Don't Miss the Guilford-Elon Game at Cone Park Saturday
THE GUILFORDIAN
VOLUME VI
CABINET GIRLS
ATTEND RALLY
Salem Girls Are Gracious Hosts.
The Y. W. C. A. of Salem College,
having caught a glimpse of the good
ness the future holds in store, in-
vited six of the cabinet members of
the Y. W. C. A. of North Carolina
State College, six of those of the
Greensboro College for Women, and
six of those of Guilford College to
attend a Y. W. C. A. rally on No-
vember eighth and ninth at Salem
College. Nothing but pleasant an-
ticipation could follow such a cor-
dial invitation as we cabinet mem-
bers received
Saturday afternoon, November
eighth, the representatives of the
three colleges named above found
themselves at the station at Win-
ston, where they were met by the
cabinet members of Salem Y. W. C.
A., who carried them by automobile
to tbe college campus. Here we met
our respective hostesses and were
assigned rooms. Soon we were ush
ered to the Y. W. C. A. room, where
we were officially welcomed to Sa
lem. Here delicious sandwiches
and tea were served. In short or
der we were back in the automo
biles and were being rapidly taken
out of the town limits. Soon the
quiet beauty of the R. J. Reynolds
estate greeted our eyes. First, the
church and manse, then the ma
chine shop, the blacksmith shop, the
garage, the cattle and dairy barns,
the flower garden with its lovely
hothouses, the beautiful lake, and
the sixty-room bungalow topping
the summit of the hill —all we pass
ed in rapid succession. From here
we went to the Country Club, and
then back to the college.
After supper we attended a re
ception, where we met the president
and faculty of the college and more
of the student body. Refreshments
consisting of mints, Neopolitan
cream and salted peanuts, were at
tractively served. Following this a
dance was given at the "gym." Then
we again assembled and made many
new friendships and renewed old
ones while light refreshments were
again served.
Sunday morning the Seniors
proved to everyone their culinary
ability by the delicious breakfast
served. At eleven o'clock we at
tended services at the Moravian
church.
In the afternoon a technical cabi
net meeting was held. Here many
phases of association work were dis
cussed and much inspiration and
knowledge gained. Not the least in
teresting of the afternoon's enter
tainment was a visit to the building
of the Wachovia Historical Society.
Here we found many old instru
ments and curios, some of which
dated back to the very first settlers
of America.
Our entertainment culminated in

GUILFORD COLLEGE, N
NOVEMBER ELEVENTH
FITTINGLY CELEBRATED
Guilford Students Commemorate the
First Anniversary of Peace.
On Tuesday morning, November
11, Guilford students assembled in
Memorial Hall to commemorate the
first anniversary of peace. Although
the celebration was quiet and with-
out a great amount of display, it
was impressive and everyone pres
ent felt a thrill of patriotism as the
Guilford boys from "over there"
filed in and took their places at the
front. And the patriotic glow deep
ened and burned brighter as the
notes of "The Marseillaise" and
"America" pealed tortn.
President Binford began the ex
ercises by a short talk on the sig
nificance of the date November 11.
This was followed by talks from
boys who were in France at the
time of the signing of the armis
tice, and even if there were not so
many present who were there at
that time many phases of army work
were represented. D. D. Shields,
Cameron afld Paul Rayle as spokes
men for the men at the front gave
an account of the effect of peace
upon those who were fighting at the
time. A brief outune of what the
armistice meant to those in recon
struction work was given by Clyde
Shore. The audience next caught a
glimpse of what the Y. M. C. A. tried
to do for the boys in camp and of
the manner in which the work was
done. The summary of the Y. M. C.
A. work by Prof. J. W. Pancoast was
followed by an account of the Friends
reconstruction work given by Rich
ard Hobbs. Prof. Mark Balderston
spoke of the advance in ideals which
had taken place between last No
vember 11 and this November 11.
The last number was a tribute, given
by Dr. L. L. Hobbs, to the Guilford
men who made the supreme sacri
fice that the world might be free
for democracy, namely: Wayne Mil
ler, Wallace Dalton, Alfred Jones,
Ezra Moore and Dalton Smith.
Returned sevice men present at
the celebration were: Representing
the army, D. D. S. Cameron, R. A.
Lineberry, Paul Rayle, Robert Bul
la; representing the navy, L. Dorri
ty, L. Odom, Harry Johnson and
W. A. Nutting; representing the
Friends Reconstruction and Y. M.
C. A., Marvin Shore, Clyde Shore,
Thompson Zachary, Prof. Mark Bal
derston, Coach Robert Doak and
Prof. J. W. Pancoast.

