Page Four FIRST FRESHMAN GRADES * SHOW BUDDING GENIUSES *— i Average Standing of Freshman Ratings . Is Higher This Year Than in Former Years. DEANS EXPRESS SATISFACTION Reports of the freshman grades of ' this school year show the girls of the freshman class to be slightly above average. Out of 51 girls, 28 have I average grades or better, six have B average, two have all it's, four made all A's and B's, and one made honor roll grades. There were very few failures. Very little information could lie ob tained concerning the boys. Only one boy made all A's. According to Mrs. Milner, there is a smaller group in both the extremes, A and F rating, this year than last, but the general average is higher this year. • Both Dean Beittel and Mrs. Milner ex pressed satisfaction with tills prelimi nary showing. Raleigh Reviews Kaleidoscope Of Twenty Years on Campus (Continued from Page One) Wes came to Guilford in 191!) when Dr. liobbs was president. The only members of the present faculty who were around then are Dr. Binford, who was to become president soon af terwards, anil professor I'ancoast, who arrived that year and immedi J ately become popular at Founders'. Wes holds that the student body, es pecially that upper-class clique that hangs out at Cox Hall, has become more and more "civilized" since his arrival. No longer do the boys pitch beds from third story windows; they now demolish them in their rooms. What with this religious dissection and fixing stuff, a fellow must have some relaxation; so Wes Raleigh bets a little oil the side. As lias been men tioned, Wes won a Coca-Cola on the world series by picking the Yanks, but humanitarian that he is. lie pulled for the Cubs even at the risk (he emphasizes this) of losing the Coca- Cola. Wes says lie used to bet on our football team, but since the depres sion he has felt that charity Is a worthier cause. Even a sympathetic inquiry, how ever, could not long detain Wes: but j before lie hurried off to "prop up n wobbly wash tub" lie attempted to define his official position. "Well," he said, "I'm the man who does the work for the man who takes care of the place." Oh, yes, Wes Raleigh is soliciting contributions for a new boiler, (he says). Your pittance will be most welcome. "Am I the first girl you ever kissed?" "Now that you mention it. you do look familiar."— Tropolltan. Compliments j t ! W. V. Moran t Manager F. W.

BETIIEA, Manager j THE GUILFORDIAN THIS COLLEGIATE WORLD Collegians have always been quick to grasp new social and i>oliticnl movements (in a left-handed way) ever since the days of soldiers' bonus, and now come the collegiate Califor nians with a new youth bonus move ment. To point the finger of ridicule nt the "S3O Every Thursday" plan being promoted as a bonus for those over 50. University of California at Los Angeles students have organized a new club to give SSO every Friday to folks under i0. Mere nre the two more-than-logical campaign arguments j for the new movement: 1. Younger people (0 to 50) have occasion to spend more money than older people. 2. The pension would give those I | waiting to become 50 something to do. i 3. To give pensions to everybody j is more democratic. 1 Yes. this collegiate world always keeps up with the times—in fact, is j | 'way ahead of it. * | To further prove the ingenuity of j those who inhabit this collegiate world. ! jwe give you the up-and-coming Uni , ! versit.v of Rochester freshmen who j have a new method of iireaking-in ! smoking pipes. Here's the new idea : Fill and light your pipe in the usual manner, put stem of lighted pipe on a suction tube —and presto, your pipe is broken fn. But be careful, for the plan's origina tors warn that too steady application of the suction tube will rapidly burn out the pipe altogether. A. C.

CANADA SPEAKS Editor of the Guilfordian, Dear Sir: Once when Americans thought of Canada it brought to mind thoughts of snow and mountains. Ashing, hunt ing and vacationing. In these modern days it seems as though they always think immediately of quintuplets and baby marathons. (I hope to see the day when 1 will deserve the title of "only Canadian never to have seen the brats.") Although I don't wish to disparage the j achievement of Papa Dionne, there are other things in Canada besides | quintuplets and Imby marathons, and furthermore, all male Canadians are not papas. (Y.W'.C.A. script writer please take note.) I couldn't help feeling sorry for ! the poor Canadians in chapel last week—imagine not having any free ! speech because of a horrid padlock | law. The fact is, if the young lady had only known, that is a local law TATUM'S I | Special i t HOT STEAK SANDWICHES f I 15c t t 720 W. Market Dial 2-1101 { f r i WILLS Book and Stationery Co.
