January 28, 1931 QUAKES H. S. W'ms., Jr. We hate to alibi, but nevertheless Guilford had some tough luck against Elon Saturday night—the ball just wouldn't go in. One consolation, we have two more games with the same team this season in which to avenge the defeat. * * * . Interest in basketball practice should take a decided increase with the addition of scrub games to the schedule. One contest has been play ed, and plans are going forward for several more in the immediate future. * + * The start of track practice this week will give the boys a chance to catch up on physical education. It is hoped that a large squad of new men will turn out to help the veterans build a team capable of coping with the extensive schedule. * * The Virginia trip should prove the strength of the 1931 edition of the Quaker Basketeers; all four of the games are tough ones. However the game Thursday night with A. C. C. is the only one which will have a bear ing on the race for Little Six honors.

NEW EXPERIMENT IS TRIED BY MEMBERS OF ECONOMICS CLASS Part of Dr. McCracken's Stu dents Interview Officials Of Industry ENTHUSIASM SHOWN Recently an experiment has been carried on in Dr. McCracken's class on Economics 11. The members of this class have interviewed competent officials of large corporations in Greensboro, Winston - Salem, High Point, Reidsville and Leaksville. Great enthusiasm has developed in this ef fort to connect classroom. It was hoped that this opportunity to meet men in business might inhance the self-confidence of the various mem bers of the class. The purpose of the interviews was to find out as much about the person nel departments of these large com panies as possible. Among the ques tions they sought to settle were: Is there a separate personnel depart ment in the business; if so, how is it organized? They also sought to dis cover its relation to the rest of the firm. Methods of hiring employes and of firing some were investigated. The training program was studied; the wages and hours of work; and pro motion plans of the various busi nesses. The various interviews sought to discover whether the time and mo tion study was used, where used and how effectively. The various safety and accident prevention programs of the plants and welfare work such as recreation, medical attention, hous ing, religious and educational facili ties were also investigated. There was considerable interest in employee participation in manage ment of various businesses. Practic ally no corporation studied had par ticipation of the rank and file of the employees in the business manage ment. This study has netted many thor ough, interesting papers. Among the companies examined are: The Tom linson Chair Manufacturing Co., of High Point, which Ralto Farlow stud ied. This company has no separate personal department he tells us, but its program and policies are carried out through its various officials. El bert Newlin's paper on the Bluebell Overall Co., was very good. John Phil lips wrote on the Carolina Cotton and Woolen Manufacturing Co., of Leaks ville, Draper and Spray. Wade Mackie discussed the Proximity Manufactur ing Co. The great Cone Mills of Greensboro that furnish livelihood for 15,000 people and turn out one-third of the world's denim. Personnel de partments of banks, insurance corpo rations and tobacco companies as well were investigated and in them all the members of Dr. McCracken's class saw either the principles they are studying at work or the need for these in the industry.

