Mobile Club Will Hold
Meeting Sunday Night
The Auburn-Mobile Club will have
an important meeting Sunday night
at eight forty-five in the Ramsay
Lounge. The meeting will be strictly
of a business nature, since plans for
the Christamas dance will be discus­sed
and samples of favors will be
presented to the club for approval.
The club hopes to surpass the
achievements of previous years un­der
their new leaders, namely:Tom
Brown, president; and Claude Cur-rey
and Howard Pringle in the capa­city
of co-secretaries. The Mobile
Club is composed of Auburn boys
residing in Mobile, and entertain at
a dance in Mobile each year during
Christmas we"ek. The purpose of the
organization is to draw Auburn men
closer together when they are out
of school and to forward the inter­ests
of Auburn in Mobile.
Officers expressed the hope that
all members would be present at the
mating, and that they would co­operate
with officials as fully as pos­sible
at all times.

Phenomenal Mass Meet
Is Held Friday Night
The walls of Langdon Hall echoed
the yells and shouts of over five hun
dred students during the phenominal
mass meeting last night as "Happy"
Davis, "Bull" Stier, and Calloway
worked the enthusiasm of the massive
crowd up to a high degree. The stu­dents-
assembled at Langdon Hall, fol
lowed the band in parade through
town, and reassembled at Langdon
Hall. Yells rolled forth, it seemed,
with a volume sufficiently strong to
be heard far over the plains.
"Can you fellows yell?" shouted
"Bull". He said something else, but
no one heard him.
J. E. Pitts, former coach, stated
that the outlook for the Tigers is
especially encouraging. "I saw the
game last Friday night at Crampton
Bowl," he said, "and I know that
each Auburn did some good football
playing. This is especially true in
the case of two or three players.
Each man, however, did some won­derful
playing."
Students sang the Alma Mater be­fore
the adjournment.
Lieut. Finch Speaks
to Opelika Kiwanians
Lieut. V. C. Finch, head of the de­partment
of aeronautical engineering
at Auburn, addressed the Opelika Ki
wanis Club at their luncheon Tuesday
on the proposed airport for Auburn
and Opelika. The talk was sponsor­ed
by the Opelika Chamber of Com­merce,
and a number of club mem­bers
and visitors listened to Lieut.
Finch.
Lieut Finch is a retired Naval avi­ator,
and assumed head professor­ship
of the newly created depart­ment
of aeronautical engineering at
the opening of the present college
year.
Student Orchestra
Plays For Social
The Auburn-Knights, student dance
orchestra, made its debut into social
circles when it played at a social giv­en
at the local Methodist Church last
night by the Epworth League. The
reception was held on the lawn ad­joining
the church and was well at­tended.
The orchestra was highly
lauded by the hundred students who
attended the affair.
Another of the features of the
program was a series of proposals
made by co-eds to their imaginary
lovers. Some romantic scenes were
said to have been exhibited. • <
First "A" Club Dance
Will Be Held Tonight
The first "A" Club Dance of the
season, will be given in the Gymm
tonight at nine o'clock, in honor of
the Auburn and Spring Hill teams
and the returning alumni of the col
lege.
Since today is Home-Coming Day
and many former students are in
town, this dance is expected to draw
a large attendance of both graduates
and students now in attendance.
Music will be furnished by the No­mads
of Montgomery, and dancing
will begin at nine o'clock.

New Dairy Plant Is
Ready For Operation
Prof. A. D. Burke, head of the Au­burn
dairy department, announces
that the dairy manufacturing plant
is now ready to manufacture butter
and ice cream. He said the plant is
anxious to buy sweet cream and
first-class sour cream from dairymen
in Lee County and adjoining coun­ties.
The new plant has been in opera­tion
since the opening of school and
has been distributing bottle milk.
The new manufacturing ventures are
expected to furnish a market for
dairy products and to stimulate the
dairy industry in Lee County. Pro­fessor
Burke pointed out that a new
opportunity is opened to dairymen.
He said, however, that the plant will
be interested only in first-class prod­ucts.
Dr. Bradford Knapp went to Mo­bile
Friday to speak to the members
of the Mobile Alumni Club Friday
evening, having been given a special
invitation by Horace Turner, presi­dent
of the Mobile Alumni Club, and
he was entertained at the summer
home of Mr. Turner. Although Dr.
Knapp was in Mobile Friday, he re­turned
to Auburn today in order to
see the Auburn-Spring Hill football
game.
Mr. J. V. Brown also attended the
meeting. On his way to Mobile, Mr.
Brown visited several of the Alumni
clubs. This is the beginning of a
series of visits which he will make to
the various Alumni clubs over the
State. These visits are to bring the
Alumni of Auburn closer together
and to increase the number of men
enrolled in the Alumni Association.
This year the Alumni office is so
situated that it can carry on more
efficient work, according to officers
of the Auburn alumni. Before be­ing
moved into what used to be the
old State laboratory, the office oc­cupied
a room over the Bank of Au-

