Point System Used
On Vet Apartments
The Housing Office announces
a new plan for filling future va­cancies
in the college-operated
student apartments in Graves
Center. A point plan is designed
to insure a fair basis for the fu­ture
assignment of all occupants
to these student appartments.
Points will be given as follows:
1. Priority will be given on the
basis of residence as a veteran
married student at Auburn. One
point will be given for each quar­ter
of such residence starting with
the Spring quarter 1947, and ex­tending
through the Spring quar­ter
1949. (Nine points possible.)
2. Points for children will be
given as follows:
1 child—1 point
2 children—3 points
3 or more children—5 points
There will be two periods of
time in which the above priorities
will be given.
First period—May 25 through
June 4
Second period — J u n e 22
through June 30
Only those students with prior­ity
residence points (students who
have been enrolled at Auburn as
a married veteran student for at
least one quarter) will be taken
during the above periods.
After the priority list is com­pleted,
new students will be al­lowed
to place their names on the
bottom of this list in the order of
their application.
Application blanks may be ob­tained
at the Housing Office,
Room 103, Samford Hall.

After Graduation
The world looks with admiration and
with some awe upon a senior's graduation
from college. Advertisements picture the
graduate with feet firmly planted on the
ground, eyes shining confidently as he
gazes into the future, and chin determined­ly
lifted to meet the challenge of the out­side
world. Truly college graduates are re­markable
people, for they have prepared
themselves in some particular field while
the world patiently waited. But now com­mencement
time looms and the dreaded
question is asked, "What are you going to
do after graduation?"
Ask this question of the average senior
and his shining eyes immediately become
shifty and evasive as he slinks away
mumbling. Peer into this senior's mind
that has been carefully fed quantities of
knowledge, and you will find a jungle of
confusion with the incessant yammering oi
a little voice repeating, "Well, what are
you going to do when you graduate?" He
considers returning to last summer's job
as errand boy for the Jones Company, but
realizes that avenue is closed as not be­fitting
a college graduate. He brightly con­siders
graduate work, but that's too much
of a financial drain and he's tired of school
anyway.
The Ideals Of Que Man
To brighten some life that touches
mine to value friendship above all
things.
To strive to increase my knowledge;
not for the sake of being acknowledged as
wise, but to use it for the purpose of eval­uating
the importance of things tangible
and intangible.
To develop a strength of character
strong enough to surmount all obstacles
which may arise. To be discerning enough
to distinguish the true from the false; the
real from the unreal. To know that each
thought I have, each act I perform, shapes
my personality as a whole and so to banish,
as unworthy, any which will not improve
my fundamental self.
To realize the impermaaenee of worldly
fame, wealth, success and happiness; and to
build my life around things which are last­ing.
To escape the feeling of complacency
The Exchange Post W^**NH! More and More
BEESSa
Over all looms the great requisite for a
college graduate, "You've got to make
good; the world expects it of you." Family
and friends are waiting quietly and proud­ly
with folded hands for sons and daught­ers
to crash out and ride hard and fast
down the road of brilliant success and fin­ancial
victory. But seniors dread the day
when they will feel themselves pushed out
from behind the cloistered walls into the
glare of a fast-moving, competitive, busi­ness
world: a hard-eyed world that asks
for working proof of ability—a world that
is unconcerned with campus honors but ex­pects
more from college graduates.
This then is the thing that makes the
graduating senior cringe—the fact that he
is expected to do such great things. He
himself knows that a vice-president's job
does not await him in June, nor does he
expect to have a best-seller on the stands
in December. He knows that in most cases
he will have to start at the bottom and
work up, maybe more rapidly than the un­trained
person, but it will still be a long
drag. He's not afraid of that. He's afraid
of the voices whispering, "That man had
four years of college, but he doesn't have
any better job than a high school gradu­al—
what a waste of time and money."
Ad Libbini By Ole Timer
One ofthe evils resulting from the lack of unity in a cut
system here is the practice of obtaining excuses from classes
for invalid reasons. Because some professors insist on having
excuses for missing classes, students frequently convince the
infirmary or dean's office that it
and to be ready to face the realization
that any life, even the most well planned
and seemingly perfect, can be destroyed
and so to value each day as a special gift to
God. To welcome any exercise which will
strengthen my weakness, and thus make
me more able to accept disappointments,
and the inevitable sorrows which are pre­sent
throughout life.
To become self-sufficient to the extent
that external influences have little effect
on the solidarity of the life I have created,
but never to doubt that God is the outside
force necessary to everyone. To let nothing
undermine the faith and optimism which
are mine. To keep that courage of spirit
that sustains the disillusioned heart and
gives it the ability to seek further for the
answers to life's perplexities.
And—above all—to take advantage of
every capacity with which 1 am endowed.
This is my philosophy.
—The Fledging, J. J. C.
was impossible for them to be
among those present.
The height of this practice was
demonstrated by three students
last week. When a pop quiz was
announced at the beginning of
class, the unprepared got up and
left. The next day in class two
medical excuses and one from the
dean's office were presented and
accepted by the instructor.