Fendle Hill, a new Quaker school near Philadelphia, was the first in the series of places that Dr. Binford met with groups. Here he talked with Rufus M. Jones, an outstanding Quak er, and Professor at Haverford Col lege; W. W. Comfort, president of Haverford; Dean Walters, of Swarth inore College; and Henry T. Hodgkin, president of Pendle Hill. The discus sion was regarding the Survey of Quaker Education with the view to a successful All-Quaker Conference on Education, this particular group try ing to decide whether to include Hav erford and Swarthmore in the survey. "There was apparently a sympa thetic response to the suggestion, but President Comfort felt that the prob lems of the colleges of the Five Years Meeting were so different from those of Haverford College that there would not be much gain in including Haver ford in the survey or in the confer ence," President Binford said. "He also felt that some able scholar of psychology and religion could bring out the points that would be helpful in the conference more effectively than a survey would bring them out. Rufus M. Jones is in favor of the confer ence, but he expressed little interest in a preliminary survey for gathering facts. Dean Walters was interested in the proposition, but due to the fact that Swarthmore has recently had a very thorough survey, he thought that this would not receive a sympathetic response from the faculty and stu dents of the college. "On Saturday, the 17th, I met with the Quaker Schoolmasters group, which is made up of the head masters of the Quaker schools in and about Philadelphia and New York, includ ing the schools belonging to the Five Years Meeting, those belonging to Philadelphia Yearly Meeting, and those belonging to the General Con ference of Friends, known as the Hicksite Friends. I suggested that if we should hold an All-Friends Confer ence, we would like to consider the whole of the American Quaker effort in education. The Schoolmasters group appointed a committee to give further consideration to the matter and re port at the next meeting. "Monday evening, I was in Indi anapolis, Indiana. There the Board of Education of the Five Years Meeting met to give further consideration to the Survey of Quaker Education, espe cially that fo the seven colleges be longing to the Five Years Meeting. Its purpose is to discover if possible what qualities may belong to the Quaker colleges that may distinguish them from other colleges—whether there are common methods that may be of superior type in the develop ment of scholarship and character building. Of course an effort will also be made to discover any weak points and practices that may be a detriment to the best work of the institutions. With other data before us concerning the effort of American Friends in building up educational institutions we hope to form a picture of Quaker education which may appeal to men who are in a position to give sub stantial financial assistance in build ing up better equipped and more ef ficient institutions. Sessions of the Board of Education of the Five Years Meeting were continued on Tuesday and Wednesday, sandwiched in be tween the Council of the Church Boards of Education. "Other topics considered were the developing stronger secondary schools amongst Friends, the relation that should exist between Quaker schools and colleges, and their relationship to the Five Years Meeting, educational problems pertaining to parents and children, and methods of co-operating more completely with the ministers in the Five Years Meeting along edu MISS EVA G. CAMPBELL TALKS ON BLOOD SERUM Recent Discoveries In Action Of Agglutination Are Reviewed TRANSFUSION EXPLAINED Miss Eva G. Campbell, who has re cently returned from the Ohio State University to her position in the Bi ology department, talked to the stu dents in chapel before examination week, on recent discoveries in the study of blood. Miss Campbell reviewed the many tragedies during the world war which resulted from attempted blood trans fusions. There seemed no solution to the problem of successful blood trans ference. But thirty years ago an Aus trian scientist stated that all people did not have the same kind of blood. His studies were neglected until re cently, when the Nobel Prize was giv en him for his work, and interest was increasing in other scientists in the peculiar behavior of blood. Now a theory has been advanced which ex plains the phenomenon that had often resulted in tragedy. The blood is made up of two parts —cells and serum. In both of these are substances which attract all like substances. Many people have similar constituents in their blood, so when the foreign cells and serum are sent into the vessels, all the like sub stances are attracted to each other. This clumping, or agglutination in hibits the flow of blood and death re sults. This development in the determina tion of the make-up of blood has been valuable not only in the field of surg ery, but legal medicine is also being benefited. And it is also possible to identify family traits in this manner because the characteristics are inher ited. To be able to sell your blood for transfusions, catch a criminal or clear yourself when in trouble, or stage a Solomon act in baby identification, are all things that would help to make heros of people—and they are things made possible through the peculiar ities of our blood. Quilford Triumphs Over Lucky Strikes On Thursday evening, JaJn. 22, the Guilford College basketeers trounced the Lucky Strike team in the Farm er's Warehouse at Reidsville. Guilford took the lead at the start and was never headed, the game end ing 31-12. A good lot of Guilford's points were made by the second team, who played quite as well as the var sity. Before the game the spectators were entertained by the "Lucky Strike Band." cational lines. The question of pre paring a list of Quaker teachers em ployed in the schools and colleges and also in other institutions, both inde pendent and state-supported, was dis cussed. The secretary of the board was selected to present the matter to the Amrican Friends Service Commit tee with the hope that they might gather such a list in the office of that committee. "I met, on Wednesday evening, with the Liberal Arts College Movement. We discussed ways and means of giv ing publicity to the needs and work of the Liberal Arts Colleges in Am erica with the view to securing larg er support for the smaller colleges. Thursday evening I attended a meet ing of the Association of American Colleges." It is interesting to know that Hugh Moore, an alumnus of Guilford College, met President Binford at the station, and very cordially welcomed him to Pendle Hill, where Mr. Moore is now studying. Dr. Binford also had a visit with Edwin M. Wilson, of Hav erford, who, is of the class of '92 of Guilford. Marvin Shore, principal of Friendsville Academy, Friendsville, Tennessee, another graduate, was a fellow attendant of the president at the meeting of the Board of Education of the Five Years Meeting at Indiana polis. Present students of the college are perhaps more interestd in th fact that while at Westtown, Dr. Bin ford called on a graduate of 1930, Miss Norma Belle Wilson.

Greensboro was remembered to Will as being "O. Hem-y's town," and North Carolina as "Uncle Josephus Daniel's state;" also by the recent Senator Morrison, who, Rogers said, "made a speech before he took his hat off." But some back on the outside of the crowd seemed to become aware of the fact that a great flyer was pres ent, and curiously watched Capt. Hawks as he refuelled his plane. Then, just before leaving, Will came in for his share of the glory again when the crowd rushed towards the plane with the college boys leading the charge, in an effort to get Rogers to write his name on slips of paper for them. To this the humorist consented and sev eral minutes were spent in getting the autograph of America's greatest humorist. On being asked to write a joke on one of the papers, Will an swered "Go ask Coolidge to, he writes jokes." They showed sincerity in their plans for helping the Southwest area in relief work from drought. And it was a real pleasure to see this noted pair who were giving time and talent in an effort to restore prosperity.

Elon obtained a big lead in the first [half which Guilford was never able to overcome. The Quakers missed shot after shot and never seemed to hit their stride at any time during the game. Elon used the five man defense dur ing the early part of the game, but switched to the man for man defense in order to protect their lead. Haworth with three field goals was Guilford's only threat from the floor, but Captain Alley sank six free throws and contributed two baskets to run off with the scoring honors for Guilford. Jamieson played a nifty floor game until he was taken out in the begin ning of the second half, on the per sonal route. The summary: Guilford: G. FB. PF.