An
NOTICE
important meeting of the
Plainsman staff will be held at the
Delta Sigma Phi house Sunday even­ing
at six-thirty.
In a hearing before the federal
radio commission Wednesday, P. O.
Davis, general manager of station
WAPI, testified that the present pow­er
under which the station operates
is inadequate to serve the broadcast
area of the state, and requested that
WAPI be authorized to erect a 50,-
000 watt transmitter. Mr. Davis con­tended
that reception in Alabama
was not equal to that in other sec­tions
of the country.
Lamden Kay, director of station
WSB Atlanta, supported Mr. Davis'
statement regarding reception in this
section. An investigation in a radius
of 50 miles of Atlanta revealed that
reception in Georgia was not com­parable
to that in Pennsylvania,
Ohio and other states. Mr. Kay is
likewise requesting increased, power
for WSB. * If these requests are
granted, the South will have two su­per-
power stations.

Let Everyone Go To
The Opening Dances
Friday, October 10, will mark the
opening dance of the Sophomore Hop.
May Auburn men put aside Dull Care
and trip the light fantastic, forgetting
the vicissitudinary routine of college
life in this, the premier social event
of the season.
Nothing is more pitiful than a one­sided
personality. Education does not
consist of the mere acquisition of in­formation.
No man can call himself
educated unless he has developed his
spiritual and physical being in close
harmony with the development of his
mind. Since the opening dances are
one of the three big social entertain­ments
of the year, the man who is
trying to get the most out of college
"can not well afford to miss them.
We feel it our duty to urge the
freshmen to attend the dances; in
failing to make the dances you are
omitting a very vital part of your
college career. Negilence of one's
social activities is very certain to
narrow one's view of life and to seri­ously
mar the rotundity of the stu­dent's
education. Let us therefore ent-
- er into the spirit of the dances and do
everything in our power to make them
a tremendous success by doing only
those things that tend to uplift the
reputation of the student body and
of the institution.
—Anon.
Dispensary Will Fill
Prescriptions Free
The establishment of a dispensary un­der
the supervision of the school of chem­istry
and pharmacy for the purpose of
filling free of charge prescriptions of stu­dents
is not only a most beneficial move,
but also a symbol of progress in our scien­tific
departments.
Professor L. N. Blake, head professor
of pharmacy, should be credited with hav­ing
combined the principles of theory and
practice in such a manner as to aid the
student body financially, with the assur­ance
that they will receive expert and
proper pharmaceutical service when it is
needed. The financial aid is of such a
nature as to reach every one and will be
of infinite value in reducing the expenses
of obtaining an education here.
The dispensary is not an experiment—it
is under the direction of a graduate in
pharmacy who has had six years' experi­ence
and is a registered druggist. There­fore,
there will be no dangers from the
improper compounding of drugs.
The Plainsman congratulates the school
of chemistry and pharmacy and feels that
the efficiency of the student health ser­vice
has been greatly increased.
to amend the depleted financial condition
of the band.
The service will be made through leased
wires direct from the games. Announce­ments
of the dates of the matinees will
be announced by band officers.
The Purposes Of The
Rat Cap Committee
The Rat Cap Committee, one of the
permanent committees of the executive
cabinet, has for its purpose the standard­ization
of the Freshman caps and the sup­ervision
of theii; sale. Although this com­mittee
has little to do after the school
year way, its duties at the first of the year
are important.
This committee consists of a chairman,
who is a senior member of the executive
cabinet, and three associates of whom
is elected by the "A" club, the other two
are selected by the cabinet from the stu­dent
body at large. Some of the duties
of this committee are: to adopt a standard
Rat Cap; to call for and award contracts
for these caps; to present at the.last meet­ing
of the Executive Cabinet in the spring
semester a complete report of its proceed­ings
"for approval; to divide any profits
from the sale of these caps equally be­tween
the "A" club and the Auburn Band;
to select, from a list of names submitted
by the "A" Club, two men to sell these
caps during registration, these men re­ceiving
as compensation for these services
twenty dollars each; and to set a selling
price of the cap at a profit not to exceed
50 per cent of the contract price.
The Plainsman believes that this commit­tee
did a good peice of work this year
when it cut the price of the caps from
one dollar and seventy-five cents to sev­enty-
five cents. Heretofore the price of
these caps has been exorbitant, the fresh­men
having been forced to pay much more
for the caps than they were actually worth
but this year it seems as if they have got­ten
value received.
WHY TRAVELERS TRAVEL
People nowadays want to go places to
see things done, not to view the sights
there as formerly. This, at least, is the
belief the Travel Association of. Great
Britain and Ireland. Acting on this theory
they are distributing booklets on "Events
of 1931", which are scheduled to take
place in the British Isles.
"Though our forefathers," the compilers
of thees booklets say, "traveled to see the
'Seven Wonders of the World,' we travel
to see great trials of strength and skill,
international contests in tennis, golf and
motor racing, the splendor of pageants
and royal courts, and to share in the
pleasures of the people of other countries."
Well, Europe may offer the American
traveler something in pageantry and popu­lar
festivals that he would not get in his
own country, but it is hard to see why
the travel promoters of England should
emphasize too much the sport events as
a bait to trans-Atlantic tourists. Broadly
speaking, we may saw that when bigger
and better boxing matches, automobile
races, and the like are staged, America
will stage them. Some of us sentimental
Americans see a sort of violation of the
eternal fitness of things in the turning of
historic spots of the Old World into thea­ters
for "great trials of strength and
skill." We would rather not hear of two
contenders ' for the world's heavyweight
championship settling their claims at Strat-ford-
on-Avon. International motor boat
contests may well be held on lakes other
than those in Wordsworth's region. Let
the Florida "real estate" metropolises
and the Western mining centers continue
to be the Meccas for the sporting elements
of the world.
, Doubtless, as old landmarks, with an­cient
customs, disappear, the places of the
Old World may have to rely more on
events, than on themselves to attract the
visitor from beyond the seas. But we no­tice
that steamship lines still advertise,
and very effectively, the atmosphere of
the countries to which they take the Amer­ican
tourists.—The Montgomery Advertis-
The Band Will Sponsor
Football Matinees
Since all of the students will not be
able to go to all of the out-of-town games,
the Auburn Band has arranged to sponsor
matinees of several games somewhat in
the same manner as it did last year.
It is not necessary to urge the student
body to attend these matinees. The ad­mission
is insignifant, and those who have
a real interest in the fortunes of the team
will attend.
Attendance will not only be an act of
loyalty, but a large crowd will do much
DURANT'S TWELVE DATES
The most significant thing about the
twelve dates chosen by Will Durant, his­torian-
philosopher, as the most important
ones in the history of mankind is that
nearly half of them have connection with
the lives of religious or ethical teachers.
It may be explained that The Forum is
publishing every month an article in which
some well-known writer selects the twelve
dates which seem to him most^momentous,
and Mr. Durant's selection appears in the
current issue as follows:
1. 424 B.'C. The Introduction of the
Egyptian Calendar.
2. 543 B. C. The Death of Buddha.
3. 478 B. C. The Death of Confucius.
4. 399 B. C. The Death of Socrates.
5. 44 B. C. The Death of Caesar.
6. (?) B. C. The Birth of Christ.
7. 632 A. D. The Death of Moham­med.
8. 1294 A. D. The Death of Roger Ba­con.

