Coach Announces His Decsion
When Called on for Talk
With the announcement early Fri­day
evening of David B. Moray's re­signation
as head coach of the Ala*
bama Polytechnic Institute, Auburn
faced a crisis on the ere of the annual
homecoming football classic.
Announcement Unexpected
At the greatest mass meeting ever
seen at Auburn, the beloved Coach
announced his attitude to an awe
stricken student body. The resigna­tion
handed to Dr. Dowell yesterday
will take effect tonight, was the an­nouncement
as made by Coach Mo-rey,
in his brief address.
The speaker reviewed his years at
Auburn and expressed his love for
the institution in no uncertain terms.
The student body was quick to place
itself solidly behind the Coach, and
backed him to a man. This stunning
news left the students with little en­thusiasm
for the mass meeting.
Coach Morey came to Auburn in
the fall of 1925 as head coach at the
helm of the Tiger football team. He
came to the Plains after having spent

This Year Given
Out by Registrar
Over Fifteen Hundred Students
Enrolled
The student enrollment at Auburn
for the year 1927-28 again goes over
the 1500 mark, as shown by figures
from the registrar's office. Dispell­ing
rumors that the student body is
greatly lessened this year, the total
enrollment of 1536 students as com­pared
to the 1463 students enrolled
at mid-semester last year shows 5
percent gain in number of students
instead of a loss.
As usual, the freshman class en­rolled
the greatest number, 464. How­ever,
the Sophomore class with 425
students is a close contender for en­rollment
prestige. Next in line are
the Juniors, with 314 students on its
roll and then come the seniors and
fifth year students. Aside from
these enrolled in regular classes there
are 15 special students and 11 grad­uate
students. So far this year 11
men have been unable to stand the
pace and have resigned.

Featuring the many events of
Homecoming Day, the 1927 Auburn
Tigers will clash with the strong
University of Florida outfit on Drake
Field. This will mark the continua­tion
of football relations between
Auburn and Florida teams, with all
of the previous tilts being won by the
Plainsmen. But, the Gators boast of
a strong and mighty crew; sun
browned and ready to go. Opposing
their best wishes will be a rejuvenat­ed
Tiger Eleven. Morey is also de­termined
to come across on the win­ning
side and- will spare nothing to
gain his end.
Twice the Orange and Blue lads
have gone into the fray, only to be
victims of chance, and were turned
away with the short end of the
score card. The third time is due to
be the climax. A climax much look­ed
forward to, for Auburn has not
lost but one Homecoming game on re­cords.
This Saturday , the entire
squad will be physically fit and in the
best of spirits. All of the injured
have returned to their regular berths
ready to give their best.
As to the visitors, not a little is to
be said. They not only boast of a
strong Eleven, but actually have one.
In their first two games surprising
results appeared. First they triump-ed
over the mighty aggregation from
Southern College, 26-7. Crabtree,
light-footed quarter-back succeeded in
getting lose for 67 yards' in this fray.
The second game proved an upsett to
all obtainable dope. Davidson, S. I.
A. A. representative, came out on top
with a 12-0 score. Yet the main stays
of the Florida team were out on the
.injured list, Crabtree and Middle-kauf
being among those out. And,
there's the foreign dope. They're
here, they can see, but they'll never

their pledges: Misses Emma Jo At­kins,
Auburn; Ruth Frisbie, Auburn;
Margaret Lowrenz, Elberta; Edna

Miss Dobbs Praises Conduct of
Boys
"With the exception of too much
dating after 12o'clock Saturday
night, the opening dances were the
quietest and best behaved dances to
date," according to Miss Zoe Dobbs,
director of social activities at Au­burn.
She further stated that they
were the most sober dances on record
during the sixteen jubilees.
"Of course", Miss Dobbs contin­ued,
"I don't want the boys to think
that there was absolutely no drink­ing
for there was, but there was much
less of it".
Tnere was an excellent personnel
and everyone seemed to have more
wholesome fun. The campus was
much quieter this time, and other
than the exception of late Saturday",
Miss Dobbs concluded, "I have no
criticism to make."

J. A. Walker Talks
At Convocation
Senator J. A. Walker, of Opelika,
held the entire hall in profound in­terest
for thirty minutes with his
relation of Legislative measures in
regard to increased state funds for
Auburn.
Senator Walker, having receiver a
Bachelor's degree from Auburn in
1908 and Master's in 1909 has his
heart in the advancement of Auburn,
and effectively set forth his plans
along this line in his brilliant speech.
Last weeks convocation period was
featured by Dr. Tidwell's speech along
the same line. This move is of ex­ceeding
interest to the student body
and was manifested by attentive lis­tening.
A Correction
Last week's Plainsman contained
an elaborate description of Dr. Tho­mas'
new home, but mentioned the
fact that it was given him by the
college. This is a mistake. The col­lege
had nothing to do with the build­ing
of the house. It was built en­tirely
by the personal funds of Dr.
Thomas.

