Drama Council Drops
"Outward Bound" and
Scouts Substitutes
"Alison's House," "Our Town"
Considered as Replacements
For Banned Production
As this issue of the Guilfobdian
goes to press Outward Hound has been
definitely rejected by the Dramatic
Council, the date of the council's fall
production has been variously changed
from November 25 to November 18, to
"some time ill December," and the
reading committee, composed of Kath
leen Leslie, Hazel Monsees, Arthur
Wolff and .Toe Crescenzo is consider
ing Thornton Wilder's Our Town and
Susan Glaspell's Alison's House to de
termine a successor to Outward Hound.
Twenty-four hours earlier the commit
tee was considering Spring Dance and
('rain's Wife for the same purpose.
Wreckage of the Dramatic Council's
plans to present Outward Hound came
unexpectedly this week when it was
learned that the permit for produc
tion had been withdrawn by the copy
right owners. As a consequence, re
hearsals were stopped and the reading
committee started work immediately
to uncover a new play.
The casting committee, composed of
Audrle Gardham, Polly Morton, Don
Wood and Elois Mitchell, lias stressed
the fact that the new play will be cast
very largely from among the students
who obtained roles in Outward Hound
No definite date has been set by
the council for final choice of the plays
under consideration, but tryouts and
rehearsals will be started immediately
after the selection is made.
Of the two plays under considera
tion, Alison's House, by Susan Glas
pell won the Pulitzer Prize play aware
in 1031 and offers dramatic possibilities
to a large number of people; Out
Town , by Thornton Wilder, appears t
a particular advantage at this tinit
since it requires no scenery and woulc
give the council time to concentrat
entirely on direction and developmen
of the players.

Quiz Reveals Popularity
Trend to Dirt and Sports
By T. IJAITEN and R. LESLIE
Where is intellectualism? Of nil the
features in the Guilfortlinn, "Daze of
lie Weak" nnd "Quaker Sports" nre
favored by our students.
How can the Guilßordinn be im
proved? Here nre unique suggestions
from nil corners of the campus:
Speed Hollowell: "I like the sports
page, being interested in sports. The
Suilfordinn's n good paper just as it
is."
Betty l'hil Edwards: "I like 'Daze
of the Weak' and the news articles.
Having worked 011 the Guilfordian, I
don't think it should come out more
often. I like it the way it is."
"Shorty" Heath: "I like the dirt
column nnd the sports page. As to im
provement, naturally you want more
of what you like. They ought to give
more space to Center section when they
win intra-inural basketball this year.
You know this is the fourth year in a
row, Old North."
Ed Gehrke: "I like the sports sec
tion best. Everything can be improved.
It ought to be larger, with more pic
tures."
lialph Deaton: "I usually look at
the headline first, then I read the rest.
The paper is excellent, especially when
you consider the conditions under
which the staff works."
Eileen Dornself: "I like sports and
the 'Daze of the Weak.' The Guil
fordian is 0.K."
Eleanor Clinchy: "I like sports and
the 'Daze of the Weak.' Since I've
seen only one copy, I couldn't say how
it can be improved."
Hoy Dnwklns: "I like the sports
page. There ought to be bigger pic
tures, more news."
Bea Fitzgerald: "I like the dirt col
umn and Foster's editorials. I can't
think of any improvements except Fos
ter."
Mary Louise Brown: "I like the
sports page. I haven't seen enough
of the Guilfordian to suggest improve
ments."
Koseninry Nunn : "I like the forecast
of the chapel schedule best. It pre
pares me for what's coining. I don't
Guilfordian Introduces
Use of New Type Heads
Instituting (lie first major change
in style and make-up ill the last
eight years of continual publication,
THE Gl ILFOKDIAN, with this is
sue, emerges in new headline type
and with an entirely new policy of
make-up. The new type, Krbar ISold
Condensed, is used predominantly
throughout this issue and will lie
used almost exclusively in (he issues
lo come. THE Gl ILFORDIAN will
use two different sizes of the type,
IK point and 24 point, and. by com
bining the two, will be able to for
mulaic nearly a half-dozen different
heads.
The head on this particular story
is sel in 18 point type. The number
1 stories on the top column of this
page are headed in 24 point type.
Variations in the use of these two
sizes are apparent throughout (he
issue.

THE GUILFORDIAN
think they should have continuations
on the back pages. They confuse the
reader."
Don Wood: "My favorite is 'Loose
Ends.' The front page suits me all
right but could cover more activities."
Charles Lewis: "I like the 'Daze'
column. How about printing movie
previews ?"
Hope Leslie: "I like the whole thing
and there could not be much improve
ment."
Anonymous: "What we need is more
editorial slams on the Woman's Stu
dent Government. Put some fire be
hind the women and they might change
some of their mildewing rules. I like
the 'Quakes'."
Charlotte Lewis: "I like it all too.
There should be more current events;
also, it should come out more often."
Audrie Gardham: "I look at the
front page first. Then I drift to the
dirt column and wind up on the sports
page. The paper's so good it can't be
improved."
Wilbert Edgerton: "First I study
the front page; next the 'Daze of the
Weak.' I think a few cartoons by
campus talent and maybe a crossword
puzzle."
Mary Caulfield: "1 read the 'Daze'
eagerly each two weeks. I wish it
came out more often and it could be
bigger."
Gene Elliot: "The editorial is to me
the best part of the paper. The front
page is well set up but it should in
clude more current world news."
Barbara Hamlin: "It's just human
nature to like the dirt column. I don't
think anyone ever reads the editorials.
I think the paper could stand more pic
tures."
Bob L. Wilson: "I read the smut
first. We need more or it. Also more
features. How about free tickets for
the students, as ads for the movie
houses?"
