TIGERS BREAK EVEN BIG NEW ATHLETIC
IN GEORGIA SERIES! FIELD ASSURED
COME BACK IN SECOND GAME
AND CLAW BULLDOGS
Every dog has his day, as some­one
remarked sagely. But last
Saturday it was the Tigers' day at
the expense of the lordly Bulldog.
After going through a season that
nobody in the wildest flights of
fancy could have called a success­ful
one, the Tigers finally found
themselves stacked against one of
the best teams in the Sunny South,
and the most optimistic predic­tion
was that the Tigers would
hold the Georgians to a reasonable
score. However, the well known
dope was pleasantly upset, and
Coach Cole's charges acted like
real ball players in last week's se­ries,
the result being that Georgia
won the first game after a hard
fight by the score of 5 to 3, and
our own Tigers took the second
engagement by the close score of
2 to 1.
In the first game Skinny Hines
twirled his usual game, that is to
say, he pitched good ball and did
not have support enough to win.
Allen was off form in center and
let two hits roll by for four bases
each. Chambers pitched a fair
-.^_gs*a»_fo.r._Geor-gM^.Jaelugj; MLuv-^-
iou«l£ but always settling down
> before Ufe storm broke1. Cecil Stew-
- art found »the Cracker's offerings
very choice and banged out three
hits. Self collected two and played
a sensational game on left. Ram­sey's
circuit clout was the Georgia
feature from a hitting standpoint,
while the work of Thomasson at
first was the best fielding per­formance.
Fred Sale was in real hard luck
in the second encounter. He al­lowed
two hits to Knight's four,
and yet lost the game 2 to 1. The
difference was that the hits made
off Sale were few but of great
length, while the hits off Knight
came a little more frequently but
were limited to one base blows.
The two hits off Sale were home
runs, contributed by Messrs. Fan-cher
and Stewart respectively. The
Bulldogs got their only run in the
sixth on three straight singles. Al­len's
work in center more than
atoned for his misplays of the pre-
' vious day, while Red Griffin, at
second handled nine chances , at
the pivot without a slip. Thomas-son
again featured at the initial
sack while Sales' work in the box

STUDENT COUNCIL
OFFICERS INSTALLED
,The regular convocation period
Thursday was devoted to the in­stallation
of officers elected by the
Respective classes who are to serve
on the Student Council next year.
'The council is composed of four
Seniors, three Juniors, two Sopho­mores,
and one Freshman. Dr.
! Dowell administered the oath of
: office to the following men: C. H.
•; Turk, A. L. Scott, James Striplin,
: and W. T. Savage for the Seniors;
T. E. Phillips, J. B. Carter, and R.
H. Elder for the Juniors; Pete Hass-ler
and J. R. Gregg for the Sopho-j
mores.
Student government is in its in-
[ fancy at Auburn, having been in-j
augurated in November, 1923. It
;-works in coordination with t
Honor System and the results/^o
faK have been pleasing.

