THE GUILFORDIAN
VOLUME VIII
Iff CRIMSON AND GRAY TEAM
WINS Off AND LOSES THREE
Guilford defeats N. C. State but
fails to Stop, Eton, Trinity
and Wake Forest
The Guilford basketball squad left
Wednesday afternoon for a four-day
eastern trip. The men on the squad (
were J. G. Frazier, J. W. Frazier,
G. Newlin, G. Mcßane, T. Mackie,
G. Ferrell, F. Lindley, M. Tate, G.
Payne and coach Doak. Elon, Trin
ity, N. C. State and Wake Forest
were met by the Quakers, and of
these four games they were able
to win only one. The game with
N. C. State was a clear cut victory
for Guilford, and came as a result
of splendid team work and good
shooting. The other three, although
won by opposing teams, were hard
fought and were not lost by large
margins.
The chief difficulty with the Guil
ford outfit was their inability to play
consistently. The playing at times
was brilliant and at other times
very poor. Much of this is due to
the lack of practice against strong
teams. Due to the delay in begin
ning the season, only two games
have been played previous to this
trip.
The Elon Game
The first game was played at Elon '
Wednesday, February 8, and was ;
won by Elon 39 to 34.
Taking the lead at the beginning, '
the Quakers quickly ran up a score
that looked like sure victory. The
score at the end of the first half
being 25 to 17 in Guilford's favor.
However in the second half the Elon
defense tightened, and this, coupled
with their good shooting, and the
falling off of the Quakers' team work,
overcame the lead which had been
gained by Guilford in the first period.
Of the individual players, perhaps
J. G. Frazier deserves the most
credit in the scoring line. Besides
tossing tvj'o field goals, he shot 12
fouls out of 17 chances. Lindley al
so shot well, getting four field goals.
Fix who shot six field goals was
the best man playing for Elon.

The Trinity Game
On Thursday night, February 9,
Guilford met the strong Trinity
team and was defeated 38 to 24, the
largest score yet registered against
them this season.
The game was a slow affair, par
ticularly during the first half. The
Quaker team seemed unable to find
itself in this period and at the end,
the score stood 14 to 7 against them.
In the second half however it put
up a good exhibition of basketball
and piled up 17 pints to its oppon
ent's 24. As a whole the Crimson
ad Gray team played a more con
sistent game than in the two prev
ious contests. The team werk was
good considering the strong opposi
tion which Trinity put up. The
Quakers were greatly handicapped by
the small court but their defeat can
best be attributed to the fact that
Trinity has a good team rather than
to any breaks of the game. In
Crute, Trinity showed the outstand
ing star of the game. The Metho
dists' big guard ran wild, scoring
seven field goals and as many fouls.
His scoring alone was almost enough
to win the game.
Capt. Frazier was the only Guil- j
ford man who washable to locate the j
basket with any degree of accuracy. ■
He got six field and four foul goals. !

The N T . C. State Game
In a cleanly played, hard fought
game, The Crimson and Gray 'Team
walked away with N. C. State in
the city Auditorium at Raleigh, Fri
day night, February 10.
Playing one of the best games of
the season, the Quakers completely
outclassed a team which had prev
• iously defeated them in an extra
j period contest on their own floor.
I Although to Capt. Frazier goes
the greatest amount of credit for the
victory. The game was by no means
a one-man affair. The whole team
played as a unit and this, more than
anything else, accounts for the big
end of the score going to Guilfrd.
The game moved along with a fair
amount of interest during the first
half, neither team showing any
brilliancy in its playing, but ending
with the Quakers on the small end
of a 14 to 12 score. In the second half
J. G. Fraziei - , who had been shifted
from his position at guard to for
ward, began to fi-.d the basket with
deadly effect, and did not let up un-
til the end of the game found him
with seven fiel:l goals and as many
fouls to his credit. The guarding of
the Quakers was also no small factor
in winning the game.
State's Team showed a fatal tend
ency to dribble instead of to pass.
The only effective work was done
by Groome and Long , both of these
men shot four field goals each.

