ANTI-PROHIBITION
FORCES WIN FIGHT
IN SENATE, 63-23
Senate Passes Resolution To
Repeal Eighteenth Amendment
Amid Tumult On Floor
SURPRISE MAJORITY
Amendment To Resolution Provides
For Protection Of
States Against Importation
HOUSE TO VOTE MONDAY
Garner Sure Of Passage In Lower
House; Suspend Rules For Vote
On Matter In Monday Session
The United States Senate voted yesterday
to repeal the Eighteenth
Amendment, the tabulation being 63
to 23. Although Congressional leaders
were rather sure that repeal would
pass the upper house, the convincing
majority came as an unforseen surprise.
With remarkable speed the anti-
Prohibitionists shattered the dry lines
to ribbons with a vote that was five
more than the necessary two-thirds.
The Senate repeal resolution provides
for submission to state conventions
for ratification rather than to
the state legislatures. An amendment
to the measure provided further
for the protection of dry states from
illegal liquor importations.
In the House, Speaker Garner promised
action Monday when Anti-Prohibitionists
will call for a suspension
of the rules so that the bill may be
taken up. He forecast approval of
the measure which differs only on the
point of protection for the dry states
from that which failed by only six
votes in the House the first day of
the present session.
Democratic leaders have called a
caucus for tomorrow to whip the par-ty.'
s members in line and bind them
to vote for the measure. Representative
Snell has promised that 100
Republican votes will be ready to support
the resolution and if the Democratic
caucus achieves its purpose passage
is virtually assured.
The surprisingly big majority for
the resolution was announced in the
Senate by Vice President Curtis amid
much confusion and it required him
five minutes to restore order in the
usually dignified body. Many House
members had come into the Senate
chamber to listen to the debate and
they were completely amazed at the
decision. Hundreds of spectators who
had jammed the galleries filed out
speechless.
The House rejected a flat repeal
proposal Dec. 5 by a vote of 272 for
and 144 against, but, with the dry
state protection clause in the new resolution,
House leaders predicted that
many dry Congressmen would swing
over and vote with the wets.
Several amendments and substitutes
to the resolution were howled down
by a vive voce vote or by rejected
roll calls before the Senate took final
action. One of these, rejected 46 to
38, was a substitute by Senator Carter
Glass (D), Virginia, which would
have banned the saloon and given Congress
concurrent power with the states
to enfore this ban.
In predicting passage in its original
form, Snell said, "There is no doubt
the Senate repeal resolution will pass.
I am going to vote for it myself. It
is as near the Republican platform
as we will get. It contains one-half
of the Republican platform, the only
thing different being that it does not
prevent the return of the saloon.. You
can't define a saloon anyway."
Letters Will Be Presented ,
Polo, Ride, Pistol Teams
Letters will be presented to
those men who have won the
awards in polo, rifle and pistol
on Bullard Field at the regular

SALARY REDUCTION

BY HOUSE 91 TO 3
POST OFFICE DESIGN
HIGHLY RECOGNIZED
Fourth Place Given Auburn
Plans At Association Of Federal
Architects At Capitol
WELLBORN DESIGNER
Building Is Of Semi-Colonial
Style; To Cost $ 9 0 , 0 0 0 When
Completed Next Summer
In competition with drawings of all
government buildings undertaken during
the past year, the design of the
Auburn post office this week won
high recognition at the Association of
Federal Architects exhibit in Washington.
Fourth place was given 'the Auburn
design with only the post office buildings
of Lawrenceville, 111., Providence,
Mass., and Peru, 111., receiving higher
rank.
The Auburn building was designed
by Sidney N. Wellborn of the Auburn
class of 1913, now with the office
of the Supervising Architect in
Washington. The building is to be
of semi-colonial type and will cost approximately
$90,000 when completed
next summer.
Designs of some 300 government
buildings were entered in the competition.
The work of architects in all
government divisions was represented,
including hospitals and army and
navy buildings. The exhibit was held
in the patio of the Agricultural Building,
Feb. 11-12, sponsored by the Corcoran
Galleries and the National Gallery
of Art.
"This is further evidence that Auburn
is to have one of the best designed
post office buildings in the
country," said Major H. G. 'Little,
supervising engineer in charge of construction.
Major Little added that construction
of the building was well ahead of
schedule and the pourings of slabs for
the workroom ceiling were now being
made. Practically all brick work is
complete and an expert wall finisher
in on the job "pointing up" all crevices
between brick and stone.
Upon applying a 48-hour load test
to the main floor, Major Little found
that absolutely no deflection occurred
under a pressure of 15 tons, or 250
pounds per square foot. An area of
120 square feet was tested. Partition
work and terra cotta linings for the
outer walls will be completed within
a few days.
Post Master L. A. Knapp said that
appropriation by Congress of the
$4,200 additional for marble wains-coating
in the lobby had been "held
up" under the new economy measure
but that Senator Black and Representative
Steagall and Hugh Grant were
still working for the provision in
Washington. Marble instead of oak
finishings for the lobby are highly
necessary, he said, because of the
severe use to be made of this portion
of the building by the large college
student body served by the post office.
Auburn citizens have*expressed great
interest in the marble finishings, he
said.