I FOOTBALL FIELD TO BE
READY BY SEPTEMBER
W. E. Glenn, of Chipley, Ga., Ed­itor-
in-Chief of THE PLAINSMAN
for the coming session.
"A" CLUB TO HAVE
BIG INITIATION
GOVERNOR BRANDON EX­PECTED
TO ATTEND
On Monday, May 19, the Auburn
"A" Club will hold its spring in­itiation.
Fourteen candidates,
scheduled for the Club member­ship,
are to take part in the cere­monies,
this being one of the larg­est
number to be "taken through"
at a single initiation.
Nine of the new men are of the
baseball team, three of track and
two of basketball. These initiates
are "Pluto" Hines and Doug
Knight, pitchers; Pete Davis, catch­er;
Pete Fancher, Cecil Stewart,
Alex Ansley and Dick Maury, in-fielders;
Joe Market, outfield; and
student manager, "Ricky" Mellen
of the baseball team. The track
men are L. L. Nelson, M- V. White,
and Joe Young, while Bill McKin-ney
and Earl Barks make up the
basketball contingent.
Following the initiation pro­gram
that will last during the
larger part of the day, the "A"
Club will hold a banquet Monday
night. Among those who are the
invited guests to the banquet are,
Governor Brandon, who will be in
Auburn for the R. 0. T. C. review
and commencement exercises,
President Spright Dowell, Roy
Dimmitt, Charles F. De Bardeleben,
the Auburn coaching staff, and
several of the visiting alumni.
L. CHASTAIN DIES
OF APPENDICITIS
i It was indeed with saddened
hearts that the news was received
last Thursday evening that Vadus
L Chastain had passed from this
world into a better one. Death
c;me as a surprise to many of his
cl Dsest friends who had not even
di earned of his being so seriously
ill. An attack of appendicitis was
the cause of his death. Mr. Chas­tain
showed loyalty as a student
that is seldom shown by anyone
ahd which may have caused his
death as this was the third attack
he had suffered, but rather than
'give up his school work he had
resolved to finish out this year's
work and then have an operation
performed.
(Continued on Page 3)
When the September term of
school begins the area of Auburn's
practice fields for football will be
double the present size. Surveys
have already been made and for
some weeks engineers have been
laying out field and working on
the plans for this extension of ath­letic
facilities. Excavations and
other work of this constructive na­ture
will begin soon in order that
the project will be completed before
September.
The new field will be at the north
end of Drake Field, on the proper­ty
recently purchased by the col­lege.
It will include two football
fields which will be parallel to
each other and the northeast and
southwest corners of the large field
will include baseball diamonds as
the size of the field will give ample
room for two baseball fields.
Promotion of more intra-mural
athletics as well as intercollegiate
contests is one of the aims of the
athletic authorities and the com­pletion
of the present plans will
make this possible. The large num­ber
of promising football candidates
who will be trying for a berth on
the varsity team next fall also makes
iiie new piactrce* Iields more wel­comed.
Never in the history of
football at Auburn has there been
such a number who would make
strong bids for the team as will be
the case in September.
As a result of the large atten­dance
at football games last season,
and by conservation of these ath­letic
funos the athletic association
is able to begin the program this
year. The project under way will
probably "include an expenditure of
five thousand dollars and is to be
completed during the summer. The
plans of the adminstration is a
further increase in number of fields
as soon as athletic funds are avail­able.
TIGERS LOSE TWO
CLOSE ONES TO JACKETS
The Tigers started their four
game road trip by dropping the
first two to the Tech Yellow Jack­ets,
the scores being 7 to 6, and 2 to
0. In the first conflict Doug Knight
pitched good ball, after relieving
Hines and gave up less hits than
were made by his teammates, but
the Jackets hit more opportunely
and took the game in spite of the
fourteen safe bingles made by the
Tigers. Snead twirled for Tech
and was fortunate to get a win,
as the Tigers pounded everything
he had, Fancher and Davis each
gathering four hits.
On Thursday the clans met again,
and this tilt was more on the order
of a real ball game. Rough Ed
Allen tried his hand at pitching for
the first time and made a good ef­fort,
errors letting in both of Techs
tallies. He allowed seven hits and
fanned four. On the other hand,
Slim Thompson pitched superb ball,
whiffing nine Tigers and allowing
but four hits, three of these sliding
off the bat of Red Griffin.
The Tigers displayed a good ar­ticle
of ball in these two games,
hitting being especially good in
the first game. Neither Hines or
Knight were hit hard in the first
game, wildness being the main
trouble. Ed Aliens work in the
box was about the steadiest dis­played
this season.
MISS. AGGIES WIN
IN S. I. C. MEET
TIGERS SHOW UP WELL
AGAINST OPPOSITION
The Tiger cinder path artists
entered into competition with va­rious
other colleges, and found the
competition a bit too strong. How­ever,
all things considered, the
Auburnites made an excellent show­ing,
scoring twice as many points
as they did in last year's meet.
As was expected, the Mississippi
Aggies cleaned up in everything,
getting nine of the fifteen first
places, and smashing five confer­ence
records for good measure.
Kentucky trailed A. & M. with a
38 point gap separating them from
the leaders, and L. S. U. followed
closely for third place. Auburn
stood ninth with 6 1-2 points, 4 1-2
points ahead of our beloved sister
institution, the University of Ala­bama.
There were many closely con­tested
races in the meet, and in
most cases it was necessary to
break a record in order to finish
first. One exception to this rule
was the two mile run. Hall, the
Kentucky runner, could have stop­ped
for refreshments and walked
home the last lap and still have
finished first. However, he chose
to run the last lap and broke the
record', briinson of the Mississiipp-ians,
was the! high point scorer
with twelve.
Auburn was unable to win a first
place in the finals, although it was
the opinion of many that Gene
Creel would have shown the way
in the 440, had he not tripped over
a runner who cut in on him on
the last curve. Nelson was also
robbed of a possible place in the
century when he toppled over the
shoulders of Brown of Tulane, who
evidently decided to call it a day
about the fifty yard mark. Duke
Marquis came third in the second
heat of the 120 yard high hurdle,
and placed fourth in the finals of
the 220 yard low hurdles. Stock-elberg
came third in the mile, and
a fast mile it was too. Locke tied
for second in the pole vault, and
Boyd, by a fine finish, came in
for fourth in the two mile. Pea
Green won the second heat in the
220 but was in fifth place in the
finals. All told the showing was
a great improvement over last
year's.
COMMENCEMENT DANCES
GO OFF IN GRAND STYLE
The Commencement dances,
which were held during this past
week end, marked the closing of
Auburn's social functions for the
year 1923-24. Three good sets of
dances were held this year and all
were big successes. Every year the
dances seem to get better and this
past year was no exception to the
rule.
Many of the South's fairest dam­sels
rolled, into the Village this
last week and Auburn's sons did
their best to entertain them during
their three days' visit. There were
dances morning, afternoon and
night and if all there did not get
enough dancing then it was their
own fault.
Music for the occasion was fur-nished
by a comparatively 'new
orchestra. It is known as the Ala­bama
Serenaders and consists of
various star performers of several
orchestras. Max Jones a native
son of Auburn was undoubtedly
the star performer of the orchestra.