The Newark College of En­gineering
"Technician" ran a poll
among students recently concern­ing
their opinion of Newark's
comparative standing with other
schools attended. The first an­swer
was from Anthony J. Ru-bino.
His statement was:
"Having gone to Alabama Poly­technic
Institute in a war train­ing
program. . J might say with
emphasis that the physics and
math departments there are not
lacking in their instructive abili­ties.
The social life w a s a bit
more accentuated, due to the fact
that many more female students
were present and larger facilities
for recreation were available.
However, in the long run, I don't
believe I'd change to Alabama
Polytech."
No doubt many students now
at Auburn will wonder what kind
of Godforsaken school Newark
must be, with less female students
and smaller facilities for recrea­tion.
Anybody believes that in the
long run, they.'d change to New­ark
College of Engineering?
Urn
The omission of a leadout at
the dance Saturday night was one
of the best ideas of the year. No
part of a dance is as dull and un-entertaining
as that portion
usually devoted to the individual
presentation of members and
dates. It o n l y serves as a rest
period for the other dancers, and
as somewhat of a trial to the lead-out
participants.
What an improvement the week
end formals would undergo if
each 'organization would substi­tute
a no-break for the unneces­sary,
time-consuming leadout.
There are four special parking"
places on t h e campus reserved
for disabled veterans. Every day,'
the campus police are obliged to
put tickets on cars of thoughtless
students who park in these four
reserved areas. The students who
do park there probably do not
realize why the places are re­served
and consider themselves as
having as m u c h right to park
there as any other student.
There are four veterans on the
campus who have artificial limbs.
They have enough obstacles to
make them late for class without
having to h u n t for a parking
place within walking distance of
the campus.
Just a little consideration by
the other student drivers would
make .the job easier for the dis­abled
vets and would keep the
campus police from writing any
tickets.
A Dash of Bitters **.*——
Student Relations Committee
A committee of utmost potential im­portance
to the student body at Auburn is
little known and less frequently called
upon for service. It is the Student Rela­tions
Committee, set up by the constitu­tion
and consisting entirely of students.
Its purpose Is to hear complaints of stu­dents
and to investigate possible improve­ments
to the situation, if needed.
The committee has the power to refer
cases to the Council of Deans, Director of
Student Affairs, president of the college,
Board of Trustees, or governor of the state
of Alabama. Facts concerning cases
brought before the committee by a student
or student groups may be published with
the consent of the complaining party and
Coming To Summer School?
Do you plan to continue your educa­tion
at Auburn during the summer quar­ter?
If so, do you have the right objective
in mind?
The heat is a good persuader to slack up
on school work. Often, a trip to the lake
seems to be a much better way of enduring
the high temperature than attending clas­ses.
The summer quarter shouldn't be
the Student Executive Cabinet in the col­lege
newspaper or in any state publica­tion.
The Student Relations Committee
should be the receiving agent for all legiti­mate
student gripes. In cases presented to
the committee in the past, it has been
shown that this group can get things done.
To correct a faulty situation, a student, if
sincerely interested, should confront the
student committee with his problem, rath­er
than let off steam without constructive
criticism in a bull session, or a letter to
The Plainsman.
The Student Relations Committee has
strong potential power. It is up to the stu­dent
body to make this power an actuality
through intelligent use.
thought of as a vacation time in which
grades come easier. School work should
receive as much, or more, emphasis from
the student as in any other quarter.
The slight difference of summer school
makes it easy to disregard work to some
extent, or to make a conscientious effort
to get even more out of it. The choice is
left up to the student.
I have thought many times
about writing this column. For a
long long time I have been think­ing
about it and wondering how,
when the time came, I would
write it or what I would put into
it. It is beyond my power to put
into it the things I would like
to. I am unable to say in words
what I have felt and feel now.
For a while, way back there it
seems, I had made up my mind
not to write any sort of so called
farewell column. As a rule they
are even worse than the usual
run-of-the-mill column. About
the only ones that I can remember
reading in The Plainsman were
those written by C. W. Horton
and by Jimmy Coleman. The
others left me pretty cold, and I
decided against attempting one.
I'm still convinced that that's the
best way to leave it. Why am I
writing this one, then? Easy. I
changed my mind.
It will be easy to leave Au­burn.
Easy is a physical sense.
I'm afraid, however, that there
will be much more to it than just
packing up a trunk or two and
catching a train. There's a part
of me that will never leave, and
I think that is true of everyone
who. loves Auburn a n d has to
leave her.
The day a freshman first regis­ters
at Auburn he begins to hear
about the spirit. I'll never forget
how that was. I remember that I
took a rather cynical attitude to
it. .For a morith or so I w e nt
around asking my friends if "it"
had hit them yet. I was too smart
for it, I thought, and now I look
back and think how dumb I was.
I was lucky, though. I grew to
love Auburn a long time ago.
A year or so ago I wrote a
column about how good it was
to come back to Auburn. It was.
It was always like coming home,
only more so. That's how it will
always be, I think. Some things
always come to my mind when I
think of Auburn. Walking through
t h e main campus early on a
beautiful spring morning with the

