W. P. A. Hall, Merritt Says
By HOWARD WORKMAN
At 4 o'clock today George Olsen
lifted his baton to begin his orches­tra's
interpretation of "Music of To­morrow"
and open the first dance of
the Senior Pinal Dances at the new
W. P. A. Hall. Numbers of visiting
girls have already arrived for the
dances and many more are expected
by the Social Committee from the
large number of acceptances receiv­ed.
Blue Key, national honorary so­ciety
sponsoring the first dance, has
planned an elaborate program for
tapping the men elected to member­ship
last night.
The Grand March of the dances
will take place at the dance tonight,
which begins at 9 o'clock, and will
be led by Molly Brasfield, of Demop-olis,
and Charlie Lawrence, of Bir­mingham,
president of the Senior
Class. The tomorrow morning dance
beginning at 11- o'clock is sponsored
by the Interfraternity Council and
the afternoon dance beginning at 4
o'clock has been bought by the Buc­caneers,
a freshman society. The
tomorrow night dance beginning at
8:30 o'clock has not been taken by
any organization.
4 Frats Have Parties
In giving final instructions for
the care of visiting, girls, Vernon
Merritt, chairman of the Social Com­mittee,
states that all girls must go
to the office of Miss Zoe Dobbs,
dean of women, on arriving in town.
At that office the girls will be assign­ed
to one of the four fraternities,
Delta Sigma Phi, S. A. E., T. U. O.
and Phi Kappa Tau, where house
parties are being held. "No girls will
be allowed to stay in private homes",
stated Merritt. The same rules that
applied to the Mid-term Dances are
being used for the current set of
dances.

the Social Committee to scout the

Dozier Will Address
Textiles Tonight, 7:30
George L. Dozier, of the Sandoz
Chemical Company, will give a talk
to the Textile Department Friday
night, April 23, at 7:30. The subject
of his talk will be "Sulfonation of Oils
and their use in the Textile Industry",
a subject which is very pertinent to
the study being conducted within the
classes. His address will be of such a
nature that it should prove to be of
general interest to the public.
Mr. Dozier is a graduate of Clem-son
College, and since that time has
received extensive experience in spe­cific
and in general relation to the
subject of his talk which is to be given
here. He has also worked in the Union
Bleachery in Greenville, South Caro­lina.
On Monday night at 7:30, T. D.
Hayward will talk to the Textile De­partment.
He is General Manager of
the Wool Division of Swift and Com­pany,
with his offices in Philadelphia,
Pennsylvania. Both of these talks are
under the sponsorship of the local
chapter of Phi Psi, national honorary
Textile Fraternity.
Alan B. Jacobs Is
Picked To Enter
Paris Art Finals
Alan B. Jacobs, instructor in Archi­tecture,
was selected yesterday by a
jury of prominent architects of New
York City to participate in the final
Paris Prize Competition of this year.
Mr. Jacobs was one of a few se­lected
from over 100 candidates
throughout America competing for the
1st Preliminary exercise sometime in
January, which made him eligible for
the 2nd Preliminary held early this
month.
The award at this time means that
he will compete in the final competi­tion
for the Paris Prize held in New
York City May 24-27, with all expenses
paid.
For this final competition five en­trants
were selected yesterday from
the 2nd Preliminary and from these
five, one will be awarded the Annual
Paris Prize, which calls for European
study of 30 months, expenses paid to
and from Paris and a stipend of $3000
for the 30 months.
It is upon rare occasion that a per­son
can place on this final competi­tion,
as the candidates seeking this
foremost architectural honor of the
United States are many and represent
the best architectural talent in the
country up to the age of 27.

