Semi-Weekly Plainsman ©he Auburn if lamsman Where's That Ripple? TO F O S T E R THE A U B U R N S P I R IT VOLUME LIX AUBURN, ALABAMA, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 5, 1935 NUMBER 7 Pledges To Scabbard And Blade Given Free Entertainment Today Something Different Is Provided This Year In Initiation Of Cadets By Military Group CAMP IS PITCHED Will Assume Role Of Indians Tomorrow; Will Climax Day With Banquet At Benson's "It's going on now! Come see the biggest show of the year," bawled the bilious barker. And they came and are still coming to stare with mouths ajar and eyes popping at the free for all show going on night and day right here in Auburn. Year after year the Scabbard and Blade neophytes have fooled the public with the same old show. This year it is going to be different. They may be common everyday cadets to- ' day, but wait until early tomorrow morning when you will be awakened from peaceful slumbers by the war whoops of so many savage indians parked, tepee and all, right in the middle of Toomer's corner. Beginning with a little exhibition of plain and fancy drilling up and down and all over town under the strain of a full pack and an empty stomach, the soldiers of fortune will pitch tents in the square in front of Ross. . There'll be no rest from then on, not even during the night when the hard packed ground will serve as the only mattress for those not keeping a watchful eye for possible intruders on the forbidden camp ground. Yes, there will be guard duty until daybreak, yea, even the guard mount will be carried out in a most military manner. Students and townspeople will be asked to refrain from loud noises as Taps will be blown at 7 o'clock, and each man will crawl into his tent to be put to sleep by the steady stomp, stomp, of the guard outside. Guards will be instructed to keep everybody off the camp area until the break of morning, when the local soldiers will be released from duty long enough to don indian costume and take up their new abode for the day on Toomer's Corner. Co-eds are warned to view the exhibition of savagery from a safe distance, as it is understood the Auburn indians will be on a special lookout for squaws, and everybody is warned to be prepared when the "Battle of the Millennium" gets underway at 9 o'clock. Climax of the whole dramatic affair will be an indian play to be given for the public's benefit at 10 o'clock, after which the annual festivities will be brought to a fitting close with a banquet above Benson's. At this time the co-ed chosen as having the best shape, form, or what-have- you, will be presented with a handsome prize. Social Calendar Is Completed For Semester Beginning with the "A" Club dance scheduled for Saturday night, 29 otjher campus groups will sponsor dances during the semester, according to the complete social calendar released by the Interfraternity Council.

V.M. A. Hears Talk By Duncan Wednesday Dr. L. N. Duncan was the principle speaker at the meeting last Wednesday night of the local student chapter of the American Veterinary Medicine Association. Discussed by Dr. Duncan was the possibility of obtaining sidewalks from the main college campus out to Vet Hill, starting at the library, and also a walk from that point to Ag Hill. At present this project is being worked on by Mr. Shell Toomer. The Auburn Vet School was discussed at length by Dr. Duncan, who stated that the school here was the only one south of the Ohio River and east of the Mississippi, and that the possibilities for the development of the school into one of national importance were favorable. The only problem at present being the lack of sufficient money to construct more buildings and add new equipment. The local chapter of A. V. M. A. holds regular meetings on Wednesday nights. Having learned that Bob Mercer would not be back to school this year, the local chapter of Tau Beta Pi at a meeting last night elected B. D. Godbold as president of the society this year in place of Mercer. Godbold will leave Auburn next week for Detroit where he will represent the local Tau Beta Pi chapter at the national convention to be held in that city for six days beginning on Wednesday. This convention is held every year at which time delegates from the 50 or more chapters throughout the country get together to map out plans for the coming year of Tau Beta Pi. Aside from the regular business sessions, the delegates will be entertained in numerous ways. They will make a trip of inspection through the Edison and Ford plants in Detroit and witness a major football contest during their stay there. The convention will close with a formal banquet and dance for the delegates. Election of seniors to membership in the society will be held within the next three Weeks. Election to the society is the highest honor that can be bestowed upon an engineering student while in college. Anywhere from 10 to 20 new members are chosen each fall. Official figures from the Registrar's office yesterday gave the final enrollment figure for the first semester of the year as 2153 against 1728 enrolled at this time last year. The freshman class numbers 798 in comparison to 617 for last year, representing an increase of nearly 30 per cent as was predicted at the beginning of the year. Enrollment in the other classes is: sophomore, 557; junior, 356, and senior, 378. The comparative figures of last year were 414, 345, and 297, respectively. A total of eight students are enrolled in fifth year architecture, 45 in graduate study, and 11 in special courses. With 541 students enrolled this semester, the School of Engineering is the largest scool on the campus. A close second is the School of Science and Literature with 453 enrolled. Other schools and their respective enrollment is as follows: Agriculture, 213; Architecture and Allied Arts, 111; Chemistry and Pharmacy, 223; Engineering, 541; Education, 358; Home Economics, 78; Science and Literature, 453; and Veterinary Medicine, 176. These figures also include special and graduate students. There are 25 more co-eds at Auburn this year in comparison to last year. The figures are 250 and 225, respectively. In comparison with other colleges throughout the country, Auburn's increase in enrollment far excels most other colleges. The average enrollment increase for all colleges and universities is about 12 per cent. Auburn's increase is nearly 20 per cent.

Many Students Register Here For- Annual Conference Of Methodists Phi Kappa Tau Leads In Frat Scholarship With an average of 86.78 the local chapter of Phi Kappa Tau led all fraternities and sororities on the campus last year in scholarship. The chapter will be awarded the Interfraternity Council Cup in '-the near future. Chi Omega sorority closely trailed Phi Kappa Tau with an average of 84.65 to lead the sororities. Other groups among the first five include senior class, 82.14; Theta Upsilon sorority, 82.62; and Sigma Phi Sigma, 81.37. Kappa Delta ranked third in the sorority group with a 79.66 average and Phi Omega Pi fourth with a 76.99 average. Franke To Be Speaker At First 0. R. C. Meet Student delegates from ten Alabama colleges began arriving today as final plans for the Alabama Methodist Student Conference were completed. Registration starts at 3 P. M. this afternoon, and approximately 75 representatives are expected for the three-day session. Many outstanding speakers are listed on the conference program. Dr. James W. Workman, of the University of Arkansas, will deliver the keynote address, "Christian Students in Action", tonight at 7:45. Other prominent speakers who will take part in the conference-include Dean Dabney S. Lancaster, of the University of Alabama, Dr. Walter D. Agnew, president of Huntingdon College, Dr. Harvey C. Brown, General Board of Christian Education, Nashville, James W. Hardwick, State Y. M. C. A. Secretary. Dr. William Graham Echols, of the University of Alabama, will be dean of the conference. All worship services are under the direction of Dr. Charles T. Fennell, Executive Secretary, North Alabama Conference, Birmingham. Prof. Erie Danley, of the Huntingdon College faculty, will be in charge of music for the conference. The president's address will be delivered by Ray Tipton, of the University of Alabama. Other student officers who will attend include Florence Norton, Birmingham-Southern LACK OF STUDENT COOPERATION FOR GLOMERATA SHOWN Students' Failure To Report At Appointed Time For Pictures Slows Glomerata Progress HEADS NAMED FOR INTERFRATERNITY KEYS GROUP HERE first vice-president; Wilson Hill, Auburn, second vice-president; and Clara Lee, Athens College, secretary. Dean Zebulon Judd will be toast-master at the banquet which will be held tomorrow night. Visiting delegates will be housed in private homes, dormitories and fraternities through town. Dr. Workman will deliver the conference sermon at the eleven o'clock service Sunday. Lieut. Col. G. H. Franke is the first speaker scheduled on the list of lectures to be delivered this year at the O. R. C. meetings planned for the first Monday and third Tuesday of each month in the Engineer classroom in the north basement of Sam-ford Hall. • • The first meeting of the year will be held Monday night at 7:30 o'clock, with Col. Franke speaking on "The Ethiopian Situation". Also at that time the class will be organized. The school will meet for two hours each time. Other lectures will be given during the course of the year by officers on duty with the R.O.T.C. unit here and by visiting lecturers designated by the Fourth Corps Area Headquarters. Other speakers and their subjects include the following: October 22, lecturer and subject chosen by Fourth Corps Area Hand-quarters; November 4, "Strategy of High Command—the Battle of Pi: cardy, March 1918", Lieut. H. W. Ehrgott; November 19, same as for Oct. 22; December 2, "The Big Bertha", Capt. H. L. Watts; December 17, same as for Oct. 22; January 6, "Defense of the Hawaiian Islands", Lieut. R. E. M. Deslslets'; February 3, "Joint Overseas Expeditions", Capt. T. L. Futch; February 18, same as for Oct. 22; March 2, "Motorization of Divisional Light Artillery", (Continued on page 4) Again this year students have shown poor cooperation in having their pictures taken for the Glomerata says Blake Campbell, business manager. The schedule was planned for 70 pictures being taken each day, but up to the present on an average of only 60 pictures have been taken daily. This delay, according to Campbell, is due to the fact that students have failed to report at their appointed time. The number of post cards sent out each day has been gradually increased to 100 with the hopes that the required 70 will appear at the appointed time. Don Johnson, photographer, will be in Auburn only four more weeks to complete his work. The date class pictures for the senior and junior classes have been only partially completed, with the sophomore and freshman class, the largest group, yet to be taken. Students have also failed to come back and look at their proofs. If the Glomerata this year is to come out on schedule, the class picture section will have to be completed within the next 3 weeks. Those who failed to appear at the appointed time are asked to go by the Glomerata office as soon as possible and either get another appointment or have their picture made at that time should the photographer not be busy. Sophomore pictures will be taken all next week, and freshman pictures the two weeks following. Other work on the annual has progressed rapidly, and it is hoped that alT'copy' willbe in the hands' of the printers by the middle of February. It is planned that the book this year be even larger than that published last year. James Tyson Is Elected President of Group; Ward, Farley, Butler In Other Positions New Officers of Keys were elected Wednesday night in the first annual meeting of the society at the Lambda Chi house. James Tyson, Pi Kappa Phi, was elected president; Bob Ward, Lambda Chi, vice-president; Flake Farley, A. T. O., secretary; and Earl Butler, Lambda Chi, treasurer. Keys is a social-interfraternity organization taking its members from the various fraternities on the campus. Its purpose is essentially the promotion of good fellowship and better co-operation among the members of campus fraternities. It is the only honor a man can make during his freshman year. A tapping committee was appoint-' ed by the president and plans were laid for a dance at which the tapping ceremony will be held. Four socials are to be held by the society this year in contrast to the two functions of former years. This includes two dances and a banquet in the'fall, and a weiner roast in the spring. Prospects for Keys are bright and a big year is anticipated. Plans have been laid to spread its membership to all fraternities not now listed on « the society's roll. In thus enlarging the scope of the society its purpose can be fulfilled to a greater degree. By Eugene Lee The Tigers open against their first conference foe of the year when they battle the Tulane eleven in New Orleans tomorrow afternoon. Coach Meagher and his squad departed last night with a big crowd on hand to give them a rousing send-off. This game is the principal intra-conference match on this week's offering. The attention of the entire South will be centered on the outcome of this game. Both teams made great starts into their schedules by outstanding inaugural victories. Auburn goes into the game with an improved team over last year's, while Tulane has a new team whose strength is a mystery. The odds on the outcome are about even. Outsiders contend that Tulane has lost none of the power of last year's team, while Auburn has an improved team to back their chances of scoring a revenge for last year's 13-0 loss. Gone are the stars who carried the Green Wave to a place beside Alabama as last year's co-champions of the Southeastern Conference. The Greenies are depending this season on outstanding sophomores and reserves from last year's squad. The Wave inaugurated the season Saturday with a 44-0 victory over V.M.I. They showed strength in passing and running plays in smothering the Southern Conference team. The Tigers will go into the game .without the services of Hugh Rodgers, star tackle. Rodgers has been sick all the week, and he is definitely out of the game. This was a serious (Continued op page 4) Number Of Transfer Students Here High N O T I C E ! Tau Kappa Alpha will meet in Room 301, Samford Hall, Tuesday night at 8:00 P. M. All members are urged to attend. Last Year's Annuals Be Given Out Monday Students who did not receive their Glomerata last year will be able to obtain the same from the Glomerata office beginning Monday. Those who did not attend school first semester of' last year will be charged $3.05 for the annual. Those not here the second semester will have to pay $1.85. N O T I C E ! The A.S.M.E. will hold its regular meeting Monday evening at 7 P.M. at 109 Ramsay Hall. O. D. Nichols will give a speech on fuels. All Mechanicals and Aeronauticals are invited. In accordance with having the highest enrollment in the history of the college, the number of transfer students this semester is the highest recorded for any regular term. The figures from the Registrar's office show a total of 103. Twenty-one different colleges and universities in 10 states are represented by the transfer students here* The area covered extends as far east as New York and as far west as Kansas. Huntington College in Montgomery is represented by the greatest number of transfer students, nine having attended there before registering this year at Auburn, while six students attended Birmingham-Southern last year and five Mississippi Women's State College. The remaining 83 were evenly distributed among 18 higher institutions of learning. Of these 103 transfer students, 85 are boys and 27 girls, the ratio of girls to boys being somewhat higher among the transfer students than the .entire student body.

