Three Gubernatorial Candidates Answer
Reporter's Questions On Major Issues
By Mimi Simms
Democratic primaries in our
state determine the outcome of
the general election, which is
merely a formality.
Interest in the May 7 primary
throughout the state is growing
and five candidates are in the
race for governor.
Each of the gubernatorial,candidates
Was asked to state his
position on education, helping
Auburn, the repeal of the poll
tax, and reapportionment, for
Plainsman readers.
J. E. (Big Jim) Folson, who is
a veteran of World War II, is
"sympathetic with any cause
which would be beneficial to veterans,
as well as to the thousands
of students in our Alabama colleges."
He is the only candidate who
openly advocates a constitutional
convention to change the outmoded
constitution. At the convention,
he will recommend that
poll tax be completely abolished
and that the state be reapportioned
according to the latest census.
Gordon Persons. President of
the Alabama Public Service Commission,
is an Auburn man in
the class of '25. "I know only too
well that your present facilities
and faculty are inadequate f or
your needs. This, of course, is
partly due to lack of money and
partly due to the heavy enrollment
of veterans.
"In my platform, you will note
that under 'Income Tax Surplus',
I am earmarking from two to
three million dollars annually
for payment of increased salaries
to teachers. Naturally, this will
include college faculties."
Mr. Persons advocates that the
present poll tax statute be
amended to do away with the
cumulative section and make it.
possible for people to vote upon
the payment of not more than
three years in back taxes.
"I shall urge the Legislature
to perform its duty, as the Constitution
of Alabama provides,"
he says in reference to reapportionment.
"Namely, that the Legislature
shall reapportion its
membership from time to time."
Joe N. Poole. Commission of
Agriculture, is also an Auburn
man. "I will certainly do all I
can to help develop Auburn
when I am governor of Alabama,"
he says. "I have always supported
the legislation which provides
funds for education and I will
continue to do so. Education will
receive my first consideration as
Governor of Alabama."
Favoring a minimum school
program, it is his purpose to make
every effort to procure federal
financial assistance under local
and state control.
In replying to the Plainsman
query, Mr. Poole refused to state
how he stood on the poll tax and
reapportionment issues, but wrote
that "I have ho objection to letting
the people decide the poll
tax and reapportionment issues
for themselves."

Health Officer and secure his
approval of the proposed location,

Health Department, Opelika, or
at the City Hall in Auburn and
Opelika.
OVER 600 STUDENTS
X-RAYED MONDAY
Over 600 students had been
given chest x-rays Monday by 2
p. m., the unit's daily closing time.
A report from the director of student
affairs showed students were
cooperating so that 120 could be
x-rayed every hour.
The Technicans operating the
mobile unit rrom me State Health
Department, Montgomery, will
continue the tests at Student Center
until noon Monday.
The unit is in operation from
8 a. m. to 12 noon and from 1 to
2 p. m. Students unable to report
at the hour designated are asked
to come at a convenient time.
Faculty members may choose a
time convenient to them, except
on Friday afternoon, which is reserved
for Negro employees.
Veterans' wives may also report
at their convenience for the free
x-ray. Children will not be accepted.
Through the modern equipment
used, individual x-rays will take

necessary for the person being
x-rayed to remove his clothing.
Films are developed daily after
2 p. m.
Dr. A. H. Russakoff, acting director
of the division of tuberculosis
control, said, "Persons whose
chest x-rays show a negative reaction,
meaning that there are no
tuberculosis symptoms present,
will receive a card stating that
their x-rays are satisfactory. In
the cases where symptoms are
present, the person concerned will
be called in for an interview and
referred to a private practicing
physician."

Jackson Cottage Burns;
Damages Total $2,000
A fire of undetermined origin
caused the destruction of $2,000
in property damages Sunday afternoon
when the Jackson Cottage,
106 Thomas St., burned,
Homer _ R., CampbelL__fire_ xtuef*.
reports.
The first blaze began on the
top floor and resulted in complete
losses throughout the building,
except spots on the ground floor.
All possessions of two college
boys, Red Snell and Bubber Craft,
were completely destroyed, while
those of other boys were greatly
damaged.
No one is reported to have been
hurt in the fire, but a singed,
half burnt pin-up girl's picture
found tacked in the hallway, the
lines, "Please don't take this, it's
all we have left," printed hurriedly
on the bottom of the sheet,
tends to emphasize the large
losses.
Students living in the top floor
were Carl Copeland, Bob Cannon,
Clarence Norton, Freddie Gafford,
Kare Wilson, Floyd Youngier,
Bubber Craft, and Red Snell.
In an effort to assist these boys,
a group of students, headed by
Teedy Faulk, will solicit funds in
all classes Thursday, April 11.
People not contacted are requested
to deposit contributions with
Emil Wright at the Bank of Auburn.
Lower floor occupants were
Joe Altyneer, David Gammage,
Fred Guest, Levoghn Chavis, Al
ter Robertson, Pat Mclnnis, Al
McLean, and Toby Ward.
Stan Kenton's orchestra was
just another deserving but unappreciated
outfit until Bob Hope
heard it one night in early 1943.
The f a m o us
comedian, who is
c o n s i d e r e d a „^i
shrewd judge of
talent as well as
a master showman
h i m s e l f,
promptly signed
Kenton for t he
famous NBC Pepsodent
program.
"It was our big break," Stan
recalls now. "Skinnay Ennis had
entered the military service and
we drew the job of supplying the
music heard on a program with
a Crossley rating of 40 million
listeners every week. From our
first broadcast with Hope we
gained new momentum."
Quizzes scheduled for Saturday
morning, Apr. 20, will be held
Friday, Apr. 19, at the request of
the Student Social Committee, it
was announced by the Council of
Deans.
. Classes missed on Friday will
be held at the corresponding quiz
period on Saturday, Apr. 20.
Tickets are two dollars per
person, tax included, until Apr.
18, after which they will be $2.50
per person. Tickets will be on
sale at Student Center, Main
Gsfte, and by social cemmittee
representatives.
Dean Marion W. Spidle is
making an exception to the late
permission rule by granting 12:30
permission to women students.
Vocalist. June Christy
The slender, blonde vocalist
featured with Stan's "Artistry in
Rhythm" orchestra was completely
unknown, in music circles, until
her record of "Tampico" with
KertfoiiJs. orchestra was. released
in the summer of last year.
Before she joined Kenton's
band in Chicago, June Christy
had sung with collegiate bands
on the University of Illinois campus.
At 13, in fact, she sang professionally
in her home town of
Decatur, 111.

