Bowman Audrey Gardham Eunice Hoi.ioman Adelaide Fiedeldey Fred Binford Miss Lasley Mr, Newlin Dr. Purdom The Student Affairs Board goes through the agony of meeting each month in order to keep all other student organizations functioning properly. Work consists mainly in drawing up a budget which divides the student activities fee among the scrambling organizations and which is submitted to the uninformed students for disapproval. Also the Board discourages unstudious students from participating in major campus life, and in the spring conducts a general election of officers and leaders for the coming year. A representative from each student group, and the Faculty Committee on Student Activities make up the Bored. The fact that this is possibl the only organization on our leaf - campus which fails to entertain itself during the year with a tea, picnic, or partv demonstrates the seri- ousmindedness of its members. ■jfe SS 3r ' V-i««!l WOMEN ' S STUDENT GOVERNMENT Officers Catherine Beittel President Adelaide Fiedeldey lin -PiisiJenl Marianna Dow Sicn-tary Marv Laura McAriiiur Tiiasur,r Emily Cleaver House President nf Founders Elizabkih Neece House President of Mary llobhs Members Gloria Leslie Evelyn Hinshaw GwENS MacAi.lisifr Elizabeth Robertson Poll V Morton ' ictoria Stableford Miriam Clmmin EvEL n Pearson Til .T-si t thfmsclvfs in briaking a v;iy trciin the egotistic prestiue of the easily (itfeiided males, the women chnuse a council, in which each class is represented, to execute rules ot dormitory eluding and other restrictions of masculine companionship. Minor problems of a different nature claim a little attention, hut, on the whole, CJuilford young women behave themselves in such a way as to avoid censorship of the Women ' s Student Govern- ment, thus proving their own maturity and at the same time lighten- ing the burden of their elected guardians of sweetness and light. Nevertheless, each member has high responsibilities and the president of this cirgani ation holds the nmst difhcult p.isltinn iin campus.

President of the council dashes about keeping radios low in cars outside of King Hall, making speeches on the honor system, waking chapel speakers, and attempting to keep the moral standards of Guil- ford men at their usual high level. The subordinates attend meet- ings. Consequently, the Dean of Men is relieved of many of his responsibilities and dutifully thanks this splendid group of youths for their evolutionary achievements.

Consequently, they planned and executed glamor- ous moonlight hikes, argumentive investigations of both cam- pus and international situations, refreshing visitations of tacult ' homes, and discovered faculty doubles in a con- vocation program. Originating Sundav morning discussions ami Sunday eve- ning vespers, the Christian Associations were of course back of the Spiritual Emphasis week during which Dr. and Mrs. Hornell Hart led lectures and discussions. Social revolu- tions caused by this week resulted in the famous Sadie Hawk- ins week, day student corral, faculty frolic, and Irish night cKib, besides a publication screaming forth the startling cam- pus news.

When worldly cares grew heavy, the cabinets of both groups retreated to some secluded spot for communion with food and nature, sometimes actually losing themselves in nearby jungles. The Y. W. C. A. and the Y. M. C. A. are desperately active groups, probably accomplishing more, apart from the actual educational program, than any other student organiza- tion. Special words of gratitude should go to Dr. and Mrs. Bcittel who so eagerly and thoughtfully assist and encourage Y work.

This year the paper was used as a laboratory for the newly-added journalism course, which increased the spice and variety of its four pages. Feature editors were grateful to students who provided humor and gossip enough to avoid excessive clipping from other sources. Although apparently unconscious of same, the Guiljordian suffered this year its silver anniversary of spreading glad tidings, and looks toward a polished future notwithstanding the competition of radio and the Y Gazette. iS ' SSSSSSSSSsS.