AUBURN TENNIS STARS
SHOW UP WELL
Auburn was represented in the
Southern Tennis Tournament by
Jack Wiatt and Willie Guy. These
two racket stars showed up well,
although Wiatt was eliminated in
the first round by Carnes of Geor­gia
Tech. Guy, however, won his
first match, the loser being Fuller
of North Carolina. However, he
was unlucky enough to draw in the
next round the player who later
won the tournament, Mr. Murray,
of Tulane, and Guy was eliminated
on the second round.
In the doubles, the Tiger rack­eteers
met and were defeated by
the strong North Carolina combina­tion
of Fuller and Whittaker.

Au Revoir
Now that the scholastic year is drawing to a close, and the time
has come for us to enter upon the greater problems of life, we, the
staff of 1923-24, do now surrender to our worthy successors the
duty of doing their part to keep alive the spirit of our Alma Mater
and assisting in retaining Auburn in the position of honor and glory
which she now holds among her sister institutions by publishing a
college weekly that will be worthy of her greatness. And in so do­ing,
we express the wish that they make THE PLAINSMAN bigger
and better in every way than it has been in the past, and build up
a publication that stanus second to none in its line in the country.
If we have accomplished anything in our attempt to publish a
creditable college newspaper, we are both glad and proud, but our
one regret is that we did not attain more. AU that we have done
this year has been with a spirit of loyalty to Auburn, and our pride
lies in the fact that we were able to do our bit for the institution.
For our shortcomings we express regret and the sincere wish that
they could have been avoided. For the appreciation of our efforts
we extend our heartfelt thanks, hoping tbat it was well deserved.
May the measure of success which falls to the lot of those who
succeed us be,greater jjy far than any that we may have attained.
To our Menus, tiie students and faculty of Auburn, we bid a sad
and solemn farewell. We wish for you, one and ah, the most suc­cessful
session during 1924-25 that you have ever known, and hope
that everything that you do and say will be but a means of adding
more stars to* the beautiful constellation which already adorns the
crown of our beloved Alma Mater. May the best of luck go with
each-of you and smiling iortune De^your constant companion all
the way.
A Farewell Retrospect
With this issue we, the members of the Class of '24, say goodbye.
It i s a time of gladness and a time of sadness. We are glad to be­come
alumni of the Alabama Polytechnic Institute, but tlie thought
of leaving her grounds, her classrooms, her faculty, and other
classmen, causes peculiar sadness.
Nearly four years ago we came here as students and since that
time we have "drunk freely at the fountain of knowledge." We
have traveled from registration as "scared rats" to the point of re­ceiving
degrees, after which we shall be alumni of the greatest in­stitution
of learning in the world, as far as we are concerned.
The effects on us of four years spent here is a story that is un­ethical
for us to tell; but, as we look back over it, we cannot miss
this opportunity to remind ourselves of the developments we nave
witnessed in our Alma Mater. It has been a remarkable period for
Auburn.
We had hardly gotten settled as freshmen when Comer Agricul­tural
Hall burned. It was a great loss, but in due time a modern
fire-proof building with many improvements and more space was
erected on the same ground, using the old walls. As an emergency
two large buildings standing on the aviation field at Montgomery
were bought and moved to Auburn. One is now used by the
Animal Husbandry Department and the other by the Department
of Agricultural Engineering. The improvements of the new Comer
Hall over the old, plus these two aviation buildings, almost doubles
the space for agricultural teaching, research, and extension.
> Likewise, the greenhouses on "Agricultural Hill" have been
doubled, and many minor improvements of the grounds have been
made. Coming from Agriculture to Veterinary Medicine, we see
three modern brick buildings in the place of an old antique wooden
building which was inadequate and improper for what it had been
, used since the beginning of the Veterinary College at Auburn. The
new buildings with their equipment gives Auburn a modern veter­inary
college. It is said, to be one of the best in the entire United
States.
Around Langdon Hall we have witnessed many improvements. A
new stage, a band room, a fire escape, two additional front doors,
with steps across the entire front, are the, outstanding improve­ments
here. From the basement of Langdon Hall to a new build­ing
about 50 x 200 feel is the progress of the Woodwork Depart­ment.
The basement of Langdon Hall was remodeled and made
into a laboratory for Home Economics, a new' department at
Auburn. ;
Joining the Woodshop we have a new shop building, being used
temporarily by students as a Cooperative Mess Hall. Nearby a
two-story building, 50 x 150 feet, for laboratory and research in
Engineering is now going up. In it will be housed valuable equip­ment
presented by the Alabama Power Company ad other corpora­tions
some years ago.
In the March of progress the Military Department has not been
overlooked. Housing facilities have been provided and extensive
military equipment, including horses, has been added.
With the comfort and convenience of students in mind the first
building to be erected from the "Greater Auburn Semi-Centennial
Campaign," which was put on when we were sophomores, was a
dormitory which is thoroughly modern, convenient, and a great
addition to any institution of learning. In it over 100 boys are
comfortably housed, giving additional room for an ever-growing
institution.
Upon arriving at Auburn the first time we found the Y. M. C. A.
headquarters in a rented building up-town, but it now has better
quarters, belonging to the College.
The water supply for the College, and for the town of Auburn,
has been greatly improved. A tank with a 50,000-gallon capacity
was erected and a recent announcement states that the present
supply will be tripled at an early date. Plans are-all ready for the
beginning of this work.
From the standpoint of the College as a whole the land area has
been more than doubled. Near the main campus several important
pieces of property have been bought, and additions to the Ex­periment
Station bring the total land area of the Alabama Poly­technic
Institute to about 800 acres, compared with approximately
350 acres when we came to Auburn as students.
A great many minor' improvements, such as painting, overhaul­ing
of the water system, and small improvements in buildings, as
well as improvements in the campus, have been made. Total de­velopments
along this line have been extensive.
As we leave Auburn we are assured of a new Engineering Build­ing,
to cost $250,000. Plans for it have been drawn and.hids will
be asked for at an early date.
We have witnessed also the development at ,Auburn of a Depart­ment
for Girls, headed by some of the ablest women educators in
the United States. The women and girls of Alabama demanded an
opportunity to be educated at Auburn, and the girls who have
graduated have found a great field of service awaiting them.
It is not necessary to state that faculty additions have been in
line with material improvements.
As we lay aside studenj life and go out to render service for
which we have been trained we shall do so with pride, with thank­fulness,
with satisfaction, and with complete confidence in the
future of our Alma Mater.
To President Dowell and his faculty we express our thanks and
appreciation for their faithful, efficient, and untiring services. We
extend congratulations on the great improvements which we have
witnessed, and pledge our support in future development plans.

