THE GUILFORDIAN VOLUME 11. ATHLETICS Guilford Loses to A. & M., but Wins From Wofford and Trinity. On last Monday afternoon, April 10, we met with our second defeat of the season when we lost to A. & M. in Greensboro by a 3to 2 score. Considering the cold weather and all other things it was a very good game. The main feature of the game was the large number of strike-outs. Worth and Zachary between them fanned 12 of the Farmer boys, while Weath ers and Evans retired just 15 of our men by the strike-out method. Worth began the hurling for Guilford, but was replaced by Zachary in the sixth inning as a result of the A. & M. move to the front. Zachary completed the hurling for Guilford ''in a true workman-like manner." In the eighth inning we made a move to ward the lead, but were unable to make proper connection with the sphere as it was hurled by Evans, who had gone in this inning to save his team from defeat.

The "Holy City" "THE HOLY CITY" GIVEN BY THE MEMBERS OF THE GUILFORD CHORUS. For some time the ]>eo|>le o! Guilford have been looking fo - ward to hearing Gaul's "Holy City," given by members of the Guilford chorus, and 011 Sunday evening, April lOth, they had their expectations realized. It is true that the chorus here was unable to give the cantata is well as the choruses ot' the Nor mal and Guilford combined in Greensboro on March 19th and 2Gtli, but it was rendered crediblv here. The students have been faithfully practicing 011 this can tata for several months and the manner in which it was presented showed what the chorus could give with the help of its patient director, Miss Papworth. The soloists were: Miss Mar garet Glenn, contralto; Miss Pauline White, soprano, and Prof Moore, bass. Beginning with the processioL al, "Oh, Mother, Dear Jerusalem," the following program was carried out : part 1. 1. Introduction (Instrumental). 2. Chorus, tenor solo and quar tet. 3. Chorus. 4. Air: Eye Hath Not Seen contralto. 5. Chorus Treble and alto voices; tenor and bass voices. 0. Chorus—Thine is the King dom. PART 11. 7. Intermezzo (Instrumental). 8. Bass solo and choral sanctus. 9. Air—Come, Ye Blessed—con tralto. 10. Air: These Are They Which Came—soprano. 11. Quartet and chorus. 12. Chorus—Great and Marvel ous are Tliv Works. LITERARY CLUB. The Literary Club was delight fully entertained by Mrs. Hobbs on the evening of its regular meet ing, April 12th. The evening was given over to the reading of Soph ocles' "Electra," the parts being assigned as follows: Orestes—Dr. L. L. Hobbs. Electra—rMs. Meredith. Clytemnestra—Miss Osborne. Aegisthus—C. O. Meredith. Pylades—Miss Benbow. Chorus—Miss Ayer. Chrysothemis—Miss Gainey. Aged Attendant—Mr. Brintm. NUMBER 27 Y. W. C. A. Notes This week three Sophomore girls conductaed the regular pray er meeting. Beatrice Lewallen read a Scripture lesson from the 37th Psalm and Bern ice Pike sang "Somebody Did a Golden Dead." After the solo Deborah Brown read a well chosen selection from Arons Sweet Martin's book, ,"Be Good to Yourself." The optimis tic side of life that this author presents is the kind that made us forget tomorrow's troubles and quizes and listen. The advice he gives is to do some kindness every day for there is a great deal of gladness in good cheer, good will and encourage ment. The more we lling out the more we get back. We want the radium spirit. The radium burns and burns and still we cannot tell that it has lost any of its power. Sometimes we are willing to ac cord a few good traits to another, but we do so by several limita tions of if and but. Are we happiness radiators? Do we judge people by their mean tricks? If we strive to see the good in others our lives will be en riched and strengthened. A Blue Ridge Club has been or ganized. The girls seem to be in terested and we are hoping to have a large delegation at Blue Ridge this year. ZATASIAN NOTES.
