C., MAY 8, 1918 QUAKERS WIN SIX STRAIGHT GAMES ON SOUTHERN TRIP ZAOHARY NAMED "IRON MAN" With six victory to their credit, our famous baseball team returned home Sunday morning after a week's trip into South Carolina. The first two games were played at Coluinubia against U. S. C. Of the first game the State, South Carolina's leading daily paper, says: "Carolina's hope of ibreaking then losing streak contracted on the road were sent glimmering early in yes terday's game against Guilford Col lege of North Carolina. The Game cooks were defeated when a husky southipaw went to the mound for the Quakers and moiwed down the home hopes from the first. The Guil'ford hurler was Zachary, a great college pitcher. He iwon his game by a score of 7 to 1 and should have had a shutout. The left-handier showed just albout everything a college pitcher needs. He found troulble controlling his curve ball but he had so much else he didn't need a hook •and could have dispensed with it en tirely and had. an even easier time. His fast ball jumped so that it could be seen from the bleachers and he used a good knuckle ball very af fectively as a change of pace. He forced 15 of the Birds to miss the third strike. Carolina's one run was scored when Ballanger dropped a peg to the plate and in this inning, Zachary fanned 1 three hitters with the bases full. He also struck out three in the ninth. "Bill Wolfe ipitched a fair game for the home team but suffered from poor fielding, some of the loose work not being carried in the error col umn. "Marlette played a good fielding EYES TO THE FRONT! FORWARD Y. W. C. A. Enjoys Mrs. Davis. Without a doubt the most inspir ing message of the year came to the Y. W. C. A. on last Thursday even ing when Mrs. Dairis spoke to us. "Eye to the front, forward," said Mrs. Davis, "is a command which we need at this time and especially the girls and young women, when there is so much sorrow and sadness to divert the mind from the usual development." She then quoted from an article in the Independent; "The outward sign of a conquerer is a fixed gaze that never falters, never flinches, never swerves. Your aim is as l sure as your eyes are steady. The first thing the ball player has to learn is to keep his eyes on the ball. The first thing the business ,man has to learn is to keep his eyes on the business. Most men M-e defeated because their lives are a medley and jumble of distractions that keep the mind's attention flut tering, while the main purpose of life is neglected and forgotten.

On Tuesday evening, April 30th, at 7:15, four of Guilford's music students gave the first of a series of music recitals. The music rendered was of a very high order and quite up to the high standard that the ef ficient instructor, Miss Pap worth, has set for it. The selections were well >chosen and showed that the per formers have an appreciation for true art. Greig, Ruibinstein, Godard, Padereweski and other noted com- Dos'ers were represented on the pro gram. The vocalists of the evening were Miss Juanita Reece and Mr. Ralph Farlaw, with Miss Papworth as ac companist. With xVlisses Martha Caudle and Donna Mcßane at the piano "Shepherds and Shepherd esses," "Tarentalla" and other selec tions were given. The recital was enjoyed ,by all present and every one left feeling that they had had a most pleasant evening with noted composers of all nationalities. A recital of this type will be given by the music department each Tues day thru May 21st. "HOMEWOOD" SCENE OF JOLLY PARTY Weather Fails to Daunt Ei^hteeners. Drizzling rain and mud cause no sinking hearts to the eighteeners when there is a reception "in the wind." Even last Tuesday evening found them all robbed- and ready, with merry hearts and cheery smiles, ready to embark for "Homewood" for an evening with the Misses White—and emlbark they did. With Lawrence Grissom at the helm they sailed forth for a ipleasant and event ful evening. The cheery lights of quaint little "Homewood" greeted the guests and made every one feel at home at once. Gertrude Cronk met the guests at the door. Misses Julia and Adelaide White then conducted them into the social centre, where they were greet ed Iby Mrs. Nicholson, Prof, and Mrs. Davis. The Seniors, like every one else, enjoy an opportunity for displaying their talents and ample opportunity was give them on this evening. Each one was presented with a slip of paper u,pon which ha.l been drawn at random a peculiar and uneven line. From th'e line some kind of im ap-e was o be made. Various indeed were the specimens 'produced Any thing from a "pine rooter" or a pre historic horse to a handsome young specimen of Adam's race. Marie Clegg succeeded best in producing a real drawing and was presented with the prize—some tempting chocolates. Even tho Marie alone got all thy chocolates, everybody had a share of the deliicious cream and cake punch and mints that was served. Time didn't lag on this evening as it does when it's French or History or Latin period, and so 10 o'clock found once more the chauffeur setting forth with his car go. The ride home wae quite as eventful as the one earlier in the evening.

Miss Clark, who has been connect ed with the Student Government Association at Wisconsin University, gave an interesting talk at this meet ing. She sipoke about the girls who •should be on the student jouncil, the spirit that they and the association members should have, and the re sult. She said that Student Govern ment was not an end in itself but a means of developing personal re sponsibility, loyalty, and independ ence in the girls. She emphasized the fact that girls who had to think for themselves in college would be stronger and better fitted for life. As Miss Clark knows and under stands student government problems, the girls were very fortunate in get ting her to speak to them. NUMBER 28
