THE GUILFORDIAN VOLUME VI. GUILFORD LOSES FINAL TOA.&E. 25-32 Fast, Cleanly Played Game— Frazier Stars. In a cleanly played game that was hotly contested from the first blast of the referee's whistle to the final note from the timekeeper the Quaker team went down to defeat before the A. & E. State College quintet by a 32-25 score. Frazier was the indi vidual star of the game, the score showing six field goals and five free throws to his credit. The visitors' left forward, Deal, was the only man on their side who showed any playing of the stellar variety. Their whole team worked well together, though, and it was by this they won the game. Cox and Zachary played their usual consistent game for Guilford. Zach ary started the game as center with Newlin shifted to guard. This posi tion was new to the latter. In the second half, though, Zachary was shifted back to his old position as right forward and Newlin back to center. Zachary was slightly hurt in the last half and consequently was slowed up somewhat in his play ing. Guilford got the start on the Farmers in the first of the game and held the lead till just before the close of the first half. The State College team gained on them so that the score stood 17-15 in A. & E.'s favor at the end of the first period. Both teams came back strong in the second half and the score see-sawed back and forth between them for some few minutes. State College, however, got in a few lucky shots that gave them a good lead, which they were able to hold to the end of the game. Their dead sure foul shooting was an important factor in the size of the score. The Guilford student body as well as quite a large number of old stu dents and alumni gave good support to the team. State College also had quite a number of supporters from Greensboro and the neighboring towns. The line-up: A. & E. Guilford. Ripple, 8.. .. .

At Memorial Hall, on Saturday evening, February 28, the twelfth an nual oratorical contest of the Zata sian Literary Society was given. The orations were especially interesting, all being on topics of present-day interest. Moreover, each girl in the contest showed herself to be famil iar with the subject with which she was dealing, and also to have put much time and effort into the task of preparing her oration. The sub jects were all clearly and logically worked out. Program. Piano Solo —Miss Rudisill. The Public Schools of the United States—Hazel Richardson. Southern Mountaineers Mabel Ward. Our Forests —Edith Harrison. Women in Industry—Margaret Levering. Duet—Nina Robertson, Marjorie Williams. The society was indeed fortunate in having as judges Miss Mary Petty, S. A. Hodgin and J. B. Moosley. Mr. Moosley in a very clever and appro priate speech presented the prize, a lovely set of Shakespeare, to Hazel Richardson. TO HAVE WHOLE TIME PHYSI CAL DIRECTOR NEXT YEAR. President Binford announces that he has secured Miss Eleanor Pal lard, a graduate of Earlham College, as physical director for the girls next year. Miss Ballard has been promi nent in the athletic world at Earl ham and also has received special training in gymnastics and exercises that now play such an important part in the correct physical develop ment. This should be good news to all the girls, as they have this year had to play and coach themselves as best they saw fit. Last year Miss Rob erts took an active interest in their athletics, but there has been no one to take her place this year. Coach Doak has his hands full with the boys' athletics, so that he has not been able to give them much assist ance or advice. MISS ROBERTS TO ENTER SOR BONNE UNIVERSITY IN PARIS A recent letter from Miss Anna Roberts, who is away on leave from her position here as head of the mod ern language department in order that she might assist in the work of the l-'riends' Reconstruction Unit in France, states that her work there is practically completed. She will remain in Paris until perhaps the middle of summer, as she has been admitted into the Sorbonne Univer sity in that city, where she will do some special work in preparation for resuming her work in this country. MYRTLE COX IS ELECTED PRESIDENT At a recent mass meeting of the Young Women's Student Govern ment Association the president for next year was elected. Every girl having Junior standing was eligible for a candidate. The three girls re ceiving the highest number of votes in the first election were: Myrtle Cox, Madge Coble and Frances Bulla. In the final election Myrtle Cox was elected president. REV. EDGAR WILLIAMS LEADS Y. M. C. A. Gave a Very Helpful Talk on Work. The speaker based his remarks upon a number of texts such as "The labor is worthy of hire," and "Be thou faithful unto death and I will give thee a crown of life." "What is the motive for work?" the speaker asked. One motive for work is to put bread into our mouths. We work in order that we may have food, shelter and clothes. This is primari ly work for ourselves. Another motive is to gain the ap proval of other people and of our own conscience. We like to think that we have done a piece of work well and we like to have other peo ple think so. But the chief motive for work should be to help somebody else. But why work for other people? They do not thank us for it in many instances. If everybody took this selfish attitude toward work, no doc tor would ever make a midnight drive, no Red! Cross nurse would ever go to France, and no Christ would have ever died for us. We are dependent upon each other, so we must help each other. The greatest motive for work is to seek the approval of God. If we have His stamp upon our work it will not be in vain. In conclusion the speaker said, "Let us work for the approval of man, of conscience and of God." AFFAIRE DU COEUR. College Waitprs Entertain Guests.

NUMBER 19 GUILFORDIAN STAFF ENJOY BANQUET Hour Characterized by Plenty of Eats and a Jolly Crowd. Generally, to be a member of the Guilfordian Board means work for that person and work only. Happily, quite the reverse was true Friday night. Immediately after the societies had adjourned the members com posing the board met in the front hall at New Garden and were led by the host, David White, into the din ing room. Mrs. Levering acted as hostess for the evening. While a buzz of conversation was being car ried on characterized by gay laugh ter and witty jokes, the following menu was enjoyed: Grapefruit Cocktail Fried Oysters Hot Rolls Butter Saratoga Chips Pickles Celery Coffee Chicken Salad Saltines Cream Cake Mints Shields Cameron acted as toast master for the occasion. Mr. Came ron expressed the appreciation of the board for Mr. White's hospitality. Talks were then given in the follow ing order: First, Mr. White assured the board of his appreciation of their help; then the editor-in-chief, Miss Mcßane, made a few remarks; Prof. Balderston expressed the hope he had of a bigger, better Guilfordian; Miss Louise expressed her pleasure of being present; Mr. Mills stated that he hoped we would be able to make a miniature printing office of the Guilfordian room where a course of jouralism might be pursued; last ly, Mrs. Levering related an amusing anecdote. A report of the event would not be complete without mentioning the aid rendered by Misses Neece and Chilton in the capacity of cooks and that rendered by the same two la dies and Hugh Moore as waitresses and waiter. The board certainly is grateful to Mr. White for a friendly hour to gether, and by coming together on such a footing, it was able to unite n a determination to put into reali ty the new visions expressed by our faculty advisers who have untiringly given of their services during the past year.