At no other time in the past has the need for such a structure been so necessary as it is today. And this need will be greater from year to year as Auburn's enrollment continues to increase at the present rate. Many times during the course of the school year there arise numerous situations which require the entire assembled student body. With Langdon Hall seating not more than 700 students, is is impossible to even get the freshman class together, much less the other three classes. Auburn is probably the only school of its size in the country that does not have an adequate auditorium or student union where the student body can meet together as an integral unit. On other occasions during the year the Auburn Players as well os other groups, both loeal and otherwise, are handicapped by the antiquated facilities of Langdon Hall. The electrical set-up used in past years by the Players for productions in Langdon Hall was declared unsafe by fire insurance underwriters. Regardless of this fact the plays were presented, with extreme precaution being taken against the possible danger of fire. During some performances the main electrical line was even taxed beyond the safe limit. Few realize the vast amount of equipment and the intricate maze of wires and electrical contacts used by dramatic groups to produce the best possible effects" in stage lighting. Langdon Hall is notably lacking in this respect. • Much has been said during the past two years and considerable action taken toward the building of an athletic stadium. Under the old P.W.A. work was actually started on the project behind the artillery stables, but petered out as did many such projects all over the country. At present federal funds are again being asked to continue the work. It is true that Auburn could use a good stadium of this sort. But the question arises as to which is more needed at Auburn— a student union building or a stadium. We believe the former to be by far the more desired need at the present time. The initiative for the stadium is being taken largely by local business men for obvious reasons. This group has been instrumental in many ways in the growth of Auburn. Another group reported to be working for Auburn's betterment is the Alumni Association. But one wonders what this very loyal body has actually done for Auburn during the past several years. Actually they have done nothing. No one doubts but what they are anxious to see Auburn become a bigger and better school, but when definite action is required the buck is passed to so many hands that it is finally lost track of and the issue goes out like a light. True, Auburn is indebted to the Alumni for the gymnasium now used and named in their honor. But that was long ago, and the time is now at hand for them to get together and map out plans for an Auburn Auditorium, a structure that will be a credit to the institution. Auburn vs. Alabama Again this year the matter is brought up concerning the possibility of resuming athletic relations between Auburn and Alabama. It is the opinion held by many here that the situation which exists today, between the two schools has gone far enough. Anybody will admit that it is a bit childish and that there is no real reason why Auburn and Alabama should not meet together in football. Naturally, there is a keen rivalry existing, but this should be all the more reason for athletic relations. Such makes for sport in its highest form. Georgia plays Tech every year which serves to only cement more strongly the friendly and understanding relations between the two colleges. In like manner would a football game between Auburn and Alabama go far toward smoothing out some of the misunderstandings held by each school against the other. Athletic relations were broken many years ago, and there is no reason to believe today that the same causes exist that existed at that time. The trouble is mostly just an idea or feeling that continued from year to year without any real excuse for its being. Last fall the American Legion attempted to force the two schools into a game by a legislative act. This, of course, is the poorest of all ways to solve the problem. In fact it never will be solved by force, but instead by common sense. We believe that Auburn is anxious and ready to resume athletic relations with her sister school Alabama, that the time is now at hand when definite action either one way or the other should be taken. "Well, I'll Swear" The two recently chosen cheerleaders probably did a little silent swearing when they discovered to their disappointment that they would have to pay all costs to football games. It ,was taken for granted by the two, that should they get the job, they would naturally be given at least a free pass to the games by the Athletic Committee. • But, no such soap. They will have to cut up and out for nothing at all but their own enjoyment. After all it would look a bit silly for the Auburn cheering section at a football game to be without cheerleaders. Only the head cheerleader we have learned, receives his expenses paid to the games, the other three make out the best way they can. This seems a bit unfair when it is considered that ^he cheerleaders contribute as much toward excitement of a football game as does the band, all members which get their transportation and admission to the games paid in compensation for their work. It seems only fair that all cheerleaders should receive the same compensation. It would be but a small added cost to the Athletic Committee and would go far toward bringing the Auburn cheering section up to par with other colleges. Auburn's cheerleading quartet has been practicing since the last game in an effort to develop several original stunts to be performed at future games. All acts require that each of the four does his part. But it has been learned that one of the cheerleaders will be unable to make the remaining football games because of financial reasons. Naturally, this is going to throw a wrench into what promises to be the first real cheerleading group that Auburn has had for several years. From the Copy Basket A large number of the freshmen that enter college have no definite conception of —as it is generally termed—"what it is all about." True, you are entering a new environment but you must either make out your schedule of procedure and follow it as near as possible or go about your college career in a hit or miss manner. In a lecture to.one of his freshman classes last year, the professor dropped the point that college men have three suits of college life from which to choose their trump— Spades, Hearts, and Clubs. The suit of spades includes conscientious labor upon scholastic work. It is the general understanding that one comes to college to prepare himself for his life's work, faithful digging will accomplish this task. Campus activities, justly considered, are included to their rightful degree. The suit of hearts—better perhaps, romance— may be chosen as the trump card in one's attending college. But this institution is not blessed with equal numbers of the two sexes. Therefore this question should not command a serious thought, although a number may waste considerable time before they stop to think.. The last suit is the one of clubs which may dazzle some of the freshmen beyond their wits—nay, common rat-sense. There is no doubt that clubs and lodges, in their right position, are almost indispensible to the college. They afford the social contacts, recreation, and general help that is essential. By all means consider this last suit but not to the extreme. ROUND AND ROUND By Floyd Hurt Youth is the time to study wisdom; old age is the time to practice it.—Rousseau.

It is a column of personal comment, and is not to be read as an expression of our editorial policy. * * * * EVERY YEAR there arises the same old problem of Auburn's inadequate accomodation of student get togethers. Langdon Hall with all it's sentiment and years of service has filled it's place as a college auditorium. The inadequacy of auditorium space is one of the most outstanding weaknesses of the Auburn campus at present. But relief of this situation is not impossible. In his message to the Auburn Alumni in the summer Alumnus, Maurice I Bloch, president of the Alumni Association, points out that forty per cent of the dues of the members of the Alumni Association are set aside to be used "for any need of Auburn for which funds are not available." President Block mentions something about the funds possibly being used for scholarships or maybe a building if membership grows enough to warrant such an ambitious project. Why should not the association set as a goal an auditorium for Auburn? Scholarships are fine for students and for the school itself, but the enrollment of Auburn is such now that thought should be given to something beside increase of enrollment and the bringing of more students here until something is done to accommodate those students who are already attending Auburn. With the number of years Auburn has been turning out graduates, the Alumni Association should be able with a concentrated drive raise enough money to build for Auburn an auditorium worthy of the size school she has become during the past several years. Let's see Auburn grow from the ground up. Care must be taken not to let the institution get too top heavy. • * * * * "Deacon" had a good story about the opening dances which he refused to tell for quite a while. Finally he decided it was too good to keep so he thought he would share it with some of his friends. And it got around. It seemed that one of the campus playboys brought his date to the dance on Saturday night and sent her up her side. When he started up he encountered several people desiring to talk things over. Then all of a sudden he was grabbed by the arm and whisked out of the gym and away on some important mission. ' Around eleven he returned and decided to take on a little dancing. Imagine the happy feeling he had when he remembered he had forgotten to' meet his date at the top of the landing. "Deacon" happened to be on hand and saw the forlorn miss standing at the door without an escort, and having met her before, asked her to dance. "Deacon" is not the kind of fellow to be quoted, but he said it was a menacing look the lady gave her date when he came prancing up for a dance. Think how the forgetful felt. * * * * One of "Deacon's" favorite tales has to do with some of the folk back home. There are a couple of families, the Upjohns living at the top of a hill and the Downjohns living at the bottom. There had never been much friendliness lost between the two, but everything the Downjohns had to say about the Upjohns they said in the bosom of the family, because they knew if the Upjohns got wind of anything they would stuff leaves in the waterpipe leading from the spring down the hill and there would be no water for Junior's bath. When Mary Upjohn was to-be-married, Mrs. Downjohn was invited to the wedding. She knew this was just a slap in the face because Mary was going to marry the high school principal who had jilted Mrs. Down-john's favorite daughter. Mr. and Mrs. Downjohn discussed the thing over and over and finally decided the only thing for her to do was go to the wedding. So she bought a double boiler and wrapped it up all nice in tissue paper and started off up the hill. You should h*ear "Deacon" tell about Mrs. Downjohn climbing up the hill with a big bundle under her arm and a purple morning glory in her hat. She bustled up to the front door and since she thought she was late, pushed on in the house. The guests were all lined around the wall waiting. But no Bridegroom. This gave Ma Downjohn a lot of satisfaction but she went over and patted red eyed Mary on the back and kind of mothered her up. Just about this time Mrs. Upjohn saw the 'bridegroom coming up the hill. She wanted to make a big impression on her future son-in-law, so she began herding all her guests out the back door. Only "Deacon" can tell you how Mrs. Downjohn liked this herding business. She jerked around, gave a flip of her head to Mrs. Upjohn and walked back into the living room. Mrs. Upjohn was trying to get the crowd out the back door and around the house to keep the bridegroom from thinking she had to wait on him. But Ma Downjohn balked.