a touch of cool in the air. . .Sam-ford

Commerce students at L.S.U.
have decided that they won't be
out-aone by the other schools of
the college in the respect of not
having a queen similar to the
Engineer's Queen, Ag Queen, etc.
To remedy this situation the stu­dents
in the college of commerce
recently elected a Commerce
Queen.
When I suggested to my room­mate,
a full blooded Auburn En­gineer,
that we commerce stu­dents
at Auburn should follow
suit to L.S.U.'s procedure, he
commented that we could never
do it sucessfully.. "Everybody
knows that commerce students
are no good in figures!" he said.
A two hour debate between an

Students at Georgia Tech are
now attempting to get the admin­istration
to allow them a so call­ed
"Activities Day." Such a day,
which would be designed to give
recognition to men who have
proven their worth in campus
activities, would be a suitable
time to present new members of
the major honor societies, award
athlete's letters, and recognize
other outstanding "participators."
The Ohio Union, at Ohio State,
has found what it considers an
ideal solution for the individual
to make his voice heard in the
running of campus affairs. A sug­gestion
box is located in the front
hall of the Union and is emptied
every week. After a committee,
including the director of student
affairs, has looked over the sug­gestions,
it decides what action,
if any, is to be taken. Each week,
a list of the proposals and actions
are posted on a campus bulletin
board.

Students who are sagging un­der

will be interested in the de­velopment
of a new machine call­ed
the "Reading Rate Controller."
The machine, which was des­cribed
in a recent issue of the
Florida Alligator, has a light
alumninum screen which goes
down line by line, covering up the
reading material at a controlled
rate of speed. It sets a minimum
rate for the reader. As he learns
to read at a more even pace, he
gradually accelerates the move­ment
of the screen with the result
that his rate of reading increases
correspondingly. 9

