ALMA MATER Kindly light our fathers kindled, ' Midst primeval oak and pine. Let thy radiance, tmth revealing, Now upon our spirits shine. Sacred memories, through the archways Of the swiftly passing years. Still undimmed, dear Alma Mater, Strengthen us, dispel our fears. So, our hearts and voices joining, Echo Guilford ' s ancient fame. Hallowed be thine each endeavor, Hallowed be fair Guilford ' s name. Russell Pope. w m. ■• ' •■ .

J While Christmas — the liltitiji theme of the junior dance — will bring to many its flow of memories in the years to eome. But the juniors will remember the difficulty of procuring an orchestra, the almost impossible feat of giving cedars the appearance of gleaming snow with plain down-to-earth water and flour, the horrible mess of the morning after, and the contented feeling of a task well done. As memorable as the Christmas dance was the star spring attraction, the junidr-senior lian- quet. Soft lights, yellow tulips, laughter, and warm friendship did their part to make this banquet something special in the endless line of junior-senior affairs while giving Dr. ictorius a chance to present his junior speech. We pause a moment, in remembrance of a quiet personality which radiated strength and courage through music and friendship — our friend, Wilma Knight. 19 First roic. left to right: Limiic iiginia Asluraft.

STUDENT AFFAIRS BOARD This year, as al va s. the Stuck ' iit Aflairs Board kept its eagle eve upon the organizations under its direction, weeding out ineligibles and watching budgets. A new policy was inaugurated during elections, by having leaders of campus organizations announce their candidates and dis- cuss the (lualilications needed for the iiositions. The new budget was presented in iliapcl. and was approved by the student bodv. The Board attempted to distribute fairly the money available to the organizations. Cuts were made in the less active groups, while in some cases allotments were increased, in recognition if wartime price increases. t 28 B. A. Anderson. Taylor. Clark. C. Stanfield. Key. lliiber.

STUDENT GOVERNMENT President Mary Belle Clark led the chosen few whose duty it is to guide the girls along the straight and narrow path and enforce penalties on the backsliders. They wrestled with the smoking problem again, but didn ' t succeed in laying the ghost satisfactorily. After going over the rules and the constitution, they decided to weed out the obsolete ones. The Council is con- sidering putting out a handbook of all rules, which will be a boon to bewildered freshmen. The girls rose to the occasion when January and semester exams arrived by serving mucli- wclcomed tea and cookies in tlie afternoons. Tiie boys were captained by f ve Stanfield, who attempted to continue the policy of settling till- pri ])li ' nis wliicli arose individually, rather than bringing them up in formal student govern- ment meetings. With an enrollment of less than .50 boys, the new Student Govermnent was com- paratively inactive. 29 YWCA and YMCA Hwher. SwisluM. Miller. K.-y. R e i (1. Ekernlh. Wright, Miles. Lelir. Crnwiier.

Committee chairmen were Helen Lewis and Barbara Williams, espers: Pat Lockwood. Social Service; Margery Huber and Roberta Reid. Publicity; Anne Schneider, Membership: and Deedie Swisher, representatixe to the interracial commission. These chairmen attempted to use as manv of the Y members on their committees as was possible, so that the members of the Christian organizations might feel that thev were not a .-eparate group from that of the Cabinet. Open meetings were held the first Monday of each month, when ' members attended the Cabinet jneetings. It was through the efforts of the Cabinet that a new bulletin board was procured. The presidents encouraged attendance at con- ferences, and under their leadership seventeen Cuilfordians attended the conference on Ad- ventures in Applied Christianity held at Salis- iiurv in the fall. Ill the s]M ing the Caliinets held their aimual lireakfast retreat, at which animal reports were made by the committee chairmen, and the new presidents.

As a result, there has groun up on campus an ir- ganization, small in numbi ' rs, but rich in ex- perience, organized and conducted according to the practice of a Friends ' meeting. The group meets every other week to discuss some phase of Ouakerism or related subjects of intere.-t to them. They fee! that these meetings have added much to tiieir spiritual li es. and have been a great help in ac(|uaiMting them with their own meetings. In March, liie oung Friends joined with Young Friends Ironi other Yearly Meetings in h(dding a conference on the campus. The con- ference was a great success, witii such leaders as Elbert Russell. E.

The play is a delightful story of mistaken identity, and the furor caused by one hesitant, befuddled aentleman. Mr. Pim. John Barnex. in the title role, provoked many a laugh.