By Vasili Leoniduitch
Down at Woman's College, where wom­en
are women and men are talked about,
the student body has abolished all clubs
and clandestine organizations. £>trange
that it has taken them so long to realize
the futility of copying masculine frater­nities.
Woman can't be organized. She
is too narrow in her views, too opinion­ated,
and the little good she can do in the
world (if any) comes through her innate
power over man and not as an organized
force. —'
* * * * *
While playing at H. L. Menken, let me
say that woman is also the most self-de­ceptive
creature in the universe. The
petite modern maiden delights in follow­ing
a course that disregards all ethics of
society, knowing that she is doing the
foolish thing, while in her heart she re­joices
in the folly and lauds herself at
her indifference to conventions.
* * * * *
Worse still, most of the modern feminine
necessities are in love, hopelessly infatuat­ed
with themselves and popularity. They
are possessed with an insatiable passion for
parties, dances, and a variety of com­panionships—
always striving to perfect the
gentle art of gold-digging.
* * * * *
Yet men continute to.allow their senses
to be illuded, still murmur sickening
phrases to brazen hussies who know as'
much about love as a hideously painted
Robot with a skirt on.
* * * * *
Lest some be perplexed at my prejudice,
I wish to explain that four of the Leon-duitich
brothers have had their loves spurn­ed
by co-eds at Russian universities. Now
we are all vodka sots.
A Year Ago In Auburn
Auburn went down before a Clemson
air attack and lost her first conference
game of the season by a score of 26 to 7.
Jim Crawford and Lindley Hatfield starred
for Auburn.
The freshmen game with the Birming­ham-
Southern rats presented a different
tale, however. The Auburn frosh played
on a muddy field for three quarters, see­sawed
back and forth, and finally ran
across a touchdown in the last five min­utes
of play. Jimmie Hitchcock put the
ball in position for Sleepy Brown to car­ry
across. The score was 7-0.
* * * *
The opening dances were in full swing
and were declared excellent by everyone,
with Blaird's orchestra coming for a large
share of the praise. Over fifty girls were
in attendance at the first dance.
* * * *
Scabbard and Blade initiated eighteen
men before the morning dance, and during
the dance, several leadouts were held for
the militarists.
* * * *
Eleven students in the School of Science
and literature were elected to Beta Alpha
Sigma, local honorary business administra­tion
fraternity.
* * * *
Members of the batallion football teams
donned football uniforms and began train­ing
for the intra-mural contests.
The Gazook
I'm the Gazook who knows everything.
If anyone wants any advice, just ask me
because I know everything about nothing.
If everyone would take my advice this old
world would be much better off. I don't
know why the upperclassmen don't take
my advice but they seem to know more
than I do. Only four weeks ago my moth­er
told me that I was "her pride and joy
and I know everything."
Even in my classes the professors are
not teaching the most important things.
I think they should go out of the room
and let me teach their classes something.
If I had one wish, I would wish I were
King, and then I would make everyone
take my advice.