Philippine Experiences
Told By Col. Dumas
At Army Day Program
Col. A. H. Dumas, Class of '17,
gave a vivid account of his experiences
in training Philippine
troops and a view into the life
he led while in Japanese prison
camps, Saturday morning, Apr.
6, before Army Day celebrators in
the Auburn Stadium.
Included on the speakers list
also was Brig. Gen. R. D. Knapp,
who told of B-25 raids in Italy
while he served in that theatre
of operations.
The Army Day program, sponsored
by the API military department
and various other organizations,
featured the army
and navy military cadets, the
Auburn college and the Opelika
high school bands, and was held
in honor of veterans of World
War I and World War II.
Dumas' Philippine Job
Pointing out his job of training
troops immediately after the
Pearl Harbor attack, Col. Dumas
told of the lack of preparation
which existed in the Philippines.
"We fought hard, and well
enough," said Col. Dumas, "but
we started our job of preparation
too late!"
The survivors of the Death
March reviewed several experiences
while in Japanese prison
camps, and told of how he and
his fellow prisoners did not know
of VJ Dal until many hours after
surrender.
Auburn's B-2S
b _Auburn students and citizens
received a first-hand account of
the part played in the Italian
campaigns by B-25 bombers
from Gen. Knapp, who pointed
out that Auburn was responsible
for the purchase of a B-25 by
war bond sales.
"The B-25 served well," explained
Gen. Knapp, "and was
one of the most effective planes
used in our theater."

Veterans Supplement Subsistence
Checks By Doing Part-Time Work
By Relfe Parker
A survey of the Auburn campus
and downtown business section
revealed that veterans of
World War II are finding the time
and energy to work at various
part-time jobs, which in many
cases gain them the necessary
wherewithal needed to pursue
their war-interrupted education.
Kirtley Brown acts as liason officer
between veteran and employee,
for those interested in extra
money, the college itself being
one of the employees.
Books and Horseplay
For those people who think
books and horseplay don't mix,
they would do well to talk first
with a couple of veterans who are
doing all right for themselves
running a riding academy out on
East Drake. We know of one veteran,
and there may be more, who
is the owner of a cabinet-shop,
fashioning some much-needed
cabinets in downtown stores.
The hash-slingin' and table-waiting
veterans number can only
be estimated, but the known
number plus the ouija-board number
totals in the vicinity of 200.
These men earn their meals—an
expense contributing a major
budget expense.
Seventeen discharge pins were
counted on fellows b e h i nd
soda founts and prescription
counters in an afternoon' travel
about Auburn. (This does not include
Opelika).
Employed by College
In the college offices and labs
veterans are doing part-time jobs,
the nature of which bears directly
on their major subject. Assist-antships
are held by eight veterans
in the School of Engineering.
They are working for their
second baccalaureate degrees, after
having already received their
first from Auburn previous to
the war.
There are also several ex-GI's
aiding in recording grades and
doing lab work in the Engineering
School. Five are working for
the department of chemical engineering,
one veteran having a
graduate assistantship and four
being engaged in laboratory duties.
The college also pays two
veterans to serve as doormen at
campus dances. The Post Office
employs several.
If veterans are earning money
at other jobs, The Plainsman
would like to know about them.
VA Is Liberal
It has been emphasized by W.
K. Askew, training officer for
the Veterans Administration, that
their policy of allowing school-going
veterans to take part-time
employment is quite liberal. Less
than forty hours per week is considered
part-time. Forty hours or
more is recognized as a full-time
job and is discouraged by the
Veterans Administration. As long
as outside earnings don't hazard
scholastic standing this outside
work is not questioned. The fact
that a minimum credit load of 12
hours per quarter must be carried
by the veteran necessarily limits
his extracurricular jobbing.
The two local jump bands include
six 'retired' army and navy
personnel who play while they
work and earn as they learn. A
fine-tooth comb has not yet been
used to ferret out the more obscure
veteran vocations .around
Auburn, but we know more must
exist and say "Keep up the good
work, men."

