ARE HONORED BY
STATE REALTORS
A. K. Moore Is Elected Presi
dent of North Carolina
Real Estate Boards
DAVID WHITE SECRETARY
W. E. Blair, C. C. Smithdeal, R. C. Mil
likan and Paul Edgerton Are Ac
tive in Real Estate Boards
At the meeting of the North Caro
lina Association of Real Estate Boards
held in Greensboro October 7 and 8
Guilford college graduates were sig
nally honored. Both the president and
secretary of this organization, elected
at the meeting just mentioned, are
alumni of Guilford college. Of the
nine speakers and leaders of discus
sions who were on the program for the
two business sessions, two are graduates
of Guilford, W. E. Blair, of Greensboro,
who led the discussion on "Planning
and Developing the Subdivision," and
C. C. Smithdeal, of Winston-Salem,
leader of the discussion on "Financing
and Selling the Home."
Though there were alumni and for
mer students of Guilford from different
sections of the state who took part in,
or attended this meeting, it is the pur
pose of the Guilfordian at this time
to give special mention to only those
who are members of the Greensboro
Real Estate Board.
E. C. Millikan, vice-president of the
Greensboro Real Estate Board for the
year 1926, is a former student of Guil
ford college, and David J. White, sec
retary-treasurer, is a Guilford college
graduate, a member of the class of
1920. This board has nine standing
committees and for the year 1926 there
are from one to three Guilfordians on
each of six of these committees. C. D,
Benbow, Jr., a member of the class of
1909, is a member of both the execu
tive committee and membership com
mittee. Paul C. Edgerton, a former
student, is chairman of the program
committee; W. E. Blair, '9B, A. K.
Moore, 'll, and David White, *9O, are
members of the appraisal committee.
E. E. White, a former student, is a
member of the arbitration committee,
and R. C. Millikan, a former student,
is chairman of the constitution com
mittee. Guilford alumni are connected
with the development of three of the
most popular residential sections in
and near Greensboro—Sunset Hills, Irv
ing Park, and Sedgefield.
A. K. Moore, who was elected presi
dent of the North Carolina Association
of Real Estate Boards at its recent an
nual meeting, is president of the A. K.
Moore Realty Company, developers of
Sunset Hills. Sunset Hills with its
beautiful trees, its winding streets, and
the lovely homes that have already
been built, is truly a delightful place
to "Park for Life." A few years ago
the A. K. Moore Realty Company de
veloped Westerwood, another very de
sirable section of the city.
Mr. Moore takes an active part in
city affairs. He is a prominent mem
ber of the Civitan Club and the Cham
ber of Commerce. He recently moved
his offices to the Moore Arcade, a new,
up-to-date office building located on
West Market street and owned by the
A. K. Moore Realty Company.
A. K. Moore graduated from Guilford
college in 1911, and has been in the real
estate business a greater part of the
time since that date.

secretary-treasurer of the North Caro

UPLIFTING REVIVAL
COMES TO A CLOSE
Fifteen Dedicate Lives to Chris
tian Work In Meetings Led
By Lewis McFarland
MEETING ENDED SUNDAY
For the past two weeks the New Gar
den Meeting House has been the gath
ering place for one of the most spir
itual and upbuilding revival services
that has ever been held in that church.
Both the community folk and the
college students have attended the serv
ices enthusiastically to hear Mr. Lewis
McFarland, superintendent of the
evangelistic work of the North Caro
lina Yearly Meeting of Friends, preach
some powerful and influential sermons.
During the meetings, which came to
a close Sunday night, Mr. McFarland
emphasized the importance of taking
a definite stand for Jesus Christ and
averred that no greater joy and peace
could come to the soul than by living
a true Christian life.
A great number responded to the
altar call during these two weeks. There
were 15 who dedicated their lives to
the personal service of the Lord. On
the closing day of the revival Mr. Mc-
Farland opened the doors of the church
and four gave their name's as candi
dates for membership to the New Gar
den Friends Church.
GUILFORD LOSES TO
ATLANTIC CHRISTIAN
BY ONE TOUCHDOWN
Doak's Fighting Quakers Suc
cumb to Lateral Passes of
the Wilson Team
THE FINAL SCORE IS 6 TO 0
Guilford Drops Third Consecutive
Game and Men Become Determined
to Break Losing Streak
The Little Christians of Atlantic
Christian college upset the collegiate
dope bucket Saturday, October 16, and
whipped the Guilford Quakers 6-0. The
game was hard-fought and featured by
many sensational plays by both elevens.
Riggon, Dunn, Munn and Fulghum
starred for the Little Christians, Rig
gon, A. C. C.'s star halfback, doing
spectacular work. Robertson and Kim
rey for the Quakers showed up well
on offensive, while Beatty, Moon and
Parrish performed well on defense.
Kimrey and Moon did fine work on
offense in passing and punting.
The Christians' whirlwind attack at
the start of the game swept the Quakers
off their feet. After the Quakers were
driven down the field to the shadow
of their own goal, they took a brace
and Ebert recovered a fumble on the
20-yard line. The first quarter ended
with a punting duel between Moon and
Dunn.
The second period began with a se
ries of trick plays on the part of
A. C. C. A couple of first downs were
ripped off in quick succession and a
drop-kick attempted was forced to kick
out of the danger zone. A. C. C. be
gan her far-famed passing attack and
gained 25 yards on the first play to
the 12-yard line. They tried another
pass, but failed and then ran a fake
play through to the one-yard line
where the Quakers held for two downs.
The next play put the ball across for
a touchdown. The kick for point was
blocked by Guilford's right tackle. The
remainder of the contest was hard
fought by both teams but neither team
was able to score.
Guilford's aerial attack foiled the
Christians and four completed passes
out of five attemps netted the Quakers
50 yards. Guilford launched an attack
at the beginning of the third period,
taking the kick-off and making f\
steady march from the 35-yard line to
the Christians' 10-yard line where Rob
ertson fumbled and Blow retrieved.
The Christians made several thrusts at

