April IS, 1942 l|t QUAKES By CARRUTHERS and TAYLOR George Fen-el, who played baseball here at Guilford In the good old days when Guilford was at times conference champion, worked out with the Quaker nine for two weeks before spring vaca tion. Ferrel now has his own club in organized ball, and ho brought some of his players along to get in shape, also. Roger Smith, a member of last tail's freshman class, was in the group. • I'aul "Cherry Pie" Chambers, class of '3B, gave up his coaching job at Asheboro high for a place in Uncle Sam's Navy in March. One of Guil ford's best athletes of the last few years, he has produced some fine teams in his two years' work at Asheboro. • It seems that the main reason for the track team's loss to Catawba was that there weren't enough entrants for each event. The two teams tied in the number of first places that they won, but Catawba walked away with most of the second and third places due to the fact that they usually had about twice as many entrants in each event (TF) ATHLETTES (7T) By FRAN and PETE V_>L/ We returned from spring vacation to discover joyfully, nice white lines on newly rolled tennis courts and gener ally fair weather, all of which-invited us to play tennis. So we did—once, in Phys. Ed. class! But what we want to point out is: better practice up, be cause the spring tennis tournament (singles and doubles) starts next week, and a lot of you should sign up to make it a better tournament than the one last fall. O AVhile we were still pleased over the tennis court* we were told May day was hovering in the near future, so we could all start learning dances with which to entertain the queen (May queen) and her court, and other interested spectators. May day is Saturday, May I>, at 4 o'clock. If we're lucky it will be outside; how about saying a little prayer for sunshine 011 that day? O Speaking of dancing, the modern dance club will meet a few more times, but the members will not have a sepa rate dance in May (lay this year. Don't all rejoice at once —it may cause too much commotion! O Softball practice starts next week, if you have any extra time, what with theses, term papers, and sun baths so prominent these days. Practice will be on the hockey Held at -t :45 p.m. on Wed nesdays and Fridays. There will lie a class tournament, so come on out and give the ball a sock or two. O Archery has nlso come to life again in the warm spring weather under man ager Miss Mildred Lenora Itagan (15- minute liagan to some, since the choir trip). You can get points toward your letter and numerals from archery, we hasten to remind you. O Now that the bicycle has come into its own at Guilford —what with all the Always Welcome We Appreciate Your Patronage Pleasants MERCANTILE CO. as Guilford. There's still plenty of time, so come 011 out and help the team, fellows. "Lefty" T.iske, of Catawba, really stole the march on this year's baseball season by pitching the first no-hitter of the 1042 season. The horse-shoe tournament will get under way next week according to Coach Smith. There are about 30 boys signed up to participate in the play and there should be some stiff compe tition.

A. cabinet met to put into effect a new point system for the cyclists. Just peddle a bike around for 15 hours and you will end up with 25 points. Nice, eh, what? O The new and old W. A. A. cabinets met last week for the purpose of bring ing in the new members and officers, and bidding farewell to the old ones. Mary Anna Jessup made her little re tiring speech and Frances Neece fol lowed her up with her coming-in speech. Miss Foster told a little about the theme of this year's May day, and then re freshments were served by Tjouly Staf ford and Martha Ann Abelein. We won't say how many times they were served, but they certainly were good. Good luck to the new cabinets and we hope you have a swell year. O Hiding class comes last but not least in this column. It meets every Tues day. and apparently is quite popular with the Athlettes because there are 12 girls signed up for a date with their favorite horse 011 these days. A sales tax is bad at all times and never would be worse than now, in the opinion of Dr. Clarence E. Ay res, Uni versity of Texas professor of economics. THE GUILFORDIAN / .

(indermen Defeated In Initial Encounter Quakers Win Seven First Places But Drop Field Events and Second Spots Guilford's trackmen meet their sec ond foe of the season when they travel to High I'oint this afternoon. With a week of good practice under their belts since their defeat at the hands of Catawba on the tenth, the team should he much more successful this afternoon. The Quaker tenm really made a fine showing when they tied Catawba in the number of first places taken at seven each. Graceful Laceile Cockman surprised everyone when he literally ran away with the two-mile event. lie finished a good hundred yards ahead of the field. Walter Kucker placed first in tiie 1(K) yard dash and the -20 yard dash, and DeArmas Smith also had a good day, for he took blue ribbons in both the low and high hurdles. Schoell kopf raced to first place in the 880 yard run and Hank Ausband took honors in the pole vault event. Bill Hyatt, Brad Leete, and .T. W. McGinnis each took a second or third place. This gave Guilford a score of 47, while Catawba had racked up a total of 79 points to win the meet. The Catawba men made their extra points in the Held events and by winning most of the second and third places. High Point comes here on the 27th to return today's meet.

The game proved to be a pitchers' battle all the way. Parker, who hurled for the Quakers, limited the Elon team to a minimum of hits and struck out 0 batters. He then went to bat for his own game with a homer in the seventh inning, the longest ever seen in the Elon park. In the second game of the season Lenior Ithyne combined plenty of hits with some few Quaker errors to pile up a one-sided score, 15-3. Nolan pitch ed a good game but ho proved to be slightly wild at times and walked sev eral men. The team met Catawba in another tight pitching duel on Tuesday after noon. I'arker took pitching honors with 12 strike-outs. But the superior fielding work done by the Catawba infield and six strike-outs by Molly Craft held the Quakers to only two hits and no runs. The Catawba team combined seven hits for as many runs and the game ended 7-0 for Guilford's third loss of the season. The highlight of the game was a bril liant triple play. Parker caught Peel er's pop fly and threw the ball to Frye at first who relayed to Lindley at sec ond. Two Catawba men were caught off base and the side was retired. Mackie Frye has proved the most consistent hitter thus far with a two bagger each game. Shakespeare In the Raw; Gory Details of Rehearsal (Continued from l'age One) By that time you are back on the stage and everything has quieted down. But now that's bad, because this is the scene you don't know so well. Of course, now Dr. Furnas can hear all your lines. But you finally bluff your way through—either by walking around and ending up near the prompter, or by keeping your book beside you and referring to it. when no one is looking —you hope. Then comes the last scene when Elois—but that's a secret. Come and see what happens to Elois Mitch ell! (Plug.) "Dear me, a quarter to ten," sighs Dr. Furnas. At that point you never think we have time to do the last act, but it seems we always do. When it's all over with at last, you stumble homeward over the flagstones.
