Student Government Active in
Guilford's Campus Affairs
M.S.G. Announces
Accomplishments
Recently, M.S.G. has managed
the return of the pay phone to Old
South. The Men's Student Govern
ment was partially successful in
collecting money owed the tele
phone company by the students.
The deficit was made up from the
M.S.G. treasury.
The length of time that the
telephone will remain depends
entirely upon the manner in which
it is used.
A big accomplishment of the
M.S.G. has been the acquisition of
a Juke Box, which we now have in
the Student Union. This Juke Box
Tquired a great deal of hard work,
Hnd lengthy discussion before it
was finally approved as an addition
to the Student Union. This is some
thing that we have all wanted for
a long time, and it should provide
a great deal of enjoyment.
Due to numerous reports and
rumors received by faculty mem
bers, the M.S.G. has been asked
to submit information concerning
the behavior and conduct of men
students. This investigation may
prove to be quite embarrassing.
Several new by-laws and amend
ments have been drawn up and will
be inserted into the Constitution
to cover existing "loop holes." In
order to build up the strength of
the M.S.G. body, compulsory at
tendance of meetings has been
agreed upon. In the event a mem
ber is unable to attend a meeting,
his standing alternate will attend.

"W.S.G. and M.S.G.
Hold Joint Meeting
The Women's and Men's Student
Governments met on Monday, 21
of January, in a joint session to dis
cuss the installation of a juke box
in the Student Union. Several
members of the faculty who were
concerned in the issue were
present. A discussion of the prob
lems and details of the juke box
took place for over an hour; then
the two student governments
showed by a vote that each was
solidly behind the idea. It was
recommended by the two presi
dents, Anne Rae Thomas and Roger
Redman, that a group be appointed
to discuss the matter with a com
mittee chosen by Dr. Milner. Such
a group was chosen, and the meet
ing was adjourned. Action was
taken on the matter and now there
is a juke box in the Student Union.
This makes available to the stu
dents a large variety of music, and
helps improve the atmosphere of
informality so necessary to the suc
cess of such an institution as the
Student Union.

Rev, Glasse Speaks on "What Does My
Religion Have to Do with My Job?"
The program which affected
most of the students in the events
of the Religious Emphasis Week
was the chapel on Tuesday morn
ing. Rev. James Glasse was the
guest speaker. Since the theme of
the Religious Emphasis Week was
"Religion's relation to my vocation,"
therefore it was very appropriate
that Rev. Glasse spoke on "What
Does My Religion Have to Do with
My Job?"
Rev. Glasse is a member of the
faculty in the Divinity School of
Vanderbilt University. He attended

Religion in Your Vocation
"Link in the Chain,"
Film for R. E. Week
What is the "wealth" in a
teacher's life? The answer was por
trayed in the motion picture, Link
in the Chain, which was shown to
both the Freshman and Upper
classman Chapel during Religious
Emphasis Week.
James Cagney, the star of the
movie, portrays a college professor
who has reached retirement age.
Minutes before leaving for his
testimonial dinner, he is prompted
to rummage through his memory
filled desk. Therein, he comes
across a book with his caricature
drawn on its Hy-leaf, a newspaper
clipping of a student's arrest and
two halves of a SIO,OOO check.
As he sees the objects, he remem
bers their significance and the
viewer becomes aware of his influ
ence. His life has included more
than classroom teaching; his con
cern and compassion have helped
individual students more than he
realizes. As the third memory fades,
he slips into unconsciousness and
his death is discovered by another
faculty member calling him to
dinner.
S.C.A. Runs Vesper
Services
Both morning worship and ves
per services were held during
Religious Emphasis Week on Guil
ford campus, February 11-15.

University, main speaker of the
week, conducted the vespers on
Monday and Tuesday nights. The
rest of the week the services were
run by the organizations in the
Student Christian Association.
Morning watches were sponsored
by the Wesley Foundation on Mon
day, the Westminster Fellowship
on Wednesday, and the Baptist
S. U. on Friday. Evening services
were run by the Young Friends
on Wednesday, the Canterbury
Club on Thursday, and the Baptist
group on Friday.
Morning services were held at
8:10 and vespers at 6:45 in the
Student Union.

California as an undergraduate,
then he did his graduate work at
Yale Divinity School. He has taught
in three colleges. In 1953 he was
teaching in Yale Divinity School
and was the director of field work
there.
In chapel, Rev- Glasse spoke of
marriage and vocation as two im
portant aspects of our lives; and
these college years have great in
fluence on these two areas. He
reminded the student body that no

Discusses
' Using Religion in
Chosen Vocation
As part of the Religious Em
phasis Week program, a panel dis
cussion was held Tuesday night at
eight o'clock in the Fine Arts Room
of the library. Presided by Agnes
Stem, the panel, consisting of
Rachel Richardson, Royce Angel,
Jimmy Askins, and Woody Finley,
discussed the topic "How I Plan
to Use Religion in My Vocation."
Rachel Richardson, presenting
the position of one going into the
teaching profession, pointed out
the educator's responsibility in
leading an exemplary life. She men
tioned the importance of being im
partial and of treating each student
as a unique individual. In teaching,
Rachel concluded, a Christian
should try to instill in the student
a desire for learning, which is the
highest purpose for which God has
created man.
The virtue of a businessman
can not be measured by his extra
ordinary exertions, but rather by
his everyday conduct," said Royce
Angel in talking about the business
man's point of view. He made the
analogy that in the same way that
a label serves to identify a product,
so can Christianity be a label in
the world of business. Royce also
remarked about the businessman's
responsibility to his church and to
his community.
In relating social work to reli
gion, Woody Finley talked about
the challenge of being able to be
of service to mankind. Not only
does a worker help to solve and
prevent problems, but more im
portant is the fact that he is help
ing an individual to help himself.
Jimmy Askins made the distinc
tion that even though he is plan
ning to go into medical work as an
occupation, he hopes to make his
vocation that of being a full-time
Christian. With conviction, he
spoke of wanting to serve mankind
and of the unlimited power that
can be obtained by having faith
in God.
Merle Shelton led a song at the
start of the program. An effective
devotional was given by John
Juchter.
