Homecoming Begins;
Draughon Greets Guests
By BETTY THOMAS
Plainsman News Writer
On Saturday, November 10, the "loveliest village of the
plains" will celebrate its 1962 Homecoming. Plans are being
drafted that should make this Homecoming successful.
All Homecoming activities, with the exception of the
Homecoming Dance, are being sponsored by Omicron Delta
Kappa. ODK committee heads
'Loveliest Of The Plains'
include George McKee, overall
committee head; Bill Ward,
displays committee; Buck Felt-man,
judge selection for dis­plays
committee; Ken McLeod,
half-time activities committee;
and Bucky Allen, trophy com­mittee.
The various Homecoming dis­plays
will be judged and two tro­phies
awarded for the best dis­plays—
one for each division. Di­vision
one consists of groups with
75 members or more and division
two consists of groups having less
than 75 members.
Half-time activities include the
presentation of Miss Homecom­ing
and her court and the an­nouncement
of the most valuable
player. The 1962 Miss Homecom­ing
will be selected by the student
body on Nov. 8. The five finalists
are Haden Harris, Alpha Gamma
Delta; Ginger Poitevint, Alpha
Omicron Pi; Tina Price, Phi Mu;
Carolyn Rollins, Kappa Alpha
Theta; and Peggy Wooten, Phi Mu.
The announcement of the Miss
Homecoming winner will be made
at the football game and her court
presented at this time. The most
valuable player, voted on by the
sport's writers at the game, will
be announced as part of the half-time
activities. He will be awarded
a trophy at the dance on Saturday
.night.
I Concluding the Homecoming
festivities will be the
Homecoming Dance Saturday
night from 8 until 12 midnight in
the Auburn Union Ballroom. Mu­sic
will be provided by the Au­burn
Knights orchestra. • This
dance is sponsored each year by
the Student Government Associa­tion
Social Life Committee. The
admission is free and everyone,
students and alumnae, alike, are
cordially invited to attend..
Last week Dr. Ralph Draughon,
President of Auburn University,
called upon all students to extend
a warm and courteous welcome to
all visitors to Auburn during the
homecoming weekend.
President Draughon said, "I be­lieve
that we should be as hospi­table
to our visitors as possible
and let them all know that we are
glad to have them."
The president referred not on­ly
to Auburn alumni but to the
visitors from Mississippi State as
well.

Union Features Homecoming Activities
The deadline f o r entering
events on the Calendar of Events
published by the Auburn Union
is November 15, 1962. Any events
to be included in this calendar
must be submitted to Bob Den-son,
Room 303 of the Union
Building, or to Mary Margaret
Swindle, main desk of the Au­burn
Union.
Several dances are also on the
schedule for the Auburn Union.
On Friday, November 9, the So­cial
Committee will present the
"Casuals" in a pre-homecoming
dance from 8:00 to 11:00 immed­iately
following the Mississippi
State pep rally.
November 10 is the date set for
the A11 - Campus Homecoming
Dance.
ties Building. Tickets are avail­able
from members of Omicron
Delta Kappa and Squires and at
t h e Glomerata office (Union
Building, room 314) and Herbert
Music Store.
Peter, Paul and Mary are es­pecially
popular at Auburn and
other college campuses through­out
the nation, and sales of their
curent record album reflects this
popularity. They have had sev­eral
television appearances and
numerous successful night club
engagements at such spots as the
Hungry i, the Gate of Horn and
the Blue Angel.
The group was formed, like
many folk music groups, at
Greenwich Village. According to
their manager, Al Grossman, they
try to sing folk music that is both
popular and academically sound,
and they have received high crit­ical
as well as popular acclaim.
All girls have been granted
12:00 permission the night of the
Beauty Ball. "Because of the
great popularity of Peter, Paul
and Mary and Dean Cater's co­operation
in giving girls late per­mission,
we are expecting a re­cord
turnout this year," noted
Bubba Long, chairman of the Ball.
"I think it is also fortunate that
we were able to arrange to have
the Ball on the Tuesday immed­iately
before the Thanksgiving
Holidays, because t h a t date
should enable a maximum num­ber
of students to attend."
The Auburn Knights orchestra
will also be on hand to provide
music for the Ball.
In the past, eight girls have
been selected as Glomerata Beau­ties,
but this year a point scale
system will be used and the num­ber
may vary somewhat, accord­ing
to ODK president Judd Lyon.
The Beauties will be selected by
a panel of judges from 20 semi-finalists
who were picked last
week.
The semi-finalists, and their
sporsoring organizations, are:
Helen Williams, Kappa Delta;
Emalyn Leathers, Kappa Sigma;
Martha Yancey, Sigma Phi Epsi-lon;
Cynthia F i n c h , Wittel

PETER, PAUL AND MARY, nationally famous singing trio,
have been announced as entertainers for the annual ODK-Glom­erata

Law On Organizations Starts Councils;

A HOMECOMING WELCOME WHIPPING UP A "STATELY" MEAL
This weekend will mark the return to
tihe Plain of a conglomeration of the finest
people anywhere—the alumni of Auburn
University.
This time each fall it becomes our privi­lege
to associate with you folks who loved
our "War Eagle" battle cry before we ever
had the chance. It's quite a pleasure to en­tertain
those who contributed such an in­surmountable
share toward molding Au­burn
into the great institution we have here
today. To you we are grateful. We hope
that throughout the weekend we can pro­vide
a glimpse of our worthiness in fol­lowing
your striking examples.
. We must want to especially welcome the
classes of 1912 and 1937. This is your re­union
year—a time to meet old friends and
talk of the "good old days."
For your interest, our campus fraterni­ties,
sororities, and various independent or­ganizations
have worked untiringly dur­ing
the past week to create the usual fes­tive
decorations of Homecoming. We think
this year's displays are among the best
ever.
The top-notch play of the Tigers thusfar
this season has given our student body a
great incentive and has reved up the Au­burn
Spirit to an all-time high.
dar, this is the year of the Tiger ("Tora" as
it is known to the native people). Our own
Tigers, we think, are complying to this rath­er
well. It is said that Tigers are often
painted on screens before the doors of
magistrates, "to produce in all who ap­proach
a feeling of awe and terror." Coach
Jordan's changes surely fit in here. Non-believers

fans, coaches, and players for reasurance
here.

MISUSE OF STUDENT ID CARDS
The student ID card is a valuable posses­sion
of every Auburn student. In addition
to providing a trusted method of positive
identification, it is his free ticket to many
campus functions and the insignia of his
right of price reductions at others. Unfor­tunately,
it also seems to serve as a com­mon
temptation for misuse.
Students who consider themselves com­pletely
honest and trustworthy apparently
think very little of abusing the responsibi­lities
which go with the possession of the
Auburn ID card. In the cold light of logic
this attitude can hardly be accepted.
Theft, whether of grand larceny scale or
of the more discreet petty thievery seen in
cases of ID misuse, has the same savor up­on
sober reflections. Why then, should the
practice be so widespread, undertaken so
lightly, and even condoned? We think the
main reason is attributable to the fact that
very little serious thought has been ex­pended
on the subject.

