For a time our books laid by ; And the parting rifts of sunlight. As they linger soft and long, Shed a hollow ' d gleam of gladness On our merriment and song. Now the songs of dear old Guilford Peal across the downy green, From Archdale to Memorial Span the distance far between ; And the walls of dear old Founders The reverberations fling, From Cox Hall to New Garden, As our voices gayly ring. Then across to fair Arcadia The chimings wing their flight, Till beyond the far-flung hill-tops They kiss heaven ' s dome of light Then as if they rued their boldness, Back they come in echoes gay ; And thus end the winged praises Of the Crimson and the Gray. 11 DEBORAH MARY BROWN A.

Have you ever known a person whom every- body loved? Well, just such a person is Aunt Debbie. She always- has a smile for you and has one of the best dispositions that any per- son ever possessed. French is her major work ami she is well rewarded with A ' s. Her great popularity was manifested in her almost unanimous election as editor-in-chief of The Guilfordian and the ease with which she has edited the paper shows that much awaits Iter in the literary world. The high order of scholarship and unexcelled literary ability which she possesses make her the most com- petent and highly respected girl in the class. As Aunt Debbie bids her Alma Mater fare- well she leaves many worshippers who have lost their heroine. There is no other girl in the class so generally loved and none who have so many friends. Her gentleness and modestv will give her an enviable position in the world Where ' er she turns the Graces Iwinayc pay. Age 20; Height, 5 ft. 5 in.; Weight 125 There must be something ill a name de- spite Shakespere ' s testimony to the contrary, for this maiden is all grace Gracette is one of those rare personalities whose warm win- ning manner makes her welcomed ill all cir- cles. The art for which she is known (though not the only one of which she is master), is that of bringing from the heart of the piano, melodies which charm the hearts of all. Her musical talent is truly excellent, not onh in point of expression but throughout the college and community she is known as a master ac- companist. Not the least in a category of her charms is her social grace. Her simple gra- ciousness puts one at ease in her presence and her merry laugh is g 1 to hear needless to sav her friends are legion.

Marie is retiring and unobtrusive almost to a fault and one has to know her intimately in order to see and understand those admirable and superb qualities of character of which she possesses a great number. Thoughtful and unselfish, the comfort of others is always her first care. She has perhaps a deeper apprecia- tion of the fine in literature and art than any other member of our class and this quality has been more than evident in the high order of her society work. Refinement and culture are inherent in Marie and the desire to attain life ' s best and highest is her guiding star. To know Marie is to hue her.

In the fall of 1915 the cold winds of Canada swept Gertrude southward. She landed at Guilford to join our class. To build a per- fect character is her aim. She stands as an independent thinker and has a wonderful pow- er of continuation when she begins to dis- course. Gertrude delves into psychology and is a perfect crank about anything pertaining to biology. Her talent in art and music is hidden to many. And she appears to be very much of a dreamer. Who knows but that when these dreams materialize there will be a successful life of service. Enthusiasm and perseverance are her hand maids when once her mind is made to undertake or support am thing. GERTRUDE DARDEN CRONK A. B. Pickering, Ontario, Canada ELBERT WILLIAM FORT A. B. Fork, S.

His record in general scholarship is one to which he may point with pride and the mysteries of psychol- ogy and logic hold no terrors for him. In him we find the rare combination of musician and athlete. It is hard to say which he had rather be doing playing Beethover or standing like a stone in the center id the football line. In so- ciety work, in class work, on the athletic field he has always been found with his shoulder to the wheel. Of a kindly and sociable dispo- sition he is a well rounded character. ■Nothing yi thusiash thieved without Age 20; Height, 5 ft. 9 in.; Weight 154 President (3); CI., v.

Squarely honest and straight forward he never acts merely to gain popular favor. Nevertheless he has succeeded in winning numerous friends during his four year ' s sojourn at Guilford. Dame Fortune has smiled indulgently on Oris and as a favored child of Iters he enjoys a goodly share of her blessings. She has granted unto him an en- gaging presence and a certain charm of man- ner which we may call gallantry. But the smiles of Dame Fortune have not given Oris an exaggerated notion of his own importance. Indeed it might be said that he is somewhat reticent when it comes to an expression of his ideas. Xo man belonging to the C ' las of ' IS can lay claim to more genuine mental ability than can Oris. This is shown as well by the usual wit and humor of his conversation as by the ease with which he captures good grades. Capable ami determined whatever Gris wills to do, he can do.

