Two months ago several representatives
of the Telephone interests
visited Auburn and offered
positions to a large number of
students, Electrical and Mechanical,
of the graduating class. Since
then important construction pro-jects
have been decided upon by
the A. T. & T. Company and as a
result Mr. J. A. Duncan of the A. T.
& T. Company was in Auburn
last Tuesday conferring with
Electrical students regarding positions
with his company. He
expects to offer additional positions'
to members of the Electrical
and Engineering classes.
Mr. Duncan is an Electrical graduate
of Auburn and since graduation
has been continously in the
telephone held. He has been stationed
at New York, Chicago, Charlotte,
N. C, and now has headquarters
at Atlanta. He is one of
the best known and competent telephone
engineers in the Southern
district.
"Green Stockings"
*-*.
Be sure and see "Green Stockings"
at Langdon Hall Thursday
evening, May 7th, at eight o'clock.
It is a very amusing, attractive and
interesting play. Come prepared
to have a good time. The scene of
the play is laid in England and revolves
about an engaged young
lady, who is not engaged. Her predicaments
and situations are full
of humor and interesting action.
The part of Miss Cela Faraday is
well taken by Miss Beth Siebold.
The; hero, Colonel Smith, is played
by Mr. T. W. Crump, the rest of
the cast is equally as good and all
parts' are well played. Come and
get rested and refreshed before
your exams. The proceeds go to
the Y. W. C. A.
There's small choice. If you lick
a little man, you're a brute; if you
don't, you're a coward.
On Monday afternoon, April 27,
the annual Confederate Memorial
Exercises were held in Langdon
Hall under the direction of the
United Daughters of the Confederacy.
Dr. Spright Dowell acted as
chairman for the afternoon giving
a short review of the purpose of
the exercises and introducing the
various speakers.
Following a selection by the orchestra,
Rev. Mr. Holmes conducted
the invocation. Mrs. Lipscomb
then rendered a solo, after which
Miss Frances Moore gave a reading
on "The New South." The orchestra
then rendered another
selection.
Dr. Dowell next introduced the
speaker of the evening, Mr. William
O. Walton of LaFayette. Mr.
Walton is a native of Alabama and
one of the best known lawyers of
East Alabama. He is also a member
of the State legislature and edited
of a newspaper. /
Mr. Walton in an eloquent man-er
reviewed the Revolutionary war
wfiich gave the United States her
independence and then""-stated the
great problem that gradually grew
up in the South, namely, slavery.
He then spoke of the memorable
valor of the North and South in the
war which followed paying great
tribute to the Great Generals of the
South. Especially was valor and
fidelity shown by the Southerners
at the end of the war when they
returned to their devastated homes
and began immediately upon the
reconstruction period. He stressed
the pride of the Southerner and
the many things for which he
could well be proud. Throughout
his address he paid great tribute
to the living and dead Confederates.
Following the address a solo
was sung by Mrs. McLeod. Major
Smith then pronounced the benediction
after which the assemblage
moved to the cemetery where a
salute was fired over the graves
of the Confederate dead by a company
of the R. O. T. C.
Just as the sun departed over the
hills taps were sounded and the
Confederate dead were left to sleep
in peace for another year until
another such occasion shall be
given in their memory.
Defeats Perdue and Texas
A. & M. Close Second
With Missouri
The pistol team added two more
victories to their list the past week
with victories over Purdue and>
Texas A. & M. The scores were
1950-1915 and 1618-1532. One
match was lost in Missouri by
a score of 2520-2498. The loss to
the Missouri was evened by a thirteen
point win over the five man
team in the National Match.
The high score man of the team
is M. B. Smith with a record of
396. The order in which the other
members stand is: W. B. Wood
(Capt.) 392; J. H. Reeves 292; Rat
Root 387; T. B. Wilder 383. The
team is doing work of the highest
order and if they continue to improve
Auburn will be in the first
division in the National Match.
The week-end matches to fre
fired this week are with Princeton,
Utah, Iowa, Oregon.

Prof Jones to Leave Auburn
SOCIAL COMMITTEE
GIVES NOTICE
The Auburn Players regret very-much
that Prof. Jones who has
been director for the past two
years is not to be back again next
year. Prof. Jones has left nothing
undone which would heip the
Players in any way. He is responsible
for the existence of the Attic
Theatre, the departmentalizing of
the club, and many other such progressive
steps. The Players are
deeply grateful to him for his
work.
Dr. Taylor, dean of the academic
department, has already secured
the services of a. man who
will take Prof. Jones' place nexj
year. At the last meeting of the
Players Mr. Hamilton was unani-i
mously elected director.
Mr. Hamilton is a graduate of
Carnegie Tech and has done graduate
work in dramatics there. Carnegie
Tech has one of the best
schools of dramatics in America.
Mr. Hamilton has also had experience
in acting, play writing and
the production' of plays. Several of
his one act plays have been produced,
by the Little Theatre. For
the past three years he has been
coaching plays in Pittsburgh. He
comes, to Auburn highly recommended
and well qualified to fill
the position. The Players expect to
continue the good work begun by
Prof. Jones under the leadership
of the new director.

was one of the most entertaining
exhibits seen in the Village in some
time. The program was spicy
throughout the entire evening and
the personnel of sixteen men picked
from the Glee Club, seven soloists,
and six blackface comedians
executed their parts well. The
jjfeistrcl was the work of local

REVIEWS R.O.T.C. UNIT
A, 1.1. E.E. Proposes
Engineering Publication
At the meetingl of the A. I. E. E.
on Wednesday, April 22, Mr. Garrett
brought forward a proposal
for an engineering paper to be published
jointly by the engineering
societies of the college. It was suggested
that this paper be made
along lines similar to that of the
Wisconsin Engineer, and the society
decided to refer the proposition
to the other engineering societies
for their consideration.
A film was shown illustrating
the manufacture of rubber insulating
material-and the insulation of
wire.
The commencement dances (Senior
Prom) will be held May 14,
15 and 16. Cards for registering
the girls have been placed in the

