Birmingham, here we come. The familiar battle cry of
Auburn will be sounded in the magic city for the initial time
this season when the Tigers meet the high flying staters
of Mississippi.
Coach Allyn McKeen has whipped together a strong team

MtSS AUBtJEN T© BE
ELECTED THURSDAY
War Eagle Cries
It may be late in the day to
be thanking some one for a
favor extended to this campus,
but it is better late than never.
The favor was the one the How­ard
College students did for
the Auburn Baby Tigers when
they played in Birmingham for
the Clinic game several weeks
ago. This school volunteered to
send their cheer leaders to the
game and helped the Auburn
fans at the game cheer their
"baby" team on to victory. And,
from the looks of the picture
that appeared in the paper,
they really did a swell job of
picking the cheering leaders.
We thank the Howard students
and appreciate all that they did
and the trouble they went to in
our behalf. Some day perhaps
we, of Auburn, can return the
favor.
Nominations Must
Be in by Monday
Of Next Week
The second campus-wide elec­tion
to select one of Auburn's
prettiest co-eds will be held next
Thursday when the Executive
Cabinet sponsors the election of
"Miss Auburn." Any girl is eligi­ble
for nomination provided she
is enrolled in school here.
Nominations for the girls must
be turned into Jimmie Butt at
the Pi Kappa Phi house by Mon­day
of next week before 6:00.
There will be four ballot boxes
on the campus through which the
students may vote. One will be at
the student center, another on
Ag Hill, the third on Vet Hill,
and the last one in Ramsay En­gineering
Building. Students are
asked to observe all the election
rules which are printed below
and all students who wish to vote
will have to present their athletic
books at the poll.
Miss Auburn is not altogether
an honorary position on the cam­pus,
as are many of the so-called
beauty offices. She will be the
beauty whom the ODK-Wilbur
Hutsell Cake Race winner will get
to kiss and she will be required
to perform other duties through­out
the year.
Last year Miss Margaret Mc­Cain
was elected "Miss Auburn"
over several other popular co-eds.
The election rules are as fol­lows
and all candidates must ob­serve
them to the fullest extent:
1. Any means of campaigning
by a candidate or her supporters
other than personal approach
renders the candidate ineligible.
No candidate may distribute
free merchandise or have circu­lars
or cards or other advertising
printed and circulated in behalf
of her election.
The election committee will de­cide
cases under these provisions
subject to approval by the Execu­tive
Cabinet.
3. Anyone found guilty of un­fair
practices at the polls shall
have his voting privilege removed
by the Chairman of the Elections
Committee.
4. Unsigned ballots will be
thrown out.
5. There shall be no .voting by
proxy.
Reserve Boards
Will Be Mere
Monday, Nov. 2
A recruiting party with repre­sentatives
from the Army, Navy,
and Marine Corps will be in Au­burn
Monday, November 2, for
the purpose of completing the en­listments
of students in the re­serves
of these branches.
Direct enlistment in the Navy
and Marine Corps Reserves will
be limited to non-ROTC Juniors
and Seniors, while all freshmen
and sophomores must first enlist
in the Army Enlisted Reserve
Corps. Freshmen and sophomores
who so desire may join the Army
Enlisted Reserve with the reser­vation
that they will be allowed