STUDENTS TO LEARN
AUBURN TRADITIONS
At a meeting called last week
by Bill Cook, head cheerleader,
representatives from campus organizations
met at the President's
home to discuss Auburn traditions.
Among topics were the
purchase of new band uniforms,
enforcement of Rat Cap rules,
the possibility of a freshman
cheering squad, and a homecoming
game.
Present were Dr. L. N. Duncan,
president of API; P. R. Bidez,
bandmaster; Coach Carl Voyles;
Burke Dupuy, A-Club president;
Clarence Simmons, president of
the junior class; Jeff Beard, business
manager of the athletic department;
Elmer Salter, sports
publicity director; Jimmy Brown,
Plainsman business manager;
Sam Kirkman, freshman class
president, Lowell Ramsey, president
of veterans organization;
Herb Holsembeck, ASME president;
Starr Prolsdorfer, editor-elect
of the Glomerata; Frank
Keown, vice-president of AIO;
and Irene Long, Plainsman editor.
Jimmy Brown outlined a plan
whereby campus orgainizations
could help raise money for new
band uniforms. He was appointed
chairman of a committee to complete
plans for financing the project.
Mr. Bidez was appointed chairman
of a committee to design
new uniforms, using orange and
blue if possible. He suggested
that outstanding Auburn graduates
be asked to speak on Auburn
traditions at pep rallies. The
group agreed that this method of
instilling the Auburn Spirit was
advisable.
Bill Cook pointed out that the
cheerleader squad had been rearranged
under an advisory and
selection board made up of representatives
of the campus. He
and Sam Kirkman decided to
work on a freshman cheering
squad. A freshman class meeting
will be held soon, Kirkman announced.
The matter of exhibition by a
crack drill platoon, which has
been conducted by Scabbard and
Blade in the past, was discussed.
Lowell Ramsey suggested a
motorcade to the Columbus game.
Dr. Duncan endorsed the proposals
of the group and invited
them to meet with him again to
complete plans. . ,
Auburn Women
Are Career-Minded
Wide-awake Auburn coeds have
found that there are various and
sundry professional fields open to
them.
Here are several replys to the
question, "What course are you
taking and what do you plan to
do with it?"
Joyce Allison: "I'm taking secretarial
science. My first choice is
to be a secretary in a reservation
office of an airline. It seems to
be an overcrowded field tho, since
there are so many veterans with
experience going into aeronautical
administration. As my second
choice I want to be a lawyer's
secretary."
Cecile Hinson: Commercial Art
is her major. After studying in
New York she would like to be
in advertising there. Her secret
ambition, however, is to be an
airline hostess.
J. M. Ferguson: "I'm taking lab
Tech and when I finish, if I do,
I want to work with Elizabeth
Arden or any other cosmetic
firm in New York."
Martee McReynolds: She is majoring
in Commercial Art and
would like to study fashion illustration
in New York. After her
training she would like to design
in a Palm Beach Department
store. Will marriage interfere?
"I hope so".
Joyce McNeal: "I'm taking General
Education and for some unknown
reason I would like to
teach physical education in college."
(I bet she makes an A this
quarter).
Nancy Lee Brown: "After get-ing
my masters from Chapel Hill,
I would like to do copy-writing
for an advertising agency in New
York.
Mildred Baggeit: Majoring in
business administration. "I want
to be a personnel director in Atlanta.
Asked if she was interested
in any special business, she
said, "No, any ole thing will do
as long as it will make money.
Eula Price: Majoring in science
and literature. What would she
like to do when you finish? "Ha!
Ha!" was her only reply.
Betty Joe Reeves: She is majoring
in home economics and is hoping.

Hargreaves Speaks
To Pharmacy Students
Prof. G. W. Hargreaves spoke
on "The State Laws of Pharmacy"
at the meeting of the student
branch of the American Pharmaceutical
Association last week.
Ed Nail, president, welcomed
new members and introduced the
speaker.
Police Ask Cooperation
Of Pedestrians, Drivers
Chief Clyde Ellis, of the Auburn
police force, has requested that
all students abide by the local
traffic regulations so as to facilitate
the increased flow of traffic
throughout Auburn.
With the beginning of this
quarter the increased enrollment
has brought with it an increased
traffic problem with a greater
number of cars and students
strolling over the streets.
Chief Ellis has particularly requested
that the students cross
with'the traffic lights and avoid
jaywalking.
Safety Drive
Sometimes in April there will
begin in Auburn a safety drive to
check the number of accidents oc-