May Day will be celebrated with
the crowning of Miss Jennie Mcintosh,
teacher of domestic, science
at Lee County High School, as
queen of the May. Mrs. John Ivey
and Mrs. J. W. Tidmore have spent
much time in preparing the program
for May Day.
The story of the pageant "Spring
Time" is as follows: "Once in those
forgotten years when all the gods
were young, the goddess of season
summoned her court together,
summer, winter, fall and spring.
In playful mood she offered a ring
of unusual beauty to her whose
grace) and skill would most delight
her. The peaceful summer, the gentle
fall, the snappy winter, and the
dainty spring, all sued for her
favor. The goddess after much deliberation
bestowed the prize upon
the fairest season of all—spring."

"The cops are looking that guy
over.
"Do you think he'll pledge?"
The Village had as its guest last
L'hursday one of Auburn's greatest
benefactors, Erskine Ramsay. Mr.
Ramsay gave a talk at the upper-classmen's
convocation in which
he told something of the condition
of the resources in Alabama and
something of his personal history.
Mr. DM vis, ;m old Auburn football
man who is now an architect, and
Mr. Brown, a prominent business
man of Birmingham, were also
visitors. fiftw
After convocation exercises, the
party took lunch at Smith dining
hall. In the afternoon the local R.
O. T. C. unit gave a review in
honor of Mr. Ramsay.
Mr. Ramsay is one of the leading
engineeers in America. He is
responsible, to a great extent, for
the great development of industries
in Birmingham. Coming from
Pennsylvania at the age of twenty-two,
he was employed by the
Tennessee Coal Iron and Rail Road
Company as chief engineer. He was
with this Company about fifteen
years during which time he became
chief engineer of all operations.
He now controls a number "~-
of industries in the South.
His gift of one hundred thousand
dollars for the erection of
the Erskine Ramsay Engineering
Hall is a gift that all friends of Auburn
appreciate and will be a
great service to the State and to
the nation in training engineers
to take up the work in the great
field of industry.
HONOR SYSTEM CONSTITUTION READY
G. S. E. Election
Monday night the Gamma Sigma
Epsilon Honorary Chemical Fraternity
gathered its active members
together in Dr. Ross' office for
the purpose of electing their officers
for the coming school year
of 1925-26. Following closely upon
the election the embryo politicians
escorted the franchised members
to the Tiger Drug Store where they
were rewarded thankfully for their
support. The result was as follows:
Grand Alchemist—Russell Wilson.
Recorder—Lynn Dawsey.
Visor—C. R. Summers.
Chancellor—Vincent Scalco.
Wilsonian Meeting .
The Wilsonian Literary Society
held its regular meeting on Tuesday
night. The male quartette,
composed of six untuned voices,
rendered the melodious music for
the evening. Their special selection
was "Weep No More My Lady."
The other members on the program
were: Scripture Reading by Sudie
Dowdell; Life of John G. Sargent
by H. R. Bailey; Religious Turmoil
in France by C. H. Gantt; Electrifying'
the Farm by F. Cornelius,
and Current Poetry and Writers by
Clara Nale. Each speaker unveiled
many unknown facts to the members.
The president called for a
report of the social committee. In-the
absen^-Af-ft W. C-eel, chairman
of the committee, Bertha Ap-lin
announced that there would be
a hike on Fridsfy night, May 1. The
members of the society and their
dates will leave the Main Building
at 6:30 p. m., for a hike to the college
springs. The moon will be
right, the food good, and fun abundant.
Modern dances are in terribly
poor taste—if you can't dance
them.
"Feeling the need of a more effective
honor system, the Senior class,
several weeks ago, appointed a
committee to draw up a new constitution
with the hope that it
would improve conditions. The
committee drew up one form of
constitution and put it before the
faculty and student body for discussion.
After taking all discussions
and, suggestions into consideration,
the committee has
drawn up, to the best of their
ability, a constitution that they
hope will improve the honor system
in Auburn.
The^, Senior class recommends
this constitution to the student
body, as a whole, and will conduct
a ballot on it in the convocations
next week. The constitution is
posted in several places and is given
below so it will not be necessary
to read it in Convocation. Ev
eryone is urged to consider this
question carefully and be prepared
to vote next week.

ll.VE RIDGE
Each year several representatives
of Auburn attend the Y. M.
C. A. and Y. W. C. A. conferences
held at Blue Ridge. This conference
is valuable to the colleges of
the South in many ways. It is a
great force in creating good feeling
between the institutions represented.
The boys attending find
that students from their rival institutions
are not all bad as they
heard they were during football
season. The dining hall at Blue
Ridge is one of the best places to
bring about this friendship as the
delegations give yells for the other
colleges represented. It makes one
feel good to have the spirit of
cheering the other fellow. A second
great benefit is the good that
the individual gets out of the trip.
It is hardly possible for one to
spend ten days in a more wholesome
and Christian atmosphere.
Everyone attending has a high
purpose in mind, that of doing
something for the Christian side
of college life. A third but important
thing is the impression that
other schools get of Auburn. Practically
every school in the South
sends representatives so naturally
Auburn is belter known after the
delegates go back to their respective
colleges and remember how
the "War Eagles" rang out in the
dining hall.
Ten days at Blue Ridge is one
of the most valuable ten days that
a student can spend during the
summer months.
YOU SHOULD MAKE YOUR
PLANS TO GO.
FACULTY WHO'S WHO
MISS ZOE DOBBS
Hi! Hi! Hi- Langdon Hall will
soon have a new coat of paint on
the inside. This will be an improvement
that everyone will welcome
as we always want the historic
old hall to look the best possible
for our convenience and for the
impression that it makes on visitors.
It is something that has been
needed a long time and we hope
to see it soon.
Let us all hope, and cooperate,
and talk, and urge, and do everything
possible to try to stop the
filthy practice of spitttng tobacco
juice behind the radiators. Boys
who do this evidently do not think
at all or do not care at all about
sanitation. If such boys will just
think or get choked Langdon Hall
will be as it should be—a clean
good looking place.

