Page Four QUAKER SPORTS Guilford Quakers Trim Eton In Great Thanksg DOWN CHRISTIANS BEFORE A LARGE HOLIDAY CROWD Andersonites Use Flashy At tack in Baffling Their Ancient Rivals. WILKIE HEAVES 50-Yd PASS Spectacular I'lay in Last Quarter Be. wilders Stands as Well as Coach Walker's Men. Displaying a fine lira ml of football, the Guilford team buttled its way to a 24 to win over their ancient rivals from Elon on Thanksgiving before a holiday crowd of some 2,500 people, in the Greensboro stadium. This, the 14th annual clash between the two was without doubt, one of the most colorful that either had ever participated in, not only on the field, but in the stands. Only in the ease of intense rivalry can such on thusism be manifested. The first quarter found neither goal line crossed, both teams playing heady, defensive ball. The second quarter found the ball in Eton's possession on its own 34-yard line. Newsome kirked a long one to Turner, who was downed on his own 20-yard lino. Turner, Nor man and Finch carried the ball for two first downs to (Juilford's 45-yard line. Turner then threw a pass to Newman who raced for a touchdown on a 55- yard gain. Later in the same quarter Norman caught, an Elon pass and was downed on his opponent's 40-yard stripe. Jnmie -8011 and Norman carried the ball to Elon's 25-yard line and a first down and then Norman, 011 a spin-play, crossed the goal line for Guilford's sec ond score. Near the last of the third quarter, Rosely, Guilford's left vnd, blocked a Christian punt on their 20-yard line. Turner then threw a pass to Newman for another score. The fourth quarter was by far the most thrilling. Elon received the kick on their 37-yard line and drove for three consecutive first, downs to G. C.'s six-yard line. Three line plunges car ried the ball to the Quaker one yard line. Newsonie took the ball on a cen ter rush and was met by 11 Guilford men on the two-foot line. Jamieson punted and then Elon fumbled on their own 30-yard marker, and the ball was recovered by Guilford. It was then that Guilford pulled the surprise play of the game—a combination double lat eral and forward pass play that was good for 70 yards and another score. Norman took the ball from center, passed it back over his naad to Turner who in turn passed \t to \Tilkie, G. C.'s left guard. Wilkie had taken Jamie son's place, at left half, while Jamieson replaced the end who went into Wil kie's guard position. "NVilkie threw a long 5.1-yard pass to Jamieson, who raced across the goal line. This play was one of the neatest, flashiest bit of football that the South has seen in many a day. Near the end of the last quarter the Elon team managed to score on a long drive through a Quaker team composed mostly of second and third string men.

Randolph Macon Robinson receives the nod over Lit tle, of Lienoir-Rhyiie, because of his great defensive playing as well as be ing an able pass receiver. He was one of the best, ends in the state the past season. Craver was the best tackle to op pose the Quakers this past season. He was always a tower of strength in the line. Mackey, at left guard for the Wasps, made life miserable for Anderson's Quakers and made taekle after tackle in Guilford's backfield. Smith, at center, was a groat defen sive man as well as a bear on the of fense. Guilford couldn't keep him out of a play. Meade, at right guard, was a towej of strength on a great team. He played an outstanding game against Guilford. Barnett, of Roanoke, at right tackle just couldn't be taken out by the Qua kers. whether on the offense or defense. Halligan, of William and Mary, was one of the outstanding ends of the country. His long punts and accurate QUAKES By Frank Allen The basketball season got under way with only three veterans reporting to Coach Anderson. Jamiesoa, Purnell and Milner are the letter men around whom the team will be built. Several meaibers of last year's seeond team are back, as well as a fair crop of first-year men. It is too early in the season to state just how the material 011 hand will shape up. The Quaker loopsters had counted oa Pastille and Schroflf, two letter men, to take care ot' the vacancies now exist ing, but as they did not return this fall other men will fill their positions. There is a possibility that Schroff will return the seeond semester and this will greatly strengthen the Quakers. Suits wore issued to Weston, New man, Dave Griffin, Ted Griffin, George Parker, Jack Norman, and Earl Mooney besides the letter men. Norman and Mooney are first-year men, hut have had lots of experience with crack high school teams. Other candidates reporting were Key nolds, Jones, Carroll, ('raver, Mackey Wisenfluh, Routon, Yenable, and \Vil 1 in ms. We notice that the Catawba paper loasts that the Indian team could beat a team picked from Guilford, Elon, High Point, Lenoir-Rhvne, and Appa lachian. Here's the team we think could trim Catawba: Rasely (Guilford), left end. ('raver (High Point, left tackle Wilkie (Guilford), left guard. Mooney (Guilford) center. Rurgwyn (Guilford), right guard. Stasovitch (lAnoir-Rhyne), right tackle. Little (Lenoir-Rhyne), right end. Jamieson (Guilford), quarterback. Newman (Guilford), left halfback. Newton (Lenoir-Rhvne), right half back. Poove.v (Lenoir-Rhyne), fullback. We make these selections for the fol lowing reasons: Rasely, Craver, Wilkie, Burgwyn, Stansovitch, and Little because of their consistent play throughout the season. We picked Mooney over Rudisill, for this particular team, because of his showing in the Catawba game; not be cause of a better seasonal record. The backfield selections were made to give us a line-plunger in Poove.v, two fine running backs in Newton and Jamicson and a good blocking back in Newman. tosses to Palese will never be forgot ten by the Quakers. He received hon orable mention on the Associated Press All-American. Hess was the fastest man that Qua kers played against. His selection of pla.vs was superb and in his return of punts he left nothing undone. Palese, at right halfback, would make any coach's heart beat with joy. He can catch passes, run with the pork-skin, and can really break up plays while on the defense. He received honorable mention for All-American, the same as his team-mate, Jlalligan. Kerr, of Langley Field, was a flashy broken-field runner as well as a great defensive man. De of Randolph-Macon, could kick them a mile, crack the line, and really back up his line on the defense. He was a real player who could do everything well. Among the freshman commandments published in the Utah Chronicle is: "Thou shalt not keep thyself in the presence of one woman; for it is not good."

GLANCING OVER THE FOOTBALL SEASON • lullford's 11(32 football season lins passed into history. The Quakers played tin games, losing seven and winning three. The first four games, Eniory-I lenry, Langley Field, Ran dolph Macon, and William and Mary were strong teams and Coach Ander son's charges expected a tough battle in each ease. The Roanoke game, though it was lost, was the point at which the (iuilforil squad started work ing together and showing the stuff they were capable of. At High Point the team came through with a victory. Catawlm and Lenoir Ithyne were conference leaders and neither game was a walkaway. E. C. T. \ was the Quaker's only push over.
