BRING INSTRUMENTS
A ten thousand dollar X-Ray
outfit has been presented to the
college by Dr. Frederick Page
Boswell of Montgomery who is a
prominent X-Ray Specialist and
Radiologist.
Through the great generosity
and public spiritedness of Dr. Bos­well
the college will have an
X-Ray equipment excelled by none
and equalled by few institutions
of learning.
Several thousands dollars worth
.ofc»edii>jn-wa5-recovered by Prcf.
Dunstan for Dr. Boswell several
years ago. Since that time Dr.
Boswell has exhibited keen inter­est
in Auburn.
The X-Ray outfit is completely
equipped to use the Coolidge tubes.
The equipment consists of a solid
mahogany cabinet which contains
a 100,000 volt transformer, self-starting
synchronous motor driven
disc type rectifier, for changing
100,000 volts alternating current
into uni directional current and
also contains a filament transform­er
with control. It is of a marble
bench type with controlled pannel,
with protection for operator, an
auto transformer, full set of instru­ments,
trolley and reels for high
tension load. The front of the out­fit
has large porcelain plates for
terminals.

"Y" DELEGATES WILL
GO TO BLUE RIDGE
Committees for raising funds to
pay twenty students' way to the
Blue Ridge conference, June 16 to
25, were appointed by C. H. Turk,
president of the local Y. M. C. A.,
at a cabinet meeting of the Friend­ship
Council Sunday afternoon.
The Blue Ridge conference, an
annual affair, is for the purpose of
bringing together ^presentatives of
the southern college "Y's", and, dis­cussing
plans for Y. M. C. A. work.
Eight Auburn men went to Blue
xRidge last summer, and each one
repeated a worthwhile trip. As yet
the details of selecting men for this
year's conference have not been
worked out, but an attempt will be
made to send a delegation larger
than the one which represented
Auburn last year, Mr. Turk said.
The cabinet voted that to be
eligible for the trip, a student does
not necessarily have to be a mem­ber
of the Friendship Council. A
call for volunteers from the fresh­man,
sophomore, and junior classes
probably will be issued.
BED BUG COMES
INTO HIS OWN
The lowly bedbug, that an­cient
enemy and pet abomi­nation
of Auburn students,
has at last come into his own.
He no longer spends his time
disturbing peaceful slumber
by making a square meal on
the good red blood of some
unsuspecting and innocent
victim, but he is making his
contribution to science.
The bed bug has attained a
commercial value and the
price is going up.
It has been learned that an
Auburn student is helping to
pay his expenses through col­lege
by selling this hitherto
despised insect to a firm in
Philadelphia for research
work. When this enterprise
was started the price received
was one dollar for forty in­sects,
but the market is ad­vancing
in leaps and bounds,
and now only twenty bring
into the coffers of our fellow
student one bright silver dol­lar.
Our hats are off to you.
"You're a better man than we
are," for you have been able
to turn a curse into a bles­sing,
and to find a sale for a
product that most of the
world would pay to have ex­terminated.
Dr. Hamilton Installs
Phi Delta Gamma
Banquet Follows Initiation
Auburn Chapter of Phi Delta
Gamma, national professional for­ensic
fraternity, was installed on
the campus Friday night by Dr.
William A. Hamilton, dean of
school of law and dean of school
of business and commerce at Wil­liam
and, Mary College, Va.
The Auburn Chapter of Phi
Delta Gamma is the eighth one to
be established in the United States,
and is the only one south of Vir­ginia.
The other chapters are lo­cated
at Southern California, Min­nesota,
Ohio, Iowa, Illinois, George
Washington and William and Mary.
The purpose of the organization
is to stimulate greater interest in
and to direct the activities of'col-legiate
and intercollegiate foren-sics—
debate, oratory, dramatics,
and literary society work.
Installation of the national chap­ter
replaced the local fraternity,
Phi Kappa Theta, which was or­ganized
on the campus one year
ago last February, with a small
membership. The petition of this
chapter was accepted by the na­tional
council several months ago,
but this was the earliest conveni­ent
time for installation.
Promotion of the declamation,
oratorical, and debating contests on
this campus is a part of the work
of Phi Delta Gamma.