Auburn's First Football Game In Which Dr. Petrie Again Writes For The Plainsman, This Time Telling Of Auburn's First Game, Which Happened To Be Against The Georgia Bulldogs In Atlanta In he fall of 1891 we undertook to bring out of the confusion of mass football at Auburn. All that fall we practiced on the old drill ground back of the main college building, or, as we should now say, between Sam-ford Hall and the Gymnasium. The University of Virginia and the University of North Carolina had already introduced a modification of the English Rugby game. I 'made a trip to the University of Virginia, my Alma Mater, and got all the fine points that I could get from their famous player Addison Greenway and from H. S. Hedges, who was an old friend of mine and was playing on their team. At the University of Georgia they were beginning to play the regular game under the leadership of my friend, Dr. Charles Herty. Later in the season, as we both began to feel that we were learning the game, a match was arranged between our two teams. The date was set for February the 22nd, 1892, and Atlanta was the natural meeting point. At Auburn we strained our financial resources and bought uniforms for the team, but we used them very seldom in our practice. We were trying to keep them clean for the great game with Georgia. Shortly before the game I visited Athens to make some final arrangements. I shall never forget the cordial welcome given me there. The men who were in charge insisted that I should come out and see their team practice. I protested that it might not be fair for me to do so, but they overruled me. Their team seemed to me to play beautifully, and I returned to Auburn filled with admiration for their skill and good sportsmanship. ' A football game was then quite a novelty to the people in Atlanta. We were very uncertain as to what the attendance would be. The newspapers gave us good .publicity, and we wrote articles for them explaining how the game was played and giving them personal points about the individual players. When the time came, the Georgia boys and their friends arrived on a special train. We also had a train of our own consisting of two coaches. One was filled with boys from Starke's School in Montgomery, who were eager to see the game, and the other with our team and their friends. Both trains were decorated with college colors. The famous old Kimball house was headquarters for both teams. The Georgia boys naturally felt at home and made the whole place ring with "Rah! Rah! Georgia!". It was wonderfully effective. I still think it the finest college yell in the world. We replied with: "Rah rah, ree Rah rah ree Alabama A. M. C." chance she had been waiting for. A few hot words followed and she dived in the corner and began digging in the pile of tissue paper. She found her double boiler and pulled out down the hill. Since then the Downjohns have dug a well because the pipe has been stuffed with leaves ever since. Leave it to "Deacon" to get the low down. The A. M. C. stood for Agricultural and Mechanical College, which was then the name of our institution. Somehow we couldn't get much punch in it. Their yell was a war cry. Ours sounded like a mild announcement. Our team went out to the grounds on a street car. The Georgia team had a "tally-ho". If you don't know what a "tally-ho" is, imagine a beautiful, long, open bus-like affair drawn, if I remember correctly, by four fine horses and brilliantly decorated with the college colors. It certainly had style. The day was dark and rainy, and we were very anxious to see what the attendance would be. When we got to the park one glance at the stands made us happy. They were filled. The newspapers stated that there were five thousand present, but I think this was an over-estimate. 1 The play began and so did the rain. Those beautiful new uniforms were quickly a mass of mud. But who cared? The players did not know it was raining and those in the stands soon got so excited that they forgot it. Some of the finer points of the Georgia play got lost in the mud, and man for man the teams were well matched. As I look back on it after all these years the things that stand out in my mind are the remarkable punting of our fullback Barnwell, the elusive running of Dutch Dor-sey, and the cool generalship of our captain Frank Lupton. But, as every football man knows, these could not have materialized if our line had not held. Auburn lines have long been famous. That was our first one and it set a fine example for those that came later. The referee, who was an old Princeton man, said after the game that "the blocking of the Georgia team was beautiful, but the Auburn men played more like a Yale or a Princeton team". Auburn won by the score of ten to zero, but the teams were more evenly matched than the score would indicate, and the result was in doubt up to the end. I have had many happy moments, but not often, if ever, have I been as happy as I was when that game was over. Many staid and perfectly sober citizens in the grandstand acted like crazy youngsters. One charming and gentle lady from Auburn in her excitement broke her parasol over the head and shoulders of a gentleman in front of her whom she had never seen before. Two strange men in their enthusiasm after the game grabbed our big center and before anyone could stop them hustled him into their buggy, squeezed him in between them, all muddy as he was, and drove back to the Kimball House shouting: "Rah Rah Ree Alabama A. B. C." The old Kimball House seemed much more home-like after our victory. The Georgia boys took their defeat like good sports. The two teams mingled freely in the great hotel lobby. The friendly feeling between the two institutions which was so manifest then has continued to this day. Much of it I tribute to the influence of Dr. Charles Herty, who was then and for many years afterwards the guiding spirit in athletics at the University of Georgia.

It is a column of personal comment, and is not to be read as an expression of our editorial policy. * * * * ' . ONCE UPON A TIME. Yes, there was a time when Auburn did not have a dining place or theatre to boast of. Not so today! To date, we have three of the most modern and well appointed cafes to be found anywhere, and a theatre that is equal to most and better than many in places the size of the Village of the Plains. Do the students here realize the improvement of their lot over that of the students of the past? To all outward appearances the answer is a loud "NO". These appearances are manifest in the general conduct of Mr. Average Student while enjoying the above mentioned establishments have to offer. At the cafes, burned napery and scarred or carved furnishings are the everyday "ear marks" that students use them. It seems increditable to mention that cutlery and dishes are no longer taken as souvenirs, but rather with an eye to the future. While visiting in a fellow student's room the other night he showed me an almost complete set of cutlery and with a certain pride. He added, "one never knows when such might come in handy." At the theatre the same traits are demonstrated. Loud and even profane comments are liable to be heard at any time during the performance. Then there is the fellow who must needs be told that smoking is not allowed in the theatre because of fire. Those are the more potent illuses of the only show in Auburn. Removal of seat covers and cutting the cushions with knives seem to be accepted as the things to do. Such things caused a man, who is supposed to know, to say the average of the Auburn Student's I.Q. is much below that of the local high school. I don't know, but what's the matter fellows—don't we appreciate the improvements as they come to us? * * * * FROM A VERY RELIABLE SOURCE. Auburn co-eds are becoming more worldly. They no longer buy their smokes by the package but rather cigars—one at a time. Ask the faculty, they should know. * * * * SPEAKING OF THE THEATRE. We are about to see what I thought the best musical show yet, Gracie Allen and George give it t h a t . . . you know. Gracie Allen and George Burns suffered such an attack of homesickness for vaudeville during the production of the Paramount comedy, "The Big Broadcast of 1936" which will be at the Tiger over the weekend, that they practiced their old dance routines between scenes of the picture. The "Big Broadcast of 1936", which presents the largest array of stars yet, centers around the humorous hair-raising adventures of two radio performers whom air wave fans think one person. The story follows the lives of the two boys through the episode of meeting a-beautiful young countess who kidnaps them until she can decide wfiich of them to marry. Their efforts to escape, in which they unwittingly take part in an international broadcasting contest, forms one of the hilarious sequences of the comedy. Ethel Merman goes into action with the song, "It's the Animal in Me". * * * * STAN SAYS.

The major upset was the tying of Alabama by Howard. After last year's record the Red Raiders were expected to run roughshod over the comparatively weak Howard eleven, which proves that records don't mean everything. The highest score of the week-end was made by Ole Mississippi when they pushed the Memphis Teachers all over the lot to amass 92 points while the Teachers had to be content with an immense 0 on the scoreboard. Vanderbilt, rated as a strong team, had difficulty in defeating Mississippi State 14-9. However, both teams showed plenty of power and should be sore spots in any team's schedule. Rice and L- S. U. had a great battle which ended up with L. S. U. on the short end of a 10-7 score. Rice is rated as one of the strongest teams in the country and have championship possibilities.

Tryouts for the freshman tank team were concluded Wednesday, October 2, at the Alumni Gymnasium pool and Coach Gordan McKinney picked the team that will represent Auburn at the freshman swimming meets this year. Twelve men made the grade out of thirty-five applicants that reported for practice on Monday and Tuesday. This year's frosh team, according to Coach McKinney, should be the best in Auburn's history. All of the applicants swam against time and the marks made by this year's squad were far better than any previous freshman group. Those that have been chosen as members of the tank squad are: Allen Wingo, Jack Monger, Cecil Conner, Jim Lyons, Carl Chambers, Bud Garcia, Alvin Vogtle, Charles Chitty, Donald McCollough, R. W. O'Donnell, Worth McQue, and Allen Babcock. According to Coach McKinney, Allen Wingo and Jack Monger are two of tne brightest prospects on the squad. Swimming the 50 yard free style, Wingo clipped it off in 28 seconds, while Monger was a second behind with 29. Both of these men made unusually good time for preseason swimming. McCollough and O'Donnell performed well in the backstroke while Babcock gave a good performance in the breaststroke. McQue and Chambers, also a free styler, will do the diving for the frosh tank team. The other men mentioned will swim in the free style events. Of course the team is rather ragged at present but with plenty of hard practice, they will soon round into tip-top shape.