t6 transfer to the Navy or Ma­rine
reserves at the completion of
their sophomore year or if called
to duty prior to that time.
The Army recruiting represen­tatives
will be located in the
armory in the basement of Sam­ford
Hall; the Navy representa­tives
will be in the room next to
the President's Office, Samford
Hall; and the Marine Corps in
the Air Conditioning Room on the
first floor of Ramsay Hall.
All necessary forms for enlist­ment
should be completed before
the arrival of the recruiting
party. The blanks may be ob­tained
from Kirtley Brown,
Armed Forces Representative, in
Room 104 Samford Hall.
ON THE CAMPUS
Scabbard and Blade
Members of Scabbard and
Blade who will attend the game
with Miss. State at Legion Field,
Birmingham, will hold a flag-raising
ceremony on the field at
1:45.
Dean Spidle Speaker
Mrs. Marion Spidle, dean of
women and head of the School of
Home Economics, will be the
principal speaker Tuesday even­ing,
Nov. 3, at a meeting of the
Auburn Householders Association
in the New Classroom Bulding.
Dr. J. V. Brown, director of
student employment and hous­ing,
urges that all members of
the association attend the meet­ing.
Newman Club Meeting
Tuesday evening the Newman
club gave a Halloween party in
the clubroom at 240 E. Magnolia.
Members and their guests were
present for dancing and other ac­tivities.
Ladies of the parish
served pie, cakes and coffee for
refeshments and assisted in the
entertainment.
This is one of the many activi­ties
planned for Catholic students
throughout the year and active
members urge all Catholic stu­dents
to participate. Meetings are
held every Tuesday night at 8
o'clock in the club room.
Horseshoe Entries
All entries for fraternity horse­shoes
must be turned in to the
Intramural Office by Wednesday
of next week. After Wednesday
it will be too late for the teams
to be included on the brackets
to be drawn up. There are to be
six men on each team.
barring the Alabama-Georgia tilt,
will flash two of the best backs
in the south in Auburn's "Gone
with the wind" Gafford and "The
Blond Blizzard" of Mississippi
State.
At this point, we would like to
take time out to praise the work
of the entire team against Vil-lanova,
and especially that of
Sophomore Babe Gendusa, who
stepped in to fill the shoes of the
injured Aubrey Clayton and play­ed
a bang up game. Gendusa was
pratically a demon on defense.
The state team, fresh from a
26-12 win over Florida will pit a
big and powerful eleven against
Auburn, one capable of striking
accurately on ground and air.
Should Monk Gafford have a good
day, State will find the going
plenty tough. Incidentally, Gaf­ford
is the boy about whom
Alabama's coaching staff has re­marked,
"We could beat any team
in the country with a back like
Gafford". Clipper Smith of Vil-lonova
was very pleased with the
fact that Gafford would not face
his teams anymore after this year.
Aubrey Clayton, first string
quarterback who was injured in
the Georgetown battle has been
pronounced ready for action
Saturday. Coaches Meagher and
Hertenberger drilled the Plains­man
hard this week and the
squad is reported to be in good
physical shape. Carl Fletcher, end
from Gadsden, Alabama, who was
injured in the Villonova game
has reponded well to treatment
and will be ready for service
against the Delta State Boys.
We'll bet the fireworks will
really blast in Birmingham Sat­urday
with a private score being
calculated
Gafford.