Informed that the new depen­dents

Cannon Report By Tom Connor
One week from today final
examinations begin! That is a
rather sobering fact; it causes
one to pause a second and take
stock of his situation. Each stu­dent
will probably have to classi­fy
himself in onV of three groups.
He may be one of those rare
souls who has studied every sub­ject
every night in the quarter.
If so, he has nothing to worry
about—and rightly so. Although
all students know that just a lit­tle
regular work will make him
master of any course, there are
only a handful of Auburn stu­dents
who can boast of this ac­complishment.
If you are one of
this select group, you can forget
all about finals until the night
before the quizzes.
On-the other hand, there is an­other
group of students who have
nothing to worry about as far as
final examinations are concerned
because they could not pass re­gardless
of what grades they
made on the finals. This is a
sad state of affairs in which to
find yourself, but there is not
much that can be done about it
at this late date. Since your situ­ation
probably results from too
little study during the quarter,
all we can suggest is that you do
a little more work the next time.
Then there is that category in
which most students find them­selves.
Although their grades are
not too good, they still have a
chance with a decent grade on
the final exams. These are the
students who have done some
work during the quarter. Most of
them started the quarter with the
best intentions, but other things
soon interfered. There were par­ties
and dates and meetings to
attend, and the average student
soon found himself behind.
But there is still time to repent
of some of your past neglect. If
you will spend next week re­viewing
the quarter's work, you
will find that you will be pre­pared
to take your final exams
without staying up until four
o'clock every night during exam
week.
WARNING! All students are
urged to be on their guard against
an old gang which is in full oper­ation
on the Auburn campus—the
B and G (as in B a n d i t s and
Greenback-grabbers) Gang.
One day last winter my friend
Jim accidentally smashed a win­dow
in his room at Magnolia Hall;
he notified the office of the dam­age
on that same afternoon. Cold
drafts and wet rain poured
through the break for about a
month before a represenattive
from the Buildings and Grounds b
Department came around to. make*** |
repairs. The workman replaced
the window pane in 25 minutes,
according to a reliable timepiece.
In a few days Jim received the
invoice from B and G. There, in
figures easily visible to the naked
eye, was the bill: $3.86. Three
dollars and 86 cents for 25 min­utes
of time spent in replacing a
window pane approximately 13
inches wide and 32 inches long!
That isn't so bad in itself; they
only charged $.75 for the pane
of glass. But Jim was charged
for two hours time on the part
of the workman. According to
the statement he had had a
helper; that added more ex­pense
to the bill, so that under
the heading of "labor" there was
the astronomical figure of $2.64.
That means that the workman, if
he worked steadily, could clear
$fi.33 an hour! A little farther
down the face of the bill was
tucked unobtrusively the charges
for two other items: five pounds
of putty and one pound of Span­ish
whiting—all this for a pane
of glass roughly three square feet
in area.
When Jim protested to the B
and G office, they decided that a
mistake had been made. There
had been three window panes re­placed
in Magnolia Hall that day,
but each had a different charge
on its invoice. For example, one
boy was not charged for the putty
but was charged $1.20 for the 13-
by-32 inch glass. All together the
three bills totalled about $12—an
average of $4 for each window.
The Buildings and Grounds De­partment,
to "correct" their mis­take,
knocked off 85 cents of
Jim's bill. But for the 25 minutes
of work done by the workman
they charged Jim $2.26—that's
$5.43 an hour to replace broken
window panes!
Jim would gladly have replac­ed
the broken pane himself; and
he could have done so for a much
lower price. But when he sug­gested
the idea, he was told that
only men of the Buildings and
Grounds Department were allow­ed
to make such repairs. It seems
that B and G has formed a con­tract
with the school to the ef­fect
that just a b o u t all work
concerning damage to school pro­perty
must be reported to, and
taken care of by, that office.
This is a fine idea. B and G
employees need protection against
the wiles of rival organizations
who would s e e k to undermine
their very foundations — their
most strictly adhered to princi­ples—
by lowering prices for work
done on the Auburn campus. De­flations
may come and deflations
may go, but the Buildings and
Grounds Department will stand
forever!
Sure, students, shell out. After
all, this is college. You will pro­bably
look back in years to come
and regard this as the happiest
time of your life. Enjoy yourself.
Be gay. Giggle like an idiot while
you dig down deeper.

Letters to the Editor
Dear Editor:
I want to express my apprecia­tion
to Norwood Jones, Dr. T. P.
Chalker, Wesley Foundation, and
my other friends for the honor
bestowed upon me last Sunday.
I also wish to thank the fra­ternities
and sororities, Coaches
Williamson and Senn, and Cap­tains
Inman and Tucker for help­ing
me win this honor.
Sincerely Yours,

Dear Editor:
I would like to point out to
the author of the article "Ad
Libbing," bylined Ole Timer, that
people do not have baby-sitting
because they are ashamed of their
children in enclosed places. They
h a v e baby-sitters to stay with
their children when they go to
enclosed places so that they will
not be exposed to the so-called
children's disease. This danger is
not as bad in the open air and
therefore the thousand or so par­ents
in the undergraduate body
like to take advantage of this con­dition
and let their children see
some of the things that are on the
campus.
In the same article you spoke
of the attendance being poor, and
in the next sentence you spoke
of there being a lot of mothers in
the audience. Don't they count as
people? I know there are some
ill-trained children but this is the
fault of the parents, not the chil­dren,
and so if you want to say
something of benefit, write a book
on how to rear children. How­ever,
may I make one suggestion?
Wait until you h a v e had some
children of your own first.
Respectfully,
. Harvell P. Williams
Big Jim Folsom has always

The following editorial is

"We were asked by a group
the other day how we stood on

New Program In Inferior Design Class
Praised By Architects Over Country
Ry Gene Moore
Seven seniors in Prof. William B- McGehee's interior de­sign
classes, with the cooperation of the Frederick, Williams
and McGinty Company, have given Auburn another "first."
These students have begun a program never before at­tempted
in any other American college—the combining of
designs on paper with practical
work in dealing with the public
and in constructing actual setups
of their designs.
As the first part of their work
for the quarter the students plan­ned
on paper the layout for a
furniture store. Then as their
second project they constructed
the sets in the Frederick, • Williams
and McGinty Company, using in
their arrangements furniture al­ready
in stock at that store.
"The whole purpose of the new
system," said Mr. McGehee, "is
to provide a supplement to the
theory training so that the stu­dents
may get a more well-round­ed
practice. This program gives
students a practical experience
while they are in school and
gives them a better education."
He pointed out that interior de­sign
as a profession has beep lag­ging
in the South. This program
of practical work for the students
will put interior design on a more
professional basis.
If the project is a success at
Auburrf, it may be developed in
colleges all over the United States.
Among those who have praised
the practical value of the program
are Dean Pickens of the Tulane
School of Architecture and Sam
Cooper, New York City, noted