The forewall is one of the best in the country, but the backs lack polish. However, the team should make a creditable showing this year. Florida came out on the long end of a 34-0 score when they met Stetson last week. The high-light of the game came when Duke Warren intercepted a pass and ran 87 yards for a touchdown. The Tennessee-Southwestern game proved to be a dull affair with Tennessee emerging victorious 20-0. The only thrill came when Sam Sharpe ran 48 yards through the Southwestern team for a tally. Tulane exhibited a strong attack when they ran V. M. I. ragged to win 44-0. How they will fare against the Conference teams remains to be seen. Kentucky's gridders accredited themselves honorably as the defeated Xavier 21-7 in a rather dull game.

Cross-country is now well under way with a large squad practicing daily for the forthcoming meet with Georgia Tech on Saturday, October 26th. The Tech harriers are reputed to be in fine condition and will undoubtedly furnish the Auburn team with plenty of competition. A large crowd is expected to attend the meet, which will be held in Auburn. Coach Hutsell is looking forward to a great deal of support from the student body. The squad is composed of 15 members— Bill Emery, who is captain of the team, Powers, Chandler, Stinson, Cothran, Steppe, Lee, Chambers, Dunning, Oates, Barlow, Gresham, Morris, Arruza, and Duncan. Three of the greatest distance runners known in the history of Auburn track teams—Captain Carl Pihl, Lin-wood Funchess, and Ed Gait—are lost to the team this year as they graduated last June. These three men were the backbone of last year's team and will be sorely missed this season. At present, only 'two meets have been arranged, but others are being considered. Besides Georgia Tech, the team will meet the University of Florida in Gainsville on November 16th.

POLO PLAYERS OF LAST YEAR GIVEN ATHLETIC AWARDS With Exception Of Few Men Team This Year Will Have Many Experienced Players Patronize Plainsman advertisers. After the smoke of the battle with the Panthers Friday night had cleared away, the Tigers could look back over their performance in Cramton Bowl with the satisfaction of knowing that they had made a great beginning of their murderous schedule. Coach Meagher's team showed power and promise in every department. His team struck fast and hard in the early part of the game. The game had only started before two touchdowns had been scored from six plays. After the Tiger mentor had removed the entire line with the exception of Gilbert and inserted Hitchcock into the backfield, the team still carried on to show that the reserve strength was good. Hitchcock during his stay in the game branded himself as the likely answer to Auburn's -need of a triple-threat in the backfield. This brother of Auburn's famous backfield coach starred in running plays and punting and the way he returned punts would gladden the heart of any coach. Pass' defense and offense received a good test. Of the eleven passes attempted by the Panthers only three were completed for a total of thirty yards. This was remarkable when it is considered that McKay, one of the best backs of the Dixie Conference, was doing the tossing. Pass offense showed to advantage as the Panthers had nearly the same back-field as they had last year to break up Auburn's passing attempts. The line was slow in charging in sometimes and as a,consequence the offense would bog down. On the whole the blocking was good for so early in the season. Tipper, Hitchcock, Karam, and Kilgore showed power in running plays. Auburn did .not show its real strength Friday night. With so many changes being made in the lineup at different times during the progress of the game, this naturally took away balance and coordination. The Tigers should be a power in Southeastern football circles toward the end of the season. * * * The campus is dotted now with frat football groups. This is always an interesting activity for students looking for recreation at this time of the year. Soon a schedule will be issued and nearly every afternoon will see a merry ba'ttle waged. To facilitate a satisfactory manner of handling the writeups for these games, it is requested that a reporter be selected for each team.

In addition to these experienced men there are a few new students who are expected to go out for the squad this year. Last year Captain Gunby, coach of the team, went with the players on a tour, playing Ohio State and the University of Missouri. Captain Klepinger is to coach the team this year.

WANTED: SOME GOOD USED FURNITURE BY NEWLY ARRIVED FAMILY. INQUIRE PLAINS-MAN OFFICE. Relations Began in 1906 When Tigers Snowed Green Wave Under With Score Of 3 3 To 0 ; Tulane Has Not Lost Game To Southern Team Since 1933 W h e n Defeated By Auburn Auburn and Tulane have been playing football with each other for 29 years, playing 15 games in that time. During this span of time Auburn has won six games, lost seven, and two affairs ended in a deadlock. It seems that the Tigers have been a "jinx" team for the Green Wave, dating back to 1926. It's not exactly a superstition either; it is based on facts. Auburn meets Tulane in New Orleans Saturday, in the big Southeastern Conference game of the week, and here's a few facts to back up the "jinx" bug-a-boo. It all started in 1926 when Tulane invited Auburn to play in the dedication of its new stadium. Tulane was a heavy favorite but the Plainsmen held the Greenbacks well and ruined the dedication ceremony by getting a safety in the third period. The game ended Auburn 2, Tulane 0. In 1927, Auburn was able to tie Tulane, 6-6, in New Orleans, Callahan scampering 85 yards to score the tally for the Tigers. Auburn had had a bad season that year and this tie with Tulane was considered a moral victory. Tulane stated one of the greatest of all football victory records back in October, 1928—a record of not losing a game to a Southern team— and that march continued unbroken right down to October, 1932. Auburn finally broke that record. Jimmy Hitchcock and his mates ruined it with a smashing 19-7 victory. In 1933, Tulane, after a wobbly start, beat Maryland and Georgia Tech and only had Auburn between it and the big Colgate game, which they wanted to enter with a clean slate. Auburn had lost to Georgia Tech and George Washington. However the Tigers upset the Green Wave, winning, 13-7, with Kimbrell starring. Tulane hasn't lost a game to a Southern team since that defeat at the hands of Auburn in October, 1933. All Auburn fans are hoping that the Tigers will duplicate their performance in the '32 game this Saturday. The complete records of the rivalry of the two teams follows: 1906 1921 1922 1923 1924 1925 1927 1928 1929 1930 1931 1932 1933 1934 Auburn 33 14 19 6 6 0 6 12 0 0 0 ia 13 0 Tulane 0 0 0 6 14 13 6 13 53 21 27 7 7 13* «_ Flowers for all Occasions KING'S NURSERY Phone 695-J OPELIKA, ALABAMA HAGEDORN'S DEPARTMENT STORE DRY GOODS LADIES' READY-TO-WEAR LADIES' A N D CHILDRENS' SHOES DRAPERIES — CURTAINS — CARPETS A Most Complete Gents' Furnishing Department Opelika, Alabama Spend Wisely-Save Regularly Insuring Is Saving Money is w i s e l y spent when it is invested in INSURANCE.

Either Holman or Roton will start at Rodgers' position. Big Sam McCrosky will probably start at guard instead of Sivell, the sophomore who took his place in the opening game against Birmingham- Southern. With the exception of the changes at guard and tackle the lineup will probably be the same that faced the Panthers last Friday night . at the opening whistle. Strange and Captain Mutt Morris will start at the end positions. Strange was the target for most of Hitchcock's passes in the Panther game and came through in great style. Morris scored one of Auburn's touchdowns on an end-around play and stood out in his line play. Paterson's play was not up to standard, but has was just recouper-ating from an injury and should be in good condition for the Green Wave. Gilbert's play'at center on defense and offense placed him as the outstanding lineman of either team. Hitchcock will receive his first test of conference competition against the Greenies. His play in the Panther game was sensational at times. Karam, Hitchcock, Tipper, and Kil-gore gave the Tigers strength in running plays and compare equally as well as the fast backs of Tulane.

T. Ivey, in his talk to the International Relations Club last Tuesday night, stated that war between Ethiopia and Italy is inevitable. Professor Ivey's subject was "The League of Nations in the Crisis with Abyssinia". "The situation in Europe today is the result of a series of miscalculations. The condition is very similar to the condition which existed prior to 1914." Some of these miscalculations as Professor Ivey calls them are: The League of Nations is taking a prominent part in an International controversy for the first time since its formation, France has joined England in a kind of treaty, England misjudged the Italians military and naval strength, and as conditions are now, the attacking nation will lose in the end. The League of Nations is now composed of 59 countries, but there are only four great nations in the League. These great nations are: England, France, Russia, and Italy. Japan's withdrawal from the League has just become effective. "The sucdess or failure of the League of Nations as a means of arbitrating national disputes probably hinges on the results of the Italo- Ethiopian question," stated Professor Ivey.

Large Crowd Attends Tulane Mass Meeting Led by the band from Langdon Hall to the railway station, an enthusiastic delegation of several hundred students staged a mammoth demonstration as a send-off for the football team departing for New Orleans. Bill McTyiere and his corps of cheerleaders were on hand to aid the band in giving the team and coaching staff an indication of just how hard the folks back home' will be pulling for them when they go up against the strong Tulane Greenies tomorrow in the Louisiana city. Between yells the band played several inspiring numbers, while the crowd that remained at the station from 7:15 until the train left the station kept up a continuous clamor that left no doubt in the minds of Coach Meagher and his men as to the backing they will receive from the student body in either victory or defeat. Although obviously pleased at the display of pep and enthusiasm by those participating in the demonstration last night, McTyiere was still dissatisfied with the number of students who turned out for the occas-sion.

Several business houses have done their part toward making the -project a reality by donating whatever materials they had that would be useful to the textile faculty. In an interview with a Plainsman reporter, Prof. W. C. Camp, head of the textile department, said: "The addition of a rayon manufacturing unit to our machinery should be of great educational value to textile students. It should also be a source of interest to others outside of the school on account of the remarkable process involved. It should be understood that rayon is the only fibre that has been successfully made by man. All the other cloths, wool, cotton, silk, etc., are already fibre in the raw state." According to Prof. Camp, assembly will begin within'a few days, and the entire unit will be ready for operation about the middle of November. Traces Of Inland Sea Discovered By Prof. • Northampton, Mass. (NSFA) — Smith College students have this summer traced the boundaries of a sea that was once in the interior of the United States. This work was carried on during a geology field trip to western South Dakota and eastern Wyoming directed by Professor Howard A Meyerhoff. By ferreting organisms out of the strata, they have uncovered information concerning the inundation in the Cambrian period of geologic time, linking the shallow waters which covered the Great Plains with a contemporaneous sea spreading from the Great Lakes to the Gulf of Mex- ROTC NON-COMS APPOINTED FOR ENGINEERS' UNIT (Continued from page 1) geants E.

