February 28, 1942 IP QUAKES B, J CARRUTHERS and TAYLOR Monday night tlie Quaker basketball | team plnyed its last game in the local gym with a great light against a super-, ior Elon five. Jack Hartley and Larry \ llenglietti were standouts in their final j home game. "Moe" Inman, always a steady player, just about stole the show. In fact, the whole team gave a brilliant performance. We might add that we have seen no other player improve as much this year as Herb Schoellkopf. Herb started the season as a substitute, but really began to J shine about mid-season. Hats off to you, Herb! The North State Conference tourna ment got underway Thursday at High Point college and the finals will be j played tonight. Guilford played Ca- j tawba Thursday afternoon, but this j article was sent in before this time j M ATHLETTES fiy FRAN and PETE We are still playing basketball, anl are now having the class tournament, a round robin among freshmen, sopho mores, juniors and seniors. We went to practice last week, and after a lit tle confusion we all elected captains. The freshmen picked Judy Nelson; sophomores, Mary Belle Clark; juniors chose Jnne McCulloch, and Mary Anna Jessup leads the seniors on to another of their well-known victories they hope. We've had two practices, so we know all the plays and everything—except those of us who take modern dance in stead of basketball in phys. ed. We feel sort of lost—because of being aw fully sore in the funniest places. We hope you'll all come out and see the class games, so here's the schedule: February 25—Fresh, vs. soph. February 27—Juniors vs. seniors. March 4—Seniors vs. soph. March 6—Fresh, vs. juniors. March 9—Fresh, vs. seniors. March 11—Soph. vs. juniors. All games state at 4:45 p.m., so come on time and get a good seat. By the way. last but not least, in the dormitory tournament, Grumpy "trailed" Dot Jessup into the linals, but Dot got away and won the tour nament by a score of 14-8. A consola tion tournament was also played for the unfortunates who lost in the first round. Mary Belle Clark's team won over the Binfords. (Score 23-21.) O We would like to remind all the mem bers of the W. A. A. to think of the peo ple they WM nt to become the new mem liers of the W. A. A„ before the next meeting, when nominations will be made for the officers for l lie coming year. O The badminton tournament is pro gressing by degrees. It was held up by I'ettijohn and Grace Adriance, who have both been ill for some time. It will resume play in the near future, and may we extend our kindest invi tations to "Sweetpea" to come over and enjoy the game and refreshments (be ing water). She has been our only audience so far. Our many thanks to Always Welcome We Appreciate Your Patronage Pleasants MERCANTILE CO.

No college seems to be without an siliiiiini letter box. Recently an alarmed protest against the fallen standards j mid morals of Guilford was received from the Beverend Laurence Archibald Menghetti. He deplores the fact that lie saw the awful spectacle of a boy j and girl, students of Guilford College, holding hands —in broad daylight too. j Also, lie declares something must be j done with the boys who have dates with girls in the community after !• ; o'clock. It remains to be seen what t : restrictions will be placed on the stu- \ | dents in answer to the Reverend Men- j • ( ghetti's rebuke and in an effort to raise | ; j the standards of Guilford to their | J previous level. i Now, if we look around at Guilfor-1 ! dians everywhere, we're likely to learn i | some interesting facts.