Bill Provides For Sliding Scale
Of Salary Reduction From
25 To 5 Per Cent
ON 1933 SALARY BASIS
Senate Defeats Walker Amend
ment To Appropriation Bill
By Convincing Majority
TEXTBOOK BILL UP
Threats of "Negro Domination'
Heard From Black Belt Legislators;
Negro Vote Threatened
The first of the important economy
bills before the present extra session
of the Legislature passed when the
House adopted the amended Tunstall
bill by a 91 to 3 vote. This bill provides
for a sliding scale of salary reductions
ranging from 25 to 5 per cent
on salaries paid January 1, 1933.
The scale provides for a 25 per cent
cut of all salaries amounting to $4,000
per year or more, a 15 per cent slash
on salaries from $3,000 to $4,000, a
ten per cent cut on salaries ranging
from $1,500 to $3,000 and 5 per cent
on salaries below $1,500 with the provision
that no salaries of $65 per
m<?nth or less shall be reduced.
The Walker amendment to reapportion
the $4,000,000 public school fund
so that the northern counties of the
state would receive more money was
defeated in the Senate by a 17 to 16
vote. The threat of "negro domination"
was heard from the black belt
when Sen. Charles McDowell, of Barbour,
declared "If you crowd us we'll
register the negroes and we know
how to vote them".
A bill providing for the printing of
school textbooks by the state convicts
was introduced into the House Thursday
by Representative Glover of Henry.
The measure also provides that
all state printing be handled by the
convict printing plant. Funds are to
be set aside for the printing and paid
to a supervisory board of five members
who will handle the affairs of
the printing establishment. Under
the provisiqns of the bill the convict
printing plant may contract with
counties and cities for all legal printing.
The plant would be established
as soon as there is sufficient money
in the state treasury, in the opinion
of the governor.
The Carmichael bill to allow cities
and counties to connect municipality
owned light plants with Muscle Shoals
has been referred by the house civil
laws committee from that body to a
sub-committee of five members. Representative
Carmichael claimed that
his bill was designed to enable Alabama
to take advantage of the proposed
development of the Shoals area
outlined by President-elect Roosevelt
on his recent visit to the state. •
The House judiciary committee has
voted ot report the Teasley Bill out,
with the recommendation that it not
be passed. The House sub-committee
was unable to write an amendment
satisfactory to both Rep. Chauncey
Sparks and to Senator Teasley several
amendments embodying changes
suggested in the committee will be
offered on the floor of the House.
As a result of the attempted assas-ination
of President-elect Roosevelt,
Representative Lovelace, of Tallapoosa,
introduced a bill into the House
Thursday providing the death penalty
for such a crime in Alabama. The
measure fixes the minimum penalty
at twenty years hard labor and places
the responsibility for sentences on the
trial juries. •
The House bloc members have perfected
their organization and program
and shortly plan to have all their
measures in the House. The bloc proposes
a thirteen point plan which includes
such bills as the Sparks amendment
to permit the Legislature to
reduce salaries of constitutional af-f
icers during current terms; the Goode
constitutional amandment for issuing
interest bearing warrants for the retirement
of the floating debt; the
McGowin bill reducing per diem expenses
of state employees to a maximum
of $2.80 a day.

As it has been impossible for any
other college activity to assist in financing
polo this year, it is necessary
that all polo activities be self-supporting.
In order that the expense
of operating the sport may be met,
and that expense to individual members
of the squad may be reduced, in
the purchase of equipment, in financing
trips, and in entertaining visiting
teams, an admission fee must be
charged for all games played at Auburn.
To this end it is deeply regretted
that it will not be possible
to accept student athletic tickets for
admission to these games. Season
tickets will be sold to students for
one dollar. General season tickets
for others than students will be sold
for one dollar and a half.
These tickets will admit the holder
to all eight campus games and, in
addition, to the Gymkhana which will
be held by the Ladies' Riding Class
and the Polo Team about the first of
April. Tickets will be placed on sale
through members of the Ladies' Riding
Class and the Polo squad by February
26.

School At 7 P. M.
Dr. Stuart Graves, Dean of the
University of Alabama Medical
School, will address Auburn pre-med-ical
students here this evening at
seven p. m. in the auditorium of Ross
Chemical Laboratory. Dr. Graves'
visit was originally planned for last
Friday, but was postponed due to
conflicting engagements.
The subject of the talk will deal
with entrance requirements in the
Medical School at Alabama, and the
course in general as offered there.
The speaker was especially invited to
make this talk since so many pre-meds
here go to Alabama to complete
their training. He also spoke on the
same subject here last Spring.
Dr. Graves, in addition to being
Dean of the Medical School, is Professor
of Pathology, a subject in
which he is recognized as an authority.
He holds an M. D. and also an A.
B. degree from Syracuse University;
the former being awarded him in
1911 and the latter in 1923. He
served as acting health officer of the
State of Alabama during a year's
time in 1929-1930, and was Councillor
for Kentucky during the years of
1926-1928. In addition he is a member
of various national and international
societies including the American
Association of Pathology and
Bacteriology, American Association
of Cancer Research, and the International
Association of Medical Museums.
Although the lecture tonight will
be of primary importance to pre-meds,
the public is cordially invited
to be present.

