THE GUILFORDIAN VOLUME V. SECOND FLU OUT BREAK NOW OVER All Patients Getting Along Nicely The second flu outbreak at Guilford is now apparently over as no new cases have developed for over a week and a half. All the cases were fortunately light and no serious complications have occurred. Since January 10th whenj the van guard arrived at the infirmary 50 patients have been successfully cared for. At the present writing only a bare half dozen are under the im mediate care of the nurses. The success in handling the epidemic has been due to the untiring efforts of Miss Laura Worth, Dr. Williams and Miss Benbow, ably assisted by Les lie Barrett, Grady Mcßane and Joe Taylor. Assistant nurses have been employed both at the Cox Hall in firmary and New Garden. Dr. Wil liams in the midst of his labors was conquered by the disease he had so often conquered, but present reports are that he is getting along well. His Guilford patients sent him two and a half dozen carnations in ap preciation of his services. As the former outbreak was confined en tirely to the men thi6 one was al most altogether a feminist move ment, Hugh Moore, David White and Herman Raiford being the only mas culine representatives. NEW STUDENTS. Since things in general are assum ing a more natural aspect and the abnormal conditions of the times are agan arighting themselves, we are pleased to note the arrival on the campus of quite a number of new students and many former students cf Guilford. Up to the present date there have been eighteen, or nineteen new reg istrants for the spring term. Many of these are boys returning from the military camps, resuming their col lege work upon receiving their dis charge from service. To the old and new students alike, Guilford extends her heartiest welcome and appreci ates their interest in this institution It is evident that with their pres ence and enthusiastic cooperation, the college will be greatly benefit ted. Among those who have returned to Guilford are Roger Kisar, Hervie Williard, Norman Fox, Arthur Line berry, Jesse Wilson, Willie Lee Rudd. The new student brigade is composed of the following: Zenobia Evangeline Bagwell, Myrtle Edger ton, Frank McGee, Frank Casey, Charles Stratford; Patton, Williams, Kenneth -Clegg, John Gurney Fra zier, Phal Hodgin, J. Spot Taylofi*. Saturday evening from 6:30 to 8 Prof, and Mrs. Anscombe entertain ed in their apartments a number of friends. Those enjoying this de lightful occasion were Misses Grace Taylor, Elizabeth Mallonee, Kath leen Simpson, Luna Taylor, Naomi Tomlinson, Tom Stewart, Mary Dix on and Messrs. John Taylor, George Jarvis, and Spottswood Taylor, Jr. GUILFORD COLLEGE, N. C., JANUARY 29, 19 * FINANCIAL CAMPAIGN \ MAKING PROGRESS Two Quarterly Meetings Have So Far Been Canvassed. It is rather premature to make any definite statements regarding tlie campaign to raise $200,000 for Guilford College, but after two weeks of oanvasing President Bin ford and his assistants feel quite en couraged. So far the campaign has been confined to a canvas of the members of Deep River and New Garden Quarterly meeting of Friends. High Point, Greensboro and [Winston-/Salem have all re sponded heartily but as the canvas has not been entirely completed as yet in these localities no announce ments can be made at present. Considerable enthusiasm was man ifested in High Point and several members there propose that the quo ta be doubled. H. D. Lane, treas urer of Penn College, who was large ly instrumental in raising $400,000 for that institution has come from Oskaloosa, lowa, to assist with the work. Henry Bogue, a former Penn student with experience in canva6- ing, is also assisting. The future of Guilford is now at stake and the overwhelming importance of the struggle means that every friend of the college must go over the top. BASKET BALL SCHEDULE. January 27—Elon at Elon.