Dignity and composure sit enthroned on Ira ' s brow. Thoroughly self-confident he has succeeded in winning the confidence of those with whom he comes in contact. An excel- lent intellect, an especially good student in history and economics, broad-minded and pos- sessing sound judgment may be safely attrib- uted to Ira. Standing for the best things in life he impresses one with his ambition and devotion to worthy ideals. Repeatedly has he demonstrated his ability of oratory, debating and general scholarship, so that lie holds the high esteem of his fellow students. Possess- ing business and executive ability of a high order one may hazard the guess that his ear- nest and conscientious labor will tell in his life work. He is well paid who is well satisfied.

Jack enjoys the unique distinction of be- ing the youngest member of the class and the oldest student at Guilford. Six of his eighteen years have been spent here. Two in prep and four in college. His age speaks well for him as a student, and as for his future we can easily predict. Chemistry is his fort, although he passes everything else. He does not worry when he gets C ' s nor does he boast when he gets A ' s. He is an all round class-man and before him lies a great future. DAVID HOUGHTON JACKSON B. S. Guilford College, N. C.

For the past four years the athletic history of Guilford College lias been inseparably bound up with the name of Benbow Jones. In no branch of this department of college life has he ever been found wanting. But you have not heard the whole of Benbow ' s story, versatile beyond the ordinary run of men, his sound judgment and executive ability are oft- en in demand. A clear, logical thinker, and his conclusions are never far from correct. Possessing an engag ing personality Bow makes friends easily and these he holds by his genial comradship.

Seek- ing and enjoying congenial companionship, af- fable, lovable and anxious to please, she wins and holds many friends. She is also a sincere and conscientious worker, and her idea- and ideals are the highest possible. She is a friend worth having and always willing and happy to aid one who is fortunate enough to posses. her friendship. Her social graces are many and pleasing and the charm of her personality is felt by all with whom she comes in contact. In a ll the various departments of college life with which she has been connected she has done her work faithfully and well. BEATRICE LEWALLEN A. B. Ashboro. N. C. ADDIE IRENE MORRIS A. B.

L,ithe of form, militant of spirit, strong of brain is Addie, our athlete — our all round Senior. During her college career she has championed the cause of girls ' athletics and lias done more to popularize the various sports among girls than any other member of our class. But don ' t get the mistaken idea into your head that athletics is her only strong point. Her scholarship has ever been of a uniformly high standard. In fact every phase of college life has felt the influence and power of this little maiden— the live wire of the Class of ' IS. She says that she is a suffra- gette ami she may come to the height of her ambition in a Senate ball or after all in a bungalow — Who knows ?

Bill is our baby, but though she is small everyone falls under the charm of her win- ning personality. She has entered heartily into all college activities and has won her just share of honors. Fortunate are those who can claim the friendship of this little brown-eyed maiden for her heart ever beats with warmth for those whom she calls her friends. Her ability as a writer and a musician is well known and we would predict a great future for her, but apparently her many charms have already proved irresistable, and doubtless some day, her looks a cottage would adorn.

He thinks that this world is a pretty nice place after all. and never is his face- dark- ened by a frown of ill-humor, or a cloud of pessimism. His record in mathematics speaks for itself, and we predict that some day he will be an important factor in solving the world ' s great problems JOSEPH GRAY REDDECK A. B. Trinity, N. C.

Sam is a rather quiet, unassuming person, whose real worth is not known to many except his closest friends. He lias devoted much of his time to English and Chemistry but his ma- jor work is History and Economics. For the past four years the Websterian Literary So- ciety has hail no member more loyal than he. He is a sincere friend and an industrious stu- dent. We are expecting great things of Sam and no doubt lie will wake up some fine morn- ing to find himself one of the competent ones of his time in whatever pursuit he may choose : . follow.

The fact that only live hours work stood between A. J. and his diploma at the close of last year shows that he is an industrious student. You can always find him in the chemistry laboratory breaking test tubes or in the biology laboratory dissecting a cat. He is preparing to be a doctor some day and with his energy and determination we can easily predict a great future for him in his chosen field. He has been a faithful and loyal sup- porter of both Y. M. C. A. and Literary So- ciety. But A. J. decided to leave us at the end of his Junior year to continue his favor- ite studies at the State University and at tin- same time graduate with his old class. ANDERSON JONES SMITH B. S.

