THE GUILFORDIAN
VOL XI
FOOTBALL WARRIORS ARE
PREPARING TO INVADE
TRINITYS BATTLEGROUND
EIGHT VARSITY MEN RETURN TO
LINE-UP; WHITE OF HH;H
POINT SHOWS ABILITY
Coach Robert Doak is again
rounding his fighting Quakers into
shape for the coming football
season. Eight men of last year's j
squad are back again submitting
themselves to Coach Doak's hard
drill preliminary to opening game
with Trinity College on October
4. There are excellent prospects
for the vacant positions anl by !
October 4, Guilford should have
an iron muscled eleven which will
be ready for the opening battle of i
the year. The old men returning |
are: Harrell, '"Block" Smith (cap- I
lain), Herring, Frazier, Thomas,
Neese, Warrick, and Casey. These i
men furnish the nucleus of the!
squad, and around these "knights
of the gridiron"' Coach expects to
build up a powerful machine. Har
rell plays a right guard: "Block"
Smith, end; Herring, left tackle; 1
Neese, left guard; while Warrick
spends his time at the pivotal
position. "Shorty" Frazier, a third I
year man, now occupies the quar
ter back position. His short agile
body is especially adapted to sub
stantial end runs; and when it be
comes necessary to buck the line,
"Shorty" is right there.
Thomas and Casey, halfbacks,
possess no small portion of the
stamina of the backfield. They are
endowed with eel-like character
istics which enable them to slip
through the enemy's line.
Harrell, "Block" Smith, Herr
ing. Neese, and Warrick form the
backbone of the line. With these
experienced men reinforced by the j
prospective new line men, the
Quakers should build up a first
class defense that would be hard
to break through.
Of the yast year's scrubs the fol
lowing men are showing real foot
ball mettle: Clyde Mcßane, Lind
ley. "Hank" Tew, Pate, Reynolds, j
Hammond, Holt, Martin, and Wel
born. These men are strongly
competing for positions on the
varsity squad. Clyde Mcßane did
some creditable work on the end
in last year's game with Elon,
while Lindley, Hammond and
Holt have done some good line
work.
Reynolds has served the scrub
team well in the capacity of quar
ter back.
The new men who have donned
the Crimson and Gray uniform
and appear dailv on the field of
combat, are: M urrav White, of

ADJUSTMENT IS SUBJECT
OF PROF. NEWLIN S TALK
"The Importance of Ideals" was !
the subject of Prof. R. L. New
lin s chapel talk on Monday, Sept. i
He mentioned the necessity !
oi obtaining the confidence jbf
ones fellow students and his home

his home people, according to Mr.

Mr. Newlin mentioned consruc
live and destructive criticism and
t-e.i ed the destructive critic as
one who always sees the bad qual
it:e.- of a person or community.

the ideals of the founders. It is ,
necessary to think about self prep- .
aration but that is not sufficient
for self development is not the

life's highest goal. Try to be of ,
some service to the other fellow." ,

TOM A. SYKES CONDUCTS
OPENING JOINT Y MEETING
CHALLENGES STUDENTS TO MAKE
THEMSELVES A PART OF
GUILFORD
Tom Sykes, pastor of the
| Friends church of High Point, con
ducted a joint meeting of the local
Christian asssociations in the first
meeting of the year held in Mem
orial Hall, Thursday evening at
| 7 o'clock.
The speaker opened his address
with a tribute to Guilford, and a
word of welcome and encourage
ment, especially to the new stu
dents. He then challenged each
student not only to become a part
of Guilford but to contribute to
the good of the whole.
"You," he continued, "are the
foundation of tomorrow's success.
What will you use as an anchor?
Is Christianity to you a relic of by
gone days, a tradition? Or is it
a dynamic force in life? It is time
for a revolution in moral enthu
siasm. Self-expression is being
advanced to the neglect of self
control. Creed and form have too
often been substituted for personal
goodness."
In conclusion, Mr. Sykes ex
pressed the hope that the Chris
tian associations on the campus
would mark the way to the birth
of a new devotion to Guilford.
ELIZABETH S. DUDE 25
DIES DURING SUMMER
PASSES AWAY QUIETLY IN WINSTON
SALEM AFTER LONG ILLNESS
The death of Elizabeth Cude on
Sunday, June 2, came as a great
shock to all of her classmates, and
her death has been a cause of
great sorrow to all the students of
Guilford and friends throughout
the state.
She was born August 6, 1900.
Her parents were Callie Stanley
and Charles Cude. After attend
ing Winston High School for three
years, Elizabeth went to Cleveland
Bible Institute, Cleveland, Ohio,
where she spent one year. Re
turning to North Carolina she at
tended Saleih College for one
year. In September, 1920, Eliza
beth entered Guilford as a sopho
more. The following two years
she was forced to stay out of
school on account of ill heialth,
but in 1923 she returned once
more to Guilford and entered as a
member of the Junior class.
Elizabeth was a member of the
Friends church of Winston-Salem
and was one of its most active
members. It was not enough that
she be an active member of the
church but she started a mission in
East Winston and a few years later
another mission in the same city.
In Y.W.C.A. at Guilford she took
a mots active part and her influ
ence was greatly felt. The Y.W.
C.A. will miss the inspiration of
her work and interest.
Those who attended the funeral
and heard the description of how
Elizabeth died expressed the be
lief that it was the most beautiful
death of which they had ever
heard.
The tribute of the girls of Guil
ford is: "That knowing Elizabeth
Cude has been an inspiration; that
she has lived a most beautiful life;
and, lastly, that she was the most
consecrated Christian which we
have ever known."
Besides her parents, Mr. and
Mrs. C. S. Cude of Winston-Salem,
she is survived by one sister Mar
jorie Cude and two brothers, Rob
ert and Joseph Cude, all of Win
ston-Salem.

