H.-S. W'ms., Jr.
Coach Anderson's baseball equad is
blossoming with the coming of Spring
into what promises to be an excellent
diamond outfit. The boys are working
hard and it is our opinion that some
of the veterans of former seasons are
going to be pushed to retain their po
sitions.
Of the new mound prospects, those
looking best are Rasely and Purnell,
while Zachary, Johnson, and Pierce
of last reason's squad are showing up
in good style.
Coach, Shepherd's track proteges
are showing promising pre-season
form. They are to hold an inter-class
meet soon as a test of their abilities.
We note with pleasure the great
improvement in the track this season.
It is being rimmed and cinder coated
and will be in the best condition ever
when completed.
The \V. A. A.'s long heralded gym
meet went over big and as far as we
can gather it was a howling success.
You certainly have to hand it to the
women when it comes to being unique.
We've never seen anything like it be
fore!
Tennis prospects for the season are
looking very hopeful for the Quakers
this Spring. The courts have been put
in excellent condition and practices
are progressing regularly.
Parsons and Braxton, both returns,
are looking fine with many promising
candidates showing form in practice.

MRS. ANDREWS DIRECTOR
On Friday night, March 20, the
Guilford College Department of Phy
sical Education for women, under the
direction of Mrs. B. M. B. Andrews,
gave its annual demonstration in
gymnastics.
Probably the most outstanding
part of the program, and the part
which seemed to most keenly inter
est the audience, was the Apparatus
work. This included rope climbing,
vaulting and walking on the balance
beams. The rope climbers, however,
seemed to be the center of attraction.
It was a real thrill to watch them
climb to the top, cross over from rope
to rope and descend with as much
poise and ease as if it were just a part
of their daily routine.
The juniors and seniors deserve
special credit for their marching—in
view of the fact that they have had
such a short time for preparation,
they did excellent work.
All of the classes did well in their
dances. The Sophomores, however,
were probably most outstanding in
this phase of the night's program.
The floor drills were also very ef
fective. There is nothing more pleas
ing than a group of people working
in perfect harmony.
The relays and races ended with a
final scores of Seniors —2, Juniors—o,
Sophomores.—2, Freshmen—2.
The lastj part of the program was
composed of class stunts. The Sopho
mores presented the "Old Woman
Who Lived in a Shoe," the Juniors
played an excellent game of croquet
with human balls and the Seniors
contributed rare wisdom as to how to
keep healthy. The Freshmen brought
the program to a grand climax by
forming the human "G. C.," after
which everybody rose and sang "Al
ma Mater."
Much credit is due Mrs. Andrews
and her girls for their excellent per
formance.
The program was as follows:
1. Folk Dances Freshmen
2. Animation Polka Sophomores
3. Floor Drill Freshmen
4. Migionette Juniors

LOVE OF GOD SUBJECT
OF REV. TOM SYKES
Missions School Speaker Dis
cusses Love From the Be
ginning To Present
EVERYONE CAN LEAD WAY
Rev. Tom Sykes had charge of the
last hour of the final meeting of the
School of Missions on March 15. He
spoke on the "Love of God."
"Men first learned the love of God,"
said Mr. Sykes, "when Abraham of
fered his favorite son, Issaac, as a
sacrifice. God wanted a life through
which his plan was to live—not a
blood sacrifice."
Hosea learned a lesson of the depth
of God's love when he fell in love with
and married a beautiful girl, who be
came unfaithful. However, he still
loved and went to seek her. Thus,
showing God's love by trying to win
back the unfaithful.
The final revelation of God's great
love came in Jesus Christ. There were
no national barriers erected by his
coming—the whole world was includ

Of Employment For Women
Mrs. Milner, in her vocational guid
ance work, has requested that the
existing conditions of employment
among college women be reviewed for
the benefit of those preparing for
professional work.
An autfienic report is given in a
recent issue of the Journal of the
American Association of University
Women, by Chase Going Woodhouse
in an article on The Demand For Col
lege Trained Women In the United
States. Information for discussion
was gathered from the various edu
cational institutions throughout the
nation, and the stated conditions rep
resent statistical results.
There seems to be the greatest ov
er supply among those who follow the
teaching profession. While all reports
pointed to a general over supply of
teachers, the situation of those pre
pared to teach certain subjects is
worse than that of others. As noted
previously, English and history are
always listed as the most crowded
subject-matter fields. Modern lan
guages comes next, then science and
mathematics .... Teachers of public
school music seem easier to place than
those preparing for other musical
work."
In other fields, such as journalism,
there is less trouble in placement of
graduates. "The difficulties for librar
ians lay not so much in oversupply as
in poor recommendations, limitations
as to locality, physical defects, nerv
ous troubles, and personality weak
ness." Social service, law, medicine,
and general business work offer op
portunities. But age is of paramount
Dr. Binford Talks
On Quality Aspect
Standards Must Be Considered
In All Phases Of
College Life
Dr. Raymond Binford spoke to the
student body on Tuesday Max-ch 10,
on the quality aspect of our fourfold
life. What standards should be set up
for the students to attain ?
Good students want the standard
for scholarship to be high so their de
grees will mean something, he declar
ed. Should a professor spend his time
testing students to learn how much
they are retaining, or to devote his
time in devising methods to make the
lessons clearer? To stimulate this
phase honors, the honor roll, and
scholarships have been established.
Considering the quality of physical
life a standard of health must be
maintained. We seem to be making
progress in the problem of diet.
"It is as important that exercises
in spiritual life, such as prayer, and
reading be enforced, in establishing
character as any regulation concern
ing scholarship," he stated.
Dr. Binford concluded by saying
we should choose our friends so they
would be lasting.
world, but that it might be saved
through him." He came to seek and
to save sinners.
Men of today are humble because
of the material collapse of things they
have built alone without the aid of
God. As the house that was built on
sand, they cannot stand. "One who
gains the world at the expense of los
ing his soul has certainly missed the
mark," said the speaker. The sooner
that we come to realize that we are
at the end of our resources the bet
ter it will be for us.
The trouble with people today is
that they have slipped into a rut,
and do not care what happens, so long
as they are not disturbed. The trag
edy of the whole thing is that all wait
and expect others to go ahead and
do things.
In closing Rev. Sykes said, "You
can't decide what is to be done with
others' lives, but you can decide for
yourselves."
importance in the problem of over
supply. "It is extremely difficult to
place women over forty and there is
a growing tendency to prefer women
under thirty-five. There seems little
justification for women over forty to
study for higher degrees with the
hope of capitalizing on them unless
they need the degree for advancement
in their present position."
"Probably so far as the college wo
men are concerned the question of un
employment calls for study of the eco
nomic situation, revision of curricula,
educational and vocational guidance
directing students into fields other
than teaching of the more usual sub
jects, and an effort to open still furth
er all occupations to the suitably en
dowed and trained women."
PHUN
Auntie Gets Truth
"A thousand thanks for the pres
ents, Auntie."
"Don't mention it, my dear; it was
nothing much."
"No, I don't think so either, but
mama said I should do it anyhow."
Men Deceivers Ever
"Alice used to say that people
should marry their opposites. Did
she?"
"I guess so. She says that soon aft
er her wedding she discovered her
husband was just the opposite of what
she thought he was."

