ALUMNI NEWS |
NOTE: All Old Students and
Alumni who are planning to come
to the College for the big home
coming at commencement will do the
Guilfordian a special favor if they
will send a card to the Registrar,
Guilford College, stating their inten
tion. A list of those planning to
be here will be published in this .
column each week.
The following Alumni have said
that they are hoping to be present
at the home coming next commence
ment :
Clare Davis, 'l3.
Mrs. C. S. McArthur I Anna Davis
'l3).
Hugh Stewart, 'l3.
Mrs. Russell Wood (Ella Young
'l3).
Alva E. Lindley, 'OB.
Mrs. R. B. Wilson (Mabelle Rai
ford. '08).
1904.
D. Ralph Parker, 'O4, is a resi
dent salesman in the Southern Fur
niture Exposition Building, High
Point, representing ten of the larger
High Point furniture factories. He
is a member of the executive com
mittee of the district council of Boy
Scouts, and president of the Kiwanis
Club. He is an active member of
the Friends Church and teacher of
a class of young men in the Friends
Sunday school.
Mr. Parker is a member of the
Board of Trustees of Guilford Col
lege and has the welfare, of the col
lege very much at heart. He has
made a rather large contribution to
the endowment fund and was one
of the most active workers in the
Guilford endowment campaign in his
home town.
The city of High Point likes Guil
ford men, or, perhaps, Guilford men
like High Point. Any way, Mr.
Parker says:
"At least fifty per cent of the busi
ness concerns in High Point are
headed by Guilfordians or have
Guilfordians in responsible posi- :
tions."
1908.
A few days ago Dr. Binford re
ceived a letter from Mrs. R. B ;
Wilson (Mabelle Raiford, '()J)
which she inclosed a pledge fo 1
$125.00 to the endowment fund.
She stated her intention of being
present at the home coming at com
mencement.
1911.
Jennie and Li I lie Bulla have for
the past three years been living in
Florida. They have an apartment
at 115 Euclid Ave., Leesburg, Fla.
Jennie takes care of the domestic
side of the firm while Lillie teaches
history in the high school. Lillie
attended the University of Florida
during the summer of 1923. For
a year before going to Florida she
did welfare work in connection with
clerical work at Badin, N. C.
Both Jennie and Lillie are mem
bers of the class of 1911. Both
were good students while at Guil- !
ford, Lillie having won the Marvin
Hardin and the Bryn Mawr scholar
ships. Both were good workers in
the various college activities, espe
cially in the Y. W. C. A., and as
members of the Quaker Staff and
Collegian Staff.
1913.
Kinnie T. Futrell, 'l3, is superin
tendent of the Department of Public-

Fran-es Moore, '2O. is teaching
Junior High School work in the
Selina High School. She attended
the summer session at the Univer
sity of North Carolina during the
summer of 1923. Miss Moore
writes thus:
"I can only say that I appreciate
• more each day the training and
I ideals I received at Guilford. I
don't think that in any college in the
State is there so much stress laid
'upon character building. Of course,
I appreciate the academic training
I received there also but I appre
ciate far more the ideals of char
acter and a truly worthwhile life.
The influences received there have
been a great help to me and I am
anxious to see Guilford grow and
have a bigger opportunity to be of
service to the youths of the State."
While at Guilford Miss Moore
took much interest in college activi
ties, especially in the Y. W. C. A.

society. And, too, there was music,
furnished by several vocally inclined
musicians, girls from the college,
accompanied by twanging ukeleles.
The waitresses were also college
girls, dressed attractively in white
Hoover costumes trimmed with green
ribbon and green shamrocks.
The wailing charm of the uke
leles, and the soft greenish glow of
the shaded lights—all this was over
powered by some mysterious un
known outside attraction, and the
j couples, after they had finished their
suppers, spent elsewhere the re
mainder of the precious time allowed
tliejn.
It is necessary to say only one
i thing more to prove that the affair
j was a complete success. Fifty
| dollars was the sum taken in by the
I Christian Endeavor society. This is
almost twice as much as they had
| hoped to receive. Miss Maude
I Simpson, the president of the so-
II iety, was hostess for the evening.
