THE GUILFORDIAN
VOLUME IV.
GUILFORD SCRUBS DEFEATED
Mixed Aggregation of Nondescripts
Lack Team Work.
With a few hours' notice on last
Saturday, Manager Marlette and Cap
tain Stanley whipped into shape the
scrubs who remained at the college
and journeyed to Winston-Salem to
meet the strong liigth School team,
State championship contenders. The
game resulted in a 25 to 0 score for
the home team. The scrub team was
composed of only six regular second
team men, owing to the fact that the
other five were with the varsity at
Wake Forest. Winston scored a
touchdown in each quarter, but in all
but the second quartet failed to kick
goal. The work of Crute and Davis,
of Winston, was of a high order,
these twio men scoring all points
made by their team. Their attack
was thru tackle and around the ends,
with the completion of three long for
ward passes. Captain Stanley starred
for Guilford, with Johnson, Dorsett,
D. Finch, Tremaln, Barnard and W.
Finch ipl'aying a steady, aggressive
game. The contest was well played
and clean throuout and final score by
no means showing the strength of the
Guilford team.
The team was royally treated, the
entertainment ending with a recep
tion at the High School in the even
ing. The line up was:
Winston—Glenn, c.; Turner, r.g.;
O'Brien, 1.g.; Crawford, r. t.; Dalton,
1. t.; Morley, r. e.; Pulliam, 1. e.;
Kirk, q. b.; Conley, r. h.; Davis, 1. h.;

1. h.; Stanley (Capt) q. b; Thrift, f.b.

GUILFORD COLLEGE, N. C., OCTOBER 17, 1017.
BAPTISTS HELD TO
THREE TOUCHDOWNS
Crimson and Grey Puts Up Plucky
Fight But is Defeated 20-0.
The third football game for the
Quakers this season was staged at
Wake Forest on last Saturday after
noon. It resulted in a 20-0 victory
for the Wake Forest eleven.
The game was in several res.pects
the best of this season so far. Altho
she lost to the Baptists, Guilford has
the best of reasons to be satisfied
with and proud of her team. Guil
ford had the misfortune to have Bry
ant put out by injuries in about the
first three minutes of play, and this
more than any other factor lost the
game. The great burden of the back
field work then fell upon Newlin and
Jones, the only regular back field
men left.
The first half saw no scoring and
appeared to be anybody's game, with
perhaps a good shade of advantage
to Guilford. The ball was never close
.to either goal and this period was
particularly marked by Captain New
lin's line plunging, and by the work
of Reddick at end, Fort at center,
and Zaclhary at guard.
The second half, however, showed

THE LITERARY CLUB ORGANIZES
The Literary Club spent an inter
esting half hour last Wednesday
evening discussing possible subjects
for the winter's study. Many ex
pressed their appreciation of the op
portunity, offered them last year, of
studying Greek literature, the real
basis after all for the study of every
literature. All had such good sug
gestions to offer for the coming win
ter's program that it was thought
best to postpone the final decision till
the next meeting. For the first few
meetings the club plans to make a
thorough study of Chaucer, his age,
his gifts and his influence on Eng
lish literature.
Mr. Edwards, Mr. Guess, Mr. Rog
ers, Miss Noles and Miss Roberts
were elected members of the club.
Mr. Balderston, Miss Osborne and
Miss Edwards were appointed on the
executive committee; Dr. Hobbs, Mrs.
Hobbs, Mr. Brinton, Dr. Meredith
and Miss Roberts on the program
committee.
At the last meeting of the Church
History Seminar, Arthur Lineberry
gave an account of Paul's first mis
sionary journey. Nigal Marlette out
lined the first Jerusalem Conference,
and its results.
Y. W. C. A. PICNIC
MUCH ENJOYED
Annual llattle Ground Affair a Suc
cessful Combination of Son^s,
Kats, Fine Weather and Good Spir
its.
The Y. W. C. A. girls had waited
and longed for the coming of October
—the time of the annual picnic.
Finally the day dawned, and it seem
ed that autumn donned her loveliest
;own for the occasion, for the day
was as nearly ideal as even the mo ft
fastidious picnickers could desire.
Promptly at one-thirty, there was
hurrying of feet, shouts of delight,
and words of caution, which showed
lat the longed-for time had really
come, and soon a merry crowd was
on its way to t'he historic battle
ground.
After a safe arrival, Miss Louise
proclaimed that every girl could do
as she pleased, but everybody must
be back at five o'clock. Accordingly,
the group was soon scattered, some
hastening to see the various monu
ments, others seeking the placid
beauty of the lake, and others the
lovely retreats of the red and gold
woods. Everywhere could be heard
happy voices, and here and there
could be seen groups who were let
ting Mr. Brownie focus on some spot
which, as a memento, was especially
desired.
As five o'clock drew near, girls
:ould be seen straggling in from all
directions, carrying in their hands
forked sticks, which later were found
to be very useful. Already a fire had
been ligfhted, and Miss Gainey was in
the midst of coffee-making—the se
cret of whose excellence is alone
known to her. Soon the Whole band
of girls was comfortably seated
around the glowing fire with
thoughts of what would soon come.
Each girl ho'wever was patient and
'oyal enough to join heartily in the
?ood old college songs. After this
there was evidence that the (hopes of
that hungry mob were by no means
groundless. Ravenous appetites were
satisfied by such products of culinary
art as: Sandwiches, pickles, coffee,
persimmon pudding, cake, grapes,
etc. There was much fun over the
roasting of the "puppies"—some of
which showed a natural antipathy
for forked sticks and a distinct pref
erence for the glowing embers. Aft
er this sumptuous repast had been
sufficiently enjoyed, orders were giv
en for every girl to seek her vehicle
of conveyance. With yells, laughter
and songs, the happy party wended
its way home, and all too soon enter
ed the precincts of the college camp
us. As each girl sought her dormi
tory slie inwardly or outwardly ac
knowledged that the day had been
truly one of joy and pleasure.
Miss Louise Osborne conducted the
morning collection last Sunday, and
spoke most helpfully on the worth
and value of ideals in life.