Ikr modesty and demure- ness have not been obstacles in attaining her desire which being interpreted is A ' s. Though her course has largely been a study ol the grand old masters, themes of a more mod- ern character have held no terrors for her. Leah is a quiet thinker, a Conscientious stu- dent, a successful worker. Her characteris- tics are not such as to make her widely known but that chosen circle of friends knows how to value her loyalty and devotion. LEAH ELLEN STANLEY A. B. Guilford College, N.

Mitch was one of our day students until his Senior year. He, too, no doubt, is able to give its many interesting stories of ancient Guilford. His ability as a chemist is shown by the fact that he was for two years assistant in the Chemistry Department. He has also shown us that he has great possibilities as an actor and speaker. (We do not mention his record as a mathematician). Mitch was taken from ns a few weeks before the close of Senior year anil inducted into the chemical service of the United States Army. We are sure thai he will prove a valuable asset to this department. Laugh and the world la Aye 22; Height, 5ft. 7 i Philo ihs with you.

For had not forty- four young hope- fuls cast in their lot at this honored seat of learning on the above date. And truth compels us to admit that this bunch was perhaps more than ordinarily forlorn and friendless in appearance, and a lost or strayed sign might well have been appended to any one of us. With feelings of mingled wonder and awe did we become initiated into the mysteries of our first opening reception and receive formal introduction to those higher up. And that first class meeting! How far away and hazy that evening seems in retrospect. Rut by some process which James could doubtless have explained satisfactorily we can even at this range reproduce slightly that thrill which crept down our spines when we found that we in class meeting as- sembled were actually voting for class officers. An older chronicle assures us that this ancient election was a wise one, ami be it far from your present scribe to dispute such an authority. Suffice it to say that we duly became an organized class and took upon ourselves the role of Guilford College citizens. Doubtless we received the prescribed amount of advice and admonition from the members of the class just above, and mayhaps a few of our number even suffered physical violence ( ?) during some of the snowstorms of that year. Rumor has it that some ' 18-ers actually camped out on certain nights during that first year. Re that as it may, it must be said that we remained thoroughly good-natured all the while and were always willing to be shown. In the spring term of this first year we met the Sophomores in forensic combat and made them fight to the last ditch for the two-to-one decision ren- dered in their favor. Even in our earliest days we possessed orators of note and Roger Kiser succeeded in bearing off the Clay oratorical medal — an unusual honor for a first year man. ( )ur Freshman athletic record while in no way brilliant is one upon which we look backward with satisfaction. We put down our erstwhile moral advisors in interclass basketball, and made the Juniors look well to their laurels for the class championship. And now it becomes my duty to chronicle the saddest event connected with our initial year at Guilford. Of the valiant host who bravely enlisted in the ranks of College Algebra, few alas ! survived to tell the tale. Lest our readers should dwell too long on this sad picture, we shall hasten to sing the story of our second year at Guilford. Rack again we came twenty- eight strong. This was to be sure a slight decrease in numbers, but our short- 28 GUILFORD ened roll call was amply made up for by our superabundant confidence and cocksureness. Firmly convinced that we held in our possession the one and only remedy for all the errors of humanity, and that Guilford was our oyster to be opened at pleasure, we proceeded to make ourselves seen and heard within these college walls. Perhaps our chief claim to glory for this year lies in our athletic record. We furnished men for each of the varsity athletic teams, and we took tenderly unto ourselves the interclass baseball championship for the year. In attest of this fact, witness the glowing ' 18 which shines out like a beacon from the Pharos at the ' rack of Founders — a fitting memorial to the prowess of our acro- bats as well as to our athletes ! But — we must on with our story. September. 1916, found even a smaller number than the preceding year back at our posts of duty. This group although fully justifying the epitaph Jolly ]uniors were nevertheless taking on a new se- riousness and thought fulness as new occasions taught new duties. We fast began to realize that wiser heads than ours had grown gray in pondering the difference between what is and what should he, and relinquishing our Sophomoric plans of w : orld reformation, we set ourselves earnestly to the tasks which three years of college life enjoin. If it be true that we live in deeds. then it follows that we of ' IS lived rather intensively in the good year 1917. For upon us as Juniors de- scended that year the interclass basketball championship. Having had two rep- resentatives on the team, we feel also that ' 18-ers may claim a share in the honor which belongs to Guilford as State champion in the field of collegiate baseball. A history of this Junior year would be sadly incomplete should we omit to mention that with rare diplomacy and tact we secured the gracious consent and presence of Miss Osborne on a Junior picnic — an event hitherto unheard of. A custom was thus established for which all Juniors who come after us should be eternally grateful. It also became our pleasure to entertain the Class of ' 17 during the spring of this year, and their visit to us will always be a red letter day in the memory of ' 18. ' Can it really be possible that I have arrived at the final year of my chron- icle? It seems only yesterday since a certain one of our number