I must say that strict is a good thing, no doubt. You need to look at the my function. my will let you define a scope for your variables. This means that the varaible will not be visable to the code outside the current block (beit a sub, main::, etc ...) Something like :
sub values{
    my @X = ("something","something");
    return(@X);
}

Then, instead of treating @X as a global, it is returned by &values(). Think of it this way, if someone saw the code, and not the subroutines, could they figure out where @X came from ? If the answer is no, then you probably have a global. So, using the values sub above, you could say :
my @vals = &values();
&guest(@vals);  ## i assume it uses this ? maybe not
&giest2( @vals, 'test');

Hope that gets you started on the right path ... 
$ perl -e 'do() || ! do() ;'
Undefined subroutine &main::try