Copernicus To Be
Honored by Free
Nations Next Year
On May 24, 1943, the world will
celebrate the four hundredth an­niversary
of the death of Nicolas
Copernicus, the great Polish
scientist. Today for the first time
in 575 years the alma mater of
Copernicus, the University of
Krakow, has been closed by the
invader.
The Kosciuszko Foundation,
which since 1925 has endeavored
to promote Polish culture, espe­cially
in the United States, plans
toNfeature the four hundredth an­niversary
of the death of Coper­nicus,
because the modern period
of science popularly dates from
his death, because Poland is as­sociated
with the United States
in the war of survival, and be­cause
the United States contains
several citizens of Polish and
Slavic extraction, who would be
honored in the honor paid their
fellow countryman.
SPEs Defeat Delta
Sigma Phi to Win
By Score 13-12
A superb Sigma Phi Epsilon
team emerged victorious in the
first round of the Interfraternity
play-offs by barely nosing out
the Delta Sigs by the slim mar­gin
of an extra point, 13-12.
Both teams had entered the
play-offs with spotless records as
each had won four, lost none, and
gone unscored on.
The Delta Sigs drew first blood
early in the game as they made
their initial score on a drive
which began about midfield and
carried to the four by means of
passes to&and from Walch and
Califf. The drive was climaxed as
Walch tossed to Sims for the
score. The attempt for the point
was knocked down by Cribb.
The SPEs retaliated for this
score in the second quarter. They
took a Delta Sig punt on their
own thirty and began down field.
Curlee tossed to Scruggs for six­teen
yards and moved the ball to
the 46. Again Jack Curlee was on
the throwing end as Bill Rains
took a pass which was good for
fourteen. Scruggs was on the re­ceiving
end- again as Curlee com­pleted
one for 10 yards to the
Delta Sig 30. Then on a beauti­ful
pass from Curlee to Harris
Bodden in the end zone was good
for 30 and the score. The attempt
for the point was ruled bad.
The SPEs again scored in the
third period and provided the
margin necessary to win the
game. Walch kicked to the 40.
Curlee threw three passes to
Outlaw and Rains and moved the
ball to the 11. Curlee was rushed
fast on the next play and was
forced to run, carrying the ball to
the 3. A pass completed from Cur­lee
to Rains provided the score.
The extra point was good on a
pass from Curlee to Cribb.
The Delta Sigs came close to
tying the game again in the last
period as they moved the ball
to their own 45. Califf took the
pass from center, started running
around his own right end, cut
back over tackle, and ran the en­tire
65 yards throught the SPE
team to bring the Delta Sigs in
easy reach of tying the game.
Walch tossed to Dupree for the
extra point but Dupree was
Pi Kappa Phis Win
From Sigma Chis
In Overtime Period
A strong Pi Kappa Phi football
team establshed itself as one of
the leading contenders for cam­pus
football honors Thursday af­ternoon
as they downed Sigma
Chi 1-0 in an overtime game. The
game was nip and tuck through­out,
with each team having a
touchdown called back. The Pi
Kapp margin of victory came as
they completed all four of their
passes to pick up a total of 40
yards, while the men of Sigma
Chi could gain but 20. Fain was
the passing and kicking star for
Pi Kappa Phi, while Ogletree and
Reddick were his main receivers.
Mastin and Donovan did the hur­ling
for the losers with Marsh,
Burroughs, and Ellis doing the
catching.
The Sigma Chis started off in
the first quarter with a potent
passing attack, but they booged
down about midfield and Dono­van
booted to the Pi Kapp 15.
From that point the Pi Kappa
Phis started a drive which carried
them to the Sig 15 before a pass
was intercepted by Burroughs.
Again the Sigma Chis seemed on
the move, as Mastin connected
with passes to Burroughs, Cottle,
and Donovan successively. Fain's
interception ended the threat and
he punted out to Mastin as the
half ended.
The second half rocked along
with neither team able to tally.
Brown of Sigma Chi stopped one
Pi Kapp drive by tagging Fain
15 yards behind the line of scrim­mage,
' while Mastin stopped an­other
by an interception. The Pi
Kapps were again on the march
as the game ended.
The Pi Kappa Phis were not to
be denied in the extra period as
the dependable Fain found his re­ceivers
for four completions. Mas-tin
completed one to Marsh for
Sigma Chi, but the Pi Kapp mar­gin
was too great to overcome,
and the game ended with a 1-0
victory for Pi Kappa Phi.
tagged on the one yard line and
then crossed the goal so the try
was ruled no good and the Sig
Eps advanced one step and will
play the Pi Kappa Phis in the
second round.

