Vice President for Enrollment and
Campus Life Randy Doss unsuccessfully
tried to take over the school last Mon
day when he and a group of armed
storm troopers entered Bryan Audito
rium, jumped onto a table, fired two
shots into the air, and told the audi
ence that "the long-awaited Guilford
Putsch has begun! This is the Revolu
tion!"
Doss then took other Guilford ad
ministrators into a back office, where
he told them he was now the leader of
Guilford, and offered them posts in his
new government.

Associate Academic
Dean Jim Hood, Vice
President for Institu
tional Advancement
Charlie Patterson, and
Dean of CCE Bill
Stevens, were initially
reluctant to agree to
the offer, a source in
the administration
says.
However, Doss was
furious and threat
ened to shoot them
and then commit sui
cide.
"I have three bul
lets for you, gentlemen,
and one for me!" Doss
exclaimed.
The three men then
agreed.
Chief Financial Officer Phil Manz ar
rived soon thereafter. Manz has made
statements in the past that indicate he
sympathized strongly with Doss' claims
that the recent decline of the college is
due to communists, socialists, anar
chists, fascists, terrorists, bureaucrats,
and bolsheviks.
Manz agreed to become head of the
Guilford Army in Doss' regime.
While Doss was appointing college ad
ministrators, Marion Kerby, Director of Ath
letics and leader of a group of storm
troopers, seized Founders Hall.
Reports that the combatants then ar
rested known leftists Max Carter and Jerry
Goddard could not be confirmed by press
time.
Doss had planned to march from
Founders to New Garden and seize con
trol of the college, but surprisingly had
not arranged for storm troopers to take
control of Hege Library, where Academic
Dean Adrienne Israel soon got word of
the uprising and called the Greensboro

Police Department.
The storm troopers found the road
blocked at Quakerplatz, where several
GPD officers had assembled.
The two sides engaged in gunfire
when Doss, according to eyewitnesses,
threw himself to the ground, dislocat
ing his shoulder. He then ran to a
nearby car.
Although the Greensboro Police
were outnumbered, the storm troop
ers followed their leader's example and
ran away.

Supporters of Doss say he left the
scene so quickly because he had to
rush an injured young boy to the lo
cal hospital.
After hiding in an abandoned
classroom in King, Doss was arrested
Wednesday and is now awaiting trial
before the Judicial Board, said to be
largely sympathetic to his cause.
Doss said he is writing his ac
count of the fight while in prison, ten
tatively titled "My Struggle."
