Page 2 THE GUILFORDIAN Guilford College Guilford College, N. C. IF YOU DON'T HELP - - - DO YOU HINDER? Too often we find evidence in a college such as this one—in any college for that matter—that al though the average chronologi cal age of the college student shows him up as a mature indi vidual, the average maturity is not up to par. A building such as the library is built with a definite purpose in mind. It is to be used for the purpose of instruction, not de struction. Yet lately there have been some students in the college who have been abusing their li brary privileges.. Someone has been tearing articles out of the magazines, and marking up pages in books. Articles are missing from newspapers, and some of the magazines up on the third floor of the stacks have been missing when the librarians go to look for them. Facing facts, the whole situa tion is ridiculous. The magazines as well as the books are there NEWS BRIEFS Merle Mallard, a sophomore music major from Wallace, N. C., was chosen to reign over the an nual Valentine's Day festivities at the Valentine Dance sponsored by the Social Committee on the night of February 13. Five girls were chosen in an election by the student body previous to the night of the dance, and judges The Guilfordian PRESS PubUshed bi-monthly during the collegiate year by the students of Guilford College Editor-in-Chief Carolyn Nimitz Managing Editor Margaret Haworth Business Manager ....

They may be checked out for a period of time and then returned. There is no reason whatsoever why students shouldn't be able to check them out and return them with just as many pages in them as were there originally. Actually, there is doubt as to whether you would be too pleased either if you went to read a maga zine that you wanted or were re quired to read and found the articles or one of the articles that you were looking for torn out. The library staff works hard to keep the right books and the right magazines in their right places so they will be there when you go to look for them.. They also do their best to keep the material up to date and in circulation. Most students are not expected to help in this work, but the least they could do is not hinder those who are trying to do a good job. selected the winner from these five. * * * Scott Morrison will present a Conversation Piano Concert in Duke Memorial Hall on the night of March 4.

THE GUILFORDIAN Sjnce 0|R ©-de. s "" z: —a=_ ; Prof to Sludeni (Q~iJuJsU> AtsCasKyj i A LETTER TO THE EDITOR Dear Editor; I am writing this letter in the hope that all Guilford students will stand by their belief in fair ness on all procedures and prob lems that are concerned with col lege life. I know that every student wants to be given a fair and just decision in whatever problem may arise that he or she may be involved in. It has just recently come to my ear that several weeks ago stu dents in three different classes, during the previous semester were given a final grade that was unfair, unjust and without any consideration given to homework, tests, lab work and class contri bution. It is a fact that all students of these three classes were graded solely on the basis of the final examination. For instance, one student had a grade of "A" before the final but made a grade of "C" on the final examination. This student LEFTOVERS There is always something the matter with a man or a motor when knocking. * * * A French mystic claims that women will soon be able to call their husbands back from the spirit world. It seems that a lot of hubbies aren't going to have any peace, even after death. * * The chief of police in a small New England town was also the town's only veterinarian. An agi tated woman called up his home. "Do you want my husband in his capacity of veterinarian or chief of police?" asked the chief's wife. "Both," came back the reply. "We can't get the bulldog to op en his mouth, and there's a burg lar in it." ♦ * * As he watched a revolving door, an inebriated gent saw a man walk in. As the door swung was given a "C" for the course and not the averaged grade of "B". This was only the case of one student of the nearly hun dred that were in these three classes. All classes were taught by the same teacher. It has also been heard that sev eral of these students have met with the fair and just president of our college concerning this matter. I am quite certain that this matter will be dealt with ac cordingly and that the deserving grade will be administered to the students. You, the Guilford students now know of this matter and I am sure, you, as I, will want the students concerned to be given the fairness deserved as you would want if you were one of these students. The eyes of the Guilford stu dent body now look upon the administration of Guilford Col lege. We are sure they will not fail in doing their proper duty. A concerned fellow student around, a pretty girl stepped out. "Darned good trick," he mutter ed, "but I still don't see how that guy changed clothes so fast." * * * A little girl, sitting in church watching a wedding, suddenly exclaimed —"Mama, has the lady changed her mind?" "What do you mean?" the mother asked. "Well, she went up the aisle with one man, and came back with another one." ♦ ♦ * If you think old soldiers just fade away, just try getting into your old army uniform. * * ♦ To be pleasant is an achieve ment. In some people it rises to the level of genius. * * ♦ If some people lived up to their ideals they would constantly be stooping. February 26, 1960 WG Theatre Presents Spanish Comedy The Theatre of Woman's Col lege will present a Spanish come dy, Take Two From One, by Gre gorio and Maria Sierra on Febru ary 25, 26, and 27 at Aycock Auditorium in Greensboro. This production is being directed and designed by Ray Smith, who when in Cleveland, Ohio, had consider able experience in directing Span ish plays. The Martinez Sierras, two of Spain's most prolific playwrights have turned out a delightful and probing satire on the manners, mores, and religion of present day life. A young Madrid lawyer, assuming his first wife has been lost in an accident at sea, remar ries a year and a half later only to have his first wife return from Africa where she has been wor shipped as a goddess by the tribe who rescued her. The problem of the young lawyer in his home, surrounded by two spirited young wives, a highly conventional Spanish family, the Church, and his own conscience rapidly devel ops into an extremely hilarious situation. Cathrine Wright, a member of the Woman's College Far East touring company, plays the part of Dianna, the first wife. As Mar cela, the second wife, Willett Dickerson portrays the good, sweet type whose surface hides a nature as violent as Diana's own. Faustino, the young man suddenly caught in this irregu lar situation is portrayed by Pierre Schlosser. As the third event in the Wom an's College Theatre's Interna tional Season, Take Two From One reflects the innate -Ayarmth, charm, and passion of the Spanish people. This social satire, written with beautiful sensitivity and with exquisite good taste, has much in common with Shaw, but barbs are softened by an abund ant humanitarianism. Curtain time at Aycock Audi torium is 8:00 P. M. Tickets may be obtained at the box office in Aycock from 2 P. M. until 5 P. M. February 17 through 27 or at the door.
