Nine Events Will Be Held;
Open Jumping With Officers
Participating Feature
The annual R. 0. T. C. horse show
will be given this afternoon at 3 p. m.
with a large number of riders taking
part in the demonstration. Many
events have been planned which in­clude
exhibition riding and jumping
and will give all riding classes an
opportunity to display their skill in
horsemanship. There will be eight
Judges on the field to choose the win­ners
of each event.
The first event will be a sophomore
exhibition ride with fifty-four men
slated to participate. Following this
event will be junior jumping, which
will include five three-foot jumps.
Those juniors in this event include
Wood, Turnipseed, Morris, Martin,
Cooper, Bagley, and Nelson. The third
event will be three gaited riding for
girls including Helen Pranke, Sarah
Hooper, Mary McGehee, Frances Mc-
Gehee, Sylvia Shuptrine, Jane Slack,
Dabney Hare, Prances Ashurst, Mar­tha
North Watson, Virginia Yar-brough,
Elizabeth Fletcher, Martha
Jane Bradford, and Miriam Toulmin,
competing for the prize.
• Other events in the order in which
they come include senior jumping
with McCollum, Chapman, Donivan,
Bowen, Mitchell, Aldredge, Fuller,
Franklin, and Reese; a polo pony
stake race; pair jumping, with a lady
and gentleman jumping together.
The ladies and their partners in this
event are Frances McGehee with Ira
Franklin, Mary McGehee with L. N.
Aldredge, and Helen Franke with
L. B. Donivan. To determine the
best polo pony is the next event fol­lowed
by ladies' jumping, with
Frances McGehee, Mary McGehee,
Dabney Hare, and Helen Franke com­peting.
Other events are a polo pony bend­ing
race and open jumping by Major
Franke, Capt. Gunby, and Lieut
Phelps, making nine jumps, 4% feet
high.
The last event, always an interest­ing
one at a horse show, is the musi­cal
chair in which each man dis­mounts
and dashes for a chair the
minute the music stops. Each time
there is one man eliminated as the
number of chairs is always one less
than the number of men. There will
be fifty-four entrants in this event.
Silver loving cups will be awarded to
the winners of the competitive events.
LIL LIL KILLED WHEN
STRUCK BY LIGHTNING
Lil Lil, thoroughbred mare belong­ing
to the U. S. Army, was instantly
killed last Thursday afternoon when
hit by a bolt of lightning which struck
a telephone pole on Drake Field and
bounded through the open doors of
the stables. Hipustrade, p r i v a te
mount belonging to Captain Gunby,
was knocked down by the bolt and is
still in a serious condition.
Lil was considered one of the best
horses in the stables and was frequent­ly
used by Major Pranke. He rode her
in the Atlanta Horse Show last year
at which time she won first place in
the jumping events and was one of
the three horses on the winning hunt
team. She had also won a number
of other ribbons in various meets.
Major Franke stated that he was
pointing her for the Horse Show this
year and that her death is a severe
blow to the chances of the Auburn
entrants.
Hipustrade is also a prise winner,
and one of the best jumpers in the
stables. He has been showing up ex­ceedingly
well in recent practices, and
he, with Lil, had been regarded as
almost certain winners in the coming
show. Even should he recover from
the severe shock that he received, it
is doubtful that he will be in condi­tion
to enter the show.
Memorial Day Services
To Be Held Tomorrow
Confederate Memorial services
will be observed in Langdon Hall.
at eleven o'clock on the morning
of Thursday, April 26, according
to an announcement recently made

to make arrangements
for the day.
Major G. H. Franke has been
named Marshal for the day, with
Doctor Petrie in charge of the
eleven o'clock program. The pro­gram
includes an invocation by
Rev. Sam B. Hay, a solo, "Mary­land,
My Maryland," sung by Col­lins
Cameron, and a feature ad­dress
by Dr. H. V. Carson. Sar-geant
Moxham will sing, "There
Is No Death," and the benedic­tion
will be given by Rev. Hay.
In the afternoon, at four-thirty,
the Girl and Boy Scouts will dec­orate
the local monument and
soldiers plot. ,