Something Talked About Too Much
Students have a right to be tired of
hearing about the Auburn Spirit. A few
people who were here before the war
know the meaning of the term. Others
don't. It holds no significance for many
It's something a few talk about and nobody
does anything about.
The reason? They don't understand and
participate in the Auburn traditions embodying
the Auburn Spirit.
Bill Cook, head cheerleader, an Auburn
man since childhood, has been doing something
besides talking. At a meeting of
representatives from campus organizations
last week, he pointed out a few things
needed to reestablish some of the traditions.
They are a freshman cheering squad,
improved upperclassmen cheering squad,
new band uniforms, enforcement of rat
traditions, and more conscious efforts to be
friendly. There was talk of more Auburn
songs. All things mentioned are possible.
As a small college, Auburn gained fame
for its spirit and friendliness. With proper
organization it can, as a large college,
keep its spirit and friendliness alive and
be greater.
Students will be asked to help. It'll be
great fun, so don't be a straggler. Talking
won't help. Act.
An Auburn Institution, 80 Years
Young
Auburn's first football coach, eighty
years old today, is a great Auburn institution—
a symbol of the ideal Auburn man.
Dr. George Petrie, retired dean of the
graduate school, organized the first football
team back in 1891. Dr. Petrie's team
—it was his because he paid for it—won
over Georgia, 10-0, in its first game. The
same year he received his doctorate and
became head professor of history and
Latin.
Men who studied under Dr. Petrie used
to make a dash for the library when his
classes ended, so inspired were they. Over
20 of his students have gained national
recognition in the field of history.
Because of his love of and sincere interest
in Auburn students, Dean Petrie probably
has several times more friends among
his former students than does any other
Auburn professor. He had always made
friends outside of class too. His most famous
one was Woodrow Wilson, former U. S.
president.
Dr. Petrie watched Auburn grow from
a men's school to coeducational, his sense
of humor finding a place in both situations.
-""
One story is told about a student obviously
copying something from his cuff
during an examination. Dean Petrie
strolled up to the student and uncovered
the cuff. On it was written: "Curiosity
killed the cat."
On one occasion when a girl came to
class late, Dr. Petrie made a now famous
remark. "Gentlemen," he said, "never wait
on a girl. They're just like street cars.
Another one will be along in five minutes."
An amusing characteristic of Dr. Petrie
is the way he always got in the last word.
Dr. Rosa Lee Walston, former dean of
women, once exhibited a lock of baby's
hair as proof that Dr. Petrie did have some
hair once. He bowed and said, "I am gratified
to discover someone who knew me
as a baby."
The Auburn scene would be incomplete
without Dr. Petrie's occasional stroll across
the campus. We join his hundreds of
friends in paying tribute to Dr. Petrie, with
gratitude for his life of service, and in
wishing that his remaining anniversaries
will be as numerous as he wishes them
to be.
Who's Paid to Worry?
It's time for someone to begin worrying.
And whoever it is has plenty of worrying
to do: Alabama, as a state, has a public
debt of over 42 million dollars; Alabama,
as a part of the federal government, has
as its equal share of the national debt over
5 billion dollars.
We can't pay it! If we had to, today,
every man over 21 in the United States
would have to pay 9,000 dollars. (That's
about twice what a full professor at Auburn
makes in one year.)
The ostrich attitude which most of us
prefer to take does not decrease the debt
one cent. The debit will not magically disappear
at the wave of a good fairy's wand.
It is economically unsound to assume
the "oh, well, we just owe it to ourselves"
attitude. The bonds (most of the debt was
contracted with government. bonds as security)
must be paid back or our whole
economic system will be swept away. Interest
on the bonds push the debt higher
every week.
Rationalizing, it is easiest for us to
"leave the solution to the experts" since
we can't accomplish anything, anyway.
Whether or not we are economics majors,
we are thinking college students, the
leaders of tomorrow. And we can accomplish
something by looking at the problem
objectively, by realizing that it is a problem.
We can discuss it with professors who
know economics. We can learn a little of
the principles of sound financial practices
on our own. We can investigate—and help
elect—both state and national officials who
believe in economy, other planks in their
platforms being equal.
We can act like college students should.
And we can assume our share of the worry,
so that we will be able to do our part intelligently.
Where Research and Interpretation
Are Needed
No doubt one of Auburn's greatest contributions
to the state will be its service
to groups which are, on the whole, non-college.
Fifty per cent of Alabama's
adults have been to school 7.29 years.
Only 10 per cent have been to school 12.7
years.
The research interpretation service at
Auburn, headed by Dr. Paul Irvine, is the
only service of its kind known to exist
on a college campus. An independent
agency set up within API, the research
interpretation service seeks to give Alabama's
people a more complete understanding
of research findings, to the end'
that living may be improved.
It is one attempt to combat the state's
educational poverty in an area that has
long been neglected. It recognizes the
"equal education opportunity" ideal as a
myth.
Alabama's white adults have the same
amount of education as the national average
of adults: 8.3 years. Negroes included,
Alabama's adults have had an average of
7.3 years of school.
It is encouraging then, that a research
interpretation service is located at a college
where research is being done, in
a locality where interpretation will pay
dividends—to people of Alabama and the
nation.
Tennis Court Etiquette
To play a game of tennis these days
one usually has to stand in line for an
hour or two. There are many students who
will wait that long for a court to become
vacant.
One man waited for over an hour for
a couple to finish their game. The game
finished, they still didn't give up the court,
but began swatting balls back and forth.
When friends of the couple came up to
relieve them of the court, the reason for
stalling was clear.
The student who had waited, needless
to say, was left out. His sportsmanship
was tried, all right. It has happened many
times before.
The sports field, many people say, is a
good place to learn to cooperate and develop
character. The shortage of tennis
courts leaves plenty of room for cooperation
and sportsmanship, so let's try practicing
them.
If that doesn't work, the college could
step in and rent the courts by the hour so
no group of students could monopolize
them for an entire afternoon.
So We Run Political Ads
Many people may be surprised this
week to see political advertisements in
The Plainsman. A large percentage of
students will vote this year. The paper's
business is to inform its readers and sell
advertising. Students are asked to read
the political advertisements and consider
the information wisely.
Every politician has the same privilege
of advertising.
College students should be able to
weigh the facts about each candidate. It
is up to those who can do so to see that
corruption in state government is eliminated.
A big order, that is. The time to begin
is now.