POOR SPORTSMANSHIP
During the last few basketball games
which have been played here, there has
been in evidence an increasingly large
amount of booing and whistling when it appeared
that the referee's decision was
against the Auburn team. This practice is
one of the most striking examples of poor
sportsmanship possible, and a practice
which has been heretofore almost taboo
among students of this institution.
Of course, outsiders can not be restrained
from voicing their feelings, but in a crowd
composed largely of students, no disorderly
conduct of this nature should exist.
In the past Auburn has enjoyed a most
favorable reputation for the quality of
sportsmanship which has been exemplified
in all inter-collegiate games, and especially
in football. Often have the faculty and
student body been complimented on
the attitude of the students during football
games in the l i m e when the Plainsmen
were near the bottom of the conference. It
seems only fair that the students should
continue their good sportsmanship during
this time, when obviously the -basketball
team is in a slump.
It is exceedingly hard for one man who
is refereeing a basketball game t watch
every action on the part of every player,
and only natural that an occasional play
may be miscalled. It is also exceedingly
easy for the spectator to misjudge the
movements of one particular player and
think thsft there is a foul committed when
there is none. These things should be automatically
taken into consideration before
one howls at the referee and denounces him
to adjoining spectators.
Whatever the conditions, students here
are the hosts of all visiting teams and they
should conduct themselves accordingly,
especially since in the majority of games,
the referee is an Auburn graduate.
leaders will fight the inflation mania to a
finish. History has proved that experiments
in irredeemable currency end in chaos; we
have had enough unpleasant chapters already.
REPEAL
The United States Senate voted yesterday
sixty-three to twenty-three to erase the
Eighteenth Amendment from the Constitution;
and it is likely that the House of
Representatives will take similar action
Monday. We are now assured of the passage
of naked repeal in both houses of
Congress. But it is doubtful that the necessary
majority of the States will take
similar action, although the convention
method will probably be used.
Prohibition, is soon to become relegated
into the limbo of dead issues, and with its
death may come a restoration of law and
order. The last thirteen years have proved
that one ian legislate morality; but that
no one can specify and enforce individual
virtue.
SHADES OF BRYAN
The Senate Chamber has again echoed
with oratorical rhetoric from the inflationists.
Had William Jennings Bryan lived
to hear his old free silver arguments restated
he would no doubt have raised the
cry of "I told you so!"
But it is an historical fact that talk of
inflation always bobs up after three or four
years of financial depression. The greatest
efforts of the free-silverites was exerted in
1896, the year which marked the close of
the panic of 1893.
Inflation agitation has taken various
forms, from the worthless paper money of
the Populist party to Bryan's "free and
unlimited coinage of silver."
The chief argument of the inflationists
has been that the gold standard had broken
down. Despondency over the financial situation
has often led level-headed people to
support inflation, whereas they would not
do so during normal times.
An inflation experiment is always a shot
in the dark; let the Bland-Allison Silver
Purchase Act (1890) and the post helium
inflation plan in Germany witness. Inflation
propaganda has always been accompanied
by increased business depression,
whereas strong opposition thereto has had
a stabilizing influence. History will prove'
this. Six months after the defeat of Bryan
in 1896 business activity began to assume a
normal trend. It is true that inflation experiments
are followed by a sudden flash
of commercial activity, an activity that soon
ends in multiplied financial distress.
It is to be hoped that the Democratic
AN INTERESTINGJPARALLEL
Peculiar to periods of depression and
chaos is the fact that self-appointed assassins
attempt to murder governmental leaders.
President-Elect Roosevelt's near assassination
recalls similar events in the past
which were, no doubt, instigated by the upheaval
of those periods. >
The first assassination of a President of
the United States was that of Abraham
Lincoln on April 14, 1865. A half-crazed
member of a theatre audience thought to
solve the- country's post-Civil War problems
by murdering the man who was best
fitted to carry the burdens of Reconstruction.
Climaxing the Panic of 1879, Garfield's
death by disappointed office seekers
in 1881 shows that this event was a hang
over from more revolutionary days. William
McKinley's death by an assassin's bullet
is significant in that it occurred during
the post-bellum unrest of 1901, following
the Spanish-American War. Perhaps the
event most closely akin to yesterday's, is
the attemtped assassination of Theodore
Roosevelt in 1912. He was shot at while
making a Progressive speech and escaped
death only because of a manuscript which
he was carrying in his breast pocket. Political
and financial conditions at this time
were similar to those of today.
It is a significant fact that periods of
national crisis are accompanied by outbursts
of'crazed radicalism in the form of
assassinations of public men.
AN AUBURN FALLACY
Students at technical schools like Auburn
often lose sight of the fact that a
knowledge of some particular branch of
learning does not constitute a thorough
education. A generation ago, the primary
purpose of the colleges and universities was
to give one a cultural background, rather
than to train one completely in any one
subject. Many subjects were touched upon
in the college course, but few were mastered
completely. Today, however, specialization
is the rule. Due to the increasing demand
for highly trained workers, in science
and engineering especially, a technical
course prepares the student admirably to
cope with the problems that arise in his own
field of work, but neglects almost completely
the cultural side of his life.
The usual argument of the engineering
student when he :s upbraided for his lack
of knowledge of ron-technical subjects is
that such things as languages, philosophy,
and literature will not help him earn his
daily bread. Moreover, he says, it would
be impossible for him to master his technical
studies 'c time were deleted from his
course for the study of less practical matters.
It is true that there is little place in a
twenty-hour engineering course for the
sandwiching in of any of the so-called cultural
subjects. The result is that the student
graduates from college woefully ignorant
of anything but engineering. He may
be a good engineer, but in all probability
he knows little of Goethe or Macaulay. College
has failed to broaden him in his outlook
on the less material things of life.
Unless he corrects the fault himself, he
goes through life a good engineer, but a
narrow man:
The remedy for such a situation is for
the student to recognize while he is still in
college that his cultural training is deficient,
and that only by his own endeavors
can he overcome the deficiency. The reading
of good books and magazines, the exchange
of ideas with men of intelligence,
and an occasional few moments devoted to
actual thinking and reasoning will go far
towards producig a cultured engineer.
NEWER TELEPHOTOGRAPHY
The latest production of the German,
British, and American communication companies
is an extension of telephotography to
the point where telegrams may be sent in
facsimile form. Since 1931 the International
Telephone and Telegraph Company has
applied telephotography in 'experimentally
sending' facsimile telegrams at a speed of
1,500 words a minute. Sheets of regular
size are slipped one after another over a
half cylinder and completely scanned by a
beam of light in one minute. The message
reappears at the other end of the line exactly
as it was sent, with blots and handwriting
characteristics reproduced.
However, the old dot and dash system
will still remain, as it will be used in instances
where tremendous speed is not necessary.
It may even be that such highspeed
telegraph systems as that of Pollak
and Virag, which could transmit 100,000
words an hour and which never had a com-mercial
chance because they would remain
idle most of the time will be adopted. It is
possible that the newer telephotography
will aid materially in reducing the rates of
ordinary telegrams.
Amazing progress has been made in the
field of communication since the days of
Morse, Marconi, and Bell. Each year finds
more and more efficient devices that make
towards maximum speed and accuracy in
the science. What the future holds for
communications is too unbelievable to be
foreseen; thousands of inventions are already
worked out but are not placed in use
because more obsolete devices are more commercially
worthwhile.
THESE ANONYMOUS LETTERS
Another letter was added to our pile of
unsigned contributions yesterday. Evidently
certain members of the student body
have thoughts which they think are worth
printing, but few want to take responsibility
for them. It would be poor newspaper
ethics for us to attempt such responsibility.
We are perfectly willing.to place
any nom-de-plume under any letter that is
not pornographic. However, we must know
the identity of the author. If those persons
who have contributed letters unsigned will
see the editor and reveal their identities
we shall be glad to publish these contributions.
TRANQUIL SOUTHERNERS
An editorial writer in Sunday's Neiv
York Times remarked that the Southern
farmer- was still hopeful, planting another
large cotton crop. We often wonder
whether the farmer suffers more than the
Eastern broker when commodity prices
sink. The utter despair, the frenzied riots
of Eastern cities are rarely found in a
Southern cotton field. The farmers may be
lazy, and to a certain extent illiterate, yet
they seem to know better than anyone else
how to "take it on the chin".
ECONOMY AT LAST
The passage of the. amended Tunstall bill
in the lower house of the legislature
marked the first effort of the solons in this
session towards rigid economy. This measure
provides for a sliding scale of salary reduction
ranging from twenty-five to five
percent on salaries paid January 1, 1933.
It is heartening to learn that the Legislature
has really set itself to effect 'economy,
making that economy begin at home.
The vote of the people on November 8
proved convincingly that no new revenue
measures will be possible until all state expenses
are reduced to a minimum. It is to
be hoped that the Senate will see fit to
ratify similar economies; the only certain
way back to financial stability for the
State government lies in the wholesale reduction
of the cost of operation.
TRAINING THE RESERVE
Restoration by the Senate in Washington
of the appropriation of $500,000 to provide
for training courses for the members of
the reserve officers' training corps is evidence
that the upper House still realizes the
need for reasonable military preparedness.
Those responsible for continuing this appropriation
are to be commended.
There are numerous points at which the
Federal Government can wield its economy
ax without depriving the people of any
necessary service or advantage. It can not
unduly reduce preparations for defense
without jeopardizing the safety of the country.
It is particularly important that adequate
provision be made for training the reserve
forces, because our regular army is
such a small affair that in any emergency
of consequence, the reserve forces would
have to be called upon immediately. The
regular forces could only hope to be a nucleus
around which the greater force would
be organized. The real defense of the
United States lies in its reserve forces.
And in these reserve forces the vreserve
officers occupy a strategic position. They
would be commanded to train the troops
that would be mobilized should the nation
be plunged into a war, and to take places
of leadership in the combat lines. It is
perilous to neglect proper training of the
reserve officers. For the sake of fairness
to the officers themselves, too, they are entitled
to periods of training, so that they
may keep abreast of developments in military
practice, and be prepared to render
capable service if they should be called.
There is a distinction between militarism
arid military preparedness. Thoughtful
Americans know where the line is drawn,
and Congress should know.—Houston Post.
Perhaps Japan needs the Great Wall for
her defense.—Cincinnati Times-Star.

