of
our social order in the fourth oration,
and a plea for women leaders in
North Carolina in the fifth, completes
the substance of the orations which
were all forcibly rendered.
The musical numbers added much
to the excellency of the program,
Piano Solo—The Shepherds' Tale—
Nevin—Ruth Reynolds.
I. Thomas Walter Bickett—Louise
Ross.
11. The Heritage of Young America
—Mary Wilkins.
