Quakers Engage E. C. T. C.
On Hobbs Field This P. M.
FAVORED TO WIN
More Opposition Than Last
Year Looked for in
Today's Game.
SUBS WILL SEE ACTION
Regulars to Be Benched Part of the
Game; Coach Pointing for
Lenoir-Rhyne Game.
This afternoon Guilford territory will
be invaded l>y the Eastern Carolina
Teachers' College football team. Last
year the Quakers ran away with the
Teachers 79-0, but more opposition is
expected today.
The home squad goes into action
with a 37-7 defeat at the hands of Wil
liam and Mary still stinging. With this
game behind them the Quakers intend
to make the rest of the season success
ful. Little trouble is expected today.
E. C. T. C. has gone up against the
Wake Forest Freshmen and State Fresh
men teams this year and was trounced
27-0 and 18-0, respectively, while Guil
ford has made a good showing against
much stronger teams.
Willi Ihe LenoirHhyne tn m > sched
uled for next week some of the regu
lars will be given a rest md Coach An
derson will probably use a number of
substi' utes.
Last year the opening kick-off was
run back by Jamieson for a touchdown.
Little opposition was shown during the
game, but in the final quarter E. C.
T. C. put on an aerial attack which
threatened the Guilford goal, but were
unable to score.
As this is only the second year of
football at E. C. T. C., Coach Ken Beatty,
who was formerly a Guilford man, de
serves credit for the team he is making
from the inexperienced material he has
to work with.

RENOUNCES STAGE FOR PIGSKIN
For over three centuries William
Shakespeare has been well known in
schools and colleges the world over.
Ilis great ability as a dramatist lias
dimmed another ability which is much
dearer to Bill. Ilis great ambition has
been to achieve fame as a football
Poor Bill has had difficulty in being
recognized in this Held. Way back
yonder in the days of whoever lived
three hundred years ago Bill matricu
lated at liis Alma Mammy just like
all you dumb freshmen did this year.
Ilis first week is very busy in his mem

everything you rats did, probably hav
ing a big football star with a lot of
gab like Mears slap him on the back
and tell him why he should play foot
ball for dear old Whoozls. lie ac
quired a monkey suit and went out to
strut his stuff, but bis enthusiasm did
not make up for his greenness, so Bill
sat down and took it out on Ilamlet
and a lot of other bums.
Now, three hundred odd or even
years later, we find Bill attaining his
great ambition, for this year's lineup
at Ohio State boasts a William Shake
speare—and he is now only a junior.
There's still hope for some of us.
Picking teachers is something like

any two men to agree on the qualities

QUAKER SPORTS
Quakes
A few of the W. & M. incidents in
ease you haven't heard them—
The battle of the apple cores. Cappella
was too slow and Burkgwn was too
good a target.
The annual "nuthouse" excursion.
Coach checked up before the team left
to be sure he had the same number In
the bus.
Shaen broke his record of bench
warming and showed a few people how
it could be done.
W. & M. entertained the team Sat
urday night with a dance—C'm up and
see us some time—oh, yeah!
It's not the practice of this column to
be always kicking about something but
there is a prevailing attitude on the
campus which might stand a little air
ing. It's about this football schedule
we play. There is a group of students
and players that feel it's too stiff. Guil
ford puts out teams for the size of its
student body which are a credit to its
name, but these teams are put up
against opposition which is generally
out of their class. ,
Is it better to play these set-up
games as the under-dog and put up a
good fight and win a moral victory or
to have the majority of these games
with teams which are on even terms
with us and have the students backing
the team like they did at the Catawba
game? And then, too, there the idea
that when a team loses a string of
games it's hard to get out of the habit.
Playing these more well-known teams
puts Guilford on the football map and
increases the athletic association funds.
Should we sacrifice our school spirit and
a successful season for this? Think it
over!
Some of the boys took advantage of
the practice uniforms which were afail
able Friday and put on a game of their
Emory and Henry, Guilford's first op
ponent this year, and Hampton-Sydney
have been making a good showing this
season. That E. & H. outfit looked good
enough the first of the season to be Va.
ehamps.
Wilbur Braxton, number one tennis
player of two years ago, was on the
campus last week-end. He engaged in
a friendly match while here and showed
he's still plenty good.
These pep meetings could be better
organized and scheduled for a better
time. Attendance isn't what it should
be as it is.
CROSS-COUNTRY TEAM
MAY BE BUSY TODAY
Second Meet of Year Will Bo Run Over
Guilford Course in Conjunction
With Game.
Conch Shepard lias been trying this
liast week to schedule a cross-country
meet with Greensboro high school to
be held on the Guilford course this
afternoon, between halves of the Guil
ford-E. 0. T. C. football game.
The meet, if held today, will find
the Quaker runners in tip-top shape.
Bowers, Meibobm and Neave are Guil
ford's crack runners and should hnve
little difficulty in lending the pack
across the finish line. They came in
first, second and third, in that order,
in the first cross-country meet this fall.
This will be the second run of the
year for the harriers, the first having
been won, 27-31, from the Winston-
Salem all-stars.
THE GUILFORDIAN
GUILFORD INVADES
BEAR TERRITORY
ON FRIDAY NIGHT
Second Conference Game Will
Tax Ability of the
Quakers.
LOOP TITLE IS INVOLVED
Anderson's Club Out to Avenge Last
Season's 18-6 Defeat by Lenoir-
Rhyne Outfit.
With the same fighting spirit that
bent Catawba, Guilford is all set for
her annual encounter with Lenoir-
Ithyne at Hickory, X. C., on Saturday,
November 4. Each team has played
an equal number of games, although
Lonoir-Ithyne has more victories chalk
ed up for her. The "Red Raiders"
had an 18-0 defeat pinned on them
last year, but are confident that the
Rears will not repeat their last year's
stunt. However, it is conceded here
that Lenoir-Rhyne has a decided ad
vantage in reserve strength.
The Rears' most dangerous men are
Captain Hemphill and Stasavitch. all
conference stars. The Rears have end
less hackfleld reserves, and the longer
the game goes without adverse scoring
the better their chances will be. Fif
teen or sixteen men will have to carry
the burden for Guilford. Reserve ma
terial is scarce, particularly in the
line. Finch is a great asset for the
back-field.
This game is an important one in
the development of the conference
championship, and if the skids are put
under the Rears it may take more than
Elon has to stop the Quakers from be
coming conference champs.
The greatest improvement that the
Guilford eleven has shown in the pa.it
few weeks has been their aerial at
tacks. The varsity eleven has a sweet
passing combination in Turner and
Norman, with Turner on the receiv
tug end. If these two put on a good
stunt at Lenoir-Rhyne, the team will
have chalked up its second conference
victory.