Dear Mr. Editor:
This is just an extract from the "Saturday Evening Post," which may appeal,
(or not) to the sense of humor of Mr. "Just A. Rat".
Last week's issue of the Post contained a story which ran about this way:
It happened in an Alabama court.
A big, fat negro woman enters the court room,
with six small children clinging to her skirts.
Says the judge: "Where is your husband?"
"He been dead ten years, Massa Judge."
"Whose children are those?" asked the judge.
"Dey's mine."
"I thought you told me your husband was dead."
"He is dead, Judge, but Ah ain't."

CONTEMPORARY THOUGHT
HOW ©ID LIFE BEGIN?
Although he is convinced that he has discovered
bacteria j n meteorites that have
rained on us from otuer space, Professor
Lipman makes short shrift of the hypothesis
that the earth was colonized by primitive
organisms from other worlds. The
question of the origin of life is not thus
answered. Probably biochemists will agree
with him that we must seek the beginning
of life on the earth itself.
A half century ago life was a purely
chemical manifestation of matter. Now it
is studied as a "physico-chemical system",
meaning that internal and external forces
enable a cell to adapt itself to its environment.
Although he would be the last to
revive the abandoned view that life can be
compounded like a drug-store prescription,
Professor F. G. Donnan, one of the leading
organic chemists of our time, boldly hails
the day "when the physcist will be able to
create life", and sees no season "why life
on a physico-chemical" basis should not be
constructed by the "creation of living cells."
Unfortunately for such predictions, it
would not be easy to identify life in its
lowest synthetic forms. Is motion the test?
Under the microscope patently lifeless particles
move about with deceptive spontaneity
as the result of the physical forces to which
they are subjected. Digestion? A drop of
chloroform will wrap itself around a glass
particle coated with shellac, digest the shellac
and reject the glass particle. A living
amoeba can do no more. Growth? Crystals
can be made to sprout like plants in solutions.
Even the process of self-division can
be mjmicked. As he thus runs through the
gamut of supposedly exclusive attributes
of living forms, the biochemist finds them
all in "dead" matter. Herbert Spencer
thought he' had evaded the difficulty by
ponderously defining life as "the continuous
adjustment of internal relations to external
relations." This also turns out to be a fine,
philosophic description of the electric refrigerator
in the kitchen.
Because of the difficulty of recognizing
life in its smplest forms, we find Professor
Lipman restating the old belief that there
must have been an unbroken series of evolving
organisms from lifeless matter to protoplasm.
Evolution is still at work. Nature
must therefore be even now creating life
and causing it to evolve into Beethovens
and Einsteins. No doubt there are transitional
forms between inanimate proteins
and living protoplasm. Hence it may be
easier to synthesize near-life than to recognize
it in the slime of a pool. Hand in hand
with Frankensteinian attempts at synthesizing
living cells must go a profounder
study of nature—the quest of something
which seems animate but which cannot be
wholly accepted as life. Even if a transitional
form were discovered or created, we
would not be sure of it until we had subjected
it to the test of evolution. Nature
works with infinite time. Must we wait a
few hundred years to see a bit of slime become
what we think is living protoplasm
and then a few thousand more to see the
protoplasm evolve a coral or a sponge? The
prospect is appalling. But there seems to
be no other way of testing our fragment of
transitional pond or test-tube slime and deciding
that at last we have made nature reveal
how life began on the earth.