v-m-%* Prawn for Office of War Information
Hitch-Hiking Almost a Pastime Now
The Editor's Desk . . .
Many are the unheralded organizations, societies, groups,
and honoraries on the campus that do good work and yet re-.,
ceive little, if any, commendation or praise for the part which
they add to Auburn.
One such group is the Intramural Board which handles the
various sports between the fraternities and independent groups.
On this page there is an editorial written by a member of this
board and presenting one side of the many arguments which
naturally present themselves during football, softball, and
other games played by the fraternities.
It is not easy to work up schedules for the different teams
to go by, divide and find students to referee the games, teach
the students how to referee, get them out there, work up the
points, and decide in their own estimation who are the best
players on each of the teams on the campus.
Since war has started and our Intramural Board and stu­dents
have worked hard and long to give the undergraduates
more and better opportunities for minor sports, we believe that
they are adding much to the college and campus and deserve
more recognition.- ~ -
* * *
Another group that has done more for Auburn, as for as
publicity is conderned, is a group which a majority of the stu­dents
were in favor of, but few of them thought it would, or
could, work here in Auburn—the Crack Drill Platoon.
Ideas for Auburn's Crack Drill Platoon were born when
Auburn met Clemson in a Homecoming game here a couple of
years back. Clemson brought their outfit down here and really
put on a show that made the fans stand up and cheer.
Scabbard and Blade was the organization that took it upon
itself to take the challenges of the student body to let Auburn
have a Crack Drill Platoon and formed a unit which they
called the Freshman Crack Drill Platoon. Colonel George Au­stin
was first in command with Captain Charles Dubberly
second in command.
After a year's efforts, in which the student body had almost
forgotten about the Platoon, one bright day they made their
appearance and gave a performance that those who witnessed
it will never forget.
Since that time the fame of the Platoon has gone far and
wide. Everywhere they go their fame has preceded them and
their performance is acclaimed as one of the best.
An example of this sentiment was displayed last Friday
night in Montgomery when several announcements were made
that the Platoon wished the public not to applaud until after
the show was over. Instead, they could not hold it back and
roll after roll of hand clapping came down each time they did
some intricate movement or made some snappy maneuver.
They are truly giving Auburn a good reputation, not only
with the students, but with the citizens in every town in Ala­bama
in which one or more residents have been privileged to
see the Crack'Drill Platoon's performance.
* . * *
The football team is a third group of students which spread
Auburn's fame far and wide over the country. It is natural
that a team that plays the hardest, or as hard a schedule as any
other team in the country, be thought of as a miracle team
when they come along and scare the daylights out of the ranked
favorite by all the experts.
But, there is something else that distinguishes our team
from those of most athletic teams which travel over the coun­try
from game to game and town to town. Chesterfield once
said "that manners make the man" and this quotation certainly
applies to our football* teams.
Auburn teams however are made of different stuff. They
never eat without a coat and tie. If they have a sweater they
still don that coat. Their hair is usually combed or at least
reasonably so, and when they wear their coats, their collars
are buttoned and their ties pulled up in neat order.
None of this souvenir business for the Auburn Plainsmen
either. On rare occasions they have been known to leave a hotel
room bare of all soap, towels, and ash trays to take back as
a reminder of the trip. But, instances of this type of conduct
are rare indeed.
This is what type man Auburn has. The roughest and
toughest group of men on the campus and spreading the best
reputation that even the college fathers could spread or expect.
The war is taking away one of the most
absorbing pastimes of thousands of boys
all over the country and putting a new
kind of thumb on the side of America's
highways.
We all remember back "when," only a
year ago, the highways swarmed with al­most
empty autos and even if the drivers
were poor Samaritans, the law of averages
guaranteed you a ride soon. We've ridden
by thumb thousands of miles. A profes­sor
from Georgia's Medical College, a
salesman of auto parts, a truck driver con­veying
Florida's out of season vegetables
to Newark, and a Quaker farmer going to
market are some of the interesting people
composing a cross-section of American
drivers in our memoirs of the highway.
-Though we've enjoyed every minute,
and sometimes hours, spent on a lonely
highway, we'll always claim that hitch­hiking
for us has been a matter of con­venience
rather than choice—convenience
on our bank-account as well as preference
to crowded buses.
There has been a great change in the
kinds and amount of highway hosts, as well
as their less fortunate quests, though not
as much here as in the rationed area. It's
no unusual sight to see men in overalls
carrying lunch boxes, and thumbing to­ward
a nearby Brewster plant or to see an
entire family in the suburbs of a city look­ing
for a ride downtown.
But more important to us is the driver's
attitude towards khaki and blue. Fifty
soldiers may find convertibles to take
them out of Columbus before you, who
forgot your.war hat, finally flag a Model
A, and sometimes the sailors here receive
priorities over the delegation at College
and Magnolia. We are all glad to concede
our "first come" rights to the armed forces
for we realize we too may soon be a gov­ernment
worker and then we'll want the
same priorities.
While we can still travel, we must pre­serve
the honor of the Auburn Thumber's
League. So far this year there have been
two major violations of the courtesies due
our hosts and fellow travelers. Both were
well editorialized in The Auburn Plains­man.
We must remember that the benevo-lence
of our host is because he believes
that our only motive in wanting a ride is
to get somewhere, rather than to enjoy his
cigarettes, radio, and the gadgets in his
jalopy. If any unintentional damage is
done to his car by us, it's our duty to him
as well as to our friends who may want a
ride with the same host later on to rectify
the damage.
In memorium to an American tradition,
let's remember to be gentlemen on the
road. A. S.