went into the library, and timidly removed a newspaper from its hanger, experiencing untold anguish and embarrassment when it was discovered that this had not been at all necessary ! On September 6, I ' M 7. sixteen of ' 18 made known their intention to carry on and see the thing through to a finish. One of our number had decided to secure this last year of training at our State University ; another having heard Uncle Sam ' s ringing call to the colors had responded instantly. Several others, feeling perhaps that three years of college life are almost as good as four, re- solved to direct their activities along other lines. It is yet early to chronicle the story of our Senior year. But even now the singing of Blest Be the Tie That Binds gives us a throaty, choky feeling and everywhere in the various organizations as successors take our places we are reminded that Guilford campus will soon know us no more. 28 GUILFORD Our Senior boys are still making Guilford ' s athletic history, and their places on the various teams will with difficulty be tilled next year. Be it said to our everlasting credit that although Psychology launched a desperate offensive against us we have safely survived its ' onslaughts with no casualties and having braved the assaults of determinism, we of ' 18 bid fair tii become metaphysicians of note. March 0. 1918! That is a high water mark in our Senior history. For on that date the Class of ' 19 threw open the doors of New Garden and with a gra- cious hospitality before unequaled. even in Guilford ' s history, made us their guests — a pleasant picture in a Senior ' s gallery of memories. My task is done. You have heard the story of ' 18. Disappointing? Well, perhaps — in some respects. But we hope nevertheless that we have given Guil- ford something. We know that she has given us much. It is with a feeling of sadness that we lay down our pen. Our career at Guilford, be it what it may, is finished and each one of us can say with sincerity: I wish myself could talk to myself As I left him four years ago; I could tell him a lot That would help him a lot In the things he ought to know. _ GUI I, FOR ftemor Cla £ $ropije£ The American mail, miss. and with a low bow Chang placed in my eager hands a miscellaneous collection of month-old papers, magazines and bulletins, among which my quick eye caught sight of a satisfactory number of interesting, personal-looking letters The papers were hastily but carefully assorted and put to my left, for they would receive due attention later. But letters came first, and I held them reverently in my two hands— seventeen of them, with one Lone Oak Farm on top. While I read the belated news from home, I held the others close in my arms; but when I had finished, I let them fall in lu xuriant confusion into my lap, as I dreamily approved of the weight of this one, or the bulkiness of that. And this other one— what about it? The biggest, heaviest of the lot, post- marked Washington, D. C. Curiously I broke the seal, and forthwith a great light pene- trated my beclouded intellect, and a sigh of genuine thankfulness escaped my lips, for mis- sive joined to missive came pouring out— The Round Robin Letter of the Class of 18, Oh, joy! Letters from everybody in my class at old G. C. after ten years! Oh, memories that bless. It would probably take me two hours to get the most out of this one letter, so 1 got my nicest footstool and a comfortable rocker— American luxuries— and began at the beginnning. „ ._,„_ New York, September, 8, 1927. Dear Eighteen -ers : I don ' t know why I was selected to start the ninth Round Robin, but I ' m glad enough to do it. I think this annual letter is the most downright satisfactory thing our class has ever done. You remember at commencement we couldn ' t point to many distinct achieve- ments, could we? Well, as I can ' t speak for anybody else, and besides, everybody will add his own story, I ' ll tell you about myself. I ' m putting most of my time in the woman ' s league here, and my particular service is editing one of the monthly publications. You know I experi- mented in journalism a little (Of all modesty— 1 have her two latest books!) and I find mv position rather agreeable, as it leaves me some time for myself. Now I could ramble on all day — writing being a habit of mine, but I will say the rest in a few words. September always brings back memories of going to Guilford, of the first excitement of registration, when year after year we met and, carefree, happy-go-lucky col- lege boys and girls, shouted to each other across the campus, Hail Soph and Junior and Senior as the black and gold standard advanced. I realize now that my life was largely shaped in those four years, and that whatever I have done or will do is a result of the quiet stimulation of the Guilford atmosphere, and the loyal friends and pleasant companionship I enjoyed there, and my warm interest follows in an especial way all who were in my class — the Class of ' 18. Please write something, everybody, if only a line, and keep the letter going. Greetings to all of you from one of you. Debbie Yes. Deborah, with her old kindliness and affection and modesty. The casual reader wouldn ' t guess she had taken all kinds of literary honors, and was spoken of as a Native of the United States. And she sent her communication to Little Grissom. Philadelphia, Pa., September 25, 1927. Dear Classmates : When Deborah ' s letter came, I was away from my office, or the cause shouldn ' t have been delayed two weeks by me. I guess you all know I adopted Pennsylvania for my State eight years ago when I went into the law, and since then I ' ve worked hard, even if most of you do think I owe 31 [LFOR my present job to my politics! (As a matter of fact, he ' d never have gotten it in North Carolina I. When 1 was in Greensboro last summer. I drove out to Guilford and 1 had one thrill when I saw a certain substantial evidence of the interest of the Class of ' IS in her welfare of the college. 1 want everyone of you to go hack some time.