Slippery Rock
Alumnus
With this issue of the Plains­man,
the newly-elected school
officers for 1962-'63 become pub­lic
knowledge. The days of cam­paigning
and "talking it up" have
passed! It's time now for work!
Eeach fall it has been the same
—nominate, campaign, elect. But
then what? For many years the
positions of President and Vice
President of our respective schools
have been empty shells of jobs.
They have been titles without
responsibility, offices in which
initiative could be injected but
with no one to really care wheth­er
it was or not. In all too many
cases, fall elections were a time
for a little sport of "political
ability" and a contest of popu­larity.
The question of "Is it
worth it?" was an inevitable one.
One thing to be always con­sidered
is: who benefits from any
particular action? In the case of
school elections, one was often
* left groping hopelessly for an an­swer.
The constituents of any
elected representative should r e ­ceive
some good from their efforts,
or there is no need for an elec­tion.
Things were good enough as
they were, and the democratic
process is just an exercise per­formed
for the superfluous rea­son
of performing it.
In the eyes of the student body,
and more exactly the student
Senate, there was a real need for
a program of beneficial action
and specific responsibility for
school officers. Thus the Student
Body Law on Organizations was
passed by the Senate and subse­quently
approved by the Presi­dent
of the Study Body and the
President of Auburn University.
Very simply, this law places the
responsibility of maintaining in
each school an effective council
to coordinate the activities of the
organizations in that school, to
aid these clubs in all ways pos­sible
and to keep them strong,
and, by so doing, to promote the
general welfare of the students
in the particular college.
The organizational set-up of
this law is such that all points
of the program will be able to be
coordinated and surveyed. There
is in the individual school then a
separate entity in the School
Council, a representative body
concerned with the specific mat­ters
in that school. As in all other
cases, the Student Body acts as
a kind of overseer and coordin­ator
whose job it is to keep things
functioning smoothly and prop­erly.
Such councils are not a new
creation; they have and do exist
in schools at Auburn. But there
was no uniformity, no coordina­tion,
nothing to tie all the little
bits together. There remained
still, even in some of the schools
which had councils, the "be-elected,
do-nothing" positions of
President and Vice President.
This new Student Body Law on
Organizations could be invaluable
in helping to remedy this situa­tion.

A Little Food for Thought: I
was pleasantly surprised to hear
someone the other day speak
about his respective "college" at
Auburn. It is just a little change
in terminology from our well-worn
"school" here but what a
welcome change! Amazing trans­formations
can be brought about
in the whole attitude and outlook
of persons by such a seemingly
minute change in a key word.
Auburn, in becoming a university,
is composed of nine distinct col­leges.
I, for one,, would like to
see this fact brought to a tang­ible
forefront; it would be a small
change, I think, which would pro­duce
manifold fruits.

With the recent completion of
state elections in this state and
the expected results tabulated,
some musings of the pre-election
campaigns are in order. This elec­tion
campaign must at least be
described as hilarious.
Issues were totally lacking on
both sides of the fence. On one
occasion, both parties published
voting lists of candidates and
listed eight premises for which
they firmly stood. The first of
these (for both parties) was
"Government Under God." Now
who in these continental United
States does not want a govern­ment
under God?
Another "unique" issue on
both sides was the advocation of
constitutional government. Can
our government possibly exist as
it was established without con­stitutional
government? Perhaps
this could have been an interest­ing
issue if the candidates had
desired to elaborate on the sub­ject.
The only interesting aspect of
the befuddled campaign was the
signs of emergence of the Repub­lican
Party in Alabama. Even this
significant event has some amus­ing
aspects.
GOP senatorial candidate J im
Martin stated in a campaign
speech here that "more Senator
Byrds are needed in the U.S. Sen­ate."
Now anyone who knows
anything about politics knows
that the national Republican
Party wouldn't touch Senator
Byrd with a 10-foot pole. On the
other hand, the candidates pro­claim
that the national GOP holds
the future prosperity of Alabama
in its hands.
Both parties in Alabama ad­vocate
a rigid policy of segrega­tion.
Republicans offer their party
as an escape from "Kennedyism"
in this respect. Can anyone who
has ever heard Richard Nixon or
Nelson Rockefeller speak on this
matter believe such a statement
to be true?
The Democrats are just as
amusing. Sen. Lister Hill backed
some 59 per cent of the admin­istration's
program during the
last Senate session. Meanwhile,
Sen. Russell of Georgia and Sen.
Eastland of Mississippi came to
Alabama to aid the campaign of
Senator Hill. The divergence of
voting records amongst these
three veterans defies description.
away from a certain football field
in a certain Florida city.
Conclusion number one: The
Auburn Spirit, (This term has
been grossly overused on this
page, but I can't help mentioning
it), is still with us. In the final
minutes of the game when defeat
was all but certain the Auburn
section was yelling as if the score
was reversed. Then when the
game was over, instead of walk­ing
silently away with head bow­ed,
everyone flocked around the
band and the cheerleaders. No­body
wanted to leave. Long after
the Florida cheering section was
quiet and the victory bell had

entitled: "What Seniority Has but the entire cheering section
Done For Alabama." It states, "No was having a pep rally. Once
new senator or representative, again "War Eagles" rang through-even
though a genius but with­out
seniority, could replace any
one of Alabama's present Demo­cratic
congressmen for years to
come." This seniority business is
all fine and good if it is accom­panied
by fruitful activity. To
make seniority an issue in itself
is ridiculous. Vases on a mantle
acquire seniority in abundance,
but a gathering of dust is their
only signal of accomplishment.
out the afternoon and on into
the night, and Gainesville swelled
with the sound of victory—for
the losing team.
Conclusion number two: The
Florida student body is among the
most courteous and friendly in
the country. The campus was
thrown wide open to us both be­fore
and after the game. All
morning long, informal guided
tours o"f the campus were the

