THE GUILFORDIAN
)LUME VIII
AIL GAMES ON EASTERN Iff LOST.
ELON DtFEATEO IN EASIER MQNDY GAME
Team Unable to Hit Tr'nity, State
and Wake poorest Pitchers—Capt.
Shore Beats Elon.
With their defense shattered and
their moundsmen unable to stem the
fusilade of hits which sent runner
after runner across the rubber, the
Quakers suffered a 16 to 0 defeat
from Trinity on the Methidist's home
ground, April 13.
The slug fest started in the first
inning and kept up with unabated
fury throughout the remaining eight
frames. Although Guilford sent
three twirlers to the box in an etfort
to stem the tide, the Trinity sluggers
ran wild, batting the ball to all parts
of the field, securing sixteen hits and
as many runs, three of which were
circuit smashes.
Ferrell who began the game for
the Quakers was removed in the
fourth and Shore substituted but the
big right hander was not equal to j
the job and Cummings was shifted j
from first base to the mound, pitch- j
ing the remainder of the game.
Deal, pitching for Trinity, held the j
Guilford lads to two hits and show- j
ed good control throughout the game.
He was given striking support, and
Guilford never threatened. The Qua
kers swatted the ball terrifically sev- |
era] times during the game but per- j
feet catches by the outfielders killed ,
their hopes.

Guilford lost to State College on
the latter's home ground, April 14
when the Quakers' defense crumbled
1 -hi -d big Shore about midway of
the game allowing the men to
pile up an 8 to 3 score.
Each team scored the same num
ber of earned runs but the Tech's
gave their moundsman, "Specs"
Cline, the best of support; while
Shore was given ragged support by
his team and in a large measure had
to work out his own game.
The catching and hitting of Hay
worth who smashed out a double and
triple, and the consistent work of
Winn, featured the game for Guil
ford The Quakers hit the agate
hard. In addition to Hayworth's
heavy elonts, Cummings slapped out
a two sack bingle, J. W. Frazier
picked out a couple of good singles
End the two Shores swatted one each.
The eight hits were not sufficient
ly bunched to be effective in earning
inns and this, together with the
loose brand of fielding displayed,
proved the undoing of the Quakers.
The Techs, on the other hand,
played in great style. Their hitting
Boost The Athletic Asso.-See "Clarence" On May 13
was timely and they made full use
of every bobble made by the . oppo
sit'on. Every one of the Techs play
ers poled out a hit while Cline and
Holland bagged a couple each. Floyd,
State's right fielder, hit the apple
for a circuit drive.
Hayworlh's triple and Cumming's
double gave Guilford an earned run
in the second inning and two more
of the same variety were pushed
over in the fifth on singles by M.
Shore and J. W. Frazier, a couple
cf stolen bases and a double by
Winn.
Redfearn's two base hit, J. G. Fra- S
zier's error and Holland's single ac
counted for the first run for the
Tech's, while hits by Blue, Holland
and Lassiter addded two more mark
ers in the fou th. Five more runs
were picked by State in the remain
ing innings by timely hitting after
The Quaker defense had crushed.

Guilford took the annual Easter
Monday game from Elon by a score
-f 3 to 2, making the Quakers' third
consecutive victory in the holiday
contest.
Backed by his team mates playing
errorless ball, "Babe" Shore on tl
mound for Guilford pitched in great
style, holding his opponents scoreless
until the ninth frame when Elon
sent two runs across the rubber a,nd
tied the score. With two laid on
the shelf and on her list chance at
the plate, Elon started a rally which
progressed from a forlorn hope to
within an ace of victory. Johnson
started the trouble when he hit one
square on the nose for a triple. Clark
wasl given a free pass by Shore and
the clean up swatter. Marlette, who
had been unable to touch Shore's
twisters up to this point in the game,
smashed out a. double sending home
two of his mates and evening up
with the two runs which the Qua
kers had sent over in the fourth
and sixth innings.
The Quaker lads were not willing
to see the game, which they had ap
parently sewed up in the early
frames, snatched from them, how
ever, by a ninth inning rush. Com