Never has any newcomer so
quickly grown into the heart of
Auburn as has Miss Zoe Dobbs. In
the fall of 1922 she came to Auburn
to take the office of Social
Director in order to fill the growing
need for such a director among
the men and women students. Most
of the large northern universities
and, now, many of the southern
colleges have Social Directors, but
the position of Miss Zoe Dobbs is
a rather unique one as she has the
title" in a co-educational college.
Her work is, therefore, not only
with the women students, but irf
large part with the men of the institution.
In fact, a recent letter
received by her was addressed to
Miss Zoe Dobbs, Dean of Men.
Miss Dobbs came to Auburn
from Beaver College, Pennsylvania,
where she was Dean of Women
and Head of the English Department.
She has always been a student
and scholar and directly connected
with the teaching staff of
each institution with which she
has been associated. At. Galloway,
1919-1920, she was Dean of the
entire college, and at the same
time was actively engaged with
academic administration. From
1916-1919 she was Head of jthe
Department of English of Woman's
College of Alabama. Before that
time she had been prominent in
educational work in the State, having
held the chair of latin in the
Birmingham Seminary from 1905-
1911, having been principal of Jhe
Roanoke High School from 1911-
1914, and principal of the Talladega
High School in 1915-16. She received
her M. A. from the University
of .Wisconsin in 1916 and is a
rnember of the graduate school of
Columbia University, where she
completed .the residence requirement
for the degree of Ph. D. in
1921-22.
Her life has already been one of
service in the educational /work
of the State which can only be rewarded
by the deep love and appreciation
in which she is held
throughout Alabama. Her figure is
almost as well known in the State
as she and "Merc" are in Auburn.
Being the daughter of a Methodist
preacher and presiding elder; she
has lived in. a large number of the
towns and cities of the State. In
each of the towns the people feel
that they have an especial claim
upon her and think that she belongs
to them. Her brother is the
well known Bishop Hoyt Dobbs,
of the Methodist Episcopal Church,
South.
Since being connected with the
Alabama Polytechnic Institute,
Miss Dobbs has not inly fulfilled
all the duties pertaining to the office
of Social Director, but she1, has
taught several college classes in
English and in psychology, has
conducted college extension
courses in English, and has been
in demand as a speaker on many
occasions in cities throughout the
State. In 1923-24 she served, as
President of the State English
Teachers Association.
With the advent of Miss Dobbs
to Auburn, self government of the
women students was immediately
initiated. Since that time the Auburn
Women's Student Government
Association has become a member
of the Southern Conference of Women's
Student Government. The Y.
W. C. A. of the A. P. I, was organized
and has become affiliated with
the National Association; a State
conference of Y. W. C. A.'s has been
held at Auburn, and a general spirit
of fellowship pervades the women's
student body. The Women's
PanHellenic Council has been organized
and is now a factor in
sorority government and a system
of preferential bidding has been
adopted.
The administration of the Auburn
dances came under control of
the student social committee, under
the direction of Miss Dobbs
and the faculty social committee
and, as a result, an improvement in
dance floor conduct may be noted.
It is agreed that a degree of perfection
is not yet attained, but considerable
progress in that direction
has been made.
When Miss Dobbs was asked
what she appreciated most about
Auburn she replied that) it was the
cooperation and loyal support of
the Auburn students. She has always
been ready to help them and
do ail she could for them. She lets
them administer their own organizations
with only help and advice
from her. This is one reason why
they love her and realize her
worth'.
The personal influence ofJMiss
Zoe has meant much to the college
students. Her real interest in everything
which concerns them and
her eager sympathy with them,
make her a valued advisor and
friend. They admire her for her
scolarship, her intellectual sincerity,
and the fact that she lives
the psychology which she teaches;
they enjoy her for her wit, her interest
in others, and her versatility;
and they love her for her sympathy,
her clearness, of vision, and
her ability to "get the other fellow's
point of view."
—EMILY HARE.
NEW Y. W. C. A.
OFFICERS INSTALLED
The new officers of the Auburn
Y. W. were installed Sunday after
noon with an impressive service a'
the Y. W. hut. Soft music played

offe'red a prayer and then turned
ovor the duties of her office to Alberta
Proctor, lighting her candle
and changing places with her. All
new officers were installed by the
old ones in the same manner. When

Y. W. C. A. BANQUET
A delightful banquet was held at
the tea room Thursday night by the
Y. W. C. A. cabinet. Both new and
old cabinet members were invited
and 21 were present.
Mildred Lamar, chairman of the
cabinet ' relationships committee,
served as toastmistress and introduced
the different speakers. She
gave a talk of welcome. The whole
banquet was very informal and lots
of fun. Talks were made by several
of the old and new cabinet members,
and toy Susan Lipscomb, who
was the guest of the cabinets.
The acceptance of the Y. W. C. A.
torch was made in a lovely talk by
Alberta Proctor, the new president,
who replied to the talk of the old
president on "Handing on the
Torch". She accepted for the new
cabinet the challenge to follow the
gleam through vision, love and ser
vice. This banquet was held just a
few days before the time for the new
cabinet to be installed.