Paved Road Planned
"If present plans culminate, a
paved road will be completed from
Auburn to Opelika -by this tiiic
next year," Mayor C. S. Yarbrough
declared Thursday.
The road will be part of the pro­gram
of the Alabama state highway
department, and is part of Lee
County's share in the bond issue.
The present plans call for a con­crete
roadway similar to the one
from Newnan to Atlanta.
"It is impossible to say just when
work on the road wrll start," May­or
Yarbrough said, "but we hope
to have the road in a year, and
with no new setbacks and unfore­seen
difficulties, I believe we shall
have it."
When asked if the coming of
the Pepperell Mills to Opelika had
anything to do with the prospects
of the road, Dr. Yarbrough declar­ed
that it did not.
"The increased population of the
section due to the coming of the
mills will be benefitted by such a
road of course," Dr. Yarbrough
said, "but the plans for the road
were long in the making before
the mill people picked Opelika for
their new site. This road is for
the people of Auburn and Opelika
and for the betterment of both.
Such a road will practically
amount to another railroad en­trance
to Auburn.
"It will be quite an advancement
for the town and the college and
will form no small part of the
campaign for a greater Auburn."
When the sun shines over the
cow shed on the first day of May,
beautiful "Katy" Elliott will step
from the kitchen door gowned in
rustling silk and enter a limousine
that awaits him. .Then he will
spin away to the May Festival and
be crowned queen.
In a very heated campaign at the
Ag. Club last Wednesday night,
"Katy" (K. R.) Elliott, Junior Ag.
Science, Emelle, Ala., suddenly
flashed into the limelight by being
nominated candidate for May
Queen. He was absent when he
was nominated, but the laurels were
borne to him with many congratu­lations
from members of the club.
"Katy" is the first candidate to
be nominated for the May Queen
campaign that will continue
throughout April. All of the farm­ers
are behind "Katy." His cam­paign
manager is J. R. Pritchett.
The unsuccessful candidates were
"Red'-' Aract and W. D. Stewart.
Another prospective candidate is
T. B. "Bangs" Wilder. It is ru­mored
that "Bangs" has the sup­port
of the students' cooperative
mess and mechanical engineers.
However, he has not been official­ly
nominated.
Both men are very fair. Their
forms are perfect. Their disposi­tions
are enviable. The "Sea Sick­ening"
waves in "Bangs' " hair will
go far toward winning him the hon­ors,
i
A little dope has leaked out con­cerning
the nomination of the fair
blonde "Speedy' Duran, as the most
promising representative of the A.
I. E. E.
The co-eds have not placed a
candidate in the field yet.
Last year the most exciting cam­paign
in the history of Auburn end­ed
in the election of "Emma" Gole-raan
as Queen of the May, but the
coming campaign promises to be
more exciting than the one last
year.
Journalism Class
Gets Out Plainsman
In absence of the regular staff,
which is now taking its annual
vacation, The Plainsman this week
is published by the class in journ­alism.
This ciass is made up principal­ly
of juniors and seniors, who
have enough interest in newspa­per
work to elect the course. It is
taught by Hugh G. Grant, publicist
and associate in journalism. The
purpose of the course is to ac­quaint
students with journalistic
work, so that they will be able to
recognize news and organize the
facts into publishable form.
Those in the class this semester
are as follows:
C. A. Pruitt, Sec. Ed; Rowe
Johnston, Ag. Ed.; T. H. Mills, Ag.
Ed.; E. L. Tucker', General; O. C;
Helms, Ag. Ed.; G. D. Salter, Pre-

Senior Engineers to Make
Annual Inspection Trip
Will Travel One Week
200 COLLEGES HAVE
JOURNALISM' COURSES
Schools and courses of journalism are now established in
more than 200 colleges and universities in the United States.
More than 400 instructors are in charge, h large number of
the leading institutions of the country such as Columbia and
the University of Missouri, maintain regular journalism schools,
granting degrees in the profession of journalism.
On report of a committee composed of E. S. Beck, of the Chi­cago
Tribune, and James T. Williams, Jr., of the Boston Tran­script,
resolution was recently adopted by the American Socie­ty
of Newspaper Editors advocating a complete course at a
university school of journalism leading to a degree, or a sum­mer
school of journalism maintained by a recognized institution
of learning and supplementing the regular college course, the
ultimate goal being the development of schools of journalism in­to
graduate schools.
Senior Engineers will leave for
the annual inspection trip Sunday,
March 29. Several of the biggest
industrial plants of the state are
being included in this program.
This annual inspection trip is one
of the most interesting and instruc­tive
features of the senior engi­neering
course. It is looked for­ward
to as a big occasion by the
seniors who are pursuing engi­neering
courses.
A day or more of this time will
be spent in the Birmingham dis­trict.
The party will be entertain­ed
Thursday noon at a luncheon
given by the American Cast Iron
and Pipe Company, of the Magic
City. The Electrical, Civil, Mech­anical
and Chemical Engineering
courses will be represented and the
party will consist of about seven­ty-
five students and four or five
faculty members from the above
named courses. The faculty mem­bers
conducting the tour are
as follows: Prof. C. R. Hixon
of the Mechanical Department,
Prof. J. C. Callan of the Civil
Engineering Department, and Prof.
C. A. Basore of the Chemical De­partment,
and one or two others
from the engineering departments.
Among the plants to be visited
are: The Steam Plant, Telephone
Exchange, and Gas Company of
Montgomery; Mitchell Dam, and va­rious
plants in the Birmingham
District, including the Tennessee
Coal and Iron Company, American
Steel Wire Company, Handley
Hardware Company, and the Amer­ican
Cast Iron and Pipe Company;
Wilson Dam, and Muscle Shoals
Steam Plant, which is rented by
the Alabama Power Company.
The trip will terminate Friday
night and the students will return
Saturday or Sunday, and resume
their general routine of class work
in the Village.
CANDIDATES FOR
MAY QUEEN TO BE
NOMINATED SOON
A f f a i r A t t r a c t s Wide­spread
Interest
BATTERY OF PATHE
MEN EXPECTED
Auburn Woman's Club met Wedr
nesday night and made plans for
a May Queen campaign and a May
Day pageant.
The proposed pageant entitled
"Spring Time" will be composed
of fifty-four persons to be selected
from sororities and high school
students. Mrs. T. J. Jackson will
coach the dancers. It is expected
that she will give many beautiful
performances. Mrs. J. E. Ivey and
Mrs. J. W. Tidmore will be in
charge of the program.
In many respects this program
will be similar to the one given
last year. Two May Pole dances
are being planned—one for the
boys and one for the girls. Many
students will recall the excitement
of the contest last year, which
reached its climax with the crown­ing
of "Emma" Goleman as queen.
Early indications are that this
year's contest will surpass the ex­citement
even of that colorful cam­paign.
Already a series of stump
speeches for prospective candi­dates,
have been delivered, and a
few candidates officially nominat­ed
and their campaign managers
selected.
An elaborate advertising program
is being planned by some of these
managers. As yet all details have
not been worked out, but pictures
of the candidates will be run in
the college paper and the Opelika
Daily News, together with the
strong points and qualifications of
1 he proposed queen, J. C. Pritchett,
"Katy" Elliott's manager, stated
Wednesday night. Lantern slides,
posters, and political circulars will
also be used. All candidates will
be selected in the near future.