Tliere lias, for some lime, been a growing concern in the minds of some of the members of the organization, that the club was nol reaching as many stu dents as il should. So, with the able assistance of Miss Aitken the otlicers ibis veai ha ( ' attemiiled [o plan programs which Would be of ital interest to the meniliers. The new program policy is to have one meeling a month a formal program in the auditorium, open to the entire student bod , such as the very successful piogram of modern music given in March. The oilier meeling each month is to he an informal one, somewhat like the St. Patrick ' s I Un meeling planned by Miss Aitken. 41 Social Committee nr:i.i-luiu. liiillurk. Miller. Sapj). RiiliiTi iin.

Old timers coming back to see New Garden Hall will find their eyes bugging out in astonish- ment at new, modern Mary Hobbs — the kitchen, especially. Mrs. Bardwell receives credit for this. Times being the way they are, remodeling isn ' t the easiest thing in the world. When we leave; when we have received our diplomas and degrees and have gone our wa) s in the wide world, we will remember the far-oil cry, Man in the hall! — and the concerted rush to said hall. Or we will wake with a start at f :2() witli tlic night-mare feeling that we have to get up and cook this week. We will look at our sagging figures and think wistfully of Phys. Ed. and the gracefulness of us all as wc tore around the basketball court. We will sigh and dream over the days at Mary lldbbs — jam sessions after ten (angry proctors I , or the pounds of grapes you and your roomie consumed to keep down your weight, or the orgies of house cleaning (compulsory) before vacation, and total collapse thereafter, or exam week, or the congregation around the ironing board: Can I ha e the iron after you?

Or the benches on the side of tlie |iorch — wonderful places for two girls to rest ot an evening after a strenuous day of studying. Mary Hobbs has been, is, and will be — as long as there is a Guilford — the place its residents think of first when they remember college life, because it has given them somehing nothing else can take away. To some, it was a place to release llifir repressed personalities, to otliers, tlie ])lace where ihey met. dated, and courted their fuluif husbands.

Anticipation is the word of the day. Then conies graduation, and worries such as ' Will my roommate and I get along together at college? ' Will I be able to eat the food? Will 1 like the college I have chosen? The transportation to college for the class of 17 was very discouraging, but worst of all was arrixiiig in Greensboro, suddenly to realize we had made no definite plans as to whom we were to meet at the station, and where. Even for sophisticated New Yorkers, Greens- boro station assumes the proportions of Grand Central in moments of confusion. We were tired — all we remember is liorniuing bedclothes, pillows and beds: and a iiaze of new faces as we greedily consumed the food and drink offered us. Bang! — Founders ' Hall bell. It took exactly one ringing for us to realize that bells at Guil- ford College meant food — and one other thing: classes. The following week was crowded with new experiences such as registration, matriculation. Chapel pro grams I wonderful ones I, inspiring lectures by Dr. and Mrs. Milner, campus hikes, sings on the Library steps — every moment was iircupied. but not one with lonesomeness. We all seemed In lie li ing in a second adoles- cence for there wasn t anything that a Frosh at Guilford College couldn ' t handle. But we realized that Freshman eek at (iuilford College is the Freshman Vieek. 44 Freshman-Sophomore Day The first bell for iMcaklast rings. aTid alarms go ofT, just as on any other peaceful Saturday morning. But what are those yells and shrieks? We open our door cautiously and peer around ihc ciirner. There goes a freshman, whizzing by with unusual ambition for so early in the morning. And here comes a sophomore, with a pair of shoes and some polish in her hands. Oh. yes! The DAY has arrived. Now the children who had blissfully thought all year that every- body was their friend, learn the awful truth. They are ' encouraged to clean rooms, wash clothes, shine shoes, and attend to the thousands of other tasks the kings-for-a-day ha e been saving up for weeks. But classes must go on, and the freshmen go S(]ueaking to theirs, bouing lo all the sopho- mores, and taking tlir stairs in llirii liarkward strides. They (juake in their boots as they stare at the handwriting on the wall — the sign on the bulletin board which anncimices the dress for the events of the afternoon.

