GUILFORD COLLEGE, N. C., FEBRUARY 24, 1934
GUILFORDIAN MAKES
SURVEY OF RULES
IN OTHER SCHOOLS
Compares Social Restrictions
for Women at Guilford with
Those of Various Colleges.
A.C.C. IS MOST REGULATED
Lenoir-Rhyne and Greensboro College
Codes Also Taken Up; Point
Rules Under Reconstruction.
(This is the first of a series of
articles that will be run in the
Guilfordian on this subject.)
By RUTH FUQUAY
If you were to road the regulations
of A. C. C. you would not "wonder why
extra postage had to be paid to get
them out of the post-office. It is my
aim to contrast and compare the rules
and regulations of Lenoir Rhyne,
Greensboro College and A. C. C. in this
article. From the data that T have,
Lenoir-Rhyne seems to be more liberal,
but still firm enough on their rules.
High Point at this time is making a
readjustment.
The general regulations: At A. C. C.
dancing with young men and smoking
and card-playing are prohibited at all
times, and it is the duty of each girl
to see that her gues's do not smoke. I
see G. C. once prohibited dancing and
smoking, but they have put a cross
mark over it now, so I suppose it is
permissible.
Quiet Hours at A. C. C.
At A. C. during quiet hour women
may not call from one room to another,
cannot loiter in halls, cannot visit dur
ing evening study hours. Quiet hours,
from 8:00-12:30 noon; 1:00-4:00 p. m.;
7:00-9:45 p. m.; 10:30 p. m.-6:30 a. m.
on Saturday from 8 a. m.-12:30; 11
p. m. 8 p. m. on Sunday before 8
a. in. During chapel, concerts, lectures,
V. M. O. A. and Y. W. 0. A. services
quiet hour.
A quiet observance of Sunday is ex
pected. At G. C. callers are not re
ceived during quiet hour, from 2-4
o'clock p. m. A student must be in her
own room during quiet hour. At
A. C. C. guests are entertained only on
Saturday and Sunday nights and
must obtain permission well in advance
of the occasion.
General Social Regulations
At A. C. C. only the student parlors,
porch and Lee street and Whitehead
avenue sides of the campus shall be
used in daily social hour, from 5 to 6
(Continued on Page Four)
Austrian Crisis
Most Significant
The two European History 4
classes have rated the recent Aus
trian crisis as the most important
event in world history that has oc
curred in the past two weeks. This
was brought to a head when civil
war broke out in Vienna between
the Austrian Nazis and Chancellor
Dollfus of Austria.
The classes have rated the riots,
which broke out in France in con
nection with the Btavisky scandal,
and the resulting changes in govern
ment as the second most important
happening in the past two weeks.
Another event, pomewhat differ
ent from those already cited, but of
almost as much importance, is the
treaty between four Balkan states—
Rumania, Greece, Turkey, and Jugo
slavia, guaranteeing frontiers and
agreeing to arbitration of disputes.

CAMPUS ALMOST A
SCENE OF EPIDEMIC
Mrs. Powell Reports Fifteen
Students 111 at the
Present Time.
COLD IS COMMON AILMENT
A grand, or perhaps not so grand,
total of la students have been sick dur
ing the past week.
The most popular form of sickness
is tonsilitis, according to the records.
Those who suffered from tonsilitis are
George Silver, Dorothy Sturdivant,
Helen Lowe, Harry Brown, Charles
Dorsett, Adelaide Tucker, Rachel Per
kins, Charles McKinsey, Howard Wooley
and Edna Johnson. All of these are
either greatly improved or are up.
Running a slow record to tonsilitis
is bronchitis. Martha Lane and Eliza
beth Alexander are the sufferers.
Rose Askew is the sole, proud pos
sessor of tracheatis, of which she is
justly proud.
The usually popular appendicitis
claims only one victim, Mary Alma
Coletraine, and according to Miss Pow
ell, the nurse, Mary Alma's ease is a
slight one.
Basketball has only one injury
marked up against it at the present
time. Ed McManus is the unfortunate
one. Coach Anderson states that the
unusual, weather, with consequent colds,
has weakened the basketball team con
siderably.
COLLECT HISTORICAL
DATA FOR GOVERNMENT
For the past week Mr. O. B. Barber,
of Greensboro, has been working here
in the library, getting historical data
on the battle of the Guilford court
house and other events that occurred
at this period of the Eevolution.
Mr. Barber has been sent here by the
federal historical commission on mili
tary events and this work that he is
doing is in direct conjunction with the
governmental project for the develop
ment of the historical significance of
the battle of Guilford Courthouse that
is now under way.