*> WITH OTHER COLLEGES
HEY DAY
The enterprising Greeks on the campus,
and we don't mean restaurant men, by the
way, have been busy the past month. Eligi­ble
frosh have been dined, wined, musiced,
and womened. Fraternity men are wond­ering
where their next meals are coming
from. Gold is pouring into the coffers of
musicians and caterers. Unknowing fresh­men
are beginning to imagine they're the
Salt of the Earth and the Dukes of Pneu­monia.
Y-o-u-1-1 find out, frosh; "Life is
real, life is earnest, and things aint what
they seem," as Whosthis sez. Wait, these
upperclassmen "woims" will turn. Woe

The cadets returning to Citadel this
year were quite pleased when they were
informed that smoking would be permitted
in their rooms this year. Is that nice?
Someone way back in Washington's time
started the belief that college students
are mere kids and that they had to be
looked after and over like six-year-olds.
Slowly but surely the college students
are being allowed to grow up and take
a little responsibility upon themslves. If
a person is old enough to smoke anywhere,
without burning himself up; why can't he
keep from burning up the building in
which he would like to smoke? Surely
ones does not/require any more brains
than the other. If a person is going to
smoke, he will if necessary, leave the build­ing
to smoke. Naturally he can keep his
mind on the problem he has been working
on, or read five or six pages of some text
book which he is studying, while he goes
outside to smoke.

COLLEGE DAZE
The college year has started off, quite
literally, with a "bang". Several of them,
in fact.
A university president and his student
body "have it out" during the first week
of school. The president says the men
must wear their coats to their cafeteria;
they tell their president to get hot. So
far, we hear, it's a draw.
A nice old lady, over 50, goes out and
injures herself good and plenty in a quiet
game of football.
And the governor of Texas offers $100
for information leading to conviction of
any bootlegger peddling his produce to a
college student. ^
Now all we need is a classroom murder,
a race riot and a couple of suicide pacts
among the faculty.—Tulane Hullabaloo.

WOMAN
A chemist analyzing that comparatively
unknown element, woman has described
her as follows:
Element: Woman.
Occurrence: Found wherever man ex­ists.
Seldom in free state, with few ex­ceptions
the combined state is to be pre­ferred.
Physical Properties: All colors and
sizes. Usually in disguised condition. Face
covered by a film of composite material.
Backs at nothing and may freeze at any
moment. However, melts when properly
treated. Very bitter if not well used.
Chemical Properties: Very active, pos­sesses
great affinity for gold, silver, plati­num
and precious stones, violent reaction
when left alone. Ability to absorb ex­pensive
food at any time. Undissolved by
liquids, but activity greatly increased
when saturated with a spirit solution.
Sometimes yields to pressure. Turns green
when placed beside a better looking speci­men.
Ages very rapidly. Fresh variety
has great magnetic attraction.
NOTE: Highly explosive where in in­experienced
hands.
Freshman co-eds fall under the general
classification of Woman, so look well, then
run.
* * * * *
QUITE A RECORD
At the football game Saturday with
Richmond, of the entire faculty of V. M.
I., only four members were absent from
the game. This classification includes pro­fessors,
D. O. L. officers and the surgeon.
Of the four absent members one at least
was known to be out of town.
This attendance seems very remarkable,
considering the number of professors and
officers. It is evident proof that the
"Spirit" is present as much in the faculty
as in the corps.
It is very doubtful that any other school
in the country can boast of such interest
of the faculty in cadet athletics.

HERE'S HOW
During the college year 1927-28, a half
billion dollars flowed into the tills of col­leges
and universities in the United States,
according to the reports of 1,071 institu­tions
reporting to the United States office
of education.
One-fourth of this came from the tuition
and fees of undergraduate and graduate
students; 23 per cent was appropriated
by state and city governments; 13 per
cent was given through private benefac­tions;
12 per cent was income from endow­ments;
10 per cent was gross income from
board and room charges, and 12 per cent
was obtained from other sources. Three
and four-tenths per cent was contributed
by the United States government.