DUNBAR BELL RINGERS
DELIGHT LARGE AUDIENCE
Bell Ringing Feature of Varied
Program.
The Dunbar Male Quartet and Bell
Fingers, of the Redpath Chautauqua,
delighted a large audience with a
widely varied program of song, read
ing and instrumental music, on
Wednesday evening, April 18,
The feature of the evening's en
tertainment was the bell ringing.
The peal of bells, sixty-five in
number and ranging in sizes up to
25 pounds, gave forth really delight
ful musical effects under the skill
ful manipulations of the bell ring
ers MacDowell's "To a Wild Rose''
I was played with exquisite effect,
j but even more impressive was the
i rendition of "A Sunday Morning
| in London" representing the various
chimes to be heard in London on such
i an occasion.
The players, four in number, were
an unusually talented group, each
i man having one or more specialties
! in addition to his skill with the
bells. Mura] Poor,, reader, diivid
j ed honors with Maurice Yetes. the
I French pianist, for first place in
! popularity with the audience. Mr.
i Poor has a real gift for imperson
ation which makes him a successful
j conr'c reader, while his sympathetic
! interpretation of such a poem as
Guest's "It takes a heap o' liven
| : n a house to make it home" proved
his ab'lity to handle a more serious
type of reading.
Mr. Yete's enthusiastic reception
j was due to the splendid technique and
; art'stic feeling in his
j pi no numbers. His rendition of Rac
j maninoff's "Prelude in G Sharp Mi
nor" was appreciatively received
j and heartily encored. His encores
! included numbers from Liszt, Schu
bert and Pad;rewski.
The other two members of the
i "iuir'et, Jack Wood, cellist, and
1 Frank Goodwin, baritone soloist,
e'e also warmly received, although
eir special numbers fell somewha'
i hnrt of the excellence attained by
, their two colleagues. The entire
i irogi :m however, judging from the
\ " ; ri d applause, was probably the
most thoroughly enjoyed, if not the
i~st srtis'ic one presented by the
' •reum couis? this year.

BRANSON WINS GUV
ORATOR'S MEDAL
Six Men Compete In Annual Society
Contest
The thirty-sixth Annual Oratorical
Contest of the Henry Clay Literary
Society was held in Memorial Hall
last Saturday evening at 8 o'clock
with Everette L. Hollady presiding.
This con est was one of the best that
the Society has staged. The six men
who participated in the contest show
ed wisdom in the selection of their
subjects, and delivered their orations
in a manner that is an honor to
them and a credit to their society.
The first oration of the evening, '
"The Factors of America's Great
ness," was delivered by C. Benbow
Merrimon. The speaker said that
the present greatness of the Ameri
can Nation is due to the foresight of
cur business-men, the character of
our labor, and to our matchless wo
manhood. And that these three fac
ors may do much toward bringing
about international peace, by assert
ing their opposition to war.
"Our Great Commonwealth," a no
ble tribute to The Old North State,
was delivered by C. A. Denney Clems.
Mr. Clems showed how North Cor
olina has been, anel still is, one of the
foremost states of the Union. Some
of the purest Anglo-Saxon blood in
America is to be found within her
borders, and she has always been
one of the first to rush to the call
of her country. But not from a
standpoint of war alone is N. C.
great. For she ranks fourth from
j the top in the production of agri-
I cultural products, and she has always
entered with a hearty spirit into the
i struggle for the promotion of bene
ficial State and n tfional policies.
The winning oration, entitled "In
i ternationalism" was given by B. Rus
sell Branson of the class of '25. Mr.
jßr nson's oration showed how the
, spirit of America and the broad
| principles upon which our nation i
fcun 'ed are favorable to the estab
lishing of an International spirit
vmong nations "Intel-nation lism is
■nevitable," the speaker said. "In
fluences are at work which will has
-1 ten i s arrival, and the responsibility
lies with the American people to
direct these influences into the prop-
I "r channels."
The four'.h oration of the evening,
"Ministers of Mercy" was delivered
by Willif.m A. Wolff. He gave a
; brief history of the Red Cross work
of America, including the necessity
for such an organization, the many
difficulties encountered, and the won
derful accomplishments that the Red
Cross has made.
Edward M. Hatcher gave the fifth
oration entitled, "Co-operative Mar
keting of Farm Products." Mr
Hatcher emphasized the necessity for
! co-operation among farmers in the
buying and selling of farm products,
if they are to hold their own in the
business world. Farming has ceased
to be a one-man profession. If far
mers get the desired compensation
for their labor in the future they
must organize to assert their de
j mantis, and must take advantage of
the opportunities offered them by
existing organizations.
The final oration "The Econom
ics of War," was delivered by John
O. Reynolds. Mr. Reynolds showed
; the enormous amount of money,
property and life that is destroyed
by war, and the great good that
could be accomplished if these fac
tors were used in promoting edu
cation and general good-will between
the nations. And finally that an
other great war would mean the
ruin of the world economically, and
the probable destruction of entire
races of men.