THE PLAINSMAN
LETS GO TO BLUE RIDGE
"THE LAND OF THE SKY"
HIGHEST POINT
EAST OF ROCKIES
Mount Mitchell 6711 Ft.
Above Sea Level
Mount Mitchell is situated 18
miles from Black Mountain, N. C,
35 miles from Asheville, 20 miles
from Blue Ridge Association
grounds. It is reached by a scenic
motor road of splendor, beauty,
grandeur and scenic magnificence,
and presents opportunity for a
wonderful journey to the top of
Eastern America, and a picturesque
mountain panorama on the journey
and at the top of Eastern America
or the endj of the trip, sunrise and
sunset can be seen as nowhere else
on this continent.
Aside from the stately mountain
splendor, which is not excelled
and seldom equalled in any country
on the globe, the ascent to, and
descent from Mount Mitchell,
which is 6,711 feet altitude, the
highest point east of the Rockies,
presents to the eye an ever-varying
panorama of plant life, nature having
seemingly wasted itself in a
riot of diversification. On every
side flower and shrub, bush and
tree, scatter a profusion of rich
color, lending pleasing varieties of
landscape.—Laurel.. anxL_rhododen-dron,
nourished! in the rich primeval
forests, and, fed by numerous
streams that wind their way to
the valleys, purling through the
luxuriant grasses, chattering over
the pebbles, cascading in a feathery
mist like a "downward smoke"
• i\f ifltMBfa'tl^^1" o v e r some sheer
precipice, everywhere displaying
their soft colorings of various hued
patterns as pretty as can be made
by millions of black-eyed Susans,
gleaming amid starry cosmos and
the larkspur of many tints against
the background of ferns, while
through all runs a gleaming of lichens
and mosses as a darker web
in nature's master tapestry.
In the lower altitudes tree life
is chiefly of magnificent oak and
spreading chestnut, while feathery
spruce and balsam predominate in
• the upper strech, over and undergrowth
of sweet-scented wild cucumber,
whortleberry and other
fruit-bearing plants. Indeed, the
constant change in colors adds
much to the beauty and is consid-
-ered by many as its chief attraction.
Visitors over the Mount Mitchell
Motor Road are always lost in enchantment
of the profusion of
mountain floral offerings that send
their gentle zephyrs through the
wooded slopes.
A picture of a trip to Mount Mitchell
can never be obliterated, and
always remains fresh in the memory
of those who have enjoyed
viewing this transcending panorama.
The most attractive scenic view
on the globe is obtained from the
top of Eastern America, the grand
sunset and sunrise from this point
is alone worth ten times the cost
of the trip.
The thousands who have visited
Mount Mitchell are loud and lavish
in their expressions*, of delight and
praise of the grandest scenic trip
on the globe, and never yet has
there been a visitor who has gone
to the top of Eastern America on a
bright day who failed to declare
the trip the greatest ever taken by
them.

one of the many thousands who
has taken the trip^said: "Switzer-tkies,

must get up if we are to get any
breakfast.
Breakfast over, we have time to
write a letter home, then "we go
early morning devotional, where
we get our inspiration to carry us
through the day. Now, we go to
various group meetings where we
may study and discuss those things
in which we are most interested.
Blue Ridge programs are planned
almost exclusively by students so
we find that the whole conference
is very democratic. After the
group meetings, Bible study and
quiet hour, we all gather in a general
assembly for an open forum
and to hear a big conference
speaker. At Blue Ridge men are
heard that will perhaps influence
our life destinies.
After lunch comes an afternoon
of recreation of which I am sure
you have heard;if you have talked
to a student who has been to Blue
Ridge)
Perhaps we get back from our
hike in time to dress for dinner,
but if not, we must go to dinner
in knickers, for at Blue Ridge one

Now we come to that beautiful
hour in the evening—Vesper. Gathering
on the front steps watching
the setting sun we sing Hymns,
Negro Spirituals, and many of the
songs so characteristic of the conference.
From here we go into
evening assembly.
There is something at Blue Ridge

the conference should give you inspiration

to make living worth while for a
year or years.—A "YW" Girl.

been among the delightful pleasures

A DAY AT
CHIMNEY ROCK
Only those fortunate ones who
have sojourned at the Robert E.
Lee Hall during recent years, and
who have taken the trip to Chimney
Rock, can fully appreciate the
lure of this most remarkable mountain.
Perhaps at no place east of
the Rocky Mountains has Nature
dealt with such lavish hand in the
formation of her eternal hills. The
uninitiated almost invariably think
of the Appalachian Mountains as
having easy, gentle slopes, well
covered with verdure; but rarely
indeed do we think of them as
possessing the rugged features
which characterize much of the
mountain scenery of the Rockies.
It is true indeed that most of the
mountains of the eastern chains
are more subdued in their outlines.
This by no means, however,
is universal.
The finest mountain scenery,
singularly enough, is almost invariably
at what has been called
"the break of the Blue Ridge." By
this is meant the steeper and more
precipitous conditions of the southeastern
slope of the Blue Ridge
Range, from Virginia to Alabama.
These precipitous conditions, however,
are at their best in North
Carolina, but at no place is the
cliff formation so gigantic and
awe-inspiring as in the Chimney
Rock country.
Chimney Rock is reached by an
excellent motor road but a few
hours' distant from Black Mount-tain.
The finest scenery is probably
that stretch of country beginning
a' the crossing of the Blue
Ridge Range" on the "Wildcat Highway"
southeast of Asheville, on
down through Hickory Nut Gap,
thence up the private ro*1 to the"
very base of Chimney Rock itself.
Every turn of this fifteen miles of
highway—and the turns are well-nigh
continuous—reveals. UeW and
fascinating landscapes. The road
veritably doubles bae,k on itself
time and time again in its struggles
to maintain a grade sufficiently
easy to accommodate the modern
automobile. The trip is one of
unending delight. On and on tne
motorist travels, until at last the
car halts at a great parking place
literally blasted out of the face of
the cliff at the foot of Chimney