EDITOR'S NOTE: The opinions expressed in
this column are not necessarily the editorial
opinions of this paper. It is a column of personal
comment, and is not to be read as an expression
of our editorial policy.
THE opening dances will begin soon,
and with the dances come the usual
members of the fair sex to claim our
attention. Most of our thoughts will turn
to them and nothing more. The raptures
of the music and the hilarious crowd will
tend to let us forget for a while.
* * * * *
There will be those girls who are be­ginning
to learn to inhale a cigarette, and
think that is the way to show Auburn men
that they are from the city or that they
have vidently been places before.
* * * * *
Over the campus I have heard boys dis­cussing
restriction on the girls; for in­stance,
signing in and out at the dance
floor and the fraternity houses. It does
seem to me that it is a little hard for one
to digest since coming from home where
our mothers and fathers would allow us
to go and come as we wanted to. It
seems that if our welfare is greater to
them than to any other, then they would
have such restrictions on us at home. Such
students will find it hard to get used to
the Auburn dance regulations.
* * * * *
But one must remember that all stu­dents
are not like that. The ones who are
trusted must come, under the same ruling
as the others. There are those who can­not
be trusted; therefore, it falls hard
on all the rest. Then there are those who
are not used to doing for themselves but
must always have someone set some rules
to follow. There are some who have judg­ment
as to what is the limit and what is
the extreme. They must always be told
what to do.
* * * * *
I would like to see one dance in Auburn
where there would be only one rule, "Act
Intelligently," written in blazing letters
and placed where everyone who attended
the dances might see it.
* * * * *
I do not believe in condemning any cus­tom
or any rule unless there is one that
can take its place, and be made better by
so doing. As long as we have imitators
who do nothing but imitate we will always
be where we are today. Let us always
launch new ideas and back them up. Let
everyone know that Auburn is a growing
concern. How often we all use the same
expression that we have heard someone
use a million times. I would rather say
the expression backwards than let some-think
that I could not originate something
to say myself.
* * * * *
I happen to know personally of one
Fraternity house, on the campus where
the freshmen have not been hit more than
two or.three times. They seem to be get­ting
along fine. This idea of knocking
senses into Freshmen is absurd. It will
either make them cowards or ruin them
outwardly.
* * * * *
Emerson said that fools admire the ex­traordinary,
the wise man admires, the or­dinary.
I have noticed often that boys. I.—
meet are ashamed to say they are from a
small town, or from the farm. They seem"
to think that people will regard them with
less respect. Contrary to this, I admire
the fellow who is honest about where he
is from and proud of it. People are be­coming
accustomed to the fact that when
others say they are from a certain city
they will ask then if you live in town or
out of town. I have always tried to look
like I was from the city. Looking like a
city guy didn't help me once when a young
lady asked me if I lived in town or out
from town. That hurt me bad—bad. She
must not have noticed my large and drag­ging
breeches.
Every person in the United States is on
the average $2.32 poorer than he was a year
ago.

ADVENTURE
The safe roads are sweet roads.
None so well as I
Has loved the sunny hollows
Where peace and safety lie,
But I have heard the wind call
And I have watched the sky.
Known things are dear things.
I have bound my heart
With tiny chains of blessedness
I scarce can break apart,
But I have heard a gull cry
And watched the swallows start.
Oh, I shall go with eager feet,
And follow the wind to the sea,
But why, O god of the gypsy folk
Must I break my heart to be
free?

are sponsoring a joint party to be
given in honor of the new Baptist
students, October 10, at eight o'clock
at the local Baptist Church. The so­cial
committees are endeavoring to
make this a splendid, get-acquainted
affair. Much interest has ben disr
played this year by the old students
and the societies want each student
to "feel at home" in the church. All
Baptist students are cordially invit­ed