PROCEEDS OF BOX SOCIAL
10 REDECORATE PARLOR
Student Gathering Place to Be
Redecorated.
A box social, at which $73.00 was
raised for the renovation of the
students' parlor at Founders, was
held on the campus last Friday af
ternoon from 4:00 to 7:00.
Seme unappreciative person crit
icised the art-gallery, the walls, floor
and furniture in the parlor and the
sentiment spread. With Mrs. Perisho
jas the power behind the commit
tees. pians were made for raising
money, r.mong others, the soc'.al.
Thursday the entire student body
! of girls raided the college stores for
boxes suitable for the purpose. Miles
of crepe paper of myriad tints were
brought from town, and at the ex
pf nse of lessons in many cases, ar
ticles of wondrous shape and
were bi'igiit forth under the nare
| of boxes.
Friday morning and early after
noon were occupied with frenzied
M'rurrying and searching for the
; wherewithal to fill the boxes. A
few supplies were furnished in the
kitchen, and these formed the basis
and most substantial part of most
: of them.
Promptly at 4:3o—the schedule
said 4:oo—the students assembled on
the campus for suitcase races. In the
first of these, Shelly Clodfeltev was
winner, in the second, Vivian White.
The bidding began at 5:00, with
Hugh White for auctioneer. Box
after box was taken from the table
near-by and sold to the highest
bidder. Bidding was highest when
it was suspected that certain people
were determined to get certain other
people's boxes. When the last box
was sold, and and the auctioneer
had practically lost the use of his
voice, couples scattered on the cam
pus to eat the contents of their
purchase. They were soon driven in
by a rain and cluttered up the
porch and the student's parlor until
7:00.
Less fortunate ones, those without
someone to buy a box and unable
to buy one for themselves, crowded
into the d'ning room and kitchen and
devoured all eatables which were in
sight.
Ice cream was for sale at the cor
ner of the porch, but almost every
one had either spent all he had or
had eaten too much to buy any, so
there were few sales.
At 7:00 the bell rang, end M'ss
Roberts in the role of Miss Louise
dispersed the couples to their respec
tive society halls.
Beside the $73 gained by the social,
which was very successful, $23 have
come frojii alumni and friends inter
ested ; n Guilford. With this begin
ning, it is expected to begin work
on the parlor very soon.
GUILFORD LOSES TO OAK RIDGE
IN TENNIS

with Oak Ridge or. the home courts.
Merrimon, Tstum and Brown repre
sented Guilford in a game of singles
with Whitaker, Fountain and Norton
of Oa,k Ridge. As this was our first
meet of the season the men failed
to return the ball in an effective
way which experience alone can
only improve, resulting in the loss
of all three of the matches. The
final score is as follows.
Whitaker vs Meri'imon. .3:6; 6:3; 8:6
Fountain vs Tatum 6:6; 6:0
Norton vs Brown 6:2; 6:3