WIN, TIE SCORED
IN POLO MATCHES
Varsity Unable To Hold Early
Lead As Ramblers Defeat
Wimbledon Club
Against a much improved team from
the Wimbledon Club of Mobile, the
varsity polo team and Army Ram­blers
were only able to draw a tie
and a one point Victory, respectively,
in the two matches played here over
the week-end.
The varsity met the Mobile team
Saturday afternoon, and after obtain­ing
an early lead, used a number of
reserves. Auburn went into the final
period with a two point lead but was
unable to stem the determined rush
with which the Mobile team scored
twice to tie the score. Neither team
was able to break the tie in the con­tinuation
of the period after the final
bell. Colonel Thomas, Charles Boy-kin,
and J. G. Burton showed up well
for the visiting team, the latter espe­cially,
for after playing consistently
all through the game, came through
in the final period to score the two
goals that tied tip the match. For the
locals, Justin Morrill played a nice
game at the number one position,
scoring twice in the first period to
give Auburn an early lead. Among
the reserves, in addition to Franklin
and Aldredge, seniors this year,
Strong, Dexter, and Ivey, who are
promising candidates for next year,
played nicely, holding the score even
while they were in the competition.
In Sunday's game the tables were
reversed, Mobile taking a two point
lead in the first period and holding
it until the fourth period when Lieu­tenant
Phelps scored twice to put the
Ramblers in the lead. The score was
again tied in the final chucker by
Boykin but Lieutenant Bowman came
back with a score shortly before the
game ended. Four of the varsity re­serves
who will be back next year
substituted on the officers team and
all showed considerable promise.
The lineup and scores for the var­sity
game were as follows:
Auburn (7)—Morrill 2, Oel John­son
1, W. O. Johnson, and Suydam 1
Substitutions: Fincher, Franklin 1,
Dexter, Aldredge, Ivey 2, and Strong.
Mobile (7)—Spottswood 1, Thomas
1, Boykin 2, Burton 2. Substitutions:
Fleming 1.
In Sunday's game the line up was
for the Ramblers: Phelps 3, Metts,
Franke, Gunby 1. Substitutes: Bow­man
1, Strong, Briggs, Dexter 1, and
Ivey. Total score, 6.
Mobile's line up was slightly chang­ed
with Thomas 1, Boykin 1, Burton
1, and Fleming. Substitutes: Coch­rane,.
Spottswood 1, and Merkle 1.
Total score, 5.

MANY PRESENT AT
NEW ART EXHIBIT
Work Of CWA Employed Ar­chitects
Now On Display In
Architecture Building
A large number viewed the exhibi­tion
now on display in the Library
of the School of Architecture and Al­lied
Arts, here, of the Historic Amer­ican
Buildings Survey, recent C. W.
A. project for unemployed architects,
over the past week-end. This display
features a partial accomplishment by
drawings and photographs of historic
Alabama structures prior to 1860.
Many of the most historic buildings
are included in tjiis exhibition and
the exhibition gives a good cross sec­tion
of Alabama's past history and
which are the only visible signs left
of its unusual history of its early
days. In some sections of the United
States, a large part of the early
American architecture has disappear­ed.
Not so in Alabama. While the
ravages of the War between the States
and occasional fires of individual
homes have destroyed a good many,
on the whole there are hundreds of
these structures still left.
Exhibits of the pioneer days,
structures of the Tennessee Valley
"Gaineswood" at Demopolis, Mont­gomery
and Mobile, also Fort Gaines
on Dauphin Island, are creating par­ticular
interest.
On account of the great interest
shown in the exhibition by the pub­lic,
it will be open both morning and
afternoon, including Saturday after­noon
of this week, and Sunday after­noon,
April 29th.
Visitors are welcome and urged to
avail themselves of this opportunity.