OPENING SOCIAL EVENT
GAY DESPITE WEATHER
V.M. AND Y.W.C.A VERY SUCCESSFUL
IN ENTERTAINING NEW SIXDENTS
The annual opening reception,
given by the oung Men s and
loung Women's Christian Asso
ciations, was held Saturday even
ing, the 2(Jth, in the college libra
ry, from 8:00 to 10:30 o'clock.
Rain, cold drizzly wind, grey
ish-black clouds—it seemed a con
spiration of nature to break up all
hopes of strolls in the proverbial
pale moonlight, with the balmy
air and twinkling stars to match.
It was nature that was fooled this
time, however, for the library,
bare except for rows of chairs and
a few book-cases, with the lights
reflecting in the cleaned windows
and on the polished floor, was the
scene of gay crowds. True there
have been receptions and recep
tions given there, but the spirit of
this last one was such that it more
than counteracted any dreariness
elements.
or rebelliousness of the favorable
After the formal procedure in
which each old student safely pi
loted a freshman or new student
through the first fright and awe
of the receiving line, all formality
and reserve, and oven dsgnity,
vanished and a jollier crowd one
never saw before.
College students were, of course,
glad to see and talk one to another
after the summer vacation. But
the most interesting part of the
evening was spent in meeting and
welcoming the new students and
(he alumni. There were many
members of the class of '24 pres
ent.
The little gray books with crim
son cord and pencils were given
to everyone, and most of them
were filled with signatures and
remembrances by 10:30, when the
whole crowd was literally driven
home. Some of the names will
never again be recognizable, on
j account of the rather adverse cir
cumstances under which the writ
ing was done, but the crimson and
gray books will always be kept as
a most cherished reminder of
Guilford.
There was excellent punch,
without which no Guilford recep
tion would be complete. The re
maining members of last year's
Glee club sang their favorite num
bers, not new, but never old.
THREE OF G. C.FACULTY
WORKING ON DOCTORATES
PROFESSOR FARRIS TEACHES AT U
OF W. VA.; PROFESSOR AND MRS.
DANN TRAVEI. ABROAD
Some of the members of last
year's Guilford College faculty are
literally scattered to the four
winds of the earth. Three mem
bers are working on their doctor's
degree. Prefessor F. C. Anscombe
who for five years was head of
the History department at Guil
ford is studying at the Universi
ty of North Carolina and is doing
some teaching in the department
of History there.
Joseph Dixon White who during
1922-23 and 1923-24 was Pro
fessor of Chemistry at Guilford, is
completing his second year's work
on his Ph.D. at Harvard Univer
sity. During the summer Pro
fessor White had charge of Camp
Tecumseh, a boy's camp at Center
Harbor, N. H.
M iss Hedwig H. Hoffmann who
for the past two years has been

PRES. RAYMOND RINFORD
ADDRESSES STDDENTS ON
NEW DAY AT GUILFORD
i URGES STUDENTS TO LOOK UPON
GUILFORD AS THEIR HERITAGE
OF A CENTURY
President Raymond addressed
the students on "The New Day at
Guilford College," at the opening
chapel exercises of the year on
Wednesday, September 18. He
mentioned the fact that 261 stu
dents had registered, a far greater
number of college students than
lever before at Guilford. He nam
ed the improvements made in the
buildings, and the improvements
jthat will be made during the year.
He stressed the significant fact
that these conveniences and the
buildings are the property of the
i college students while they are
here. "We want these buildings,"
J asserted the speaker, "to be yours
in the fullest possible sense. Pre
serve them for others use. All
{depends on the use of what you
have here."
Turning to the college program,
he stressed the importance of fol
lowing a definite program of
mental, and physical exercise,
with a provision for spiritual de
velopment, and presented the pro
gram as one which experience has
shown to be best adapted to the
conditions here.
The speaker emphasized the im
portance of the location of the col
lege in a cultured community as
an aid to the development of cul
ture in the student. He maintain
ed that time is an essential factor
in character building, and stated
the purpose of the college to ac
quaint the student with the large
fields of knowledge.
In a plea for individuality Dr.
1 Binford said, "We are terribly
afraid to be different from others.
| We need positiveness, stability of
character. This is a time when
people are concerned with mater
ialism, and this is resulting in a
wave of criminality. The solu
tion of this is in love and service.
M oral and spiritual courage are
needed in the world today, for
young people can contribute noth
ing to the world till they have ac-
I quired this moral and spiritual
power. The only remedy for the
present serious condition of the
world is the revival of moral and
spiritual power. The most im
portant thing that Guilford Col
lege can do for the student is to
instill into every life a profound
conviction of moral obligation. I
hope to instill into every serious
mind a great determination to
eliminate everything that will hin
der development. The world needs
a new vision of the things that
count, a new baptism of that pow
er for righteousness. You will
never find a better field for its
exercise than herp at Guilford
College."