Come see the biggest show of the year," bawled the bilious barker. And they came and are still coming to stare with mouths ajar and eyes popping at the free for all show going on night and day right here in Auburn. Year after year the Scabbard and Blade neophytes have fooled the public with the same old show. This year it is going to be different. They may be common everyday cadets to- ' day, but wait until early tomorrow morning when you will be awakened from peaceful slumbers by the war whoops of so many savage indians parked, tepee and all, right in the middle of Toomer's corner. Beginning with a little exhibition of plain and fancy drilling up and down and all over town under the strain of a full pack and an empty stomach, the soldiers of fortune will pitch tents in the square in front of Ross. . There'll be no rest from then on, not even during the night when the hard packed ground will serve as the only mattress for those not keeping a watchful eye for possible intruders on the forbidden camp ground. Yes, there will be guard duty until daybreak, yea, even the guard mount will be carried out in a most military manner. Students and townspeople will be asked to refrain from loud noises as Taps will be blown at 7 o'clock, and each man will crawl into his tent to be put to sleep by the steady stomp, stomp, of the guard outside. Guards will be instructed to keep everybody off the camp area until the break of morning, when the local soldiers will be released from duty long enough to don indian costume and take up their new abode for the day on Toomer's Corner. Co-eds are warned to view the exhibition of savagery from a safe distance, as it is understood the Auburn indians will be on a special lookout for squaws, and everybody is warned to be prepared when the "Battle of the Millennium" gets underway at 9 o'clock. Climax of the whole dramatic affair will be an indian play to be given for the public's benefit at 10 o'clock, after which the annual festivities will be brought to a fitting close with a banquet above Benson's. At this time the co-ed chosen as having the best shape, form, or what-have- you, will be presented with a handsome prize. Social Calendar Is Completed For Semester Beginning with the "A" Club dance scheduled for Saturday night, 29 otjher campus groups will sponsor dances during the semester, according to the complete social calendar released by the Interfraternity Council. The calendar is now complete for this semester. The complete social calendar is as follows: Oct. 5, "A" Club; Oct. 11, A.V.

V.M. A. Hears Talk By Duncan Wednesday Dr. L. N. Duncan was the principle speaker at the meeting last Wednesday night of the local student chapter of the American Veterinary Medicine Association. Discussed by Dr. Duncan was the possibility of obtaining sidewalks from the main college campus out to Vet Hill, starting at the library, and also a walk from that point to Ag Hill. At present this project is being worked on by Mr. Shell Toomer. The Auburn Vet School was discussed at length by Dr. Duncan, who stated that the school here was the only one south of the Ohio River and east of the Mississippi, and that the possibilities for the development of the school into one of national importance were favorable. The only problem at present being the lack of sufficient money to construct more buildings and add new equipment. The local chapter of A. V. M. A. holds regular meetings on Wednesday nights. Having learned that Bob Mercer would not be back to school this year, the local chapter of Tau Beta Pi at a meeting last night elected B. D. Godbold as president of the society this year in place of Mercer. Godbold will leave Auburn next week for Detroit where he will represent the local Tau Beta Pi chapter at the national convention to be held in that city for six days beginning on Wednesday. This convention is held every year at which time delegates from the 50 or more chapters throughout the country get together to map out plans for the coming year of Tau Beta Pi. Aside from the regular business sessions, the delegates will be entertained in numerous ways. They will make a trip of inspection through the Edison and Ford plants in Detroit and witness a major football contest during their stay there. The convention will close with a formal banquet and dance for the delegates. Election of seniors to membership in the society will be held within the next three Weeks. Election to the society is the highest honor that can be bestowed upon an engineering student while in college. Anywhere from 10 to 20 new members are chosen each fall. Official figures from the Registrar's office yesterday gave the final enrollment figure for the first semester of the year as 2153 against 1728 enrolled at this time last year. The freshman class numbers 798 in comparison to 617 for last year, representing an increase of nearly 30 per cent as was predicted at the beginning of the year. Enrollment in the other classes is: sophomore, 557; junior, 356, and senior, 378. The comparative figures of last year were 414, 345, and 297, respectively. A total of eight students are enrolled in fifth year architecture, 45 in graduate study, and 11 in special courses. With 541 students enrolled this semester, the School of Engineering is the largest scool on the campus. A close second is the School of Science and Literature with 453 enrolled. Other schools and their respective enrollment is as follows: Agriculture, 213; Architecture and Allied Arts, 111; Chemistry and Pharmacy, 223; Engineering, 541; Education, 358; Home Economics, 78; Science and Literature, 453; and Veterinary Medicine, 176. These figures also include special and graduate students. There are 25 more co-eds at Auburn this year in comparison to last year. The figures are 250 and 225, respectively. In comparison with other colleges throughout the country, Auburn's increase in enrollment far excels most other colleges. The average enrollment increase for all colleges and universities is about 12 per cent. Auburn's increase is nearly 20 per cent.

Many Students Register Here For- Annual Conference Of Methodists Phi Kappa Tau Leads In Frat Scholarship With an average of 86.78 the local chapter of Phi Kappa Tau led all fraternities and sororities on the campus last year in scholarship. The chapter will be awarded the Interfraternity Council Cup in '-the near future. Chi Omega sorority closely trailed Phi Kappa Tau with an average of 84.65 to lead the sororities. Other groups among the first five include senior class, 82.14; Theta Upsilon sorority, 82.62; and Sigma Phi Sigma, 81.37. Kappa Delta ranked third in the sorority group with a 79.66 average and Phi Omega Pi fourth with a 76.99 average. Franke To Be Speaker At First 0. R. C. Meet Student delegates from ten Alabama colleges began arriving today as final plans for the Alabama Methodist Student Conference were completed. Registration starts at 3 P. M. this afternoon, and approximately 75 representatives are expected for the three-day session. Many outstanding speakers are listed on the conference program. Dr. James W. Workman, of the University of Arkansas, will deliver the keynote address, "Christian Students in Action", tonight at 7:45. Other prominent speakers who will take part in the conference-include Dean Dabney S. Lancaster, of the University of Alabama, Dr. Walter D. Agnew, president of Huntingdon College, Dr. Harvey C. Brown, General Board of Christian Education, Nashville, James W. Hardwick, State Y. M. C. A. Secretary. Dr. William Graham Echols, of the University of Alabama, will be dean of the conference. All worship services are under the direction of Dr. Charles T. Fennell, Executive Secretary, North Alabama Conference, Birmingham. Prof. Erie Danley, of the Huntingdon College faculty, will be in charge of music for the conference. The president's address will be delivered by Ray Tipton, of the University of Alabama. Other student officers who will attend include Florence Norton, Birmingham-Southern LACK OF STUDENT COOPERATION FOR GLOMERATA SHOWN Students' Failure To Report At Appointed Time For Pictures Slows Glomerata Progress HEADS NAMED FOR INTERFRATERNITY KEYS GROUP HERE first vice-president; Wilson Hill, Auburn, second vice-president; and Clara Lee, Athens College, secretary. Dean Zebulon Judd will be toast-master at the banquet which will be held tomorrow night. Visiting delegates will be housed in private homes, dormitories and fraternities through town. Dr. Workman will deliver the conference sermon at the eleven o'clock service Sunday. Lieut. Col. G. H. Franke is the first speaker scheduled on the list of lectures to be delivered this year at the O. R. C. meetings planned for the first Monday and third Tuesday of each month in the Engineer classroom in the north basement of Sam-ford Hall. • • The first meeting of the year will be held Monday night at 7:30 o'clock, with Col. Franke speaking on "The Ethiopian Situation". Also at that time the class will be organized. The school will meet for two hours each time. Other lectures will be given during the course of the year by officers on duty with the R.O.T.C. unit here and by visiting lecturers designated by the Fourth Corps Area Headquarters. Other speakers and their subjects include the following: October 22, lecturer and subject chosen by Fourth Corps Area Hand-quarters; November 4, "Strategy of High Command—the Battle of Pi: cardy, March 1918", Lieut. H. W. Ehrgott; November 19, same as for Oct. 22; December 2, "The Big Bertha", Capt. H. L. Watts; December 17, same as for Oct. 22; January 6, "Defense of the Hawaiian Islands", Lieut. R. E. M. Deslslets'; February 3, "Joint Overseas Expeditions", Capt. T. L. Futch; February 18, same as for Oct. 22; March 2, "Motorization of Divisional Light Artillery", (Continued on page 4) Again this year students have shown poor cooperation in having their pictures taken for the Glomerata says Blake Campbell, business manager. The schedule was planned for 70 pictures being taken each day, but up to the present on an average of only 60 pictures have been taken daily. This delay, according to Campbell, is due to the fact that students have failed to report at their appointed time. The number of post cards sent out each day has been gradually increased to 100 with the hopes that the required 70 will appear at the appointed time. Don Johnson, photographer, will be in Auburn only four more weeks to complete his work. The date class pictures for the senior and junior classes have been only partially completed, with the sophomore and freshman class, the largest group, yet to be taken. Students have also failed to come back and look at their proofs. If the Glomerata this year is to come out on schedule, the class picture section will have to be completed within the next 3 weeks. Those who failed to appear at the appointed time are asked to go by the Glomerata office as soon as possible and either get another appointment or have their picture made at that time should the photographer not be busy. Sophomore pictures will be taken all next week, and freshman pictures the two weeks following. Other work on the annual has progressed rapidly, and it is hoped that alT'copy' willbe in the hands' of the printers by the middle of February. It is planned that the book this year be even larger than that published last year. James Tyson Is Elected President of Group; Ward, Farley, Butler In Other Positions New Officers of Keys were elected Wednesday night in the first annual meeting of the society at the Lambda Chi house. James Tyson, Pi Kappa Phi, was elected president; Bob Ward, Lambda Chi, vice-president; Flake Farley, A. T. O., secretary; and Earl Butler, Lambda Chi, treasurer. Keys is a social-interfraternity organization taking its members from the various fraternities on the campus. Its purpose is essentially the promotion of good fellowship and better co-operation among the members of campus fraternities. It is the only honor a man can make during his freshman year. A tapping committee was appoint-' ed by the president and plans were laid for a dance at which the tapping ceremony will be held. Four socials are to be held by the society this year in contrast to the two functions of former years. This includes two dances and a banquet in the'fall, and a weiner roast in the spring. Prospects for Keys are bright and a big year is anticipated. Plans have been laid to spread its membership to all fraternities not now listed on « the society's roll. In thus enlarging the scope of the society its purpose can be fulfilled to a greater degree. By Eugene Lee The Tigers open against their first conference foe of the year when they battle the Tulane eleven in New Orleans tomorrow afternoon. Coach Meagher and his squad departed last night with a big crowd on hand to give them a rousing send-off. This game is the principal intra-conference match on this week's offering. The attention of the entire South will be centered on the outcome of this game. Both teams made great starts into their schedules by outstanding inaugural victories. Auburn goes into the game with an improved team over last year's, while Tulane has a new team whose strength is a mystery. The odds on the outcome are about even. Outsiders contend that Tulane has lost none of the power of last year's team, while Auburn has an improved team to back their chances of scoring a revenge for last year's 13-0 loss. Gone are the stars who carried the Green Wave to a place beside Alabama as last year's co-champions of the Southeastern Conference. The Greenies are depending this season on outstanding sophomores and reserves from last year's squad. The Wave inaugurated the season Saturday with a 44-0 victory over V.M.I. They showed strength in passing and running plays in smothering the Southern Conference team. The Tigers will go into the game .without the services of Hugh Rodgers, star tackle. Rodgers has been sick all the week, and he is definitely out of the game. This was a serious (Continued op page 4) Number Of Transfer Students Here High N O T I C E !

