Page Four SHORT HOPS ...By KERR Four weeks to go . . . what a long •way from the four years to go which stared us in the face in 10-4(5. And how many dams have passed over the water since then . . . look back on 'the 1047 yearbook and check the freshman class . . . not many left, are there? The mortality rate at Guilford is higher than the present cost of dying. (You don't think the cost of dying is going up? Try it.) But we digress . . . later we'll discuss these four years as we've seen them, but for now, as the motto of the College Fertilizing Company says, "Let us cover ground." It's been great, i mean they've gotten the chapel out of Chapel program and have actually been saturating us with a maximum of entertainment and a minimum of culture. It simply goes to show that a good speaker, (I'm thinking of Nate Greene's good friend from Salem.) can convey a message and entertain all on the same program. Too many of our speakers have the message nnd not too much to go with it. The barn door's open . . . and there won't be too much point in locking it after the damage is done. By that we simply mean that if a trustee handed us $5,000 with the requirement that it be used for the good of the school, then we promise that there would lie a fire escape on the rear of Mary Hobbs—hall, that is. (If any was left over we'd get rid of the remainder of the flag stones along the walks.) Which brings to miiul ... wouldn't it be nice to have a flag pole in the center of the small cir cle? Lenoir Bhyne has one . . . we know 'cause we climbed it one chilly night in '47 to snatch an anti-Gutlford banner. And our usual chuckle . . . about the two ministers who were sitting on the park bench discussing sects. A cultural note . . . Walter Smith, Jr., New York, will speak tonight in the Archdale Hall guest room to Young Republicans Elect President Complete reorganization of the Young Republican Club took place Tuesday, April 18, when the politi cal-minded group held its first elec tions. Those elected to strategic of fices were Roiiert Garner, rising sen ior ,as president, and Charles Jus tin as vice-president. Others named were Sally Haire as secretary and Joe Marini as treasurer.

McEntire gave a talk on the evolution of the emancipation of women and the status of females in the modern business world. Her talk was backed up by factual statistics". She brought out the fact that sixteen million women are gain fully employed today, an increase of eleven million since the turn of the century. She also said that the Quakers were indirectly responsible for the beginning of the Emancipa tion of Women movement. Mrs. McEntire cited examples of numerous women who are today suc cessful business executives.

News By Marjorie Jardine Both old and new cabinet mem bers camped at the Woman's College Lodge for the weekend of April 1 to discuss plans for May Day and next year. Upon departure from Guilford it was obvious that this was to lie a hilarious weekend for all. The un lucky people who had the "misfor tune" to ride wiith Coach Lent/, found it necessary to push his "ma chine" in order to even get to camp. Immediately upon arrival seven girls attempted to embark in a single stolen canoe (with no paddles!) Andy Anderson was in first and by some "unintentional" mishap she floated away alone. Supper time came and all the girls were famished until they learned that the cooks were Lucy Leake anl Margie Jardine. Betty Brockman and Marty Hoops offered us splen did entertainment. Then everyone joined in a game which Polly ex plained as "Whosirmesir?" Bedtime rolled by, but only three unwise early birds sacked up, for at 2 a.m. they were awakened to the squawks and screams of the oth er fourteen. "Hutch" had shoved them all off to bed like a "mother hen" so she could sleep on the couch by tile nice warm fire. After hiding under five or six blankets apiece the racket subsided as the clock neared three. As six the next morning the break fast cooks arose and made enough noise to partially awaken the rest of the party. Breakfast was eaten between shivers, followed by a volley ball game. The morning worship was conducted to the tune of Broek ie's "yuke." Everyone arrived home safe Sun day afternoon, and between volley ball, sunbaths, singing and jokes, three business meetings had been held and business was discussed and many plans made. • DICK'S BARBER SHOP Now Open for Your Convenience Located over the Drug Store in the new Talbert Building • 41 SEBURN'S, Inc.