My, our class is scattered over every portion of the windswept earth, isn ' t it? It scarcely seems possible that we used to meet every day for Psych and Logic — and how- did one room contain so much potential greatness! Since my return from France I have enjoyed teaching French very much and I give my whole time to my graduate students. But, lest 1 tiring back past agonies, I ' ll drop French. I ' m planning a visit to Guilford next summer. I ' m very anxious to see the improve- ments out at the college, and if any of you happen by, look me up. Lots of luck. Leah P. S. — I ' m sending my letter to Ruth, for she ' s recently moved to Greensboro and I think her address isn ' t generally known. Greensboro, X C, October 28. 1927. Dkah Seniors : That ' s (he way I remember you all best, and that name brings back old times best I know I haven ' t kept up with my classmates as 1 should ami I ' ve kept this letter too long. But you know 1 was married in the summer of ' 19 — and that ought to be excuse enough. I haven ' t by any means lost interest in Guilford, for we ' ve been out there several times recently. But I must stop. I ' m going lo send my contribution with the rest to Sam Smith at the State College of Alabama. With all good wishes, Kith S. Happily married written between every line. Oh, well; 1 expected it Albany, Ala.. November 14. 1927. Dear Members or the Class of ' 18: I think 1 can add only a brief account of myself tonight, for we are doing heavy work here now. You know, of course, that this is my second year at the State College in the agricultural department, and I ' m to have a special assistant with my work next year. I ' m sending my very best wishes to the Class of ' 18 and the promise that I ' ll try to give a better account of myself next year. Sam ( )ne worker in the class, at least. Winston-Salem, X. C, December 1. 1927, Dear Classmates : When Sam sent me the Round Robin, 1 deliberately cut two English classes, and de- voured it. It was very, very interesting. I ' m teaching at Salem yet, and I like the work. I majored in English, you know.

Marie Father, forgive them, for they know what they do — hut 1 knew they ' d do it. Well, what ' s this ? NIGHT LETTER THE WESTERN UNION TELEGRAPH COMPANY Received at Baltimore, Md., December 16, 1927. Dear Tot: I enjoyed the letters very much and intended to enclose my mite, but just as I was finishing it, I was called away on some mighty urgent and important business, so I had to leave your address and orders for the Round Robin to be forwarded to you. Please enclose this note as an excuse for my flunking — but really I can ' t add any- thing of interest. I haven ' t been to Guilford in five years, and since you were here, 1 haven ' t seen a G. C. student. I ' m anxious ti go hack, maybe next summer, and see the new gym, and the ' 18 fountain. Hurriedly, Bo Jones Oh yes, just like him. Business personified, but quite a social personage, yet, I ' ll bet And now for Tot ' s thousand-word composition. What, a short one ! Baltimore, Md.. January 6, 1928. Dear ' 18 Folks : I can ' t write much, because my time is very full. The letters reached me here, because I ' m on a concert tour, as Benbow remembered. Yes, and my manager is a perfect tyrant — little as you ' d think it of the musical Mr. Fort. Since he ' s going to add a postscript, I guess I can ' t call him anything else. And now for my only bit of news — and to put it plainly — I ' m going to be married in October next (Yes, she always said she wouldn ' t), and you ' ll know the rest when the invi- tations come out. Wish me well, ye friends of my youth ! Tot Well, and here ' s the postscript. P. S.— Hail Seniors. Totten handed me the letter and I ' m every bit as busy as she, and worried besides. She said she broke the news gently. Well, I ' m out of a job. I knew after her success in New York, she ' d weary of the victor ' s spoils. And now, unless I can get another star to pilot around, it ' s me for old S. C. and idleness, while my fingers lose their cunning, and my managing ability rusts. But I ' m game. Congratulations to the man. Elbert Oh-h ! I thought once — and who next? — a note! West Point, January 20, 1928. Dear People : I ' ve just finished the letters, but I can ' t write a long account of myself, because the Captain is coming over to take me out to dinner with the other officers and their wives. And besides, we ' re just living the uneventful life of the army in time of peace. Best wishes, Beatrice L. They were stationed there for a brilliant winter in military circles, 1 suppose. Trust Beatrice to enjoy a life like that. And she sent hers to A. J.