somewhat reminiscent of yester­day's
campus elections except the

in the Glomerata. Neither elec­tion
supplied real issues, but the
statewide campaign held the ad­vantage
in the batttle of laughs.
THE YEAR OF
THE TIGER'
later on that afternoon and night,
they hardly mentioned the game
except for an occasional shocked,
almost apologetic, "Boy, that sure
was a surprise." Auburn talked
more of the game than did Flor­ida—
much more. In a situation
which could easily have lent i t ­self
to taunting and cockeyness
the Florida attitude left little to
be desired. They were good win­ners.
Conclusion number 3: The
general football fan of Florida is
as rude as the Florida student
is courteous. As soon as the fact
of victory became apparent, the
Florida fans sprinkled through­out
the Auburn cheering section
became—to say the least—obnox­ious.
Several times in the final
quarter when the Plainsmen were
on the move and the Auburn sec­tion
stood to cheer, these gentle­men
also rose to their feet shout­ing,
"Sit down you damned
hicks," and other assorted un­printable
expressions.
Leaving the stadium some par­ents
stood around and laughed
you lost, Ha ha ha," and "Auburn
is crappy!! Auburn is crappy!"
Maybe these were exceptions to
the rule. Maybe I was sitting in
the wrong part of the stadium.
Maybe.
Conclusion number 4: The
Florida band, plus the Auburn
band, plus roughly 30 rifles, plus
a cannon plus fireworks, plus the
overture 1812, equals a specta­cular
halftime show.
Conclusion number 5: Losing is
a bitter feeling. We can talk of
one-sided referees and bad calls.
We can talk of the disadvantage
of playing Florida in Gainesville
and how they are always up for
the Auburn game. We can say
"if we had only held onto that
pass. If the only hadn't missed
that tackle." "If" is a big word.
But one fact remains—we lost.
Nothing can change that. It will
go into the record books as such,
and long after the "ifs" are for­gotten,
the score will remain.
Talk does no good.
Conclusion number 6: Many
lessons were learned by many
people Saturday afternoon. I will
not presume to enumerate these
lessons, but will instead pose a
question: If this loss is what it
took to inflame some people
enough to go the rest of the way
undefeated, was it worth it?
Conclusion number 7: The
lights on the Auburn practice
field will burn late this week.

Assistant Features Editor
Have you ever noticed at Auburn football games who yells
the loudest, "War Eagle's" the most and has the most fun?
Yep, the alums.
Auburn turns herself over to them this weekend. That
happens at every football game, but homecoming offers an
excuse to recognize the fact.
Fraternities, sororities, independents, and dorms (let's
see, that includes everybody) are working like mad to put on
a show. Teas, luncheons, the big "Saturday night dance" are
being planned to accelerate the already high spirits. People are
frantically searching for tickets to the game. And students are
wondering what the old grads will thing of their alma mater.
That question has been answered thousands of times: "It's
changed a lot." "It hasn't changed so much."
Samford's still here, Toomer's is still here, Broun's still
here. It's all so nostalgic, but tradition's a big thing.

stitution. They can be torn down, new ones can be built. They
change. The people never do. That's what's important.
Auburn students still make A's, flunk, crib on quizes,
have too good a time, get stood up, get married, wear skirts
too short, wear them too long, and talk too much.
Other problems haven't been alleviated—not enough
money, dumb students, too many intelligent ones, unsteady re­lations
between faculty and students, between townspeople
and the college, and Broun Hall is just plain unsteady.
But returning to a place that has seen so many good
times, so much hard work and that has been home to so many
people is like seeing an old friend again, or finding a part of
oneself that seemed to be lost.
It makes one recall his dreams, his purposes, and his am­bitions—
those things which are so easy to forget in a fast and
"forward"-moving society. At this university, untold numbers
have, for the first time, looked at themselves and at their re­lations
to life.
Some part of every Auburnite is here. That's the reason
for Homecoming—to find that part again. It can't be relived,
jut it can sure be remembered!

Theta Xi Adds House To Fraternity Row
By JAMES SIMS
Plainsman Feature Writer
There is a big smile up at 835 West Magnolia these days.
Although they've occupied their house for almost two months
now, the Theta Xi's still escort visitors on the "grand tour"
with as much pride and enthusiasm as if they themselves were
seeing their new home for the first time. While the eyes of
brothers sparkle with pride,
the eyes of guests open wide
with admiration as they gaze
at one of Auburn's most beau­tiful
fraternity houses.
The house is constructed of con­crete
block with a brick exterior.
From inside the foyer, steps lead
up to the dining room and down
to the living room. The living
room is paneled with walnut pre-finish
plywood, and floors are of
hardwood block tile. A fire place
built into a brick dividing wall
separates the living room from the
TV den, and adds a warm, home­like
atmosphere.
Overlooking the living room, the
dining room is also paneled in
walnut with hardwood floors.
Sixty-five people may be fed with
ease; food is prepared in a modern
adjoining kitchen. Opening off the
back of the dining room is a patio
which enlarges the space avail­able
for partying. The ladies pow-

der room is on the same level with
the dining room. Also on this level
is the house mother's apartment,
consisting of three rooms.
There are twenty-four two-man
rooms in the dorm section, which
is two-story. Also contained in
this section are two offices for fra­ternity
officers. The chapter room
is located under the living room.
This room has been approved for
use as a fall-out shelter, and will
be stocked with a fourteen-day
food and water supply for 60 peo­ple.
The eventual cost of the house
will be around $200,000. This fig­ure
includes the cost of the house
itself, furniture, landscaping, and
architect's fees. The house is cen­trally
heated, and present plans
call for installation of air-condi­tioning
by the fall of 1963.
The architect was Mr. Shelby
Dean of Auburn, and the contrac­tor
was the firm of Burns, Kirk-ley,
and Williams.
Theta Xi is one of Auburn's
newer fraternities, receiving its
charter in 1954. The house is one
of the few at Auburn which is
completely dry. NO alcoholic bev­erages
are allowed either in the
living area or the dorm section.

By WALTER MASSEY
Plainsman Feature Writer
On March 1, 1961, President Kennedy issued a presiden­tial
order that established the Peace Corps, a revolutionary or­ganization
designed to further favorable relationships between
the United States and the other nations of the world. Begun
as a pilot project, this program has grown tremendously. To­day,
the United States has
Peace Corps representatives in
38 foreign countries and is
continually working to fill new
requests for volunteers.
Recently Mr. Robert Bryan vis­ited
Auburn as an official repre­sentative
of the Peace Corps.
During his visit, Mr. Bryan out­lined
the various undertakings
and accomplishments of the Peace
Corps. The effects of the Peace
Corps so far have had, as he said,
"phenomenal impact" on the
countries in which the Peace
Corps is represented.
When the Peace Corps was first
set up in 1961, volunteers were
carefully trained in the various
fields in which they' planned to
work. The training program was
carefully designed to fit the coun­try
assigned to each group of vol­unteers.
Not only were the train­ees
given technical instructions,
but they were carefully familia­rized
with the culture of the na­tions
in which they were to
work and were taught to speak
the language fluently.
Consequently, these first Peace
Corpsmen, on arrival in their as-rival
in their assigned countries,
were able to quickly adjust to the
routine working situation. Af­ter
nine months the Peace Corps
was recognized as a complete suc­cess
by both the United States arid
the countries cooperating in the
program.
The reason for the enthusiasm,
on the part of these countries in
the Peace Corps program is that
they realize that the people of
their countries will be able- to
gain some impression of the aver­age
American. An informal peo­ple
is less likely to be swayed by
communist propagandists if they
have a basis for comparison. Here,
at last, the average Philippino for
example, can meet an American
who is willing to wash side by side
with him, an American interested
in him, not in swaying him with
a long poltical line.
At the present, there are three
thousand Peace Corps volunteers
serving in foreign countries. All
volunteers over eighteen years and
possessing a high school degree
wijL be considered for foreign as­signment.
Backgrounds in such
practical fields as agriculture are
highly-.desirable, since the aim of
the Peace Corps is to work side
by side with- the natives, rather
than serve as technical experts as
advisors. The youngest member of
the Peace Corps today is eighteen
years old. The oldest member, a
civii engineer serving in Pakis­tan,'
is 7.6 years old. The average
age of- the women is 24 years. One
hundred seventy-six married cou.r
pies are in the Peace Corps, many
of wfyam met while in service.
ifere^-at Auburn, Dean Foy is
ser.ying as liaison officer for the
Peace Corps. It is his duty to issue
applications and send them on to
Washington. When they reach
Pejiqe.Corps Headquarters, the ap­plications
are coded and fed into