Guilford is Doped
Better Than U.N.C.
Did you ever stop to figure this
out? Guilford beat Catawba 6-0.
State beat Catawba 7-0, making
them one point better than we are.
State tied Florida, which gives them
a one-point advantage also, and then
Florida put the skids under Caro
lina, 9-0. All this only goes to
prove—on paper—that Guilford is
8 points better than Carolina.
LAST TWO GUILFORD
FOES ARE STRONG
Both Elon and Langley Field
Have Fair Record for
This Season.
QUAKERS POINT FOR ELON
Guilford will end up their season this
year with two teams of approximately
their own strength. Langley Field and
Elon have so far shown that Guilford
will have a good fight on their hands
when these teams are met.
Langley Field will he represented by
a heavy team this year. The Aviators
have allowed only 13 points to be scored
against them, but have been unable to
win a game. The Langley Field-Loyola
game ended in a scoreless tie and Davis
Elkins managed to get a six-points lead
and won 6-0. In the Elon game the
Virginia team was nosed out after a
stiff battle by the seore of 7 to 6.
Elon, Guilford's big rival in the
sports program, has two victories
chalked up for them out of five starts.
The Christians traveled to Ashland and
handed the Randolph-Macon team a
26-0 drubbing the week after Guilford
lost to this team 14-6. In their first
game Elon held Davidson to a love
score. Emory Henry rolled up 24 points
without allowing the Christians to cross
their goal line and the following week
Roanoke won over the Elon team, 21-6.
With this record Elon holds a slight
advantage over the Quakers and has
made a better offensive showing. To
the followers of the Guilford-Elon bat
tles this means that a bang-up game
can be expected this year. As in all
rival games, both teams will be playing
their best football and therefore the
outcome caanot be predicted by a com
parison of scores.

GUILFORD DEFEATED
AT WILLIAMSBURG
BY W. & M. INDIANS
Red Team Shows Plenty of
Fight But Out-classed
by Virginians.
TURNER SCORES ON PASS
Last Half Offensive Work Puts Ball in
Pay Territory a Number
of Times.
A strong William and Mary team de
feated the Guilford College Quakers at
Williamsburg, Va., last Saturday. The
seore, 37-7.
The Indians scored in every period,
and by the end of the half had piled up
a lead of 25-0. To do this a slow-start
ing varsity had to be replaced with a
second-string detachment.
The Quakers failed to tally before
William and Mary rolled up 31 points.
In the third period three first downs
carried Guilford to the William and
Mary six-yard line where they were
finally held for downs. The Indian
punt was blocked and recovered by Tur
ner on the 12-yard line. Turner then
reeled off five yards, Newman made
three, and then a pass, Newman to Tur
ner, scored the touchdown. The same
passing combination made the extra
point.
William and Mary's first count came
late in the first period. Yerkes scored
after a series of fumbles. In the sec
ond period the Indians piled on three
more touchdowns with Yerkes scoring
one and Smith two. Another was added
by Bergin in the third and the last was
in the fourth quarter when Blaker took
a 12-yard pass and ran 40 yards to the
goal.
Guilford threatened several times in
the last quarter, but lacked the final
punch to put the ball across. Taking
to the air in the last few minutes of
play, the Quakers made several nice
gains. The game ended as Finch ran
40 yards to the William and Mary
seven-yard line.
Football lias been discarded for rodeo
sports at the Cheyenne School at Colo
rado Springs. Bucking horses and wild
steers are considered less dangerous by
Dr. Lloyd Shaw, superintendent.
