EDITORIAL A NEW DAY "The New Day for Guilford," which President Binford took as his theme in the opening address of the year is the expressed con scious realization that has been gradually permeating the whole Guilford "world" for the past year or so. The feeling was ex pressed in thought many times last spring when the thousand old students, Alumni and friends of the College made a pilgrimage to Guilford and saw for themselves, and felt for themselves, this change that is coming about; this constant growth in material con struction, student standards, for eign prestige. "The New Day' lias not arrived in full: it is now just at its dawn. But that the dawn has arrived is sufficient to laise our hopes, and as long as there is hope the high-noon will be the goal. May Guilford always tiavel toward the high-noon! SIX AT BLUE RIDGE (Continued from page 1) tional Relationships and the Chris tian Ideal," "International Rela tionships and Jesus' Way of Life.' Keneth Neece, June Lineback, Thomas HadleyJ Edwin Brown, James Barbee, and Marvin Shore, '24, who was employed by the Blue Ridge Association for sum mer work, were Guilford's repre sentatives at the conference. Guilford stood high in the field of athletics at Blue Ridge. Due to the skillful playing of Edwin Brown, Guilford won in tennis singles from the University of S. C., Rollins College, Fla.. and Ber ea College, Ky. Edwin Brown and his brother Walter won in tennis doubles from Randolph-Macon. Berea, and University of S. C. They lost to the University of Mississippi by a close score. Guil ford played in the semi-finals in both singles and doubles but was beaten by a small margin. Not only in athletics did Guil ford show up well but also in class attendance. Every delegate was present at nearly every ses sion, from 8:00 o'clock in the morning to 1:00 p. m. The after noon from 2:30 o'clock until 6:00 o'clock was given over to directed recreation. Then beginning at 7:00 o'clock until 9:00 o'clock at night classes were in session. Problems concerning the whole world were discussed. College and Association problems were also discussed and an attempt was made to solve these. Suggestions foi improvement were at least made when the problems could not be solved. It is the hope of the Guilforn "Y" that continued interest in Blue Ridge will be noticed. In the words of one of the delegates, "Let us hope to increase the num ber of delegates as well as seek to bring about a new day for the young men of Guilford.' NEWS GATHERED FROM OVERFLOWING BY WAYS By ICatherine Shields j \ iewed from a quiet corner in ' the library, the reading room now- 1 a-days presents a sce;ie of much 1 bustle and activity. Every hour 1 period brings a new influx of ' students searching for reference books, material for debate; fresh men hunting for reserved lists, old students crowding around the ■ paper rack and magazine shelf, and groups at every table busy with papers and pencil, diction-' aries and encyclopedias. Miss Ricks is planning to give lectures to the freshmen on the use 1 of the library, its facilities and work, during the next few weeks. ' At present she is busy re-ar- j 1 ranging and cataloguing new 1 books, and although there may be j soniQ slight inconvenience now, owing to the shifting, she hopes that ultimately it will help to make the library more accessible. A scholarship to some accredit- | ed library school has been offered : to Miss Nell Chilton, who is act ing as one of the assistants this year. Haverford college has recently | donated a large and varied collec tion of books. These have not yet been catalogued, but are now in the process and will soon be avail able. The librarian is also mak ing out a list of new books to be j ordered and has posted a notice to the effect that suggestions for new j books will be gladly received. The kitchen, dining room, and living room of the Domestic sci ence department are undergoing renovation. Paint, varnish, and enamel are in evidence; new cur- j tains are being made and hung; j chairs and tables and other fur niture are having a new coat ot paint, and all of this is being done by the class in Household manage- j ment. In another section of the labor atory the class in canning is busy preserving fruits for the winter, j while in still another section, hoards of bobbed haired freshmen are worrying over the intricate problems of Costume designing and House Planning. Several new stoves have been ordered—probably to accomodate the class in Cookery II which is the largest on record fo rthe de partment. The Chemistry department like wise reports a record class that numbers almost one hundred. Ac cording to some wiseacres, judg ing from the domestic science courses and chemistry matricu lation, and also the Physics I class I which totals about forty, and Bi ologv I. which boasts of nearly fifty members, there should be some rather hard work going on in the various laboratories in j Memorial and King halls. At the present writing, the Bi ological 1 students are botanical ly bent, and are making collections and studies of the various trees on the campus. The class spent Tues dav afternoon of the second week collecting leaves from various trees, and debating whether the small tree, covered with red ber- j ries that stands near the power house is dogwood, and if or not the four small trees in the New | Garden walk were cedars or juni pers. A new course in advanced Eng lish. officially listed as English V II lias been started by Professor Wil son, head of the English depart ment. It stands on record for be ing the only class given on the campus wherein the students may choose and study what they will. At present they have unanimously elected to use the Atlantic Monthly as a text book, and are reading various plays, stories, articles, and poems, and attempting to write in an imitative manner, on any and every topic. It is rumored that Professor Wilson has threatened to flunk the eleventh one who tries to en ter, and any and all who do not read Andy Gump ardently. THE GUILFORDIAN ALUMNI NOTES 1897 T.
