Not in figures, but as good, clean sports, who fought to the last whistle with a grit and determination that even surprised Wake Forest. Wake Forest ex pected to defeat Guilford; Guil ford had expected to be defeated by Wake Forest. The game played was not for the score; it was for the game itself. And when a con test resolves itself into a game for the sport itself, then true athletic combat is at its greatest. Wake Forest has built up, what is con sidered by the greater number, the strongest State football machine of the season; that Guilford should meet and be defeated by the best, has even its major advantages. ♦ * * The time has come, the walrus might have said in view of the ap proaching quarterly exams, to be gin to study. * * * The Virginia Robins Orchestra, which made such a creditable showing with the Glee Club last winter, will give its first public concert of the year on December 10. With the addition of the new members (the orchestra now num bers 13) the organization bids fair to become a great credit to Guilford, and one of the outstand ing organizations of the year. Guilford has every reason to ex pect great things from the Vir ginia Robins and will be right proud of them when they make their formal debut on December 10. * * * In view of the social Saturday night, it might be said that to those who persist in being blind, the way was dark; and to those who failed to follow the beaten path of the general mob, the way was rough and beset with barbed fences, and ditches of varying depths. Such, according to gener al fvnics, is the way of all things. ♦ * ♦ The work of the Dramatic coun cil is now under way, and they will stage their seventh semi-annual production on December 6, in a presentation of Strong's '"Three Wise Fools." | They have high standards of past years to meet. The time is limited. The old diffi culties of choosing a "proper" play, and casting it were met with a great degree of success. How ever, at this season of the game, it is a lottery. But the play is a sure fire hit, and with an able corps of directors headed by Professor Hodgin, it should be an outstand ing success for the Dramatic coun cil. *>,*** Any sophomore who has attain ed the required number of hours for class standing should be eligi ble for leads in the new play 'Three Wise Fools.'' Sophomore, as you know, comes from the Greek, sopho (wise) and moria fool). There is much in a name, whatever a genial sophomore may say.' Collegiate Press Ass'n. (Continued from page one) ences from the two points ol form and spirit. According to Doctor Johnson the newspaper must give facts, while the magazine may en large upon the facts and search out the truth, ile explained to tin delegates the distinct difference be tween truth and fact. He also slated that newspaper writing was neither art nor literature, but that its bulk must be informative. The cardinal rule of both newspaper and magazine writing is—'"Be in teresting." Form and dignity may suffer in the process of creating interest, but truth must never suf fer. The four points on which interest centers are: simplicity, clearness, brevity, and fon*v Professor Johnson said that star reporters almost invariably be come good magazine writers, and vice-versa. In closing he suggested the mot to: "Speak of me as I am," for all newspaper and magazine writers. During the whole convention of nearly three days all the delegates were made to feel at home, and no gaps were left in which no one knew what to do. On Thursday evening the mem bers were given an informal re ception at Greensboro college, and they were entertained by amateur performers of the college girls themselves. N. C. C. W. entertained the As sociation at a most delightful luncheon on Friday in the Alumni Tea House. On Friday night they were given a banquet at Greens boro college, after which the dele gates went to inspect the new printing outfit of the Greensboro Daily News. Publications represented at this •onvention were: The Davidson ian. The Salemite, The Tar Heel, The Carolinian, The Twig, The Davidson Magazine, The Messen ger, The Archive, The Acorn, The Davenport Weekly Rconl, The Trinity Chronicle. Queen's Blues, Guilfordian and The Old Gold and Black. ALUMNI NOTES James Anderson 'O9 is assistant ; manager of the Great Western Power Company in Sacremento, California.

This is a co educational college under state, supervision, having nine hundred students and sixty teachers.

C. THE GUILFORUI AN THE WAGGING TONGUE By Beutah Allen If you would be in style (that is in slang) don't let anyone hear you say "jazz"' for that is an ob solete term. From "The Crito graph" J clipped this bit of news— "Syncopep" is the latest addi tion to the vast Music Family. It is the infant brother to Classic, Ragtime and Jazz Music, other members of the family who pre ceded it. Several months ago Mr. Davis head of the Meyer Davis Orches tra Organization, got the idea that ' the word '"Jazz," which was for long used to convey the idea of modern dance music, had ceased to be expressive, and invited radio fans to supply a new word. A prize of one hundred dollars was offered to the winner of the con- ' test. With the aid of the more power ful radio stations in the country as well as newspapers, magazines and other periodicals, he invited ra- i dio fans to offer suggestions for a new word that would be more de scriptive of the popular music of to-day. As a result more than 700.000 replies were received and out of the vast number the word 1 "Syncopep" was selected as the | most fitting. The "Lone Star State" has fur- j nished this piece of gossip which I now pass on to you (as all true gossipers do) ! The K.K.K. has been organized in Simmons College (Texas)—not ; the ku KluxKlan, but the Kampus Kids Klub, consisting of girls in Mary Francis Hall. The Klub chose the "aster ' as their ilawer, and "Kuttin' Kute Kapers" as their motto. The officers of the club arc the Kaptain, Korrespondent, Kash ier, Korister, Ivutup, Kut ie, Klown, Komedian, Kow, Kad, Kit ty, Komittee, Kartoonist. All college students are more or less interested in the Youth Move ment so it will be interesting to learn that "There is being published, in 1 Geneva, under the auspices of Eu ropean student relief, a monthly j i paper which has for its aim the de velopment of mutual knowledge ' and understanding among students lof all nations. The pubilcation is called "Vex Studentium," and con -1 tinues articles in various languag jes on the situations! in several countries which are participating l in the Youth Movement. These articles are well illustrated and, i for the most part, of a distinct val ! ue.— Salemite. LEST THIS BE TOO PROSAIC, let me add the "find," taken from the N. C. State paper. HIAWATHA By thfe shores of Cuticura, By the sparkling Pluto Water Lived the prophylactic Chiclet—- ! Danderlin, fair Chevrolet's daugh ter ?

MISS LOUISE IMPROVING SITS UP A FEW MINUTES Miss Louise's condition is very much improved. She was strong enough to be allowed to sit up in bed for a few minutes Sunday. Physicians are confident that she will he able to return to the Col lege for convalescence in a few weeks time. 1 J.M.HENDRIX&CO. SHOES x t X 223 S. Elm St. Greensboro, N. C. X ♦ t MITT YOUNTS GEO.