Still a Lot Students Can Do With Bonds
Lately, with the war growing increas­ingly
more expensive, our government has
been doing all it can to increase the pur­chase
of War Bonds and Stamps. Of
course, having been exposed to the cam­paign
for about two years, the average
citizen is well aware of the benefits of
this sort of investment and the importance
of placing a regular amount into the pur­chase
of bonds. But still the income from
bonds and stamps has not been equal to
the overwhelmingly heavy cost of the war.
So the financial bosses of the nation have
wracked their brains to find means of in­ducing
the average citizen to buy his share
of these stamps and bonds.
On the campus we are more or less
exempt from the payroll savings plans,
county quotas and the like which tend to
encourage people toward buying their
share of bonds. We have been doing a lit­tle
toward helping the war effort such as
buying dime stamps at dances, and per­haps
picking up an occasional stamp here
and another there, but there are still many
unexploited ways which could bring in
untold amounts of valuable revenue, be­sides
giving the purchaser an investment
in the safest stock on earth. For example,
. the practice of giving war stamp corsages
at dances has been adopted by a few
groups but needs more general acceptance
to do any real good.
Also, the idea of giving stamps as favors
for house guests, for such as fraternity
house parties, and as prizes and favors,
should be cultivated. A way which could
bring in huge amounts of revenue could
be attained in requiring the purchase of
a ten cent stamp with each admission
ticket to a movie, or similar place of
amusement, rather, than the tax now as­sessed.
And there are innumerable other
ways of giving each individual a chance to
do his part.
It is hard indeed to make students con­vert
his ready cash into stamps and bonds,
but if any painless methods of doing this
could be devised, they would benefit both
the purchaser and his national government
much more than the person buying the
stamp would realize at the time. A. L.
Editor's note: The opinions expressed
In this column are those of the writer
and are not to be construed as the edi­torial
policies of this paper.
Just this once, and that'll be all.
Word of honor. It's kinda hard
to get out of the habit.
* * *
And this is only to give you
an opportunity to get in on the
ground floor of a wonderful, rev­olutionary,
new enterprise.
* * *
It's new! It's radically differ­ent!
Every war produces some­thing
new, and this, this time, is
it!
* * *
It's the latest thing from the
battlefields, improved in every
way, and a "must" if you're pack­ing
your bag for a trip to an in­duction
center.
* * *
It's the Martin Bomb Diverter
X2, with many new features, but
the same built-in principles of
quality which has made the XI
model a favorite with men in the
service for over 20 years.
* * *
This small protector, operating
orr-a magnetic repelling principle,
offers positive and absolute pro­tection
against all types of bombs
up to four tons, shellfire, and
small arms fire. It is absolutely
guaranteed on a money-back bas­is,
and satisfaction is practically
assured.
» * *
If you desire these items for
Christmas presents to men over­seas,
write immediately, enclosing
$2.40 in stamps or coin, or a rea­sonable
facsimile thereof, as the
gifts must be mailed by Nov. 1.
* * *
If the Bomb Diverter ever fails
to give complete protection, just
return it personally and you will
not only get your money back,
less ten cents to cover costs of
wrapping and mailing, but also
a free gift of a fur-lined pewter
syrup pitcher for those Sunday
mornings at home.
* * *
And if you need a refund, you
can bet you'll be spending Sun­day
mornings at home.
* * *
We haven't had a dissatisfied
customer in 20 years, or at least
no complaints.
* * *
Any resemblance of dissatis­fied
customers to persons living
is purely coincidental.
* * *
Also just off the presses is our
new battle map for use in follow­ing
the war situation. To facili­tate
corrections for rapidly chang­ing
boundaries, the map is per­fectly
blank and corrections are
made with invisible ink.
* * *
If you don't have any of the
ink on hand, rush down to your
neighborhood Nazi spy tonight
and replenish your supply.
* * *
Also new is our little Handy-
Dandy tire tool, for removing
tires and tubes from wheels. It
works equally well on all makes
of cars, and the principal advan­tage
of this little gadget is its
absolute silence in operation.
* * *
But you must promise not to
use this on tires or tubes belong­ing
to anyone else.
* * *
We also haye almost ready for
the market a new type of syn­thetic
rubber which is not only
synthetic, but also sympathetic.
Because of a temporary shortage
of basic "materials, this product is
not available for public con­sumption
just now.
* * *
Principal ingredient is India
rubber men, who have been ex­ceedingly
unpatriotic to date.

