The varsity hockey team is shap
ing up extremely well according to
the latest reports from Miss Hutch

with the consistently large turnout,

least two games with \V. C will
be played. Possibly a Play Day will
be arranged with W. Greens
boro College, and Guilford partici- I
pating. Those reporting to hockey !

On the ninth of November the !
W. A. A. plans to sponsor a social
function of some sort. As yet, plans
are incomplete.
To serve those girls who are, for
physical reasons, unable to partici

Miss Hutchinson has formulated
programs to tit their needs. Such
activities as badminton and bike
riding are offered.
Work has been started again 011
the unfinished rooms over in tin'
gym. Also the \V. A. A. has bought
new hockeysticks, balls, and bad
minton equipment.
This afternoon the W. A. A.
will give a tea from 2:15 to 3:1")
in Founders Hall. Ail students arc
urged to attend and help toward
making the alumni feel at home
during their stay on Guilford Col
lege campus.

On the Winston Roail
25-0, 36-0 Chalked Up;
Team Remains Unbeaten
State, Carolina, and Guilford are
the three undefeated elevens re
maining in the state after four or
live initial rounds of play, and this
column, naturally, will lie devoted
exclusively to the Quaker club.
Since the Guilfordian last came
off the press, Doc Newton's charges
have preserved intact their unbeat
en, untied, and nnscored on record
at expense of Randolph-Macon and
Woflford, teams which absorbed 25-0
and 36-0, respectively, losses at the
hands of the rejuvenated local grid
i lers.
In amassing this impressive rec
ord, two members of tlie team have
come into their own in the race for
North State conference scoring hon
ors, Flash Gordon and Billy Powell j
hot having racked up 24 points to tic j
Eddie Adelman of Appalachian for
second place in Hie race.
Up front are Tony Georgian® of!
Catawba and Gene Miller of l.etiior- j
Hliync, both of whom the Quaker'
touchdown duo will get a crack at
' when Guilford hits its conference
I schedule. The two leaders are a
| touchdown ahead with 30 points
each.
Powell featured the Randolph-1
•Macon contets, wliieh was marked
by long runs, turning in the longest
of all, an HO yard scoring jaunt
Gordon ripped oft' 24 himself 011 ;i
reverse, and Powell scored again
from three yards out.
It was up to Wally Maultshy, how j
ever, to turn"the trick 110 other Guil
ford back has been able to do. He
took a Randolpßi-Macon punt, start
I ed to the right behind two blockers,
cut back into the middle, and raced
wide open 70 yards to the double
marker. Oddly enough, tlie Thomas
ville boy hasn't since run from
scrimmage.
Against Woflford, Gordon and j
Powell reversed, the former this
time notching two scores to one.
Powell's lone marker came 011 a
line plunge good for five yards.
Gordon also hit the line, taking
a shovel pass from Faircloth to go
| over hurdling the outstretched arms
of Woflford defenders. Again a pa
from Faircloth, this time good for
15, did the trick.
Most spectateular play of the
Woflford game came when Hob
Klinch, sensing a pass, dropped back
from his end position to intercept
a Terrier aerial, and showed his
heels to the field on a 50 yard run.
Kinch scored one of Guilford's two
touchdowns last season, that against
Appalachian.

THE GUILFORDIAN
Bill Powell Leading
Team Ground Gainer
The conventional belief may be
that figures do not lie; however, fig
ures do not always tell the complete
story, as shown in the following
table of statistics concerning the
abilities ot' various Guilford foot
ball players. Wallace Maultsby, for
instance, has a statistical rating of
4.0. It is well remembered, however,
that Mr. Maultsby traveled some 70
yards for a Guilford touchdown
against Randolph-Macon.
Hilly I'owell, who stands second
in the table of figures, is actually the
j Quaker's number one ground gainer.
I i'owell lias carried the ball 20 times
j| /SSr
BILLY I'OWELL
for a total of 201 yards and an
average of 0.0 yards per try.
Joe Winner, although away down
the list, comes just after Powell in
ground yardage gained. Winner lias
carried the ball 27 times for a total
gain of 10-1.7 and an average of
o.i.
In reading these statistics it must
be remembered that kickofl' returns,
punt returns and pass interceptions
are not recorded as official rushes
and consequently do not figure into

Quakers Attempt To Retain Position
As Only Unscored-On College Team
Quaker (agers Begin
First Practice Periods
The Guilford Colege Iwisketees ini
tiated their tirst practice drills of
the oncoming season last week, when
over thirty candidates reported for
the tirst trials. Coach Paul W. Lentz
hopes to construct a smooth func
tioning team from the remaining
members of last year's squad, along
with returning service men who saw
action in other seasons, and from
the many newcomers.
The large turnout in numbers has
guarenteed the formation of a prom
ising Junior Varsity organization
which will play its own schedule
aside from that of the senior aggre
gation. Through this system the
Guilford policy of participation in
sports for everyone so desiring to,
can be carried out in the true sense
of the word.
Among last years quintet to re
turn again to the hardwood for the
Quakers are Captain "Bunk" Leon
ard, Bruce Hansard, Roy Christian
sen, Jack Arzonico, and Jack Chath
am.
The returning military men who
played in years previous to their
going into service, and are back
again for the tirst time are Bill
Hyatt, Herb Schoellkopf, George
Short, "Form" Presnell, Wes Collins,
and lioy Ciineo.
Billy Cleaver, Quince Caviness,
Jerry Watson, and l>ick Hull are
among the freshman and transfer
students to appear and who showed
much sign of promise.
The closing of the football season
after Thanksgiving should bring to
light many other aspirants for the
team. Soon after that, hard regular
practice will begin in anticipation
of a tough season. Although the tirst
game as yet scheduled with the
Mi'ray Eagles for the Jsth of De
cember. other games may be hooked
to be played in the tirst two weeks
of that month.

This sison other colleges and
universities will have home-coming
events. Bnt no other group of Amer
ican home-comers will see its Alma
Mater's football team as an un
defeated, untied and unscored upon
gridiron team—no other group save
the Guilford alumni for such is the
record of the current Quakers. To
night at eight o'clock in Greensboro
•Memorial stadium Coach Doc New
ton will offer the Milligan College
Buffaloes a chance to break thi.-
perfect record.
Advance notice from Guilford's
scouts have the boys from Milligan
as a strong outfit with a hard run
ning ground attack. In view of the
tact that the fellows from Tennessee
will be knocking hard at Quaker
line, Cach Newton has stressed de
fence in the past week' 6 workouts.
The Guilford forwards, and especial
ly the second string, played against
Wofford in such a manner as not to
please the coaching staff.
With the exception of Max Trull,
a consistent back from Greensboro,
the Guilford men will be in first
rate condition for tonight's game.
Curly Diekerson, another Greens
boro back who served under Coach
Newton a-t State College, is expected
to be in tonight's battle, after miss
ing the past two games.
Coach Newton is fortunate in
that he has a host of backs to carry
the attack. Joe Winner, threat at
running and kicking, has shown im
provement over his already out
standing work. Art Faircloth, rated
as one of the top passers in the
conference, will, should the Quakers
take to the air, lend the flight with
his tossing. Bill Phipps and Bob
Gordon have received praise for
their running abilities.
Harpo Withers will be back at his
regular center position after trying
out at guard. Big Lody Glenn, who
has been combining his tackle with
snapping the ball, will do full time
tackle duty.
