March 6, 1929 QUAKES The basketball season just closed could not be termed a successful one. However, the Quaker team did have brilliant moments and did win some difficult sanies, defeating such teams as Wofford and Wake Forest and giv ing the Richmond Blues, a strong pro fessional team of Virginia, a run for their money. That the Quakers had championship material is quite obvious, but the loss of Hawortb and Coble and the injury of Marshall certainly put a crimp in Guilford's title hopes. Now we may turn to next year's chances. With Chisholm, Alley, Ha worth, Yelverton, Cheek, and Stout around whom to build, it seems that a strong team should be produced. Quite often the freshman class holds varsity material as happened last year when Haworth, who was a yearling, held the season's scoring honors. Now baseball is at hand. Shepard has already held light workouts and the prospects are fair. Much will de pend upon the pitching staff. The de velopment .of new material or the re turn of Gough would certainly brighten the general aspect. Much interest is shown in the sport, both by the candi dates and the student body. The editor's attention has been called to the last issue of the Jli-Po which elaborated lengthily on a recent mis take in Quakes. We assure the Ui-Po that it was a mistake and not an inten tional falsehood as they were disposed to fear. Spring football has certainly been a success this year and has brought to light some heretofore unheralded foot ball material and has given experience to many. Davis, especially, shows promise as a back while several pros pective linemen were hauled from un der the bushel measure. Many fresh men who were afraid to go out last fall took part in the spring sport, dis covered their capabilities and will un doubtedly be varsity material some day. Students! Attention! Make a day's wages for one hour's work after classes. No experience or investment necessary. We have an opening at Guilford College. Applications considered in order of their receipt.

Invad ing the Quaker camp, the Elonites took the heavy end of a 29-27 score in one of the hardest played and most closely contested games ever witnessed in the wood-box. The game was close from the start, and it was early evident that neither team had a set-up. The Christians were out to avenge a previous defeat, and the Quakers were set on keeping a clean slate. The Elon boys held a slight edge during most of tfie first period, maintaining a one or two point lead. Just before the gun, however, the Quakers sunk one to tie the score at 10 ail. In the second half, the Guilford lads started oft' like a flash and soon had the Christians under a seven point handicap. At this point, every one felt that the Quaker boys had the game on ice. However, the Elon boys seemed not nearly so pessimistic and started a rally which ended in a 29-27 count in their favor. Van der Voort was easily high scorer of the Quakers despite the fact that he seemed unable to make a free shot good. Rollins led the Elon attack. The game meant a great deal to the team and the college, because it was the season's last game and was with the greatest rival. However, it was of greater significance to Captain Mar shall, Stan Moore, Robert Ayers and Van der Voort. It was, for these men, .♦ See ISAACSON'S for your next Suit or Florsheim Shoes and Furnishings Ask Scott Benton and Save Money 308 S. Elm St. Greensboro, N.

Page Three FIRST OF SERIES Cude Passes to Ha worth Who Dashes for a Touchdown Early in the Game DAVIS STARS FOR LOSERS Golden Stream Scores Safety When Patrick Fails to Get Off Punt Guilford College, Fob. 28.—Coach lloyle's "Iron Men" football team won a hard fought grid battle here this afternoon from the "Golden Stream" squad, 7-2. The winners scored in the opening minutes of play when Hawortli re ceived a beautiful pass from Cude and raced 40 yards for the only touch down. The same combination was good for the extra point. The "Golden Stream" managed to score a safety near the close of the game when the "Iron Men" were unable to get off a punt. The game was played in the rain and mud, which was ankle deep, and soon covered the players and made it hard to distinguish the men on either side. The condition of the field made it impossible for the fast backs to get going and as a result very few yards were made through the line or around the ends. Captain Patrick and Hawortli, ends on the "Iron Men" team, were the stars of the game. Patrick played a beauti ful defensive game while the combina tion of Cude-to-Haworth was the greatest ground gainer for the winners. Cude showed fine judgment at quarter, this being his first attempt. Davis for the losers was the only man to gain any ground all afternoon by carrying the ball. He reeled off several nice gains and with a dry held lie promises to be a real threat. Iron Men Golden Stream Patrick Kosenfelt L. E. Pierce Reece L. T. Valentine Jackson L. G. Booker Short C.
