Mildred Conrad and Ruby Crews sang the negro spiritual, "Sweet and Low," and Lillian Holder concluded the program by reading several poems by negro authors.

ALWAYS SERVE THE BEST PHONE 2-1125 THE GUILFORDIAN ALUMNI PROGRAM HELD ON HOME-COMING DAY Hobbs, Binford, Brusselle, And Frazier Speakers MILNER IS TOAST-MASTER Home-Coming dinner was an en joyable feature, in the day's program —especially the after-dinner speeches. Dean Clyde A. Milner, acting in the capacity of toastmaster introduced President Emeritus L. L. Hobbs, the first speaker on the program of greetings. Centering his talk around the subject, "Yesterday," Dr. Hobbs said that he hardly knew just what the past was. Time, he said, is one of the most symbolic words known. He quoted Rufus M. Jones as saying that the stream cf time is a one-way street on which everybody is going the same direction. Going back into the history of Guilford, Dr. Hobbs recalled that the Quakers have al ways been against war and slavery, and because of such a stand they have at some times been very un popular. In speaking of Guilfordls early histcry he paid respect to sev eral men and women who had a part in the founding and development of the college. In conclusion he said we must not work with the past, instead we should profit by the experience of the past and thereby reach new heights in our educational ideals. The second speaker was President Raymond Binford who outlined sev eral phases of college activity to which Guilford is giving particular attention, today—physical education, new curriculum, the A Capella Choir, and Religious training gained through discussion groups with subjects on the students' conception of God, campus problems, and world relations, which have been held during the past three weeks. Dean Milner next introduced Al fred Busselle, the architect who is to plan Guilford's building program for the centennial. In the course of his speech Mr. Brusselle stated that Guil ford, in her stand for character and for spiritual values in life, has taken the lead in an educational policy which the nation is beginning to recognize as the soundest basis upon which to work. In the last address of the program, Rcbert Frazier, lawyer of Greens boro and an alumnus of Guilford Col lege, spoke on the prospects for Guil ford in the coming year. The past is Sfone, he said, and cannot be changed; but one thing that can be altered is -he future. Signs of promise for Guil ford in the future must be taken from her past. "Here is a College," he said, "that is bound by no political or in dustrial ties; it is unashamed to cling to the best of the past and un abashed to accept the best of the fu ture."

BINFORD SPEAKER As part of the radio broadcast sponsored by the Liberal Arts Col legts of America Greensboro and Guilford Colleges conducted a short broadcast over Station WBIG in Greensboro, N. C. This was a local broadcast put on by the two colleges to acquaint the people of this local ity with these institutions. The program consisted of four parts: a trio from Greensboro Col lege presented an instrumental selec tion. This was followed by a short speech by Reverend Murphy Wil liams. Dr. Raymond Binford then spoke on "the Liberal Arts College." A double quartette from Guilford fol lowed with a song to end the broad cast. Dr. Binford presented the Liberal Arts College in its true phases. It provides the human side of life. He drew a comparison between the two types of schools. The Liberal Arts College emphasizes living; the pro fessional school emphasizes the way to make a living. The speaker cited various experi ments being undertaken by the small colleges of America. Among these were the honor system of Swarth more College in Pennsylvania; the cooperative works and study plan of Antioch College in Ohio; the two hour study plan of Rollins College in Flor ida, and the life problem program of Whittier College in Southern Cali fornia. "The Liberal Arts College em bodies the spirit of youth in a more remarkable way and in a more strik ing form than it is found in any other Institution." These colleges are the best means for developing character into young men and women. Forty-two of the twelve hundred and sixty-eight colleges in America are located in North Carolina. There are twenty-one four year colleges and twenty-one junior colleges. Eight of these colleges, at present, are bound together in the North Carolina College Conference. They are co operating to raise their own stand ards and to build up the whole educa tional program. Honor Our Football Heroes f Complete Line of Stationery S. H. KRESS & CO.

HANES UNDERWEAR MEN AND BOYS EVERY SEASON December 2, 1931 "Potential Gripe" and "Wet Blanket" Are Fast On Opposition "LOTSAPEP" MAKE DOWNS Gold Bricks Won't Pay Fifty Cents—Good Material Still On Bench For the past two weeks the Better Spirit, led by the Student Affairs Beard, has been fighting for a foot ball banquet. The strong opposition put up is no more than was expected. At the first mention of a banquet the Potential Gripe sprung into ac tion. He has done a great deal to halt the offensive onslaught of the Better Spirit, for it was he who in tercepted the long forward pass of Student Talks in chapel Tuesday morning. The Wet Blanket, playing guard for the opposition, has repeat edly smothered line plunges of the Ticket Salesmen. Substitutions on the pro-Banqquet line have been rather frequent. "Gold bricks" have slipped in, students who are audibly in favor of a football banquet in honor of our heroes, but when it conies to fifty cents—well, that's another thing. One by cne the students from the opposition are coming over to the cheering line of the Better Spirit, but the odd thing is that the more active they were for the opposition the more easily they are brought over. Lo, someone waves a pennant—What words are graven on it? "The De pression." Phooey, phooey! The De pression is just a poor excuse for not buying a ticket. Their real reason in fact is Indifference. Indifference pre vents more ticket sales than all other factors brought together. But with the team of Better Spirit gaining j firstdowns and opening an aerial at tack—woe to the quitters! We shall not print a summary for the game so far, it would be discour aging. But two hundred points is our goal: two hundred tickets, one hun dred dollars! And for all above that— Boy! What a bonfire. The football team has fought for us, now let's show our appreciation. s. Fordham-McDuffie Drug Co. 229 S. Elm St. r Treensboro Prescription Specialists Roger McDuffie - J. N.