Through the efficient efforts of Miss McColl, archery, badminton, riding, modern dance, and golf have been made available to Guilford co-eds. Each sport is represented on the athletic council by a manager, who attends to tournaments, tallies points towards letters, and encourages participation. Points are given for membership on the council and teams, and for practicing a stated number of hours, i ,000 points being required for a numeral, and 1,500 or a monogram. Although Guilford women have enjoyed play days with other schools, they have no actual intercollegiate program, and therefore their contests are between classes, dormitories, and indi- viduals, according to the sport. May Day is planned through the W. A. A. so that every young lady participates, and the last quarter of physical education is used to practice dances for same. Sponsoring supper hikes fiir women only, the association promotes good will and congenialitv among the girls. HOCKEY Hockey staggered through another season char- acterized by numerous ties and replayed games. At long last the juniors, for the first time in their organized existence, wrung a more or less reluctant championship from the other eager con- testants, to the calliope tunes of the Beechies Traveling Circus across the road, proving you can t keep swing out of anything. (Maybe that ' s why the Quaker lassies play a hockey game that bears a delicate resemblance to golf.) The teams, captained by Fiedeldey, Gaunt, Hill, and Peters, seemed equally balanced and played ferociously close contests, which, however, showed a definite need for more team practice and team cooperation. The Guilford girls also enjoyed two hockey play days, one at W. C. U. N. C. in Greensboro, and the other at Duke. At the latter the girls were coached by Miss Constance Applebee of England, well known coacher of coaches, and there also two of our girls were placed on the state teams chosen from Duke, Salem. Meredith, W. C. U. N. C, and Guilford. The game with the alumni as well as the Founders vs. Mary Hobbs game went off as was to be expected. The alumni, even though (or perhaps, because) they were aided by several un- dergraduates, went down to defeat, and Mary Hobbs again triumphed over Founders. BASKETBALL Basketball was offered in the physical education curriculum only by request this year and therefore the majority of its action took place in tourna- ment form. Those amazing amazons, sometimes known as reniors, ambled through to victory with an ease that made their opponents seem mildly impotent. Said seniors, who have triumphed in this field ever since their timid arrival at college four years ago, won over their younger sisters by scores of double, and in one case triple, strength. The contests ended with second, third, and fourth places held by the sophomores, juniors, and freshmen respectively. Captains, in same order beginning with seniors, were Wheeler, Edgerton, Palmer, and M. A. Jessup. Mary Hobbs again demonstrated her athletic superiority over Founders by winning with oppo- sition but no threat. Honorary varsity teams were chosen from the whole school, both in basketball and hockey, but they played no games. A greater interest in girls sports bv both sides of the campus was shown in the comparatively large group of spectators cheering madly on the sidelines, and in the juicy fruit served the panting players at the half. TENNIS Tennis this year inspired more enthusiasm among the women than ever before, possibly be- cause of the male tennis interest and the new courts. Both singles and doubles tournaments drew in an abundant supply of aspirants in the fall as well as the spring. Of great consequence were the mixed doubles contests which terminated with Wheeler and Petrea on top; not without opposi- tion, however. Gym classes for beginning and intermediate tennis added to the variety of the gym program and encouraged outdoor exercise. Badminton, included in physical education this year for the first time, also attracted a large number of participants. Although both types were played, indoors and out, racquet badminton was favored over that using a paddle, and a ladder as well as a tournament aroused emulation among the maidens. Attempts were made towards a mixed doubles strife, but spring and tennis inter- rupted to its suspension. A milder form of tennis was stimulated in ping pong struggles which were managed in a similar