"Great Katherine" Will Climax
Season Of Successful Plays
Produced by Auburn Players
By FRANKLYN WARD
Marking a fitting climax to a very
successful season, the swiftly moving
farce, "Great Katherine", written by
the noted English author, George Ber­nard
Shaw, will be presented by the
Auburn Players at eight o'clock Mon­day
evening in Langdon Hall.
The play though fairly old still
gains popularity throughout this na­tion
and abroad. It has played for
weeks in some of the best known
theatres of these lands. It has been
said that this is one of the best of
Shaw's comedies.
The four scenes of the play lie with­in
the wafls of the Imperial Winter
Palace in what was then (1776) St.
Petersburgh, Russia. The action be­gins
with the encounter of an adven­turous
young British Captain (Arthur
Elsberry) fresh from the Colonial
Wars in America, and Patiomkin,
Prime Minister of Russia (W. D.
Hall), who is at the time under the
intoxicating influences of vodka.
Complications Arise
Following the drunk scene, and in
his search for an audience with Kath­erine
the Great (Betty Showalter),
the captain is forcibly injected into
the empress' royal bedchamber. The
resulting humorous incidents and the
further complications which arise up­on
the unfortunate arrival of the cap­tain's
fiancee (Carolyn Jones) make
a most interesting and rib-splitting
comedy.
The above mentioned participants
in the play are most aptly supported
by the following: Miss Caroline Law-son
as the charming niece of the prime
minister; Miss Amy Drake, Princess
Dashoff; Burton Brooks, Naryshkin;
Paul Duggar McCormick, Russian
sergeant; John Redmond, Philip Har-tung,
Guards of the Palace; and Olga
Snead, Bessie Ruth Smyer, Ladies of
the Court, in waiting to the Empress.
The popular prices which were set
earlier in the season will continue for
adults and children; students present­ing
their student activity books at the
door will be admitted without charge.
Editor, The Auburn Plainsman:
This letter won't get the headlines
that your story about the Executive
cabinet in the Wednesday's issue re­ceived;
it has no pictures; it is not
written to fill up a dull issue, but it
will fry to correct several grave mis­statements
and innuendoes supplied to
you by your typically inaccurate,
anonymous source. I hope you have
the decency to print it on the front
page.
In the first place Sarver, who al­ready
has a pass, was never at the
meeting. Consequently, it would have
been difficult for him to have "stalked
out".
Secondly, the vote was unanimous.
In fact, the motion was seconded by
Vann, who, according to you, voted
against it.
to give passes for the final dances to
the cabinet members providing the
mid-term dances were a financial suc­cess.
In case you doubt their success,
ask Merritt to show you the report he
submitted to the cabinet.
If you don't believe there should be
any passes given to the dances, what
justification have you for the fact
that the Plainsman staff gets one?
Certainly it would seem that your sal­ary
of approximately sixty dollars a
month is sufficient recompense for
your arduous duties as editor, duties
which you neglect when you print such
libelous articles as the one in the Wed­nesday
issue.
The executive cabinet is the only
service organization on the campus
that gets no compensation for its ser­vices.
Perhaps you would like to know

Open House Of
Textile Students
The Plainsman is glad tp present communications from the other angle
of the "free pass" controversy.
The editor acknowledges partial personal error in saying that the vote
was 7 to 2, but if one reads Vann's statement he may see how this was
possible. Sarver's statement to the effect that he came to the place of
meeting and left does not bear out Cabinet statement that he was never
there. Merritt's statement should be accepted as proof that he did not
promise the Cabinet passes. The money involved, although the amount
was misquoted in Wednesday's paper, does not alter the issue—the Cabi­net
did vote itself free tickets. This one fact alone gave The Plainsman
right to give the story to the student body.
Welden acted in vice-presidential capacity in the matter, not as presi­dent
elect.
Backed by statements in its possession, The Plainsman corrects errors
but does not retract its story.—The Editor.
The following statements were handed to The Plainsman to be used
to justify the story concerning the Cabinet action of voting itself dance
passes. These statements are signed %y the writers:
"I went by the meeting place and left when I definitely learned the
purpose of the meeting as I did not care to stay. The Cabinet knew that
I have always opposed its voting tickets from the Social Committee under
its present set-up The Administration does not in any way insure fi­nancial
success to this committee and I do not believe that under, such
conditions the Cabinet has any Authority over the Committee's expendi­tures.
"Rules governing the behavior of students attending dances is a matter
of concern for the Cabinet and should always remain so. The financial
condition of the Committee should not be ruled upon until student funds
are set aside for this purpose."—Signed: Joe Sarver, Cabinet President.
"When questioned by the Editor of the Plainsman on the action taken
by the Cabinet in its recent meeting, I told him that Mr. Dunning and I
presented the argument against voting free tickets. This information
was misleading and he inferred that the vote was 7-2. Actually, the vote
was unanimous."—Signed: Jack Vann, Cabinet member.
"I deny the statement made concerning my promises to give the Execu­tive
Cabinet passes to the dances. I believe the majority of the Cabinet
members knew this. As the Social Committee fund is not a student fund,
it seems just a bit out of the Cabinet's jurisdiction to take such action."
—Signed: Vernon Merritt, Chairman of the Social Committee.
By SON THOMAS
Approximately 1000 people from 8
states were present for the second
Annual Open House of the School of
Textile Engineering last night. The
show Was sponsored by the local chap­ter
of Phi Psi, national honorary so­ciety
for textile engineers, and was
made possible through the joint co­operation
of that body, the textile
faculty, and the entire student body
of the Textile Department.
The general theme, "From bale to
finished product", was illustrated dur­ing
the show. The visitors were first
carried to the "opening" room where
raw cotton was broken from the bales
and started on its long journey of
processing. All subsequent processes,
carding, drafting, spinning, winding,
twisting, warping, weaving, dyeing,
starching, and finishing were fully ex­plained
and demonstrated by student
guides and operators.
Unique features of the show were—
a display of garments starched with
potato starch, a product which prom­ises
to be a valuable commercial com­pound
upon further research; a like­ness
of Dr. L. N. Duncan, president
of Auburn, being woven into a large
(Continued on Page 4)

