October 24, 1942 QUAKES BIJ HERB SCHOELLKOPP, JR. and TALMADGE NEECE . With the football season just about | half past, at this writing, we find the i score three-love. But, today it prob- j ably is a lot different story with the i count three to ONE, and that ONE l meaning everything in the world to i our coach and boys. However, if it • is not, you and I know doggone well j our team did their very darndest . . . Here's a toast to Captains Knobby Blair and Tuscon Maynard who have been setting some darn good examples by their fine playing and spirit .... and to "Mole" Newell, a pretty sharp hipper dipper, who can toss the skin as good as those pros we saw the ether day . . . not forgetting the .Toe's, "Big and Little," King Johns, "Mighty" Snipes, "Butch" Wilson and others who have been doing a swell job. O Kemeinber Emory and Henry . . . it's a well known fact that three or more of their small, gentle fellows played a couple of years at King college when King college beat Catawba . . . and we're sure Catawba's 110 cinch. O The Carolina I're-Flighters, who, with their hard but clean playing, real ly out-classed us, are considered by our team as one of the best all-around bunch of fellows we've played. The height of their courtesy was shown by the presentation of the winning foot ball to our captain, Knobby Blair, by their captain. O I hear that the battle of the century took place the other night in King 1. If you don't get it . . . just ask Gen eralissimo Snipes.

Daring Donors Play Leads In Drama Of Bloody Chills (Continued from Page One) late yourself under your own power, j and start pacing the floor Just to prove it. Ah-hn, and now in true Napoleonic fashion you watch your friend upon the cot. She, being a biology major, is intensely interested in each move ment. The needle is in, and the blood spurts forth like a high-powered faucet •—up to a third of a pint now, then drip! The steady stream lias run dry. The doctor probes the vein, while the "scientist" unflinchingly observes. A few more drops, then utter dryness! Your healthy looking friend doesn't have your large veins, and then you begin to realize that, the doctor's com pliment to you, "You're an ideal donor," was not addressed to all the girls. Your disappointed friend looks disgustedly at her small veins, while you console her with the remark, "We can't all be donors." But she will try again; two more thirds make a pint. And with whole hearted resolutions to submit to the "ordeal" again in three months, it's off to the Lotus we go for a chow mein pickup! I Many fellow citizens around campus were very, very disappointed that there I wasn't even a sniff of a pep rally be- I fore the Homecoming game It adds | quite a lot to have a bon lire and a , rousing pep rally, and all know that this campus is not over-running with ' the old college spirit ... so whatta I you say .. . let's liven up a bit!!!! O Somebody asked one afternoon as the cross-country team was practicing if they had been swallowed up in the ! burial ground. 'Tis true . . . we've ' not been seeing much of them here-of late. O Did you hear about a certain "vick ed," big guard from Bawston, who re marked late in last week's freshman game, "Cheez, we shoulda scored in | the first inning." , O High l'oint is still the big game of the season, Coach still says that if lie 1 couldn't block any better than that, "I'd go stick my head in a bucket of . . . ~" Catawba is the power in 1 the conference, the draft hangs over every head like the proverbial sword — ' even Coach is subject to call at al- 1 most any time, Coach is married, Elon : and Lenoir Khyne have dropped out of the conference, and Conch Lentz isn't iiack. If was a great day when Coaeli Lentz 1 visited the campus. He is still the j same "Killer," 110 uniform or any amount of stripes could change this swell guy. Hats off to a real leather neck. O Add Coach's pet names for his wife: "Tonto" and "Battleax."

THE GUILFORDIAN EMMERT QUAKER SCORER i Coach Parsons Organizes Men's Tennis Tournament Coach Parsons awl Captain Ben Brown have arranged a tennis tourna ment for all interested enthusiasts among the men's student body. The tournament is still in its earlier stages. I)an Young became the first entrant to reach the third round when he de feated Ben Brown by a score of 6-4, 6-2. Brown, Herb Pearson and Ernest Ferris are among the few returning mainstays from lust year. There is a good chance for freshmen who make a good showing to make the varsity team. I Enlisted Reserve Corps , Prepares Boys For Service (Continued from Page One) he must be capable of calculating cer tain mathematical problems, have a basic familiarity with solne exact sci ence, anil finally, he must be able to care for himself under all conditions. Although no academic training has been specified, the Army and Navy have prescribed certain physical educa tion requirements. A minimum of four lor five hours a week of physical train ing is necessary in order to keep fit. The men are also required to run an Obstacle course and drill at any un -1 announced moment. I The Reserve program, unlike the Re serve Officers' Training Corps, does not necessarily prepare a man for an offi cer's rating, although a standard con sistently above average may enable him to secure a commission upon gradua tion. An enlistment in the Reserve Corps immediately removes a man front the jurisdiction of his local draft board. The corps reserves the right to put any man on active duty on 24 hours notice. I This calling t" duty can be the result lof several conditions. Should the stu dent fail any subject, leave school, or I should the war situation become more serious, the reservist will immediately [see action as an enlisted man. A cotn jlH-titive examination is given to each corps member during his second school year. The requirements of this test must be met if the student wishes to i remain at school. At Guilford college, this program plays a major part. Twenty-five per cent of the male student body is enlist ed in some branch of the reserve ser vice: Bill Byatt. George Bunco, Sam I Price, Stuart Maynard. Knobby Blair, I I Kingston Johns. Herb Schnellkopf, Mar- j ion Kails, I'urnell Kennedy. Rudy I)a-j vis. Ben Brown. John Downing.

The V-1 plan of the Navy prob- i ably appeals to most boys. I'nder V-1. j jtlie government provides that 80,000 boys between 17 and 20 in their fresh- ' man and sophomore years at an ac- I credited college, pass a physical exam- \ ination. These men are guaranteed j two more years of college education after being sworn into V-1. The young reservist is then eligible to become an officer candidate in V-7. Besides V-1 and V-7, there are numerous other branches and departments from which one can make his choice.

The entire Guilford forward wall crashed through the Greensboro line and blocked the punt. Lockwood !, Emmert scooped up the ball on the Greensboro 35 and raced down the field for the first Quaker score of the season. Ilis kick for extra point was good. e But the visitors had already broken . the scoring ice in the first period. Catch- I ing the freshmen off guard, the full back raced around his own right end a full SO yards for the opening score of the game. The try for extra point was wild. After Emniert's score early in the second period the Quakers held the • upper hand until the last four minutes 1 of the game. Guilford's strong forward line had the Whirlies on their own 10- yard line where they had been pushed i by Emniert's fine coffin-corner kick. The visitors punted out to the Qua . kers 35 where Lonnie Albright tried ; to get the ball, touched it but failed to 1 get his hands on it, and Greensboro downed the ball on the Quaker 30. In six plays the Whirlies pushed across another score lint the try for extra point was blocked. As the game ended another of Emniert's well-placed punts had the Greensboro eleven backed up on their own three-yard line. In their opening game the freshman team was defeated 6-0 by the same Greensboro Iligh reserves.