THE PIPER MUST BE SATISFIED
The current depression has brought many
disastrous consequences, many catastrophes
from which it will take the country and
the world more than a half a century to recover.
Yet even in so dark' a cloud there
hovers near the rim faint inkling of a silver
cloud. The depression has disillusioned
America; and economists tell us that had it
not been for our illusions in 1925, 1933
would not have found us in such a predicament.
Disillusionment, it seems, is necessary
to progress, for only in that way do
we wipe away the haze and see matters as
they really are.
The American people are just beginning,
among their other disillusionments, to realize
the extent of the corruption and undermining
of public figures. The enormous
number of bank failures and the startling
revelations of the swindlings of some of
the officials which have been exposed during
the past year and a half over the entire
country have opened the eyes of the
general public.
Among the most startling instances is included
that of Samuel Insull, now residing
comfortably and contentedly in Greece. But
a case more closely home is that of Colonel
Luke Lea and his son who swindled an
Asheville bank out of $1,300,000. There is
little doubt as to their guilt, for not only
has it been proved in open court' but the
Leas have admitted taking the money. They
were tried and convicted at Asheville in
1931, the Colonel sentenced to ten years
and the son from two to six years. Yet by
some manner which to the "uninitiated has
remained a mystery, they have so far managed
to escape the tenacles of the law. For
a year and a half, by every legality possible,
they have staved.off the reckoning of
justice. . . v
Now the crisis is approaching. If the
'Leas are permitted to escape punishment
for what they have done, such a conditio^
will constitute an indictment against the
American courts of law. Legal conditions
and judiciary discrimination have been
muchly condemned during the past half decade,
and the Leas, if allowed to wiggle out
of paying the piper, will leave an even
deeper hlotcr-Daily Tarheel.

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.
ISHOULD have never been given this
jig-saw puzzle to play with. Some night
I shall be found in the bath room playing
with the tile on the floor. How sad.
I'll put this thing on the table here and
hope for the best. I rather like to think
that it will be a yellow-haired girl picking
daisies, or a red-headed girl. If* its going
to be a plain picture I won't play.
Oh, and yonder's a duck, well he's shaped
like a duck, and he will probably fit along
side the west side of that rabbit I saw
over there on the edge of the table awhile
back, before I went looking for some yellow
pieces to try to make a yellow-haired picture
out of this puzzle. The duck doesn't
want to fit. Maybe it's a proud duck, ^and
like me doesn't like to play with fire or rabbits.
I'll bet that duck wants to go swimming
around with that blue piece I saw, but
that blue piece may be the background for
a cloud, which I think would look nice in
this picture, and so tha* duck will have to
wait to be fitted in; I shall go try to find
this rabbit a place to fit.
The rabbit doesn't fit. Who gave me
this puzzle? To think that I should be
playing with rabbits and ducks. Perhaps
I am angry because there are no wooly
white lambs. Yes, perhaps. Maybe I'm
mad because my antenna is down and I
can't get Jan Garber loud enough. And
I'll bet that pretty little cross up there
won't fit in either.
I have assumed this picture to be a girl
with canary hair, or candy hair will do,
and since its a girl I had better find a dress
to put on her while I leave the duck-rabbit.
I'd rather put a dress on the girl than play
with duck-rabbits anyway. Maybe this girl
has on a green dress. There are a few
green pieces here, not many, but not many
will do because girls don't wear much on
them no how. They don't wear much, and
then they yell because it's cold. Funny
people, girls.
Now the dress is on her. I feel like a
French maid and if a mouse should come
in the room I'd lift a soft little wavering
scream. I wish this girl had a hat, I'd put
that on her too. This lady's maid stuff is
fun. Have you a little doll I may dress
sometime?
I bet you'd laugh if you could see this
duck-rabbit now. This duck-rabbit has
turned out to be a dog the lady is leading.
And that funny shaped piece over there is
part of the dog too. Now look at the dog.
He's a nice dog. I wish he would bite
someone I know.
I think I'll go listen to Guy Lombardo
and try to decide whether this blue I have
been seeing for the last hour is the sky in
this puzzle, or a daze I have before my
eyes. Two to one it's a nice daze.
Now to add to my trouble, this Carmen
Lombardo has me reciting, "Sally Sat In
the Sand", just because he sang, "Two
Buck Tim From Timbuctoo". I now return
to my whirl-girl, my picture girl, and
with no doubt in my mind what the blue
element is. I am distraught. I feel like a
cow in a dipping vat. Ever see one? Come
down some time and let's play dipping vat.
That is, if you want to. You see, you rush
in one end and try to swim across before
all the bugs get off you. It's hard to do.
A pig is much funnier in a dipping vat.
You must see one some time. You must
understand I'm not thinking all of you are
pigs, only some of you. And a girl I know
is reducing.
Perhaps you think I'm not going to finish
this puzzle. Well, I admit it's not much
fun anymore since I put the dress on the
girl, but I might try to build up another
dog, and have a dog fight between him and
the lady's dog. I bet that lady could say
"Damn" in a sweet way. Notice how someone
curses sometiirie, someone who never
indulges, and notice how sweet it sounds.
Just like a curly-haired kid eating peppermint
candy; it's so nice.
While you were waiting for the dog fight,
or the kid to give you some candy, I have
put the bottom on this thing, and I find
the lady walking in flowers. And I thought
those bright flowers were the constant spots
before my eyes. You see, everything I
think isn't so always correct. I'll bet that
tickles you, doesn't it? Well, if you will
keep quiet I'll move my foots so I can see
to do the top of this, my whirl-girl puzzle.
I thought so, that donkey shaped piece I
have been wondering about is part of the
sky. He's a blue donkey, you know, and a
rather promising one too; he promises to
make a pretty sky so my whirl-girl will
have some nice clouds and sunshine.
Now the alluring little puzzle is all fixed.
There is the girl walking with her dog.
There is a lake to her right, and a sea of
October clouds over her (thanks to the
mule's friend). And those flowers she is
walking in are also rather nice.
You must come see my whirl-girl, and
have a flower.

