ARRANGEMENT OF BOOKS
CHANGED IN LIBRARY
AH Literature and History Rooks Are
Placed in Reading Room at
Recommendation of Architect.
Extensive changes liave been made
in the arrangement of hooks in the
library, according to librarian Kath
arine \ Kicks, the chief among these
being the placement of all literature
and history in the reading room. This
step, recommended by the arehteet for
the college, Alfred Mussel I \ Jr., (lin
ing his visit to the campus last year,
was made possible by the recent receipt
of bio new book shelves, relieving the
serious shortage of shelf space. The
removal of the literature and history
books to the front library is oxpee.cd
greatly to facilitate the use of them,
since the time spent in obtaining books
is reduced to a minimum.
Hound periodicals formerly placed in
the reading room, and all Quaker liter
ature has been collected in ;he upper
port inn of the stacks vacated by the
history and literatim books.

NUMBER 2
ICEBOUND SELECTED
FOR FALL PLAY
OF DRAMA GROUP
Owen Davis Play Revived—For
merly Presented by Coun
cil in 1928.
WAS PREVIOUSLY PRAISED
Rural Setting Featured in Depiction of
Money-Mad Family; Will is
Storm Center.
Guilford stage artists arc again spec
ulating over the possibilities of becom
ing part of the dramatis pcrsonae,
since Professor Philip W. Furnas, di
rector of dramatics, last week announc
ed Owen Davis' play, "Icebound," as
the fall production of the Dramatic
council. The drama will be presented
on the night of November 7 at a part
of the centennial home-coming cele
bration.
The popular reception accorded "Ice
bound" when it was first presented at
Guilford eight years ago is considered
by the council as sufficient to warrant
its revival. The play, although funda
mentally a drama, might also be con
sidered a comedy in many ways, ac
cording to Professor Furnas.
A rural setting is the background for
a plot woven intricately about the ego
centric interests of a selfish family,
the members of which arc sadly disap
pointed to find that the wealthy matri
arch, who dies early in the action of
flic play, has left the bulk of her estate
to one of the household servants. The
balance of the play deals with the heir
ess' management of the estate and her
attempts to regenerate the ne'er-do-well
youngest son of the family.
Among those who are being consid
ered as members of the cast are Sam
Smith, Jack Lindley, .1. IJ. Jones, Doro
thy Woodward, Mary Priscilla Bloucli,
Beatrice Rolir, Emily Cleaver, Sybil
Barrow, James Parsons, George Wilson,
Milton Anderson, Martha Sharpe, Re
becca Weant, Ruth Stilson, Jean Blan
ch.ard, Esther Stilson, and Tom I 101 l is.
