After two weeks with the Irni gers, Gloria left for a two-week tour of Switzerland. This included New Hockey Team On Thursday, September 24, a group of Guilford men and Dean Atwell met to discuss plans for a hockey team. Everyone that at tended this meeting agreed that it would be unsatisfactory to ex ist as an independent team as there would be a lack of competition as well as lack of funds. The possi bility which was unanimously agreed upon, was to join the Greensboro Youth Program League which not only supplies all the necessary equipment, but also plays each other twice a week be fore the Greensboro Generals take the ice. Additional practice games will take place early in the morn ing two Sundays a month. The experience of Dean Atwell who will be the coach and advisor should prove to be a great bene fit to the team. The Guilford hockey team started skating on October 8. All students who are interested in the new hockey team are asked to contact Dean Atwell. ROSE QUALIFIES FOR A.D.C.

Gloria is an active and well known figure at Guilford. She is a Dana scholar and secretary of her junior class. A great deal of her spare time this year is devoted to giving lectures concerning her ex periences this summer to various Greensboro organizations. Founded in 1932, the Experi ment in International Living is a Private, non-profit organization in he field of international education. It is basically an educational pro gram which endeavors to teach oeople of one country to live with those of other countries, the goal being that of advancing world peace at the individual level. The members taking part in the pro gram are introduced to the country on its own terms, and through tli3 eyes of its natives. M.S.C. Meets The first official meeting of the M.S.C. was held on September 23. President Gary York explained that Vice-President Pete Benjamin was no longer a student at Guil ford. He announced that he had selected Doug Schumann as his Vice-President, deriving the au thority to do so from the Student Legislature. Gary informed the members of the M.S.C. of a desk which had been stolen from the lobby of the New Men's Dorm, and asked them to look for information leading to its return. Dean Atwell mentioned that Mrs. Mathus was concerned about the smoking which was go ing on at the front door of the library, and asked that each repre sentative mention this in his sec tion meeting. The next meeting was held on Wednesday night, September 30. 3ert Rubin mentioned that the Student Legislature had decided to look into the matter of having re frigerators in the dormitories. In accordance with a request from ihe Student Legislature, the M.S.C. representative would be respon sible for enforcing certain rules pertaining to the use of these refrig erators in the dorms. The selling of any food or drinks in the dorm by students is prohibited by state health laws, and all refrigerators will be checked to insure that they do not become "health hazards," with rotting food, etc. The Campus Chest drive was launched by Gary York, and he asked each representative to spend one hour that night in his section soliciting funds. Approximately fifty per cent of the goal for men students living on campus was raised this first night. Gary then appointed Mickey Shore to be in charge of securing cars for use in the Homecoming parade. The group elected Porter Dawson as their Parliamentarian to replace Tom Taylor. Gary stated that on October 13, the first joint meeting of the W.S. C., M.S.C. and Student Legisla ture will be held. Gary also men tioned that he wanted to begin planning the proposed M.S.C. weekend. This would consist of a concert Saturday afternoon in Dana by someone such as Mary Wells, followed hv a combo that night. It would all be free to Guil ford College students. The following men have been elected alternates to the M.S.C. for their respective dorm sections: in the New Men's Dorm, Dave Mockford for Ist South; Lawrence Buffaloe for Ist North; Bobin Ty ler for 2nd South; A. J. Carr for THE GUILFORDIAN Orientation Evaluation by TOM TAYLOR The Class of 1968 officially met Guilford College on a cool Sunday afternoon approximately three weeks ago, an afternoon that had been anticipated for at least four months by the Student Legislature and the subsidiary Freshman Ori entation Committee. Few students realize the task of planning and co ordinating a project involving over 300 new students—the responsi bility is tremendous. It was the purpose of the Committee to pro vide a program that would serve as an introduction and as an orien tation to membership in the stu dent body of Guilford College. Although the week-long sched ule of events contained portions that many of the new students did not find enjoyable, the goals of the overall operation seem to have been successful. An introduction to any subject, in order to be com plete, must present the gestalt or the total picture of the subject. Therefore, such attributes of Guil ford College as tests to determine knowledge or lack of knowledge, lectures to explain the background and program of the college, and presentations to clarify certain rules that must be observed in comunity living are the necessary bases for the student undertaking a course of study. The seemingly endless rounds of convocations and meet ings become monotonous only when the participants feel that they themselves have absorbed all of the information that they deem necessary and essential to success at Guilford College. Often the measure of this success depends upon the degree to which one has devoted his time and attention to acquainting himself with his new environment. The social and recreational as pects of the orientation week were, as usual, the highlights of the week. The Social Committee did an outstanding job in carrying out its program, but significant was the genuine spirit of fellowship and friendliness that was the outgrowth of an event at the outset of the week, a square dance. With a pro fessional dance "caller" from Greensboro and his supply of ap propriate music, the students dis played a lively interest in each Quaker News The 1965 Quaker is striving this year, as it has in the past, to have an improved yearbook. This year the format has undergone many changes and we are looking for ward to a most successful produc tion. Since the student body is the main subject of the Quaker, your co-operation is essential!

In addition, Glenn White was recently elected repre sentative for 2nd Center Front in the New Men's Dorm. ¥. %■ %m " m - Beanie Business other and in the activity. Perhaps this sort of event could successfully be held again, before the students forget the fun of participation. The student leaders who partici pated in the events of Freshman Orientation Week are to be com mended for the sincere attitude of friendliness with which they wel comed the new arrivals. First im- Young Democrats The primary purpose of the Young Democrats' Club at Guil ford College is to interest people in politics. The attitude of many students toward politics is a very lax one. This situation is one which is contrary to that which should exist. At our first meeting we had Mr. Samuel Johnson, Chairman of Guil ford Y.D.C., to speak to the 32 students and faculty who attended. We hope in future to have other speakers who will enlighten us on the subject of politics and the Democratic Party. Our meetings will be every other week on Mon day nights. We will welcome your presence. •'COCA-COLA" ANO "COKE" AC PCOI3TCCO T*ADe.MAAK® is IK £Mmm Bg 7M it V '*& ■flpPf^^ l^nHH Singing goes better refreshed.

It is hoped that the overall impressions gained by the new stu dents from the entire program of the beginning of the 128 th year at Guilford College are impressions that convey a true interest in each individual. If that be true, then the program was undoubtedly successful. Social Committee The Social Committee is an or ganization consisting of twenty members elected in the spring of each year. Its purpose is to be the social co-ordinate for the students. The Social Committee sponsors combo parties, the Valentine Dance, and other dances during the week in the union. The Social Committee also plays an active part in the social environment of the campus. The committee has nume rous activities planned but they can only be successful with the whole-hearted support of the en tire student body. If a man would move the world, he first must move himself.
