EDITORIAL
HSSSING AS AN ART
Geese have a right to hiss; they
don't have brains or tongues
enough to do anything else. So do
snakes; it is one of their noted
characteristics. So do some ill
mannered people; may he they
don't know any better. College
men and women are not usually
too unintelligent. But the pre
rogative of hissing in Founders
dining hall when someone is call
ed from the hall during the course
of a meal, has been constantly ex
ercised. It is a source of great
embarrassment to the one passing
down the aisle to be hissed at so
loudly and with such unison.
Probably it is the embarrassment
that causes that one to wonder if
after all they are not geese without
grains. Or may be they are just
people who don't realize just ex
actly how the other fellow' feels.
TOM ZACHARY—A MYTH
Tom Zachary, who has pitched
him self to glory, Washington to a
world championship, and added
greatly to Guilford's athletic pres
tige, all in one season, has had the
greatest and most enthusiastic sup
port of the present Guilford stu
dent body ever accorded an old
Guilfordian so far removed. To
most of them lie is a god of the
baseball diamond, much lauded
by the press; a towering personal
ity whose daily baseball successes
have been eagerly gathered over
the radio.
"Zach" came to Guilford about
1915 and during the season of
1916 and 1917 pitched Guilford to
a North and South Carolina state
championship. He seems to have
just the knack for pitching teams to
championship; or to put frankly,
putshedoes have the "stufif'and he
puts it across. No one would say
that he put Washington on top by
himself, for Washington has other
great pitchers, but he did hold
New York down twice; he did win
two out of four games won by
\\ ashington in the final World
Series.
There are still some mn in Ceol
lege who can remember when "Big
Zach" was last at Guilford doing
his Junior work, and they were
doing their freshman stunts for
the all-powerful Sophs. ffiese
onetime "rats" can also remember
how it snowed that winter, and
they were snowballed. "Zach in
that day, had that marvelous con
trol of his arm (it is said that he
could throw a rock through a
knot hole in a fence fifty feet
away), and it was his delight to
put forth his magic arm and graze
a fellow's chin, or clip a fellows
ear with a snowball. He never
had the habit of hitting his sub
ject, but that subject was never
convinced of' that fact. Possibly
which read ,"Zachary held New-
York 2 to 1," and the like, have
since the sensational headlines
come out, the freshmen would
trust his accuracy; eve.t tet htm try
one ol those Hilly fell stunts, lint
"Za.h" never nau tne iiabu oi tut
ting; tie seemeu to u.. e a liKicn
Digger ueart, tnan e.i.., magic
oi tits arm.
And may be some ot tiiose near
.iit i resnmen wish i.ow tnat he
iad a p.ece or two ot
oil tneir cnm so tnat taey
could d,splay it witii pride and
say, "See th.s scar.' Weil that s
wnere loin Zachary got his prac
tice tor ball pitching. IN ice scar,
don't you think?" if only one
.ould nave had a sense ot far
sightedness—or even just a scar
to display with pride.

ER RORS TORE CORRECTED
There have been two serious er
rors in the past two issues of the
Guilfordian that need correcting.
The first issue carried the state
ment that Miss Elizabeth Cude
died June 2nd. This should have
read June 22nd, 1924.
In the second issue of the year,
in the list of college marshals, the
name of John Cude was omitted.
Mr. Cude was elected as college
marshal at the regular meeting of
the faculty.

OLD STUDENTS
Harry Johnson who withdrew
from Guilford College in 1920 is
doing interne work at Cincinnati
General Hospital, a large hospit
al owned and operated by the city
in which it is located. Just now
Dr. Johnson is doing work in sur
gery from which work he will be
shifted, after a short time, to gen
eral medicine. He began his work \
as interne last spring and will
probably finish it within the next
,ear. He is very popular with
both the patients and those in
charge of the hospital.
After leaving Guilford "Harry"
entered the Cincinnati Medical
College from which he received
the degree of M.D. last June.
Algia New!in enroute from Cal
ifornia to North Carolina paid a
visit to "Harry" and reports,
among other things that he is a
member of the hospital baseball
team. Those who knew him at
Guilford remember his good work
on the Guilford team.
SOUP AND HOT CAKES
BANISHED FROM MENU
It has been decided to banish j
both soup and the so called "hot
cakes" forever into the limbo of
past delicacies at Founder. This
authority comes from no less an
authority than Miss Kopf, who
assures us that it is true. Occa
slionly, perha,ps, .on cold rainy
days, soup may help constitute the
menu, as there is still a heavy
stock on hand in the basement,
but no longer will it arrive with
dreary regularity on Tuesday,
Wednesday and Saturday lunches.
As soon as the supply of pancake
flour gives out, they too will cease
to be a troublesome factor. Here- j
after Wednesday mornings will be
a constant adventure, where any
thing may turn up —even eggs.
HOME ECONOMICS GIRLS
TO SUPERVISE H. SCHOOL
The class in Cookery I is highly
elated over the arrival of the new
ives in the Domestic science de
partment. They are hoping to
have them up and in use by next
week, in time to get all the peach
es, pears and string beans canned, j
The Domestic s ience girls are to !
supervise and overlook the class in
cookery and sewing at the High
school this fall. This will count ;
as part of the practice teaching in
the Home Economics major.
Most of us do our best work un
der the whip of necessity.
The fellow with too many ideas
I is as big a nuisance as a cat that
has too many kittens.