Tiger Growls
Auburn is noted throughout the
South for her school spirit. During
the lean years of athletic championships,
that Auburn spirit rose higher
than ever. As a result the name of
Auburn was mentioned . wherever
. school spirit was discussed.
The students of Auburn were rewarded
for their patience with a
championship football team last fall.
But the reaction was too great. Toward
the end of the gridiron season,
there was a noticeable decrease in
attendance at the games on the part
of the student body. And yet, when
the Tigers were tied by South Carolina
in the last game in Birmingham,
no spark could be found of that once
famous Auburn spirit. Everyone
seemed to take the position that the
players had simply gone back on the
institution.
Auburn has a basketball team this
year. That team has lost six conference
games out of eight played.
Four of these were dropped by one-point
margins. Yet the student body
howls. When they go to the games
here on the campus, they boo the
referee, they yell funny remarks at
the players,.,and otherwise shine before
the visitors. Those present at
the Auburn-Tech game last Wednesday
night could not help but see a
great change in that thing which we
arei n the habit of calling the famous
Auburn Spirit. Many more occur-

Georgia Tech's Yellow Jackes defeated
Auburn's Plainsmen here Wednesday
by a 29 to 20 score. It marked
the fifth Southeastern Conference victory
for the Engineers in ten games,
while it was the sixth loss of the Tigers
in eight games.
Gooding, sharpshooting forward,
and Poole, keen-eyed guard, for the
visitors, each tallied eight points to
lead the scoring for the night. Sam
Mason, Tiger forward, was high point
.man for the locals with six digits.
Tech took an early lead when Wood-all
and Orr sairk a field goal a piece
before Red Jenkins broke the ice for
the Tigers with a shot from beneath
the basket. Tech continued to pile up
points, however, and with Poole, Gooding,
and Slocum alternating, ran the
score to 16 to 7 at the half.
The Tigers came back after intermission
when Sam Mason scored a
field goal and foul shot to run Auburn's
total to 10, after Gooding had
sunk a snowbird soon after the second
half began. Poole and Orr retaliated
with four points to run the
score to 20 to 10. Mason made good
a foul throw, but Orr, Gooding, and
Poole came back with five more to
make it 25 to 11. Jenkins popped a
two pointer, but Slocum followed to
keep the same margin. McMahan
sank a field goal to run the score to
27 to 15. Poole made it 29 to 15, but
the Tigers pulled up with Mason and
Sindler adding four points and Captain
Kaley another as the game ended.

RiRes Make Good
Showing This Week
By Ed Moyer
The Auburn Rifle Team made an
outstanding showing last week, having
accrued 3,625 points. The squad
was defeated by four teams, but defeated
seven in turn.
The Rifles defeated the University
of Ilinois by 31 points the score
being 3,625 to3,594. Rose Polytech-nicnic
Institute was outshot 3,625
to 3,378. Georgetown University
was defeated in a ten man-four po-
The expert marksmanship and aggressiveness
of Woodrow Barnes,
erstwhile New Site High School luminary,
enabled Auburn's freshmen
hoopsters to win their fourth anfl
fifth successive games at home over
the high school quintets of Langdale
and New Site. The frosh defeated
Langdale 39-24 in the first game of
the doubleheader, and New Site, 22-
17, in-the second contest.
With 17 points against Langdale
and 10 against his former school,
Barnes, who also played a riice floor
game, topped the scorers in both
games.
King, center; Collins, Hamilton and
Plummer, gaurds, and Wyatt, forward,
were other wearers of the
Orange and Blue who performed superbly
in the tilts with the strong
fourth district high school fives. Hamilton
was brilliant on defense.
Leading performers for Langdale
were Rodgers, Marshall and McNees.
Capt. Hubert Claybrook, Coker and
Carter looked the best for New Site.
Fifteen of New Site's 17 points were
scored by this trio.
Both Langdale and New Site will
enter the fourth district tournament
here next Tuesday, Wednesday and
Thursday.
Line-ups and summary:
Auburn (39): Barnes (17)" and
Wyatt (5), forwards; King (5), center;

College lost to the Rifles by
79 points the score reading Auburn
3,625; Lafeyette 3,546. Western
Maryland College was the next to

Auburn's five man team won two
matches last week. The University
of Vermont lost a four position
match by 81 points, the score being
Auburn 1,835, Vermont 1,754. The
team also won a thre position match
from Georgetown by 11 points, the
score was 1,357 to 1,346.
Lt. Bowman said that the score was
one of the highest he has ever seen.
The two points that Washington Uni-vxersity
beat us by also was surprising.
The results of the week of February
4 are still incomplete, however,
the results are as follows: Auburn
3,603; University of California 3,669;
New Hampshire 3,659; Iowa 3,664.