The Wake Forest Game
In the last game of the trip the
Quakers lost to the fast Wake Forest
,team, Saturday night, February 11.,
by a score of 34 to 23.
Except for the first five minutes
of play, during which time they se
cured a six-point lead, the Quakers
were outclassed by the Baptists,
whose speed was dazzling and whose
guarding was the best seen yet by
Guilford this season.
J. G. Frazier's work which was so
prominent in the N. C. State game
was almost completely overshadowed
by the close guarding of Heckman
and Carlyle. The fast Quaker Capt.
failed to shoot a single field goal
and succeeded in caging ony 0 out of
18 fouls which is below his usual
standard.
The scoring for Guilford was even

GUILFORD COLLEGE, N. C-. FEBRUARY 15, 192'2
SHAKESPEAREAN LECTURE
AND READING AT GUILFORD
C. T. W. Griffith of Chicago
Gives Two Interesting
Programs
On Thursday evening at 4:15 the
fourth number of the Lyceum course
was given in Memorial Hall by Mr.
C. E. W. Griffith, a very notetd
lecturer. Mr. Griffith has lectured ;
on Shakespeare and his works
throughout the leading colleges in j
Europe and America.
The speaker began his lecture by
showing the beauty in art and na- j
ture. "Art is Nature idealized"
said the speaker. The thing that
makes Shakespeare famous is the ;
fact that he is a poet of human
nature. Nobody dislikes him except
the ignorant. Everybody takes off
1 his hat to the genius of Shakespeare.
I It is worth while for everybody to
I learn more about his work's^
After paying a tribute to Shakes
i peare Mr. Griffith reviewed several
|of his dramas. In "King Henry V"
he read Henry's wooing of Catherine
jjn such an artistic and effective
| manner that he won the applause of
the audience. After a thorough syn
opsis of Henry V. he introduced
Henry VIII. Shakespeare's greatest
tragedy is and Juliet."
j Romeo's love was beautiful, pure and
clean. Love of that sort is the
greatest love on eaith. If people
of to-day had the kind of love that
Romeo had the country would be
much better off. Juliet's face was
the moon, the sun and everything to
I Romeo. 1
"Hamlel" is Shakespeare's mas
tei piece. "Behold that skull once
ha 1 a tongue in it and could sing,"
are the saddest words of Shakes
pe: re. The play of King Lear teach
es the h'deous and irreverent at
titude >of the children to parents.
On Thursday at eight o'clock Mr.
Griffith appeared again on the stage
and read "Twelth Night." This was
very amusing and was enjoyed very
much by the audience. By special
request he also recited Longfellow's
"Rainy Day" and "The Day is Done".

the fact that such a large and
attentive audience attended. Reports
which have come from those who,
had the pleasure of hearing this

the program given by Mr. White
and Miss Byrd very much. Miss

DLD GIRLS WINNERS
THE OPENING GAME
Well played game goes 12 to 6
against New Girls.
On Saturday evening, February 11, j
the Old girls defeated the New girls ■
in an unusually hard fought and
well played game of besketball. the
final score being 12 to 6. Although
this was the first game of the season
both teams showed up well.
The old girls took the lead early
in the game and through the accur
ate shooting of E. Raiford piled up ,
a lead which the new girls were
unable to overcome. The first half
ended with the score standing 9 to 5.
The new girls showed better form
during the second half and at var
ious times threatened to start an
offensive, but the fast and effective
guarding of E. Teague and N. Allen
prevented them from finding the
. basket a single time except from the
! foul line. There were no outstand
i ing stars for the new g'irls. but the
! guarding of Pringle and Jones was
j effective.

of Guilford held a mass meeting
Saturday evening to pass resolutions
and approbation, and to tender con

States and all those who have bean
responsible for the calling of the
Conference.
2. That this College expresses it-?

for the Naval Limitation Treaty.
This school is pleased that the Cap
itol ships and Aircraft-carrying ves
sels of the leading Naval Powers are

ratified at an early date.
7. That this College trusts tfie two
uncompleted treaties may be signed.
And that the controversy between
America and Japan over the island o
may be adjusted to meet the
Commercial needs of the United
States. Also that there may be a
speedy determination of the owner
ship of the former German Pacific
Ocean Cables.
8. Guilford College deeply appreci

the Fourteen Resolutions adopted
by the Conference.
9 That to this Institution it is a
iea! pleasure to recognize in the

10. That Guilford College believes
that the greatest work of the Confer
ence lies in the existence and fur
ther development of a more friends
relationship among fche Nations par
ticipating i-n the Washington Meet
ing. And trust that this may be
but the first of a series of inter
national Conferences which shall in
sure "Less of Armaments and Non
of War."