PIANO RECITAL GIVEN
AT PRESIDENT'S HOME
A piano recital was given by Mrs.
A. S. J. Tucker, of Ft. Benning, .Ga.,
one of the outstanding women pianist
of the South, here Sunday evening at
the President's Mansion before an
appreciative audience of 60 townspeo­ple
and members of college faculty.
The recital was arranged by Prof,
and Mrs. Karf Hazel, who along with
others praised the brilliant technique,
beautiful tone, and exquisite interpre­tation
which characterized Mrs.
Tucker's recital. On numerous previ­ous
occasions Mrs. Tucker has given
concerts at Warm Springs and Ft.
Benning, where her interpretation of
the best in piano compositions brought
the unstinted approval of her audi­ences.
She is the former pupil of
Henry Casper, of Washington, D. C.
Following the recital the guests
were tendered a buffet supper with
Mrs. Hazel and Mrs. S. L. Toomer
serving as hostesses. Coffee was pour­ed
at a beautifully appointed table by
Mrs. B. H. Crenshaw and Mrs. W. W.
Hill. Little Misses Winefred Hill
and Margaret Toomer assisted with
the serving.
Among the out-of-town guests were
Major and Mrs. F. A. Hieleman, of
Ft. Benning and little daughter, Mar-jorie.
Mrs. Tucker played four groups of
numbers, as follows: Group I—"Turk­ish
March" from "The Ruins of
Athens," Bjeethoven-Rubenstein; "An-gelus,"
Corelli-Godowsky;'and "Varia­tions
Seriuses," Mendelssohn. Group
II—"Prelude—A Minor,"" "Girl with
Flaxen Hair," and "Reflections in the
Water," Dobussey. Group III—
"Schorzo" and three preludes by
Chopin. Group IV—"Etude r in C
Sharp Minor," by Stornberg; "Little
White Donkey," Ibert; "Irish Tune
from County Derry," Grainger; and
"Hobby on the Green," Melton Rufty.
Debating the question, "Resolved,
That the Powers of the President
Should be Substantially Increased as
a. Settled Policy," two teams from
Auburn clashed with six other varsity
teams at the speech tournament held
in Birmingham last week. The two
men upholding the affrmative for Au­burn
were Otis Spears and J. C. Ivey,
and the two upholding the negative
were J. E. DeVaughn and W. G. Hall.
Although Auburn failed to place in
debating, Prof. Hess, coach of the de­bating
team, stated, "While we didn't
rank among the first three, we did
credntably well, winning the first de­bate
from Alabama." Auburn upheld
the negative in that debate.
Nine colleges were represented in
debating at the tournament, and each
college debated six times. Florida car­ried
off the high honors, winning all
six debates.
Also included in the tournament
were contests between colleges in ora­tory
and extemporaneous speaking.
John Liles represented Auburn in the
oratorical contest, winning fourth
place. W. G. Hall spoke for Auburn
extemporaneously. The University of
Florida won the oratorical contest and
won second place in extemporaneous
speaking.
The first three days of the tourna­ment,
beginning Tuesday, were used
in contests between Southern colleges,
and the remainder of the week in a
meeting of the Southern Association
of the Teachers of Speech. Mr. Hess
was chairman at the Friday afternoon

SUPREME COURT NAMED
TO ACT ON INJUNCTION
Horace Stringfellow, of Montgom­ery;
A. J. Harris, of Decatur; Wil­liam
G. Caffey, of Mobile; William L.
Martin, of Birmingham, and W. O.
Mulkey, of Geneva, have been ap­pointed
by Gov. Miller to serve on the
Special Supreme Court which will act
upon the education fund suit.
Mr. Stringfellow was appointed to
take the place of Judge B. P. Crum,
of Montgomery, who was one of the
original five appointees, but who re­cused
himself from sitting in the case
on account of his law firm's having
been connected with the recent litiga­tion
in the Circuit and Supreme
Courts relating to school funds and
involving some legal problems which
might arise in this case.
With the completion of the round
robin tournament, members of the Au­burn
tennis team are practicing dili­gently
this week for their initial
match of the season Sunday, with the
Fort Benning team at Fort Benning.
Final rankings in the tourney give
George Poole Number 1 position,
Glenn and Cam Mitchell are tied for
Number 2, Claude Pritchett is Num­ber
4, C. W. Hixon is Number 5, Herb
Whittle is Number 6, R. P. Russell
is Number 7, and Charlie Price, Num­ber
8. The first five men on the team
will make the trip to Benning.
Poole's Number 1 ranking was not
unexpected as he has previously dem­onstrated
his superiority on local
courts. Neither were the ratings of
Glenn and Cam Mitchell unexpected
for in the Interfraternity Tourney
last year they won first place. Pritch­ett
is a veteran net enthusiastist at
Auburn, having been instrumental in
returning tennis to a minor sport
standing.
C. W. Hixon did provide prospec­tive
netmen a surprise as he held
Number 2 position during the earlier
stages of the tourney, and finally
ranked Number 5. Hixon, a new­comer
to local courts, played an ex­tremely
effective game for it to be
relatively so easy, and gave some driv­ing
artists considerable trouble until
they solved his stroke. Hixon's
strongest point is his accuracy and
with more speed he would undoubtedly
be even higher ranking than he is at
present.
Herb Whittle, ranking Number 6,
was considerably off his game during
the earlier games of the competition
but improved steadily to' win a covet­ed
position among the eight seeded
players. Russell, who, like Pritchett,
has done much to put the game on a
firm footing, shows a great deal of
promise and should be a valuable
member of the team during the sea­son.
Price is rather erratic but with
practice should become an outstand­ing
player. He is only a sophomore.
According to an announcement
made by the Military Department,
the annual R. O. T. C. camp for Ju­nior
students in military will be held
at Fort Benning, and will last from
June 4 to July 15. This period of
time will be two weeks lonfier than
that of last year.
Although official announcement has
not been made yet, it is thought that
the following officers will attend the
camp: Major Franke, Captain Metts,
Captain Almguist, Lieutenants Phelps,*
Watts, and Huggins of the Field Ar­tillery,
and Captain Grower of. the
Corps of Engineers. Whether Lieu­tenant
Bowman will go is uncertain
in that he may be sent to another
post.
In a summary of all the students
that will attend the camp, including
those from University of Alabama,
University of Florida, Georgia Tech
and Auburn, it was found that there
will be approximately 335 present.
Over half of this number will be Au­burn
men.
Students will be given the same al­lowance
for mileage as last year, but
will receive an increase over last year
pay of 5% for June and 10% for
July.
Another change in the camp will be
the removal of the camp site back to
the regular R. O. T. C. area.

