For the Record . . .
With basketball season over, our
attention is focused on the spring
sports, baseball and track. Every
day Coach Cheek can be seen work
ing on the infield of the baseball
diamond. The infield is already in
the best shape it has been in for
three years.
The track is also showing signs
of improvement. It has been scraped
and rolled and now is about ready
for its first layer of cinders.
Spring football practice has just
About reached the halfway mark.
There are a number of new boys out
this year who show promise of be
coming standouts next season. Jack
Klkins and Ed Jones are looking
good at the quarterback position.
.Toe Floyd and John Shore are two
promising halfbacks. Ed Huso looks
as if he will add strength at one
of the tackle slots, and Bay Slier
iner may develop into a fine end.

damage done to those who partici
pate in it. The Quaker doctrine of
simplicity called for avoidance of
all superfluity "in dress, speech, and
behavior." The history of the So
ciety of Friends may be divided
into four periods:
1. The Apostolic age 1050-1700.
2. The Age of Conservation and
Culture Creativeness—l7oo-1800.
3. The Age of Conflict and De
cline—lßoo-1000.
4. Modern period—l9oo
- it is based on living ex
perience, Quakerism is compatible
with contemi>orary science. In the
silence of prayer and worship there
comes out of the depths of soul
strength an dorder which can over
come cobict, unify life, and produce
the only kind of peace which can
propagate itself in the outerworld.
"The present day function of the
Society of Friends Is to aid all men
everywhere to create such a sensi
tivity of conscience that social pio
neering will continue."
The third and last new piece of
literature in this review is a book
entitled The Common Ventures of
Life, by Elton Trueblood, professor
of philosophy at Earlham College,
and president of the Friends World
Council. It is the purpose of the
author to teach the reader how to
live. The book is divided into five
sections. Section 1 deals with man
and his finding his true self and his
place in the Christian world. Sec
tion 2 is on marriage, Section 3 on
birth, Section 4 on work, and Sec
tion 5 on death. Mr. Trueblood has
tried to reach those who take "the
primary stuff of reality" pretty much
for granted. He has written a very
forceful book that certainly will
make people realize just why they
are living and what they should do
to improve their way of life.

If Sam Sliugart and Bob Spencer
won't speak to you any more when
they see you, don't feel bad. They
have been switched from position
in tie line to fullbacks. Beside that,
they have girl friends.
Dick Hall stands in line for a
little praise by making the All-
Conference basketball team. Jase
Ralls rates high in the basketball
line too. He made his last season
as a Quaker a mighty fine one. .Tim
Coward, Wally Maultsby, Dick Hall
and Jase Kalis are four players who
will Ik" lost to the Quakers due to
graduation. All four will be hard
to replace.
Let's give a little praise to J.V.
players Bill Uingler, Ilobcr Coving

these boys will probably play var
sity ball next year.

Mr. Parsons says that if stu

necessary, the situation will im

At. present the college has
about 30 tons of coal on hand,

This should be enough, Mr. Par

System Discussion Here
East Sunday evening, February
20, the weekly gathering of Student
Christian Association became the
scene of a spirited and searching
discussion—opening a new school
wide drive for a stronger Honor Sys
tem. In opening, Hank Semmler,
the moderator; pointed out that Guil
ford's honor system has suffered
widespread violation; and that all
students who have witnessed viola
tion have actually taken part in it,
since all have failed to report of

Eleanor Corneilson stated the pur

system, saying that it was success

possibilities lie wholly with us. She

brought before the Honor Board,
where decisions, although they may
be referred to Dr. Miiner for re
consideration, in the end are final.
Btu more than punishment, sympa
thetic advice is offered by the board
to help offending students.
Ed Skinner then presented another
view of the honor system; he sug
gested we attack only tile cause of
violation rather than the effect, by
replacing all punishing powers with
a committee designed purely to find
and overcome the cause of offense.
A lively discussion followed. Then
several transfer students presented
the values of the systems used at
other schools.
Miss Gilliert, one of several fac
ility members present, brought out
the necessity of a greater loyalty
to the school and its principles,
above loyalty to individual friends.
Devices for warning guilty stu
dents, such as tapping the desk
with a pencil, were considered.
The following step of reporting the
guilty student found opposition
among many, who believed that cases
should not be brought to a punish
ment board, but remedied by indi
vidual advice and example, and per
haps a sympathetic investigating
group with no higher powers.