Yon probably know that a few of us who graduated together have built a rather modern hospital In the Land of the Sky, and I ' m in charge. Won ' t some of you come up for a rest-cure? r ' ve lost most of the Guilford people, but I ' m sending this to Ellen Raiford, who ' s returned from India. 1 hope her address is Ivor. A. J. So Ellen ' s home on a leave. I wonder who ' s planning the menus for India right now! Ivor, Va., February 16, 1928, Dear Classmates : I was so glad to get the letters, for strange to say, I almost lost trace of you while I was in Calcutta. But now I ' m home for good, ami I ' m anxious to go to Guilford. I shall probably go to Yearly Meeting. Will any of the members of my class he there? I ' d like to hold a service with some of you around the campus ornament before Mem. This seems to be taking place of wedding announcements, so I ' ll give you fair warn- ing that I didn ' t leave India without provisions for the future. Here ' s to the class ! Teeter Oh, my heart! How much that last paragraph contains. And here ' s Chester ' s letter — the only minister in the class. Jeffersonville, hid,. March 1, 1928. Dear Members of the Class of ' 18: I ' ve had a quiet hour of real enjoyment with the letters Ellen sent. 1 think they con- lain inorr surprising news than I have had about you since we separated. I ' m a real minister now, and since my pastorate is small, I ' ll probably be able to come to North Carolina and perform some ceremonies. How about it. ye ladies concerned? I ' m going to Guilford too — mavbe I ' ll get there for Yearlv Meeting Best wishes ' Chester P. S. — I ' m sending my letter to David J. at Raleigh. Well, Chester has sax t 1 the respectability of the class. And I wonder what David is doing. Raleigh. X. C, March ill, 1928. Dear Cl xSSMATES : I ' m mighty glad somebody remembered the insignificant little David and I got a chance at the interesting letters. As for me. I ' m working as a chemist in the State Department of Health. But I hope to get a better job soon. Mitch has promised to use his influence to get me a berth at Washington, I don ' t know anything new about Guilford, although Hinshau jiasses through here occasionally, and the Reddicks live in Raleigh ; but always when I see them, the rpierie is Have you heard from things about Guilford? And none of us have. I ' m going to hand this letter to foe right away, so any delay will not be on my head. Best regards to the Black and Gold David Jackson Ah, Raleigh seems to be a spot favored by our class. My, 1 know this ver-sperian scrawl ! 34 Raleigh, N. C, April 2, 1928. Dear Eichteen-ers: Because the letter has stayed here awhile is no indication that we ' ve forgotten our class. Judge Hinshaw of the district court, stopped over with us fur dinner tonight, and the whole talk has been about our class and the college. We never supposed we ' d scatter like we have, did we ? or we ' d probably thought twice before we fussed so much that last spring. But I ' m proud of the achievements of the 2U of us. Why, we have lawyers, missionaries, judges, doctors, financiers, chemists, teachers, and married people! And you know what 1 wish? Well, this — That we ' d have a reunion back at Guilford. And, to impress the remnant of the faculty who knew us ten years ago, I ' d have the missionaries dress in oriental brilliance, the judges wear their robes, the lawyers bring their books, the teachers their degrees, the doctors and chemists their tools and germs, and Benbow, our sole representative in the financial world, may bring a fragment of Wall Street! Do you get my idea out of all that? Well, I ' m going to stop writing. Please think- about