By the Way

As a relief to the readers, and also to the writer of this
column, Jack Thornton, noble student who works on the
Plainsman, and is editor of the Tiger Rag, and who was directly
responsible for the "brilliant" skit presented last Wednesday
night by the publication of which he is editor, is a guest
writer of this column this week.
BY JACK THORNTON
When asked to write this column I fainted dead away. I
haven't completely recovered yet—as you can easily see by
casting your eyes over the remainder of this column. But I
used to help write Jaywalking and it was finally kicked out
of the paper. The editor didn't like it, the administration didn't
like it, and even the cops say there will be no more jaywalking.
Over our column they used to put a little line in black
print saying that the editor was not responsible for anything
said in Jaywalking and it was not to be construed—whatever
that-is—as the editorial policy. Well, just to get even, I'd like
to say that I'm not to be held responsible for anything in the
Plainsman and as for editorial policy I always thought that
was insurance in case anyone shot the editor.
* * *
But to get on with the subject at hand. GIRLS! which reminds
me, I could use a couple in both hands; they just don't
get around enough.
GIRLS! 1005 of them here at Auburn and only 3282 boys
to take care of them. Do you realize what this means? Right
now each and every boy on the campus is entitled to exactly
.305 girls which roughly means that if you form a partnership
with four other fellows you can have a whole girl, with a
few spare parts left over.
Speaking of whole girls for a moment there are a few here
that seem to have all the necessary parts and they cut quite
a figure—ought to be more careful of that broken glass, girls.
But all of this criticism of the Auburn girls is unfounded;
they don't speak because they haven't met you—now, now,
just kissing her on a blanket party is not a formal introduction.

Saturday quizzes—why do we still have them? No other
college in the state has them—the war is over, let's reconvert.
One of the main reasons for Saturday quizzes is to get in the
required number of hours each quarter. If three days were
added to each quarter we would still have the required number
of hours, and we would have our weekends free to do
as we pleased.
The professors as a group have no desire to torture you on
Saturday; they could do it just as well at another time. With
a little backing these quizzes might be done away with. What
is your opinion?
For those of you of voting age
we would like to suggest that
you read carefully the letters
from our gubernatorial candidates
which appear on another
page of this issue. These letters
are in reply to a circular letter
sent to the candidates concerning
their plans for Auburn and
their opinion on the poll tax and
reapportionment questions.

By Alpha Phi Omega
Question of the week: Do you
think the present list of general
elective courses is adequate to
foster our knowledge of the professions
we are undertaking?
This question was brought
about by the complaints of several
members of the student body
that, in order to get in the required
number of hours, they
were forced to take courses that
had little or no bearing upon
their major courses.
Two of the examples cited
were: An engineering student being
forced to take an unrelated
literature course, and a science
major taking a music course—in
both cases, they were the courses
that could be scheduled during
the students' open hours.
While it is realized that the
enrollment has increased tremendously,
it is felt that, with
proper foresight, this situation
could have been foreseen and
preparations made; if that, for
some reason, were impossible,
then at least a well-balanced
schedule of general elective
courses could have been prepared.
From the opinions expressed by
almost 700 students ,the following
results were obtained.
Present list is inadequate: 74.6%
Present list is adequate 16.5%
No opinion: 8.9%
From the results.of the poll, it
is evident that those who made
the complaints were not just
isolated cases, but were, in
reality, expressive opinions of
the majority of the student body.
The students think:
Quinton Burgess: I think we
should have a wider variety of
electives here at Auburn. I think
we should have more electives in
accord with the courses in which
we are majoring.
Martha Ellis: I do not think the
the present list is adequate.
Whether or not the school can
remedy the situation is another
question, however.
Joe Cook: I think the general
elective courses are adequate,
but that more of the major elec-should
be required pertaining to
the field of work you are planning
to enter upon completion of
your college work.
Dent McCuUohs: No, I don't
think the present list is sufficient.
Art majors have a hard time
getting good electives in other
schools. They have to take courses
such as "Birds." As for the present
list fostering our knowledge
of the professions we are undertaking,
I am afraid it falls short
of this goal. I think the administration
could correct this situation.
Our question for next week will
differ slightly from our previous
ones. It is our thought that it
would be an advantage to add an

With this in mind, our question
for next week will be: Are
you in favor of the continuation

What is your opinion?

You have heard a lot about relief
to the war sufferers of Europe
and how they are in drastic
need of your old cast off clothing.
You, no doubt, contributed some
of the old faithfuls you didn't
wear much any more only to discover
that you were suddenly
practically destitute. Or, in the
case of NROTC trainees and just
returned veterans, you probably
received a nice letter from Mother
mentioning that she had given
the major part of your wardrobe
to a "Bundles For Europeans"
drive, which all boils
'down to the fact that in all probability
the average Auburn man
is in need of substantial boost to
his wardrobe.
NROTC trainees going on inactive
duty in June will no longer
be wearing uniforms, and will be
in dire need of civilian clothes at
once.
The logical course of action is
to begin buying clothing now, but
the question of where to buy
arises. In reality, it would be almost
futile to begin in Auburn.
The small number of clothing establishments
in proportion to the
number of students virtually
eliminates competition, and it appears
that quite possibly the
proprietors of said establishments
have organized to squeeze all the
profit they can out of Auburn
students.
Where are our radicals so vehemently
downed by the Chattahoochee
Valley Times' Floyd Til-lery?
Where are our campaigners
so intensely unfavored by the
Auburn merchants? If radicals
and campaigners we are, let us
change prevailing conditions for
our own betterment.
Boycott the Auburn merchants!