Auburn Debating team will meet Ga.
Tech in the Social Center, debating
the question, "Resolved, That the
Powers of the President Should be
Substantially Increased as a Settled
Policy." Auburn will uphold the af­firmative
of this question, supported
by Ostic Spears and J. C. Ivey. Both
teams are about equal in strength,
which will tend to make the debate
a very interesting one. The debate
will be a non-decision one.

THOMAS JEFFERSON
Thomas Jefferson (born April 13, 1743,
died July 4, 1826) belongs among the im­mortals
of America and of mankind. The
principles of free self-government which
he championed have become the bedrock
of American civilization, and his constant
appeal to reason is still the keynote of a
better social order. Of our two great poli­tical
parties today, one hails him as its
founder; the founders of the others—the
Republicans—called themselves the true
heirs of his teachings.
Of middle class upbringing, he hated the
eastern aristocracy of Virginia. "He was a
product," writes Professor W. E. Dodd, our
present Ambassador to Germany, "of the
first west in American history." He wrote
the Declaration of Independence in the
house of a bricklayer, refused re-election
to Congress, and entered the Virginia legis­lature
to make his own state democratic.
There he brought about the separation of
church and state and established the prin­ciple
of religious freedom which was to be­come
the first statement in the Bill of
Rights.
He was a great lover of humanity and a
champion of the rights of man. He de­clared
his belief "that man was a rational
animal, endowed by nature with rights and
with an innate sense of justice; and that he
could be restrained from wrong and pro­tected
in right by moderate powers confided
to persons of his own choice and held to
their duties by dependence on his own will."
His private motto was that of Cromwell:
"Resistance to tyrants is obedience to God."
As a liberal and a democrat, Jefferson
hated the oppression he had seen in Europe,
and strove to prevent its rise in America.
So accurate was his understanding of the
ways of politics and economics that he was
0
able to describe a situation which has given
rise to Fascist programs in our day: "The
population of England is composed of three
descriptions of persons (for those of minor
note are too inconsiderable to affect a gen­eral
estimate). These are, 1. The aristoc­racy,
comprehending the nobility, the
wealthy commoners, the high grades of
priesthood, and the officers of government.
2. The laboring class. 3. The eleemosynary
class, or paupers, who are about one-fifth
of the whole. The aristocracy, which have
the laws and government in their hands,
have so managed them as to reduce the third
description below the means of supporting
life, even by labor; and to force the second,
whether employed in agriculture or the
arts, to the maximum of labor which the
construction of the human body can endure,
and to the minimum of food, and of the
meanest kind which will preserve it in life,
and in strength sufficient to perform its
functions. . . The less dexterous individuals,
falling into the eleemosynary ranks, furnish
materials for armies and navies to defend
their country, exercise piracy on the ocean,
and carry conflagration, plunder, and de­vastation,
on the shores of all those who
endeavor to withstand their aggressions. A
society thus constituted possesses certainly
the means of defence. But what does it de­fend?
The pauperism of the lowest class,
the abject oppression of the laboring, and
the luxury, the riot, the domination, and
the vicious happiness of the aristocracy.
In their hands, the paupers are used as
tools to maintain their own wretchedness,
and to keep down the laboring portion by
shooting them whenever the desperation
produced by the cravings of their stomachs
drives them into riots."