manner, although without class instruction. ARCHERY Individual enjoyment was found in archery with opportunity for practice given usually four times a week. The future looks bright for the merry archeresses, since this is merely the second year of bowing at Guilford, and already several of them have hit the target. A few of these self-styled Indidans attended a play day at Chapel Hill to represent archery, along with others who went for tennis, badminton, and swimming. RIDING Ridmg opened its second season drearily because of unwelcome precipitations from heaven until spring blossomed forth with glad weather. Mak- ing use of the Sedgefield Riding Academy nine miles hence, the braver females climbed laboriously upon their trusty steeds and bounced joyfully over the trails, even after two of their number suffered tail spins and three- (maybe more) point landings. The horses proved quite tolerant, and were en- tertained on a supper ride in the more intimate stages of acquaintanceship. Besides class rides two afternoons a week, Sun- day morning jaunts temprano dragged both kinds of animals from their azure-lidded dreams to fresh dawn exertions, and proved fallacious the indispensability of sleeping late upon that day. i v ' --- Lois Wilson Dorothy Carson THE MAY COURT Miss Caiherine Beitiei., Mny Ouiin Miss Eunice Holloman, Maid of llnnor Emii.v C ' ieaver Cora Wukjii I ' arker MAR-i PRISCU.I.A Bl.Ol ' CH Adei.aiiie Fiedeloev Helen Douglas Gloria Leslie DANCING In the second year of the Modern Dance Club, its members made stabs at originating dances, and practiced to percussion once a week in the discus- sion hut. They kept informed of happenings in the world of modern dance and attended recitals of several famous dancers. Led by Betty Locke, the club assisted Miss Mc- Coll in planning this year ' s May Day. Based on a Colonial theme, with historic note added in Dolly Madison, whose birthplace is nearby, the performance had woven in to it English Quakers, immigrants from other lands who settled on this territory, and Indians and Negroes. Consequently, wide variety was obtained in the colorful dances discharged upon the green. An Irish jig, an Indian foxtrot, the highland swing, and a pickanniny shuffle were among those lightly skipped before the May Queen, her court, and other awed spectators. Each dancer made her own costume under the supervision of a costume committee with delight- fully amazing results. Men were used in the May Day services for the first time as more than decorations for the court, since they had proven their artistic abilities in several separate celebrations heretofore. The Queen, elected by popular vote, was Cath- erine Beittel, and the Maid-of-Honor, Eunice Holloman. MEN ' S ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION James McDonaid Prrsidinl Pali. Cuambkrs Stcrilary Ciiari.es D. Smith Family .Idvhor F. C. Shephard Faailly Manager COACH BLOCK SMITH The M. A. A. is the peak of the Men ' s sports pyramid and controls all their athletic activity. With Coach Block Smith as spon- sor, a Faculty Committee on Athletics acts as adviser to the ass ociation council made up of tlu- captains and managers of each sport. More students participated in athletics this year than ever before. Practically every male student played in a varsity or section game, and those not playing were enthusiastic spec- tators. Coach Smith has been the pushing power behind the forward movement of Guilford athletics. He has encouraged a more whole- some and cooperative attitude in sports and built up the intramural program. Vith new tennis courts now in use, and the promise of a new gymnasium within the year, the future for athletics is promising. FOOTBALL. 1938 SEASON With the largest aggregation in years turn- ing out for practice and twelve lettermen return- ing for the 1938 football season, Guilford entered her toughened schedule with surging hope. Unassisted, Coach Block Smith sent the three local teams through practice after practice, welding as fast as possible the great supply of green recruits into a thing new to them — a college team. Varsity positions, although shifted many times during the season, include: Lettermen Algie Newlin, Frank Fondren, Sophomore Bill French, and Freshman Ed McMillan at MANAGER HINES H ' T r right end; Letterman Jim McDonald at right tackle; Letterman Bob Wilson at right guard; Letterman Harry Nace at