Page Four FRESHMAN CHAPEL COMMITTEE IS CONSCIENTIOUS AND BUSY TEAM People here at Guilford, like peo ple everywhere else, take a lot for granted. We know certain things will happen, and they always do. But why do these things happen? —because some group of hard working individuals has been at work. Many of these people have given much of their time, talent, and effort without even being no ticed or thanked. Such people are those serving on the Freshman Chapel Committee, a group about which most of us know little, except that it exists. Dean Davis is chairman of this committee. Members are John Hewlett, Bob Windsor, Marylyn Nielander, Thomas Butt, and Mar jorie Haworth. Faculty members are Dr. Lovejoy, Mrs. Feagons, and Mr. Deagon. These people work together, gathering ideas from the student body as to the kind of programs the students would like or feel need of. They then work to arrange for these programs. There are two main considerations, not to mention money. Will this program appeal to the students? Is it in keeping with the policy of the school? As one committee member said, "It is not easy to get programs that do not cost anything (the commit tee is given only a small alloca- Retreat Planned at Quaker Lake A weekend of fun and fellowship is planned at Quaker Lake, April 26-28. This lake retreat area is be ing used for the North Carolina State Conference for Y.M.C.A.'s, Y.W.C.A.'s and S.C.A.'s. The theme is "True Worship and the Academic Life," and the plat form topic is "What is the relation of our worship to our academic life?" With such a pertinent topic as this and such leaders as Dr. Malcolm McAfee, Department of Sociology, Davidson College, and Dr. Donald J. Selby, Department of Religion, Catawba College, and such an atmosphere as there is at Quaker Lake, the weekend should be a big success. There will be songs, recreation, discussion groups, worship services, and a movie. The retreat begins Friday at 4:00 p.m. and ends at 3:00 p.m. Sun day. Delegates from Guilford are being sent by the S.C.A. N. C.

We have to beg people to speak, and it seems as though they all want to speak on the same day." This member also pointed out that if a program did hot turn out to be as good as the chapel com mittee had anticipated the blame was often given them. In these cases, the chapel committee is dis appointed. Actually, their concern is as great, if not greater, than that of the'students. However, there have been few such programs this year. There have been several interesting speakers, programs taken charge of by the student organizations, films, and others. Perhaps the most interesting program of the yqar was the Freshman Talent Show. This was the first time this had ever been attempted as a chapel program here at Guilford. Another first was the polling of the chapel to find out what kind of programs stu dents liked best. Yes, the Freshman Chapel Com mittee works hard getting ideas from the students and planning for over 60 programs a year. It is true that we may hardly notice that they are on the job, but it is quite certain that we would notice it if they were not.

"I owe a man ten dollars," he explained, "and as he is leaving town today for some years, I want to catch him and pay hip the money." "You are excused," announced the judge in a very cold voice, "I don't want anybody on the jury who can lie like you." H "Glasses For Those Who Want The Best" 206 N. Elm Street Greensboro, N. C.

Office of Education found that it costs an average of SI,OOO a year for an undergraduate to attend a public college, whereas, in 1939, the average cost was $747. For a private college, the average today is $2,000, compared with SI,OOO in 1939. According to prediction, college costs in ten years, estimated to be six times as great, will take care of the present worry of being over crowded.—The Atlanta Journal.