civilized societies are made.
CONVOCATIONS
(Co-Ed Editorial)
Recently there appeared in this paper an
editorial concerning the new tendency of the
so-called "Auburn Spirit." The writer was
seriously perturbed over the very noticeable
and apparent inadvertency of the student
body to uphold this excellent tradition.
Since it has been always cherished by thou­sands
of students who have gone before, and
has been handed down as something to be
highly valued and esteemed, this state of
disturbance is entirely justified.
When one perceives the old order being
perverted he usually seeks by means of sug­gestions
and hypotheses to remedy the mat­ter.
We wonder then, and venture to offer
this suggestion that our long discontinued
convocation periods be again resumed.
Certainly there would be better chance
for the student body to know each other, to
become better acquainted. By having a
regular convocation every week or every
two weeks, we believe that the old "Auburn
Spirit" of friendliness, comradeship, and
good-will would again appear as it has in
the past.
Not only for the continuation of Auburn's
famed spirit would convocations be a good
thing. Much cultural value could be ob­tained
from them, especially if the college
would find a means to bring to Auburn in­teresting
speakers from other parts of the
country. If this were not possible, our own
faculty should suffice to present interesting
subjects. We believe that these speakers
should not be restricted to heads of depart­ments,
deans, and higher officials, but they
should include all of the faculty. If each
professor talked about a phase of his work,
certainly there would be no lack of sub­jects.
In specialization one rarely has a
chance to obtain more than what his special
line of work-«alls for; therefore, it seems
that diversified topics should prove enlight­ening
and interesting.
Furthermore, a student convocation
should not be without its student repre­sentatives;
we suggest that talks be made
by students. Certainly, the president of
the Executive Council or a president of the
student body should preside when neces­sary.
The latter would involve electing a
president of the student body, but that in
itself would probably be a good thing.
Other schools have regular convocations
and derive benefits from them. It is not
strange then that students from these col­leges
are actually dumbfounded when
informed that Auburn has no regular con­vocations.
They inquire with avid curios­ity
how a school can have unity where there
is hardly ever a meeting of the student
body. Perhaps the waning of our "spirit"
may be directly traced to this source. Why
not, then, t ry to remedy this matter by the
above mentioned suggestions? Certainly,
convocations can do no harm and even if
they do not prove a panacea for our re­cently
developed unfriendliness, other im­portant
benefits may be derived from them.
WORSE THAN THE KU KLUX KLAN
ARE THE SILVER SHIRTS
Among the organizations which have tried
to stimulate their own brand of 100 per
cent Americanism was the Ku Klux Klan.
This organization gained power by over­riding
most of the liberties granted to
negroes and other non-white races in this
country.
Now comes William Dudley Pelley and
his host of the Silver Legion which is at­tempting
to rebuild an Aryan civilization
in America. These Silver Shirts, who have
patterned their organization on the Hitler
formula, are now busy enlisting scatter-brains
for a vigorous anti-semitic campaign.
So far they claim a membership of 75,000
and are now moving to equip a strong arm
division named the Silver Rangers.
Samuel Duff McCoy, writing in Raymond
Moley's administration organ Today quotes
the following -from the Silver Shirt litera­ture:
"The Silver Rangers constitute a
great body of picked men, the equal of any
constabulary in any of the states, who shall
ride shoulder to shoulder toward the support
of harassed police and state constabularies,
arousing the citizenry to the menace that
threatens their stalwart police forces, the
thunder of thousands of Silver Shirt horses
sounding their own warning tocsins to the
real seditionist and the cyndicalist agitator,
inspiring faith and hope in the great body
of the dizzied, pitchforked and intimidated
populace, rallying the great Christian forces
of gentlemanliness and manliness in a
splendorful gesture to take this country
back out of the hands of the alien debauch-ers
and give it to the representative demo­cratic
citizenry."
To the Silver Shirts the Jews are the
people who have ruined the country. Pel-ley's
organization claims that the NRA, the
Federal Reserve bank, the President, and
the recovery organization are affiliated with
the Jews.

squawk for light to see if curls are still
safely in rolled paper? Wouldst haggle

Wouldst wipe the noses of " sniffling

Approaches graduation, coming in leaps

Seems as though last week-end when one

first glimpse of a co-ed inhaling and exhal­ing.
'Tis really disgusting this having in­telligence.
How much nicer when one was

by one who said to me that he was the one

huckster or stevedore . . . how we students
do hate the rabble, the common. "My good

That word "RATE." Whenever one stu­dent
asks another concerning someone else,
'tis: "How does he rate?" An out-of-town

pins, placed upon them by social
organizations, not because the man is ex­ceptional,
but because the organization has
expenses to meet? Too often that has hap­pened.
Are men to be elevated in esteem
because their people have money which pre­vents
the necessity of their having to work

As an example of the fact that the world is becoming more air-minded every
day, we point out the fact that some supposedly prominent Juniors took off after
Friday night's dance on a little private party and had to be rounded up after day­break
from the tops of trees within a radius of a half mile from the point where
the party started. From all we can gather, it had better be their "last round-up,"

