I was impressed with the cleanliness and newness of the in firmary, but most of all my grati tude was extended to Ruth Sim son, our new nurse. Last year, when I was in Ver mont, I became acquainted with the Nurses Training Program at the University of Vermont and learned of the rigorous course of study they are confronted with.

This uncalled-for incident occurs repeatedly before athletic contests concerning ourselves and Elon. This editorial is being writ ten with the belief that this child ish incident can be and should be avoided in the future. This annual exchange of paint stems no doubt from the increas ing rivalry between ourselves and Elon. Rivalries make any type of contest more interesting, but w c are ot the opinion that this rivalry is getting out of hand. It has been suggested that we make an agree ment with Elon to the effect that the first school to damage property of the other will automatically for feit the contest in question. This brings up the problem of claims r.'iat students are painting then own buildings in order to increase ill tcejiiigs. Somd evidence sooms to point to the fact that some of our own Guilford students may be to blame for the painting we received a couple of weeks ago. If these displays of juvenile be havior don't come to an abrupt halt, how can we expect to be con sidered old enought to have a part in the planning of school policies concerning us? All of these things must be taken into consideration, and we hope after considering, you 'will decide to do all you can to remedy this situation. Guilford's "Angel Of Mercy" The realization of the struggle a student nurse must go through to succeed gave me a deep sense of appreciation for our own nurse, luth Simpson. Guilford College is indoed for tunate to have a nurse such as Ruli Simpson; young enough to under al stand the physical and psycho - logical problems of the students in relation to her field, and yet mature enough to give confidence to her patients and bring honor upon her profession. During my short period of confinement, T THE GUILFORDIAN SENIOR SPOTLIGHT SUE CHURCH Brown eyes, black hair, a sweet smile . . . these are features of our senior girl of the week - - - Sue Church, the former Sue Genz of Tuckahoe, N. Y. Sue has made quite a name for herself at Guilford during her three and a half years here. Her freshman year she was elected to the Homecoming Court, and the next year she reigned as Home coming Queen. Apparently Sue is good at handling money, for she served as treasurer of her fresh man and junior classes. Also, she was secretary of the S. C. A. two years ago and has been active in the W. A. A. as modern dance chairman. This year Sue is a mem ber of the F. T. A. and has been further honored by election to Who's Who Among Students in American Colleges and Universi ties. Last year between semesters Sue was married to the first Guilford boy she dated her freshman year—- John Church, of Walkertown, N. C. Sue attended summer school this past summer and hopes to gradu ate in January. A primary educa ion major, she plans to teach wherever she and John make their home possibly Vermont. Of the numerous things Sue likes about Guilford she says she likes best the way the students get to know their professors as in dividuals, not just as teachers. was impressed with the systematic and efficient manner with which she carried out her duties. Men tion should also be made of her charming personality and her at titude of helpfulness towards her patients. I hope we don't apply "the straw that broke the camel's back" to Miss Simpson, so that she will always continue to serve us in the same manner as she is doing now. We should all appreciate her work and humble contribution to Guil ford College. DECEMBER 2, 1955 ANDY CONNOR Andy Connor, a student at Guil lord tor the past four years, has one of the most exciting histories of any Guilford student. In this weeks Senior Spotlight, we are given a chance to bring Andy's colorful personality and activities to the fore. Although Andy's hometown is Lansdowne, Pennsylvania, he spent the greater part of his life in New Jersey. Before coming to Guilford College, Andy spent four years in the United States Army Signal Corps; two of those years were spent in Japan. With Physics for a major and Mathmetics and Chemistry for his minor, Andy is kept pretty busy with schoolwork. However, he has found time to serve on the Men's Student Government during his sophomore year, be an active member of the Physics Club for the past two years, and serve on the Budget Committee of the Stu dent Affairs Board for this year. The time he has left from his studies and all of these extra curricular activities, Andy devotes to hunting and flying. Andy's plans for the future in clude applying to various graduate schools for assistantships in Physies. He is married to former Guilford student, Ruby Sharp, who graduated in 1953. At present, she is teaching English at Sum merfield High School. Goo'l luck to this wonderful Guilford College "ouple.
