Pat Gil breath, director of the Revelers Club, moderated the try-outs for Eugene O'Neill's "Long Day's Journey Into Night." Fifteen stu dents sat in front of Pat, next to the curtain, and read the five parts, each having having his chance. Some read with the gusto of a veteran, others mumbled, and fought with each word. Pat perused the group critically and paced the floor at times. Some students stood and read, setting the mood of this powerful drama, which O'Neill meticulously as cribed. Charlie White towering above Barbara Hagy tried the father's part. Sally Peterson and Scott Parker read as everyone looked on. At the end of the try-out period, everyone had gotten a part, for a play can use assistance not only in acting, but also in the techni cal areas. The following day, the Call Board bore the names of Barbara Hagy, Charlie White, Scott Parker, Sally Peterson, and an old hand at Guilford productions, Bill Stern berg who is now doing graduate study at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro. The cast began closed rehearsals on Monday, February 6. We are all looking forward to a great play. THE GUILFORDI AN Women's Intramurals by Linda Mercer -The W.A.A. has begun its intra mural schedule with a fine show of interest and participation by the women students. The turnout for volleyball was the largest seen in several years and was continu ous throughout the series. The volleyball champs for the regular season were the girls of N.W.D. third floor. The Mary Hobbs girls won the Ail-Star games. Now die W.A.A. basketball season has begun with a fairly large group signed up to partici pate. In fact, there are enough to form five and perhaps seven teams. Founders and Shore are fielding one team each, with two for Hobbs and one to three for N.W.D. The All-Star games will be among four teams, one from each dorm. For those who prefer a quiet, non-violent form of recreation, the Ping-Pong tournament is begin ning in the next two weeks. All those who are interested are urged to sign up now. The W.A.A. thanks the women students for their interest and par ticipation and urges them to con tinue the fine effort. Kauffman, Bregard Praised (Continued from page 1) was the winning of Bob Kauffman to the idea of coming to Guilford College), will perhaps include these years in what will be labeled For Quaker sports historians, after the "Jerry Steele era." Needless to say, the Quaker faithful are hoping that this era will extend far beyond the time when the big Scarsdale youth makes his exit. However, Bob Kauffman, good student, good campus citizen, and good'' athlete, has made his mark. And, Coach Steele is of the firm opinion that he has much more writing to do. "Bob learns and grows as a person and an athlete as he goes along. He definitely has not reached his peak." The Guilford coach notes that "Bob is carrying the pressure bet ter. So much is expected of him by all of us—and he is his own severest critic." Opposing coach es and players have marveled pub licly over his physical attributes, which include a classic build, brute strength, and cat-like quickness. "Few observers understand the preparation that go into the de fense of the other team for Bob " Steele says. Once in a while some one will decide he will plav Kauffman one-on-one, and the re sult is usually disastrous. Most recently, a 6'9" defender found himself with four fouls in a very few minutes; while Kauffman had scored 14 points —including five "stuffs." •• "His scoring and rebounding are just a part of his contribution," says Coach Steele. "The defensive pressure put on him helps open up good shots for our other play ers. He covers the lane on defense, and his quick reaction from de fense to offense makes the fast break possible for us, even though we are not a fast team. His reaction from offense to defense allows him to go to the offensive board and yet get back on defense in time to make it tough on the other fellow." It is a known fact that the Guilford Coach does not dote on statistics as a means of elevating his performers in the public eve. He agrees that he could have maneuvered Kauffman into higher ranking in several departments. 