She recently attended the University of North Carolina where she has been completing her work for her Ph.D. in English. For eight years Miss Marlette served previously in the position that she now holds. She left Guil ford in the spring of 1956 and re turned to resume her job this fall. Speaking of the duties of the Dean of Women, Miss Marlette said, "Al though I realize the problems and long hours involved in this work, I consider it a challenge and a pleas ure to work with the students and faculty at Guilford College." Although she was gone, she ad mitted that she felt Guilford was "really home," and that her work was here. Mrs. Milner to Head Altrusa Club This past summer at the conven tion of Altrusa International, Mrs. Ernestine C. Milner, professor of psychology at Guilford College, was chosen president-elect of the organization. This position will be in effect for a two-year term, after which Mrs. Milner will become president of the international club. Mrs. Milner has previously been president of the local chapter of the organization, chairman of vari ous committees, and governor of the district organization. She has also served as vocational informa tion chairman of the club. Prior to becoming president-elect, she held the offices of second vice-president and then of first vice-president.

Absent are Mrs. Gerald Vance and Miss Gwen Reddick. Yates is Named Head Registrar Mr. Bill L. Yates has been ap pointed acting registrar of the col lege and Mrs. Lucille N. Thomp son has been named assistant regis trar. These two are taking over the duties of the position Miss N. Era Lasley held for 36 years. Work in the registrar's office is being divided up so that Mr. Yates will carry on most of the corres pondence and work with the public while Mrs. Thompson will keep die permanent records, check sheets on seniors and other paper work. This turnover in the administra tion brought about the new system of registration this fall in which the student himself did most of the work. "Mrs. Thompson deserves credit for changes in the set-up," said Mr. Yates. "She labored over it day and night all summer." According to Mr. Yates the office is making a decided effort to con tinue improving the organization of its proceedings. Miss Lasley, former registrar, is working with the Alumni Office as Special Alumni Assistant. She is trying to complete an accurate alumni directory which is expected to be finished by 1962 in time for Guilford's celebration of its 125 th year of continuous service. Miss Lasley officially retired as registrar last year and is now working on a part-time basis. Dr. Kent is New Dean of Men Dr. E. Daryl Kent has accepted the position of the Dean of Men and the Dean of Students for the coming academic year. The posi tion was left open when Bill Yates, the former Dean, moved to the po sition of Registrar of the College. Dr. Kent's responsibilities will in clude both the management of the men students as well as the per formance of various other duties in connection with the office. This office is not new to Dr. Kent. He held the Dean's position from 1947-1957. His office is located in the College Union. A hunter climbed a tree so no one would take him for a deer. It worked too—he was shot for a bear. GUILFORD COLLEGE, N. C., OCTOBER 9, 1959 Recreation Program Planned Probably one of the best addi tions to Guilford College this past year is the newly appointed Recre ation Committee, consisting of seven faculty members and twelve students. Not to be confused with the Social Committee, the chief aims of this group are to promote more varied activities on the cam pus and to provide something to do for the students on week-ends. The first big leap by the com mittee was to make plans for keep ing the College Union open on Sat urday and Sunday afternoons and nights. No doubt this will be wel come, especially to those who don't go home or who cannot afford to go off campus every week-end. The use of Shore's basement for all the girls is to go into effect, and it is hoped that all those who would like to get into a bridge game or play ping pong will take advantage of the opportunity. This will help the girls from different dorms be come acquainted as well as give them a place to relax. Perhaps you have noticed the recreation programs after supper have been regularly frequent. This is another step of. the committee and they plan to keep the schedule two nights a week; moving into the gym and inside activities during the winter. The most unusual of the projects is the promotion of co-educational competitive tournaments. These are planned in badminton, ping pong, volley ball, bridge, and shuffle board, so grab a partner and sign up when they are announced. This committee was formed in the interest of the students and it is hoped that they will take advan tage of these new opportunities and that the school spirit will be revived and increased by these measures. The Recreation's Committee con sists of: Coach Appenzeller, Coach Maynard, Miss Reddick, Miss Perry, Miss Upchurch, Miss Mar lett, Charlie Hendricks, Kaye Bur ton, Margaret Haworth, Juli Trim ble, Sue Drake, Jan Cornell, Lynn Hundley, Betty Lou McFarland, Groome Fulton, Ed Bannigan, Frank Bailey, Jim Boles and Tom O'Briant.

The record was made in May and the first copies have ar rived. The record is a 33 1/3 RPM recording on the RCA Victor label. The members have set aside the week of October 11-17 as "Choir Record Week." Many promotional activities are planned including canvassing the Guilford and Greensboro area. The choir asks that all students join in helping Eromote the record, for it is an onor for both the choir and our college to be able to make such a record. The record is not made for profit, but with the idea of intro ducing better music into our so ciety. The profits are returned to a Quakers Down Bridgewater 52-7 (Page 3) fund which will make it possible for future choirs to make similar recordings. The original record which was made in 1956 was com pletely financed by the choir mem bers. The profits from the first rec ord were used to finance the new record with the money given by last year's choir members. The music on the record includes a variety of secular and spiritual music. All of the numbers are done without accompaniment and the members sing from memory. Much credit must be given the choir for the time spent learning the music and the many hours of practice re quired to achieve the standards for such a recording by such a well known record company. Special credit is due to the directors, Mr. (Continued on page four) Number 1