Romantic Memories
"Dear Clara," wrote the young
man, "pardon me, but I am getting
so forgetful. I proposed to you last
night, but really forgot whether you
said yes or no."
"Dear Will," she replied by note,
"so glad to hear from you. I know I
said 'no' to some one last night, but
I had forgotten who it was."
YM AND YW CONFERENCE
REVIEWED AT Y PROGRAM
Mrs. Aggrev, Mr. Harrison,
Phillip and Campbell
Main Lecturers
MUSIC APPRECIATED
The Y. program for Thursday even
ening, March 12, was of unusual and
special interest. The six delegates who
attended the Student Conference on
Missions at Chapel Hill the week-end
of March 27, reviewed the speakers
of the Conference and their messages.
Louise Melville gave a brief general
survey of the entire conference. The
purpose, the delegates and the pro
gram were spoken of. Miss Melville
summed up the points from which she
received new inspiration, new ideas,
and renewed old ideals. Everyone
present profited by these.
Marshall Budd gave a report of
Mrs. Aggrey, wife of an African Mis
sionary known as "Laughing Ag
grey." He told something of the ro
mance of their marriage, and their
life. Also about his work in Africa.
An interesting account with many
amusing incidents of the work of Dr.
Paul Harrison as a Medical Mission
ary to Arabia was reviewed by Dor
othy Whitfield. The talk was closed by
a summary of the needs prevalent in
Arabia today and their challenge to
young Christian students.
Lee Phillip, the young negro poet,
was discussed by Julia Plummer. His
address was briefly reviewed. His
topic was Negro Missionaries and his
message may be summed up thus:
"We must not think of people as ne
gro or white missionaries, but as
Christian Missionaries."
Matthew Bridger gave a review of
the Message of Fay Campbell, who is
known as a "Yale Man's best friend."
According to Mr. Campbell the eco
nomic disorders could be helped, if
not solved, by real Christian living.
His thought was, we must free our
selves of those who try to keep us
satisfied with things as they are.
Music is always appreciated and
adds to any occasion, and the confer
ence was no exception. Mary Rey
nolds gave an idea of how the musical
program was carried out. Miss Rey
nolds also told about the message
from the Nations which was conduct
ed by the foreign delegation.
The program was brought to a close
by the hymn, "Lord I want to be a
Christian" sung in a prayerful mood.

Oak Ridge Defeats
Quaker Outfit 8-1
Andersonites Fail to Score as
Cadets Count Eight Runs
in Practice Tilt
MANY PITCHERS USED
In the first practice baseball game
of the current season Friday, March
20, Oak Ridge defeated the Quakers
8-1, on the Guilford College diamond.
The contest after the first five in
nings was very ragged and slow, part
ly due to a cold hard wind that chilled
the players and spectators.
The Quakers tallied their sole run
in the second inning. C. Davis scored
on a wild throw by the Cadet catcher,
after having singled; I. Davis advanc
ed him to second on an infield hit.
Oak Ridge was held scoreless dur
ing the first three frames, while Cap
tain Zachary was on the mound. How
ever, the Cadets got to Rassely for
two runs, and scored two off Pierce,
as well as four off Johnson. Errors
played a large part in this scoring.
Chisholm and I. Davis were the
only Quakers able to get more than
one hit; each got two singles in two
official trips to the plate. Williams,
Sizemore, and Slayton were the lead
ing hitters for Oak Ridge. Guilford
was able to garner seven hits while
the visitors collected ten.
The two opposing shortstops, Web
ster and Newborne, were the fielding
stars of the game, if anyone might so
be called. The keystone combination
of Gold and Newbone for the cadets
worked well, accounting for several
nice double plays.
Score by innings:
Oak Ridge 000 112 04—9
Guilford 010 000 00—1
Batteries: Royle, Stockton, and Fer
rebee, Smith; Zachary, Rassely, John
son, Piece, and Davis.