RADIO SET ARRIVES
The $20,000 radio set given to
Auburn by the Alabama Power
Company has arrived and prepara­tions
for the installation of the
set will begin soon according to
a statement made by Roy Dimmitt,
athletic director of Auburn.
"The set will be taken apart and
assembled with the W. M. A. B.
set which was given to Auburn by
the Birmingham News sometime
ago," Mr. Dimmitt said.
"There will be a Radio house
built somewhere on the campus
away from the other buildings be­fore
the radio is installed. The
site for the location of this house
has not been determined.
"Dan Jones, superintendent of
the carpenter shop, and J. M. Wil­der
made a- trip through the west
and as far east as Chicago to inves­tigate
the best methods of installa­tion
for effective broadcasting.
The radio will be in operation
by the time school opens in Sep­tember.
This wil be one of the
largest broadcasting stations in the
United States."

THE PLAJNMIAW
THE HONOR. SYSTEM
Several weeks ago the honor com­mittee
appealed to the student body
for help in re-estaJblishing the hon­or
system at Auburn. The senior
class responded by having a new
constitution drawn up. This cons­titution
has been approved by the
presidents otf the various classes, the
president of the student council and
the members of the honor commit­tee,
lit -was also adopted by t'he sen­ior
class. It is noiw beibr* the stu­dent
body for consideration. No one
claims that it is perfect, but it is
subject to change and amendments.
The senior committee deserves cred­it
for the foresight exercised in
j i • m lifaffl"f °© m a n y ojf its clauses, but
if by chance anything has been add­ed
or omitted, which should . not
have been, now is the best time to
correct it.
V atiestion has arisen as to wheth­er
or not there is anything wrong
with the old system. The opinion
that the troulble has been with th3
student body itself is rather prev­alent.
This (belief is only partially
true. The ineCficiency of the sys­tem
as it stands, is due-largely to a
misconception of its purpose rather
than to actual dishonesty among the
students.
THE AVBVRN BAND
The Aulburn band is to be com­mended
for its good work as a stu­dent
organization. It is the only
college band in the south that
[unctions the year round, yet it
never seems to grow tired of serv­ing,
as is evidenced by the fact that
a series of concerts are to be staged
in the near future. These program;!
should prove exceptionally attrac­tive
and induce people from all the
surrounding towns and vilages t >
visit the "loveliest village" on Sun­day
afternoons. These concerts
will be a good advertisement for the
college, and for the band. Then,
too, they will break the monotony
of dull Sunday alfternoons, and fur­nish
inspirational recreation. Wa
doff our hats to the band.
OPELIKA'S DAILY PAPER.
Our neighbor, Opelika, is to be
congratulated on the possession of
such a newspaper as the Opelika
News, one wide awake and enter­prising
enough to get out such a
creditalble edition as the Peppereil
edition of March 13.
Aulburn people did not need this
paper to tell them all the good
things about Opelika and its people.
They know it from personal obser­vation
and experience. But they
realize that people in other parts
of the state and country have not
had the same opportunities to know
these things, so A'uburn rejoicej
With Opelika over the splendid man­ner
in which the Opelika News sets
forth these advantages.
The coming of the Peppereil Mill
to Opelika will .be a decided advan­tage,
not only to the town itself, but
but to .Lee county and the eastern
part of the state.
Opelika has a citizenship with a
vision, and when, at great personal
sacrifice, they made it possible for
the Peppereil mill to come there,
they were paving the way for the
south to come into its own as the
great textile center of the world.
CONDUCT AT SHOWS
We have failed to realize that the
honor system is an organization of
students for the protection of the
students' honor, and the honor of
our Alma Mater, and that every n-dividual
registered in the college, as
a part of this organization, accom­plishes
or falls into disrepute in di­rect
proportion to the degree ,ot
success or failure the system achiev­es.
This state of affairs may bt
the result of a combination of
things, but we believe it is duo
chiefly to lack of publicity and a
knowledge of the system's workings.
In the old constitution, no method
is provided for keeping the students
really awake to its existence. The
committee functions in secret and
the college as a whole is ignorant oi
what may be taking place. The new
constitution corrects these evils and
makes other changes which should
be inducive to a higher standarl
of honor. We can not know that it
will work with one hundred per cent
efficiency, or with even a fair de­gree
of success, but the time has
come when we must break away
from the existing state of affairs,
and try some other plan, .based on
either student supervision or faculty
control. Which it shall be, is our
decision to make.
A corporation may spread itself over the whole world, and em­ploy
a hundred thousand men, but the average person will usually
form his judgment of it through one individual. If this person is
rude or inefficient it will take a lot of kindness to overcome the bad
impression. Every member of an organization, who in any capacity
comes in contact with the public, is a salesman, and the impression
he makes is for good or bad.—Edison Round Table.
Do we always create good impressions for our college?
V
Now that sore arms are a thing of the past, we wonder what
sort of lines the boys will shoot to get out of drill.
With two fliers passing through the village, it seems that at least
one might stop.
There has been much pro and con
recently about the conduct of stu­dents
at picture shows. The picture
show is almost the only place of
amusement in Aulburn, and the stu­dents
go to the show to enjoy them­selves.
Bf they are somewhat noisy
at times, there is probably no great
harm done; yet one should be con­siderate
of others. A few fellows in­sist
upon making suggestive and
even ungentlemanly remarks. This,
together with the_ spitting of tobac­co
juice on the floor and walls, con­stitutes
a breach of conduct prob­lem
that every loyal Auburn man
is interested in solving. Let's leave
off these things. Indecent remarks
never make a person think more of
us or our institution but often maket
him think a great deal less. Spitting-on
the walls surely does not im­prove
the looks of the building. It
is true it may help preserve the wall
to some extent, but an attractive
coat of paint is a fairly good pre­servative
and renders the "ambeer
coat unnecessary.
mm ^ ^ « ^ «
[ FACULTY W WHO
No one on the campus is better
know than Prof. B. L. Shi, regis­trar,
and professor of mathematics.
With his cheery disposition, sun­ny
smile, and a warm handshake
which attracts one to him at once,
he counts his friends without num­ber.
Prof. Shi was born in Forsyth,
Monroe county, Georgia. His fath­er
was a teacher and later a plant­er.
He attended the local high
school, and having heard of Au­burn
through Dr. E. J. Spratling,
decided to enter this college. Ar­riving
in the "Village of the Plains"
September, 1900, he registered for
the course of Civil Engineering
and graduated With higest -distinc­tion
in 1904 with the B. S. De­gree.
He is a member of the Kap­pa
Sigma fraternity and the Phi
Kappa Phi honor society. He
took post graduate work the fol­lowing
year, received his C. E.
degree in 1906, and later attended
Chicago University in a study of
mathematics.
Mr. Shi returned to Auburn as
secretary to the president. The
secretaryship involved the keep­ing
of records, data and general
information, the work being some­what
similar to his present duties
as registrar. In the summer of
1905 he accepted a position with
the Pennsylvania Railway as assis­tant
engineer at Logansport, Ind.
His next position of this kind was
a similar one with the Central of
Georga Railroad, Savannah, Geor­gia.
In 1910 Prof. Shi took charge of
the work of the registrar's of­fice.*
In the summer of 1918
during the World War he work"
ed with the state food admin­istration
in Montgomery. Prof.
Shi holds membership in the exe­cutive
council of the faculty and in
committees on admission of stu­dents,
Alumni appointments, col­lege
publications, scholarships and
summer sessions, and is secretary ^
of the Auburn board of trustees.
He is a steward of the Methodist
church.
As registrar, Prof. Shi comes in­to
daily contact with the faculty
members as well as students. One
•may judge how alive at all times
is his office by the continuous
stream of people.
Besides keeping recofrds, data,
and general information which is
accessible to anyone, the position
of registrar entails much outside
work, such as correspondence in
regard to entrance requirements
and matters of general informa­tion.
One of the newest features
which has been added to this work
is the new character and personal­ity
record. This will enable any­one
to obtain information as to the
character and ability of an Auburn
student at any time.
WITH THE LITERARY SOCIETIES
In one of his sermons Bishop Mouzon spoke of the reverential at­tention
of the Auburn students and said it spoke well for the
school.
Auburn students may be thoughtless, but in things that count we
can always be sure they will do the right thing. >