training or after he arrives in a
foreign country.
The training received in prepa­ration
for the Peace Corps is val­ued
at roughly equivalent to a
year's graduate study. Courses of
instruction are given at the 45 col­leges
and universities participating
in the Peace Corps program. All
transportation and educational
expenses are paid by the govern­ment.
Since this program is under
the watchful care of the P e a ce
Corps, one can be assured that the
training received will be of the
best quality available. This is only-reasonable,
however, when one
considers the vast cultural gap
that must be spanned between the
United States and the countries of
the Orient, in particular.
In addition to an opportunity for
patriotic service and free educa­tion,
there are other benefits of
the Peace Corps.
Besides paying all expenses, the
government sets aside $75 each
month into an allowance fund
which is granted to the Peace
Corp worker upon the termination
of his services. This allowance us­ually
amounts to about $1,800,
based on an average of two year's
service. Also all men of draft
age will be deferred while in the
Peace Corps. Medical care is
stressed while in foreign countries.

Eagle Of 1864 Began Famous Cry;
War Eagle III Continues Tradition
. „ „ v __.•_.-__.....-....3
By DON PHILLIPS
Features Editor
During the summer of 1864, Grant and Lee met each
other in the dense forests near Charlottesville, Va., in some
of the bloodiest battles of the war—the Battles of the Wild­erness.
It was in the wake of one of these battles that an Alabama
soldier found himself the lone
survivor of his regiment. The
field around him was bare; not
even a blade of grass had escaped
the deadly Yankee onslaught. He
himself was badly wounded.
Yet this b r a v e Alabamian
wasn't the only thing left living
on the field that day. By some
miracle a baby eagle had also
survived, and suddenly the two,
man and beast, found something
in common—they were alive.
The soldier kept the eagle as a
pet, and after the war was over
returned to his old Alma Mater
to teach. The now full sized eagle
came with him. He was an Au­burn
man.
For years the eagle and his
master w e r e familiar sights
around the Auburn campus. An-vre,
as the eagle was called, was
completely tame and often ac­companied
the professor to class.
Then came the Auburn-Geor­gia
Tech game of 1892, the first
football game Auburn ever, play­ed,
and naturally Anvre was right
there, prancing up and down the
sideline. When the final whistle
blew on a 26-0 Auburn victory,
the aged eagle lifted his wings
and gave a shrill cry of victory.
Then he fell to the turf, dead.
The excitement had been too
much for him.
The football team sadly buried
Anvre, and remembering his ori­gin,
adopted their own cry of vic­tory
in his honor . . . "War
Eagle!" A tradition was born.
* * *
From 1892 until 1930, Auburn
had no live mascot. Then in 1930
a bald eagle was captured near
Opelika, and was turned over to
the college to be used as a mascot.
However, the eagle was full
grown and after a few years in
captivity it died.
Then in the winter of 1961, an­other
wounded eagle came to the
Auburn campus.
It all began in November of
the previous year when a Golden
Eagle came down out of the
mountains surrounding Tallade­ga,'
Ala., probably in search of
food. His wanderings in the val-

EAGLE SHIRTMAKERS PROUDLY ANNOUNCES
r * . A DACRON/COTTON OXFORD
THAT WILL NOT PILL!
OH, given time a short-necked man with a heavy beard could pill any oxford
cloth, they're that soft. But until just recently even Little Lord Fauntleroy
could have pilled a DACRON/cotton oxford cloth shirt with one curl tied behind
him. Which is why we didn't put out any of them. •& Sure you know what pilled
means; it's when the fabric gets roughed up into little pills. * Well, Du Pont has
a brand new type DACRON that resists pilling. It came out about a year ago, but
we waited until Greenwood Mills, the weavers who make our cotton oxfords
produced a DACRON/cotton oxford they were proud of; a really luxuriant lofted
oxford. And that brings us up to now. We are making Eagle Shirts of this new
material in both a Tabsnap®collar and a button-down collar. At about $8.50.
: • ; : «
& Tabsnaps, you may recall, are Eagle tab collars that need no collar buttons.
Our button-down collars also have a property highly prized by the toney
cognoscenti**: a sort of sloppy bulge. We used to call this "flare" until we noticed
everybody else was too. Besides, it really isn't a flare, it's a sloppy bulge, but it?s
ours and we like it. -k So if you want a drip-dry oxford shirt that won't pill
perhaps you'd better drop a note to Miss Afflerbach (she says forget the footnote)
and ask her where in your town you can find Eagle Shirts. This is because many
fine stores prefer to put their own labels in our shirts; very .flattering, but tough
on Eagle eyed shoppers. Write her care of Eagle Shirtmakers, Quakertown, Pa.

ley led him to the farm of Car­son
Whitson, then Talladega
Postmaster. There he became
trapped between two rows of cot­ton,
couldn't spread his wings to
fly, and was shot by Negro cot­ton
pickers.
The next day Whitson noticed
something moving around in the
field and discovered the wounded
bird. Although wounded and un­able
to fly the eagle made a des­perate
bid for freedom by run­ning
down a row of cotton and
across an open field. They had
to chase him down in a pickup
truck.
Whitson then turned the eagle
over to County Agent, O. V. Hill,
who-in turn sent him to Auburn.
Upon arrival at Auburn he was
given to the Wildlife Service for
treatment of his wounds. While
in their care it was determined
that he was a Golden Eagle, about
six months old. Golden Eagles
are not found generally in Ala­bama,
but each yeara few do
manage to make their way east
from the Rockies. At the time the
eagle had a six-foot wingspan

Her most important contribution is in improving the

with her own classical form. Many a college man has
discovered a previously unfelt craving for knowledge
simply because he received his copy of Homer from the