FINANCIAL REPORT OF
Y. M. C. A. AND Y. W. C. A.
Questions have come from stu­dents
in regard to the finances of
the Y. M. C. A. and the Y. W. G. A.
Perhaps this explanation will help
all to understand how these funds
are handled.
The Student Activities fee has
been increased $2.50 each year for
the purpose of promoting social
and religious work among stu­dents.
This added fee is collected
by the college as the others are, is
an assessed college fee and is ad­ministered
by the President as he
sees >best. Most of it i s spent in
promoting Y. M. C. A. and Y. W.
C. A. work among the student body.
After reading this you may have
further question to ask in regard
to it. The books are open and you
may see the financial report in de­tail

Dowell or the Acting General Sec­retary

RESOLUTIONS
On the Death of Vadus
Chastain
Lee
Tiie spirit of a noble-hearted and
faithful young man has been sud-j
•• uenly called to its reward in the
deatu of our friend and class-mate,
Vadus Lee Chastain. He was mod­est
and unostentatious, yet he
. • *' n'ever shirked a duty. As a stu­dent
he was honest and upright,
doing his work faithfully and well;
as a friend he was sincere, candid,
and true; and as a member of the
' Ag. club he was earnest, responsive,
and ever in his place. His name
has only been transferred from the
"Ag. Club Roll" to the Roster of
the Sons of God in that Home Eter­nal
in the Heavens.
Therefore, be it resolved, That
the Agricultural Club of the Ala­bama
Polytechnic Institute, of
which he was a member, have
heard with profound sorrow of
the death of Mr. Vadus Lee Chas­tain;

b friend and fellow classmate, both
in college and in the Ag. Club;that
while it seems a strange provi­dence
which took away one so
young, one so gifted, and whose
life was bright with promise of a
long and useful career to his State

in submission to the will of Him
who doeth all things best for His
children.
Resolved, That in the death of

and co-worker, the Ag. Club has
lost a faithful member whose pres­ence
will be missed; the student
body of the Alabama Polytechnic
Institute a loyal and devoted friend;
and his family a loving and worthy
son and brother.
Be it further resolved, That a
copy of these resolutions be for­warded
to his grief stricken family,
a copy handed to the Plainsman,
a copy maflledJe-the.Marion Coun­ty

STUDENTS' CO-OP.
ELECTS OFFICERS
The board of directors of the
students' Cooperative Club met
Monday and elected the following
students for officers of the Club
next year: Clyde A. Pruitt, Manag
er; D. W. Griffin, treasurer; and
E. M. Ilarkins, head waiter.
The Students' Club was organiz­ed
three years ago with not quite
.< hundred students. It is a stu­dent
organization being operated
entirely by students. Today there
are over three hundred students
eating at the Club. Besides having
a chef employed with five assist­ants,
there are around twenty stu­dents
employed who are enabled
to help defray their expenses while
in college.