FAST BASEBALL
ON HOBBS FIELD
Guilford Girls Exhibit Prowess on
the Diamond.
Last Thursday afternoon the
Freshman and Sophomore girls de
feated the Juniors and Seniors in a
close game by the score of 10 to 12.
Though baseball is a new spirt to
the denizens of New Garden and
Founders, the teams showed excel
lent skill and fine team work. Sev
eral double plays were made by
each team. The game began with the
Juniors and Seniors in the field. The
underclassmen, through the excel
lent batting of of Harmon, Macon
and Carroll, succeeded in scoring
three runs. The upperclassmen
then came to bat and greeted the de
livery of Nell Carroll with an ava
lanche of hits which netted seven
runs.
During the second inning the Ju
niors and Seniors held the opposing
team from scoring by the splendid
twirling of Mary Dixon and man
aged to score one more run in their
half of the inning, following a three
base hit by Donna Mcßane. The sec
ond inning closed with the score:
Upperclassmen 8, underclassmen 3.
The Juniors and Seniors were not
allowed a single run after tho Lhird
inning, due to the excellent team
work of the Sophomores and Fresh
men. The latter by consistent stick
work and base running gradually
crept up on the big lead of their op
ponents and finally passed them by
scoring three runs in the finish inn
ing of the game.
Nell Carroll scored the greatest
number of runs for the Freshmen
and Sophomores, while Dovie Hay
worth scored the greatest number

LET'S GET ELON
STUDENTS AND ALUMNI
Show Your College Spirit at Cone
Park Saturday Afternoon.
The game with Elon College Sat
urday afternoon, November 22, at
Greensboro will give ithe Guilford
student body and alumni a chance
to fulfill a desire that has been ex
pressed many times this fall —that
of seeing Coach Doak's eleven in
action against another college team.
There should be no slacking back at
this time, for the team needs every
ounce of suppont they can get in or
der to win the game. Cheer Lead
ers Barrett, White and Taylor have
been practicing songs and yells all
the week; and it is hoped the girls
will come in on this part of the pro
gram, too. Every student should be
at ithis game to lend his voice and
enthusiasm to the team. The Elon
ites are coming up in force, we
hear. They are going to bring their
band along with practically the en
tire student body. The Normal and
G. C. W. girls are also coming out
for the game. Don't fail the iteam
now! Everybody BE THERE!!
GUILFORD LOSES TO
WAKE FOTCEST
Baptists Win Against the Stubborn
Fighting Defense of Their
Lighter Opponents.
The Guilford eleven failed to work
off the Jonah that has been on them
this season when it lost the game at
Wake Forest Saturday by a 65-0
score. The size of the score, how-
ever, does not by any means indi-
cate the quality of the game played
by the Guilfordians. They played
a fighting game from start to finish
as the amount of time called for by
Wake Forest in which to allow the
men to recover from the hard tac
kles the Quakers had given them
will show. Tom Cox, L. Tremaine
and Babe Shore did mighty good
work in the line. The Baptists fail
ed almost altogether to make any
gains thru their stonewall defense.
Jimmy Pulliam also did some mighty
fast work as left end. He was down

ANIMATED LIBRARY IN
NEW GARDEN HALL
Picturesque Costumes Give Clues to
Book Lovers.
The social which took place at
New Garden Hall Saturday night
was one of special interest. As a
rule socials of the usual type are
rather monotonous —to some peo
ple—but not so with this one.
Everyone seemed to have a good
time. We realized for the first time
that Guilford actually possesses
some real literary artists.
Each girl was dressed to repre
sent some book. The books ranged
from Evangeline and Maude Muller
to the books of the present day, such
as "Over the Top" and "The Red
Cross Girl of Belgium." When the
boys arrived they went to the libra
rian and registered a book. Each
was very excited and was wondering
what girl he would get; but soon
his curiosity was put to an end for
the librarian brought forth his fa
vorite book. Each boy had: only
twenty minutes in which to read his
book and then he had to return her
to the stack room. Some of the boys
proved to be wonderful readers, and
by the expressions some of their
faces they seemed to enjoy their
books very much. Some of the
books which seemed to be in the
greatest demand were: "Mrs. Wiggs
of the Cabbage Patch," "Rebecca of
Sunny Brook Farm," "Mother,"
"Dawn," "Old Rose and Silver,"
"Red and Black" and "Black Beau
ty."
After each book had been read
two or three times everyone was
left to do as he or she pleased. In
every corner boys and girls were
soon coupled off and the hall was
filled with low mumuring sounds.
Ten o'clock came too soon for
everybody and couples parted with
reluotancy.