Homer is the most!" Yes, it pays to take a good look at

Bye, Bye, Bowl.. .
The vast and loyal following of the sports section of The
Plainsman (that marvelous group who only exist so that they
may run gleefully from their abodes and mentally consume
these pages each week) will recall that we made comment
recently concerning the Sugar Bowl. Sugar Bowls are a boon
to society . . . for sugar, etc. But they are much too small for
playing football anyway.
It was a long way to Florida . . . and a longer way back. A Gator
team made a name for itself. A Tiger team's youth was in evidence.
It must be observed that this is as it should be. Our young team
is good—it has the ability to be great—but not yet. Not when.we con­tinue
to be accident prone.
A season of 8-2 looks good, 9-1 looks even better. The Tigers
have not quit. A sophomore team never does.
A-junior-senior team would havg lost to Tennessee when behind
fourteen points. A junior-senior team, would not have held Georgia
Tech" during the second half of this year's game.
These Tigers have been " u p " ffrr every game this season, and
there will be no letdown-at.this stage of the game. ' *
The Florida students deserve recognition. As usual, their south­ern
.hospitality was overpowering . . . but not nearly so much as
their Southern Comfort.
Coach; Paul "Tater Chip" Bryant managed to tell his fans Sun­day
(between Coca-Cola belches) that "the boys showed some real
fine pursuit and would somehow manage to "be there" when Bama
meets Miami tomorrow. *
To the unlearned among you, Alabama officially opens its foot­ball
season this week, having had breathers thus far this season. From
now on out the going will definitely be rough."
Poor Glomers . . .
It is that time of the year .when the Plainsman staff and the
members of Auburn's second-rate publication (the Con-Glomerata)
vie with each other to ascertain which (if either) of the two groups
js the better football team.
The game will be played in Cliff Hare Stadium, and will, of
' course, be tough. Since the contest will be co-ed, certain special rules
about the type of touching allowed will be drawn up under the di-
^ rection of Dean Cater, who supervises all co-educational touching on
the Auburn campus.
The top ten of last week has a pretty difficult time . . . arid the
statement was made (by an allegedly competent sports columnist)
that the SEC would never last. Now this fella has made this same
cornball statement for at least the last three years and we are still
here. Why not?
The SEC is without a doubt one of the strongest conferences
in the nation. In fact, it is rated after the Big Ten and Big Five
of the West Coast. It might be noted that if we were to drop
; Vandy and Tul.ane from the SEC we would be rated the number
one conference.
If you are unconscious, this note is to you. It is homecoming.

Auburn Attempts To Avenge
To The Unconscious . . .
If you plan to be unconscious tomorrow night . ' . , ah, this is
another story. One of the oldest sports known to man, as you well
know, is elbow bending. It can be done in, out of, under, over, around,
near, beside, and with no relation to. However, become not too zea­lous
at this game. The winners often receive rewards of black wreaths
and other trophys nearly as undesirable.
We favor a certain game along this line, the particulars of which
were imparted to us by a certain group of young ladies of this fair
campus.
Three people (preferably trustworthy friends) must assemble
themselves in a small room, not to exceed nine feet square, with a
minimum of two kegs of amber liquid.
After each of this trio has consumed his portion of the goodies, the
tallest leaves the room, returns home and promptly barfs.
The other two may remain as long as the game continues . . . the
lobject of which is, understandably, to guess who left.
Starting Eleven Prepared For Contest
Following Surprising Defeat By Gators
By GERRY HODGES
Plainsman Sports Writer
There is a desire in the heart of most high school players
who plan to play college football to someday make the start­ing
eleven at the college of their choice. The s t a r t i n g team
is something which players strive and struggle to attain, for
these players know that this is where the best are. Even in
this day of two and three platoon
football the first team is the one
which the coach usually plays
the most .and depends on when
the going is the toughest. •
The same is true here at Au­burn,
although undoubtedly the
second string cannot be over^
looked, for they have contributed
greatly to the Tiger success story.
Now let's take a look at the 11
men of Auburn's first unit.
At left end is junior Howard
Simpson from Marietta, Georgia.
Howard is the favorite target of
quarterbacks Kent and Sidle, and
he leads the team in most passes
and most touchdown passes
caught. This p l a y e r meets
every qualification for a good
end—size, speed, and good hands.
Howard is 6'5" and weighs 210,
runs the 50 in 6.0 seconds, and
catches as if he has glue on his
fingers. He also is one of the best
all-around athletes on the squad,
as is evidenced by the fact that he
was a starter on the Auburn
freshman basketball team.
Going to left tackle, we find
big Joe Baughn from Bessemer,
Alabama. Joe, after spending two
years of alternating between
tackle and guard, found a home
at left tackle. At 6'3" and 232
pounds, Joe is rated by many
(people as the toughest defensive
lineman on the team. He is the
brother of Georgia Tech's All-
American Maxie Baughn and he
is doing a fine job of living up
to his family's football name. As
proof of his rugged and aggres­sive
nature, teammates regard
him as toughest player to face
in man to man drills.
Next we move to left guard
and find tough little Billy. Van
Dyke. Small, at 5'10" and 206
pounds, Billy Van Dyke has not
let this stop him from being one
of the major reasons for Auburn's
success this year. Before last
spring, Van Dyke was virtually
unheard of, but he worked his
way up to make up for the so-called
weakness at guard. This
cat-like guard has good speed
and with his obviously outstand­ing
hustle and enthusiasm, he
seems to be a typical example of
the Auburn spirit this year.
At center, we find huge Jim
Price, who played his high school
ball in Texas. After a good sopho­more
year and a fair junior sea­son,
he is having a great senior
year. Perhaps no other position
depends as much on one man as
the center post, but Price now
seems confident after a shoulder
operation last year and he is do-

Maroons Plan To Spoil Festivities,
As Cliff Hare Set For Annual Event

The A u b u r n Tigers attempt to find t h e winning t r a i n this
weekend as the tough Mississippi State Maroons invade the
Plains for a homecoming tilt.
The deflated Plainsmen, fresh from a stunning 22-3 upset
a t t h e hands of the Florida Gators last week, will be in good
physical condition for the en
counter with no major injuries
reported from last Saturday's
contest.
State is in the midst of one of
its best seasons in years. Though
unimpressive, the 3-3 Maroon re­cord
is the best at this point of
the season in several years. State
has downed Tennessee, 7-6, Tu-lane,