In a War Department Bulletin just
received at Fourth Corps Area Head­quarters,
thirty-five young men from
the Distinguished Colleges and
Honor Military Schools of the Corps
Area were named as Honor Grad­uates.
Young men so designated for excel­ling
in military training and scholas­tic
standing were as follows:
Frbm Alabama Polytechnic Insti­tute,
Auburn, Ala., John E. Barnes,
Clyde Hendrix,, Forney H. Ingram,
Harris S. Lynne, Win. H. Putnam,
and John^M. Wilder. '
Among other colleges and schools
having honor graduates were Georgia
Tech with seven,-Clemson, Louisana
State four, Florida three, Georgia
Military Academy three, Riverside
three-and Davidson College two.
For the entire United State but one
hundred and fifty-five honor grad­uates
were designated. Based only
on population, the proportion for the
Fourth Corps Area would have been
but seventeen.

Athletes to Hold
Dance Saturday
In Alumni Gym.
An attractive feature of this year's
-Homecoming Day will be the "A"
Club dance to be given Saturday
night at the Alumnae Gymnasium.
Elaborate plans have been made by
the. committee in charge and an en­joyable
time is promised all of those
who attend. The Florida game is
drawing many visitors to Auburn, a
large percentage of whom are expect­ed
to attend the dance, which starts
at nine o'clock and ends at twelve
sharp.
Music for the affair will be fur­nished
by the school Orchestra, com­posed
of eight students who are said
to furnish as good music as can be
found anywhere. The Orchestra is
composed of the following: Charline
Baughman, Max Jones, Jimmy Ware,
Levin Foster,. S. A. Hardin, Jimmy
Cone, J. B. Jones and J. Brown.
From all indications it promises to
be the best dance that the "A" Club
has given in many a day. Don't miss
it.

By Order of Major Kennedy,
W. B. Higgins, 1st. Lt., C. E.
Adjutant.
Enters Army Early
General Wood was born at Win­chester,
N. H., Oct. 9, 1860, and first
entered his career of service in 1886,
when he was appointed assistant Sur­geon,
U. S. A. He immediately saw
active service in the Indian Cam­paigns
and was awarded the Congres­sional
Medal of Honor "for disting­uished
conduct in Indian Campaigns,
as a Medical and line officer in 1886."
On May 8, 1898 he was promoted to
Colonel and placed in command of
1st U. S. Volunteer Cavalry, more fa­miliarly
known as the famous "Rough

the Phillipine Islands, which office
he held until the date of his death,
August 7, 1927.
Serves With Distinction
Although educated for the medical
profession and appointed to the Army
as a medical Officer, he early demon­strated
his capacity for the military
profession, and served with distinc­tion
as a line Officer throughout his
career. In addition to holding the
position of Chief of Staff of the

that ranks high among the journals
of the engineering colleges throughout the
United States. This year will see the rise
of The Auburn Engineer to even greater

in getting support from the engi­neering
students. • This is deplorable be­cause
the publication is one of merit. To
date there are only two hundred three sub­scribers
and before the publication can ba
recognized by the national engineering
magazines assiciated the subscriptions
must total seventy five per cent of the total
number of students in the engineering
school. It is therefore necessary for Au­burn
engineers to lend their support tb the
publication. Five hundred twenty more
engineers must subscribe before the Au­burn