him of it. One day while shaving
he cut himself. He recited his

PLANS CONVENTION
Four students and Mrs. W. B.
Lee were Auburn delegates to
the Church of the Advent in
Birmingham Mar. 30 to form a
Diocesan Commission.
Six colleges were represented
in the body, which is to help in
the establishment of new groups
of Episcopalian college students
and to assist those groups already
formed by visiting them. It is the
first attempt to organize a universal
college group in the history
of the Episcopal Church.
Auburn s t u d e n t s attending
were Martee McReynolds, Beverly
Sloan, Jimmy Woodson, and
John Landis. Two delegates each
were sent from Judson, Huntingdon,
Alabama College and the
university. Birmingham-Southern
sent one.
Officers elected to serve until
June on the temporary Diocesan
Commission are Jimmy
Woodson, Auburn, chairman; Anne
Durr, Huntingdon, vice-chairman;
and Frederica Richardson,
University of Alabama, secretary.
Mrs. W. B. Lee of Auburn was
elected adult advisor from the
state at large.
Plans were made by the Commission
for a college convention
at Double Oak Mountain park
near Birmingham June 8 and 9.
All members of Canterbury
Clubs and non-organized Episcopalian
c o l l e g e s t u d e n ts
throughout the diocess are invited.
Schedule will be announced
later.
By The Way
(Continued from page four)
They won't give you that date
because they already have one
but are sorry — that's not true
that she doesn't have a date but
won't admit that she isn't dated
up weeks ahead. And won't
break down and have a good
time because they are naturally
reserved a n d dignified — well;
what if you did see her at home
in Red Rum, Alabammer, yelling
and whooping and putting on a
floorshow.
But taking them all in all, or
better still, all in arm, the coeds
are what puts enjoyment in Auburn
and takes education out.
» * *
Quiz stealing is one the upswing
at Auburn again in spite
of all the precautions the administration
takes. It seems to
be as much the fault of the instructors
as anyone else, since it
could easily be stopped in a
couple of weeks if they'd make
out a false quiz and leave it
where it could be easily "stolen".
By the time the culprits worked
all night on a hard quiz and came
up the next morning to take a
totally different one they'd be
ready to call it quits.
* * *
The OTS frat really revealed
something when they came out
with their dance the other night.
Arid some of the dresses the
girl's wore did the same thing.
One Alpha Mu had on a red
dress, an Alpha Gam had on a
strapless job, and one of the Chi
O's dresses was checked—boy did
she get a rush!

Lee County Officer
Releases Health Report
Results of the February x-ray
given all Lee County school teachers,
cafeterial workers, bus drivers,
and janitors show that three
of the 295 x-rayed had tuberculosis,
a percentage of 1.4, it was
announced by Dr. A. H. Graham,
county health officer.
The test was carried out in accordance
with a law enacted in
July, 1945, which prohibits employment
of school teachers and
personnel who have tuberculosis
in an infectious stage. Those persons
in the infectious stage have
been released from service and
the remainder will be kept under
strict observation.
S c h o o l personnel will be
x-rayed every three years in compliance
with the law. This is a
constructive piece of legislation
and will increase public health
protection for school children.
Dr. Graham reported that conditions
other than tuberculosis—
heart, cancer, and lung abscess
were found in six persons or 2.1
per cent.
Plainsman Distribution
Methods Changed
You want a Plainsman?
The time to get one is between
9 and 10 Wednesday morning.
The places? Samford, Broun,
Ramsey, New Building, Student
Center, Comer, and Carey. Approximately
2,000 papers will be
placed in these buildings each
Wednesday.
Later Wednesday afternoon papers
will be distributed to Mar-kles,
Wrights, Toomers, Baynes,
and Lipscombs drug stores, the
dormitories, Social Center, Auburn
Hall, Alumni Hall, Graves
Center, Graves Apartments, and
fraternity and larger boarding
houses.
This new method of distribution
was begun last week and is
expected to make the Plainsman
available to more students.
Bobby Clements, circulation
manager, will welcome suggestions.
If you fail to find a copy
of the Plainsman, call him at 869.

Roy Rogers, Experienced Horseman,
Opens Pine Grove Ranch At API
By Billy Stephenson
Roy Rogers, just out of the Air Transport Command,
has opened a horse ranch in Auburn.
No, he's not the well known movie star, but he loves
horses and he's been around them all his life. Roy Rogers,
who was born and reared on a farm near Auburn, began his
Pine Grove Horse Ranch two weeks ago, after 10 days spent
in constructing stables in a wooden area near the golf course.
Rogers was assisted in building
the stables by his father.
Florence, his attractive wife,
whom he met while serving with
the ATC in Maine, aids him in his
new business venture.
Before entering the service
Rogers was enrolled in agricultural
education. As yet he has
not reentered school, but he plans
to enroll in the near future.
Moonlight Riding
Now that the moon shines frequently
Rogers plans to open
his ranch for night rides. Horses
may be rented now any day during
the week, but reservations
must be made for the night rides
by calling 813-M (4).
"I think that moonlight riding
would be a very delightful entertainment,"
says Rogers, "but
only on certain nights when the
moon is bright enough for visibility
could we permit horse riding."
$900 Invested
The Pine Grove Horse Ranch's
owner estimates that he invested
approximately 900 dollars for
six horses which he purchased at
auction sales in Montgomery.
Bridle Path
Rogers' ranch is located very
close to the old ROTC bridle
path. The property on which he
built his stables is rented. Many
dirt roads surrounding the territory
of the ranch also offer excellent
riding grounds.
Riding Lessons
Included in future plans f or
expansion is a riding pen which
would aid Rogers in teaching riding
lessons. *
"I don't know what my rates
would be," says Rogers, "for I
haven't found anybody to take
leasons. But I will start teaching,
and set my prices, when I have
customers."
Another interesting highlight
of the Pine Grove Ranch in the
near future will be buggies for
rent. Of course the horses would
be included as a combination!
Palomino Horses
Rogers has three Palomino
horses, on his family's country
farm, which he plans to bring to
the ranch for visitors to see. The