SHUG JORDAN—Nation's Sixth Winningest Coach
Shug Jordan Interviewed
Cited For Auburn Work
By GERALD RUTBERG
Plainsman Sports Writer
For a gentleman who is quoted and pursued nearly every
day throughout the land, being interviewed by The Plainsman
on the eve of another homecoming spectacular is a natural.
Every Auburnite, whether past, present or future owes a
great deal to Head Football Coach "Shug" Jordan (JERden)
not only for his success on the
gridiron, but also for the contri­butions
he has made to the ever
BILL VAN DYKE JIMMY JONES GEORGE GROSS JIMMY BURSON . . { >
rising stature of this great insti­tution.
In talking with him, one can­not
help but sense the aurora of
confidence and competency which
has been gained through many
years of diligent toil and experi­ence.
Speaking with a great deal
of caution, every statement is
weighed carefully to guard against
its being misconstrued. This char­acteristic
is a result of his being
in the public eye continually for
many years where a single phrase
often brings negative controversy.
Another tribute to Coach Jor­dan's
all-around congeniality is
the ease in which it is possible to
reach and converse with him des­pite
the problems and rigors that
any succesful coach must cope
with constantly.
This interview was conducted
on a question and answer basis
with queries ranging from an op­inion
on national rankings to 1
views on the future outlook for
the Tigers.
Mincing few words on the sub­ject
of national ratings and the
various polls conducted prior to
the season, Coach- Jordan asserted
that they proved little and in­crease
the pressure on the favo­rites
who find themselves the tar­get
of supposed- underdogs each
week. "Coaches take little stock
in them," he said, and most men­tors
have condemned them, but
they are maintained because of
the wide reader interest they stir.
In the closely related field of
selecting All-Americans and out­standing
performers before the
start and completion of a season,
he feels that while an athlete
should come at the conclusion of
a campaign and certainly not dur­ing
it, where the strain on an in­dividual
may cause untold damage
psychologically.
As to the scheduling of the ma­jor
football powers, Coach Jor­dan
pointed out that each team
is bound to its respective confer­ence
for six to seven games and
in the case of the Big Ten—SEC,
void in intersectional battle. It is
due to the racial differences which
divide the .respective schools. He
noted that Auburn is to play TCU
in 1964 and Baylor in 1965, while
the Tigers have tried to work out
a contract with Mississippi and
LSU as well as an arrangement
with Rice and the University of
Texas to no avail, during recent
years.
Finally the conversation arrived
on the present season and the
game against Mississippi State.
Playing at home, where only one
defeat since 1952 has been in­flicted,
the Plainsmen will be
looking to bounce back after their |
(See JORDAN, Page 3-B)
while losing to surprising Mem­phis
State, 28-7, mighty Alabama
20-0, and Florida 17-9.
The Maroons are paced defen­sively
by Johnny Baker, labeled
by many as the "meanest SEC
end ever." Baker's name is fam­iliar
to Auburn rooters. It was he
who single-handedly wrecked
Bobby Hunt and Auburn's offense
last year! It was he who made a
diving catch in the end zone for
State's final touchdown and it
was he who immediately' hauled
in a Charlie Furlow pass for the
two-point conversion that com­pleted
State's shocking 11-10 up­set
of Auburn in Birmingham. A
sure-fire All-SEC selection this
year and a potential AU-Ameri-can,
big Johnny will be the chief
Maroon to watch Saturday.
Charlie Furlow has been one of
the SEC's leading passers this
year with a 61.5 per cent com­pletion
mark. State's rushers are
paced by halfback Odie Burrell,
the SEC's third-leading rusher
with 275 yards to his credit.
The Tigers saw their hopes
dimmed somewhat by the defeat
at the hands of the Gators. Fumb­les,
interceptions, and a "dis­organized
effort" by the Plains­men
were the ingredients of the
thorough trouncing. The lone
bright spots were the razor-sharp
passing of Kent and Sidle, and
the efforts of Van Dyke and
Downs.
State comes to Auburn fresh
from a futile bout with the Crim­son
Tide. The game was a tough
battle to the end. Coach Paul
Bryant stated that this was the
best game an Alabama team has
played since his return to Tus­caloosa.
Even so, the Alabama team
was hard-pressed. A sub-par per­formance
will not win for the
Tigers this Saturday.
Last Saturday began a disas-'
trous streak for the Maroons. The
crippling schedule calls for con­tests
against Alabama, Auburn,
LSU, and Ole Miss within five
weeks. After a gallant perfor­mance
against Bama last week,
the Bulldogs will be up for this
| encounter.
Plainsman Set For 69th Victory Over Glomers

defeat by the Florida Gators.
Speaking for the entire staff,
Coach Jordan stated that he felt
gratified at' the progress of his
relatively young charges this sea­son.
A great deal of cooperation,
spirit and devotion to condition­ing
has led to their present record
but there is still .room for a great
deal of improvement.
Another factor in this year's
surprising success has been the
support of the student body, to a
person, who seems to feel that
this is their team and its perfor­mance
depends on the backing of
every War Eagle. Coach Jordan
has been greatly appreciative of
this support and feels that it has
played a key role this season. The
complacency which creeped in
when Auburn went undefeated
for a 24-game perio din 1956-57-
58 is no longer present, in its
place a campus ready to meet any
challenge that has arisen.
For the record Coach Jordan
really a success unless the football
has been coaching 33 years and
his record is a sterling one. 183
wins, 93 losses and 19 ties mark
his career. At Auburn, our head
coach has compiled a 75-20 mark
since the rebuilding years of
1951-52. His athletes have main­tained
respectable scholastic
standing and most of them have
gone on to success in a variety of
fields. Players under Jordan who
have gone on to pro-football
number sixteen and under the
guiding influence of this fine
coach no less than eleven Ail-
Americans and 20 All-SEC
awards have been gained.

This week proved to be very disastrous for the Plainsman picksters as all averages fell down.
Welch came through with his worst week as he missed five games. Williams suffered the greatest
humaliation as he dropped into last place. Old Slippery Rock came through again as they
downed Lock Haven. This week they meet Clarion State in the final game of the season, and once
again the Plainsman is picking them to win this one. If The Rock comes through again, they will enH
the season with, an 8-1 record and possibly the: Western Pennsylvania championship. We wish them
the best of luck for this game. ::

Once again the excitement is
mounting as the biggest game of
the year is fast approaching. Some
45,000 fans are expected to be on
hand to witness the wonderful,
magnificant, glorious PLAINS-MAN-
GLOMERATA f o o t b a ll
game on Friday night, November
23. Kickoff time will be at 7:32
p.m., that is if the Glomers even
show up.
This series is the oldest football
rivalry in America. It had its be­ginning
way back in 1893 when
the plainsman brought in a 94-
0 victory. Since this time the
Plainsman has run its winning
string to sixty eight straight with
scores ranging from a 72-0 squek-er
in 1936 to a 123-0 smash in
1957.
Coach Woody Hayes of the
Plainsman said in an interview
last Monday, "Ohio State may not
be able to win all their games, but
1 feel sure that my wonderful
Plainsman team will bring home
victory number sixty-nine with no
trouble." Mr. James E. Foy, the
Glom coach, had nothing to say
except, "I sure do hope I can talk
the Glomers into coming out on
the field this year."
In the previous 68 games, the
Glomers have forfeited 37 be­cause
they were too scared to
come out on the field to meet the
powerful Plainsman team. It is
hoped that they will show up this
year after finally consenting to
have the team picture made for
the first time in history.
The Plainsman will be led by
their mighty quarterback, "Charg­ing
Charlie" McCay,, who stands
6'-3" and weighs in at 284 pounds.
McCay who has made Ail-Ameri­can
tackle for the past two years
was shifted into the quarterback
slot to take full advantage of his
lightning speed and great passing
ability. From all pre-game esti­mations
it looks as though McCay
will easily beat out George Mira
and Billy Lothridge for the Ail-
American honors this year.
At fullback will be one of the
most powerful runners ever to be
seen on the Plains. "Hammer­head"
Williams. Williams is ex­tremely
strong and amazingly fast