Last Year's Annuals Be Given Out Monday Students who did not receive their Glomerata last year will be able to obtain the same from the Glomerata office beginning Monday. Those who did not attend school first semester of' last year will be charged $3.05 for the annual. Those not here the second semester will have to pay $1.85. N O T I C E ! The A.S.M.E. will hold its regular meeting Monday evening at 7 P.M. at 109 Ramsay Hall. O. D. Nichols will give a speech on fuels. All Mechanicals and Aeronauticals are invited. In accordance with having the highest enrollment in the history of the college, the number of transfer students this semester is the highest recorded for any regular term. The figures from the Registrar's office show a total of 103. Twenty-one different colleges and universities in 10 states are represented by the transfer students here* The area covered extends as far east as New York and as far west as Kansas. Huntington College in Montgomery is represented by the greatest number of transfer students, nine having attended there before registering this year at Auburn, while six students attended Birmingham-Southern last year and five Mississippi Women's State College. The remaining 83 were evenly distributed among 18 higher institutions of learning. Of these 103 transfer students, 85 are boys and 27 girls, the ratio of girls to boys being somewhat higher among the transfer students than the .entire student body.

At no other time in the past has the need for such a structure been so necessary as it is today. And this need will be greater from year to year as Auburn's enrollment continues to increase at the present rate. Many times during the course of the school year there arise numerous situations which require the entire assembled student body. With Langdon Hall seating not more than 700 students, is is impossible to even get the freshman class together, much less the other three classes. Auburn is probably the only school of its size in the country that does not have an adequate auditorium or student union where the student body can meet together as an integral unit. On other occasions during the year the Auburn Players as well os other groups, both loeal and otherwise, are handicapped by the antiquated facilities of Langdon Hall. The electrical set-up used in past years by the Players for productions in Langdon Hall was declared unsafe by fire insurance underwriters. Regardless of this fact the plays were presented, with extreme precaution being taken against the possible danger of fire. During some performances the main electrical line was even taxed beyond the safe limit. Few realize the vast amount of equipment and the intricate maze of wires and electrical contacts used by dramatic groups to produce the best possible effects" in stage lighting. Langdon Hall is notably lacking in this respect. • Much has been said during the past two years and considerable action taken toward the building of an athletic stadium. Under the old P.W.A. work was actually started on the project behind the artillery stables, but petered out as did many such projects all over the country. At present federal funds are again being asked to continue the work. It is true that Auburn could use a good stadium of this sort. But the question arises as to which is more needed at Auburn— a student union building or a stadium. We believe the former to be by far the more desired need at the present time. The initiative for the stadium is being taken largely by local business men for obvious reasons. This group has been instrumental in many ways in the growth of Auburn. Another group reported to be working for Auburn's betterment is the Alumni Association. But one wonders what this very loyal body has actually done for Auburn during the past several years. Actually they have done nothing. No one doubts but what they are anxious to see Auburn become a bigger and better school, but when definite action is required the buck is passed to so many hands that it is finally lost track of and the issue goes out like a light. True, Auburn is indebted to the Alumni for the gymnasium now used and named in their honor. But that was long ago, and the time is now at hand for them to get together and map out plans for an Auburn Auditorium, a structure that will be a credit to the institution. Auburn vs. Alabama Again this year the matter is brought up concerning the possibility of resuming athletic relations between Auburn and Alabama. It is the opinion held by many here that the situation which exists today, between the two schools has gone far enough. Anybody will admit that it is a bit childish and that there is no real reason why Auburn and Alabama should not meet together in football. Naturally, there is a keen rivalry existing, but this should be all the more reason for athletic relations. Such makes for sport in its highest form. Georgia plays Tech every year which serves to only cement more strongly the friendly and understanding relations between the two colleges. In like manner would a football game between Auburn and Alabama go far toward smoothing out some of the misunderstandings held by each school against the other. Athletic relations were broken many years ago, and there is no reason to believe today that the same causes exist that existed at that time. The trouble is mostly just an idea or feeling that continued from year to year without any real excuse for its being. Last fall the American Legion attempted to force the two schools into a game by a legislative act. This, of course, is the poorest of all ways to solve the problem. In fact it never will be solved by force, but instead by common sense. We believe that Auburn is anxious and ready to resume athletic relations with her sister school Alabama, that the time is now at hand when definite action either one way or the other should be taken. "Well, I'll Swear" The two recently chosen cheerleaders probably did a little silent swearing when they discovered to their disappointment that they would have to pay all costs to football games. It ,was taken for granted by the two, that should they get the job, they would naturally be given at least a free pass to the games by the Athletic Committee. • But, no such soap. They will have to cut up and out for nothing at all but their own enjoyment. After all it would look a bit silly for the Auburn cheering section at a football game to be without cheerleaders. Only the head cheerleader we have learned, receives his expenses paid to the games, the other three make out the best way they can. This seems a bit unfair when it is considered that ^he cheerleaders contribute as much toward excitement of a football game as does the band, all members which get their transportation and admission to the games paid in compensation for their work. It seems only fair that all cheerleaders should receive the same compensation. It would be but a small added cost to the Athletic Committee and would go far toward bringing the Auburn cheering section up to par with other colleges. Auburn's cheerleading quartet has been practicing since the last game in an effort to develop several original stunts to be performed at future games. All acts require that each of the four does his part. But it has been learned that one of the cheerleaders will be unable to make the remaining football games because of financial reasons. Naturally, this is going to throw a wrench into what promises to be the first real cheerleading group that Auburn has had for several years. From the Copy Basket A large number of the freshmen that enter college have no definite conception of —as it is generally termed—"what it is all about." True, you are entering a new environment but you must either make out your schedule of procedure and follow it as near as possible or go about your college career in a hit or miss manner. In a lecture to.one of his freshman classes last year, the professor dropped the point that college men have three suits of college life from which to choose their trump— Spades, Hearts, and Clubs. The suit of spades includes conscientious labor upon scholastic work. It is the general understanding that one comes to college to prepare himself for his life's work, faithful digging will accomplish this task. Campus activities, justly considered, are included to their rightful degree. The suit of hearts—better perhaps, romance— may be chosen as the trump card in one's attending college. But this institution is not blessed with equal numbers of the two sexes. Therefore this question should not command a serious thought, although a number may waste considerable time before they stop to think.. The last suit is the one of clubs which may dazzle some of the freshmen beyond their wits—nay, common rat-sense. There is no doubt that clubs and lodges, in their right position, are almost indispensible to the college. They afford the social contacts, recreation, and general help that is essential. By all means consider this last suit but not to the extreme. ROUND AND ROUND By Floyd Hurt Youth is the time to study wisdom; old age is the time to practice it.—Rousseau.

Langdon Hall with all it's sentiment and years of service has filled it's place as a college auditorium. The inadequacy of auditorium space is one of the most outstanding weaknesses of the Auburn campus at present. But relief of this situation is not impossible. In his message to the Auburn Alumni in the summer Alumnus, Maurice I Bloch, president of the Alumni Association, points out that forty per cent of the dues of the members of the Alumni Association are set aside to be used "for any need of Auburn for which funds are not available." President Block mentions something about the funds possibly being used for scholarships or maybe a building if membership grows enough to warrant such an ambitious project. Why should not the association set as a goal an auditorium for Auburn? Scholarships are fine for students and for the school itself, but the enrollment of Auburn is such now that thought should be given to something beside increase of enrollment and the bringing of more students here until something is done to accommodate those students who are already attending Auburn. With the number of years Auburn has been turning out graduates, the Alumni Association should be able with a concentrated drive raise enough money to build for Auburn an auditorium worthy of the size school she has become during the past several years. Let's see Auburn grow from the ground up. Care must be taken not to let the institution get too top heavy. • * * * * "Deacon" had a good story about the opening dances which he refused to tell for quite a while. Finally he decided it was too good to keep so he thought he would share it with some of his friends. And it got around. It seemed that one of the campus playboys brought his date to the dance on Saturday night and sent her up her side. When he started up he encountered several people desiring to talk things over. Then all of a sudden he was grabbed by the arm and whisked out of the gym and away on some important mission. ' Around eleven he returned and decided to take on a little dancing. Imagine the happy feeling he had when he remembered he had forgotten to' meet his date at the top of the landing. "Deacon" happened to be on hand and saw the forlorn miss standing at the door without an escort, and having met her before, asked her to dance. "Deacon" is not the kind of fellow to be quoted, but he said it was a menacing look the lady gave her date when he came prancing up for a dance. Think how the forgetful felt. * * * * One of "Deacon's" favorite tales has to do with some of the folk back home. There are a couple of families, the Upjohns living at the top of a hill and the Downjohns living at the bottom. There had never been much friendliness lost between the two, but everything the Downjohns had to say about the Upjohns they said in the bosom of the family, because they knew if the Upjohns got wind of anything they would stuff leaves in the waterpipe leading from the spring down the hill and there would be no water for Junior's bath. When Mary Upjohn was to-be-married, Mrs. Downjohn was invited to the wedding. She knew this was just a slap in the face because Mary was going to marry the high school principal who had jilted Mrs. Down-john's favorite daughter. Mr. and Mrs. Downjohn discussed the thing over and over and finally decided the only thing for her to do was go to the wedding. So she bought a double boiler and wrapped it up all nice in tissue paper and started off up the hill. You should h*ear "Deacon" tell about Mrs. Downjohn climbing up the hill with a big bundle under her arm and a purple morning glory in her hat. She bustled up to the front door and since she thought she was late, pushed on in the house. The guests were all lined around the wall waiting. But no Bridegroom. This gave Ma Downjohn a lot of satisfaction but she went over and patted red eyed Mary on the back and kind of mothered her up. Just about this time Mrs. Upjohn saw the 'bridegroom coming up the hill. She wanted to make a big impression on her future son-in-law, so she began herding all her guests out the back door. Only "Deacon" can tell you how Mrs. Downjohn liked this herding business. She jerked around, gave a flip of her head to Mrs. Upjohn and walked back into the living room. Mrs. Upjohn was trying to get the crowd out the back door and around the house to keep the bridegroom from thinking she had to wait on him. But Ma Downjohn balked. This was the kind of A warning to you guys going to New Orleans—hold your hats. * * * * * * * * * * LIFE Dance Glance Aster Pastor Twins Dins * * * * * * * * * * She had on one of those Biblical dresses—low and behold. * * * * * * * * * * The sale of convocation books and campus passes reached a new high this fall.