LET US LIVE TODAY
The man who cannot think, cannot con­centrate
is not educated regardless of the
number of college degrees he may have. In
713 B. C. was written this prophecy of the
modern motor car: "The chariots shall rage
in the streets, they shall justle one against
another in the broad ways; they shall seem
like torches, they shall run'like the lighten­ing^"
One of the time honored traditions at
Auburn is that of giving a cordial greeting
to those one meets on the streets or campus.
Lest some should be neglectful let us re­mind
you to have a cheery "hello" for
everybody. It calls for little effort on your
part and goes a long way toward making
life worth while.
Many students conceive the idea that
they will not enter into student affairs.
These students are constantly ready and
willing to criticise. They are are in the
habit of making no mistakes because they
do nothing. Those of a retiring nature
should enter into discussions of vital inter­est
to them for by so doing they are de­veloping
themselves and helping the stu­dent
body. If radical measures are under
discussion those who oppose such should
openly express themselves. Above all it is
not always best to be with the crowd. It
is well to remember that there are three~
sides to every question. It is best to first
investigate, weigh, then act. Pope has
truly said "Be not the first by whom the
new are tried nor yet the last to lay the
last to lay the old aside."
THROW OUT THE LIFE LINE
According to a statement made public
by the Dean of the School of Engineering
we note that there- are a total of six hun­dred
eight eight students enrolled who
come under his jurisdiction. There are
three hundred twenty eight electricals, one
hundred forty five civils, sixty seven
chemicals, twenty nine architectural and
WELCOME ALUMNI
Both the college faculty and the student
body of Auburn heartily welcome the
alumni who are visiting the institution this
week-end. It is hoped that the work the
institution is now doing and has been doing
in the past is a credit to^them as alumni.
Auburn is proud of its alumni arid great­ly
indebted to them for the benefits' it has
derived from their efforts. The numerous
accomplishments they have attained after
passing beyond its red brick walls have
served to uphold the standards of the'in-stitution.'
No doubt it will be found that in some
cases some will find that a, few changes
have taken place in Auburn, while others
will find a number of decided improvements.
These have been brought about by progress,
based on the work done in the past by Au­burn
men as well as by outsiders.
It will also be found that there still re­mains
the old Auburn spirit which has
ever been handed down to Auburn men.
This spirit still exists in its truest form-one
of friendship arid good sportsmanship.
May Auburn continue to advance and
gain each year over the past so that in the
years to come, we who are now students,
may look back and discern how Auburn
has progressed materially as well as spirit­ually,
approaching a perfect day.
SPEAKING GOOD ENGLISH
For a number of years it has been a
custom for the majority of college students
to use slang to some extent in their every
day associations and on the campus. In
some cases it is almost natural. However
such a habit has, from experience, develop­ed
into a slothfulness in the use of the Eng­lish
language. This is especiaaly notice­able
on the Auburn campus.
Several days ago a number of students
were crowed in the student supply shop,
among whom were several co-eds. Ensuing
from a conversation, among these ladies,
on clothing one of them was heard to say
in a tone, above all the others, "They ain't
got no such dress." An out-of-town visitor
happened to Be standing near and heard
the expression. He was immediately struck
and indignantly remarked to ,orie near-by,
"Is that the kind of English that is taught
to the college students at Auburn?"
vNo doubt the one guilty of the expres­sion
knows better, but through careless­ness
failed to observe how it may sound or
realizes just to what an undesirable .habit
it will lead.
This is merely one of the many instances
which occur each day among the various
groups of students as they gather or meet
on the campus and on the streets. Prob­ably
some of the expressions are heard only
locally but think of the terrible habit that
is being acquired!
If everyone will watch his use of his
grammar more closely each day and try to
go beyond the primitive stage of slang and
incorrect phrasing he will find to how
great an extent it will aid him individually
as well as- prevent outsiders from forming
the wrong impression of Auburn and its
teachings.
HAS FIFTY-FIVE YEARS OF AUBURN
SPIRIT COME TO THIS?
The Plainsman's attention has • been
drawn to the following article printed in a
Covington County newspaper. This letter,
sent by a college boy to his Father, was
used as an argument against further state
appropriations to the various colleges in
Alabama. Purely by. accident we happen
to know that this letter was written by an
AUBURN RAT.
Such are the facts in the case. Needless
to say the Rats name will not be given out,
as we still have some elements of mercy
left in us, even in the face of such a damn­ing
epistle as this.
We would like to ask the student body if
they consider this the way that an Au­burn
man should express himself. Apart
from the fact that this greatly exaggerat­ed
and grossly untrue outline of affairs at
Auburn was used in a serious attempt to
persuade the voters of Alabama not to give
any money to the state colleges, when they
need it so badly, we are especially humi-ated
to think that we have men of this
calibre registered in Auburn. It seems a
great pity to us that such men as these
should even be allowed on the football field,
let alone forced to yell themselves hoarse
in support of the team. But read the
letter for yourselves, and draw your own
conclusions.
Some Things That The Tax Payer's Money
Is Going For
The following extracts are from a letter
written by a Covington County boy who
is. trying to get an education. He is now
in college. We will leave the name of the
college blank, also withhold the boy's
name. But the original letter is before
us. It was written by the boy to his father
and was not intended for publication so
we will merely quote portions of it which
wil} show what one goes up against when
he goes to college. And while we are read­ing
this, we might remember that millions
of dollars of tax money squeezed out of
the people of the state are being used to
keep such things going on in the name of
education. And we are going to be called
on to vote a 20-million dollars bond issue,
soon. We are wondering if a large portion
of it is going to be used to keep up such
things as this boy says exists in one of
our public institutions. --.

HALIBURTON TO THE ROAD AGAIN
Not so very long ago Richard Haliburton
went a-tramping and later wrote about it
profitably in The Royal Road to Romance,
a Bobbs-Merrill best seller. He had a
good time according to his book. He watch­ed
a sun rise over the- Alps from the sum­mit
of the Matterhorn; he watched a moon
sail across the sky from the summit of Gil-bralter;
he swam a starlight Nile, and
loved a pale Kashmuri maiden beside the
Shalimar.
Then he came home,, but on" a day in an
idle hour he picked up his Tennyson and
turned to Ulysses. That was the starter
for The Glorious Adventure recently pub­lished.
With the Odyssey for a guide-book,
off he set on the trail of Ulysses. What is
more, he followed it!

THEN AND NOW
Reminiscences from the Orange and Blue,
issue of Saturday, Oct. 5,~ 1912
Appearing on the front page of this issue
is a poem, entitled "My Girl," which sets
forth in radiant manner the gesticulations
of some poor victim of the now common
affliction—love. One particular line car­ries
on thus: "I love her—anybody would."
Nowadays we note that poems of this
nature aren't usually sent through the
columns of a paper; instead they are ten­derly
delivered in person, the dainty ear
of the object being the mailbox. Suffer us
to reconstruct the line quoted above, how­ever,
so that it may fit modern occasions:
"I love her—everbody does!"
* * * * * _
The previous" issue carries a rather ela­borate
poem on the editorial page, entitled
"Little Lady."
WHAT IS THY NAME
Did you bring a name with you when
you came to college? If so what do you
intend to make of it? These are questions
that concern the individual. In reply one
might ask, what is a name? To the au­thor
of a book it means sales, to the actor
it means popularity, to the manufacturer
success. Those who have gone before have
spent their lives to make names that have'
become bywords. Is not the reward ample
compensation for our effdrts? A good
name brings honor to ourselves, glory to
our God, gratification to those who love us
and an inspiration to our fellow men. Is
it then not worth something? Then why
not strive to make, it worthwhile? _