Kiley's Friendship
For Wynne Causes
Him to Come Here
By Elmer G. Salter
A man's friendship for another is
the reason that the Alabama Polytech­nic
Institute was so fortunate in get­ting
Roger J. Kiley as end coach for
the 1930 football season.
Chet Wynne, Auburn's head coach,
and Kiley met each other the second
day of their freshman year at Notre
Dame. This started a friendship that
has no bounds.
It was in the Fall of 1918 when Ki­ley
matriculated at the South Bend
institution. He participated in fresh­man
sports, winning recognition in
football, basket ball, and baseball.
A bright future was predicted for
him in athletics after his brilliant
playing his plebe year. He reported
to Knute Rockne in 1919 for his first
varsity team, and was immediately as­signed
to the post at left end which
he held down in brilliant style for
three years. He was selected in Grant-land
Rice's football Hall of Fame his
senior year.
Starring in football was not the only
sport that the Tiger's end coach ex­celled
in during his collegiate career.
He was a regular on the cage team for
three seasons, and for his all-around
brilliancy on the hardwood, his mates
selected him to lead them in 1921. He
was also a star on the baseball team
in 1920 and 1921.
After completing an outstanding
athletic career at Notre Dame in 1921
Kiley returned the following year and
assisted Knute Rockne while also com­pleting
his law course.
Coached at Loyola
Following his braduation with an L.
L. B. in 1922, Kiley was selected as
head coach at Loyola University, Chi­cago.
He was head mentor at Loyola
until 1928 when he gave up coaching
to enter seriously upon the practice
of law.
Kiley was noted for his athletic abil­ity
while at Notre Dame and also for
the high marks that he made in the
classroom. He has always been quite
a reader and a student, even since
his college days.
He passed the Illinois State Bar ex­amination
in 1924 while at Loyola and
also did some practicing while turn­ing
out successful teams there. He
has always had ambitions to become
a successful lawyer, which accounts
for the coaching profession losing a
100 per cent gentleman and excellent
teacher.
Even though he gave up coaching
in 1928, he has always been keenly
interested in football. He assisted
Wynne at Creighton University when
he was conducting spring training
there last year, just because he liked
the game.
President Bradford Knapp scoured
the country for an outstanding coach
last year and finally selected one who
was still young and willing to tackle
hard jobs.
Persuades Kiley to Help
After he received his three-year con­tract
as head coach and athletic di­rector,
Wynne had a task of finding
assistants who were drilled in the in­tricate
Notre Dame system. He fi­nally
persuaded his boon companion
to suspend his extensive legal practice
in-Chicago for the 1930 football sea­son,
so that he would have someone
to help hi m who was a past master
of the Notre Dame style of playing
football. Kiley demonstrates to the
Plainsmen every afternoon on Drake
Field that he is more than a past mas­ter
of teaching Knute Rockne's famous
system.
Since leaving the coaching profes­sion,
Kiley has had several offers to
enter this avocation again, but de­clined.
He was offered the place va­cated
at Creighton by Wynne and has
also turned down an offer from anoth­er
large institution which carried with
it a position that had figures named
Tigers Meet University
of Florida Next Week;
First Conference Game
By Tad McCallum
The fighting 'Gators of the Univer­sity
of Florida will be Auburn's next
opponents as the Tigers embark upon
an ambitious Southern Conference
schedule, meeting Florida, Georgia
Tech, and Georgia on successive Sat­urdays.
All three of these teams have re­ceived
high ratings by the experts,
with Georgia probably heading the
list. Florida was hard hit by gradu­ation,
losing the flashy "Cannonball
Clyde" Crabtree, Captain Rainey Caw-thon,
Alex Reeves, and others who
have gained considerable fame on
southern gridirons. However, capable
reserves and several returning stars
have been molded into a combination
that may wreak havoc in Conference
circles before the season closes.
Coach Bachman was one of the first
to gain pronounced success in the
South with the Rockne system and
as the Tigers are also employing this
brand of football, the clash between
the two elevens will be of additional
interest.
Florida had little trouble in crush­ing
Southern University in her initial
conflict and looked extremely good
in all departments o fthe game. Cap­tain
"Red" Bethea is the ace of the
as a starting salary.
Jack Cannon, all-American guard at
Notre Dame in 1929, was signed as
freshman coach after Kiley had at­tached
his signature to an Auburn
contract, so this gives the Tigers three
former Notre Dame and two former
Auburn stars to coach them during the
1930 season.
Kiley and Cannon probably will be
missing from the coaching corps next
year as the latter wants to study med­icine
at Harvard, but one thing sure
is that Auburn has certainly benefit­ted
from the friendship between Chet
Wynne and Roger Kiley

Injuries Thought Not Bad
Sweetwater, Tenn., Sept. 29—Rob­ert

team of Columbia Military Academy,
died in a hospital Sunday from in­juries
received in a game with Ten­nessee
Military Institute Saturday.
Black was knocked out and had to

Eleven Men Report For
Cross Country Team in
Answer To First Call
By Marshall Caley
After the first two weeks of prac­tice
the prospects of the cross country
team look very good this year. Al­though
Teague and McClendon were
lost by graduation, Roberts Plant and
Pitts from last year's team and Hicks
who was a member of the cross coun­try
team of 1928 are back.
Roberts is in good condition and
much is expected if him this year. Joe
Plant seems to have recuperated from
his appendix operation which kept him
out of track last spring. Huff is look­ing
good. Pitts and Hicks are not in
the best of condition but are improving
rapidly.
All the old men are looking good,
but they had better step, for there are
four sophomores who are trying for
berths on the team. The two McQueen
brothers seem to be keeping pace with
the best. Caley and Murphy, the other
two sophomores, are working hard for
honorable positions. O'Rouke is try­ing
as hard as every this year and
Pope is also trying hard for an upper
berth.
hotel, where his condition became crit­ical
during the night.
An entire class attending a Bap­tist
Sunday school across the street
from the hospital volunteered their
blood for a transfusion, but young
Black died before the blood could be
matched.
Black was cadet major of the stu­dent
battalion and president of the
Student's Council at Columbia Mili­tary
Academy. His parents reside in
Indianapolis, Ind., and were summon­ed,
but failed to arrive until after his
death.—Opelika Daily News.