Pasadena, Calif.—A 10-ton mirror for
use in a telescope with which science hopes
to peer at objects one billion light years
away (light travels 186,000 miles a second)
and thus see objects as they exist millions
of years before any form of life appeared
on this planet, is being made for the Cal­ifornia
Institute of Technology, at Corning,
N. Y.
Pouring of the molten mass of glass re­quires
ten hours, but that is a short time
compared to the year which will be re­quired
to cool the great mirror and grind
it to proper physical proportions.
The success of the experiment depends
on the efficiency of an electrically-heated
annealing box in which the mirror will
rest and cool by imperceptible degrees until
some time in 1934.
Then the grinding process will take a
few more months. Once completed, the mir­ror
will be sent here to be set up on some
mountain-side, not yet selected, where it
will become the basis for astronomical ob­servations
by the California institution and
the Carnegie Institute of Washington.

When asked what they spent their al­lowances
for, the femmes at Florida State
College for Women gave various and sun­dry
answers.
The motion pictures receive a great part
of this extra capital in that they are the
principal form of outside amusement. A
senior said she spends an average of $2.50
think students, as a whole, are too smug,
and only realize, and regret, this attitude
upon graduation.
I shall remember my talk with a student
of two years ago when we were discussing
the "caste system" of colleges. He said:
"I cannot be discouraged by what people
think of me. If I can but respect myself;
know that I am doing the right thing; live
so my family will not be ashamed of me;
then I will not be dismayed when I hear
other students say of me: 'He doesn't r a t e . '"
monthly on shows, three girls spend $2.00,
a sophomore $1.50, and the other four an
average of $1..
Much of the college girls' pittance flies
away on mail planes and mail trains. The
average student spends 75 cents monthly on
stamps, but two of the interviewed girls
spend $1.50.
According to all nine of the students,
however, they derive the greatest pleasure
from that part of their allowance they
spend on food. When asked what their pet
economies and extravagances were no girl
could think of economy, but seven named
"splurges" and feasts as pet extravagances.
(Technically speaking, a splurge consists
of a movie immediately preceded or fol­lowed
by dinner in town.)
One conclusion to draw from these in­terviews
is the fact that seniors are more
extravagant than underclassmen.

There will be no Junior Prom girl this
year at M. I. T. The chairman of the com­mittee
condemned the practice as "silly," so
the boys are going to struggle-along with­out
a queen. Too bad. Another item of

And over at Montevallo the ladies are
very much upset over the burning of Lova*
man's store in Birmingham. In fact it
was so demoralizing that one of the Ala-bamian's

wrote an article expressing the sorrow of
the burning of a store at whose corner the
Montevallo girls have been meeting for many
years in the pass. And so in behalf of the
Plainsman staff we would like to express
our sympathy to the women of Monte­vallo.

The famous debate question is upon us
again. Is Lown a louse. Lown is not a
louse. But he let a shine come up and
sing "Stardust," a crime that should incur
capital punishment but never will. Bert
made his bid for lousedom when he tried
to use local talent for a good program. If
our local talent was worth a damn, we
wouldn't send all the way to N. Y. for a .
band to come blow for a few dances.

And I guess you noticed the Bull Fiddle
slapper who looked like Jack La Rue, but

And maybe you, like me, wondered why Bert
didn't get a haircut.
* * * *
But we've got to give the Lown bunch
credit for playing those good old tunes as
well as new ones. Especially "You're the
One I Care For." And I guess you saw
him play "Arlene" every dance. It would
be simple to rave on and on about the good
music. But I hope I'm not simple. Suffice
it to say, "Goin' to Heaven On a Mule" was
omitted.

I wondered what Bill G. was thinking
about while gazing into the starry depths
of Gloria's eyes (she had two). It must
have been great to attract all that atten­tion,

