Page Four OUAKER SPORTS -w Action in Girls' Intramural Basketball Basketball Windup ALL HAIL TO YANKEE STA DIUM for they have just won an other title in intramural basket ball. The boys have proved them selves to be real champs, and I guess it will be many a moon be fore anyone comes along to stop them. For a while it looked as though the Old North-South squad would cop the title, however the Stadium rallied to the cause and finally beat them 57-47 in the final game. Un fortunately the phys. ed. depart ment has not compiled the scoring records so you Will just have to wait until the next issue to find out who were the leagues leading scorers. The members of my all-star team are as follows: Guerere, Traf ford, Nunn, Cornish, and Peace. You place them, it gave me too much of a headache to try. The final standings are as follows: Won Lost Yankee Stadium B 8 0 Old North South 6 2 Black Hornets 0 2 Ppiifpr 5 3 New North PB 4 4 Archdale 3 5 Day Hops 3 5 Yankee Stadium A 1 7 New North Cubs 0 8 And there you have it, the wrap up of another season. So I'll say so long to basketball for another year, and may the coming years be even better, and a championship for someone else other than the Sta dium, however that will sure take some doing. W.A.A. News The basketball tournament will soon be completed, according to Bonnie Ferrell, tournament man ager. The standings are as follows: Lost Won Tie Evie Cline 0 3 Ann Newton 2 1 Bo Wooten , 1 2 Bev Broome 1 2 Kat Shumaker 111 Mut Wellons 2 1 Buby Tolbert 2 1 Mary Ella Clark 2 1 Also under way is the badmin ton tournament under the direction of Ruth Burton. The finals will be completed before the holidays. The ping pong tournament is run ning simultaneously with badmin ton. For the first time, golf will be offered for girls as a regular physi cal education course this spring. Two classes will he taught by Coach Ben Baker and Miss Mar garet Reynolds. The W.A.A. Cabinet has voted to sell racquets and balls to the students as a money-making pro ject The balls will be sold at sl.lO per can or $ .40 a ball. The ar rangement is being made with a sports equipment store in High Point. Guilford College is participating with about twelve other colleges in North Carolina in a project to send one or more CABE packages to Korea and, if possible, to the Philippines later. Each package costs approximately forty-six dol lars and will include such equip ment as balls, nets, and games. M iss Reynolds is directing the Ath letic Federation of College Women project. Quaker College Announces Grad uate Assistantships Haverford College's President Gilbert F. White announced to day continuation of the Graduate Curriculum in Social and Tech nical Assistance for the fourth year. The suburban Philadelphia Quaker college has pioneered in this training course in international social and technical assistance to equip mature students for posi tions under Point IV and other similar constructive programs. "It is our hope," President White said, "That the young men and women we are training in this pro gram will furnish a peace force for the task of building healthy and prosperous communities both in this country and abroad." Leading to the Master's degree, the program includes applied as well as theoretical work and such on-the-job training as a week on a self-help redevelopment housing project and six weeks with the Cherokee Indians of North Caro lina. Already the graduates of the past two years are holding respon sible positions, such as: work with Point Four in India, social work with the Grenfell Association in Labrador, and at several commu nity centers in this country; a teacher-training program for Jew THE GUILFORDIAN ish communities in North Africa and the Near East; teaching in Mexico, Jordan, Turkey, and with the Sioux Indians; community de velopment work in El Salvador; re search analysis for the Tennessee Valley Administration, making a study of juvenile delinquency for a community agency. Several foreign students have returned to their homes to apply their training and one holds the position of Personal Assistant to the Charge d' Affairs of Pakistan at the Pakistan Em bassy in Tokyo. A five-year grant from the Chris topher Reynolds Foundation makes it possible for Haverford to offer fellowships of from $2,500 to $4,- 000 to a few mature people who, preferably, have had experience with agencies of the United Na tions or of the U. S. government. Members of the present gradu ate unit have been spending six weeks (Dec. 21-Feb. 4) in on-the job training with the Cherokee Indians of North Carolina. This is the second time the Indians have invited the students. This year they wanted the group to join them in a house-to-house survey of the needs of their Big Cove Commu nity. Women's Athletic Association Banquet Plans for the annual Women's Athletic Association banquet are being made by the W.A.A. Cabi net members headed by a com mittee composed of Ruth Burton and Betty Jane Beaman. The banquet will be held in Meyers' Tea Room, Friday even ing, April 2. Entertainment will be provided by the various classes, each one being responsible for a skit or act. Awards are presented each year at this time to all those who have earned numerals, letters, or sweat ers. Investigations are being made by the cabinet members concern ing the possibility of awarding a blazer in Guilford's colors, rather than an athletic sweater. The jackets would probably be char coal gray trimmed in maroon with a Guilford College seal on the pocket, if the plans are approved by all the girls. All Guilford College women, au tomatically members of the W.A.A., are invited to attend this dinner. Transportation will be fur nished. Baseball By Lee "Jake" Jacobson Coach Maynard and the Guil ford College fans this past week got their first glimpse of the 1954 model Quakers. If after it was all over, the Ol' Perfessor Maynard still had any doubts it could only have been on the score of whether his own lads would make it. The old weatherman has thus far played havoc with the prac tice sessions, however the boys are slowly rounding into shape, and by the time our first game rolls around they should be ready to go. The practice sessions have thus far been concentrated on fielding and batting drills, and by the time this issue reaches your hands the boys will have played a few intra-squad games. The squad thus far shapes up like this: Leary on first, Schmidt Adams, or Beck on second, Cashen on short, Charlton, Atkins or Angel on third, and Percise catching; however the second, third, and shortstop positions still remain in great doubt and only time will tell who will win out a starting posi tion at these three spots. The start outfield figures to be made up of R. Redfern in left, Chic Trafford in center, and Bill Francis in right. The pitching chores will be hand led by Davis, Mikles, and Dowd, righthanders, and by Mike Jones, the only lefthander on the squad. The squad also will be deep with reserves, and this should serve to give us a strong bench, if all goes well. Since the Quakers will take time out from practice during the spring holiday they will have to be in top shape by March 20th. Our first home game will kick off the season for this years Quak ers. The game will be held on April 3rd, against East Carolina.