SPRING BANQUET
How Tigers Are Batting
The team mark of th& Tigers took
a slight fall during the past week,
but if games can be won with two
hits who cares whether the team
average is .391 or .067. However,
while the team average was slip­ping,
three of the players gave
theirs a boost. "Ole Reliable"
Stewart, Fancher and Self, between
themselves, collected eight of the
twelve hits gathered by the team.
As a result of his four hits, Stew­art
is now leading the team with
the substantial average of .338.
Rough Ed had a slight slump and
trails Cecil by eighteen points.
They are the only two batting
over .300, but Griffin and Fancher
are both near the mark. The av­erages

The cabinet of the Y. W. C. A.
held its annual spring banquet at
the tea room Saturday night. There
were eighteen members present
and one visitor, Miss Zoe Dobbs.
Georgia Thomas, iue Vicepresi-dent,
made the first talk of the
evening, speaking on "The impor­tance
of Being a Cabinet ivlemuer."
iihzabeth Young made an impromp­tu
speech on "What Being on the
X. W. C. A. Cabinet has meant to
me."
i h e members of the cabinet were
led in a few "peppy'' songs by
Georgia Tliomas. It was uecided
to make it a definite part of the
Business of the vice-president to see
that interest in the Y. W. C. A. be
increased by the use of music.
Miss Zoe Dobbs made an address
on the power of music through the
ages, using as her subject "Loose
Threads". Dorothy Uuggar spoke
to the cabinet on 'Y. W. C. A. and
Pep".
Dorothy Anderson gave "A Fare­well"
for the seniors. This was
followed by "A Call to Blue Ridge"
by Margaret Wilbur. Emily Hare
made a talk on "Follow the Gleam",
after which the members rose,
joined hands, and sang the Y. W.
C. A. Song, "Follow the Gleam."
During the dinner, plans were
made to have cabinet luncheons
once a month next year for the
purpose of drawing the members
closer together in their work. Non
cabinet members of the different
classes will often be visitors at
these meetings.

Alpha, secretary and treasurer.
A five-course chicken dinner was
served and when the courses were
finished the members of the Coun­cil
were called upon to make im­promptu

committee were guests at the
banquet and an intensely interest­ing
talk was made by Prof. J. M.

The new Alma Mater is now on
sale at all local drug stores. They
are only thirty cents each, and
every student should buy one or
two to help defray the cost of pub­lication
incurred by the author.
Besides, no Auburn student can af­ford
to go without a copy of his
Alma Mater, and all of his best
jirls would like to own a copy, too.
ay them now!
The drive to raise funds for band
uniforms which was undertaken
last week with such an auspicious
degree of success, is still going on
and although the goal has not yet
heen reached, there is all evidence
that it will be realized before the
matter comes to a close. Eleven
hundred and fifty dollars was the
total collected up until Thursday
night, which leaves only three hun­dred
and fifty to be collected yet.
Tuesday night, the vaudeville
which was so successful here, was
taken to Opelika and a neat sum
was the result. Checks have also
been received from Birmingham
and elsewhere and Bill Wood is at
present in Montgomery soliciting
donations from the loyal alumni of
that city. Other liberal contribu­tions
are expected.
Garrard Harris, associate editor
of the Birmingham News, and well
Known all over the aoutn, has writ­ten
a book on "The Llements of
Conservation" to be taught as a
text in tbe public schools of Ala-oama.
Mr. Harris is a loyal friend
of Auburn and tbe news of his
latest achievement will be read
with intense interest by his many
friends here, it will be remember­ed
that he was the guest of the
institution at convocation not long
ago and delivered a splendid lec­ture
on "Conservation" there. Al­so
he spoke before the class in
journalism.
Comments on Mr. Harris' new
book have been made by various
papers in the state. One paper ex­presses
the great need for a text­book
on Conservation which has
existed for some time. It con­tinues
: "Not to have had something
to present to the textbook commis­sion
was to lose valuable time, per­haps
several years, so Mr. Harris,
who is known to have been a stu­dent
of the question for many
years and active in the work of
game and fish protection, under­took
to supply the deficiency.
'The Elements of Conservation' is
written applicable to the entire
southeastern states region and is
suitable for use in any of these
states."
The new book has already been
accepted by the state textbook com­mission
and will be used as a sup­plementary
reader for the fifth and
sixth grades. Teaching Conserva­tion
in the public schools is the
outgrowth of the recognized need
for such by Mr. Harris and other
students of the question. "The
Elements of Conservation" will be
off the press and ready for use
when the fall terms of the schools
begin.

this opportunity to express his sin­cere
appreciation for the work
done by those not on the staff.
They offered their services at all
times and gave of their best when
called upon. Such splendid co­operation
deserves worthy mention
and has gone a long way toward
getting the Plainsman out regular­ly
and on time.
Especial mention goes to Messrs.
W. D. Baughman, W. C. Horton,
Alex Saunders, H. S. McDowell, E.
D. Ball, and Miss Emily Hare for
their assistance in helping secure
news for the columns of the
Plainsman. It is hoped that the
same interest will be taken in the
publication next year for with such
interest and cooperation displayed
by the student body, the Plainsman
will be assured-of success.
Coach Newell and his "Rats"
journey down to iroy last week
witli the intentions of getting re­venge
for the double drubbing they
received at the hands of the Nor-malites
some time ago, but return
ed with the small end of the score.
The first game was a pitchers'
wattle between "Goat" Walker and
Grant, which went to the Trojans
3 to 0. A similar duel took place
in the second game between two
southpaws, Gilchrist for the Nor­mals
and "Lefty" Hughes for the
Tiger Freshmen. "Lefty" gave up
only two scattered hits and fanned
seven, while Gilchrist sent twelve
back to the bench by the strikeout
route, but let the young Tigers get
four safe bingles off his delivery.-
A costly bobble in the infield gave
Troy the only score of the second
game.
In the first game Quarles of the
Normalites connected with one of
Grant's fast ones for a home run.
Card was on base at the time as
the result of an infield hit. The
outstanding feature of the two
games was the superb pitching of
the quartette of flingers that were
on the mound during the two
games. Eight hits was the total
netted off the Trojan pitchers while
the Freshman twirlers held their
opponents to five.