-mere were eleven ivem soda-water
bottles full of booze drank in the house
where I am boarding. I didn't see it going
on, but the bottles were in the bath room
next morning, when I went to bathe. I
haven't seen any more here since then, but
I have been told that there is much drink­ing
at the dances here. Then there is
another thing that goes on here that is
much worse. A girl who Has any decency
about her would never come here to school
if she knew how things are here. I have
found that it isnot a place for me, either.
Whatever an upper classman wants a
freshman to do, he must do it regardles-j
of what it is, or get one of the hardest
beatings he ever got in his life. They make
the freshman go to the football games, or
anything else they take a notion to send
them to. They make the freshman go -to
fihe "pep meetings" and holler themselves
hoarse and use such language I would not
have mother or sister listen at for anything
in the world; still they claim it is all right.
The preachers (?) here support it too by
being present at every one of them. Girls
and boys all go to this hyprocritical, half-crazed,
ignorant mass of mush. It would
not bother me so much if they would let me
alone and praise the Devil for themselves.
They will tell you that you don't have tp
'take part in these affairs; but at the same
time they cast a threat on you with a board
if you don't. My roommate, who came
here from •—said it was not any
worse, if not better, there than it is here.
He said there was no distinction between
a freshman nor any other person there. If
this place is the best, or one of the best
places for me to get an education,- I don't
want it. I would rather be a gentleman.
I think I could work out my own educa­tion
from books, and have one that would
do me as much good as any I would get
here. I know it would not. cost as much,
(about $400 a year cheaper, to be exact).
If I have to come back here after Christ­mas,
I am through, ABSOLUTELY
THROUGH. There have already been sev­eral
to leave here, by order of their parents
and return home. Several more have said
they hoped they would not be sent back
after Christmas.
"Now, Papa, I know you will think I am
mad while I am writing this. But I feel
the best I have since I have been here. I
haven't been mad since yesterday evening
when they made me holler myself hoarse at
the football game. But I haven't failed
to say just what I thought. I didn't say
all I think, though; that would take too
much space. I know when my character
is being imposed upon. You never have
thought as much of the as I think
So the woman theory is by no means new.

• President James Rowland Angell, of
Yale, defended his tribe of prexies when
the New York Times declared editorially
that college heads are not selected from
the company of scholars. We believe that
the head of a college should be a business
man whose primary purpose it is to get
money for the college. If students want
personal contact then have a dean of men
to call everybody by their first name. The
•day when the president is required to be a
scholar is fast disappearing.
According to the New Student the fresh­man
enrollment at the University of
Michigan is 200 less than last year. It is
thought that the ban on automobiles has
been responsible for the decrease.
Twenty one college and university presi­dents,
not one promoted from the faculty
or chosen from the state, were elected in
1927, says the Journal of Education. None
of the new presidents were subject specia­lists,
or engaged in political or business
careers. While the Journal suggests that
this range of selection is indicative of an
underlying movement, it does not offer an
explanation.

If modesty ever were a virtue, it is a
lost virtue now. In proof of this state­ment
we have only to recite the story of
the co-ed who in arranging her schedule in
Home Economics was not sure of what
she had to take. The tale goes that a cer­tain
well-known co-ed went into Dean
Judd's, office to put the finishing touches
on her "schedule. After she had given the
little white slips to the Dean for his ap­proval,
she suddenly exclaimed, "I've for­gotten
something. Oh! it's my Clothing."
Now if the Dean had not been a man who
had learned to think swiftly and act even
more so, he might have been in a pickle.

HOME EC. CLUB
By way of introduction on the cam
pus, the Home Economics Club
showed its spirit by entertaining the
new Home Economics Students ai'd
the Agricultural Clubs Friday night
in front of Comer Hall.
The guests were served punch as
they entered the campus. When all
arrived, games began by the first
being a "Tie To-gether" game. 'Each
man struggled to unwind his string
from the trees or posts to find his al­lotted
partner at the other end. This
game was followed by many other ac­tive
and interesting one, after which
all enjoyed the victrola music.
In the eight states comprising the
Fourth Corps Area 798 R. O. T. C.
students of twenty four institutions
were rectnly awarded commissions as
Second Lieutenants in the Officers
Reserve Corps. Based on the nam
ber commissioned to the strength of
the entire student body, the percent­ages
places Clemson Agricultural
College first, the Citadel, second,
Alabama Polytechnic Institute, third
and. Georgia Tech fourth, though in
actual numbers commissioned Geor­gia
Tech stood first, Clemson College
second and Alabama Polytechnic
third with all of them close.
In the entire United States and
Hawaii 98 per cent of those offered
commissions, accepted them, whereas
in this Corps Area, according to the
records at Headquarters, not a single
R. 0. T. C. student declined the com­mission
tenderd him.
This reveals a gratifying record
for the entire country and particul­arly
for this Corps Area. It indic­ates
the popularity of R. O. T.- C.
training among the youth of the
country and the appreciation of its

