An interesting and pleasing recital was given at Memorial Hall on Satur day evening, Feb. 5, by the voice pu pils of Professor James Wesley White assisted by some of Miss Byrd's piano students. Each young lady on the program preformed her part creditably. The softness of Miss Walkin's tone was well suited to the selections given. The next selections given by Miss Griffin were well rendered, the last one especially. The piano selection by Miss Rey nolds told of careful preparation and mastery of the piece.

PRESIDENT BINFORD ADDRESS ES CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATIONS President Binford addressed the Christian Associations at the Sunday morning chapel on, "The Religious Obligation oi Economic Relations." The topic was inspiringly set be fore the students. He said that from an economic standpoint no one could aflord to use or grow things that do not help in relieving the critical situ ations in the world today. Why should one eat more than is necessary when hundreds and thousands have no food at all? The fact that we 'lave fellow beings reduced to such circumstances places a religious ob making any unnecessary consump tion. There is a moral wrong in using unnecessary amounts of provisions provided by the public. When one person uses beyond what he needs ttie field for more is increased. There is a marked, "Privileged Class"' which is by no means desir able in society. They are those who attempt to lord over others as the the man who buys his ticket and takes (Continued, on page 3) GUILFORD COLLEGE, N. C., FEBRUARY 9, 1921 Intercollegiate Debate In Preparation for Nineteenth, Both Teams Polishing Material The intercollegiate debate with Hampden-Siclney scheduled for Feb ruary ninteenth, promises to be one of tlTe most important of the college progroms this semester. The list of judges submitted for or approval to the Debating Coun cil by the Hampden-Sidney debaters has been received. The Guilford Council has likewise submitted a list of judges to Hampden-Sidney for approval. Each of the councils will select from the lists submitted to them three judges. The affirmative, Gladstone Hodgin rnd Edward Hollady will debate the Hampden-Sidney negative here, while the Guilford negative, Curtis Newlin and A. J. Newlin, will debate ihe Hampden-Sidney affirmative at iHampden-Sidney. The alternates for Guilford are, affirmative Lyndon Williams, negative Ralph Farlow. As there are several charges con nected with the debate the Council wishes it announced that there will bo in admission fee of twenty five cents. Besides the debate several musical number? will be included on the pro gram. After the program there will be a reception given in honor of the de baters. This debate is the first inter-colle giate debate that the college has en tered ir. four years. At that debate Guilford won and the students hope Iriat she will have the same success this ime. ORATORICAL BOARD The oratorical element of the col lege is fast developing under the su pervision of the Oratorical Board, organized in the fall of 1920 for the purpose of promoting the work. Much of the progress is due to the great interest and enthusiasm shown by Professor Baker who now serves in the capacity of Faculty Advisor. The board has recently drawn up a constitution by which it shall be uoverened and it also made regula tions concerning the orators and ora tions. According to the state regulations girls are not eligible to the state peace contest so the winning boy will repre sent the college in the state contest. Should sufficient enthusiasm be creat ed throughout the state among the girls to justify such, a state girls con test will be considered, the date of which would probably be later in ■he spring. CLAY CONTEST POSTPONED The Annual Oratorical Contest of the Henry Clay literary society has been postponed, because of the short length of lime intervening between examination week and the date which had previously been set. This date, February 12th has been changed to Vlarch fifth. Tourist (gazing at volcano): "Looks like hell, doesn't it?" Native: "How those Americans have traveled!"— Harvard Lampoon. Guilford Trounces Lenoir Visitors Defeated in Slow Game Coming back strong after their de feat on the previous night, the Guil ford lads turned down Lenoir College with a 31-22 score.

The Lenoir team did not succeed in •aging but one Held goal i;i the first half, while the Guliford quintet was making a total of 1"> points. In the second half the Quakers eemed to lose interest and pep and did not show the real teamwork ot which thev are capable while the vis itors, fighting hard to overcome the early lead against them, were able to score as much as the home team. Each side registered 10 points in this half. For Guilford, J. G. Frazier was easily the outstanding star securing 21 of his teams 31 points. His op ponents showed fear of him by con tinually switching their defence in order to ( heck his repeated scoring. Lenoir had a good forward in Seitz who scored over half of his teams points. Whitener substituting for Beam also played a good game. Line up: Lenoir; Boggs, If.; Seitz, rf.; Tick le, c-.; Bager, lg.; Beam, rg. Guilford: J. W. Frazier, If.; Lind ley, rf.; J. G.

It was suggested by this committee that the members of the different clubs s-Mid Guilfordians each week to the:r County High Schools. All of the county clubs have been organised and the whole student body is very much interested in the work of boosting Guilford and making the college better known throughout the Quakers liovv to Baptists' Onslaught Close Guarding Under Basket by Visitors Caused defeat In a hard fought game on her home court, Guilford went down in defeat before the Wake Forest team on Fri day eve.ling, February 4th.