Tigers Ready To Face Pan­thers
In First Home Meet Of
Year Tomorrow At 2 O'clock
Thirdly, your statement that the
value of the tickets is a hundred dol­lars
is a shining example of the ac­curacy
of the article. If the entire
cabinet bought a ticket to the whole
set of dances, the value would be only
eighty dollars. If you had said that
the value was a nickle, you would have
been about seventy dollars or seven
and a half times closer to the correct
amount. Actually the value of the
tickets is about fifteen dollars. This
value was determined after it was
found that of the ten people on the
cabinet without passes, one is recover­ing
from an operation and cannot
dance; three will be working for the
social committee; three of the remain­ing
six could not attend any dance,
and the other three could only attend
one or two dances of the set. Adding
up the cash that the social committee
would have gotten from the members
of the cabinet will amount to about
fifteen dollars. If this set of dances
is made a failure by that fifteen dol­lars,
I will personally pay it back to
the social committee.
Another interesting fact, not pub­lished,
was the promise of Vernon
Merritt, made to the cabinet last fall,
what these services are? Here are a
few: the cabinet conducted the inter-mural
non-fraternity sports program;
the cabinet investigated and changed
the old dance regulations; the cabinet
supervised the campus elections; the
cabinet supports the glee club, the de­bating
club, and the dramatic society.
Also the cabinet does many other
things of minor importance such as
publish the Rat Bible; get out the
graduating invitations, . and enlarge
and finance the student center.
It seems only fair that the cabinet
be awarded something. What better
compensation could be found than that
which does not cost the student body
an extra penny?
In conclusion I wish to say that I
hope you will accept this letter in the
same friendly spirit of constructive
criticism that was evident in your
article Wednesday.
Sincerely, TOM POWELL,
A Senior Cabinet Member.
N O T I C E !
The annual Muster and Inspection
of Reserve units will be held on April
30 in Montgomery. All Reserve Of­ficers
are urged to attend.
The Tiger track and field team will
meet an old rival, Birmingham-South­ern,
on Drake Field tomorrow at 2:00
P. M. The Plainsmen hope to open a
three-meet home schedule with a vic­tory
over their traditional Panther
rivals.
The Tiger cinder-burners wilt op­pose
the Florida Gators here on May
1 and will clash with the strong
Georgia Tech trackmen on May 8.
With Alternate Capt. Charlie Lawr­ence,
ace sprint man, and Aubrey
Garrison, dependable broad jumper,
ready for first-string service the squad
will be in excellent condition for the
annual track classic with Southern.
Although the Panthers were swamp­ed
last year and are slated to go down
in defeat tomorrow there are four
stars on their squad who are strong
enough to assure them of taking sev­eral
firsts in the meet. The quartet
that forms the mainstay of the Meth­odists'
clan of cinder-burners are: Red
Morland in the 880 and two mile run,
Pete Petrite in the pole vault and high
jump, Tom Sparks in the 100, 220, and
220 low hurdles; and Rufus Perry
throwing the javelin.
Strategy Not Decided On
To date Coach Wilbur Hutsell has
not decided how to pit his tracksters
against the charges of Coach Lex Full-bright.
It is expected that the fifteen
men on the Auburn squad who scored
against Georgia, in Athens, last Sat­urday
will comprise the Tiger squad
that meets the Panther cindermen.
Capt. Wilton Kilgore will be the No.
1 man in the 220 and 440 runs, Mon-sey
Gresham in the mile and two-mile
tests, James Swanner also should score
in the two-mile event; David Sprinkle
in the pole vault and broad jump,
Bruce McGehee in clearing the tall
timbers, Hamp Williams in the 880,
Bob Coleman in the 100 yard dash,
and Hugh Rodgers in the shot put.
Others likely to score are: Sellers in
high and low hurdles, Nichols in the
880, Ellis in the 440 run, and South,
running the low timber event.