Give Intramural Referees an Even Break
The games, football, basketball, softball,
or any other sport played by fraternities,
independent teams, or other organizations
on the campus are refereed or supervised
by members of the intramural board.
This board is composed of students who
have the qualifications for handling all
sports. They do their best to referee all
games conscientiously and without pre­judice
or favortism.
A few players, and it is to these few that
this article is written—have the idea that
the referee is against them. This idea is
entirely wrong. The members on the in­tramural
have two main objectives in
mind—to provide fair games and to keep
down injuries.
Naturally we are human and are bound
to make mistakes. We may call a man out
when everybody else sees otherwise, or
fail to see a man touched by an opposing
player, but we do our best to prevent this
occuring. Once a decision is made by a
referee he does not change his mind.
So if those who do not like the referees
and those who just like to gripe will bear
these facts in mind things will run a lot
smoother. > R. S.

Offered at API
Course of Landscape
Architecture Changed
To Meet War Needs
A new department of land­scape
architecture which empha­sizes
camouflage, housing and
similar subjects related to the
war effort has been formed in
the School of Architecture and
Allied Arts at the Alabama Poly­technic
Institute.
Although a course in landscape
architecture was founded at API
12 years ago, it has only recently
been expanded into a five-year
course and made a separate de­partment.
This department now
has the only course in landscape
architecture in the South that
fulfills the requirements of the
American Society of Landscape
Architects.
"There is an increasing short­age
of trained landscape archi­tects
at present due to the neect
for them in site planning, cam­ouflage
and similiar war work
and after the war the shortage
will be even greater since trained
men and women will be needed to
plan and direct the rehabilitation
of the war-torn world," declared
Professor Alfred Edwards, who is
in charge of the new department.
"Therefore, a sound training in
peace-time landscape architecture
is also being offered at API," he
said. "And while young men are
engaged in active warfare, it is an
opportune time for young wom­en
to receive training in land­scape
architecture so they can
take an active part in planning
the world after the war is over."
Under the present quarter sys­tem
the five-year course can be
completed in four calendar years
of study. For additional informa­tion
on the new department apply

Alabama veterinarians who
have registered so that their serv­ices
are available to meet either
military or civilian needs were
advised today that their profes­sion
now leads in volunteering
for war service, Dr. I. S. Mc-
Adory, chairman of the Directing
Board State Veterinary Prepared­ness
Committee and acting State
Veterinarian at the Alabama
Polytechnic Institute, reported
this morning. —
According to official word re­ceived
from Washington, more
than 95 per cent of the veterinar­ians
in the United States have
already filed enrollment forms
and questionnaires with the Pro­curement
and Assignment office
of the War Manpower Commis­sion.
"This is nearer to 100 per cent
response than the record made by
any other profession," Dr. Mc-
Adory reported today. "The vet­erinarians
of our own state are
registered almost 100 per cent to
serve when and where the gov­ernment
may need them.
"However, advice from Wash­ington
indicates that all veterina­rians
should stay on the job and
take care of their present work Wood,
until they are actually heeded
elsewhere. They have a two­fold
task in the war: to pro­tect
the livestock on our farms
against the inroads of serious di­sease
outbreaks and to provide
veterinary service and food in­spection
for the army and other
essential services.

Merlo Speaks On
War and Art
"Art is a vital part of that com­bination
of things which have
saved the world in the past and
will continue to preserve the
ideals for which we, as Ameri­cans,
are fighting for today, for
war is destruction and art is crea­tion,"
declared Joseph R. Marino-
Merlo, assistant professor of Ap­plied
Art at the Alabama Poly­technic
Institute in a speech on
"Art in Wartime" given before the
Womans Club in Gadsden Tues­day,
October 27.
"Art is diametrically opposed to
war and its forces. Art, as a free­dom
of expression, .can exist only
in a condition where a right of
expression is granted. Therefore

Major A. M. Rabbins, heading

men for Marine Officers training.
All men under 30 years of age
and having a Bachelor of Science,
Bachelor of Arts or an allied de­gree,
or taking a course of study
that leads to such a degree are
eligible for Marine Officers train­ing.

the artist knows that this war
has to be won, since the freedoms
for which he stands can flourish
only in a democracy," Professor
Marine-Merlo continued.'
"Art is not a thing, it is a state
of mind and is inherent in all
human beings. Pre-historic man
began to decorate the walls of
his cave, his weapons and him­self
before he began to build an­other
shelter. The communicative
urge appears as a natural instinct
of man. He seems compelled to
express his emotions, his thoughts,
his beliefs."
The speaker pointed out that
everything employed in this war
today—cannons, shells, airplanes,
ships—has been designed and
drawn by some type of artist/
"Our government has created a
Bureau of Publications and Gra­phics
under the office of War In­formation
in order to have a con­certed
mobilization of the efforts
of various types of artists at a
crucial time like this. Millions of
posters are created and distribut­ed
over the country because post­ers
are one of the most effective
means of communication to at
least one-third of our people,"
the lecturer said.
In conclusion, Professor Mar-ino-
Merlo said that the one sure
thing in this war and its out­come
is change. No longer can we
wake up yesterday, we must wake
up tomorrow and art is a vital
part of our civilization and of
mankind.

