EDITORIAL COMMENT
The Trinity Game
Guilford's defeat Saturday was a
bitter pill—for defeat is always hard
to accept gracefully.
In all fairness to our varsity how
ever, we should consider for a mom
ent the odds which they faced in
this initial game. An untried team
in which men had been shifted and re
shifted in an attempt to build a back
field where there was no material to
begin with, was a handicap which
Trinity might claim she could paral
lel in her own case. But her 700 men
opposed to Guilford's 100, offered
her an advantage in meeting it, an ad
vantage which gave her a team, heav
ier to a man than the Quaker boys.
c7fifferedcwa*t
Such an advantage we must recog
nize and prepare to meet with the
onlv resource left us, added football
spirit and fighting spirit.
Trinity, having started football
training September 1, had also two
weeks the advantage of the crimson
and gray team in training. Two of
her touchdowns were made as a re
sult of costly fumbles on our part.
With two more weeks of good hard
practice before meeting another
strong opponent, our team should be
strengthened against a repetition of
that fault.
We know our weakneses now, and
in that fact lies at least some meas
ure of strength. But whatever the
outcome of the game next week or the
week after—remember this, team —
The Guilfordian backs you until the'
last whistle blows.
Why the Conflict?
A well known scientist defines ev
olution as the continuous change from
an indefinite incoherent homogeni
ty to a definite coherent heterogen
ity of structure and function
through successsive differentiations,
and integrations.
A prevalent opinion chrystalized
into a definition of evolution would
go somewhat like this:
Evolution is a theory worked out
by some scientists, which would have
vou to believe that four or five thous
and vears ago some monkeys became
dissatisfied with their physical condi
tion and make-up and as a result,
they started a contest for improve
ment in which man is the final result.
With such ideas as this in the minds
of the people, can we wonder at the
conflicts which exist between the ones
who accept the first theory and those
who falsely interpret it as in the case
of the second theory.