Panning To Wealth
In the wooded valley of the Alaskan
White Elk Valley the air is rife with
the noise and clatter of. gold seekers
who have come from miles around to
pan their way to wealth in a 1937
gold rush. Several weeks ago a tim-berman,
while fishing, made the dis­covery
that started a migration into
the White Elk area. The deposits,
which have been found all along the
banks of Kukokimim Bay, are report­ed
to be yielding vast treasures of the
precious gold.
The discovery of this valuable re­source
in Alaska reminds us all of the
criticism Secretary Seward received
when he made the purchase. Seward
foresaw Alaska's value and went
ahead with purchase plans, despite
strong antagonism from all his ad­visers.
The finding of these gold deposits
is another tribute to the prophetic
Seward who bought us an "icebox"
that has proven to be our most re­sourceful
possession. The critics who
laughed at Seward and called Alaska,
"Sewards Icebox", once more bow
their heads in shame, as they ridiculed
one of the greatest acquisitions in the
history of the United States. -
Big Shots
Two of our contemporaries have
vehemently denounced what they
term college "Big Shots" in recent is­sues
of their respective publications.
Louisiana State University paints us
a hazy picture of a student who is in­terested
only in his own welfare and
who forgets to return favors for votes
received in campus elections. "He
calls you pal", says the Reville, "when
he wants your vote. When you want
a favor he doesn't exactly remember
your name. He'd like to do what you
want, but you must realize that he is
• a very busy man." Again he is pic­tured
as a hypocrite who is ever so­liciting
aid in his school work al­though
it is against his teachings.
"He believes in honesty, truth, free­dom—
and he wants to know if he can
copy your government paper for to­morrow
because he doesn't have time
to study." Further,—"he gripes at
the school and the professors when
anything goes wrong but when every­thing
is running smoothly he is the
school's rah, rah boy."
The Oredigger, of the Colorado
School of Mines paints a similar pic­ture
which is as follows:
"Campus 'Big Shots' are the tumors
of the campus of American Colleges.
They strut. They expand from nice
country youths into large containers of
lukewarm air. They do not mind their
own business. Meddling into the moral
status of others seem to be their chief
occupation. They pat backs and call us
lesser mortals "fellas'. In their own
estimation they are far above the old
Greek gods. They would have the moun­tain
come to them, even
"What happens to these small cyclo­nes?
What are they doing five years
after graduation? What .happened to
the bright college editor that tried to
reform everything in sight, wrote ar­ticles
on what this country needs, and
generally made himself a big pain in
the neck? i
"The majority go back to the farm
and act as valet for the pigs and cows.
Some stick around the alma mammy
and do a little side line coaching for
the other 'fellas'. Many of them try
their tactics on a tough world and land
in a comfortable rut and show their
scrap book to the kiddies and remind
other disinterested persons about their
trivial accomplishments at Podunk
Normal. Finally, they die and Saint
Peter is greeted with, 'Hi,fella!' "
It is quite, apparent that both of
these schools seem inclined to misin­terpret
activity among some of the
members of the student body and at
the same time try to discourage it.
Here at Auburn, the term "Big
Shot" is often heard in connection
with the names of certain members of
the student body, but this term can
in no way be interpreted here as it is
at LSU and Colorado Mines. Students
should be encouraged to become act­ive
in various extra curricular fields
and to gain as much experience as
possible while in college. And as for
what becomes of the illtermed "Big
Shots", we would like to point out
that the most outstanding men in col­lege
are invariably the ones who will
achieve greatest success in later life,
as has been conclusively shown by the
numerous statisticians.
After Twenty Years
Twenty years ago this week the
United States declared war on Ger­many.
Says George W. Norris, Re­publican,
the only living man in the
Senate who voted against the de­claration,
writing in the Christian
Century:
"In my service of about thirty-five
years in Congress I have un­doubtedly
made many mistakes, but
my vote against the declaration of
war was not one of them."
Continues Senator Norris: "For
the thousands of our young men
killed and maimed, for our billions
spent, for the countless millions of
heartaches, we have what? We
have political corruption, such as
was'never dreamed of before. We
have a new crop of millionaires
such as the world haS never before
witnessed. We have a crime wave
that staggers the imagination of the
world. We have gigantic, war-grown
combinations of trade and
money that are squeezing billions
annually out of the people who gave
till it hurt. We have a national
avariciousness, and sense of grab,
grab, grab, that cannot be eradicat­ed
from the'national consciousness
for generations to come. This we
have. Why? Because the war . . .
stupefied and paralyzed the moral
consciousness of the American peo­ple
as nothing else could have done.
And because it was war of gigantic
commercial interests from beginning
to end.
" . . . The terrible condition we are
now in and the terrible depression
in which all classes of our people
have suffered would affect us only
in a minor degree if we had kept
out that war."
How can anyone fail to see the
truth in what Senator Norris says?
And yet our country, in- case of an­other
European war, is in a perfect
position to be drawn in again, prob­ably
this time to save the world
from nazism or communism. How
many wars will it take to convince
the American people that in modern
large scale war there can be no vic­tory
for either side, that nothing
fought for is gained, that fighting
for ideals is just a joke?
Twenty years ago we went to
war to end militarism. There is
more militarism today than there
was then, and the United States has
adopted the very system it was sup­posed
to be abolishing.
We fought to -save democracy,
and the fruits of that struggle have
been flourishing dictatorships. Even
in our own country we have abridg­ments
of civil liberties that are sur­prisingly
like those in Germany and
Russia.
We fought for liberty, justice,
fraternity; we fought to win the
friendship of the world, to end au­tocracy,
to uphold idealism of all
kinds. These aims have become the
laughing stock of the world.
No greater causes or higher
ideals could be fought for than
those advanced twenty years ago,
and we see what a tragic mistake it
was to fight for them. The only
conclusion is that there is no cause
that will justify our entrance ever
again into such a barbaric struggle.