GRADUATION DAY Warm May morning sun Mrnils with the quiet peacefulness of the campus to make a perfect setting for graduation. The long line of serious black-gowned strangers, who yesterday were wildly dashing here and there putting finishing touches on theses and furiously cramming for exams they just had to pass, is preceded by white- clad marshals. The choir sings a number which will always have a prominent place in the memory of the years at Guilford. The com- mencement address, a wise lecture, wliicli some hear and heed, is to others nothing more than a final third period. Yet to all, whether they remember it or nnt. it is something whirli casts a spell for a lirief imur. With a friendly smile and a firm handshake. Dr. Milner sends each senior frcjm Guiifunl [n fare the future. With each graduate go the IjcsI wishes of students and faculty. This is graduation day. 50 HERE UNFETTERED SCIENCE MEETS WITH PENSIVE ART Memories of Guilford will always incluiie thoughts of a all building nestled at the foot of d. the slope beyond West Porch. The red bricks are covered with ivy. and the door is open-- I s wa.ped. The path is mnddy and the windows are usually dirty. But with.n. the comfortable sofas, the polished maple tables, and ' the fire create an atmosj-here which warms the soul as well as the feet, and rests mapl the mind as we lis the l)odv. Here . . . Unfettered Science meets With pensive Art, And bids the Seeker Find the Whole. Of which all Thought and Tongues Are but the lesser part. On a dt lishts aim and peaceful evening in the spring, one can see dark figures, outlined against the_ wiii( h spread their welcome far beyond the wind ow panes, converging in a spirit ot searching and seeking for the Whole. There is a meaning and a purpose to life, a Guilford, these ideas converge upon us, and are Integra one of our lives a new meaning and purpose.

Hockey and Soccer The girls liDckey field was tiansfdrmed iiilo a battleground during the fall, as the weaker sex turned out on three afternoons a week to do or die. After several weeks of intensive prac- tice, class tournaments began. When the dust had settled it was discovered that the sophomores were the victors with 8 points. The juniors traled with 7 points, the freshmen with 6. and the seniors with 3. In the annual alumni game the undergrads proved their superiority, as usual. A new feature of the season was the boys versus girls game. The boys won, but that didn ' t prove anything. Great excitement accompanied our invasion of W. C. later in the fall, where one team won 3-1 and the other lost 4-0. When we played hostess in a return engagement, we triumphed to the tune of 3-0. Honorary varsity Lit til ,,f the and second teams were chosen season. As the hockey season waned, a small con- tingent of athletic enthusiasts turned out to try their feet at a comparatively rough and un- known sport. Patiently, manager Maxine Ray explained the rules, and in half the time they were forgotten as a group of wild females tore across the field, screaming and shouting in their excitement. Many were the spills as a result of kicking the ball with both feet at the same time. At .5:45 they limped homeward with bruised shins, tired and dirty, resolving to down their opponents next time by brute force, if neces- sary. Result: the Junior-Senior team won o er the Freshman-Sophomore team 2-0. 53 ' •Mad St-r The Rfal Entliusiasts •■The Dele Girls ' Basketl)all Giiiirord lassies hi have much of the athletic spirit ill them played basketball this winter. Under the direction of ' Corky Parsons the girls played and played the game, for their physical education requirements and for the fun of it. The whistle was blown and the bail was given to the red or to the ' ■pinny team. Then would come the mad scramble for the ball. Sometimes there were good, quick passes. Long-worn gvm shoes slid on the slippery floor, and there were tumbles in almost every game. Signaling, cheer- ing, and snapping of fingers, the slapping of the ball in a jump-up, double-dribbles, traveling, the determined look on those do or die players; these were the characteristics of the Monday, Wednesday, and Friday practices. EITorts were made to perfect both long and short shots, and the guards took to zoning in order to stop the fast forwards. The regular classes had organized teams, and great was the excitement when the score was close between the N(jrth Carolinians and the Yankees. For the real enthusiasts there were practices in preparation for class and dormitory games. The freshman team, caplainrd b Juanita Young, won the touniament liy ca|)turiiig every game. Harriet Warlike. Juanita Young, and Mary Lee Macon would sink ' em. while guards Shorty ' Pancoast, Ailene Neal. and Carroll Fletcher gave able support. Sophomores led by Emily Smith took second place, after playing the freshmen twice. The tired-out juniors and seniors, led bv Mary Ellen Jordan and Boiibie Anderson, respectively, tied for the basement. Official scores were: Freshmen V. Sophomores l.i-L ' ?; 22-5 Freshmen v.