Ole Miss And Bama Remain Unbeaten
As SEC Football Enters Home Stretch
By RICHARD PAYNE
Plainsman Sports Writer
The University of Mississippi,
led by ace quarterback Glynn
Griffing, shattered the LSU eleven
by a score of 15-7. This was the
first victory Mississippi (7-0) has
tasted over the Tigers of LSU (5-
1-1) in regular season competition
in five years. The Rebels held the
Tigers to a total yardage of 107.
Jerry Stovall, LSU All-American
candidate, scored the lone Tiger
touchdown in the second quarter.
From this point on it was all Ole
Miss. Griffing was almost a one-man
show completing 15 of 25
passes for a total of 178 yards and
two touchdowns. The!,T.igers were
never in the game in the*; second
half and were held to-avminus
yardage. This victory over LSU
bolstered Mississippi's bid for a-
Sugar Bowl bid and tbe'jriatibnal
championship title. ' •' • - T
Alabama (7-0) vaulted over
ambitious Mississippi State 20-0.
Joe Namath completed 12 of 19
passes and directed the Crimson
Tide to their 34th consecutive vic­tory.
Cotton Clark upped his
Southeastern Conference scoring
punched in from the four-yard
line in the first quarter. Namath
connected with Bill Battle for two
six-pointers in the second and
third quarters with aerials of 27
and 8 yards respectively.
Florida slashed Auburn 22-3.
The Gator's heads up football was
too much for the Tigers who could
not keep from making mistakes.
This ended the string for Auburn
of five straight wins, and very
possibly killed the Tigers' bid for
another conference crown.

GLOOM AT THE TOP
Oh, sure, you've been busy, what with going to classes, doing
your homework, catching nighfr)«rawJers, getting married—
but can't you pause for just a momentrand give thought to that
dear, dedicated, lonely man iff&e big white house on the hill?
I refer, of course, to the Prexy. i. 1 ;y.j
• -'(It is interesting*to" note herettbati college presidents are al­ways
called "Prexy." Similarly, trustees are called "Trixie."
Associate professors are called~"Axy-Pixy." Bursars are called
J.'Foxy-Woxy." Students are called"H&gae'.")
But I digress. We were speakingaafcthe Prexy, a personage at
once august and pathetic. Why pathetic? Well sir, consider how
Prexy spends his days. He is l5Ssy,!i&us£; busy. He talks to
deans, he talks to professors, he talks to trusteees, he taHss to
alumni. In fact, he talks to everybody except the one group
who could lift his heart and rally his spirits. I mean, of course,
the appealingest, endearingest, winsomest group in the entire
college—you, the students.
It is the Prexy's sad fate to be forever a stranger to your
laughing, golden selves. He ean only gaze wistfully out the
window of his big white house on the hill and watch you at your
games and sports and yearn with all his tormented heart to bask
in your warmth. But how? It wpuld hardly be fitting for Prexy
to appear one day at the Union, clad in an old rowing blazer,
and cry gaily, "Heigh-ho, chaps! Who's for sculling?"
mm^^M No, friends, Prexy can't get to you. It is up to you to get to
him. Call on him at home. Just drop in unannounced. He will
naturally be a little shy at first, so you must put him at his
ease. Shout, "Howdy-doody, sir! I have come to bring a little
sunshine into your drear and blighted life!" Then yank his
necktie out of his vest and scamper goatlike around him until
he is laughing merrily along with you.
Then hand him a package and say, "A little gift for you, sir.^
"For me?" he will say, lowering his lids. ."You shouldn't
have."
"Yes, I should," you will say, "because this package is
a carton of Marlboro Cigarettes, and whenever I think of
Aferlboro, I think of you."
"Why, hey?" he will say curiously.
"Because Marlboros have taste, and so do you," you will
reply-
"Aw, go on," he will say, blushing furiously.
"It's true," you will say. ."Moreover, Marlboro has a filter,
and so do you."
,"In my swimming pool, you mean," he will say.
?Yes," you will say. ."Moreover, Marlboro has a soft pack,
and so do you."
"My limp leather brief case, you mean," he will say.
"Yes," you will say. "Moreover, the Marlboro box has a
flip-top, and so do you."
"But I don't have a flip-top," he will say.
"But you will," you will say. "Just light a Marlboro, and
taste that tasty taste, and. you will surely flip your top."
Well sir, you will have many a good chuckle about that, you
may be sure. Then you will say, "Goodbye, sir, I will return
soon again to brighten your lqrh and desperate life."
''Please do," he will say. "But next time, if you can possibly
manage it, try not to come at four in the morning."

several passes to go awry. A slip­pery
field and football lent them­selves
well to the alert Flori-dians'
efforts and in the final re­sult
it was just not Auburn's day.
Statistically, four departments
stood out. Auburn fumbled six
times and lost the ball on three
of the bobbles while Florida fum­bled
twice but pounced on them
immediately. Pass interceptions
show that the Gators grabbed two
aerials while the Tigers allowed
10 passes to be completed and
snared none of them. Individually
Jon Kilgore found a below stand­ard
day also, as he kicked seven
times for 30.5 average against his
usual 43-yard production. This
may have cost him his SEC lead.
According to the officials it was
a penalty-light game as a total of
five yards was assessed against
Auburn to 25 for the Gators.
Owing to the wet field, there
was a lack of the usual razzle-dazzle
play, and most of the run­ning
plays were punishing power
plays over tackle. Several long
runs were thwarted as backs
would slip and blockers slide
while exerting a final cut.
In suffering their first loss in
six games the Tigers also slipped
from the national rankings, ab­sorbed
their first defeat at the
hands of the Gators since 1956,
and fell from their tie for first
place in the Southeastern Con­ference.
It was an unfortunate
blow to the Plainsmen, who have
been labeled the surprise 11 for
1962.