Palominos, golden colored with a

from a horse which Rogers
bought in Opelika eight years
ago. The horse came from Texas.
Parties Welcomed
"Parties or' groups may rent
horses at any time if reservations
are made," explains Rogers. The
rate for all rides at any time
during the week is one dollar an
hour; on Saturday and Sundays
the price is $1.25.
"There'll Always Be Horses"
Although Rogers plans to follow
agricultural work after he
completes his college course, he
says "there'll always be horses
around the place."

Transformer Division of the West-inghouse
Electric Corporation at
Sharon, Pa. He has been engineering
manager in that division
for the past six years.
Outstanding a m o n g m a ny
transformer improvements for
which Mr. Hodnette is responsible
and for which he has been
granted patents, is the completely
self - protected distribution
transformer which assures protection
against lightning and out
ages, and minimizes service in
terruptions.
Winner of Two Notable Awards
For his part in that development,
Mr. Hodnette was named
a "Modern Pioneer of the American
Frontier of Industry" by the
National Association of Manufacturers.
For "his original think
ing and creative ability in the
advancement of the transformer
art," he won the Order of Merit,
highest honor conferred by West-inghouse

ASME Chapter Sends
Five To National Meet
Three Auburn students and two
faculty members attended the annual
national meeting of the
American Society of Mechanical
Engineers at Chattanooga last
week. About 500 engineers from
all over the nation and 100 students
from southeastern colleges
attended.
Students from Auburn were
Herb Holsembeck, O. A. Moralis,
and Max Mutchnick. Dean J. E.
Hannum of the School of Engineering,
and C. R. Hixon, head
professor of mechanical engineering,
represented the faculty.
Inspections of the Chickamauga
dam, part of the TVA project, and
of the Internal Combustion Engineering
Corporation were made.
A banquet with Dr. D. R. Yar-nall,
national president, as speaker
climaxed the meeting.
The Auburn representatives
will report on the meeting at the
next meeting of ASME.
The Ag Club plans to select an
Ag Queen from the School of
Home Economics, probably in the
fall.
AUBURNITE PLANS
SWIMMING POOL
Plans are being made by
Osmo Smith, an Auburn resident
and prominent citizen, to build
a swimming poll on East Thach
avenue, provided the city zoning
ordinance does not prevent
it's construction.
Although definite plans have
not been completed, the swimming
pool would cost about 15,-
000 dollars, and would include
cement bath houses. It would be
120 feet long and 50 feet wide.
Mr. Smith states that he has
received no discouragement from
the City Council, and he feels
sure that his building plans may
go through as expected. The pool
would not be completed before
next spring.

Tigers Lose Game
In Diamond Debut
By Frank Sego
The outstanding stickwork of
Buddy Cookson and Carl Fletcher
was not enough to stop a heavier
hitting Fort Benning baseball
aggregation that went on to defeat
Tex Warrington's Plainsman
nine, 11-7, in their 1946 debut
on Drake Field Saturday.
Coach Carl Reischling's soldiers,
led by the powerful bats
of former New York Yankee third
baseman Bill Johnson and Outfielder
Gil Gegoski, lost no time
in solving the slants of Tiger
hurler Jimmy Jordan.
Gegoski, enjoying a perfect
day at the plate, rifled a round-tripper
into deep right field with
Johnson on in the'top of the second
frame. The attack on Jordan
continued until the visitors had
piled up a 7-0 lead which forced
him to the showers in the fifth.
The Tigers quickly came to life
in their half of the sixth when
the booming hickory of outfielders
Frank Williams and Carl
Fletcher and shortstop Vic Aiken
produced three runs.
Cookson Homers
Buddy Cookson stepped into
the spotlight in the seventh as
he clouted Auburn's lone four-bagger
of the day with catcher
Grant aboard.
The strong Benning array has
dropped only two contests out of
eight starts this season, one of
these going to Montgomery's Rebels
of the Southeastern League.

athlete and pre-war
catcher of the Brooklyn Dodgers,
was out of the soldier line-up Saturday.

Some of the first basemen who

Whatinel am I doing in here?
Just as I get used to being on the
back page of this blatt, that darned
excuse for a pencil pusher
that writes me gets things all
gummed up. Being a columnist is
a tough life, and sometimes I get
downright mad.
Speaking of being mad, there
are some baseball players here
who are good and krudded. It
just happened that the day coach
Voyles dismissed his red squad,'
some of the baseballers were also
dismissed, without even a fair
try.
Several baseball players came
to this department, and all agreed
on the fact that they had heard
things were run that way but
didn't believe it until now. Maybe
it was buddy week, but if not
it seems that the positions should
go to the ones who deserve them
most, not to some leftovers from
the football team.
They were told to go to the
showers, and when they got back,
they found that their positions
had been filled by these 10 men
from the football field, without

