CAMPAIGN COLUMN CAMPAIGN e wenh The cities of Greensboro and High Point are putting on full speed ahead in their efiorts to make the present endowment campaign a success. Greensboro has accepted $75,000 as her share of the Guil ford County quota of $150,000 and High Poi t pledges herself for $60,000. Both cities have outlined their soliciting campaign and have or ganized strong committees for di le ting the work, the executive com mittee for the High Point drive consists of; W. C. Idol, chairman, Chas. T. Tomlinson, Ralph Parker, director, Henry A. White, Joseph D. Cox. A similar committee for direct ing the drive in Greesboro is com posed of; R. J. M. Hobbs, chairman, Mary Petty, David White, Sam Hod gin, Walter Blair and a number of other prominent business men. Campaign Paragraphs:— Here's a new one for supporting Guilford! Last year there were 7,700 college students in the state. Of these 3,400 were in state sup ported collegs, leaving 4,300 in the denomination al schoo's. To abol ish these schools and double the capacity of the state institutions would run the rate of taxation to an impossibility! "The great opportunity of Guil ford College is the great opportuni ty of Guilford County." and of North Carolina. Did you know that the state is buldnig a hard-surface road to Guilford's front door? By automobile we'll be ten min utes nearer Greensboro. Greensboro, we're glad you are our town. Which one of these slogans do you like? 1. Do it for Guilford! 2. Guilford's great opportunity! 3. Go down and give for Guilford-' 4. Git down and git for Guliford! Try these over o:i your po ket book. CRIMSON & GRAY TEAM CLAIM TWO VICTORIES (Continued from page 1) perate struggle for victory. Al though N. C. State was never in the lead, yet three times she tied the score. With thirty-two seconds to play the count stood 21 all. A spectacular shot by "Shorty" Fra zier put the game on ice. From this encounter, Johnson of the visit ors, and the two Frazier.? of Guil ford, emerged with well earned honors. The second game of the week killed, dressed and salted the "Game cocks" of South Carolina— The game was fast and well played but the out com p was never seriously in doubt. Thi3 was especially no ticeable since th.? battle came so close on the heels of the tight but successful State game, it can cer tainly be said of the visitors that they displayed a lighting -pirit. Wright, a forward for the Univer sity of Carolina was a clever play er, yet when J. G. Frazier, of Guil ford, is on the floor little atten- j tion is given to any other player. The last game of the week, and the first defeat of the season was played with Wake Forest. As has been the custom this year, Guilford early grabbled the lead and march ed steadily on. At the end of the first half, in which the visitors had been completely out-played, the score stood 17-11 in Guilford's fa vor. However by this time the Qua kers crack guards, Ferrel and Thom as, were ruled out of the game on account oi fouls. The substitutes Tew and Cannon although playing well, were unahle to stop the fierce attack of the visitors. Greeson of Wake Forest led the charge, and dis -1 played marked ability as a basket ball player. However J. G. Frazier, of Guilford, was by far the besl basketball player on the floor. He is credited with seven field goals and eight fouls. WADE SMITH LECTURES TO JOINT "Y" MEETING Rev. Wade C. Smith, pastor of the "Church-by the-side-of-the-Road of Greensboro, gave a stereoptico i le ture to a joint meeting of the Y. M. and Y. W. C. A. in Memorial Hall, Thursday evening, Feb. 8. In endeavoring to bring to the minds of his audience a brief pic ture of the need for Christianity throughout the world, especially in Africa and Apia. Mr. Smith showed slides of vario !S scenes and peoples of other land:;. In the con se of the lecture the speaker mentioned the enormous accomplishments which might be attained if only a fifth of all the church members were tithed. Food | for starving schools, and a know ledge of the true religion could be carried to the dark spots of the world, and enlightenment replace the darkness which now prevails. 1 An appeal was made at the end of the lecture, to America, as a christian nation, to heed Christ's call for missionaries, and realize our responsibility as well as our duty to the many millions who are dying without knowledge of God. CLASS OF '23 INSTALLS FINAL TERM OFFICERS The Seniors have efficient class meetings down to a fine art. They • ever lose sight of the fact their chief purpose is social. The entire ! business and program for Tuesday, January 30, consisted of the in stallation of new officers. Jo. Mock succeeded Benbow Merriman as president, Henrietta Lassiter suc ceeded Hope Motley as secretary, and the marshal's chair was given Among the inaugural addresses up by Nellie Allen to Spot Taylor. Mr. Taylor's, in particular, was marked by flowery eloquence. After this lengthy affair, games, contests, tfte-a-tetes, and other accompani ments of a social class followed. NOTED GUILFORDIAN CON DUCTS SCHOOL OF MIS SIONS IN GREENSBORO Mrs. T. J. Copeland, formerly Miss Marsh, who was at one time a student in New Garden Boarding School has been conducting a School of Missions in Greensboro during the past week. Mrs. Cope land is now living in Baltimore. Her husband was also a student at New Garden Boarding School sever al years ago. QUAKER QUIBS It is predicted that owing to a monopoly of the eggs by the Math ematics department Easter will lack its essential feature at Guilford College. The weather in these parts has been rather raw to southerners but comparing it to that of the middle west centering around Chicago, our storms are mere breezes. If the Biology department keeps going at its present rate, Dogdom is doomed. THE GUILFORDIAN OPEN FORUM The saddest of the year, When all our minds are total blanks And D's and E's we fear. Behold the faculty enttrenched Upon yon lonely hill, With question guns trained on our paths, That makes our blood run chill. The English Legions on the right, At Polk's and Smith's command. Will undermine the cherished hopes hopes Of many a weary man. And there upon the levo-side, Bevond that tallest tree, I Maj or White, the chem warrior Prepares dread T. N. T. Pancoast and Newlin carefully aim, Their mathematic guns; Loaded up with x y z's To "can" the figuring ones. These and many other joys, Are seen not far away. Be ready with your "bull sticks" On examination day. F. R. E. '25. Library And Eskimos Quickly, through the bitter winds of that raw afternoon, I rushed to the library, planning to spend a pleasant hour among the ancient writers. On opening the door of that in stitution a cold damp breath struck me, the penetrating possibilities of which put the outside breeze to shame. Thinking surely that I had stopped upon the battleground of the warm inner air and the cold outer air and, that my blood not knowing whether to speed up or slow down, had stopped a mo ment to decide, I turned my coat collar up and made a dash for my favorite corner.. A moment's stay was enough to tell me that icy air reigned supreme in this Alaskan cave. Slowly I looked around to see if any other adventurers had braved the weather conditions of this snowy tavern. Yes, there was one, the librarian, wrapped in a heavy coat with furs encircling her neck and face, her eyes alone, peering through the icicles, caused by her breathing on the fur, was the only evidence of life. Poor thing, I thought, they brought Spaniards for other departments, why couldn't they import an Eskimo to relieve YOU? You'll be a victim of the flu, I further mused, but no! On second thought no flu germ could live in this arctic air. Determined to risk all for a few minutes, I rushed with Virgil through Hades and gladly followed Dante into the fire of his Inferno, only to be brought back to reality, by the frosty breath of frozen -radi ators. Surely, here was cold stor age for which Armour or Swift would pay much. Finally, as a drowning man grasps for a straw, I snatched at Dr. Coue's idea of autosuggestion. Struggling desperately, I sought re lief here, but the only doctrine that penetrated my ice marred mind was: The longer I stay, in every way, I'm getting colder and colder." Maddened, I rushed forth, deter mined to postpone my Sunday after noon reading until the summer sun had released winter's grim grip on this ice palace. —F. R. E.