Sweet and mild and long-burning.
So mild, in fact, that it never

SUGGSTRESSES
SANITATION
"Farm sanitation is just everyday
common sense," declared R. S:
Suggs, assistant professor of the
Veterinary department, to the Ag.
club at the regular Wednesday night
program.
Dr. Suggs was introduced to the
club by Pres. Williams in connection
with the speaker for the next meet­ing
which will be Dr. McAdory, also
of the Veterinary department.
There are three classes of diseases
that were mentioned by Dr. Suggs,
which are nutritional, parasitic, and
infections. These are all prevalent
over the country at all times. Nu­tritional
and parasitic diseases are
very numerous while there are only
twenty-five or thirty infectious dis-seases
known. When it comes to the
nutritional diseases something has to
be done to furnish better balanced
and better prepared rations," Dr.
Suggs, declared. He also" said, "the
chief way of handling parasitic dis­eases
is by a general rotation of feed­ing
places of the flock or herd."
"Infectious diseases must be hand­led
in a very sepcif ic way or the dam­age
is done immediately," declared,
t h e speaker. Further statement
brought out the fact that, the sick
animal should be removed and diag­nosed,
the source of trouble should be
found, the other animals vaccinated
—provided the disease is controlled by
vaccination—, and a' general clean­up
and disinfection given all the hous­ing
places of the animals. The sun­light
is one of the best disinfectants.
H. G. McCall said the farmer must
wake up and produce more per man
hour. This can be done only by the
most efficient use of machinery, sucb
as, the tractor, grain reaper, binder,
etc.
E. V. Smith gave a historical de­velopment
f>f the growth t>f a seed
cleaning machine which is being used
for the separation of weed seeds from
desirable seeds.
Know­ledge,
but also one for picnics.
Monday night, the second picnic of
the season was given at Comer Hall
by Miss Louise Glanto, Head of the
Home Economics Department to the
Home Economics girls.
The girls grouped on the front
steps of the Hall ^where they were
-served supper with lemonade follow­ed
by chocolate and caramel cream
"galore."
The honored guests of the picnic
were: Mrs. Spright Dowell, Miss Zoe
Dobbs, Miss Dana Gatchell, Miss
Henrietta Thompson and Miss Pal­mer.

Auburn Rats Tie
Howard Pups in
0-0 Game Here
Tiger Yearlings Drive Into Scoring
Distance Twice, Fumbles Costly
The Auburn freshmen and the
freshmen of Howard College battled
through four stubborn quarters with
neither team able to push over a
touchdown and the game ended in
a 0 to 0.status here Saturday.
While the Bullpups put up a good
brand of football, it was generally
conceded that the baby plainsmen
held a silght edge, inasmuch as most
of the playing was done Th Howard
territory and the charges of Coach
Brown threatened seriously on two
occasions to score while the Birming­ham
lads, never handed a scare to the
Auburnites.
Near the end of the first half a
pass, Bell to Culpepper, for Auburn,
put the ball in Auburn's possession
on Howard's 15 yard line. Bell and
Wingo alternating the ball forced the
Lollar lads to their own four yard
line when a fumble on the second
down lost possession of the ball for
Auburn. A fumble again by the local
lads in the third quarter on Howard's
12 yard line lost another opportunity
that looked like an opportune time to
carry over the winning counter. But
with these two exceptions the ball
was kept near midfield, except when
booted out by the two elevens. Punt­ing
of a high character was frequent
by both teams.
For Auburn on the line Big Boy
Newton, substituting for Jacob at
tackle played a fine game, as did
Jacob before his retirement. Har-kins
at center, Baby Taylor at tackle
and Dreaden also at tackle, were out­standing.
Hill, local lad, Lee County
Hi., handled his job in the line well
In the back division Quarterback
Chambless stood foremost in the lime
light. He displayed fine generalship
for a freshman, was effective in ad­vancing
the ball, and handled his
played a good defensive game as did
Herron. The big outstanding fea­ture
from the Auburn viewpoint was
the freshman line. The entire lineup
made an excellent oppearance in its
debut into Auburn football.
For Howard, Raymond Davis, a
big 190-pound center from Anniston,
was easily the star. Davis is big,
shifty, and time and again stood out
on both offensive and defensive play.
Capt. Hargrove at tackle, Memphis
lad, played a stellar game of football.
"Fatty" Simpson, .Birmingham lad,
was a good guard. In the back de­partment
Tompkins at half, Jones
who substituted for Bullard of Bir­mingham,
and Morris, another Bir­mingham
boy, were the outstanding.
"NICK" CARTER
Take a look and see if we have not
seen this gentleman before. Sure we
have, for it is old "Nick" Carter, who
is always on the jow when the Tigers
are in action. Carter is just a natur­al
football player as anyone knows
who has seen him. He is over six
feet tall, and is well proportioned.
He is a player that really hits a man
hard when he tackles, for he has
that fighting Tiger spirit that stays
with him from! the time the game
starts until the last whistle is blown.
Carter's home is in Blountsville,
where he played four years of foot­ball
in high school. When he came
to Auburn, he played on the Fresh­man
team, where he was one of the
main stays on the line.
Last year "Nick" made the varsity,
and was one of our best linemen,
even though it was his first year. He
had a wonderful year, and received
several bids for all-Southern, which
is one of the greatest honors that a
football player can receive.
Even though we have only played
two games this season, we have seen
that Carter is even better this year
than he was last, if such a thing is
possible. He has not forgotten the
knack of breaking through the
eneiriie'sniHe~snu tnrowmg^mem J.UI
losses.
"We're all behind you, Carter."
The lineup:
Auburn—Griffin and Culpepper,
ends; Jacob and Taylor, tackles;