nickels and dimes. I heard 'em. And all
poor little Gloria got was a sandwich at

And now about this little matter of the
publications offices. If you'll stop to con­sider
the point, you'll realize that popular
vote will never decide who is the best man
to run a paper or a year-book. The good
sport and well liked big shot who runs for
the job isn't necessarily the best man for
the job. But how are the voters to find
out? Politicians will tell you anything.
One of them promised me a cigar if he were
elected. And forgot about it. They'll tell
you modestly that they are quite the hard­est
working man in the history of institu­tional
journalism, but talk like that abso­lutely
will not write a paper. Let the vot­ers
elect the good guys as class president,
or historian. But don't lets keep the old
policy of letting popular vote put a man
at the head of a newspaper. Or an annual.
It's all over this year. You were pretty
lucky with your publication men. But don't
let it blind you to the possibility of a farcical
election that may mean you'll read a paper
for a whole year put out by somebody who
knows nothing whatsoever about journalism.
The editor of the largest paper in the world
was not chosen by popular vote. He was
chosen because he knew the job. And he
does right well by his paper because he
knows how. Since we do have a college
paper modeled after commercial news­papers,
why not model the selection of the
head man after the commercial way. This
may mean that your pal won't be whoosits
of the Plainman or whatsis in chief of the
Glomerata, but it will mean that you'll get
a good set of collegiate literature. How­ever,
if your friend must have his job, make
another job such as caretaker of the sun­dial
and pay fifty cents more student activ­ity
fee. He gets the job, you get a good
paper, a good annual, and a well kept sun­dial.
Of course, it all depends on how you
like your sun-dials.

And one more crack that is repititive.
I grant that it may be oodles of fun to

And even more fun to shine in the orches­tra

my favorite Stardust with a voice that
should be calling hogs, you've spoiled my
whole day. Don't get me wrong. I thought
you were awfully cute. So did the girl I
was dancing with. But did you hear that
great big B-O-O-0 when you got through?
That was me.

Nu aggregation got two bats in this
second inning. The Lambda Chis de­serve
a considerable amount of credit
for scoring at all against the hitherto
impenetrable defense of the Sigma
Nus, and if they had been able to
check the barrage of doubles and
triples in this one inning, the game
would have undoubtedly been consid­erably
more interesting. But the
closeness of the game after this bad
inning of the Lambda Chis was prob­ably
due more to the slowing of the
Sigma Nus than the improved play
of Lambda Chi. The fielding of
Lambda Chi was noticeably erratic;
errors playing a considerable part in
the scoring of both teams.
To give credit to .any one individual
on the Sigma Nu team would be un­just

TIGER GROWLS
• By B. C. POPE .
Of all the dual meets Auburn has partcipated in during the last few
years none perhaps has provided as many thrills and anxious moments as
the one last Saturday with Georgia here on Drake Field.
Hero honors go to Loyd Richey, elongated hurdler, high jumper, and for
a brief period Saturday, a broad jumper also. After having participated in
both hurdle races and the high jump", and winning all three, Richey was
pressed into service by Coach Hutsell as a broad jumper. Although he did
not win this event, he was able to outjump Green, of Georgia, thus eliminat­ing
the Athenian from qualifying, and insuring Auburn of at least a third
place in the event, which was enough to win the meet. Mr. Richey then
nonchalantly trotted off to the gym, leaving Langdon to participate in the
jump and capture the coveted point for the home side.
Robert Rutland's record leap
over the pole was perhaps the
outstanding performance of the
afternoon. This is all the more
noteworthy when one considers
the fact that Auburn's alternate-captain
has added almost a foot
to his jumping height during
this season. He has developed
and is still developing under the
masterful coaching of Wilbur
Hutsell. Rutland will be one of
the favorites in this event next
week during the Conference
Meet in Birmingham.
Carl Pihl, also, comes in for com­mendation
for his "iron man" act in
winning both the mile and two-mile
races. This feat is uncommon, which
makes performance all the more re­markable.

Auburn will get a chance this
week-end to see Georgia Tech's base­ball
team in action for the first time
this season. Tech's two-game series
with the Plainsmen Friday and Sat-extra-
base quality of their knocks.
Sigma Nu's opponents in the finals
has not as yet been determined and
will not be until Beta Kappa plays
the winner of the Phi Delta Theta-
Delta Sigma Phi game. Beta Kappa,
Delta Sigma Phi and Phi Delta Theta
have strong teams and present indi­cations
point to a close final game.
Delta Sigma Phi advanced to the
third round by virtue of a 4-0 defeat
of Alpha Gamma Rho.
In the tennis tourney Kappa Alpha
defeated Alpha Gamma Rho 6-1, 6-1,
in a first-round match. Kappa Alpha,
represented by Beverly Biggin and
Doc Stanley will play Pi Kappa Phi
in the second round. Pi Kappa Phi
has a strong net combination in
James Tyson and Austin Martin and
the match between Pi Kappa Phi and
Kappa Alpha is expected to close for
a second-round contest.
urday should prove to be highly in­teresting.
The Tigers will also be
performing before the home folks
for the first time under their new
mentor, Coach Del Morgan. Coach
Bobby Dodd will bring a strong out­fit
to the Plains to oppose Auburn.
Tech is reputed to have one of the
outstanding teams of the Conference.