THE SOCIAL COMMITTEE WILL
HAVE SOON DONE ITS LITTLE BIT for
the Auburn student. The student body is
always clamoring for a good orchestra and
a better place in which to hold the major
sets of dances. There can be no doubt en­tertained
in the mind of a greater portion
of the inmates of this institution that
George Olsen, "Presenting His Music of
Tomorrow", will provide some of the best if
not the best entertainment of the sort that
has ever been to Auburn. And as for the
Hall which has been secured, it is the very
best possible place in town. All in all,
hearty commendations are in line for the
group that made such an arrangement pos­sible.

DID WE STRIKE? At eleven o'clock
Thursday morning, a student strike was
scheduled. All college and high school
students were asked to walk out of classes,
go without their customary noon day meal,
and contribute freely to the Anti-War move­ment.
These demonstrations always serve
as good editorial material whether they ac­complish
any other good or not..

It appears that Premier Hepburn of
Canada has made himself out a formidable
opponent for John L. Lewis and his strike
movements. He has attempted to keep
Lewis' influence out of the Canadian in­dustries,
and has, apparently, succeeded
with a few minor exceptions.. It is now re­ported
that all strikes have been called off
and that meditation is on the way. These
Canadians must be another group of people
whose sentiment does not rest too close to
outlawery in labor disputes.

The Daughters of the American Revolu­tion
had a convention. They discussed and
decided what was good for the country. And
it is reported that they are a bit in disfavor
of the President's plan to rework and in­vigorate
the Supreme Court. There must
not be enough obvious sympathy in the
Chief Executive's intentions.

FATHER DEVINE IS HIDING IN
SOME EARTHLY INFERNO it seems. He
can't be found to give accounts for some of
his recent actions with young women in con­nection
with his seducing them with the idea
that they were to be the Mother of the New
Savior. Anyway, he has deserted his Har­lem
Heaven and Mother Mary, who, by the
way, has voiced her loss of faith in him and
his racket. He had gained thousands of fol­lowers,
but the arm of the law is seeking
for him and his faith. So the halo about
his head may change to something of a more
practical and deadly nature.