this. I know from what lots of the rest of you have said, you ' d like to be back for a little while. Best wishes for a reunion. Bernice Oh — I wonder ! P. S. — Dear Classmates: Joe politely gave me the first chance to write, since I ' m his guest. I really don ' t have much to say, except to boost the idea of a reunion. We ' ve been discussing it, and I think May 28th is the auspicious date. That will be the anniversary of our graduation, and if we talk it up enough, we can all be there. Who said once: The Seniors can do anything they want to, provided they all agree on what they want to do and stick to it? Well, let ' s everybody write to everybody, and not give up the scheme. This letter should reach the other members of the class before May 28. Some of you write me — at Randleman, please, and Mrs. Hinshaw will forward it. 1 don ' t always know where I ' ll be. Ira And Joe ' s a constitutional lawyer. P. S. II. WELL, Everybody: The judge (ahem!) has left me only a small space, but I ' ll use it in talking about a reunion. That ' s a capital idea, and it ought to strike everybody right. Now let ' s go down for commencement and the Alumni Banquet on the 28th of May. It will do us all good, and be no end of fun. We can see the King extension, the fountain and — oh, joy, a new gymnasium, to the building of which we all lent our prayers, exhorta- tions and money. I ' ll wager Bo Jones will leave Wall Street long enough to inspect it. for I heard it said by one having authority, that he contributed towards it the goodly sur- plus between the H. C. of L. and his last year ' s salary. And we have heard Ellen ' s state- ment — she ' ll chaperone this last time ! Now everybody get the old class spirit — Back to G. C. ! I guess that ' s about all the message from our house, and I ' m sending this to Gertrude. JoE Pickering, Ontario. April 23, 1928. Dear Classmates: For once, I ' m right with you! I ' m coming back to Guilford this spring, and I ' ll cer- tainly attend the reunion. I enjoyed the letters because I ' ve traveled so much 1 had lost trace of almost all of you. But I ' ll be seeing you. Lots of luck, Gertrude Oh, yes, she has explored Europe, and taken degrees from every college she passed by. And she sent hers to Mitch. Funny I didn ' t recognize the writing — it looks like him. 35 an:;:; ii!i!ii:.:.:: ' ::i!iii GUILFORD Washington, D. C, May 7, 1928. Dear Seniors : I can talk so much better than I write that I ' ll only add to this that I shall either get a vacation in May or take one. My work (a government chemist, I believe), is pleasant, but I ' m sorry it hasn ' t more Math in it. (Oh, horrors!). I ' ll tell you all you want to know about me at Guilford, and I bid to do most of the talking. Until then, fare ye well. Mitch, ' 18 P. S. — I ' m sending this letter straight to China, and if it doesn ' t arrive in time for the reunion plan to take effect, I ' ll have done my best. So that ' s the end — a reunion all worked up, and I missed it. May 28, 1928 — May 28, 1918. Backward, turn backward, O time in your flight. May 28. Why that ' s today — this very day! They ' re all there but me — even Ellen. Oh, I wish 1 didn ' t know about it. What a time they ' re having right now — And I always did — cry when I was homesick — (Rap — rap — rap — rap — rap) and that Chinaman never would let me cry in peace. Yes, thank you. With feverish haste I tore open the little yellow envelope and took in the details of the aerogram. Greensboro, N. C, U. S. A., 9:30 a. m., May 2S, ' 28. We are missing you on the 10th anniversary of our graduation. Nineteen of us here. Love from the Class of ' 18 I say it ' s nice of them !