Prepare To Battle Tech
By GEORGE JOHNSON
Plainsman Sports Writer
Auburn's tough' track team lit­erally
ran away from Alabama's
cindermen in a dual cross-coun­try
meet in Tuscaloosa Monday
by a 19-43 margin.
Six of the first seven men to
finish were Tigers. Led by Au­burn's
Charlie Patterson at a
time of 19:37, the first four men
to cross the finish line broke the
old record of 20:57 set in 1951.
sey. George played only one year
of football in high school, but he
has shown everyone. that he has
the ability. Many people feel he
has more potential than any tac­kle
ever to play for Auburn. This
year George has provided much
of the leadership which the team
has depended upon.
At right end we find a
man who Coach Jordan calls "Mr.
Clutch"—Don Downs. It seems
that whenever A u b u r n has
needed a real defensive play this
year, Don has been the one that
has made it. This is Don's last
year at Auburn, and he has come
back to make it his best. Donald
was a tremendous high school
Ail-American at Ensley High in
Birmingham, and this year he has
proven his ability to everyone.
Looking at the backfield, we
find junior Mailon Kent at quar­terback.
Mailon has provided
much of the steadiness and lead­ership
which the younger Tigers
have, needed this year. Here is
perhaps the best drop-back passer
in college football today. Mailon
played the best game of his col­lege
career against Georgia Tech
this- year, and he always seems
to-be at his best in the real close
'games':
Lookirig to left half, we find
Auburn's "Mr. Everything"—Jim­my'
Bur son. Jimmy is a tremen­dous
runner, fine safetyman, ex­cellent
receiver, and possibly Au­burn's
top back this year. Bur-
Son's comeback this year has been
one of the key factors in making
Auburn a winning team. In two
of Auburn's toughest games this
year, Burson came through with
BUY THEM
NEW IN W
THEY'LL STILL BE THE "CLASS" OF
the biggest play of the day.
Against Tennessee when Auburn
was trailing 14-3, Jimmy took a
punt and returned it 60 yards to
the three yard line to give Au­burn
the boost they needed to go
on and win. Against Tech, Jimmy
took a pitchout on Auburn's first
play from scrimmage and dashed
57 yards for a touchdown, to lead
the Tigers on to the victory.
At right half, we find tough
Larry Laster. With Larry in the
backfield, his hard running tac­tics
make it appear as if Auburn
has two fullbacks. As is true with
the Rawsons, Larry had another
brother to play for the Tigers—
Jimmy Laster. Larry seems to do
his best running inside the 20
yard line, where the running is
the toughest.
Moving to fullback, Larry Raw-son,
the second of three brothers
to play for Auburn, holds down
the starting position. Last year,
Larry was the third leading rush­er
in the SEC, was the leading
rusher for Auburn, and gained
more yards than any sophomore
fullback ever has at Auburn. Be­sides
being excellent on offense,
Larry is hard to take out of a
play when he is at his lineback-ing
post. He was a unanimous
pick on the SEC all-soph t e am
last year and is exceptionally fast
for a fullback.
Only Smith of Alabama, who fin­ished
second, was able to squeeze
in front oF Lynch, BUckelew,
Kearns, Feagin, and Winter of
Auburn..
This was the Tigers' second win
of the season. Last week the Ti­gers
beat Florida at Auburn by
a score of 42-19, over the 3%-
mile course.

AGR-SN
Alpha Gamma Rho knocked
Sigma Nu out of a possible tie
for league championship by de­feating
them 2-0 on a safety. The
safety came in the second quarter
when Tommy Hilliard caught
SN's quarterback in the end zone.
Dan Smith and Tommy Hilliard
staged quite a defensive show as
they stayed on the SN quarter­back
all afternoon.
This was one of the hardest
fought games of the season. AGR
kept SN backed up to their goal
most of the afternoon but were
unable to push over a six pointer.
SN broke up one of AGR's most
serious scoring threats when de­fensive
back Dexter Brooks in­tercepted
a pass on the one yard
line. Another threat was killed
when Dickie Mullins intercepted
on the two yard line. AGR's out­standing
pass receiver was center
Bob Jordan. Ends Don Moore and
Jack McCuiston were also stand­outs
on offense.
The ball game ended in mad
frustration as SN tried desper­ately
to score in the last 50 sec­onds.
They had pass after pass
batted down by AGR defenders.
An official called pass interfer­ence
on the sixteen and that's
where the ball was when the
game ended.

ATO-DU
Alpha Tau Omega defeated
Delta Upsilon in a sudden death
to win the league 2' champion­ship.
The win left the ATO's with
a 4-1 record while DU, AGR.iand
SN each have 3-2 records. J
ATO received the opening kick-off
and failed to move the ball.
DU took the ATO punt and
moved within the ATO 15 yard
line. Here the ATO's held and
took over on downs. From this
point ATO started a drive that
carried them close to the DU goal.
A tight DU defense held and the
half ended with the score 0-0.
The second half was a repeat
of the first half as neither team
could score. In the sudden death
play-off, ATO completed four
pases for a total gain of 42 yards.
The DU's failed to gain and ATO
wrapped up the league champion­ship.
Outstanding for ATO were
Charles Sanders, Jerry Triplett,
Ralph Jenkins, John Whatley, and
Frank Whatley.

The Delta Chi's, using a con­sistent
offense and a tremendous
defense, handed the Phi Kappa
Tau's their first defeat Thursday,
12 yards to zero, in an overtime
period which climaxed the regular
game of a zero-zero tie. The Del­ta
Chi's completed two passes to
blocking back Bill McCartney and
end Rusty Fulbright good for
12 yards, while the Phi Tau's fail­ed
to complete a pass on the
Delta Chi defensive unit. The
only serious scoring threat was
made late in the third quarter
when the Delta Chi's drove to the
four yard line, but a hard rush­ing
Phi Tau line kept tailback
Don Rayfield from completing
any passes and the ball ended up
on the Phi Tau 20. Most of the
game was played at mid-field
and featured hard rushing and
excellent pass defense by both
teams. On the line for the Delta
Chi's, ends Cliff Lewis and Rusty
Fullbright were outstanding; on
offense and defense while backs,
Don Rayfield, Jerry Thomas,
Tommy Springfield and E r ic
Smith played well in the second­ary
which picked off six Phi Tau
passes. Rayfield intercepted five
passes and completed 62 per cent
of his possession offense.

Miss State Game
Should Once Again
Produce Many TD's
By GEORGE GARDNER
When the Auburn Tigers meet
the Mississippi State Bulldogs in
Cliff Hare Stadium tomorrow, it
will be the thirty-sixth time that
these two schools have met on the
gridiron. The Tigers hold a dis­tinct
lead in this series with 20
wins and 13 losses. Two games
have ended in ties. These two
teams first met on the football
field in 1905, when the War Eagles
ground out an 18-0 victory.
There have been two long win­ning
skeins in this series. Auburn
whipped the Bulldogs 10 consecu­tive
times between 1905 and 1919,
then held the 'Dogs winless for
seven straight contests from 1953-
60.
Although Auburn held the State
team to 7 points or less for 12 con­secutive
games, in more recent
years the game has become known
as a high scoring affair. Since
1940 the winner has posted at
least two TD's, except for last
year when State won 11-10 by
virtue of a field goal and a two-point
conversion after the TD.
Perhaps the strangest game in
to force a playoff in League 1
with Sigma Chi.
After trailing 7 to 6 at half-time,
Jimmy Brewer intercepted
a KA pass on the second play of
the third and scampered 25 yards
for t h e winning touchdown.
Brewer then caught the extra
point pass from Joe Thomas to
end the scoring.
PDT took the opening kickoff
an marched down the field to
take a 6-0 lead on Clyde Prather's
touchdown. KA came back in t he
second quarter to score and add
the extra point to go ahead 7-6.
the series occurred in 1952, when
the Tigers scored 34 points, yet
lost 34-49. This game also marked
the most points ever scored by the
winner at 49, but the largest mar­gin
of victory was in 1913, when
the Tigers won 34-0. The worst
defeat ever suffered by Auburn
was in 1946, when the Bulldogs
handed the Tigers a 33-0 licking.
Down through the years the
score has averaged out 14.2-12.8,
in favor of the Plainsmen. The
Mississippi State team is unique
in that it has two nicknames, as
does the Auburn team. They are
known as both the Bulldogs and
the Maroons, since the school col- i
ors are maroon and white.