Y.M.C.A. STUDENT
CONFERENCE
For twenty-two years—as long
a:< most of the readers of this article
have sojourned on this planet
—the students of the South have
each summer turned th^ir faces
toward the hills and journeyed
thither for a ten-day period of refreshment
and change from the
grind of the college year. Until
1911 the conferences were held in
a number of places in or near the
mountains of North Carolina and
Tennessee. In 1912 the Blue Ridge
Association opened its doors and
was dedicated to its career of service
to the South by the conferences
of the college Y. W. C. A. and
Y. M. C. A. Since that year this spot
has become the shrine for the students
of the South.
Of; the eight or nine conferences
held each summer on these
grounds we are primarily concerned
with the Southern Students'
Conference of the Y. M. C. A., held
this (year during ten days, June 16
to 25. This conference draws delegates
from the ten Southern
States.
This territory includes some
150 or more colleges and preparatory
schools with men students.
There is a total enrollment of approximately
50,000 men in these
universities and colleges with
some two or three thousand faculty
men. In all this territory the Southern
Student Conference is the
only region wide conference for
training and inspiring the leadership
for Christian work among this
host of undergraduates and professors.
To this conference come representatives
from the student bodies
and faculties of every type of
college in the region. This includes
State Universities, State Technical
Schools, Medical, Dental, Law,
Theological and other Professional
Schools, Denominational Schools,
Independent Colleges and Universities,
Secondary Schools, Preparatory
Schools and, even students
who have just graduated
from High School and are looking
forward to entering college.
The students and professors
who go to this conference are always
chosen because of their manifested
interest in the best things
in college life. They are always
the men who on their own campus

THE SPIRIT OF
BLUE RIDGE
What Blue Ridge Means to Me
By Herman H. Home, University, N. Y.
It means memories and friends.
It means boys and girls and
Christian idealism and Southern
cordiality.
It means a climb u p t h e mountain
arid a descent into the v a l l e y -
vision and service.
It means earth's prose transmuted
into heaven's poetry.
It means folks who are what
they ought to be, or nearly so.
It means faith in others, in self,
and in goodness.
It means the high spot so far in
spiritual experience.
It means questions answered,
problems solved, lives changed and
dedicated.
It means self-discovery and self-realization.
It means being liked for what
you would like to be.
It means a new personal label:
"I am a Blue Ridger." There are
tens of thousands of Blue Ridgers.
They belt the globe. To meet a
Blue Ridger again is to talk Blue
Ridge.
It means hearing a Voice calling
you.
It means what you would like
to say but can't. What did his vision
of Jehovah mean to Isaiah?
What did the Transfiguration of
his Master mean to Peter? What'
did the open heaven mean to John? ,
And it will mean, or may mean, \
if you will, something equally wonderful
and beautiful—4©- youl

New York. { i
can be counted upon to stand for
high moral and intellectual standards,
high athletic and social
.standards, and who are leaders in
the religious life of the school. It
is therefore in each pase a group
representing the best there is in
the life of the school.
If present interest is an indication
of the number of such delegates
who will be at Blue Ridge
this summer, it is fair to predict
that at least 100 schools and colleges
will be represented and that
there will be at least 500 delegates.
Each of the principal denominational
Boards in the South will
be officially represented because
the conference is interested in the
same things for which the church
stands. The program, outlined in
another place, was framed on a
co-operative scheme between the
Association and the churches and
several college pastors have already
indicated their purpose to
be present.
In addition to the leaders and
speakers indicated in these dol-uihns
there will be present also
the thirty local and State student
Secretaries of the ten Southern
States and several secretaries of
the National Council and State
committees.
PART OF LOCAL ACTIVITIES
The conference is a definite part
of the year's program of every local
student Y. M. C. A. Here the
administration of the retiring officers
closes with an account of its
achievements. Here also the new
administration of the elected officers
begins with the training of
the new leaders and the laying of
definite plans for the coming
year.
Meeting 500 of the choicest students
from the 100 colleges of the
ten Southern States; getting personally
acquainted 'with some of
the world's greatest thinkers and
speakers, and with all the student
Y. M. C. A. Secretaries of the
South, and representative denominational
leaders, and together
with this company working and
playing and thinking for ten days
will be an experience that vXill
leave a lasting impression on your
life.—Red and Black.