At the first, poor timid Freshmen, How we longed at ease to be ; How we trembled, how we toiled. O ' er Physics and Geometry. But we wiser grew as Soph ' mores Said such digging did not pay ; And the way we bluffed our teachers, No one ever knew but they. Onward we advanced as Juniors, Cast aside our childish ways ; Found that honest toil and pleasure Best could fill our college days. Then, with Senior years advancing, Alma Mater ope ' s the door To larger tasks and broader visions ; Which the future has in store. Then let all who love our college. Love her, heart and soul and mind ; Seniors, Juniors, Soph ' mores, Freshmen Sing with voices here combined. 52 is octette£ 0rgani?atton£ gtijlettcs ATHLETICS • i i COACH DOAK ATHLETIC CABINET Jones Tennis Ma Pre Ma Ma Pa ikctball Track WlLLARD nagei aseball Manager Pattkrso SVf. and Treas.

UCLFOiR L ;:;;!:m mini iminiiiiiiiiimii im; ; urn ' M JUtfjlettc at 6uflforfa Despite the fact that Guilford ' s athletic resources are very limited due to the. small number of students, it can be said that almost every person takes part in something. To prove this we have only to remember that right here is carried on practically all of the dif- ferent athletic sports, and besides, these are carried on in such a way that it is a credit to our college. Everyone here has something to do — both hoys and girls. Football, baseball, basket- ball and tennis predominates among the hoys, while the girls play basketball and tennis. No one should go without sufficient exercise, because we have the things to do and the places and material with which to do it. The strong and plucky can find a place on the gridiron, or in the gymnasium. Others can look to the tennis courts or track for exercise. Because of the other forms of athletics track work has received very little attention in recent years and no team has been put out this year. Tennis is only a minor sport and the college was represented this year by Fitzgerald and Fox of the Junior and Sophomore classes, respectively. While we have not had Football at Guilford for many years, it has at last woke up from its unnecessary sleep and secured a strong foothold in college athletics here. Last year it was slightly touched upon and a few college games were played. This year, however, it was enthusiastically aroused, when some of the strongest teams in North and South Caro- lina were played. State College, Wake Forest and Lenoir of North Carolina, and Wofford and Presbyterian College of South Carolina were on this year ' s schedule. We overwhelm- ingly defeated Lenoir, while the other games were lost by a close margin, no team scoring more than three touchdowns. We had two men on the team named as all state men. These were Zachary who played right guard and A. Newlin, our fullback. We mark this down as a successful season, for once again Guilford is recognized as being in the football sphere. Players winning letters this year were Jones, Zachary, Reddeck, A. Newlin, Fort, Stafford, Barnard, Babh, Walser, Bryant, Henley, and Hinshaw, manager. We cannot claim to have done anything wonderful in basketball for the past four years, yet our team has been one of representative type. This year the team while playing good ball had luck against it and failed to win games from teams which we simply out- played. Two of this year ' s team will be lost by graduation yet the material left is sufficient to make a strong team for next year. Basketball letters were awarded to Jones, Zachary and Grissom, manager. The national sport, the greatest of all athletics at Guilford, has been on the boom for many years. Every spring a splendid baseball team is produced. Last year was a record- breaker for the Quakers. Not only did the fast aggregation win the State championship but it did not lose a single college game during the season. Also on Easter Monday they walloped the Winston League Club by the score of 5 to 2. This year, while there are only five lettered men back, the team is going good. Already it has won four, lost one and played one tie, the latter being a sixteen inning contest at Raleigh with State College. The hitting of the team is not extremely high yet it is fair. The fielding can be said to be good. We are looking forward to an invincible machine and another State championship before the end of this season. Players winning letters in baseball this year will be: Zachary, Kendall. Ballinger, Reddeck, Hubbard, Marlette. A. Newlin, Johnson, Fitzgerald, Boren and Jones, manager. 4 ■. : y Tii GUILFORD liWBiiE .... ' : ' :.;:;„..: lillilllllllHllllliii FOOTBALL HINSHAW.

At the little weekly prayer meetings there is always something said to spur one on to higher and better things. Here girls come in close contact with each other in a way different from that in any other association in school. The real inward thoughts of the girls ' lives speak to each other in a most joyful and comforting manner. Especially this year has the theme been honest steady work on the part of each. Although some things may seem trivial, it is the ability to stand and stand strong when the test comes, that is needed. Just now the morale of the country especially rests on the stand- ard upheld by women and there is opportunity for such to be shown through the V. W. C. A. Hence we feel that back of all should be the sincere love for service which has been set by the great Leader. g. m. c. a. The purpose of the Young Men ' s Christian Association of Guilford College is to unite all young men wdio desire to strengthen the spiritual life and influence of the College; to develop Christian character and promote fellowship; to carry on aggressive Christian work, especially by and for students; to train its members for Christian service and to devote their lives to Jesus Christ. To bring this about the Young Men ' s Christian Association conducts prayer meetings on Thursday evening of each week during the school year. These meetings are in charge of a student or member of the faculty. The Bible study classes afford an excellent oppor- tunity for solving problems of Christian life. When a new student arrives at Guilford, he is presented with a handbook containing information which will help him to become accus- tomed to life at the College, and for the first few weeks is under the special care of the V. M. C. A. In conjunction with the Y. W. C. A. and social committee of the faculty, the Y. M. C. A. has charge of the social functions of the College. The readiness with which the boys have responded to the many calls, the enthusiasm with which they have entered the Bible classes, in short the general interest manifested in Y. M. C. A. work during the past year, show the effectiveness of the organization l, ' l FORD illllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllli i § . jfffl. C. a. Cabinet OFFICERS Chester M.
