Member of North Carolina Collegiate Press Association EDITORIAL What Do You Say? The approach of Autumn brings to the numerous colleges a renewal of interest in what is generally con sidered the greatest college sport. Football, unlike some other ath letic games, cannot be played for any professional reason, but must be entered into merely for the love of the game. It requires the com plete cooperation of 11 men and their utmost effort both mental and physical. Some students and their parents object to football and such students should not play. But the men who go into it wholeheartedly develop a strong physique and a love for the game which they never lose. In spite of whatever may be said, the fact remains that the athletic achievements of college are sized up to a great extent by its attainment on the gridiron. Here at Guilford we have a husky bunch of pigskin chasers out working hard every afternoon. Those men are standing bruises and knocks without flinch ing in order to make you proud of the work of your college team for the next two months. There is something radically wrong with the attitude of the student body toward their efforts. It is easy to say we are behind the team, but those football players are human and unless they are shown in more certain terms that their efforts are appreciated by their fellow students, they are going to have a harder battle next Saturday when they meet a strong team and an enthusiastic group of rooters. It is not our purpose to criticise harshly the men who do not play football, even though it would be justifiable. However, do the new students realize that Guilford has a football team? If they do surely they have not learned it from any pep meetings or organized support from the old students. Only twice has there been any attempts towards practicing the college yells, and then just as much interest would have been shown if the yells had been for volley ball. Wake up, cheer leaders and old students, as well as new ones, and let's put some pep into our teams. If there is not something done in a few weeks there will be some students going around with their heads down saying that Guilford is losing out in football. It will be your fault, too, for no college team has ever been verv successful with- out support. We are proud of those fighters who are on the athletic field every afternoon, so let's tell them about it. Get in With the Spirit There is every evidence of the development of a splendid reli gious atmosphere at the college this year. The Young Men's and oung W omen's Christian Asso ciations show signs of increased activity, perhaps largely due to the work of those who attended the Blue Ridge Conference last summer. Now is the time when an extra effort should be made to get the freshmen to take an active part in the religious activities of campus life. New never again will you have the opportunity you have now of making your college career the very best possible. The forces which will determine your future can be changed or molded now easier than at any other year of your life. Consequently we wish to call your attention to the "Y" meeting each Thursday evening as well as the regular student Sunday school. It is doubtful if there is any phase of college life that does more to ward the development of noble man hood, miles of running, and pass discussions held at these times. QUAKER QUIPS (ireeting, everybody. The Quip family has just returned from its vacation, full of pep for the year, and determined not to make cut ting remarks or pointed sugges tions. jj Jjl Freshman decorated with med als for bravery are advised that green and gold are the junior col ors. Better drop one or the other. Until we become acquainted with the new cook we cannot dis cuss the hash, and consequently have no subject to fall back upon. ❖ * * Having been accustomed to camptire breakfasts, we cannot be perfectly at ease on the new din ing room floor. It maketh us to sit down in unexpected places. * * * We venture the following in formation to those it may concern: Bath tickets are unnecessary luxuries. "Conflicts" are neither purchas- I able nor contagious. Cuts are supposed to be dis tributed indiscriminately. If you don't receive one, report to the college surgeon. The library is not conducted on the conversational method. * * * Our idea of a janitor is a fellow who makes you keep your room clean. * * * Dessert is a conglomeration of anything that does not lend itself to the production of hash and soup. Naturally it is a rare pro duct. * * "Be it ever so humble, there's no place like home; Be it ever so homely, there's no face like your own.'"—Contributed Miss Ruth Ragsdale had as week end guests, Misses Alva and Evelyn Gaswick of Winston-Salem, Miss Cassandra Penn of Madison and Miss Margaret Armfield of James town. THE GUILFORD IAN £ DEPARTMENT NOTES Sixty-Four Take New Course Sixty-four students have regis-' tered for Mathematical Analysis, one of tlie new courses offered this year in the Mathematical Depart ment.

As yet they have not i>een listed but will be accessible in a few days time. The librarian requests that the heads of the different departments hand in their list of books to be ordered during the next few days as she wishes to make the order. She also extends an invitation to students to sub mit lists of books in which they are interested and which they would like to see in the library. * * * Pleased With Nursing Class Miss Kopf is very much pleased with the new class in nursing j that has been added to the cur riculum this year. A large num ber have registered for this course and the course promises to be very interesting and instructive The class in dietitics has been change to one in Methods. Al though this is a small class there is promise of good work. * * * The first number of the Lyceum will be given on Saturday eve ning, October the 20th.

Several new improvements have been made in the Biological I Laboratory recently. Among the most outstanding ones are the new tables that have been placed along the southern end 1 , of the laboratory for the purpose of making room for eight more stu dents. Five new microscopes have been purchased so that it is now possible for five more students to work at a time. Mr. Paul Jones, traveling sec retary for the Fellowship of Re conciliation, will be at the college on October 21st and will address the student body during his stay here. How few men are willing to bet on themselves! * * * Opportunity knocks but once— people are not so considerate. 9| 9i( $ Beware of the temperamental man who refuses to observe office hours. £', i;::,;ii!;!'i!'! .J:,::: '.ill ■ ;a■■':i an r :;ni ji i ii'i'iiiiiiii:;,! i:;i;::!!!ii!i!!:iii immiiiisiri:;; liiiiiiiiilllllllllililiililillllllllilillllliiiiiniii !