Every one thalj knows Auburn is
familiar with the Auburn spirit.
History tells us of the "spirit of
70", and we all remember how we
weie filled with the spi -it of Democracy
during the World War.
The spirit of Blue Ridge is another
spirit with which boys and
girls should become acquainted.
Words cannot convey the beauty,
the greatness, and the saeredness
of this spirit. It is a spirit.of love,
unselfishness, a'nd blended with
these is the wonderful spirit of
Jesus. In a few words, it is the
enjoyment of the "larger life."
This wonderful spirit is due in
part to the surroundings, since the
grounds are situated in one of the
most rugged and beautiful moun-fain
sections of North Carolina.
These gigantic works of Nature
seem to declare the glory of God.
The spirit of Blue Ridge draws men
upward, cleansing their thoughts,
raising their ideals and creating
within their hearts a desire to
live Jesus' way of life.
WHY BLUE RIDGE?
There's a reason. There are
three reasons.
1. Blue Ridge is the most delightful
spot I know in the North
Carolina mountains. It leans back
against the broad breast of High
Top and looks across the lovely
Swanannoa valley straight to the
great domes of Craggy, Blackstone
Knob, and Graybeard, behind
which oldj Mitchell hides his mammoth
head and back. From so Mride
a prospect of ever-varying beauty
one may pass in one minute into
the cool deep solitude of the
mountain forest.
2. The social' and intellectual delights
of Blue Ridge are as unique
as is - its physical charm.
3. For the moral and spiritual
life, Blue Ridge is a veritable
fountain of inspiration and renewal.
One can hardly speak one's
sober judgment without the appearance
of exaggeration. It must
be said, nevertheless, that, in my
view, no single gathering within
our borders means so much for
Southern Christian leadership as
the Blue Ridge Conferences.—Win.
Louis Poteat, Wake Forest, N. C.
lage point cannot adequately be
described. Mountain, valley, precipice
and plain—all softened by the
exquisite verdure so characteristic
of the Southern Appalachians, but
feebly portray the charm and repletion
of this wonder spot.
One of the newer features is a
remarkably substantial stairway
that was constructed during the
past year hundreds of feet up the
steep cliffs, above and overlooking
Chimney Rock itself. The so-called
Appian Way, a narrow bench on
the face of the precipice, nearly
one mile long, is an unending succession
of thrills for the mountain
climber. From Inspiration Point
is thought by many to be the finest
single view in the Southern Appalachian
Mountains, the center-piece
of the picture being the Hickory
Nut Falls of 400 feet in height.
Aside from scenery, provisions
have been made for the appeasement
of a healthy appetite, which
is likely to be the result of exercise
and the stimulating air of the
mountains. On the brink of a nearby
cliff a pavilion restaurant has mm
been built, and here it is that the
chicken dinners are served—not
the least of the good things to
realized during "A Day at Chim
Rock."—Blue Ridge Voicte.

of Hits
SPORTS
The Tigers had a sure enough
off day Friday and the Tech Yellow
Jackets went on a hitting
spree at the expense of
"•"three Tiger moundsmen rapping
out a grand total of twenty-four
hits which assisted by thirteen free
trips to the initial sack, buried the
sWigers under a 25 to 2 score, in the
first game of the series. The game
was staged at Grant' Field.
The two Auburn runs were put
over in the first frariie. Allen reached
first on a wild throw. Wallis
sent him around to third with a
single, and he scored when Grift
^ i n grounded out to short. Wallis
took second on the play. Pat Moul-ton
got a single "into center scoring
Wallis. Thereafter the Plainsmen
were destined to gather but
^*1hree blows.
Lefty Hughes fed his fast ones
to the Jackets for three innings
during which nine hits were registered
along with half a dozen
runs. Austin followed on the hill
for the next three rounds and was
^nicked for ten hits and five runs.
The Tigers blew up completely in
the sixth stanza, and were buried
under an avalanche of hits, seven
Techsters crossing the platter.
With the game sewed up for
.Tech, Moulton, was sent to the box
and Williams relieved Maury behind

were shoved over in the seventh
inning followed by three in the
eighth.
« Practically all of the Jackets
fattened their batting averages on
this hectic occasion, Moreland,
Merkle, and Wilder getting the
lion's share with a total of a dozen
betwelmTh^mr'TCTerklTand Wycoff
each hit one for the circuit. Moulton
was the lone batting star for
the Plainsmen, bagging a trio out
of four trips.
Palmisino had walked in the seventh
brought in the winning run
for the Atlantans.
The Tigers came back gamely
in the eighth stanza with a rally
that netted them three runs and
fell one short of tieing the count.
Sheridan and Stewart singled. Allen
was hit on the wrist filling the
sacks. Wallis singled to center
scoring Stewart and Sheridan. Allen
tallied while Griffin was being
thrown out at first
Fast fielding by the Tech gardeners
cut down several wallops,
converting them into singles. Pal-masino
and Angley were swat-smiths
for Tech, each bagging three,
while Stewart and Sheridan each
gathered two for the Plainsmen.
The game marked the last appearance
of the Tigers on the home
lot for the current season, the remaining
contests being scheduled
for foreign fields

TULANE AND AUBURN IN DUAL MEET HERE TODAY
The Greenies from Tulane will
be the guests of the Auburn Tiger
in his lair Saturday. Auburn never
fails, to extend a warm and hearty
reception to its visitors, especially
when these visitors are in their
fighting togs. The meet will be held
out on Drake Field and the Track
surrounding it. The Green Wave
must batter down a wall that has
withstood all kinds of attacks for
the past five springs and is standing
stronger now than* ever before,
undefeated in a dual meet for the
past five seasons. •
Tulane will bring a strong band
of cinder path artists in an attempt
to mar Auburn's record. In
their captain, Roy, the Crescent
City Crew, has a finished hurdler,
who, incidentally, got first place in
the 120 highs over at the Tech
Relays. The fight between) him and
Baskin for premier honors will be
well worth seeing .in the High
Hurdles event.
Hays is also a dangerous man in

SECOND GAME
Following the contest staged
Friday in Atlanta the two diamond
aggregations journeyed to the Plains
to stage the second encounter Saturday,
which Tech marked up in
the win column, 10 to 8. The game
jvas close and hard fought throughout
with each team always at the
other's heals. Sheridan was found
for a total of fourteen blows while
the Tigers hammered out thirteen
of the balls dished up to them by
Sneed, who did the hurling for
Three home runs
by the Techsters aided
riiaterially in enabling them to
carry away the honors.
Tech put over two in the third,
when Denicke, left fielder, singled
fr> right, pilfered second, and
trotted the remainder of the distance
when Wilder homered into
deep left. Coach Cole's hpys came
)&ck in their half, and grabbed the
llad. Stewart was passed after two
u^re out. Allen doubled, scoring
\%wart from first. Wallis gained
first on Denicke's error, Al-aring
on the play. Red Grif-
|n slapped out a double scor-allis.
Moulton fanned to end
^ e 'innjjng.
Anofner- Tiger run came in the
fourth when Maury singled to center,
moved over to the keystone
\yhen Self was hit by one of
Sneed's offerings, advanced to
third when the* Tech twirler let
loose with a wild/ one, and tallied
as Sheridan was tossed out at first.
Tech took the lead in the fifth
when Sneed and Palmasino singled
alfd Angley banged out a home run.
Hits by Moreland and Sneed and
a fielder's choice rang up two
more in the sixth. The Tigers also
tallied in this frame on hits by
Sheridan and Stewart, and Market's
double.

