T. isijOx athletes think MUCH OF CHINT l/EA “Chint Lea never attended Elon College, in fact he never attended any college.” “Chint” was reared on the farm but decided early in life that farming wasn't his call ing. While a very yoving man, he came to Burlington and started in the “Taxi l-!usiness.” It was a small business in the beginning, but it was Chint’s busine.ss and he put his whole time to it. Burling ton was small and “Chint’s” in come was in keeping with the town. He gave good service and played the game fair with every one, and has been amply reward ed. While his business was small, “Chint” started to carrying the Elon Boys from college to college. He has kept this uii, and every student that has made an Elon team since 1922 knows “Chint”. They like him, for he is a loyal friend and feels a keen interest in every contest Elon enter.s into. If Elon wins “Chint” rejoices, but if th,e tables are turned and Elon is defeated he takes it on the chin and says, “Boys you can’t win all the time, we’ll win the next game.” If it’s advertising the students need to put out the school paper, “Chint” takes his part of the space. If it’s a donation Elon needs to put over some plan the authorities have in mind, “Chint” can always be counted on for his part. When Elon meets Guilford, to morrow, old friendis will also meet as rivals. Charles Leonard and Wade “Potts” .lohnson, are stars of the Guilford eleven, and former team mates of Amos Shel ton, Fred Koury and Regdon Grundman members of this year’s varsity squad. jE.V H.\S carbied EI.ON ATHI,ETES FOR FIFI'ICKX YEA US For Jifteen years I have been* carrying the Elon boys to the v.nrious colleges in North Caro lina, Virginia, South Carolina .and other state.'! to play athletic con tests. I never send my drivers for it means much to me Just to as sociate with the BOYS. I w'ill ad mit that it seems a little sad to carry a good player for three or four years and see him graduate and leave, but eacli time it seems that some one comes along to take his place. I used to think when vve had Hap Perry, “Chubby”. Kirkland, Johnnie .Johnson, Wade JVlarlette, Flower and others, we couldn't possibly have others as good. They graduated and left and along came Pete Williams, Zeb Harring ton, Left Briggs, Dan Long New man, Shepherd and others to take their places. Now they are all gone but I find we still have a ; grouji of fine boys and some : mightly fine athletes, Elon never had a more loyal and harder working team than now, and I rejoice too when 1 think of the possibilities that ahead of this splendid group of young men. Elon is going places and C. A. LEA’S TAXI SERVICE EXPECTS TO BE WITH THEM tX)A()H ELLIS FY.SAI, SHELTON. F. B.. 60 COMPLIMENTS OF W. E. LOWE Elon College. CAIH so, 55, II. B. W. 1C. IvOWl'l LOYAL SVIB1H)UTEI{ OF ELON j F. O. I’erkins, ’34 is now trav eling I'or the L. Sonneborn and Son Co., 88 Lexington Ave., New York City. North Carolina is Mr. Perkins’ territory and he is mak ing his home at Eayetteville. Gym Classes For Co-Eds At the beginning of school w'hen the girls’ gymnasium class es; were organized a study of ten nis was begun. Classes were held on the courts and all the girls were given the chance to play. As soon the the weather became cooler the classes were held in the gymnasium. Since in-door classes have be gun the girls have been talcing exercises and playing some inter esting games. The girls have play ed basketball some. Last week the classes were each divided into two groups and a captain chosen for each group. Basketball and other kinds of tournaments will be held between the groups. Miss Floyd Childs has the gen eral supervision of the work. During the year it is planned to study several different types of games, and maybe tapping and clogging. W. E. bowe has been one of Elon’s loyal supporters for many years. VV’hile he never attended college he'.-e, he ha.s made this his home and always found time from nis worl; to do Elon a good turn. Very few, if any have mear.t as much to our athletic' teams as Mr. Lowe. Several students in school nere now were put in touch with Elon by Mr. Lowe. He has been known to go out of his way, bearing his own expenses, to see prospective students for Elon. A few years ago Mr. Lowe came in witlr three applications and room fees at one time. Elon appreciates the loyalty of its alumni and friends. The stud ent body could never have reach ed 461 if it had not been for the loyal and thoughtful friends who have so unselfishly gave of their i time and effort. | On Thursday evening, Novem ber 7, Professor Fletcher Moore, Miss Chamblee, Profeseor Steer, Mrs. Steer, Ralph Caskey, Oliver Cook, James White, Roy Russell and Miss Young attended the or gan recital at Duke University Chapel, given by Palmer Chris tian, an outstanding American or ganist. Dr. Thompson Speaks Here On Monday night, November 18, | Dr. E. W Thompson, professor of Rural Sociology at Duke Univer sity, delivered .a lecture in the society hall, as guest speaker for the newly organized Social Science club. Dr. Thompson chose as his subject “Language . and Race Re lations, and Illustrated it with an ecdotes which he drew from his own ))erson|al experiences with “pidgin”—English while he w'as studying in Hawaii. The lecture was followed by a brief discussion and after the dis cussion the members of the club held .1 short business meeting. What I want to say this week is Beat Guilford! Remember, the student body can help the team win by organ ized yelling. Let’s show our team that we are behind it until the game is over. St llLITJ'ER, 65, K. E. JONES, 50, Q. B. NIOVVSOME, 54, Q. B.