In The Enemy Camps
L. S. U.
L. S. U. easily overcame South­western
Louisiana institute in Baton
Rouge last Saturday by a score of
52 to 0. This is the last non-confer­ence
game that she will play before
encountering the University of Ala­bama
this week.
The Tigers missed the services of
Captain Godfrey, who was out on ac­count
of a slight injury. He is one
of the main stays on the team, and it
is hoped that he will be ready to go
in the game next week.
Southwestern had a one-man team
in Klorr, who was a triple threat
man. He was in almost every play,
and was good on offense and defense.
L. S. U. did not have much luck at
passes, but hit the line time after
time for long gains. The men that
gained most for Donahue's team were
Mason, Brown, Stovall, and Renfro.
The Cavaliers fought until the end
of the game, but were outclassed all
the way through.
The closest that Virginia got to
Georgia's goal was at the close of
the game, when she reached the Bull­dogs
25 yard line.
During the whole" game, the Bull­dogs
had the fight and drive needed
to win a game.
GEORGIA
The University of Georgia beat
Virginia 32 to 0 in an impressive
game in Athens. The Bulldogs were
led by McCrary, who played fullback
and was alone responsible for making
a touchdown every quarter.
There had been some talk of the
teams being pretty evenly matched,
and some were afraid that the Bull­dogs
would be whipped. This un­easiness
was quickly forgotten when
the action started. Georgia's defense
was great, for time and again they
held the fast Virginia backs without
any gain.
HOWARD
Howard and Loyola staged a hectic
battle in Birmingham last week,
which ended in a 0 to 0 tie. It was
one of the most hard fought games
on record, and it showed Howard as
having a real football team.
"Bucky" Moore, star quarterback
for Loyola, made many substantial
gains, but was knocked out in the
second period by Brown, Howard
tackle, after a 20 yard run. His
headgear was all that kept him from
being killed, and he was unconscious
for several hours, suffering/ from a
head injury.
Billy Bancroft led the attack for the
Bulldogs, and played a good brand
of football.
There were three reasons that
Loyola was able to keep their goal
line uncrossed. The breaks went to
them, and they outpunted and out-passed
Howard. Howard, however,
had a line that could not be passed
over. There was some wonderful
playing done by each team. Each
had sworn that the other could not
pass.

There were not many long gains
made during the game, and every time
one team would get close to the goal,
something would happen to start the
ball back.
This game will be long remembered
in Birmingham, as one time when the
dope was upset, and Howard held the
fast Loyola team to a tie.
TULANE
The Tulane Greenies came from be­hind
to win from 'Ole Miss in a game
in New Orleans last week. The fi­nal
score was 19 to 7.
This victory has made the follow­ers
of Tulane very enthusiastic over
their chance for contending for the
S. C. title.
The Mississippi bunch outplayed
the Greenies in £he first quarter, by
tory on short passes. A penalty and
several plays put the ball on Tulane's
35 yard line. Walker made a beauti­ful
run through Tulane's defense, but
was stopped on the 10 yard line.
After two plays Smith made the
touchdown, and Walker placed kick­ed
for the extra point.
The Green Wave came back fight­ing
hard in the second quarter, and
Pizzano recovered a fumble on Mis­sissippi's
25-yard line. Banker car­ried
the ball to Mississippi's 4-yard
line and then went over for the first
counter. Menville kicked goal.
In the fourth quarter Banker and
Menville hit the line many times and
Banker took the oval over from the
one yard line, and the dropkick was

MISS. A. and M.
A. and M. beat Birmingham South­ern
27 to 0 in the opening game for
the Aggies. They used only straight
football every time except twice,
when two passes were tried, one of
which was good.
A. and M/ made two touchdowns
in the first five minutes of play. At
first the teams exchanged punts and
the ball was fn A. and M.'s possession
on the 50 yard line. Peppenheimer,
star of the Aggies, got the pigskin
and went around end for the sensa
tional play of the game, and made the
first touchdown. Shadwick was suc­cessful
in making the extra point by
placement kick. A few minutes later
Bham. Sou. kicked and the Aggies
came into possession of the ball on
their own 40 yard line. Then Peppen­heimer
raced across the line for the
second score. His interference was
.good.
In the third quarter the Panthers
completed several passes, and were
making good gains on every play, and
got as far as the 10 yard line, but
were stopped. This was as near as
they came to scoring.
Many substitutions were made by
lach team. Almost everyone on the
Aggie squad got into the game.
Peppenheimer was the most prom­inent
player, making three touch­downs.