TRUE INTELLIGENCE
IS GOOD JUDGMENT
Prof. Hill Turner Discusses the Art of
Making Decisions of Rela
tive Value
"The real test of intelligence is to
judge values correctly," said Prof. Hill
Turner, Guilford's new business man
ager, in chapel Monday morning.
In Christ's discussion of the respon
sibility of man he said, "Render unto
Caesar the thing's which are Caesar's."
The same thing holds true today. A
student in adjusting himself to life
should learn to give the proper values
to the issues which he has to face.
A democracy, in order to become suc
cessful, must be composed of citizens
who have leisure time after their work.
A man can give only of his surplus;
therefore, it is the duty of each indi
vidual to weigh carefully those things
which seem most important and then to
act accordingly.

BATTLEGROUND TRIP
IS THE MAIN SOCIAL
EVENT OF WEEK-END
Hike to Scene of Revolutionary
War is Held in Spite of
Slight Drizzle of Rain
HOT DOGS AND COFFEE
Dr. Perisho Delivers His Lecture On the
Battle While Freshmen Eat
Their Frankfurters
Again an annual event has passed
into history. The Battleground hike
has eome and gone. Nathanael Greene
has sat serenely upon his horse of
bronze and his keen eyes have peered
from beneath his massive brows while
Guilford's "beauty and her chivalry"
passed on either side. In front of him
was the virgin with the olive branch;
but for those who were loth to accept
there rested the brass cannon whose
adamantine lips speak a mute but well
known language. Thus Greene stood
in person when the lordly Cornwallia
essayed to climb the heights; thus his
likeness has stood while how many
Guilford parties have made the annual
pilgrimage to this historic site?
Again the thick woods have echoed
the sporty cries and shouts of pulsating
youth, as indeed they echoed the rattle
and crack of muskets and the battle
cries of American patriots and sea
soned British dragoons, on the 15th of
March, 1781. Mayhap Dan Cupid with
his cross-bow was out and spent the
afternoon in his efforts to get in range
of the wary youth of our old Quaker
institution. Perhaps some of the laugh
ter and pleasantry that echoed and re
echoed was the result that he secured
when his darts flew wild or struck
without inflicting the wound that would
stay.
A more beautiful day had never been
seen than the day before, but by the
time the students were en masse gen
tle raindrops began to fall. But with
one purpose swaying the mind, all de
ployed to fight again the contest that
meant so much in the life of the new
nation and perhaps to fight conversa
tional battles that they had been amass
ing forces in reserve for throughout
these many weeks of school.
The college truck proved to be use
ful addendum before nightfall. Be
sides transferring the provisions to be
consumed, it picked up many of the
foot-sore and weary who had fallen by
the wayside.
When all had gathered at the selected
spot, Dr. Perisho narrated the maneu
vering of Greene and Oomwallis before
and after the battle of Guilford Court
House, and told the story of the con
flict itself. It was a lesson in history
that was enjoyed vastly more than it
could have been if it were given within
the four dull walls of a lecture room.

DOAK EXPLAINS THE
BRAINS OF FOOTBALL
Coach Doak appeared before the stu
dent body in chapel Wednesday morn
ing to explain the art of playing foot
ball.
Naturally, his subject for discussion
was the technical side of the game. The
purpose of the talk was to give to those
who know little of this game a general
understanding of the various plays.
Coach Doak explained at first a few
of the technical terms. This was fol
lowed by an explanation of a simple
play in diagram form upon the black
board and he proceeded to tell what
each man does. The system of calling
signals was also discussed.
