February 12, 1960 Kfsf Sfiositic&pe. By HERMAN CLARK Well, many days have gone by now since I have attempted to keep you informed on all the latest sports news. Since the lac off for semester exams, the local team has been on several road trins —all of which haven't proved to be very fruitful. , . s l uad has made a trip to the state of Virginia to play The Division of William and Mary in Norfolk, and the pre exam game with this group showed up to be a very close contest. At this game, the team did an excellent job for the first three quarters and after that it looked like nothing they shot would co in. They still showed the fine Quaker spirit and fought until the end. A few days after their return they traveled to Catawba to tangle with the Indians, who are really opening the eyes to some teams this mt ar "T are beginning to be looked upon with more respect. They have pulled quite a few surprising upsets. Again our boys did their best, but as usual they had too much height for us and iust overpowered us. This past Saturday night they traveled to Wilson to play Atlantic Christian College, along with the cheerleaders, who spent the night there. The team again faced a much more experienced team; one who had many "tall folks" on it. The Quakers are still being led by Don Lineberry with a 24-point average per game—also second in the North State Conference records. Along with Don there is Jon Burwell who is trying to keep his average high, and doing this especially well in the free-throw department. Harold Braxton, a freshman, is seeing a lot of action now and is doing a fine job of rebounding. A newcomer to the squad after exams is Ray Sharpe, a guard and a fine ball handler. As a new Quaker basketball member is Joe Jeffries, a six-foot-five lad from Chicago, Illinois, who trans ferred from Frederick Junior College. He will be held out so that he will have two full seasons in which to play. He can be seen playing intramural ball now for Yankee Stadium. There was only one loss for the team at the end of the first semester and that was Bill Thrower. They will miss him very much, for Bill had height and a good eye for that basket. With only one more game at home and only three more away, give the team all your support—every bit helps. The last home game is February 16, with Catawba—you all come ! ! Student ■ Faculty Basketball Game To Be Held Next Week The Monogram Club is sponsor ing a basketball game between the students and the faculty of the college next Friday night at eight o'clock in the Guilford gym nasium. Everyone is invited. GUILFO ? D GUILFORD DAIRY Your Hometown Dairy CA*M COMW ' % | MAPf UP TVW FINAL EXAM*. OH$ I LPT sLir .

It will be the first musical production of its kind to be staged at Guilford College. THE GUILFORDIAN | p I o R INTRAMURAL! By Datiso Volleyball is out and basket ball has taken full command of the situation. New North made a clean sweep of the tournament by defeating Yankee Stadium in the finals. Such outstanding play form Dick Cain, Jim Pendry, Jer ry Davis, and Steve Helton made it a rough season for the compe tition. Stadium received some very fine play from Harold James and Brodie Baker while Archdale and Center Section could thank Dick Wiley, Carey Reece, and Bob Rosier (Archdale) plus Jim Chambers, Ken Hedrick, and Groome Fulton (Center) for their good fortunes. The teams finished in the tournament in the previous order and the regular season in this line: New North, Center, Archdale, and Yankee Stadium. The volleyball nets are down and now all attentions are direct ed toward basketball. In the "A" league, Stadium, Center, English, New North and the Day Hoppers look like the teams to watch. How ever, teams like Archdale, Old North South, and the Day Romp ers cannot be sold short. The com petition is going to be very keen if the first few games are any in dication of the season. The fight for those tournament berths will be something. As of the writing of this article Yankee Stadium and Center were the only two unde feated quints remaining and their clash being one of the last of the season, each team has a tough row to hoe. From here it looks this way; Stadium has the mater ial, Center has the scorers, Eng lish has the balance, New North has the spirit, and the Day Hop pers have the brawn. It appears that no team will walk away with the top spot and least of all the tournament. This could well be the most competitive intramural basketball season we've had in quite a while. The "B" league presents a lit tle different picture with two teams standing quite a bit in the forefront. English with such greats as "Fall Down" Simpson, "Excitable" Durham, "Wrong Goal" Hupfer and "Hooks" Opau ski will provide thrills and spills for the junior league fans while on the other hand the Center 'Playbabies' featuring such greats as "Jumpin' Jim" Chambers, F. C. Warren, "French" Wagoner, and "Sweets" Burrows will pro vide ample competition. Other teams which bear watching in clude Old North South, Stadium, New North, Archdale, and Day Hops No. 3. Let's all support our respective teams, whether playing or cheer ing, and try to be considerate of the referees. P. S. Ping pong starts soon ! ! o "What's that you have in your button-hole?" "Why, that's a chrysanthe mum." "It looks like a rose to me." "Nope, you're wrong. It's a chrysanthemum.'' "Spell it." "K-r-i- .... by golly, that is a i rose!" QUAKERS LOSE THREE WILLIAM AND MARY The Quaker cagers suffered a loss at the hands of William and Mary College, of Norfolk, Virgin ia last week. The final score saw the Quakers defeated 101-70. Don Lineberry led the laser's attack with 26 points for the night. DR. SMITH SPEAKS Continued, from Page One and to provide both fellowship and worship for students from the BSU's involved.

Bottled under authority of The Coca-Cola Company by CATAWBA Th e Catawba Indians rolled up their fifth straight victory by downing the Quakers, 88-58 last week. Once again Don Lineberry was Guilford's high scorer with 19 points. Jon Burwell also hit the double figue column, contributing 16 points to the Quaker cause.

Don Lineberry and Jon Burwell each got 16 points for the losers. o Two struggling young artists were discussing their respective prospects. "I'm not doing so well. I paint ed a picture for a woman but she didn't like it. She said it made her look just like a monkey." "I hope you were diplomatic about it." "Yes. I told her she should have thought of that before she had her picture painted.