Track, Field Stars
To Meet Maxwell
By Jimmy Coleman
Babe McGehee, towering prewar
Tiger athlete, will represent
Auburn in the high hurdles at
the Stadium Saturday when
Coach Wilbur Hutsell's 1946 track
and field schedule gets underway
against the Maxwell Field Fliers
at 1:10 p. m.
Following the clash with the
service team, Auburn will swing
into tough Southeastern, Conference
competition in dual home
meets with Georgia and Florida.
The Bulldogs of Georgia invade
the Plain on Apr. 20 and the Gators
come on Apr. 27. -
Preparation For S.A.A.U.
Saturday's inaugural test will
prepare the Tigers for the Southeastern
A.A.U. meet here May 11.
Coaches Wilbur Hutsell and Jeff
Beard said that Auburn ranks a
slight favorite over Maxwell because
the Fliers have been weakened
by separations from the service.
Maxwell boasts several individual
stars in Cook in the 100
and 220, Thompson in the 800,
Seward in the shotput and high
jump, Steele in the broad jump,
and Sabin in the high jump. These
servicemen are highly capable of
walking, off with top. honors in
their specialties.
Team Includes Four Leiiermen
Auburn's team, on the other
hand, is practically a rookie
squad, but practice workouts have
indicated that Coaches Hutsell
and Beard are counting heavily
upon Carl Christian and W. T.
White for points in the 100 and
220; Earl Lancaster, Tom Tabor,
and Dick Lasday in the quarter
mile; Fred Carley, Fred Kosak
and Buddy Maddox in the mile;
Kosak, Maddox and Bull Durham
in the two-mile; Carley, Bill Ivey,
Dick Hudson in the half-mile;
McGehee, Sam Maclntire and
Greg Herring in the high hurdles;
Mclntire and Bill Curlee in the
low, hurdles; Bill Cole and A. B.
McLeod 1n the pole vault;..Joe.
Pennington, White and W. W.
Clark in the broad jump; Ted
Foss, Hall Herring and Bill
Strange in the shot put; Hal Herring,
Strange and Foss in the
discus, and John Brnilovich in
the javelin.
Only Carley, McGehee, Durham,

Letters to the Editor
Dear Editor,
Are we crooks or students?
"We'll need some sugar for our
coffee tonight", said the sweet
young thing from the dorms.
"Let's go to the Grille and steal
some," said her roommate.
"We'll need some sugar to mix
our drinks tonight," said the big
"he-man" as he grabbed a tow-sack
and headed for the Grille.
Mr. John has -been losing approximately
ten pounds of sugar
a week, and three sugar containers
have been stolen. At this rate
it won't be long before we are
drinking saccharine in our coffee.
Once after I had finished eating
supper in the Grille I found that
I had forgotten my wallet so I
told Mr. John what had happened
and, although he didn't know me
from a second assistant physchol-ogy
professor from the University
of Alabama, he said, "That's all
right, pay me tomorrow."
The majority of times that I
have eaten in the Grille I have
not been given a check as is the
general practice. We are put on
our honor to pay what we owe,
yet there are some cases of students
eating an entire meal and
paying for a cup of coffee.
Is this the Auburn spirit? Is
this the way we treat people who
trust us? Are we crooks or students?
Holy Smith
Dear Editor,
Since the article came out about
the homecoming game with Clem-son
being played in Montgomery,
there has been quite a lot of controversy
about the site chosen.
What will homecoming in Montgomery
be like?
Students realize that the stadium
will not seat the crowd expected,
but this is the first time
that a homecoming game has not
been played in Auburn since the
stadium was built. It seems to us
there is plenty of time, labor, and
money in which to repair the
stadium if enough effort is put
forth to get the materials.
There is a manufacturer in Birmingham
who makes knock-down
bleachers. Couldn't this be a solution
to the seating problem, at
least for the time being?
With the Auburn spirit at the
present low ebb a homecoming
game off the campus would make
matters much worse. There are
already a large number haven't
found out what the Auburn spirit
is. The old "War Eagle" will be
"We'll be in church Sunday . . . Hubby just bought
a new tailor made suit for himself at OLIN L.
HILL MEN'S FURNISHINGS."

Give Alabama Back
To the PEOPLE!
Alabama voters are tired of being shoved
around by political ring-masters. The people
want their state government back in their own
hands. Alabamians want to sweep out the
office-holding cliques and political machines.
In State affairs, the voters want no more broken
promises, and double dealing. Joe Poole—independent
candidate for governor—is the man
who can and will clean house. JOE POOLE
Candidate for Governor of Alabama
Subject to Action of Democratic
Primary Mar 7, 1946
Experience Makes Poole
THE MAN for THE JOB
You go to a shoemaker to fix your shoes because he knows how. You
should vote for Joe Poole for governor for the same reason—because
his ability and experience eminently fit Joe Poole for the job.
Joe Poole has been a practical dirt farmer and successful business
man for over 30 years.
Joe Poole's 2 3 year* experience as an efficient State legislator
and a State executive of Alabama qualifies him to promote the best interest
of all Alabama citizens. An example was his leadership last fall
in the campaign which protected the people from a diversion of the income
tax.
Joe Poole is honest, fair, progressive, courageous. He is a friend
of the farmer, labor, management, teachers, veterans. Joe Poole s r e c
ord shows that he FIGHTS FOR human rights. Joe Poole is the only
candidate who has the courage and experience necessary to give Alabama's
government back to the people and keep it close to the people.