lent miler will have to do some
tall stepping to keep up with Jerry
Reeves, who, by the way, clipped
two and three-fifths seconds off of
the record set by the peerless
Stockleburg last year in the half
mile. This fine exhibition of running
was staged for the benefit of
the L. S. U. supporters down at
Baton Rouge last Saturday where
the Tiger Tracksters placed second
in a triangular meet between
L. S. U., Auburn and Tech.
The Track Team under Coach
Hutsell has had a most successful
season, swamping the Birmingham-
Southern team and smashing the
Tech squad. Tiger Tracksters attracted
quite a bit of attention at
the Tech Relays where Bobby
Locke, the Tiger Captain cleared
the horizontal at the dizzy height
of twelve feet, two inches and
broke the Southern record.
Baskin is now well out in front
in individual scoring with Green
second. These two are sure to place
in one or more events so let's get
out there Saturday afternoon and
give them our whole-hearted support.

How Tigers Are Batting
Last Friday's game, proved to be
disastrous from a batting as well
as a pitching standpoint^ the Tiger
swatsmiths garnering but five hits
during the nine frames. Part of the
ground lost was regained when
thirteen bingles were rung up Saturday,
but not enough to keep the
Tiger team average from suffering
a drop. Ed Allen continues to lead
the field with a mark of .362, and
he also leads in runs scored with
fifteen. Joe Wallis took a spurt in
the Tech series and gathered in
four safeties out of nine tries, and
moved up to second place.

What has probably been the
most interesting tennis tourney
ever held at Auburn has just ended
with Traywick triumphing over
Sellers in a three straight set win
on Monday afternoon. The semifinals
were staged Friday afternoon
when Traywick eliminated
Doughtie and Sellers defeated Gar
vin. That tennis is not exempt
from its upsets was forcefully
demonstrated when Doughtie and
Garvin, both picked for the finals,
were vanquished by two dark
horses.
A great deal of interest in the
tournament was manifested by the
spectators who filled up the ground
surrounding the court. It seems but
right that tennis should come into
its own here after being placed as
a major sport in other colleges
and universities.
The tourney was staged under
the direct sponsorship of the Auburn
Tennis Club headed by Dave
Garvin. It is probable that Sellers
and Traywick will go to the Southern
College Tournament to be held
in North Carolina at an early date.
It is possible and entirely logical
that a doubles team be sent along
too to represent Auburn.
RATS COP TWO GAMES
Troy Normal Falls Before
Bengal Babes
The Freshman Crew annexed
another scalp Friday when the
Troy Normal outfit fell before their
terrific onslaught. Potter, who has
been • chuncking the old sphere
across in fine style, had'the Nor-malites
completely at his mercy
throughout the entire contest,. He. -*pfoy
had his curves breaking to perfection
and many were the sore backs
that emerged from the conflict. He
kept his hits well scattered and
would have chalked up a shutout
but for a home run which McRoy
connected up with in the seventh,
scoring a team mate in front of
him.
Potter aided in winning his own
game by a mean performance with
the stick, lacing out three hits
out of four chances. Maury also
turned in a neat performance at
the plate when he knocked over
the dump for a double. Sankey and
Hitchcock, infielders par excellence,
who have been vieing with
each other in the matter of hit
collecting fell down somewhat,
Sankey, however, placed one timely
hit in addition to getting credit
for a nice sacrifice while the hard
hitting third sacker was having an
idle day at the bat.
Saturday afternoon again found
the two rivals' hard at it, the game
having been called at two o'clock
in order that the varsity might
have time to avenge Friday's defeat
at the hands of the Tech Yellow
Jackets. Wood, the former
Jasper Star, took the mound for
the Rats while Harrel went to the
slaughter pen for the visitors.
Wood kept the Trojan's hits well
scattered and but once in the entire
massacre did the visitors
threaten to cross the rubber; that
being in the seventh when the
bases were drunk with an unusual
burden of human freight. The
youthful chuncker kept his feet
warm and his head cool however
and retired the side without a
single casualty.
To Buck Ellis and Ben Sankey
go the hitting laurels of the game.
They each socked the old pill for
a trio of safeties, one of Buck's being
a double. The same two sterling
stick-swingers figuring in a
beautifully executed double play:
Ellis to Sankey to James. This
same Sankey was robbed of a prospective
home run when Ropper,
leaping frantically into the ozone
made a hair-raising catch of the
former's drive.
The Rats entrain for Atlanta
next Friday morning for a last
crucial series with the Gold and
White Rodents. If the Bengal Babes
come through in these two games
as well as they did in the last two,
they will be in line for the Southern
Freshman Championship or at
least a tie with the Tech Rats for
this position.

