Guilford and Elon
It was a clean game, a hard
fought game between two well
matched teams. Guilford boys have
nothing to be ashamed of in the
score, and the way they played the
game is deserving of all the praise
we can give them.
A victory would have looked well
on the score sheet at this time. But
better than such a record is the
one made when two college teams
meet in a contest that is fought hard
to the finish, and yet always in the
spirit of fair play. Such was the
game Saturday; such is real foot
ball.
Will Student Government Again
Become An Issue?
What seems at times almost an
instinct is the human desire for
freedom from restraint, a desire that
expresses itself in the student in the
reckless defiance of regulations for
no other pleasure than that of the
adventure and excitement attached
to breaking a rule. The difference
in deportment of Guilford students
when rules are enforced and when
they are not seems to be negligible.
This is not criticism of existing
government; it is merely the facts
as we see them.
There are things which Guilford
students should not do, and there
is legislation in effect whose wisdom
we will not question. But when
honest confession of a misdemeanor
brings down immediately the dread
ed faculty mark, whereas flat de
nial by a brother participant in
the crime is not even investigated,
the legislation ceases to be effective.
Further than that, a new complex
develops, tie actual encouragement
of untruthfulness. Such cases are
of recent occurrence in Cox Hall
in connection with the regulation
against smoking.
Would it be wiser then to leave
the use of tobacco and other per
sonal offenses to the judgment of
the individual, and risk social pres
sure to take care of more disorderly
forms of conduct? Or shall we look
to some form of government where
thorough investigation and collection
of evidence are feasible? The courts
of the United States are thorough
going, evidence is carefully weighed,
and the mistakes are comparatively
few. And after all, they do not
condemn on the criminal's confes
sion.

T CONFERENCE AT BLUE
RIDGE REPORTED AT CHAPEL
The "Y," conference at Blue
Ridge in summer session as it was
seen and lived by the four delegates
of the local organization was the
subject of Thursday's chapel period
1 Personal incidents and impressions
made up the greater part of the
reports and through these the idea
of the conference and what it ac
| complished was set forth,
j James Barbee recounted the high
lights of the motor trip to '"The
Land cf the Sky" taking the students
to Blue Ridge and the site of Robert
E. Lee Hall in the heart of Caro
lina's scenic wonderland.
The type of men who addressed
the conference and their influence
on the delegates were discussed by
Russell Branson.
Glenn Lassiter continued, dwell
ing chiefly upon the spirit existing
among the boys attending the con
ference.
The reports were closed by M. H
Shore who summed up the impres
sions of the delegates when he said.
'"Blue Ridge," a little world to itself
where there is nothing to mar the
beauty of the mountains or stain
the character of christian men."
Guilford Alumni Enter Teaching
Profession
(Continued from page 1)
ed the best report of financial ad
ministration and the most careful
i
expenditure.
Guilford's Alumni are a making
a success of the profession. Various
reports have come to the college
proving this fact. One superinten
dent in speaking with President
Binford made the statement that he
like to employ Guilford students
as teachers because of "their whole
seme outlook on life. Another fa t
i has come to the authorities at Guil
ford—the state departments of edu
cation are looking favorably on Guil
ford graduates. Recently there
were between 150 and 2K) appli
cants for a position on the faculty
of a certain school. The lady in
charge of the decision chose a par
ticular girl because "she had been
at Guilford."
Guilford's fame as a trainer of
teachers has extended even beyond
the state. John Bancroft, prominent
cotton manufacturer of Wilmington,
Deleware, in an address recently
before the business men of his city
J spoke of "A Guilford College in
North Carolina which was turning
out teachers with a remarkable
amount of enthusiasm for theii
work." He went on to explain
that he was wonderfully impressed
with the spirit and enthusiasm that
he had seen displayed at Roanoke
Rapids where he had been on a
visit with the idea of locating a
factory there. Six of the teachers
in that school, including the super
intendent, E. J. Coltrane, are Guil
ford graduates. A statement com
ing from a man of this position
who has no connection with Guilford
College and made without any per
sonal reason, makes a good impres
sion for Guilford.
Miss Edith Hedgecock spent- thel
week-end at her home in High
Poiitt.
Miss Maude Simpson spent the |
week-end at her home in White
Plains.
Miss Ruth Sampson spent the
week-end at her home in Greens
boro.
THE GUILFORDIAN
Quakers Lose To Christians
(Continued from page 1)
Both teams played good football
and played it squarely. To both
victor and vanquished much cred
it is due for their manly exhibition
of clean college athletics.
Stars of Game
For Elon, Kirkland, Austin,
Smith and Hainer grabbed the
majority of the honors. Hovvev-
I er, it is very fitting to say here
that Elon's entire team played
wonderful football and should re
ceive much credit for their splen
did showing.
For Guilford, the entire team
cannot be given too much praise
for their unconquerable spirit,
and determined fight which they
displayed last Saturday. Around
Captain Mcßane, Warrick, Smith
and Shore the highest honors
should be placed. These four
furnished the backbone of the
Guilford team and through their
knowledge of the game, Guilford
was able to make her noble stand.
Running these a close second
in honors was the remainder of
the team; Neese Casey, Harrell
Knight. English. Lassiter and C.
Mcßane covered themselves with
glory in the way that will not be
soon forgotten by all that wit
nessed the game. It was through
their unfaltering efforts that the
Quaker team could hold in times
of need.
Ends Deserve Praise
Smith, and C. Mcßane, Guil
ford's two ends, deserve special
mention for their ability to grab
brilliantly chucked forward passes
must go to Warrick's great work
of Captain Mcßane and credit
in spilling the opposing offense

out. "What with her English fiddle
deedee and lorgenette, she com
pletely howls everyone over, until."
Harry James Smith has done
wonders with his subject. The
satire is obvious. The humor is
brilliant. The situations tense. It
is not high school play. It is a
play that ran for one year on
Broadway with Mrs. Fiske in the
title role and the favorable press
notices would fill a volume.
The cast is remarkably good. Mary
Lou Wilkins commands excellent
direct and sarcastic tones. Ethel
Watkins plays the part of the "not
quite finished and cultured mother"
of Mrs. Bumpstead-Leigh. William
Blair the oratorical and never silent
Pete Swallow of Missionary Loop,
Ind. Louise Frazier as the gushing
Mrs. Leavitt; Tom English as the
irate father; French Smith the ro
matic lover; Fred Winn the suave
villainous lover and so on. They
are all types. Such a play for
character types. Harry James Smith
has them all included.