'The score board is the great statistic, and Bob believes in this as much as I do." Nevertheless, he has impressive statistics. He is averaging 24 points plus per game (20 plus both his freshman and sophomore years), way in front of any pivot man in the con ference. He is averaging fifteen Second-class postage paid at Greensboro, N. C. Published weekly except during vacation and examination periods by the students of Guilford College . Advisor Gene Key Sports Editor Dennis Abramowitz Advertising Manager Glen Cooke Circulation Manager Ken Martin Photographers Stephen Bowles, Charles Strowd STAFF WRITERS Lynda Stedman Mike Rinehardt Emily Hedrick Rankin Whittington Janet Ghezzi Jenifer Schier Letters to the Editor Dear Ed., Is it a professor's perogative to walk into class two or three min utes late, and then keep his class seven or eight minutes late, every day? This sort of thing is excusable once in a while, but it becomes rudeness when it is done consist ently. By keeping students late, a professor often encroaches on other professors' class time, and he generally disrupts schedules. May there be change, for harmo ny's sake. Sincerely, RANKIN WHITTINGTON Dear Editor, As spring elections draw near, it has become apparent that lead ership is an unknown quality on Guilford campus. According to the constitutional requirements, only two students are qualified to run for Legislature president for the coming academic year. This is not to say that these two people are not competent leaders, but it seems that competition and enthusiasm for student offices' are severely lacking. Part of this deficiency in leadership is due to a rigid con- rebounds per contest, and is shoot ing foul shots at a 79 per cent clup—very unusual for a "big" man. He has been among the national leaders in field goal ac curacy, (66 per cent currently) for two years, even though he shoots a great deal from outside. In his latest outing, he liitd 27 rebounds, along with 10 of 11 attempts from the field—plus 7 of 9 from the free throw stripe. Sports writers and basketball huffs often draw comparisons be tween the Guilford Junior and other "big men" in "big time" basketball. They also speculate on whether he is a "pro" prospect; and how he would fare as a tight end in professional football (at least one professional team has asked for particulars). His coach does not make comparisons, but says "If someone has a better pivot, we would surelv love to have him." He says flatly that he equals or outranks all previous Carolinas Conference "big" men, and that he is a definite profes sional prospect. Steele adds that Kauffman's re bounding statistics are deceptive, pointing to the fact that "When he competes on the boards, he is not only going up against the best in the league, lie is competing with good rebounders in Pat (Moriarty. 6'6", 220), Leon (Young, 6'5", 195), and Ed (Fellers, 6'5", 195). A case in point is the last outing with Presbvterian, when Moriarty was injured and saw'little action; and Young sat out the contest with an injury. He brought down a record 27 rebounds. The Guilford mentor shrugs off occasional critics who point to the fact that his big pivot is often in foul trouble. "When you are the best, attention is drawn to you. The way he goes to the boards, foiih'ng is a definite hazard. But don't wait for me to tell him to hold something back! This year he has been able several times to come through in late stages with four fouls on his back." Steele doesn't lie awake nights wondering what he will do when his star departs. "We are just hap py to have him with us for another year." As for opposing coaches, it is a fair guess that they are counting off the days. February 24, 1967 stitution which limits rather than encourages the office seeker, and part is due to the usual apathy of the majority of Guilfordians. After a talk with Dr. Lanier, the Sophomore class officers are in the process of planning a leadership conference at Quaker Lake this spring. About 35 students (prefer ence given to Sophomores) who have shown competence in student offices and have potential ability will discuss the responsibilities and qualities of a student leader. From his first day at Guilford, Dr. Lanier has put a tremendous amount of faith in us and we have let him and ourselves down. It seems as though there are so many problems at Guilford that a chat with Lanier about any single problem becomes a two-hour criti cal evaluation of the Guilford stu dent. Lanier sees hope despite such problems as apathy, lack of leadership, a deficiency in relig ious concerns and specifics (ie. no public speaking or journalism courses offered, no payment or academic credit given to campus publication editors, etc.). Despite the fact that it has been the trend to look negatively on these prob lems, Dr. Lanier emphasizes that other campuses have succeeded in changing apathy to action and Guilford can too. But how do we start this action? We need to act collectively but we need strong leaders to coordi nate efficiency, to open channels of comnttinication, to take charge of chapel programs (we could make them into something really worthwhile without too much ef fort) and to present more extra curricular intellectual challenges. How about turning the language lab into a coffee house complete with hot cider, teas, espresso and folk guitar and poetry? Other campuses did this years ago come on Guilford, catch up, we're years behind the times. CINDY SAX WCOG 1320 NO. 1 AT EVERY COLLEGE IN THE WORLD (Would you believe Greensboro?)