History Of Educator
The history of an Alabama

Coach Wilbur Hutsell's Tigers Take Many Honors In SEC Meet
Overton, Pennington, Flournoy Star
As Tigers Place Third In SEC Meet
By Bob Ingrain
The Auburn track team of Coaches Wilbur Hutsell and
Jeff Beard placed a close third in the annual SEC track meet
held in Birmingham last week end. Georgia Tech won the
meet with 39 1-5 points, L.S.U. second With 35%, and Auburn
next with 33 1-5 points.
The numerous record-breaking
performances anticipated failed
to materialize, as a still headwind
slowed down all the track events.
Leading Auburn to its third
place position was the unbeatable
Whitey Overton. Whitey took
both the mile and two-mile runs,
then ran the third leg of the mile
relay team.
Captain Joe Pennington suc­cessfully
defended his conference
title in the 120-yard high hurdles,
coming from behind on the last
two hurdles to defeat Dallas of
Kentucky and Bradberry of
Georgia. Pennington scored a sur­prise
by placing a close second
to Buddy Fowlkes of Tech in the
220-yard low hurdles.
Dickie Flournoy r a n a great
race in the 880 to cop that event.
Turning on a tremendous kick
in the final 150 yards, Dickie left
the field, including the 1948 SEC
champion Bob Renshaw of Tech.
While Flournoy was scoring an
upset for Auburn in the 880, John
Brnilovich was the victim of an
upset in the javelin. Leading the
field with a throw of 197 feet, %
inch, "Tito" was beaten by Flo­rida's
all-round athlete, Bill At­kinson,
who tossed the spear over
202 feet oh his final throw.
Other Tigers who broke into
the scoring, column were Don
Wodrich, Jimmy Mitchell, Bill
Payne, Bill Davis and Jimmy
Beasley.
Saturday night in Atlanta the
first inter-conference track meet
will be held between the South­eastern
and Southern conferences.
The first three finishers in each
event in the conference meets
held this past week-end will rep­resent
the respective conferences.
Competing for the Southeastern
Conference under Auburn colors
will be Whitey Overton in the
mile and two-mile runs, Joe Pen­nington
in the high and low hur-r
dies, Dickie Flournoy in the 880-
yard run, and John Brnilovich in
the javelin.

The tattered and torn Eastern Division Championship pen­nant,
which so proudly we hailed over Auburn's Drake Field
during the past season, has been transplanted to Stoll Field,
home of the University of Kentucky Wildcats. The Kentuc-kians
were assured of the title last week when Georgia Tech
knocked the Georgia Bulldogs out of the running with an 8-7
setback. In winning its first title, Kentucky restricted its con­ference
play to games with Tennessee, Vanderbilt, Georgia
Tech, and a single game with Georgia. They were very wise
in playing the Bulldogs only once, inasmuch as the Georgians
battered them in that lone encounter, 15-0.
* * *
While We are speaking of that Eastern Division pennant,
the man who was most responsible for Auburn winning that
title last year is back in Alabama, but this time in the uni­form
of a Birmingham Baron. Willard Nixon, Auburn's great
pitcher of 1947-48, and a member of the Boston Red Sox or­ganization,
was sent to Birmingham last week from Louis­ville.
"Nick" joined the profesional ranks at the end of the
college season last year and pitched with the Scranton team
of the Eastern League, posting a 9-4 record. Needless to say,
Auburn fans will be following his progress closely with' the
Barons.

In the game with the Crimson

the slants of big, red-headed Al­lan
Worthington too much to cope
with. Worthington set the Tiger

hits.
Jack Maxwell started for Au­burn

sixth frame after giving up 10
runs. Hubert Finlayson toiled the
remaining innings for Auburn,
allowing only two runs.
The Saturday fray developed
into a pitchers duel for six inn­ings
between Alabama's Al Lary
and Auburn's George Hill. The
Tide finally broke into the scor­ing
column in t h e seventh on
three hits and a long fly for two