No, A. Y. Babe, a pine burr is
not a porcupine egg. f
Mr. Chastain was one of the
most widely known students on
the campus, having been connected
with numerous student activities
and counting bis friends by his
acquaintances. He was a type of
boy that made friends regardless of
where he was and held the respect
and regard of all Auburn students
and professors that had the pleas­ure
of knowing him. He was en­rolled
in college as a Junior, tho
it was only his second year here.
He was taking the Agricultural
Course and was prominently con­nected
with the Agricultural Club.
The funeral for Mr. Chastain was
held on last Saturday at the home
of his parents in Haleyville, Ala.
Two Auburn students, R. V. Ford
and F. B. Sullivan, accompanied the
body from Opelika to its final rest­ing
place. Mr. Chastain leaves, to
mourn his death, his father, Mr.
Jim Chastain, his mother, two
brothers, four sisters and a num­ber
of other relatives as well as
friends scattered throughout the
state.

THE PLAINSMAN
AUBURN SPIRIT
STRONG IN NEW YORK
Recently THE PLAINSMAN was
favored with a personal letter from
C. E. Reid, better known as
"Gene," an alumnus of Auburn of
the Class of 1921, and former track
star. In it he gives some idea of
how the spirit of old Auburn is
being kept alive among her gradu­ates
who are at present located in
New York State. "Gene" was one
of the most popular students who
ever came to Auburn, and his let­ter
will be read with genuine in­terest
by his many friends hers
who were so fortunate as to know
him. In addition, he also sent a
picture of a group of Auburn and
Clemson men which is also given
here for the benefits of the stu­dents.
Below will be found his letter:
Editor Plainsman:
Perhaps you will be interested
to know just what the Auburn men
are doing in New York State and
what efforts are being made to
keep the Auburn spirit alive. We
have an organization here com­posed
of some twenty or thirty
men and on an average of about
once a month we call the clan to­gether
and talk over Auburn and
old times.
The Clemson men are also very
active up here and we have been
cooperating with them most act­ively
during the past six months.
About a month ago the Auburn
and Clemson Alumni Associations
got together and decided to stage
an old-fashioned Southern dance.
Needless to say the affair was a
huge success. We were especially
successful in getting out some of
the old heads, who really seemed
to enjoy the festivities as much as
the younger boys. Now that we
have raised the enthusiasm of ev­erybody,
we intend to stage an­other
dance in the near future. As
you probably know, the Northern
custom of giving dances is quite
different from that of the South
and it was quite a relief to dance
Southern fashion again.
I am sending you, under separate
cover, a cut of a photograph taken
at the dance. This was made by
the General Electric Company News
Bureau and may be of some value
to you in editing your paper or in
the Auburn Alumnus. For your
information the names of the men
shown in the picture are given.
Other Auburn men who are in
Schenectady but not shown in the
picture are: Lyle Biggin, '21; C.
B. Lynch, '23; B. L. Spain, '06; J.
P. Sheally, '20; W. J. Whare, '12;
A. Weaver, '15.
The activities of some of the old
fellows, who have recently left
Schenectady, might be of interest
to Plainsman readers.
Mr. D. E. Bivins, '21, is with the
General Electric Company in the
Atlanta office.
Mr. R. W. House, '21, spent a
year or two here in Schenectady
and has returned to the South.
Mr. John Howarth, '20, is with
the Adirondack Power & Light
Corporation at Oneida, New York.
John has recently acquired a wife
and seems to be getting along
successfully.
Mr. L. P. Spoon, '21, after work­ing
for the General Electric Com­pany
for several months, is now
Instructor of Electrical Engineer­ing
at Cornell College, Ithaca, New
York. Roy also took a recent
plunge into the matrimonial pool.
However, he preferred to go South
for his girl and we understand
found her in Athens, Georgia.
Mr. A. J. Wade, '21, is with the
General Electric Company in Port­land,
Oregon.
Mr. J. D. Wade, '21, is in Supply
Sales work for the General Elec­tric
Company in the Detroit of­fice.
"Jimmie" isn't married yet
but we have our suspicions.
Mr. Harry Seibt, '19, is with the
General Electric Company at St.
Louis, Mo. Harry married a Sche­nectady
girl in October, 1923.
Mr. "Light-foot" Young, '20, after
taking a "Post" course at M. I. T.
came to Schenectady where he fin-lsiied
the Testing Course and has
reported to the Dallas Office of
uic General Electric Company.
Air. George Pollock, '22, spent a
year or two with us and is now
oack home in Alabama.
Mr. Stewart Dent, '20, finished
the Testing Course in Schenectady
and is now in the Supply Sales
Department of the Jackksonvilie,
ITa., office. The cold weather
didn't agree with Stewart very
well and the last time we saw him
he was singing "I'm Goin' Sou.
Where the Weather Suits i\iy
Clothes."
Miss Waria Whilson, '22, is also
taking a six months' course in
Transmission work in the Central
Station Department of the General
Electric Company, under the sup­ervision
of the Alabama Power
Company. You will also find Miss
Whitson's picture in the negative
I am forwarding, under separate
cover.
You can see from the above that
although we are 1500 miles from
home, the Auburn spirit is still
kept alive and we welcome any op­portunity
to be of service in the
effort toward a greater Auburn.
Yours very ruly,
GENE REID, '21,
Auburn Alumni Association.