center; Letterman G-Man Boles at left guard; Letterman Wil- son Byrd at left tackle; Lettermen Buck Hines, Newlin, and Freshman McMillan at left end. The fullback was Letterman Bill Grice, while the other backs were Lettermen Paul Lentz, Paul Chambers, and OUie Acree, and Les At- kinson. Special emphasis was placed upon blocking, tackling, and pass defense. And Coach Smith and Guilford saw their team come over the top at Spartanburg, owever, the night High Point joust was a game we really should have won, not merely tied. Although the score turned in was 6-0 at the Lenoir-Rhyne battle, Guilford played its best ball of the season that day. The team was clicking as it had never quite done before; the fighting spirit cut high. Grice, Acree, Byrd, Wilson, Hines came through. A water-soaked held handicapped the homecoming game with the East Carolina Pirates. A pass from Acree to Lentz accounted for the Quaker touchdown. Byrd ' s kick, knocked down by a Pirate, was snatched up by McMillan who stepped over the line for the extra point. Most sensational play of the game was Freshman Larry Menghetti ' s twisted and spun run for 15 yards to the oppon- ent ' s 30-yard line. Elon found the Guilford defensive the best THE SQUAD CO. CAPTAIN BYRD CO-CAPTAIN CH it had been during the season. Byrd, Hines, and Teddy Mills accounted for the unusual strength. Acree, star of the Turkey Day classic, made the only threat against the Christians when he intercepted a pass behind his own goal line, ran through the entire secondary of the opponent ' s backfield, side-stepped the safety man, and was brought down from behind deep in enemy territory. Playing their last game that November 24 were Lettermen Boles, Fondren, Acree, Byrd, Chambers, and McDonald — all first-class grid- men. Thus both tackle posts for 1939 are minus returning lettermen, but the performances of Deaver Shell and Lee Bartley during the 1938 season indicates that they can fill this bill. Nor- man Fair, freshman this year, is slated for a position at guard or tackle, and the good play- ing of first-year men Freddy Taylor, Perrine Bilyeu, and Howard Adams has been recog- nized. BASKETBALL With only four of last year ' s squad reporting this year, the basketball call enticed a number of freshmen and several new upperclass recruits. Lettermen returning were Captain Paul Chambers, Buck Hines, and Snag Hartley. Although the lack of veteran men caused diffi- culty in the beginning of the season, toward the end, especially after the week ' s trip, good coordina- tion of plays and team work was apparent. Chambers, sharp-shooting forward, was at his best during the W. C. T. C. game, scoring 1 1 points. Snag Hartley, junior, was frequently Guilford ' s offensive star, and Freshman Larry Menghetti did outstanding floor and pass work. Other promising 1940 ' s include: Hire, sopho- more; Jack Hartley, Y. M. C. A. All-Southerner; Parker, High Point center; Schlotzhauer, guard, from Friend ' s Academy; Denham, forward; Lind- say; Shell; Pickett; Summey. Deficiency in equipment has for some time been a handicap to basketball, and fans also have found the barn a precarious and drafty place to wit- ness hoop contests. The new gym is expected to increase interest in and enthusiasm for basketball so that the 1940 season should bring forth an eager group of candidates for the coach to mold into a winning team. MANAGER STROUD SPECTATORS PHILLIPS Head Cheerleade t m)m,it£ --.- BASEBALL Seven lettermen back on the job bucking up Guilford ' s 1939 baseball team have served to make an exceptionally well-manned outfield. Harry Nace, Paul Lentz, and Wilson Byrd, backed up by Bill Grice, are the outfield vet- erans. Buck Hines is again slated to hold down first base, while Jimmy Phillips and George Summey are competing for the second- sack position. Last year ' s veteran, Rom Graves, will probably cover third, alternating between this position and the mound. Great interest has been shown by the patches of onlookers at the practices in the abundance of pitchers who are struggling with the job of hurling the old pill. Veterans Ollie Acree and Joe Carter are backed by a promising reserve group that includes: Deaver Shell, Jack Lind- say, Lewis Leach, Bob Nolan, Dean Pike, Charley Jennings, and Garland Murray. Shell has already been spotted as an unusually effi- cient hurler. Alton Blair and Bill Denham — the only two who have reported to