Auburn's First Football Game In Which Dr. Petrie Again Writes For The Plainsman, This Time Telling Of Auburn's First Game, Which Happened To Be Against The Georgia Bulldogs In Atlanta In he fall of 1891 we undertook to bring out of the confusion of mass football at Auburn. All that fall we practiced on the old drill ground back of the main college building, or, as we should now say, between Sam-ford Hall and the Gymnasium. The University of Virginia and the University of North Carolina had already introduced a modification of the English Rugby game. I 'made a trip to the University of Virginia, my Alma Mater, and got all the fine points that I could get from their famous player Addison Greenway and from H. S. Hedges, who was an old friend of mine and was playing on their team. At the University of Georgia they were beginning to play the regular game under the leadership of my friend, Dr. Charles Herty. Later in the season, as we both began to feel that we were learning the game, a match was arranged between our two teams. The date was set for February the 22nd, 1892, and Atlanta was the natural meeting point. At Auburn we strained our financial resources and bought uniforms for the team, but we used them very seldom in our practice. We were trying to keep them clean for the great game with Georgia. Shortly before the game I visited Athens to make some final arrangements. I shall never forget the cordial welcome given me there. The men who were in charge insisted that I should come out and see their team practice. I protested that it might not be fair for me to do so, but they overruled me. Their team seemed to me to play beautifully, and I returned to Auburn filled with admiration for their skill and good sportsmanship. ' A football game was then quite a novelty to the people in Atlanta. We were very uncertain as to what the attendance would be. The newspapers gave us good .publicity, and we wrote articles for them explaining how the game was played and giving them personal points about the individual players. When the time came, the Georgia boys and their friends arrived on a special train. We also had a train of our own consisting of two coaches. One was filled with boys from Starke's School in Montgomery, who were eager to see the game, and the other with our team and their friends. Both trains were decorated with college colors. The famous old Kimball house was headquarters for both teams. The Georgia boys naturally felt at home and made the whole place ring with "Rah! Rah! Georgia!". It was wonderfully effective. I still think it the finest college yell in the world. We replied with: "Rah rah, ree Rah rah ree Alabama A. M. C." chance she had been waiting for. A few hot words followed and she dived in the corner and began digging in the pile of tissue paper. She found her double boiler and pulled out down the hill. Since then the Downjohns have dug a well because the pipe has been stuffed with leaves ever since. Leave it to "Deacon" to get the low down. The A. M. C. stood for Agricultural and Mechanical College, which was then the name of our institution. Somehow we couldn't get much punch in it. Their yell was a war cry. Ours sounded like a mild announcement. Our team went out to the grounds on a street car. The Georgia team had a "tally-ho". If you don't know what a "tally-ho" is, imagine a beautiful, long, open bus-like affair drawn, if I remember correctly, by four fine horses and brilliantly decorated with the college colors. It certainly had style. The day was dark and rainy, and we were very anxious to see what the attendance would be. When we got to the park one glance at the stands made us happy. They were filled. The newspapers stated that there were five thousand present, but I think this was an over-estimate. 1 The play began and so did the rain. Those beautiful new uniforms were quickly a mass of mud. But who cared? The players did not know it was raining and those in the stands soon got so excited that they forgot it. Some of the finer points of the Georgia play got lost in the mud, and man for man the teams were well matched. As I look back on it after all these years the things that stand out in my mind are the remarkable punting of our fullback Barnwell, the elusive running of Dutch Dor-sey, and the cool generalship of our captain Frank Lupton. But, as every football man knows, these could not have materialized if our line had not held. Auburn lines have long been famous. That was our first one and it set a fine example for those that came later. The referee, who was an old Princeton man, said after the game that "the blocking of the Georgia team was beautiful, but the Auburn men played more like a Yale or a Princeton team". Auburn won by the score of ten to zero, but the teams were more evenly matched than the score would indicate, and the result was in doubt up to the end. I have had many happy moments, but not often, if ever, have I been as happy as I was when that game was over. Many staid and perfectly sober citizens in the grandstand acted like crazy youngsters. One charming and gentle lady from Auburn in her excitement broke her parasol over the head and shoulders of a gentleman in front of her whom she had never seen before. Two strange men in their enthusiasm after the game grabbed our big center and before anyone could stop them hustled him into their buggy, squeezed him in between them, all muddy as he was, and drove back to the Kimball House shouting: "Rah Rah Ree Alabama A. B. C." The old Kimball House seemed much more home-like after our victory. The Georgia boys took their defeat like good sports. The two teams mingled freely in the great hotel lobby. The friendly feeling between the two institutions which was so manifest then has continued to this day. Much of it I tribute to the influence of Dr. Charles Herty, who was then and for many years afterwards the guiding spirit in athletics at the University of Georgia.

It is a column of personal comment, and is not to be read as an expression of our editorial policy. * * * * ' . ONCE UPON A TIME. Yes, there was a time when Auburn did not have a dining place or theatre to boast of. Not so today! To date, we have three of the most modern and well appointed cafes to be found anywhere, and a theatre that is equal to most and better than many in places the size of the Village of the Plains. Do the students here realize the improvement of their lot over that of the students of the past? To all outward appearances the answer is a loud "NO". These appearances are manifest in the general conduct of Mr. Average Student while enjoying the above mentioned establishments have to offer. At the cafes, burned napery and scarred or carved furnishings are the everyday "ear marks" that students use them. It seems increditable to mention that cutlery and dishes are no longer taken as souvenirs, but rather with an eye to the future. While visiting in a fellow student's room the other night he showed me an almost complete set of cutlery and with a certain pride. He added, "one never knows when such might come in handy." At the theatre the same traits are demonstrated. Loud and even profane comments are liable to be heard at any time during the performance. Then there is the fellow who must needs be told that smoking is not allowed in the theatre because of fire. Those are the more potent illuses of the only show in Auburn. Removal of seat covers and cutting the cushions with knives seem to be accepted as the things to do. Such things caused a man, who is supposed to know, to say the average of the Auburn Student's I.Q. is much below that of the local high school. I don't know, but what's the matter fellows—don't we appreciate the improvements as they come to us? * * * * FROM A VERY RELIABLE SOURCE. Auburn co-eds are becoming more worldly. They no longer buy their smokes by the package but rather cigars—one at a time. Ask the faculty, they should know. * * * * SPEAKING OF THE THEATRE. We are about to see what I thought the best musical show yet, Gracie Allen and George give it t h a t . . . you know. Gracie Allen and George Burns suffered such an attack of homesickness for vaudeville during the production of the Paramount comedy, "The Big Broadcast of 1936" which will be at the Tiger over the weekend, that they practiced their old dance routines between scenes of the picture. The "Big Broadcast of 1936", which presents the largest array of stars yet, centers around the humorous hair-raising adventures of two radio performers whom air wave fans think one person. The story follows the lives of the two boys through the episode of meeting a-beautiful young countess who kidnaps them until she can decide wfiich of them to marry. Their efforts to escape, in which they unwittingly take part in an international broadcasting contest, forms one of the hilarious sequences of the comedy. Ethel Merman goes into action with the song, "It's the Animal in Me". * * * * STAN SAYS.

The major upset was the tying of Alabama by Howard. After last year's record the Red Raiders were expected to run roughshod over the comparatively weak Howard eleven, which proves that records don't mean everything. The highest score of the week-end was made by Ole Mississippi when they pushed the Memphis Teachers all over the lot to amass 92 points while the Teachers had to be content with an immense 0 on the scoreboard. Vanderbilt, rated as a strong team, had difficulty in defeating Mississippi State 14-9. However, both teams showed plenty of power and should be sore spots in any team's schedule. Rice and L- S. U. had a great battle which ended up with L. S. U. on the short end of a 10-7 score. Rice is rated as one of the strongest teams in the country and have championship possibilities.

Tryouts for the freshman tank team were concluded Wednesday, October 2, at the Alumni Gymnasium pool and Coach Gordan McKinney picked the team that will represent Auburn at the freshman swimming meets this year. Twelve men made the grade out of thirty-five applicants that reported for practice on Monday and Tuesday. This year's frosh team, according to Coach McKinney, should be the best in Auburn's history. All of the applicants swam against time and the marks made by this year's squad were far better than any previous freshman group. Those that have been chosen as members of the tank squad are: Allen Wingo, Jack Monger, Cecil Conner, Jim Lyons, Carl Chambers, Bud Garcia, Alvin Vogtle, Charles Chitty, Donald McCollough, R. W. O'Donnell, Worth McQue, and Allen Babcock. According to Coach McKinney, Allen Wingo and Jack Monger are two of tne brightest prospects on the squad. Swimming the 50 yard free style, Wingo clipped it off in 28 seconds, while Monger was a second behind with 29. Both of these men made unusually good time for preseason swimming. McCollough and O'Donnell performed well in the backstroke while Babcock gave a good performance in the breaststroke. McQue and Chambers, also a free styler, will do the diving for the frosh tank team. The other men mentioned will swim in the free style events. Of course the team is rather ragged at present but with plenty of hard practice, they will soon round into tip-top shape.

The forewall is one of the best in the country, but the backs lack polish. However, the team should make a creditable showing this year. Florida came out on the long end of a 34-0 score when they met Stetson last week. The high-light of the game came when Duke Warren intercepted a pass and ran 87 yards for a touchdown. The Tennessee-Southwestern game proved to be a dull affair with Tennessee emerging victorious 20-0. The only thrill came when Sam Sharpe ran 48 yards through the Southwestern team for a tally. Tulane exhibited a strong attack when they ran V. M. I. ragged to win 44-0. How they will fare against the Conference teams remains to be seen. Kentucky's gridders accredited themselves honorably as the defeated Xavier 21-7 in a rather dull game.

