participation in the Vietnam
Moratorium. Here in Greens

ticipated in the days activities.
In the morning there were
church services and meetings.
At 10 a.m., the weekly silent
vigil in front of the Federal
Building, in downtown Greens
boro, was expanded by several
hundred people to stretch
almost entirely around the
block. Many Guilford students
and faculty were in attendance
as were many other students,
parents, businessmen, and
women.
Some of these people with
stood the 54 degree tempera
ture and the biting wind for the
entire four hour period. Only a
negligible amount of heckling
from the passers-by was
noticed.
The rest of the afternoon was
filled with workshops, discus

UNC-G and Guilford. The speak
out here was very successful
although only to a small crowd.

Hair Trimmed
By Athlete
For Unity
The controversy over hair
length of basketball players has
been resolved. One player who
refused to cut his hair was dis
charged from the team, but in
formed sources indicate that
other reasons i were' invol
ved. Other players submitted to
Coach Jerry Steele's request.
Informed sources told The
Guilfordian that the players
submitted to the grooming
requirement in order to main
tain team unity.
The controversy began when
several players were requested
by Coach Steele to trim their
hair and shave. A group of
Black students expressed the
belief that Black identity was
involved in the situation so they
went to President Hobbs for an
official opinion.
Hobbs later released a
statement saying that although
a need for black identity exis
ted, neat grooming was ex
pected from anyone officially
representing Guilford colle P

.'Retreat!
A Guilford College Retreat
was held on October 11 and 12 at
The Carolina Inn in pinehurst,
North Carolina.
In attendance were trustees,
faculty members, administra
tors, and students.
The agenda for the retreat
consisted of a series of small
discussion groups as well as
general meetings.
The participants considered
a wide range of topics including
the possibility of a change in
women's hours and the feasibil
ity of an alteration in the college
policy on drinking. Other topics
discussed include athletic
scholarships and the alleged
polaration among groups on
the college campus.
In addition the trustees held
several short meetings during
the weekend.
At 1:30 a.m. Thursday mor
ning, October 9, a group of ap
proximately 12 students, calling
themselves "Catalyst," painted
the inside walls of the Hut green.
On one wall they wrote,
"There are more important
things that deserve attention."
About an hour after they
began, several students, includ
ing Mitch Zwiebel, a prominent
member of the Hut Committee,
entered the Hut and voiced their
opposition to the painting. The
entrance of these students pro
voked an angry exchange of opin
ions between members of th e
two groups.
Catalyst, the group which
sponsored the painting, was un
til that time, a semi-secret
group, begun originally as a
Richardson project of Terangi
Speed.
The group held several
meetings early this year, at
which members attempted to
formulate proposals to combat
alleged apathy on the campus.
The decision to paint the Hut
was made in an attempt to erad
icate this alleged problem.
Members were discouraged
over the failure of most Guilford
College students to involve
themselves in matters of social
concern.