The Websterians met Tuesday
night and an extra program of
much interest was staged.
After a guitar solo by William?,
the "mock trial" was begun with A.
S. Johnson as judge of the court.
The case was: Miss Seiibold filing
Kearns for breach of promise.
Small acted as state attorney de­fending
Miss .Seibold. William
Frank acted as attorney for Kearns.
The witnesses for Miss Seibold were
Misses Dawson and O'Neal. Wit­nesses
for Kearns were Alstin ani
Tyson. The trial ended with Mr.
George Kernodle, acting as the son
of Miss Seiibold coming in and cry-ing:
"Mamma come home to Papa."
A special program is planned foi
the next meeting.
Wilsonian
The Plainsman might try the Opelika Daily News' plan, and cele­brate
campus baseball games by publishing an eighty page extra.
In the midst of the approaching baseball games, banquets, and
political campaigns, pause occasionally and remember class work has
not been suspended.
It was gratifying to note that the conduct at picture shows last
week was the best in history.
To have an honor system or not to have one; that is the ques­tion.
How are you going to answer it?
Who is to be our Queen of May?
Did you hear Bishop Mouzon? If you did not, you missed, a
spiritual and intellectual treat. Bishop Mouzon has a personality
that radiates goodness and a love for all mankind. We are glad we
knew him and we are sorry to see him go.
Auburn Sends Delegates
To Scabbard and Blade
Convention in Atlanta

2. A charming and petite per­sonality.
3. A.figure as divine as Venus.
4. Rare modesty and untarnished
virtue.
5. Grace and beauty of face.
6. Lovely star-like eyes.

