More About the Guilfordian
Our once nearly-dead newspaper
is well on the road to recovery;
still better, the students are begin
ning to recognize this and are re
sponding to the call for subscrip
tions. Soon we will be hack on our
feet again and the student body
will be the means by which this
may be accomplished.
One of the most important new
developments is the decision of the
dramatic council to give at least a
part of the proceeds of the spring
play for the GUILFORDIAN. This,
by a good patronage from the stu
dents, will be almost'enough to pay
off the incurred debt of the paper
and with our other assets, we will
soon he sitting even with the world
once again.
Various other plans are under
consideration in order to raise
money for the publication and the
continued co-operation of the stu
dents will he greatly appreciated.
Incidentally, there are some who
have not yet subscribed; every op
portunity will he afforded these stu
dents to become paid subscribers
and it will require the backing of
all the students to get the plans
which we have made across suc
cessfully.
The Honor Roll
Twenty-four names are on the
first honor roll of Guilford which
will really give the students any
material benefit. At another place
in the GUILFORDIAN there is an ar
ticle with their names and there is
also a list of the unusual rights and
privileges thereunto attached.
These students are to be congrat
ulated for their excellent record.
The college is to be praised for
placing such a premium upon
scholarship.
Without admiration for the abil
ity for each of these persons, how
ever. we reserve an especially great
portion for those students who
have emerged at the top, not be
cause of a deathly struggle with
school work to the exclusion of all
else, but who have won while sup
porting many other duties in the
form of outside activities.
Those who did gain their goal he
cause of selft-denial and intensive
study are to he praised as ones who
see a distant goal for which they
strive and, by virtue of hard work,
finally achieve their end. May we
never be guilty of trying to be
little their attainments.
"STUNT" NIGHT UPROARIOUSLY
RECEIVED BY ALL STUDENTS

bravely led her singing class on to a
doubtful victory, and Mr. Frounick,
complete with umbrella, overshoes, and
satchel arrived 011 the campus well pre
pared against a rany day.
111 "Upsetting Exercises" the girls of
Mrs. Andrews' gym classes surpassed
themselves. Never before have ranks
paid stricter attention to orders or car
ried them out with such instantaneous
response and perfect finish. In fact,
so greatly did the famous gymnasts im
press even the hardened judges with
the length of their tongues, that those
same judges awarded them coveted
prizes.
Now there was an entire change of
scene, and the audience was forced
away in imagination to a moonshiner's
hut on the mountainside. Here, trag
edy very nearly occurred when two
clever crooks played a desperate game
of life and death, the clever crook
finally outwitting the very clever one.
In "The Light House Keeper's Daugh
ter" a hold and bloody villain heart
lessly shot and robbed poor old Pop
Dugan as faithfully he swung his rusty
lantern out towards the sea one night.
Rut anon the skill of great Dr. Fakus
restored Pop to life and the waiting
arms of Mom Dugan and Dolly, whose
weeping and wailing and gnashing of
teeth were touching indeed. The judges
relieved at this second averting of
stark tragedy at the last moment, pro
nounced the quintet worthy of third
place.
The last number on the program —a
thrilling boxing match between two
champs—was broadcast by Radio An
nouncer Harper. The boxers, thirsting
for blood, brutally mauled each other,
and for a while it seemed that one of
the two was destined for the hospital.
But a cup of tea, a biscuit, and a pillow
brightened the general outlook, and re
versed the order of events by enabling
the smaller to vanquish his larger and
less agile foe.
The program ended with the render
ing of the judges' decision, and the
handing out of candy suckers to the
winners.

DR. HENRY HODGKIN INTERNA
TIONALLY KNOWN, VISITS US
(Continued from Page One)
scliqol is not only for students iust/ out
of College, but for unarried couples as
well, who wish to study in a thought
ful and religious atmosphere.
The accommodation at Pendle Hill
just now is a large, rambling old house
on the estate of Dr. Furnas on the road
to Media, out from Philadelphia. Here
a small group, at the beginning, will
meet and be given the opportunity to
see this world in which we live in a
co-operative spirit with others who,
too, are seeking the truth. "They be
lieve that not a few wayfarers may
turn in and find, in joyous fellowship
with others, what it is to climb a cer
tain steep and high hill and from the
hard-won peak to see, not, like Cortez,
a Pacific Ocean, but the sea of unsat
isfied humanity breaking 011 a not
distant shore."
Since reaching the campus, both Dr.
and Mrs. Hodgkin have been meeting
and talking with student groups. Dr.
Hodgkin addressed a joint meeting of
the Y. W. and Y. M. C. A., and also
spoke in chapel. When Mrs. Hodgkin
was introduced, she immediately won
the hearts of the students in a few
words that definitely declared her Irish.
Their visit has been marked by the
sincere welcome of the students, who
feel that Dr. and Mrs. Hodgkin have
enjoyed their stay with them.

Over the Horizon
HERE they come—the- nucleus of an all-electric
merchant marine. Yesterday, they were a dream.
To-day, they are well over the horizon, linking the ports
of the east and west coasts with fortnightly service. The
goal of the Panama Pacific Line is to build three more
turbine-electric ships, thus enabling weekly New York-
Frisco sailings.
Even now, the three liners, California, Virginia, and
Pennsylvania, constitute the largest fleet of turbine-electric