"Who's Who" Honors Leading
College Seniors Each Year
Students Selected on Basis of Character,
Scholarship, Leadership, and Service
"Who's Who Among Students in American Universities
and Colleges" recently selected twenty seniors from Auburn
to receive the high honor of appearing in it's ninth annual
edition.
The idea of creating one national basis of recognition for
students, which would be devoid of politics, initiation fees,
and dues, was conceived more than ten years ago. After two
years of research, correspondence, travel, and interviews with
college officials, personnel man­agers,
and others, to determine
whether there was a need for such
a publication as "Who's Who", the
first book came into print, for the
school year of 1934-35.
The purpose of "Who's Who" is
two-fold. First, to serve as an
outstanding honor in which a de­serving
student, after displaying
merit in college and accomplish­ing
his goals, would be given rec­ognition
without having to pay
some fee; Second, to establish a
reference volume of authoritative
information on the entire body
of America's leading college stu­dents.
Membership in "Who's
Who'' serves the purpose of sum­ming
up all the other honors,
scholastic or social, that he has
attained. Inclusion in the book in­volves
no obligation.
This book is then placed at
the disposal of business men in
the United States and Canada so
that they may have information
concerning prospective employ­ees.
A file is kept on the students
chosen for "Who's Who" and is
referred to when trying to place
these men and women.
As soon as a student expresses
a wish to become affiliated with
any company his complete record
is sent to that company. In ten
years "Who's Who" has succeed-

ed in placing many thousands of
students.
The purpose of this book is to
provide an incentive for students
to get the .best results from their
college experience, to compensate
students for what they have al­ready
achieved, to set up a stand­ard
of measurement for students
comparable to other recognized
scholastic and> service organiza­tions,
and to recommend success­ful
students to the business world.
The students which are select­ed
are chosen on most campuses
by a committee of faculty and
students; in some other instances
a more individual method of se­lection
is used; while in still other
colleges the nominations are made
by one or two high ranking col­lege
officials with one or two as­sistants,
faculty or student body
members.
The committees, regardless of
form, have certain requisites for
membership which each candi­date
must meet before he or she
can be considered for membership
in "Who's Who." Principal among
these requisites are character,
scholarship, leadership in extra­curricular
activities and poten­tiality
for future usefulness to
business and society.
Contrary to opinion, juniors as
well as seniors are eligible for
membership in the national or­ganization.
Membership in "Who's Who",
it is believed by the editors of
the books, will be of special ben­efit
to the college students who
are still in school today. After
the war there will be a period of
readjustment on everyone's part
and employers everywhere are
going to want to know which
men are the best suited for the
jobs they have to offer.
It is the purpose of the book to
enable these employers to aid in
their selection of new men after
the war has terminated. The book
will act as stabilizing agent for
this country which will be in a J
trying period of readjustment and
will offer employers and manu­facturers
the most promising
candidates for employment.
Those students selected from
Auburn and their courses are as
follows:

Jimmy Butt, Agricultural Engi­neering;

Our Duty
By JOE SMALLEY
High above the plains of Auburn,
As in countries over sea,
Men are flying for our country
—Men who fight to keep us free.
We who here remain in college
May not think our part is great,
But we have a greater duty
Than to merely sit and wait.
Our task, though it may not be romantic,
Is a job that must be done;
Not a job for ten or twenty,
But there's work for every one.
All of us enjoy the blessings
Of our land so rich and free.
Ought we then withhold our service,
When our country's need we see?
Auburn men, let's work together; .
Train our minds and bodies too.
For there's work the whole world over
That we Auburn men can do.
Let our hearts soar like the "Eagle"
—Symbol of our battle c r y -
Till the far-flung lands of tyrants
Quake beneath our zeal and die.
Our Salute To
The Navy
Ships sail East, and Ships sail West;
While the self-same breezes blow;
It's the set of the sails
And not the gales,
That determine the way they go.
Like the winds of the sea
Are the ways of fate,
As we journey along through life,
It's the set of the soul,
That determines the goal
And not the calm nor the strife.