Cross-country is now well under way with a large squad practicing daily for the forthcoming meet with Georgia Tech on Saturday, October 26th. The Tech harriers are reputed to be in fine condition and will undoubtedly furnish the Auburn team with plenty of competition. A large crowd is expected to attend the meet, which will be held in Auburn. Coach Hutsell is looking forward to a great deal of support from the student body. The squad is composed of 15 members— Bill Emery, who is captain of the team, Powers, Chandler, Stinson, Cothran, Steppe, Lee, Chambers, Dunning, Oates, Barlow, Gresham, Morris, Arruza, and Duncan. Three of the greatest distance runners known in the history of Auburn track teams—Captain Carl Pihl, Lin-wood Funchess, and Ed Gait—are lost to the team this year as they graduated last June. These three men were the backbone of last year's team and will be sorely missed this season. At present, only 'two meets have been arranged, but others are being considered. Besides Georgia Tech, the team will meet the University of Florida in Gainsville on November 16th.

POLO PLAYERS OF LAST YEAR GIVEN ATHLETIC AWARDS With Exception Of Few Men Team This Year Will Have Many Experienced Players Patronize Plainsman advertisers. After the smoke of the battle with the Panthers Friday night had cleared away, the Tigers could look back over their performance in Cramton Bowl with the satisfaction of knowing that they had made a great beginning of their murderous schedule. Coach Meagher's team showed power and promise in every department. His team struck fast and hard in the early part of the game. The game had only started before two touchdowns had been scored from six plays. After the Tiger mentor had removed the entire line with the exception of Gilbert and inserted Hitchcock into the backfield, the team still carried on to show that the reserve strength was good. Hitchcock during his stay in the game branded himself as the likely answer to Auburn's -need of a triple-threat in the backfield. This brother of Auburn's famous backfield coach starred in running plays and punting and the way he returned punts would gladden the heart of any coach. Pass' defense and offense received a good test. Of the eleven passes attempted by the Panthers only three were completed for a total of thirty yards. This was remarkable when it is considered that McKay, one of the best backs of the Dixie Conference, was doing the tossing. Pass offense showed to advantage as the Panthers had nearly the same back-field as they had last year to break up Auburn's passing attempts. The line was slow in charging in sometimes and as a,consequence the offense would bog down. On the whole the blocking was good for so early in the season. Tipper, Hitchcock, Karam, and Kilgore showed power in running plays. Auburn did .not show its real strength Friday night. With so many changes being made in the lineup at different times during the progress of the game, this naturally took away balance and coordination. The Tigers should be a power in Southeastern football circles toward the end of the season. * * * The campus is dotted now with frat football groups. This is always an interesting activity for students looking for recreation at this time of the year. Soon a schedule will be issued and nearly every afternoon will see a merry ba'ttle waged. To facilitate a satisfactory manner of handling the writeups for these games, it is requested that a reporter be selected for each team. He can Letters were awarded yesterday to seven polo players of last season's team. They are Elwood Rouse, captain, T. W. Briggs, C. H. Strong, B. N. Ivey, R. J. Chandler, W. H. Dexter, and C. L.

In addition to these experienced men there are a few new students who are expected to go out for the squad this year. Last year Captain Gunby, coach of the team, went with the players on a tour, playing Ohio State and the University of Missouri. Captain Klepinger is to coach the team this year.

WANTED: SOME GOOD USED FURNITURE BY NEWLY ARRIVED FAMILY. INQUIRE PLAINS-MAN OFFICE. Relations Began in 1906 When Tigers Snowed Green Wave Under With Score Of 3 3 To 0 ; Tulane Has Not Lost Game To Southern Team Since 1933 W h e n Defeated By Auburn Auburn and Tulane have been playing football with each other for 29 years, playing 15 games in that time. During this span of time Auburn has won six games, lost seven, and two affairs ended in a deadlock. It seems that the Tigers have been a "jinx" team for the Green Wave, dating back to 1926. It's not exactly a superstition either; it is based on facts. Auburn meets Tulane in New Orleans Saturday, in the big Southeastern Conference game of the week, and here's a few facts to back up the "jinx" bug-a-boo. It all started in 1926 when Tulane invited Auburn to play in the dedication of its new stadium. Tulane was a heavy favorite but the Plainsmen held the Greenbacks well and ruined the dedication ceremony by getting a safety in the third period. The game ended Auburn 2, Tulane 0. In 1927, Auburn was able to tie Tulane, 6-6, in New Orleans, Callahan scampering 85 yards to score the tally for the Tigers. Auburn had had a bad season that year and this tie with Tulane was considered a moral victory. Tulane stated one of the greatest of all football victory records back in October, 1928—a record of not losing a game to a Southern team— and that march continued unbroken right down to October, 1932. Auburn finally broke that record. Jimmy Hitchcock and his mates ruined it with a smashing 19-7 victory. In 1933, Tulane, after a wobbly start, beat Maryland and Georgia Tech and only had Auburn between it and the big Colgate game, which they wanted to enter with a clean slate. Auburn had lost to Georgia Tech and George Washington. However the Tigers upset the Green Wave, winning, 13-7, with Kimbrell starring. Tulane hasn't lost a game to a Southern team since that defeat at the hands of Auburn in October, 1933. All Auburn fans are hoping that the Tigers will duplicate their performance in the '32 game this Saturday. The complete records of the rivalry of the two teams follows: 1906 1921 1922 1923 1924 1925 1927 1928 1929 1930 1931 1932 1933 1934 Auburn 33 14 19 6 6 0 6 12 0 0 0 ia 13 0 Tulane 0 0 0 6 14 13 6 13 53 21 27 7 7 13* «_ Flowers for all Occasions KING'S NURSERY Phone 695-J OPELIKA, ALABAMA HAGEDORN'S DEPARTMENT STORE DRY GOODS LADIES' READY-TO-WEAR LADIES' A N D CHILDRENS' SHOES DRAPERIES — CURTAINS — CARPETS A Most Complete Gents' Furnishing Department Opelika, Alabama Spend Wisely-Save Regularly Insuring Is Saving Money is w i s e l y spent when it is invested in INSURANCE.

Big Sam McCrosky will probably start at guard instead of Sivell, the sophomore who took his place in the opening game against Birmingham- Southern. With the exception of the changes at guard and tackle the lineup will probably be the same that faced the Panthers last Friday night . at the opening whistle. Strange and Captain Mutt Morris will start at the end positions. Strange was the target for most of Hitchcock's passes in the Panther game and came through in great style. Morris scored one of Auburn's touchdowns on an end-around play and stood out in his line play. Paterson's play was not up to standard, but has was just recouper-ating from an injury and should be in good condition for the Green Wave. Gilbert's play'at center on defense and offense placed him as the outstanding lineman of either team. Hitchcock will receive his first test of conference competition against the Greenies. His play in the Panther game was sensational at times. Karam, Hitchcock, Tipper, and Kil-gore gave the Tigers strength in running plays and compare equally as well as the fast backs of Tulane.

T. Ivey, in his talk to the International Relations Club last Tuesday night, stated that war between Ethiopia and Italy is inevitable. Professor Ivey's subject was "The League of Nations in the Crisis with Abyssinia". "The situation in Europe today is the result of a series of miscalculations. The condition is very similar to the condition which existed prior to 1914." Some of these miscalculations as Professor Ivey calls them are: The League of Nations is taking a prominent part in an International controversy for the first time since its formation, France has joined England in a kind of treaty, England misjudged the Italians military and naval strength, and as conditions are now, the attacking nation will lose in the end. The League of Nations is now composed of 59 countries, but there are only four great nations in the League. These great nations are: England, France, Russia, and Italy. Japan's withdrawal from the League has just become effective. "The sucdess or failure of the League of Nations as a means of arbitrating national disputes probably hinges on the results of the Italo- Ethiopian question," stated Professor Ivey.

Large Crowd Attends Tulane Mass Meeting Led by the band from Langdon Hall to the railway station, an enthusiastic delegation of several hundred students staged a mammoth demonstration as a send-off for the football team departing for New Orleans. Bill McTyiere and his corps of cheerleaders were on hand to aid the band in giving the team and coaching staff an indication of just how hard the folks back home' will be pulling for them when they go up against the strong Tulane Greenies tomorrow in the Louisiana city. Between yells the band played several inspiring numbers, while the crowd that remained at the station from 7:15 until the train left the station kept up a continuous clamor that left no doubt in the minds of Coach Meagher and his men as to the backing they will receive from the student body in either victory or defeat. Although obviously pleased at the display of pep and enthusiasm by those participating in the demonstration last night, McTyiere was still dissatisfied with the number of students who turned out for the occas-sion. "There is no reason why every member of the student body should not have been at the depot to give the team a rousing farewell," he RAYON UNIT WILL BE CONSTRUCTED HERE SAYS CAMP Necessary Parts For Unit Have Been Gathered For Many Years By Textile Professors FRANKE TO BE SPEAKER AT FIRST O.

The Auburn textile school will soon be in a position to manufacture rayon yarn as well as other yarns. For the past several years the heads of the various textile departments have been amassing the many machined parts and fixtures necessary for the building of a small rayon manufacturing unit. Several business houses have done their part toward making the -project a reality by donating whatever materials they had that would be useful to the textile faculty. In an interview with a Plainsman reporter, Prof. W. C. Camp, head of the textile department, said: "The addition of a rayon manufacturing unit to our machinery should be of great educational value to textile students. It should also be a source of interest to others outside of the school on account of the remarkable process involved. It should be understood that rayon is the only fibre that has been successfully made by man. All the other cloths, wool, cotton, silk, etc., are already fibre in the raw state." According to Prof. Camp, assembly will begin within'a few days, and the entire unit will be ready for operation about the middle of November. Traces Of Inland Sea Discovered By Prof. • Northampton, Mass. (NSFA) — Smith College students have this summer traced the boundaries of a sea that was once in the interior of the United States. This work was carried on during a geology field trip to western South Dakota and eastern Wyoming directed by Professor Howard A Meyerhoff. By ferreting organisms out of the strata, they have uncovered information concerning the inundation in the Cambrian period of geologic time, linking the shallow waters which covered the Great Plains with a contemporaneous sea spreading from the Great Lakes to the Gulf of Mex- ROTC NON-COMS APPOINTED FOR ENGINEERS' UNIT (Continued from page 1) geants E.