OF TOURNAMENT
Defending Champions Defeat
Delta Sigma Phi Quintet In
Exciting Battle
By scoring eleven points in three
final minutes of play, the Sigma Nu
quintet defeated the Delta Sigma Phi
cage outfit, 25 to 14, Wednesday
night to enter the final round of
Auburn's 1933 Interfraternity basketball
tournament.
Bobby Blake and Haygood Pater-son
led the final minute spurt but it
was the steady shooting of Tad Mc-
Callum which kept the Sigma Nu's
in the running up to that time. Mc-was
high scorer for the night with
seven points.
Sigma Nu jumped off to an early
lead, and was ahead at the half, 9
-to 6. Soon after the intermission,
however, Bill Morrision, forward, and
Lawrence Tabor, center of Delta Sig,
each sank a field goal to put their
team ahead 11 to 10, but McCallum
came back with a beautiful snowbird
to regain the lead. Morrison added
four more points, but Jimmie Hitchcock
came through with three to tie
the score at 14 all.
With three minutes left to play,
Bobby Blake caged a foul throw, then
added a goal from the floor. Hitchcock
sank a crip shot to run the score
to 19 to 14. Little Bill Turk, the
most aggressive man on the floor,
then came through with a sensational
one-handed shot at this point, with
Haygood Paterson following with two
goals from beneath the basket as the
game ended.
Both teams were slow in getting
started, but once oging, displayed a
fine brand of, ball. The going was
close, and it was anybody's game until
the final three minutes.
The Sigma Nu's, who are.defending
champions, meet the winner of the
Alpha Gamma Rho-Sigma Phi Sigma
game tomorrow night at 6:15 for the
championship, of this year's tourna-

Sigma Meet Tonight In Preliminary Tilt; Winner Faces
Sigma Nu Tomorrow Night
The Auburn Plainsmen will close
their current basketball campaign
here this week-end, with the Florida
Alligators. The teams meet tonight
and tomorrow night, in Alumni gymnasium,
both engagements beginning
at 7:30.
Starting at 6:15 p. m. preliminary
games will be played before each
game. Tonight, the semi-final game
of the lower bracket of the interfraternity
basketball tournament, involving
the Alpha Gamma Rho and Sigma
Phi Sigma quintets. The winner will
meet the Sigma Nu five tomorrow
night for the championship.
Florida invades the Plains with
one of the best basketball teams in
the South. Florida has won three out
Of four games with Georgia this year,
split a two-game series with Vander-bilt,
defeated Clemson College twice,
and hold a verdict over the strong
Stetson quintet.
Florida will show several of her
star football players in basketball
uniforms he"re tonight. Cherry,
Hughes, and Shearer are the regulars
on the cage team who have earned
awards in football. The other two
starters are Bradley and Cherry.
The Auburn-Florida series will
mark the end of collegiate basketball
carriers at Auburn for four
Plainsmen. These men include Captain
Charles (Slick) Kaley, one of
the outstanding guards in the South,
Red Jenkins and Sam Mason, forwards;
and Robert Arthur, center.
All except Arthur are regulars. The
rangy Arthur is a valuable member
of the second team. Arthur lives in
Birmingham.
Kaley of Warrior, Jenkins of Columbus,
Ga., and Mason of Tallassee,
probably will receive opening assignments
against the Floridians, ' along
with Gump Ariail, center, and Warren
McMahan, guard. Kaley, Mason
and Jenkins, are main cogs on the
team and each will leave a vacancy
next season will be hard to fill.
Probable line-ups for interfraternity

Sigma Phi Sigma: Ivey and Jackson,
forwards; Sayers, center; Moore
and Pitts, guards.

News Flashes
From Abroad
Spectacle upon spectacle, magnificence
outdoing itself—Cecil B. De-
Mille's "The Sign of the Cross" plays
its local engagement Sunday and Monday
at the t Tiger Theatre and will
t r e a t the audience to a vivid picture
of pagan Rome in all i t s glory. Many
believed, and steadfastly contended,
t h a t the day of the film spectacle
passed with the advent of talking pictures.
It, remained for the master of
the spectacle in the silent days to
prove that sound had only served to
increase the scope and effectiveness
of this type .of entertainment.
Bath of Asses Milk
Here is unfolded the whole pageant
of Rome in the time of Nero—at once
the most dissolute and the most colorful
period in Roman history. Here is
the dramatic contrast' between the
paleces of the patrician Romans and
the humble, hidden abodes of t h e early
Christians—on the one hand the wicked
Empress Poppaea in her luxurious
bath of asses' milk; on the other, the
Christian girl, Mercia, ministering to
the" tortued and hunted among the
people of her faith.
And here, as a climax to the whole
spectacle, is the Circue Maximus, with
its gladiatorial combats, it's wrestling
matches between black men and bears
or crocodiles, its battles between Amazons
and dwarfs, its chariot races,
and its featured event—the feeding of
the Christians to the lions. Here, in
short, is an unforgettable parorama
of an age of blood and licentiousness
and passion and majesty.
Master of Grand Effects
Once more as in the days of "The
Ten Commandments" and "King of
Kings," enormous crowds mill before
the camera, and once more, DeMille
proves himself the undisputed master
of crowd effects. The street scenes
and the scenes laid in t h e Circus Maximus
are masterpieces of mob excitement.