Showing Excellent
ForminScrimmage
By Elmer G. Salter
Playing probably the best football
that they have displayed this season,
in a game or in a scrimmage, the Au­burn
Tigers ran roughshod over the
freshmen when they were on the of­fense
and limited the rodents to close
to 30 yards when they were carrying
the pigskin in the first rough work
of the week. It was the best showing
that they have made on Drake Field
because they were putting some of
the teachings of Coaches Wynne, Mc-
Faden and Kiley into -use.
Additional fundamental work was
given the squad before the mock bat­tle
with the plebes started. The line­men
were pulling out of the line of
blocking dummies, while four back-fields
alternated in perfecting a pass
defense under Wynne.
Since Sam Mason and Porter Grant
made creditable showings in the first
game of the season, they probably
will be stationed on the terminals in
future games if they continue to show
improvement, but having capable re­serves
on hand to take their places
if they are injured is creating quite
a problem at present. Louis McRee
has been ruled ineligible, at least until
October 18, so this leaves only Cary
Senn, Carl Creel and George Egg on
hand to take the regular places.
Coach Kiley has developed two cap­able
wingmen, but no team can func­tion
sucessfully with only two flank-men,
so the job for Auburn's end
coach really starts now. Kiley is
working on the theory that you can
never tell when Dr. Injury is going
to take a cut at the Tigers.
The varsity started against the
frosh with practically the same elev­en
that opened against Birmingham-
Southern. Mason and Senn were on
the ends; Miller and Taylor, tackles;
Burt and Wood, guards; Harkins,
center; Parker, quarterback; Hatfield
and Hitchcock, halfbacks, and Brown,
fullback. Taylor and Senn were the
ony players who failed to start against
the Panthers.
Donald Jones, Hannis Prim, George
Egg, Robert Arthur, Leo Young, and
Kenneth Phipps were the other play­ers
to see service.
Hatfield, Hitchcock and Brown got
off on several long jaunts when the
varsity was on the offense because
their mates were doing some effective
blocking. No quartet of ball carriers
can make lengthy runs unless thay
have 100 per cent cooperation from the
linemen. This is being taught every
afternoon on Drake Field and it begins
to look like the pigskin toters will
have .aid from their mates in the
future.
(Continued on page 6)
Five Sophomores on
Squad 'Cinch9 Places
Brilliant playing by five sophomores
in Auburn's opening game this sea­son
has practically cinched regular
places for them if they continue to
improve.
Jimmie Hitchcock, Tom Brown, Sam
Mason, Porter Grant and Herbert
Miller are the first-year varsity per­formers
who are expected to ward off
all competition and play as first
strangers.
The reasons for the above players
winning regular berths are easily dis-cernable.
Grant and Mason looked
good on the flanks, especially in go­ing
down on punts; Hitchcock did the
best punting done by an Auburn play­er
since 1923; Tom Brown had very
few chances to carry the ball, but
backed up the line and broke up passes
thrown in his direction in grand style,
and Miller broke through several times
and threw the ball carriers for losses,
even though he is not as vicious as
the coaches would like fo rhim to be.

Les Gage Comments on Changes
Of Football Coaches Last Year
The following is taken from
"Shorts on College Sports" by Les
Gage, appearing in the November is­sue
of College Humor Magazine.
"The Wolves have howled a bit too
viciously, perhaps. Possibly our re­cent
business depression has exerted
a pressure on the athletic budgets.
Whatever the reason, there has been
a very definite migratory movement
among the football coaches since last
fall's campaign. We would even go
so far as to tsate that the turnover
in the coaching profession has reach­ed
a new high in 1930, when many
of our nation's most esteemed in­structors
of the gridiron game have
sought to change the scenery.
"Leading the roving procession are
such familiar figures as Lou Little,
"Doc" Spears, Chet Wynne, Pirn
Phelan, Bob Higgins, Vic Hanson,
Tom Lieb, Wallace Wade, Major
Sasse, Fritz Crisler, Gus Tebell, Tom
mie Mills and Jim Wray. It is un­necessary
to explain why these gent­lemen
have chosen to expound foot­ball
theories on strange fields. Ev­eryone
knows that they are all pro­gressing
toward greater success and
fame in intercollegiate athletics and
have received the call because of past
football prosperity.
"The Middle West lost three of its
most popular football coaches to the
gain of the Pacific Coast when Dr.
Clarece Spears signed a contract
with the University of Oregon, Jim-mie
Phelan deserted his Purdue
champions for the University of
Washington and Tom Lieb resigned
from Knute Rockne's staff to take
the reins at Loyola of Los Angeles.

