Greene Street Drug Co. | DRUGS - SODAS - CANDIES j South Greene St. j , + + THE GUILFORDIAN ASSOCIATION SOUTHERN COLLEGES HAS MEETING Guilford College Curriculum Discussed By Dr. Binford During Conference GUILFORD IS A MEMBER At the chapel period Monday, De cember 7, Dr. Binford related some of the experiences connected with his trip to Montgomery, Alabama, where he attended the meeting of the Asso ciation of Southern Colleges. The Association meets the first week in December each year. This year it met at the Jefferson Davis ho tel in Montgomery, Ala. In the lobby of the hotel, college presidents sat on the bench waiting to appear before the commission which was to determ ine whether or not applications for membership should be granted. Guilford was admitted as a condi tional member three years ago. Now, it has an unconditioned membership. Every third year a report has to be made to the Commission to show whether the standards for member ship are maintained. Dr. Binford made Guilford's report and was con gratulated on its excellency. On Wednesday, the Deans of the Southern Colleges had a conference to discuss curricula, and comprehen- I sive examinations. Dr. Binford was invited to discuss Guilford's curricu lum. It is regarded as the most pro gressive of the curriculums of South ern Colleges—with the exception of that of Rollin's College, Orlando, Fla. On Thursday the main session of the convention took place. Alabama's governor, Mr. Miller, gave the address of welcome. Like most politicians, he took himself rather seriously. He gave the assembly a most profound welcome from the length and width of the state of Alabama. His slogan j for teachers would be "Simplify, Don't Mystify." I The question of standards for j membership in the Association was discussed. At the present time prac tically all the standards are some what superficial and mechanical in nature: A college must have a given number of Ph. D.'s on its faculty, an endowment of $500,000, a certain number of volumes in its library, a i given number of units for admission requirements, etc. These standards have been severe ly criticized on their mechanical na ture. So, the Association hopes to , set standards that will test the stu- j | dent to see whether he has been helped by the mechanical apparatus j by which colleges are now judged. l¥IIMIIIliiiilllMIIIIMIIIIWIIIIMipi||li:M H B ■ RADIO ■ HARDWARE ■ SPORTING GOODS I ® Greensboro, N.

NEWLIN GIVES VIEWS ON CONGRESS Speculates On The Session Meeting Dec. 7 Professor Algie Newlin talked to j the chapel group on December 1, on , "Speculations Of What Congress J Will Do" when it meets in its first j session of the seventy-second ses- j sion on December 7th. Because cf the present line-up in Congress it will be especially inter esting to watch the turn of events at this session. There are forty-eight Republicans, forty-seven Democrats, and one Farm-Laborite in the Sen ate. Then there's the problem of choosing a speaker for the house. If the Democrats reorganize they may elect the speaker of the house and also the president of the senate. And all the chairmen of all the sixty one committees will be Democrats. There will probably be time left to introduce a few schemes for Eco nomic Relief. Other things that may be discussed are: The balancing of the budget, the question of Muscle Shoals, foreign policy, and the atti tude of the U. S. to the Manchurian crisis, Hoover's moratorium war debt, world court, and disarmament. VMfrir Y. W. C. A.

Senior Party In New Garden Hall Play Around Christmas Tree In Ginghams And Overalls Well, it seems as if the old tradi tion of the New Garden Senior's en tertaining the other Seniors on the campus is going to be continued this year. In Senior class meeting Thurs day morning slips were passed out j and each Senior was asked to sign j his or her name. These names were shuffled together, then each drew a I slip. To the person whose name each drew, the "drawer" is supposed to j give an appropriate gift—of course | not over ten cents. This party which is to be from 6:30 until 9:30 o'clock, Wednesday night, December 16, is to be quite informal. The dignified Seniors are asked to leave their dignity at the dormotories and come dressed in gingham dresses and overalls for a big time. We're not saying what else is going to happen—the party is to take place in the kitchen and base ment of New Garden Hall—and there'll be a big Christmas tree—so you guess. From what I know about this affair I'll grant that all under classmen will wish that they were Seniors!