fill the vacancy at short- stop — and Dick Nelson, who shows all the signs of being a first-rate backstop, are all first-year men. Freshman Larry Menghetti and Sopho- more Algie Newlin complete the catching staff. Working under Coach Smith, finest baseball pilot in the North State Conference, the 1939 ball club is becoming a serious threat in its league. CAPTAIN ACREE MANAGER LAUTEN TENNIS TRACK Swinging out with a flasli ot racquets, the ( rim-on net men for 1939 have earned the rating of being the best Guilford tennis team in six years. Captain-Man- ager Jim Bowman along with Hughes Davis, Howard Petrea, and Ken Morris, form the lettermen, while two brilliant freshmen players, Don McAuslan and Stokes Rawlins, along with Ed CJehrke and Reuben Ford also hold important spots. McAuslin and Raw- lins were the finalists in last fall ' s tournament which McAuslin won. In addition to the top notch personnel, ad litii ns have been made to the equipment — biur new home courts were put in use this spring. Although losing the first match to Davidson, the team quickly rallied to defeat Loyola, and a winning season is prophesied. The ladder was used to decide positions of players who were frequently forced to defend their places from challengers. With only six lettermen — Paul Lentz, Ken Morris, . Mvin and Winfred Meibohm, Charles Lindley, and Bob Smith — plus a sprinkling of freshmen, tJuilford ' s 1939 track team is facing their meets under a handicap due to shortage of man power. First scheduled joust found Wake Forest the winner, Guilford not being able to enter in some of the events. The second meet of the season, also to be run on Hobbs Field here, comes on . ' pril 14. It is a triangular meet with Catawba and High Point. May 5 brings the season to a close with a meet at Hampton-Sidney. Co-Captain and manager, Alvin Meibohm, who came in third in the two and one-half-mile, non-conference division of the tenth annual University of North Caro- lina indoor track meet in February, is expected to again be the consistent cinder star. Stuart Aiston is also slated to show up well in the Quaker races. r r5 • e ' J 4 I- n TT? ---rr m f ' ' ' Pal Mf , , vl fA K£ « ' -,;?m: : ! i CROSS COUNTRY After losing its first two meets, the Guilford cross-countrv team displayed its power and won the next three in record-breaking time. Victims of the speedy crew were the U. N. C. reserves, who, although the winners in a previous meeting between the two teams, were no match for our boys ' on- day. Davidson, third in the annual Southern Conference run, was defeated twice by this group of iron-gutted gents, both on their own course and on Guilford ' s. Captain Alvin Meibohm, unbeaten this year, set a new record for the local course, when, against Davidson, he ran the three and one-tenth miles in 15:39. Later he cut 34 seconds more off the previous record which had been set by a State man two years ago to make it in 5:05. Loss of Mei- bohm, who is a senior, will be keenly felt next vear, not only for his excellent running, but also because his leadership and coaching was in large measure responsible for the success of the team. Along with Captain Meibohm, Stew Aiston, Percival Moir, Wimp Meibohm, Lin White, and Merle Pickett received letters. Other faithful runners who trained and allowed the above mentioned to pass them were a great encouragement to the team. INTRAMURALS Highlight of the winter months have been the intramurals — or as they are officially known, the 1939 Boys Intramural Basketball Tournament and the Intramural Volley Ball Tournament. A crowded gym watched upset after upset occur with an enthusiasm which put to shame the intercollegiate games. After a bad beginning, Center, twice the champs, broke through Old South ' s, Old North ' s, and Archdale ' s defenses and in an exciting wind-up reached the trophy. A new system of playoff was inaugurated this season whereby the top four teams are cut to two — the team in first position play- ing that in third, the one in second, that in fourth — and then in the final game to one. The first trophy in Guilford ' s intramural basketball history was given by Coach Block Smith to stimulate intramural competition. Sponsored by the Y. M., the volley ball tournament found a faculty team competing for the first time in history. Finalists in this tournament were the Faculty, Center, and Old North. Old North captured the crown.