At the regular meeting of the
Wilsonian Literary Society on last
Tuesday night a very interesting
program was rendered. Mr. Milner
gave his final rehearsal for the
oratorical contest before the socie­ty.
He showed great improvement
and his rehearsal was greatly en­joyed.
Miss Norris read a short
selection of scripture. During the
business session it was decided to
enter the inter-society basketball
contest.
The subject for debate was: Re­solved,
That the United States
Should Increase Her Air Forces.
The affirmative side of the ques­tion
was represented by H. T. Win-gate,
Sudie Dowdell, and W. S. Her-ron,
while G. B. Phillips, S. R. Gib­bons
and E. T. Bright represented
the negative side of the question.
The subject was well handled and
many interesting points were
brought out on both sides. After
considerable discussion the judges
rendered a decision in favor of the
affirmative side.
On next Tuesday night the Wil­sonian
will elect officers for the
last half of the term. Every mem­ber
is urged to be present and help
select an able set of offiiers to
carry on the work.
Freshman
The last meeting of the Freshmati
Literary Society was particularly in­teresting
as it embodied the prae-:
tieal application of a childhood
game. The idea was to determine
just what training and how much
the memibers of the society had le-ceived
ana how well they were abl*
to apply that training. The mid-se­mester
quiz, yo"u might call it, took
the form of a continuous story toll
by members in impromptu speeches.
The story was one of fiction as that
seemed to be the most interesting
thing and we followed the hero ani
heroine through the five continents
and the seven seas. Each speaker
dealt with the two characters as
their imaginations saw fit and left
them in as bad a fix as possible so
that the succeeding speaker would
have to think fast and furiously to
get the characters on the road to
freedom again. The speakers were
Mr. Marks, Mr. Snyder, iMr. Green-tree,
,Mr. Merriwether, Mr. Phillips,
Mr. Sellers, Mr. ,Sankey, Mr. Stevens
and Miss GiUbs. The program was
a great success and we may say that
all passed their mld-«emester quiz.
Thank heavens that is one that we
are sure about anyway. There
will 'be a regular meeting next
week and another varied program.
Be there.
What's In a literary Society
Mr. Merriwether: A man is judged
by his manner of expressing
thoughts and ideas. The only place
where a student may practice with­out
fear of ridicule is in a literary
society. This opportunity comes
only in college. In after life it 's
hard to learn the art of public self
expression because^ it is frequently
learned only at the expense of pride.
Every college man or woman is ex­pected,
by the community in which
be or she lives, to be able "To?
think standing up", and can be ex­pected
to be called on frequently
for ideas and opinions. To belong
to a literary society is but insurance
that you will not be embarrassed
when the time comes.

Auburn's summer school will be
inaugurated on June 8, the first
term continuing until July 17, and
the second term beginning July 20
and running through August 28, or
two terms of six weeks each. An­nouncement
to this effect was
made here recently by Dr. Zebulon
Judd, director of the summer
school. Dr. Judd said all so-called
full line regular college courses, as
well as numerous special credit
courses for primary and ele­mentary
teachers, high school
teachers, supervisors and admin­istrators
will be offered. In ad­dition
there will be a fully or­ganized
high school in which stu­dents
may earn two . high school
units by attending the full session
of twelve weeks, it was stated,
while teachers not prepared to do
college work may extend and re­new
certificates- by pursuing high
school studies.
The faculty of the summer school
will be the strongest ever engaged
at Auburn, including in addition
to the regular college faculty, a
large number of professors, educa­tional
experts and outstanding lec­turers
from a number of the leading
colleges and, universities of the
country, it was stated.
"The purpose of the twelve
weeks' session," Dr. Judd said, "is
to keep the college operating all
the year round, preventing an over
load of students during the winter
term and at the same time enab­ling
a large number of ambitious
students with special qualifications
to complete their college work in
three years in lieu of the regular
four year period, by enrolling in
three summer sessions. A good stu­dent
by taking a slight excess of
load allowed may graduate in three
years by attending two complete
summer periods.
"The summer session program of
studies is also formulated with full
recognition of the needs of the
teachers of the state. All grades
and classes ; of teachers may have
their certificates extended by at­tending
six weeks of the Auburn
session. These certificates may be
renewed for the period of the or­iginal
issue by twelve weeks at­tendance.
"The summer session will offer
also a strong program of training
for elementary teachers, a number
of experts in this field, both rural
and city, having been engaged from
within the state, as well as from
universities outside of tht «tate. A
primary school will De cdmiucted
as a model in which teachers may
observe the latest and best methods.
High school graduates who de­sire
to complete their college work
in three years should enter the
summer session prior to their fresh­man
year. High school graduates
who contemplate teaching next
year will be able to receive second
class pre-normal certificates by at­tending
the full twelve weeks ses­sion.
High school graduates who
attended the Auburn summer school
last year and who have taught one
year will be able to raise their
second class certificate to first
class by attending the summer ses­sion
of twelve weeks.
"A special feature-of the summer
school will be a program of phys­ical
education by the regular col­lege
athletic staff. Another feature
will be a course in public school
music. Summer school authorities
will cooperate with the state de­partment
of education in planning
this program."
Dr. Judd said the expenses of the
summer school this year probably
will be lower than any similar in­stitution
in or outside of the state,
total tuition and registration fee
not exceeding $15.00 per term,
board and lodging for the full per­iod
of six weeks "or period of forty
days being $35.00 in Smith Hall,
$36.00 in Alumni Hall, while prices
in private boarding houses will
range from $28.50 to $40.00.
Pesons attending the summer
school may receive special railroad
rates by getting a receipt for their
tickets to Auburn, the discount be­ing
allowed on the return trip, it
was stated.

But if you continue to procrasti­nate,
You'll find yourself too dog gone

And when on May Day all are in a

You'll be a-walkin' around in pants.
Of course you are a modest and

But you can talk in your sleep and
your roomie'll understand,
Or speak confidentially to a sweet

And she your praise will loudly
sing.

win,
The money will go for missions.

"The New Architecture"
ADISTINCTLY new tendency is apparent in architectural
thought and design today. Architects are designing in
masses — the great silhouette, the profile of the building has
become of far greater importance than its detail.
There is a new vigor and mggedneis even in buildings which are conven­tionally
classic in their detail. Masses mount upward, supporting the cower,
accentuating its height. The new architecture is tending toward great struc­tures
rather than multiplicity of detail.
Certainly modern invention—modern engineering skill and organization,
will prove more than equal to the demands of the architecture of the future.