low
able
Now is the winter of our discon­tent
made glorious summer by
son of a gun; referring,
must know, to that fel-diploina.
And the remark-conclusion
we arrive at
is that we don't feel as if we had
been through college. On the other
hand, not so remarkable. As in­stance,
we go so far as to read
in our balmier days, a novel con­cerning
life at college. The writer
happened to be something of a
genius, and we find bis imagination
running riot. He pictures a scene
in a college student's den. It is
thronged with remarkable men.
Being of extraordinarily sanguine
temperament, we never altogether
ceased to hope that there were
some such men in the world, hut
four suggestive years in a college
have bid fair to firmly establish
the disillusion. This undeception
was not only thus established, but
was, to say the least, fiendishly
thorough.
We may find the college man in
his room at almost any time, deep
in dissertation most thought-pro­vocative.
This with no reference
to the style of thought, nor yet the
degree of provocation. Here are
discussed the relative merits of the
various brands, with an eye to
effects—relatively immediate, not
after. At times, some personality
more enlightened will so outdo
himself as to introduce the subject
of literature, the Classics, or some­thing
equally preposterous, only to
be favored with tolerant smiles, or
silent contempt. This person then
either seeks out some uncouth cell
in which to console himself as
misunderstood, or joins that segre­gated
sect so common to a college,
who hold themselves serenely aloof,
secure in their mental excellence.
This is a pitfall unknown apparent­ly
to those who make a point of
counsel. At any rate, our above
friend the author of college stories
neglected to mention it. Even Mr.
Marks failed us.
We look about us expectantly,
seeking the college atmosphere so
vivid in our story. Here passes a
man clad in what is called a cam­el's
hair sweater. Presently an­other
passes, and ere long several
more—all similarly attired. Then
when we are almost in a state of
transport, a gentleman passes who
is not wearing one, and the effect
is gone. We then pause to pro­nounce
a fervid curse upon all au­thors
and their descendants—the
blow being too great.
Now we find the fine old game
of golf being imposed upon. Were
it only played by the amateur there­of
we would probably not have a
great need for the links. As it is
we do not deem them so necessary
to golfers whose main point seems
to be carrying a few clubs through

town, or mistreating a threesome
in the front yard before an admir­ing
public.
We are troubled for some time
at moving picture shows. What
benefit we ask ourselves does the
average undergraduate hope to de­rive
from uproariously greeting
each acquaintance as he or she—
usually she—appears on the screen?
This is probably a nice point in
courtesy which we, being remark­ably
stupid, are unable to fathom.
We make this conjecture for the
following reason: We have con­cluded
that the college student is
essentially chivalrous from the
fact that in the event of any young
woman's entering this same picture
show, accompanied or not by a
male escort, the audience, with in­stinctive
courtesy, rises en masse
and greets the fair one at the top
of its voice. She will usually re­spond
with the faintest of maiden­ly
blushes, whereupon the assem­blage
resumes its seat, well pleased
with itself.
We again pause to marvel at the
genious of our author. We remem­ber
a description of a convocation
in one of the student's dens in our
story. The discussion is on.
Suggestions are advanced for solu­tion
of political and economical
problems, wonderful in their sim­plicity
and applicability—indica­tive
of perspicuity and deep-seated
thought. Fired with hope we rush
to the nearest of the nightly gather­ings
peculiar to our neighborhood,
yet strangely absent from our book.
We break in, alas, on something
like this:
"Talkin' 'bout strong licker, they
was two guys at home bought a
quart one night, they knocked the
top off the botttle and they both
passed out."
Then from a more remote corner:
"Two birds at home got together
one night. One of 'em says Let's
get some licker, and they both pas­ses
out."
This is indicative of the college
man's proneness to exaggeration
and more could be enlarged upon,
but that would require another
essay and in a more serious vein.
However, while on the subject of
expansion of that kind we are
forcibly reminded of the dances,
socalled, that arc held in our col­lege
from time to time. Suffice it
to say that we once heard dancers
referred to as "exponents of the
art of Terpsichore, most graceful
of the Muses," and if this be so,
then the art of fair Muse has been
expounded with a thoroughness
and diversity wonderful in its in­terpretative
value and originality
of rendition. We here again pause
to advance the veiled question as
to how grace can be exemplified
without the aid of motion, or, to
put it lightly, in an apparent state
of rest. However, the object of the
modern dances (ulterior) seems
to be striving to look like a paint­ing
by John Held, Jr. What is still
more pathetic is the fact that most
of the young hopefuls succeed only
too well.
We had intended to close this,
our attempt, with a panegyric, but
since the Faculty is to be the ob­ject
of our attention, an elegy sug­gests
itself. We feel, however, that
we must waive the prerogative.
Entertaining, as we do, a high re­gard
for the Ancients we find our­selves
unable to deny their slighest
wish, let alone to consider disobed­ience
of that grand old mandate—
De mortuis nil nisi bonum—.

