College Anticipates
Dec. Coal Quota;
Slock On Hand Low
(David Parsons, business man
ager of Guilford College, was con
tacted by the GUILFOKDIAN last
Saturday, only a few hours before
John L. Lewis ordered his United
Mine Workers back to their coal
pits. Unable to contact Mr. Parsons
for supplementary information, the
GI'ILFORDIAN prints the infor
mation provided by Mr. Parsons
with the hope (hat the strike settle
ment will greatly relieve the situa
tion here at school.)
Anticipating a cold few weeks
ahead, but hoping for balmier days,
David Parsons, business manager of
Guilford College, has described the
effects of the nation-wide paralyz
ing coal strike as "a serious threat"
to college operations.
"With any luck at all the college
will be able to continue on a modi
fied heating system until the l!tli
of this month," Mr. Parsons assert
ed. "However," he continued, "the
over all picture does not look too
good, for Guilford still has not re
ceived its December quota of coal
and unless it comes sometime dur
ing this week it will be overdue."
"We've cut down on the heating
system in the library and the gym
nasium, but regardless of conserva
tion measures, the college still burns
an average of two tons of coal a
day."
Mr. Parsons emphasized the fact
that the school will be able to keep
its schedule of classes and activities
intact until the beginning of vaca
tion. After vacation and the Jan
uary 3—'l
"That's the immediate problem
that concerns us at present," he as
serted. "Unless we receive that coal
shipment the situation could l>e
construed as grave. We'll need that
coal in order to open again after
vacation."