WHY waste time and energy trying to
twist yourself into an engineer when
your natural bent is away from matters
technical? It isn't necessary.
In these days, industry, and particularly
the electrical industry, is so broad as to re­quire
men in all lines of work. Engineers
of course, but there is plenty of opportunity
for men in the purchasing, manufacturing,
accounting, legal and other commercial
departments as well.
There's a good rule to follow. Find out
what work you are naturally fitted for—
then go to it. And isn't it better to be a
first-rate A. B. than a second-rate E. E. ?

One of the best programs of the

when the society met for its regu­lar
semijmonthly gathering. Mr. B
G. Oamptoell gave an excellent dis­cussion
on a iprublem which is of
great importance to all mechanic*.
engineers. The problem as stated
was "Can Lubrication Be Standard­ized".
This was followed by a talk
by Mr. Spencer Johnson on "Pro­moting
Industrial Harmony'V The
last number on the program was
"Edson Sweet, the Man", given by
Mr. T. 3 . Wilder. Mr. Srweet was
the founder of the American Society
of Mechanical Engineers and he liv­ed
to see it grow to more than sev­en
thousand memlbers. He was a
well known engineer, prominent
some eighty years ago. His motto
was: "Do a Thing Better Than It
Has Been Done Before". When ask­ed
for his definition of an engineer
he replied: "An engineer is a man
who will, when making his calcula­tions,
use a factor of safety of six."
The next program .will consist of a
film entitled "The Making of Aslbes-tos".
All mechanicals are cordially
invited. Be there!

FRESHMAN SQUAD SHOWS
WEALTH OF MATERIAL
Several Practice Games
Played
After the first week of limbering;
up Coach Newell's Baby Tiger dia­mond
aggregation is beginning to
take more definite shape. Due i)
the great num'ber of candidates who
are out it has been virtually impos­sible
to determine just who's who,
and, from the looks of things, Coach
Newell will not be able to start the
weeding out process for some time
to come.
Enuring the absence of the varsity
squad the Nawelites transferred
themselves to the regular ball field
and have been having regular prac­tice
tilts. Coach Newell has not
had an opportunity to get a line on
all of the freshies, although he has
split up his bunch in order to give
each individual a chance to display
his wares.
There is a wealth of material
fighting it out for each .position.
There are three leading receivers
who are trying to bark encourage­ment
to the hurlers during the sea-son.
Ebb James, one of the famous
twins, is Lee county's contribution
for a catching berth. Not many ;baje
runners venture very far on the
paths in the face of his -deadly whip.
This lad, an -understudy of Gibson,
seems to be a comer. Treading
closely at his heels are Garris and
Wilson, Who have .been showing up
very well behind the plate.
IFor the honor of holding the inJ-tial
sack, Coach Newell has the sec­ond
oif the James twins, Fo'bb, and
Culpepper, both of whom have Ibeen
Hg-UrrtrsB-ctJ—themselves.—The
former throws from the south side
and has displayed a mean ability at
the plate.
Roaming around the keystone po­sition
during the practice rounds,
are to be found Nelwsome, .Rush and
Fitzpatrick. Newsome, though his
name may sound new, has been .a-vorting
around the bag in such fash­ion
as to indicate that the berth, to
him, is not new after all. Tuxworib
and McLendon are two other likely
looking candidates.
Collins, Gilchrist, Oakley, Ellis
and Cox are fighting it out at the
hot corner, but none of these seem
to have the call. Hitchcock and
Sankey seem to have the inside
track at short. There is a possibil­ity
of a merry duel between tnese
two with Riley and Johnson scam­pering
at their heels. Hitchcock,
who hails from Troy norimal has
shown exceptional form with the
ED ALLEN
Shortstop
Here we have the peppery little
shortstop, Rough Ed Allen. This
rough person, who hails from Selnia
is beginning his third year in a Tig­er
uniform, and is alternate captain
of the team.
Ed is also a footoall star of con­siderable
ability, having rounded
out his third term in the pigskin
game.
During his sojourn at the Plains,
Allen's bat has .been responsible for
many a Tiger score, as the flashy
shortstop enjoys the distinction of
having averaged well over the cov­eted
300 mark. Last season he was
second only to "Seeoh" the clouting
-third sacker.
Besides his work with the willow
Rough Ed is one of the fastest men
to be found on the paths in southern
colleges. His speed, coupled with
a wonderful chunking arm, should
be responsible for many 'a double
killing during the current season.
Hn addition the flashy infielder
possesses an .unlimited supply of gin­ger.
He keeps up a continuous flow
of chatter, which is the life of any
team.
Allen and Griffin have formed a
valuable combine a i c n d t'ha key­stone
sack, and this pair should
work together even better this year.
willow of late. He has been whaling
the pellet to all corners of the lot.
In the sun gardens Coach Newell
has a large •gro'up of worthies to .pick
from, among Whom are Alston,
Tamplin, Aiken, "Little Dick" Mau-rey
and Bognie, a .product of Sprln?-
hill. Others who aspire to rdam
the pastures, are Kimbrough, Gar­rett,
Arnold, Robinson, Muir, Gant
and Harrison.
For the hurling assignment there
are Wood, Barton, Jones, MoLoud,
Guinn, Ages, Potter, Burton, Up-shaw,
Wilson and Boswell.
A schedule has not yet ibeen ar­ranged
but it is probable that the
rats will start hostilities with the
Techsters on April 10.
Snorts From The Bull Pen
The Bozo Kid has proved that ha
can bust a few in the games as well
as in practice.
Some .provision should be made to
give a batter a homer when he de­serves
it. Ed Allen sent a healthy
one to right center, but the Tiger
short stop was roibbed of a circuit
clout when his hit traveled to the
right of the flag by inches.
"Geechie" Stewart, in Friday's
game, showed the fans how to han­dle
fast line drives.
iSSs
Someone asked how Ebb James,
the freshman receiver, manages to
ive the agate such first class pas-
"p^er service to the keystone.
.From all appearances it seems
that next year the varsity will have
some first class performers added to
the squad.