GEORGIA TECH
A fumble in Tech's opening game
started the ball to rolling against V.
M. I. in the third quarter, and ended
up with the lone touchdown which
beat the Cadets 7 to 0.
There had been very little ground
gained up until near the end of the
third quarter, and Tech had done
much fumbling. The team that
started off the game was composed
of the oldest players, but in the
second quarter, a new team was put
in with the exception of Capt. Crow­ley.
Two sophomores, Thomason and
Mizell, showed fine form in their
first varsity performance, and were
largely responsible for the touch­down.
The way it came about was that
V. M. I. punted out of bounds on
Tech's ten yard line. Mizell started
through left tackle and fumbled, but
Spears, a sophomore, recovered the
ball and gained ten yards for first
down. Then Mizell had better luck,
and went around end for 17 yards.
This put the ball on Tech's own 40
yard line. Then the backs started a
hard drive down the field, and Mizell
finally carried the ball over from the
two yard line.
The Cadet's line outplayed the
Yellow Jacket's line, but was on the
verge of collapse when the game end­ed.
Barnes of V. M. I. played a brilli­ant
game at half-back, and carried
the ball more effectively than any
other player on the field with the
possible exception of Stumpy Thoma­son.
Thomason, who only played fif­teen
minutes, showed the fans some
real side-stepping and pivoting .
Stick McCarley got four, Bob Mc­Carley
skirted right end for 12 and
first down. Stick got two at the
line. A pass failed and Eskew punt-

CROSS COUNTRYMEN REPORT
TO COACH HUTSELL FOR DUTY
Numerous Frosh Answer the Initial Call For
Freshmen
HOPSON PEARCE
Hopson Pearce, who is seen above,
is one of the hardest fighting men on
the Tiger squad. He puts his whole
heart into the game, just because he
loves to play. He is one of the
tackles, and really lives up to his
position, as we have seen many times.
Hopson is from Aliceville, where
he had two years of good football ex­perience
. at the Aliceville Hi. He
made the Frosh team after coming
to the loveliest "Village of the Plains"
and scrubbed his Soph. year. He
was on the track team 'his second
year here, in the capacity of javelin
thrower.
Last year Pearce made the varsity,
and was one of our best players. It
took some good men to keep him from
breaking through the opponent's line.
A good example of this was in the
Tulane game last year, when he
fought the Grenies from- start to fin­ish.
He was the cause of Auburn
scoring on them for he fell on the
all that an Auburn player had
blocked, thus giving us a safety. This
was'his best game, but he played some
riore good games.
Mr. Pearce is not only active on
the football field, but takes a big
part in other student activities. He
is President of the Student Council
and also President of the "Y." He is
one of the busiest men on the campus,
and we all take off our hats to him.
Pearce says that he is going to do
his part in sending the 'Gators back to
Florida in defeat.
"'At a boy, Hopson."
As. football enters into its prime
and draws the attention of the ma­jority
of the students and Southern
Sports in general; another branch of
athletics springs up and endeavors to
take shape. Coach Hutsell, demon
track coach at Auburn for quite a
few years, decided last week that the
time for all good prospects to come
out and display their wares for his
judgment had arrived. Answering
the first call, some three score track
men appeared at the Gym. Of these
about half were Freshmen, all of un-kndwn
ability but ready to give their
Southern Conference road-race held
at Athens, Georgia, last fall, the Ti­ger
harriers were second. The strong
University of North Caroline lads
taking the first medal. S. Morrow,
competed in the S. C. race and is back
again to give his best.
Besides the old men mentioned
above there are quite a few likely
candidates out for a place on the
team. These men are all under the
eye of Hutsell, who is endeavoring to
quicken their pace, improve their
form and harden their muscles. This
list includes: Aldrich, Clayton, Yancy,
best to bring up the high standard Teague, Mills, McLendon, Hicks, Wil-upheld
by Auburn Track Teams. son and H. Morrow. All are training
The cross-country outfit this sea­son
is the most in-experienced that
Hutsell has had to whip into shape in
several years. The three high scor­ers
at the Birmingham Road-race
have departed. This leaves the
Orange and Blue runers with practic­ally
no chance of duplicating last
years feat of winning the meet. The
three varsity runners that are lost to
us are: Collum, Morrow, and Whig-ham,
who came in second, fourth, and
eighth respectivelyi at the Magic City
race. There are three veterans left
from that race. Their names and
the order in which they finished are:
Duncan, thirteenth; Walters, nine­teenth;
Helms, thirty first. At the

every evening with their ambitions
equal to a place on Coach Wilbur's
squad.-
And as the football season goes
on, so some of the very best track
men on the campus are kept in train­ing.
Among the varsity players are
listed several of Hutsell's stars. Most
prominent among these are: Snitz
Snider, dash demon of the South for
the past several years, Captain of
the 1928 Track team; Tamplin, Al­ternate-
Captain, Nick Carter, Sam
Robinson, Mike Fisher, Cosper,
Granger, Kirkwood, Pearce and
Turner. All of the above were on
last years squad and will report as
soon as the Thanksgiving game is a
thing of the past.
Among the other varsity men that
will report for Fall training are:
Beard, who is being groomed to fill
Captain Baskin's shoes; Broughton,
sprint man; Creel, pole vaulter;
Stoves and Upshaw in the javelin;
Virgin, Anderson, Burnet, and "Notre
Dame" Heinz in the jumps. This is
only a partial list of the men com­peting
for the different places, but
a few of the most promising lads are
named in the list.
As to the "Rats", there is not much
to be said. Their ability is as yet
doubtful to the extent that they have
not been able to display their merits
in action. However, there should be
plenty of good material considering
the large number out. At present,
Coach Hutsell is sending them
through very light workouts, trying
to get them into shape and hardening
their muscles.

