WAA HANDBOOK SECURED Tennis Matches Have Been Played; Hockey Games to He Feature of Alumni Day. The activities of the Woman's Ath letic Association are in full swing, under the capable leadership of Miss Helen McColl, director of physical education for women, and Eunice llol loman, president of the Woman's A.A. More interest is being shown this year than ever before, and the coming pro gram bids to be a very successful one. Much equipment lias been added, especially in the form of ping pong paddles, balls, nets, badminton rackets and birdies, and bows and arrows for archery. These items have already proven successful and will continue to furnish much opportunity for re creation and diversion. There have been made three addi tions to the A. A. Council. These are Isabel Dunkhorst, manager of inform al sports (badminton, deck tennis, ping pong), Kathleen Leslie, tennis manager, and Elizabeth Robertson, secretary and treasurer. A new feature which will be of in- I valuable assistance to both freshmen I and upperelassmen, is a W. A. A. | Handbook. It is a small, paper-bound j volume, done in crimson and grey, which contains the regulations and the constitution of the W. A. A. It also explains the seelction of teams, anil gives a sport schedule for the entire year. It is an excellent addi tion, and much credit is due Barbara Hamlin, chairman of the Handbook j Committee. Tournaments are being played off; in both formal and informal sports, ping-pong, badminton, and tennis. Only the first round of the woman's singles and doubles has been played off. but the mixed doubles reached a success ful conclusion last week, with Helen Wheeler and Howard Petrea the win- j liers, and Jo Swift and Stokes Raw lins runners up. This match proved interesting to a large number of spec tators as well as players, and a more complete schedule of mixed doubles is being planned for the spring. The hockey captains, Virginia IV- j ters, freshman: Jennie Dixon Stout, sophomore: Lucy Gaunt, junior: Ade laide Feidelde.v, senior, and Patsy \ Wheeler, hockey manager, have taken ! charge of the arrangements for the! Home-Coming Day game between the' women's honorary homecoming day j team and the women alumnae This 1 group is also in the midst of an inter- j class hockey tournament: to date two games having been played off.

I I MM.MMIMMMM.MMIMM. I = QUAKES This afternoon we play our first home game of the season, against Mil ligan, an aggregation from our neigh boring state of Tennessee. These boys have a good record, having scored a total of 155 points to their opponents' 91 in the 1937 season. Our home team hns showed a de cided improvement over that of last season, and we are going to be out there to keep up this record against Milligan this afternoon. Pat Shore of Lenoir-Rhyne was lucky to win that game last Friday night and if you don't believe it, ask him. Paul Lenta, injured in the first half, handicapped the Quakers tremen dously on the offense with the loss of his running, passing, and booting. This Lentz has been given the reputation as one of the best kickers in the con ference. Students, we are proud of the sup port that you are giving our team this year and we only hope that this will continue throughout the season. . My remark in the previous issue of the Guilfordian concerning the Wil liam and Mary game, was not an over rating of the Quakers' strength, but, instead, an underrating of that of Wil liam and Mary's. It is the duty of each section to prepare a sign or some object for the welcoming of the Alumni and the E. C. T. C. Pirates on Home-coming. This has been a tradition of many years. These signs should be in front of the sections by midnight Novem ber 4th. Come on. fellows, let's see who hns the best idea. Fight team fight Fight team fight Figjit team, fight team Fight team fight. on a potential game room in the base ment of Mary Ilobbs hall, and it will soon be an activity center for ping ping and similar informal games. On November 12 all girls interested in hockey will make a trip to Duke I'niversity to take part in a Hockey Day. All colleges in North Carolina where hockey is played will be repre sented. The object is not competition, but is an effort to promote an interest in, and the playing of, better hockey. The W. A. A. hopes that a full team wil be signed up to go by the 12th.

ACREE AND GRICE STAR Friday night, October 21, the Le nolr-Rhyne Bears defeated the Guil ford Quakers 6-0 at Hickory in a hard fought contest. Guilford, the under dog, fought on even terms with their rivals until the fourth quarter, when Lenoir-Rhyne scored the lone touch down. The first half saw the Quakers driving deep into the Lenoir-Bhyne territory, only to lie repulsed near the goal line. With Acree, t.entz, and Grice leading the drive, the Quakers drove to the Bears' two-yard line, only to be stopped on downs. Lenoir-Bhyne scored the winning touchdown in the fourth period on n drive led by Slgmon and Quinn that carried the ball to the Quaker goal line, where Sigmon went over for the winning tally. j GUILFORD "V" OFFICERS ATTEND STATE MEETING 'Continued rrom fa ee Otic') conference were one hundred fifty delegates from eighteen different col | leges.

The Guilford cross-country team journeyed to historic Williamsburg on Friday, October 21. and lost a close meet to the Indians of William and Mary to the tune of 3.3 to 22. Al though Captain Alvin Meibohm ran a beautiful race in nosing out Roller of Willam and Mary, the well bal anced tribe of Indian braves annexed the next four positions. Lin White, running his first race, was second for the locals, and "Lucky Teeter" Moir zoomed in to beat out "Stew" Aiston, "Wimp" Meibohm, and "Hat" Pickett. Even in defeat our boys looked good, and should give the remaining teams On their schedule plenty of competition. Always Welcome I We Appreciate j Your Patronage Pleasants | MERCANTILE CO.

GAME STARTS AT 2:30 P. M. Tennessee Squad Invades Quaker Campus for First Time; Has Good Record. This afternoon the Guilford Quakers will oppose the Milligan football team on Hobbs Field for the first encounter of these teams. This is the first time that the local boys have entertained an aggregation from Ten nessee. The Quakers will likely see action again from Gilmer Roles and Paul Lentz. Boles, having sustained an ankle injury in the William and Mary encounter, is quickly recuperating and will take over his regular position at guard. Paul Lentz has also recupe rated and will improve the Quaker chances for victory. The loss of end, Buck Ilines, is a great one; but Conch Smith has given the second string ends the twice over and will likely start Frank Fondren, Greensboro boy. Milligan lias an excellent record and therefore leaves Guilford as the under dog. They have thus far defeated Mars Iliil, 31-0, a 27-0 win over Ili wassee. Maryville licked Milligan, 15-0, but was revenged the following week when Milligan tied Carson-New man at (S ail. The Guilford squad has been drilled thoroughly on passing: both offensive anil defensive. Coach Smith's opinion is not at all optimistic but he believes that his bo.vs will give the mountain eers a tough battle. The probable line-up: for Guilford— ends, Fondren ami Newlin; tackles, McDonald anil Byrd: guards, Boles mid Wilson: and Harry Naee at cen ter. The backfield will be composed nf Lentz. Acree. Chambers, and Grice. According to a I'niversity of Den ver survey, the average co-ed wears a size 14 dress.