The Tigers met Camp Benning in
the last game of the series and de­feated
them 9 to 7.
Hines started for Auburn and
pitched good ball with the excep­tion
of the sixth inning. He was
relieved by Hughes with none out
in the seventh and, the bases full.
Hughes struck out Mechan and Rat­tan
but lost control for a moment,
walking Johnson. Kgelstrom end­ed
the inning when Stewart made
a neat stop of his grounder and
got him at first. In the ninth
Fountain's walk, Strong's error and
a hit Benning counted two runs
but were not enough to win.
Auburn got two runs in the first
inning on a home run by Allen
down left field foul line and Capt.
Griffin's drive over the center field
dump for the circuit. In the third
Stewart's 2 bagger, Allen's second
homer down third base line, and
Griffin's home run over left field
accounted for three more runs. A
base on balls, an error and doubles
by Strong and Stewart brought in
3 more in the fourth. The last
counter came in the eighth on an
error by Fountain.

in BirmingbauiFriday and Sat­urday,
.••—'""
FIRST GAME
The Villagers fell victims in the
first game of the 1925 season to thq
Fort Benning outfit 9 to 4. A cer­tain
Mr. Smythe, who hangs out .u
the center garden for the soldiers,
was responsible in no small degree.
The Tigers garnered as many hits
as did their opponents, but were un­able
to bunch them, and many of the
potential scorers remained strand­ed
on the sacks.
The Benningites started their half
of the first stanza in an auspicious
manner when four rune were put
over. The amicable Mr. Smythe, be­ing
the first to face Sitz, sent the
agate sailing into the far regions
for three bags, and rode home a
moment later on Buck's safety. A
hit, a pass and an error netted th'res
more.
Sitz left the hill in the fourth in
favor of Hines. The soldiers, hav­ing
gone hitless in the third, came
back in the fourth with three mom
counters, and put the game on ice.
Smythe and BUck led off with a hit.
Another bingle followed and then
Thome's hit and emptied the sacks
after this gentleman had bee.i
caught attempting to reach the
plate.
The Tigers failed to hit safely un­til
the fourth, when Steen sent out
a single, and rode home on Self's
long triple. The jelly one also scor­ed
a hit by Hines.
A duo of rune in the eighth ended
the Villagers' scoring. Stewart
started things with a single. Alleu
rolled out. Smythe muffed Wal­lace's
drive .but caught him at third
a moment later. Griffin got on a
fielder's choice and, with the stage-all
set, Joe Market stepped up and
proceeded to clean up things ahead
of him, When he sent out a long
triple. Joseph did not score, how­ever,
as he was stranded at third
when Steen rolled out.
The ^Blue scored again in tht-eighth
when, after McNutt had whif­fed,
Smythe contributed his third
hit of the game. Buck and Fountain
followed him on the paths *oy meet­ing
the ball in the ribs, (but the lat­ter
was caught a moment later. Rat­tan
then got safe - on a fielder s
choice. With two men on. Griffin
threw Kgelstrom out at first to end
the inning.
SECOND GAME
Although they outhit their oppon­ents
by one lone bingle the Colemen
were defeated' to the tune of 17 to 6
in the second game of the season,
with the soldiers from Benning.
The answer cannot be laid entirely
to errors as the Benningites went
the Tigers three better in the num­ber
of mtscues.
One usually hears of the fatal sev­enth,
but Saturday's tilt was more
of the appearance of a fatal second.
During this disastrous frame,
twelve of the Blues strode to the
plate, and of this numher three sock­ed
the apple for safeties, two receiv­ed
free tickets to first, and a like
•nuim'ber were pinked in the slats. Of
the dozen .men who stepped to hat,
eight .managed eventually to circle
the paths for scores.
The Plainamen came back gamely
with 3 tallies in their half of tht
third, when Market cleaned the
sacks after Wallis hit safely and
Griffin had arrived safely through
an error.
Not to be denied anything the sol­diers
came back in their half and
proceeded to pack more ice around
things. Not content with the
amount of sewing done in the pre-
"cedlng round they added . three
stitches for good measure, swelling
their total to a full dozen.
Wallis and Griffin were presen
with the willow, these two worthies
contributing 5 of the Tigers wallops
and seven runs.
George Smythe spent the three
hours of the game demonstralin *,
that he was quite as adept on :he
diamond as on the basketball court,
and football field. The former all-
American grid star bagged three
wallops for a total of seven bases in
four trips to the .plate.
In the first round Alien, whose
speed on the paths is never to be
sneezed at, attempted to race home
from third after the pellet had been
lined out into the outfield; but Mr.
Smythe, who was calmly grazing in
the center pasture, grabbed the ball
and whipped it home on a line, and
Rough Ed was called out op a close
decision.
WHO'S WHO
ON THE
CINDER PATH
THIRD GAME
The gentlemen from the fort Jour­neyed
down to . the plains Tuesday Self and two tallies resulted.
and won a close and somewhat ex­citing
game from the Griffs, 7 to 6.
Among those who will take part
in the first track event of April 4,
is "Duke" Marquis, famous for hur­dling
in 19.2 4 southern track meets.
This husky young Spartan has ail
the qualifications of a Greek god.
His grace, speed and form approach
perfection. Unquestionably he Is
the duke of the cinder path.
Duke's first connection with ath­letics
was hack in the days when he
wore short hair with no parting
there. He endeavored to gain athlet­ic
laurels by wrestling with the pig
skin on the gridifon, hut sustained
a .broken ankle. Turning from
football to track, he developed con
tinuously throughout his sophomore
year into a real cinder artist. H's
first feat was tying of his opponents
for second place in high jumps at
the Georgia meet. Since then he has
gradually improved until he now is
one of the main cogs in the Hutsell
combination which has not lost a
dual meet in four years.
Hurdling the harriers and pol:'
vaulting are Marquis' specialties,
and great things are expected of this
robust Selma lad during the earning
season.
Cinder Men Pre­pare
to Step Out
Having never tasted defeat In a
dual meet during the past four years
the Auhurn traoksters. now are foc­using
increased attention on prepar­ations
for the coming test of speed,
skill and brawn. Every effort is
being made to round the team into
shape.
"Nurmi" Nelson has chellenged
Barney Oldjfield tor a hundred yard
dash. The good gambler would
wager his .money on Nelson if he
had cast his visionary optics toward
this brunette speed merchant, when
he is going through a hard
practice. "Pea" Greene, the long
tall wonder, is the running mate . f
Nelson. Greene has shown remark-alble
work as a sprintster. With a
few more days of warming up this
flashy comlbination will be on th3
lips of all southern track fans.
These two speedsters will represent
Auburn in the one and two hundred
yard dashes.
•M. V. White and W. O. Baskin are
sailing the discus from one end of
the field to the other and are devel­oping
into fine shape, to cop the dis­cus
laurels.

