Member of North Carolina Collegiate Press Association. EDITORIAL COMMENT Rah, Rah! Glee Club! Guilford has a live, active Glee Club. This was demonstrated clear ly by the interest and success which accompanied the first performance of the year given at McLeansville. Those who know something of the work done in the long hours of training since the holidays, as well as the untiring services of the facul ty advisors, Miss Byrd and Profess or J. D. White, were already assur ed of this success. The glee club is as loyal and as strongly interested in the college as any student organization on the campus. It has a schedule of ten recitals arranged that will bring Guilford before hundreds of people in a way which could not be done otherwise. As an advertising agen cy, and that is one of the greatest needs of the college at present, it shares honors with athletics and in fact fills a place that athletics cannot reach, for this organization is composed of a fine group of men representing the musical talent to gether with the intellectual train ing and achievements which charac terize Guilford. These men are loyally supporting the college. Is the college loyal to them? There is much that might be said on both sides. As it stands however it looks as if the faculty aand students are attempting to pursue a policy of hands off. Such a spirit does not win basketball and baseball games. Surely we are all behind the glee club in full strength, but let's prove it. Every bit of help and cheer that we give them is so much done for our col leges, for they will pass it on in improved performances. • • Our Basket Ball Team Out of a total of twelve college basketball games played this season we have won seven. This record made by our team completely sur passes that of any other institution of the state which is in any way comparable to ours in size. We do not fear contradiction when we say we hav6 the third best team in the state. Every man on the line-up deserves special mention for acquitting him self as a good sport and playing the game with determination. J. G. Frazier is a wonder with a basketball. The Davidsonian says of him, "He handles the ball to per fection." J. W. Frazier is also a forward remembered for his good playing wherever he goes. Mackie at center and Ferrell and Thomas as guards, although holding the po sition to which the least honor is assigned by those judging the game by the score only, deserve the hearty applause of every Guilfordian for the skillful manner in which they played. Every student is proud of the team and proud of every man on it. With the prospect good for the return of every one of these players next year, what do you say to the state championship? With this year's fine experience to build on and the rousing support of an enthusiastic student body, the outlook for next year's success is the brightest in years. What Do You Think Of Us? Notice, alumni, faculty, students, and all who are interested in Guil ford. The Guilfordian is your paper and printed for your benefit. For sometime it has been made-up almost exclusively of news and opin ions collected and expressed by the small group whose names appear on the editorial page. Do you ap prove of this, or do you see opinions stated that you disagree with? Haven't you some thought in mind that you would like to see in print? Several weeks ago it was an nounced through this column that an open forum would be run. We are glad for the things that have been published under this head. However most of them have been written by members of the staff, so the circle has really not been enlarged noticeably. It is our fault or yours that we haven't received more contributions? If it is ours, write us what it is; if it is yours, get busy. ♦ * An Important Question What is college training supposed to do for an individual? The re mainder of this paper might be filled with ideas on the question but we are speaking of practical things. Last week a rather interesting test was given to the students. On one night the coloreed singers from Hampton Institute visited the col lege. They gave a splendid per formance before an appreciative audience which filled the audito rium to its seating capacity. Scarcely a student was away. On another night Mr. R. P. Lane of the American Junior Red Cross lectured on the International problems centering around the French invasion of the Ruhr. The lecture was filled with information which every colleege studnt should know. Mr. Lane spoke to considerably leess than half the number present at the above mentioned event. It is doubtful if half of the students were there. Several times during the lecture a disturbance was caused by some rest less fellows who persisted in going out and coming in. It is not our purpose to draw conclusions, the facts are merely stated to show what actually hap pened. Doubtless both of the en tertainments were worth while, but did the students choose exactly as college students would be expected to choose? Eminent Ornothologist Coming (Continued from page 1) While he talks with the authority of science upon birds and their songs, Mr. Gorst's lecture is so packed with human interest that it proves of interest even to those city dwellers whose knowledge of birds is limited to the English spar row. He is an eloquent and ready talker and his lecture here will prove of unusual interest. THE GUILFORDIAN DEPARTMENT NOTES Spanish Club Well Organized Miss Hoffman reports that there will be a Spanish club organized next week. This club will meet weekly and engage in Spanish con versation. This is sure to be an interesting phase of the Spanish work and will enable the Spanish students to put into practice what they have learned. * * * Cookery Class Serves Dinner On Wednesday evening of last week the first year cookery class served a four course supper in the Home Economics dining room. A color scheme of red, white and blue was very effectively carried out in celebration of Washington's birthday. The place cards were led hatchets, and red cherries form ed a conspicuous part of the course. The guests were Professor and Mrs. L. L. White and Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Peele. The host and host ess were Clara Coble and Louise Frazier: waitresses, Grace Smithdeal and Olive Jinnette; cooks, Mary Mitchell and Bertha Neal. * * * Practice Housekeeping Closes For Year The last group of practice house keepers finished their work on last Wednesday. This has been the most practical work they have had for each group had more time to stay at the practice cottage. The period of practice house keeping was a continuation of the work done in the dietetics laborato ry. It was a culmination of the work of planning dietaries for the family group. They kept their household accounts for the length of time they were there and each day's menus were carefully planned and balanced. Each group served two dinners, entertaining at the first one, two student guests and at the second, four faculty guests. Included in the group are Nell Carroll, Vera Farlow, Ruth finch, Zelma Farlowe, Hope Motley and Luna Taylor. * * * Students Undertake Biological Project William Wolf and Paul Knight are making a detailed study of an imal tissue. Each step in the com plete process of killing, fixing, cut ting, straining and finally mounting of tissue on slides is being worked out in the biology laboratory. NATIONAL PROBLEMS DISCUSSED AT CHAPEL Dr. Elwood C. Perisho addressed the student body Wednesday morn ing on the subject "National Patriot ism". "Very closely related to national patriotism is the college patriot ism," said Dr. Perisho, "And it is necessary for all students to know the important problems that are be ing discussed in the 67th Congress now in session." The outstanding topics mentioned by the speaker were, the League of Nations; the Ship Subsidy bill; and the International court. Dr. Perisho stated that these three bills are the most important of the fourteen thousand other bills which are now pending in congress. He further emphasized the fact that it was necessary for the indi vidual to be bigger than party pre judice if he wants to be a true pa triot. "Be loyal citizens of the American Republic," concluded Dr. Perisho. | J. M. Hendrix & Co. | 1 SHOES § IS Not ordinary shoes, but good shoes at £3 ordinary prices J 223 S. Elm St., Greensboro, N.