aide for years, succeeded Spears at
Minnesota with the added responsibi­lities
of the athletic director's posi­tion.
Kiser, one of the leading coach­es
of the Big Ten, was promoted to
take the place of his former employ­er,
Phelan, at Purdue.
"Knute Rockne has scurried about
to supplant a couple of his able staff
members with some of the younger
and more recent disciples of the
famed Notre Dame football system.
Tom Lieb's departure left Rockne
without a line coach. At the same
time Tom Mills, one of the Bald
Eagle's most trusty servants, affix­ed
his signature to a Georgetown
agreement, filling a vacancy caused
by Lou Little's move to Columbia.
"Wallace Wade's regime at the
University of Alabama was sudden­ly
terminated, to the surprise of his
many friends, when the coach of the
Crimson Tide made public his accep­tance
of a new post at Duke Univer­sity.
Gus Tebell, young in expe­rience
but aged in prestige, resigned
at North Carolina State to become
chief of the basketball and baseball
staffs at the University of Virginia,
as well as assistant in football. With
the retirement of Captain "Biff"
Jones, which unfortunately was
slightly eclipsed by the exodus of
Cadet Cagle last spring, another
alumnus of the United States Mili­tary
Academy, Major Sasse became
the director of the varsity gridiron
squad."

Largest World Map
Will Be Completed
Wellesley, Mass.—(IP)—What is
to be the largest map in the world,
to cost more than two million dol­lars,
is under construction here. It
will measure 63 feet from east to
west and 46 feet from north to south.
The map was begun about five
years ago, and is expected to take
50 years more to complete. When
finished it will be a perfect likeness
of the country which makes up the
United States and Canada.
A gallery, 15 feet high, will en­circle
the map, and viewed from this
any section reproduced on the work
will appear just about as it would if
actually seen from an airplane at
a height of 12 miles.
Forum Magazine Asks Students
To Pick 12 Outstanding Dates
College Head Says
Accidents Shaping
Too Many Careers
Yellow Springs, O.— (IP)—Acci­dent
instead of aptitude is shaping
the careers of far too many college
students, according to Dr. Arthur E.
Morgan, president of Antioch Col­lege
here.
"In the practical administration of
our colleges," he said recently, "far
too little attention is paid to the na­ture
and signifance of student inter­ests.
They are commonly looked up
on as being determined by nature
like the color of the eyes."
Do you know who begat whom—
as well as what begat which—and
when and why? If you do, you are
qualified to enter a historical con­test,
offering substantial cash prizes,
announced by the Forum Magazine.
The idea is to pick the twelve most
important events in the history of
the world, give their correct dates,
and tell why they ought to be regard­ed
as the greatest dates in the calen­dar.
As a starter in this contest, the
Forum is publishing three articles in
its September, October, and Novem­ber
issues by Hendrik Willem van
Loon, Will Durant, and H. G. Wells
in which each of these famous out-liners
has listed the twelve dates
which he thinks are the greatest, and
has stated his reasons for think so.
For the three best papers listing the
most important events that van Loon,
Durant, and Wels forgot or overlook­ed,
the Forum will award a first prize
of $250, a second prize of $150, and
a third prize of $100.
Full details about the contest are
printed in each of the Forum issues
mentioned above. The magazine's
announcement says that college stu­dents
with a flair for history are par­ticularly
invited to compete for the
prizes.

A group attack on the "X" of industry
Research, finding answers to the eternal
x = ?, keeps step in the Bell System with
the new industrial viewpoint.
The joy in working out studies in de­velopment
is shared by many. Results are
reached by group effort. Striving to­gether,
the mature engineer and his
younger assistants, each contributes to
the final solution of the problem.
Men of the Bell Telephone Labora­tories
are sharing in useful, interesting
research. They are getting valuable train­ing
in the modern strategy of organization
attack.
And because that strategy assures them
the aid of men and material resources,
they are actually turning some of their
vision into fact.

AUBURN TIGERS NOW
SHOWING EXCELLENT
FORM IN SCRIMMAGE
(Continued from page 4)
The first-year team failed to pene­trate
the varsity line for any notice­able
gains, but it must be taken into
consideration that they did not have
an elusive Joe Bilgere, Murray, Ait-kins
or Lovell in their rear works.
They were also unable to produce
players who play like Owens, Foster,
Schellaci, Stephens, Alexander, Rich­ards
and Feore, Spring Hill linemen,
did against Marion last ween when
Auburn's opponent Saturday scored
71 points and also used substitutes
galore. It is needless to say that they
performed equally as well on the de­fense,
holding Marion scoreless.
While the varsity was working hard
in preparation for Saturday's hard
battle, Coaches Jack Cannon and
Weems Baskin had their rats doing
likewise. The plebes opened their 1930
season at 10 a. m. Saturday morning
against the Birmingham-Southern Ba­by
Panthers.
Competitive Exhibition

building.
Third, fourth, and fifth year de­sign
classes entered the competition,
and the design chosen by the Ala­bama
Chapter of the American In­stitute
of Architects at their Octo­ber
meeting will be awarded a $10.00
prize.
The accepted design will subse­quently
be modeled by the class in
clay modeling, and another prize of
$10.00 will be given for the best
model submitted.
The exhibit will remain on display