This was the initial affair on the| soldiers in the second. Rattan's hit

Incidentally Austin twirled his
first full game for the big Tigers in
creditahle style. The Infantrymen
were able to garner but 7 blows off
his delivery and eight men were sent
back to the bench via the strikeout
route.
Those Benningites seem to have
a habit of doing everything early, as
all of their runs were scored during
the first two stanzas. To start the
first inning, Smythe received a
walk. Lancaster then sacrificed out
was safe on Stewart's error. Foun­tain
laid one down to Wallis for a
neat sacrifice. Rattan was safe on
a fielder's choice. 'Hits by Waller
and Griffin followed and the dan-age
was done.
Rough Ed Allen was robbed of a
homer in the first inning, when the
drive to deep center went to thj
right of the flag, which marks the
dividing line. The blow was good
for only two sacks.
The aforementioned swat by Al
was a long drive to center
Booth missed the ball by inches
after making a great run. Austin
•ettled down after the second in­ning
and thereafter allowed his op­ponents
only three hits. One o?
these was a doulble by Smythe.
With two men on bases in tht
fourth, Alien pulled in Kgelstrom's
drive, which had been traveling to­ward
left field. This pretty piece of
>work ended the inning and cut oft
two possible runs.
Not to be outdone by his assoc'-
ate, "Seeoh" Stewart got himself
into the limelight in the seventh.
Kgelstrom was roosting at second
after having singled and stolen 8
bag, when Waller lined out one in
the direction of Bozo Self. Mr.
Stewart "seen his duty and done It
no»t>ly". Reaching up, he speared
the fast flying pellet from out of the
ozone, Juggled, but held It, and
threw to Griffin in time to catch the
unsuspecting Kgelstrom before he
could scamper back.

in Auburn.
Activities began Tuesday after­noon
when the A. T. O.'s lost to tlw
sigima Nu's in a thrilling game.
All of the games have been hard
fought and much interest is being
displayed .by the supporters of all

there is a wealth of good material
here Which should come out and
make the letter men hustle for a

Grishman and "Speck" White will
take care of the discus hurling. The
opposing side will be doomed to de­feat
when this immortal four rends
asunder the ozone with their
mighty heaves.
Reeves and C. Morrow are show­ing
superb ability in the art of long
distance running. Coach Hutseii
has very wisely chosen the above
mentioned warriors to represent Au­burn
in this great event. Martin
still is shining in the 440 yard dash.
Belcher and W. Morrow will handle
the two mile race.
The hurdling berth is being well
taken care of by Messrs. Marqu's
and Baskin, either of which might
well be classed as super-efficient n
his line. These staunch athletes
hsould prove the undoing of many an
opponent during the track season.
"Boibjby" Lock, famous for his
1924 pole vaulting record, will do .
his stuff in that department again
this year, assisted by "Duke" Mar­quis,
hurdler.
The broad Jump is being well
taken care of in the personage of
Baskin and Greene, while the javelin
hurling of the team has been as­signed
to White and White, who are
second only-to Smith and Smith, the
cough drop kings.'
Grisham and Baskin most likely
will take care of the shot put de­partment.
If perseverance and long hours of
training mean anything, the Tiger
followers need not worry about this
year's results.

GETTING OUT A PAPER
Getting out a paper is no joke.

If we publish original matter
they say. we lack variety.

papers, we are too lazy to write.
If we stay on the job we ought
to be out rustling news.
If we are rustling news, we are

If we don't print contributions,
we don't show the proper apprec­iation.
If we do print them, the paper is

by the class in dairy manufactur­ing.
Every student in the Ag. Club
can feel relieved about the drain on
his pocketbook as all the cream is
free. It is thought that all the big
eaters and drug store boys will take
advantage of such an opportunity.
This affair is anticipated by many
students for no child refuses

-Some of the Ag. faculty will be
present and contribute a small
amount of wit and consume large