COLORADO SCHOOL OF MINES
Golden, Colo.—The axe has fallen
at the School of Mines and its falling
has lopped off the head of athletic director
of the college, George H. Allen,
who has been head coach for the
last six years. Cause for his dismissal
given by the board of Trustees
of the school was that finances had
made it imperative that a shake-up be
had in the athletic organization of
the college. "Dutch" Clark, present
coach of Colorado College has been
mentioned as a possible successor to
Allen.

UNIVERSITY OF MELBOURNE
Melbourne, Australia.—As a prot
e s t against the adoption by the coeds
of the school of football as one
of their major sports, the men students
of the university have taken
to knitting.
In its cast, too, "The Sign of the
Cross" merits extravagant praise. It
is difficult to imagine a more perfect
Nero than Charles Laughton's. The
manner in which this young Englishman
portrays the cruelty, the lewd
madness of Nero and yet maintains
an absolute semblance of reality, is
little short of miraculous. It is a performance
that will go down on the
screen role of honor.
March's Greatest Role
As the cruel sensualist, Poppaea,
Claudette Colbert is also responsible
for a performance of unusual brilliance.
Elissa Landi rises to new and
unexpected heights of emotional acting
as the Christian, Mercia, and
Fredric March surpasses anything he
has ever done for the screen as the
favorite of Nero's court, Marcus Su-perbus,
whose love for the Christian
girl proves stronger than tradition,
wealth, position or even life.
In the secondary roles a r e I a n Keith
as" a sinister villain, captain of Nero's
guard; Vivian Tobin, charming in her
f i r s t screen role as a gossipy Roman
matron;Ferdinand Gottschalk bringing
his fine talent to the role of a
philosopher; Tommy Conlon as a
Christian boy, and a dancer named
Joyzelle as the courtesan, Ancaria.
Don't miss "The Sign of the Cross"!
I t ' s the f i r s t real spectacle of talking
films and it tops every silent film of
i t s type!
EXPLANATION: The chair's rear
left leg is made of tubing. A hole is bored
in the stage and the chair is placed so
that the tube leg is over it. An assistant
pushes the rope up through the chair leg
under the victim's coat.
ILLUSION: Some member of the audience is politely requested to sit
down on a chair. The magician tells him that his coat seems to be bunched .
up in the back, and offers to correct it. Whereupon he pulls out a big
coil of rope.
IT'S FUN TO BE FOOLED...
IT'S MORE FUN TO KNOW!
Let's look at the cigarette advertising
trick called "Heat
Treatment."
EXPLANATION: All cigarette tobaccos
are treated with heat.
But it is not from "heat treatment"
that a cigarette gets
flavor and mildness.
NO TRICKS IN
Mildness, flavor, throat-ease
—all come from the use of
costly, ripe tobaccos.
It is a fact, well known by leaf
tobacco experts, that Camels
are made from finer, more
expensive tobaccos than any
other popular brand.
KEPT FRESH IN THE
WELDED HUMIDOR PACK
Camels have given more
people more pleasure than
any other cigarette. Smoke
Camels, and enjoy the fine delicate
flavor of cos tlier tobaccos.

Rigid Standards Of
Judging Be Applied
Rigid standards of judging will be
applied to the winning chicks a t the
Second Alabama Baby Chick Show
in Birmingham on February 23-25 at
the Municipal Market when some
2,000 day-old entries will compete for
prizes.
No entry of 25 chicks must weigh
less t h a n two pounds, the chicks must
be vigorous, in perfect condition,
their color and size must be uniform,
and they must live throughout the
show. Failure a t any of these points
will reduce their score when J. A.
Medlock, manager of 'the DeKalb
County farm bureau, and F. H. Orr,
Walker County agent, judge the show
and announce prizes for winners in
the various breeds.
Many poultrymen have so scheduled
their incubations as to hatch chicks
two days before the show in order
t h a t they will arrive in Birmingham
during the first 36 hours after hatching.
It is not necessary for newly
hatched chicks to eat d u r i n g this period,
and consequently may be shipped
to good advantage, it was stated.
Most of the entries will arrive in
Birmingham on Wednesday afternoon
by either prepaid express or parcel
post. Others, however, will reach the
show during the first day, February
23. The show will have its maximum
number of entries on Friday and Saturday.
When the chicks are sold on
Saturday, to defray expenses of the
show, the public will have opportunity
of purchasing some of the highest
quality chicks ever bred in the State.
Poultrymen and manufacturers of
poultry feed and equipment are engaging
individual booths in which to
arrange their exhibits. Ample space
for such booths, in addition to provision
all regular entries of chicks, has
been provided at t h e large show room
in the Municipal Market, 22nd street
and 3rd avenue, north.
RIFLES MAKE GOOD
SHOWING THIS WEEK
(Continued from page 3)

islands. The men on the varsity are
Reynolds, Freret, Sparrow, Brewer,
Casson, Scherer, Dexter, Green, Van
Hoose, Zachry, Robertson, Chandler,
Bradford, Strother, and Copeland.

YOUR HEALTH
By Dr. A. H. Graham
County Health Officer
DIPHTHERIA DEATHS
Since 1925 in Lee County there
have been 160 persons who contracted
Diphtheria. Of this number 120 were
white and 40 colored. Eight white
patients died of the disease and
twelve negroes.
A death from Diphtheria is a
tragedy which should not occur. The
disease is readily cured if the services
of your physician a r e requested early.
The home treatment of practically
all "some throats" often result in
Diphtheria gaining a firm foothold.
After the fourth day of the disease,
it is difficult to cure and many children
die. The remedy is to call your
physician early.
Opportunity Schools