With due respect to "Blondy" Black and the Mississippi State
Maroons Auburn will be prepared to face the seventh in its list of
eleven opponents this season when the Plainsmen and Staters clash
Saturday in Birmingham.
Last year it was the blond speedster who engineered two victory
marches that enabled his mates to overcome an early Auburn lead
and win out 14-7. Once again in this senior year, the 195 pound youth
will attempt to stop Messrs. Gafford, Reynolds, and company.
* * * *
The Plainsmen have their sights trained on the Maroons with the
idea that revenge is hard to get—but, nevertheless, it does make one
feel good in the great sport of football to achieve that ultimatum.
Coach Meager is> silent over the matter, hoping all the time for an
Auburn victory. He doesn't say that we hope to win nor that we will
probably lose, but this one thing he does say, "We'll be in there
pitching all the way". And when the "little general" mumbles thusly
in his own mild mannered way, things will pop.
* * * *
Mr. Bob Evans, Associate Professor of Physical Education, who
has scouted Miss. State in their past three engagements, has been on
hand at the practice sessions this week, explaining what he has seen
State use both offensively and defensively. State is another one of
those "BIG" teams that will outweigh the Auburn forwards consider­ably.
Their tackles are two-hundred pounders and the center will
tip 215. It certainly won't be the first time this season that Auburn
has been "outbeefed" either. Speed and superior striking force have
meant the margin of victory for our side.
* * * *
Last week Gafford, Reynolds, and Finney supplied the running
punch against a supposedly superior team. This week its the same
story. Finney, Reynolds, and Gafford will be up against the team
which is rated as the team for us to beat.
* * * *
This week Coach Meagher has given his boys a new fixed assign­ment—"
Strike fustest and with the mostest". He has added a new
and varied offense, destined to either punch State into oblivion or
make an extreme effort in the attempt to offset a heavier line.
He has exprimented with several new backfield combinations as
a matter of precaution rather than dissatisfaction. Auburn will def­initely
be the underdog with the Maroons rated at least one touch­down
superior.
A mighty battle is at hand—Auburn is up against it. The outcome?
Your guess is as good as ours, but we'll stick by our boys.

Members of this years varsity team have gone out for the cul­tural
parts of life, and are not confiaing their talents to the gridiron

Vic Costellos, Everett Harwell, Carl Fletcher, Jojo Eddins, Jack
Ferrell, and Jim Reynolds.

Babe Gendusa was nominated to the Associate Press All-Sopho­more
team this week. Babe played 57 minutes of heads-up ball re­placing
the injured Aubrey Clayton, and he played like a veteran.

J im Reynolds called the plays from his fullback post against

Jack Cornelius deserves more than a vote of thanks for his ex­hibition

SPEs Win Their League as O T S
Takes Final Game from Sigma Pi
SPEs Win League
The SPEs were victorious in
their league this season as they
downed a strong Phi Delta Theta
team by the margin of 13-0. This
victory left the SPEs undefeated
in four games as well as unscored
on.
The game was filled with ac­tion
and, in many instances, al­most
got out of hand as a result
of very rough action. The first
period was scoreless and the SPEs
got their first marker in the early
moments of the second quarter.
The Sig Eps took possession of
the ball near mid-field as the re­sult
of a bad kick. Several passes
from Jack Curlee to Bill Rains
and Harris Bodden placed the
ball on the 20. One pass from
Curlee to Scruggs was good for
the score.
The second six-pointer came
late in the third period as Scruggs
set it up by intercepting one of
Caldwell's passes on the 40. Two
passes to Jerry Bodden and Rains
placed the ball on the 5. Curlee
tossed to Cribb for the marker.
The extra point—Curlee to J.
Bodden—was ruled good on inter­ference.
OTS 19—Sigma Pi 6
The Men of Omega Tau Sigma
defeated the Sigma Pis by the
margin of 19-6 as the league play
in all leagues was concluded.
The first OTS touchdown came
early in the game on a play which
they have successfully used this
season—the old sleeper pass. Bud
Reed tossed the ball to Bush on
a pass which netted 35 yards and
a score. The attempt for the point
was blocked.
Dorsey scored the second touch­down
for OTS as he intercepted
Vakakes' pass on the 30 and car­ried
it over for the six-pointer.
Again Dorsey was the promin­ent
figure in the last touchdown
as he scored on a ten yard pass
from Reed after OTS had worked
the ball into scoring position on
several short passes. The try for
the point was good.
The Sigma Pis scored their lone
touchdown on a pass from Vaka­kes
to Reynolds. The ball was
brought into scoring distance on
a pass from Vakakes to Holt.
Students Remedy
Labor Shortage
Several hundred sons of Utah
State Agriculture College, rein­forced
by students from local
high schools, made two excursions
on successive week-ends to Ogdon
and unloaded more than 600 car­loads
of incoming and outgoing
military supplies bogged down by
a labor shortage at the Army
Quartermaster Depot.
The Office of Defense Trans­portation
provided a special train
which carried 350 volunteers to
the scene one week-end and 480
the following week-end.
