VOLUME II GREENSBORO, N. C. JANUARY 10, 1920 NUMBER 14
REGULAR MEETING OF
ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION
BIO HIKES PLANNED.
A-C-D
INTER-SOCIETY DEBATE
DEO. 18, 1919.
On Tuesday, Jan. 6, the Athletic
Association held its first regular
meeting of this year. The entire
time was used for reports and busi-ness.
It was announced that volley
ball teams would be picked soon.
But the main feature of the meeting
was the plans for hiking during the
winter and spring. The following
plan was submitted:
For general hikes, there will be
two hikes a week. For each group
of ten there will be a captain proba-bly
chosen from the Junior or Se-nior
class. The hikes will be in
any direction except toward town
and on Spring Garden street. Hikers
must wear low heel comfortable
shoes, not slippers, and must wear
sweaters or coats during cold weath-er.
The captain will be repsonsible
for her group. She will keep a rec-ord
of the number of miles each girl
takes. So many miles will count a
certain number of points for each
girl in the Athletic Association point
system. The records for the classes
will also ge kept and that class mak-ing
the best record in hiking will re-ceive
a certain number of points
toward winning the cup on Field
Day.
Scheduled hikes will be on Wed-nesday
and Friday p. m. at 5 o'clock;
but if any group or part of group
and captain wish to go more than
two days, they may do so. If hikes
are arranged they will be for the
purpose of hiking and sight seeing.
Hikes will start with short distances
and will gradually become longer.
For those girls who cannot take long
hikes, regular short ones will be
planned).
It is hoped that special long hikes
may be taken in the spring.
A hikers' camp supper or picnic
Is planned for the spring. Also a
contest to test the speed of ithe hik-ers.
The girl who makes the best rec-ord
in hiking will be the champion
hiker and if possible a prize of some
kind will be offered.
These plans will be definitely
worked out and it is hoped that
hikes may be started soon, so that
good practice may be gotten while
the weather does not permit hockey.
Are you interested) tin hiking?
Then join the Athletic Association,
for only members may go on these
hikes.
Saturday evening, Dec. 13, 1919,
the members of the three societies
and a good many guests enjoyed! an
interesting discussion of the immi-gration
question, the subject of the
Inter-Society Debate. Marjorle Men-denhall
and Ruth Vlck, Cornelians,
presented a strong line of argument
but were defeated by Elizabeth
Smith and Charlie May Cridlebaugh,
Adelphians. This was the final trial
for the Bernau cup.

DR. FOUST ADDRESSES
STUDENTS WEDNESDAY
Wednesday at chapel period Dr.
Foust read the parable of the tal-ents.
He explained that never be-fore
in our memory have we found
this country in such chaos. One
thing that stands out in the life of
the individual is his struggle for
rights. He believes that these prob-lems
will be solved favorably, but
many things worry us now. Dr.
Foust said, in his opinion, we would
get along better if Americans placed
more emphasis upon their duty in-stead)
of their rights and privileges.
We are placed here with certain re-sponsibilities
and privileges. If we
consider this we will improve our
life and also the lives of those about
us.

THE MESSIAH A SUCCESS.
A large number of (townspeople
as well as college students took ad-vantage
of the rare opportunity of
hearing Handel's great Messiah,
given under the direction of Mr-
Brown, on the night before the col-lege
closed for the holidays. The
solo parts were sung unusually well
by Mrs. Brown, atto, Miss Wilcox,
soprano, Mr. Fred Patton, bass, and
Mr. JUdson House, tenor. The well
organized work of the college chorus
added much to the success of the
Messiah and proved the ability of
Mr. Brown as a director. Everyone
is now eagerly awaiting the per-formance
to be given in the spring.
WELCOME!
We are delighted to welcome into
our midst about fifty-six new girls.
About eight of this number are
taking the commercial course, while
the others are pursuing the regular
academic courses, or doing special
work. We are glad to have these
girls here, and we wish them every
joy and) success in their work.