SOCIAL SCIENCE CLUB
The most interesting meeting of
club, thus far was held Monday
night. The meeting was called to
order promptly at. seven o'clock. A
most interesting program was ren­dered,
under the supervision of Coke
Matthews. Randle gave some inter­esting
data on the extent of Lind­bergh's
mail. He named several hu­morous
incidents connected with Lind­bergh's
correspondence; proposals of
marriage, business offers, jnovie con­tracts
and many absurd propositions
received by the here. Following this
Bob McKinnon and Charles Moore
sang a couple of duets which were
greatly enjoyed, as shown by the ap-,
plause accorded them.
The Club was indeed fortunate in
having Dr. Scott present, who gave
an. interesting survey of the major so­cial
problems of the world today. He
maintains that the problems of pro­duction
has practically been- solved
but that the distribution of returns
is the greatest question confronting
the human race today. Professors

WEBSTERIAN
The WebSterian Literary Society
met Tuesday night, the crowd was a
little short on account of some other
activities on the campus, but a very
good program was rendered.
Howard Tidwell gave us a review
of some of the Present Day condi­tions
in Africa. It was very interest­ing,
because it brought to us some of
the customs and beliefs of these na­tives.
Mr. LeCroy told us something of
the philosophy on education and its
use as outlined by Mr. Davis, our
secretary of Labor. "True education
is not that of gathering facts, but
that of drawing out our inner abil­ity,
said he, His talk showed the dif­ferent
customs and traditions of the
past ages, also the influence that re­ligion
and education has had on the
lives of our forefathers. It brought
to our mind what Congressman Up-shaw
said in his talk at convocation
recently, "If our education is not built
on a foundation of religion, it will not
stand."
Mr. Hawkins brought to us facts
concerning the Immigration question,
carrying us back to the time of the
thirteen original colonies and the in­fluence
that these thirteen English
colonies has had on pur lives. His
talk was very much enjoyed, and was
followed by a talk by our President,
Mr. Blankenship. Mr. Blankenship
cited incidents to prove that it is
much worse for the educated immi­grants
to come over and willfully
break the laws of the American
people than it is for the ignorant
ones who know no better.

General Wood's grasp of the af­fairs

administration there as Military Gov­ernor,
made him the outstanding fig­ure
in the improvement of the is­land,
and its preparation for self-government;
his able conduct of his
several commands and the important
office of Chief of Staff, his encour­agement
of the training of citizen sol­diery
and of projects for national de­fense,
were of the greatest usefulness
to the country; and his intimate
knowledge and intelligent estimate
of the needs of the Phillipine peo­ple

conquer!
Following their defeat at the hand
of Josh Cody's mighty passing team,
the Morey lads settled down to the
hard grind of overcoming all odds.
And Coach Morey sent them through
hard practices, scrimmages and
workouts. They went to the field
early and came in late, their form im­proved
and their pace quickened. As
a whole, the entire squad is on its
feet in the pink of condition.
The quarter-back position that has
beent causing the coaches so very
much worry has now been reinforced
and one of the strongest points on
the team. With the veterans,
Hodges and Bogue once more in uni­form
and Luke Ward, friskly Frosh
star, who has been on the sick list,
back; Morey has a very brainy and
varied selection to pick from. Ward
has won for himself the distinction of
being one of the most efficient brok­en
field runners on the campus.
The other weak point has been
with the toe artist, but King David
has developed a pair of huskies that
run under the names of Crawford
and Hartselle, that are good for a
good deal above the average yard­age.
Besides this pair, Buck Ellis,
will do his share of pigskin booting.
Ellis was out of the game last week
due to an injured ankle, but is ready'
for action."

made an enviable record as Coach.
He starred on Major Cavanaugh's
Dartmouth team and won for him­self
an All-American berth at a back-field
position, on Walter Camp's Ail-
American selection.
During his five years at Middle-bury
Coach iiorey's teams were not
defeated by teams of other colleges
of the same rating. With an enroll­ment
of five hundred at the Northern
institution the Tiger mentor bucked
the leading teams of the East and
came through with a lion's share of
victories.
Coach Morey was assigned to assist
iKnute Rockne at Notre Dame in
1920. The following season he took
over the reign at Middlebury and
thence to Auburn.

That it's a real collegiate favorite everywhere
is but one of many honors borne by the jade-green
pen with the little white dot. And because
this Lifetime pen spends most days in the writ­ing
hand and least in repair shops, it is worthy
of all honor. Unconditionally guaranteed
for a lifetime of flawless writing, it costs more
because it is worth more. Its careful, sturdy
construction makes possible the guarantee.