Auburn's polo team, one of
the best in the South since its
organization by Captain Tom
Gunby three years ago, seems to
be having a hard time scheduling
college opponents. It seems that
both Florida and Georgia are
without polo teams this season,
making it practically impossible
for the Plainsmen to play teams
of college rank. Auburn, how­ever,
has performed well against
various Army aggregations faced
to date.

this year who have never previ­ously
viewed the sport. It is hoped
that plans for participating in the

In any event, many here believe
that Auburn has one of the outstand­ing

Auburn's 1934 track aggregation
continued the record set in former
years by Tiger track teams and de­feated
Georgia 64-62 in the first dual
meet of the year for Auburn, Georgia
had previously won three meets.
Graham Batchelor, of Georgia, and
Loyd Richey, of Auburn, led their
respective teams in scoring points;
Batcheldor annexing three firsts and
a second to be the high scorer of the
day, and Richey winning three events
to lead the Tigers. Auburn took eight
firsts and seven seconds in the meet,
Georgia getting six firsts. Georgia,
however, made a clean sweep in two
events, the 440 and the javelin.
Dupree and Pihl each got two firsts,
and Rutland took top honors in his
event, the pole vault by setting a new
school record of 13:4. Dupree, captain
of the thinly-clads, won the 100 and
century with comparative ease. Pihl's
competition in the mile and two-mile
came from his teammate, Gait, who
pushed, him in both events. Rutland
won the pole vault at 12:6 but went
on to new heights and a new school
record.
Auburn's principal weakness as
demonstrated by Saturday's meet is
in the weight events. Auburn got a
total of four points in the shot-put,
the javelin and discus combined.
Tolve annexed a second place in the
shot and Killebrew hurled the discus
for a third. Frank Langdon in the
broad jump saved the day for Auburn
in taking a third in this event.

Auburn High won its second con­secutive
victory of the season Friday
afternoon in defeating Opelika 8-6.
Opelika almost came' from behind in
the ninth with a strong finish but this
rally was quashed by a brilliant catch
at second by Bobbie Wilson.
The Auburn nine scored three runs
in both the first and second, innings
and coasted from there on out, one
run more being made in the sixth and
ninth. Opelika was blanked until the
fifth inning when one run was scored,
one being added in both the sixth and
eighth innings. In the ninth, how­ever,
Opelika got three well-timed hits
which netted three runs but advanced
no further than this by virtue of Wil­son's
fly-grabbing exhibition.
The hero of the occasion for Au­burn
was Trotter, who did some very
impressive pitching. He fanned the
first six men to face him, and struck
out five more in successive innings
for a total of eleven. Trotter also
was a power at the plate as he got
three safeties out of five times at bat;
one of these was good for two bases.
David Wittel also had a good day at
bat, he knocking out two doubles and
two singles in five times up. Mc-
Clane, of Opelika, did some superb
fielding in holding Wittel down to two
bases on his screaming hits into left
field.

Basore Finds New Way
To Manufacture Glass
Dr. C. A. Basore, Auburn chemist,
has discovered a method by which
glass may be made in Alabama from
thirty-five to eighty per cent cheaper
than at present costs. Dr. Basore
discussed his method before a meeting
of the Alabama division of the Amer­ican
Society of Mechanical Engineers
at Birmingham Friday night.
The use of this method, according
to Dr. Basore, can make of Alabama
one of the leading glass producing
sections of the country. The basic ele­ment
used is slag, which can be ob­tained
in abundance from the Bir­mingham
blast furnaces. Natural gas,
which is also used in the production
of glass, can also be obtained in Bir­mingham.
approved by the Federal Bureau of
Immigration for training foreign stu­dents,

It is recognized by leaders in the avia­tion

schools.

tion that, despite all statements to
the contrary, Hitlerism means peace.
Rev. Turner is in this country to col­lect
funds for his Berlin church. In
a recent discussion before ministers
in Syracuse, Rev. Turner asked one
of his colleagues: "If you were in my
place, as minister of the American
Church in Berlin, what would you say
ought to be my Christian attitude
toward Germany and the German
people?" His colleague answered:
"One-must view the Germans as hav­ing
committed a sin against Chris­tianity.
They must repent of their
sins before we can help them. Dil-linger,
Al Capone and Hitler belong
to the same class."
Rev. Turner undertakes to "ex­plain"
Hitlerism to the Americans.
He is an intimate friend of Herr
Hanfstaengel, Hitler's confidential
secretary. Mr. Hanfstaengel has
spoken frequently in *Rev. Turner's
church in Berlin. It has been rumor­ed
that Rev. Turner's trip is being
financed by the Nazis, and that his
return to Berlin is dependent upon
his outspoken defense of the Nazi
program.