C. on tlie lotii, they defeated the visitors in two games. 54 Archery and Tennis ■■Oiif nl (;iiillni,|.. favmilc ' Thanks to Nancy Minor, we ' ve had archery this year. She ' s gathered together the girls who don ' t play hockey and basehall. and they ' ve gone out three days a week to try their skill at Robin Hooding. Arrows were lost now and then, naturally, but even looking for them was fun. Tennis courts are always a problem, especially when there is no one around to fix them. In the early spring, the courts near the gym were rather neglected, and attention was focused on those behind Mary Hobbs. so that Mrs. Parsons could have afternoon classes in one of Guilford ' s favorite sports. When warm weather came, they were used more and mcjre liy the ambilious ones, who were urged to sign up for a rallier laikadaisi- i: tdmnamciil.

For the first time in many years. Guilford was not represented by a arsity football team this season, but substituted a kill ' em brand of the grid sport that was highlighted in the final week of the season by a game between the Minks, cap- tained by Dave Stanfield, and the Snees, piloted by John Haworth. The contest, won by the Snees, 20-13, was thrilling in ever asped. and featured long runs l)v Ralph Zinuncnnaii of the winners, and little Eddie Hirabayashi of the losers. The Snees scored before five minutes bad elapsed, when Stanfiehl elected to run the l all rather than kick on f(jurth down, and failed to make it a first. From there, Zimmerman went over in three plays, starting on the Minks ' 3.5 yard line, and Hawortii ran the extra point. That spelled the ball game, as the Snees stayed ahead, despite spirited drives that paid off for the Minks twice, as Hirabayashi cut back behind (piick-forming interference for two scores. The Snees ' other touchtlowns came as Zinuner- man tlro e for one from the li e. and Haworth took a pass from Jerrv Schenck. good for thirtv- fi e ards. for a second. Only casualtv of the game was Randall Hoblis, who suffered a broken leg while playing half- back for the Snees, as the Minks threatened in a last-half scoring drive. f ' ln sical education for men this year has been under the direction of senior Mel Faulkner, who |nit on lag fnotball games, basketball, and soft- liall fur the members of his afternoon class.

There were a mere twelve candidates for the sport, and no prospects, it seemed, of a coach. But Dr. Newlin contacted Bob Jamieson, a Guilford graduate, and in short order the season was under way. with Coach Jamieson at the helm of a small and inexperienced, but determined and spirited group of courtmen. To Coach Jamieson we give our tiianks and praise for the fine job he did in shaping a fast unified team in a short time. The quintet, led by Captain Ed Ota and the outstanding pla ing of Eddie Hiraiia aslii. nlaxcd main a tlirilline game. The team was at its best as it Ijcal High I ' oint, 32-.

Howerton, Haworth, Aikawa. and Wright. Intra-mural basketball wrote another page in its traditional history history this year, as Center .Section met the combined forces of Old and New North in an aldjreviated tournament. The games were all both contested with numerous fouls and freak shots. Final score; were ail in favor ,,f Old and cu nrlb. K.-l.l. 1 . 1 I. and 21-20.

BASEBALL ' The Quakers play ball umler any conditions, apainst anybody, anywhere, and travel in any- thing. That sounds as if Guilford were lowering its standards of the past. However. Guilford is continuing athletics under the most trying cir- ( innstances which is certainly a credit to the prestige of the college. Dr. Miliier has told us that the fuliiie poliiv in intercollegiate sports vill be a continuation of the varsity program in so far as Guilford can support and equip teams. Last year, despite having lost every man from tlie preceding varsity, Guilford managed to put (111 tiie field an outfit which would be a credit to any institution, especially in these times. This year, the physical education has been under the direction of Dr. Newlin, and with no head coach, an enrollment limited to less than fifty men, and most of tlie other conference teams dropping intercollegiate sports, we have been able to put out only one varsity team — basketball. That we could turn out a basketball team which finished in third place, higher than any team in the last ten years, beating High Point for the first time since 1934, was entirely due to Bob Jamieson. Coach Jamieson, carrying the full coaching job at Greensboro High School, practiced with the team in the evenings, and with only one sub- stitute from last year built a winning team. This year, since there were not enough boys, we could not turn out a varsity baseball team. This is the only reason, however, that we haven ' t had one. This policy will continue, we know, in the succeeding years, and as long as Guilford men turn out, Guilford College will have varsitv sports. 59 60 r -. ■ ' W )rm Cbe eountries of tbe mind Cbe countries of tbe mind Cie close: Vou move in space or time Vet leave tbem not.