M. C. A. floor in their city. It was largely a practice game for our boys, and the players selected for Guilford had never worked to gether on the home floor. The Winston team was fast and well-balanced. The fact that we lost the game by a small margin doesn't speak so well for their team, since the court is ,probably the smallest in the State, and this gave them the ad vantage. The Winston players have never lost a game on their home floor. Frazier played the strong game for the Guilford team, and showed that he is to rank with the best for wards in the State. Guilford's line up was as follows: Forwards, Staf ford, captain, Taylor, McFarland; center, Frazier; guards, Anderson and Cox. Taylor was substituted for McFarland in second half. GUILFORD LOSES TO GREENSBORO Y. M. C. A. First Game of Season Lost by Score of 39-24. One of the fastest and most hotly contested games ever seen on the lo cal floor was played between the lo cal quint and the Greensboro Y. M. C. A. The Y. boys have the reputa tion of being one of the best teams in the State and enroll in their number some famous players of wide reputation. The Guilford team was much lighter than their opponents, but they played at top speed all the time and the issue of the game was in doubt until very near the end. Gaiilford was unable to work much combination due partly to their in ability to get the tip off. Jonas and Frazier starred for Guilford, while Lewis and Kellen berger excelled for Greensboro. The score at the end of the first half was 19 to 16 in favor of the visitors and the final score was 3 9 to 24 with Greensboro at the big end. The game was marked by the small num ber of fouls. The line up: Guilfordi Greensboro Jonas r. f. . . Kellenberger Frazier 1. f Lewis Taylor c McCauley Anderson r. g Oarson Stafford 1. g Breeden Field goals, Taylor 1, Jonas 5, Frazier 6, Lewis 7, Kellenberger 4, Carson 1, Beecher 1. Foul goals, McCauley 3. GET THE OLD "PEP" READY FOR WAKE FOREST THURSDAY P. M Guilford's first intercollegiate home game of the season -will be played Thursday night and the team is entitled to the most strenuous and frenzied support possible from the college body. Get busy and show how you feel about the matter. The team is getting into shape, but a whole lot more must be done be fore the proper form is reached. In Jonas and Frazier the varsity pos sesses two first class forwards, who make up in speed what they lack in weight. Rice, Dye and Robinson are able reserves for these positions. Joe Taylor will probably be the se lection for centre with Macon in re serve. Joe has not been able to get in much practice yet but he makes up in hard work what he lacks in ex perience. Moore showed signs of promise, but the flu has knocked him out. Raiford and Anderson will probably serve as guards, though Cox and Stafford are close competi tors. A lot of hard practice is need ed if a winning team is to be turned out from men without previous ex perience in intercollegiate basket ball, but the right kind of spirit and support from the student body will do the work. SUBSCRIBERS, PATRONIZE OUR ADVERTISERS. THEY MAKE THE GUILFORDIAN POSSIBLE. DR. W. S. HALL ADDRESSES STUDENTS Famous Author and Lecturer Pays Helpful Visit to Guilford. Dr. W. S. widely known as a physician, author and lecturer, paid an inspiring visit to Guilford last week end. Owing to the fact that the flu epidemic was just then at its height his audiences were un fortunately small, but the few who were able to hear him were amply repaid. Dr. Hall gave two talks on Satur day night, one to the men and the other to the women. His subject was Sex Hygiene and a 6 he is the leading authority in the country on matters of this sort his hearers re ceived a great deal of valuable infor mation from a source which thqy knew to be thoroughly trustworthy. Sunday morning he spoke to a mixed gathering in the Young Women's Christian Association room. His subject was "Man's Upward Pro gress" and his hearers were so deep ly interested that the two hours geemed very short. Beginning with a discussion pn the age of the hu man race he then took up the prob able condition of our ancestors 1000 to 3500 years ago, during the first stage of progress that of savagery. These men lived in caves by the wa ters side, used rafts and worshiped fetishes. Man could then be de scribed as "man the mate." He and his wife looked out for themselves and each had the same tasks. There was no specialization in food getting and housekeeping. One was as strong physically as the other. In the next stage, that of barbarism, about 3500 to 1500 years ago, man lived in fortress dwellings. He was always at war or the chase. His main business was killing. His raft became a canoe and the embellish ment of his weapons began art. Fre quent wars reduced the number of men and polygamy was instituted. This was the age of "man the mas ter." Woman became a household drudge, and her work was confined to spinning and cooking. As man was primarily a blood shedder he became cruel. Gradually woman be came more and more necessary and as a home-maker man learned to love her. This brought on the next step that of "chivalry," which lasted from 1500 to 300 years ago. Then man became the protector and lover. Society in the latest sense of the term was institutes. The fourth and last stage is that in which we are living now. The first two stages were those of egoism. The last two those of al truism. In the barbaric age the code was "might makes l'ight." In the age of chivalry it was "right makes might." The first was the code of the Germans who exhibited many traits of the barbaric age. We are already on the eve of the next great stage which wlil express itself in terms of a "World Dem ocracy."