After many years
of service as a direct-current

original application in
the steel industry in
1891—in the Edgar

days as a motor in ths

In 1891 the first electric motor was put to work in a
steel mill. In 1905 the first large rolling mill motor, and
in 1906, the first reversing mill motor were also installed
in steel mills. These motors—all Westinghouse Motors
-—were history-makers in the steel industry.
Other industries too have profited by Westinghouse
engineering pioneering.
-—In the textile industry, individual motor drive
became a reality in 1902, in the Sauguoit Silk Co.,
Philadelphia, Pa.
—In the rubber industry, Westinghouse ideas as
originally applied in 1900, are today the standard method
of application in plants throughout the world.
—In the handling of materials at the world's great
shipping centers, in the manufacturing of paper, in the
motion picture industry, in coal mining, in meat packing,
railroading, ship building—in fact, in every branch of
human activity can be found progress and profits
traceable directly to the pioneering of Westinghouse
Engineers.

MEN'S OUTFITTERS AND SHOES
The Home of Hart Schaffner & Marx Clothes
The Daily Dozen
By Chester C. Conner
At many weddings the happy
man is the bride's father.
A penitentiary is a cold storage
plant where they keep bad eggs.
Dad's pocket book trimmed Moth­er's
hat—and vice versa.
Now that woman has a perma­nent
wave, will some one invent a
permanent shave?
The sharpest thing about some
men is the crease in their trousers.
A spinster is interested in a man
even if he can only make smoke
rings.
A man's fortune may be in six
figures—a woman's is usually in
one.
Shortness is a virtue in sermons
and pie crust.
An enterprising undertaker puts
one of his-business cards in every
quart the bootlegger sells.
Hair and work go not together—
for instance, bald heads, and the
chin of a woman.
Some men would be jealous if
their wives flirted a table cloth out
the back door.
An acid disposition is preserved
in family jars.
WILSONIAN SOCIETY
ELECTS OFFICERS
At the last meeting of the Wil-sonian
Literary Society something
extraordinary happened after the
president had called the meeting to
order. A twenty-five dollar picnic
was planned. There's nothing to
prevent its success but the twenty-five
dollars. This important event
will take place Friday night at
Yarbrough Springs at seven o'clock.
All members are urged to pray for
the "moon to shine."
The society has completed a
most successful year. Next year it
is planned to make it even tfigger
and better and plans were discuss­ed
at the meeting whereby this can
be accomplished. A loving cup
was selected to be given to the best
inter society debaters of next year.
In addition, the following officers
were elected' to serve during the
first semester of the 1924-25 ses­sion:
President, B. W. Creel; Vice-
President, A. L. Scott; Secretary,
Clara Nale; Treasurer, F. Mullins;
Critic, J. Palmer; Beporter, Mildred
Cheshire; Sergeant-at-Arms, M. Salz-man.

To you capitalists
— the class of '24
Your college training is in truth a capital. Its value
is not fixed, but depends on the way you invest it.
Some men demand a quick return — a high per­centage
of profit. Others look more to the solidity
of the investment.
The man of speculative^mind may stake all on the
lure of a high starting salary, without a thought to
the company which gives it or where this may lead
him in ten years. True, his opportunism may reap
exceptional profit; or else a loss.
The man who knows that great things develop
slowly will be content with six months' progress in
six months' time—provided he is investing that
time in a company which offers him a future.
You who are about to invest, satisfy yourself that
the security you are getting is gilt-edged.

Young, the new Business Manager,
could not escape the sharp eye of
the tciastmaster and two speeches
was the result. A former Editor-in-
Chief of the college weekly, Alex
Saunders, was also a guest and
made a splendid talk with words
of advice.
The remainder of the time was
given to short talks from various
members of the | staff of this } -al­and
of the incoming staff. It was
concluded with a farewell speech
from Fred Alingren. Quite inform­al
in nature, the banquet was an
occasion of enjoyment for all pres­ent
and plans were made for a
continuance of the precedent which
has been set. A keener interest
in student publications was made
manifest and The Plainsman ap­preciates
the many kind words of
congratulation which were spoken
by various speakers in its behalf.
which made it so enjoyable.