A pretty neat wrecking job was
done in the first game, too, the old
hulk being busted into smithereens.
However, a more difficult
job was encountered on Saturday
and the wrecking crew came
mighty near to being wrecked in
the attempt.
When this outburst of literary
merit reaches the admiring public,
the Tigers will be basking in the
warm sunlight of Athens, Georgia.
There they intend to Settle up for
certain things that happened down
here earlier in the season.
Those certain things were two
beatings, by scores of 5 to 2 and 3
to 2, respectively. The Tigers just
don't believe that the Bulldogs can
do it again and they are out to
prove it.
Having settled with the Bulldogs
the Plainsmen will move on up to
Anderson, South Carolina, where
the Furman and Clemson teams
will be watchfully waiting.
These two games will not be the
easiest in the world. The Purple
Hurricane of Furman holds two
decisions over the Georgia bunch,
and you know how the Clemson
Tiger always fights the Auburn
Jungle-Cat
Four victories would look mighty
juicy, as the Tiger average would
be raised to the .500 mark. Also,
if the Tigers swept the series they
would have three Conference victories
to add to their somewhat
meagre total.
While the 1»alltossers are enjoying
the hospitality of the Georgians
and Carolinians, the track team
will hold forth in the first, last and
only campus meet of the season.
While the Tigers have not lost
a dual meet since Hector was a
pup, they will stand a good chance
of doing so this Saturday unless
they step lively. From all reports,
Tulane is bringing up a classy aggregation,
including Roy, the
champion hurdle-hopper of the
Southland.

Dr. C. B. Yarbrough, Mayor of
Auburn, has donated to the Alabama
Polytechnic Institute a plot of land
on which will be located the powerful
new radio broadcasting station,
presented to the college by the Alabama
Power Co. Announcement to
this effect was made by President
Spright Dowell in conference with
Prof. A. St. C. Dunstan, head pro-fessor
of electrical engineering who
is in charge of the new station.
The land given by Dr. Yarbrough
comprises about four acres and is
situated on a ridge one mile east cf
the center of town, offering a fr.v.
orable location for broadcasting purposes.
The gift, it was stated, will
permit the college authorities to proceed
at once with the construction
and installation.
Orders have been placed for two
steel towers, each 165 feet hi^h,
which will carry the antenna of the
station. The station will be housed
in a building 20 by 30 feet, while th<>
studio will be established in one of
the college buildings, a power line

studio and station.
Dr. Covington Honored
Dr. N. G. Covington, assistant professor
of psychology and clinical diagnosis
at Auburn, has been invited
to speak at the annual meeting of
the American Veterinary Medical association
to be held in Portland, Oregon,
July 21-25. Invitation, which
has been accepted by Di. Covington
is regarded as a distinct honor, io
asmuch as only the leading men in
the profession of veterinary medi
cine in the United States are invited
to address this group. Dr. Covington's
subject will be, "Canine Post
Mortem Technique".
The invitation was extended by
Dr. J. C. Flynn, of Kansas City, Mo.,
secretary of the national association,
who attended the short course for
graduate students given at»JUi2iura—-
a few months^ ago gsder the direction
of Br. C. A. Cary, state veterinarian.
It was during this course
that Dr. Flynn observed the work of
Dr. Covington. Dr. Flynn himself
gave a series of lectures on the diseases
of small animals.
SATISFACTORY PROGRESS
The doctor entered the grocery
store. "How's the cheese today?"
he asked.
"Well, it's- a hit stronger, doctor,"
replied the grocer.—The

Erskine Ramsay Entertained
By Opelikans
Erskine Ramsay, Birmingham
capitalist and Auburn's generous
benefactor, heard a dozen speaktis
sing his praises at the banquet given
in his honor at the Clement hotel
last night and was visibly affected
by the wonderful reception accorded
him. Mr. Ramsay, who made possible
the great engineering hall now
under construction at Auburn, had
been an honor guest at the college
all day Thursday and his visit t o
Opelika in the evening crowned
what he described as a perfect day
for him.
After asking the pardon of his
hearers for personal references. Mi.
Ramsay, in recounting experiences
o; his life, pictured the winning
struggle of an ambitious boy who
at the age of nineteen became the
general superintendent of one of the
largest coal mines in the country,
and later became the guiding genius
of Birmingham's pride plants,
the great subsidiary of the giant
United States Steel corporation. He
spoke of the dogged determination
to win his place in life, and the rapid
promotions that rewarded his
unceasing toil. The life of '.his
great industrialist and inventor is
an inspiration to all young men
who would enrulate his life and win
measurable success.
In referring to his contribution of
$200,000 to the cause of education
in Alabama, $100,000 each to Auburn
and Montevallo, the honored
guest declared it a privilege to be
able to assist the young nen and
women of Alabama to win an education,
thereby fitting themselves to
make an equal fight in life. Time
and again he was accorded expressions
of appreciation by the banqueters
who had gathered to do him
honor.—Opelika Daily News.

WHAT'S IN A LITERARY SOCIETY
Miss Gibbs calls attention to the
F's in a literary society. In any
organization worth while we find
the three F's determining factors
in governing the success of the organization.
'Fun, Fellowship and
Freedom. We must have Fun, or else
the spirit of the Society goes down
and we find ourselves getting uninterested.
Then we have the
grand fellowship of people inter-es:
ed in subjects similar to our
own ideals. These are our friendships
which are invaluable and
never forgotten. Last but not least
we gain the freedom of speech
which marks the successful man
or woman. If you would be at ease
while speaking at any time join a

And he has lived to see it
Back in 1885, Thomas A. Edison succeeded in
transmitting electricity at 220 volts for one mile
—an achievement and a promise. »
The promise was fulfilled a few months ago,
when electricity at 220,000 volts was transmitted
two hundred and forty miles to supply Los
Angeles with light and power.
Now five billion dollars are invested in electric
power plants. A stupendous figure that testifies
to the alertness of thousands of college-trained
men who have been leaders in the production
and use of electric power. .
The electrical era has only dawned. Each year
some new machine or discovery makes it possible
to apply electricity in unexpected ways. The
graduate of today will find electricity directly
or indirectly a means for even greater accomplishments,
no matter what his calling in life
may be.
In 1881.Edison shipped to the
Paris Exposition his "Jumbo"
dynamo—eighth wonder of the
world. It could light 1000
lamps. Now there are G-E
generators large enough to supply
current for over a million
lamps, each with four times the
candle-power of the lamp of
1881.