By EDWIN C. GODBOLD
Quite often we hear Auburn students
branding campus elections and politics as
"rotten"; quite often we read editorials
condemning "the deadly pestilence which
has lain smoldering under campus activi­ties
for many months past".
It is all very interesting, reading and
talking about campus politics. We read
and talked about before we came here, and
we have had our eyes open for some of
the things we heard about—campus poli­tical
machines which completely dominated
elections, efficient political bosses whose
merest word or nod is law, the appointment
of choice political plums before election
day, secret, meetings in smoke-filled rooms
in which dark and sinister agreements are
sworn to, and so on.
We did not find any of these things and
we don't mind telling you, for we do feel
the ordinary student ought to be dissi-lusioned
about Auburn politics. One quite
often hears the remark that it is little use
to go into politics, that fraternity line-ups
dominate it, anyway. Don't believe it!
Basically, our plea for allowing frater­nity
line-ups is that they do little harm and
that they are needed. If line-ups were as
efficient and all-powerful as they are
sometimes said to be, a man with a strong
line-up could not lose. But very often he
does. Frequently candidates with no array
of Greek organizations behind them burn
up the field in a race and win by sizeable
majorities. Friendships and contacts are
so democratic at Auburn that men are gen­erally
known and voted for because they
are the kind of men they are, not because
Chi Baby Chi, Who Keppa Upsilate, and a
dozen other groups are lined up to vote
for them.
And fraternity line-ups are not un-fair
to the non-fraternity man, for frequently
you find the latter lined-up with the
lodges.
Now as to why line-ups are needed, re­member
that politics, as a rule, follows the
same trend everywhere, whether national,
state, city, or campus. There always will
be and should be parties and organizations
capable of DIRECTING the vote. Not,
please notice, bossing the vote, but direct­ing
it. In other words, there must be
some organization to point with pride and
view with alarm. For what would politics
be without that?
Somehow we feel that your candidate
will be less prone to engage in methods of
doubtful legality if he has a backing than
if he were on his own. Too much depends
on his going straight, for if he doesn't, he
sullies the name of the entire group. Too,
don't prevent your candidate from an at­tempt
at pre-election organizing. It is
good for him. If he can organize effic­iently
before election, in all probability he
can do the same after he is in office, and
accomplish much for the general good.
As long as Auburn is democratic and
men are men because they have hair on
their chests and because they are good
fellows, there is a place here for fraternity
line-ups. For you may depend on this,
NO!
By L. E. FOSTER, JR.
For a number of reasons I have concluded
that political line-ups among fraternities at
Auburn are undesirable.
First, their aims are bad. They seek to
bond together corresponding class members
in fraternities so that they will vote for
everyone in a fixed line-up without con­sideration
of the condidate's qualifications.
They seek to make elections a matter of
organizing rather than a matter of personal
merit. Line-ups also aim to overpower the
non-fraternity nominees by a mass frater­nity
vote. Which is not at all a fair in­tention.
Second, the line-ups do not even achieve
these malefic aims. In a school so demo­cratic
as Auburn it is impossible to organize
a set voting line-up. There are too many
personal ties that obligate students to vote
out of their line-up and it is obvious that
most Auburn students promise to vote the
line-up but nearly always deviate and vote
for whomsoever they wish; thereby making
the whole purpose of line-ups futile. Too,
line-ups aye too easily broken by candidates
who decide to change to another line-up or
drop out.
Third, they tend to lower the quality of
candidates. Many good men have changed
their minds about running for office just be­cause
of the big line-up's bluffs. In this
way nominations are. suppressed. Other
good men are lost under the line-up system
which makes it almost impossible for more
than one man to run from each fraternity.
Only one can be in a lineup; the other must
run in a lineup opposing his fraternity
brother or else retire from the race.
Fourth, line-ups breed ill feeling between
fraternities and individuals. The many
promises and pledges necessary to such or­ganizing
of voters cannot always be carried
out. Sometimes the incompetency is volun­tary
sometimes involuntary, but they always
"mash the toes" of another fraternity and a
bad relationship arises. Personal enmity
also arises from the discovery that mem­bers
of other fraternities were not loyal in
voting for a man.
Fifth, the whole system is based on the
malignant practice of logrolling. The "you
vote for me and I'll vote for you" policy has
no part in a popular election. We could
hardly call such elections "popular" when
the outstanding feature of the system is
log-rolling.
Anyone can see that the intentions of the
line-ups are foul and not in keeping with
our other public policies. Lineups are just
a big bluff, and I will gladly make the con­cession
that they are not nearly so strong
and effective as they are generally thought
to be.
(Why do we allow a practice to exist that
is of noxious intention and serves no com­mon
good whatsoever?)
that in spite of the fact that a dozen
groups are supposed to vote for a man, if
that man is not well-liked and a good fel­low,
the majority of men in those groups
will shake the dust of that political com­bine
from them and vote as their con­science
directs them.

Young men on the campus who are hav­ing
a hard time persuading the girl back
home to come to the Finals might find the
persuasion a little easier if they adopted the
tactics of a Georgia student. He bought
an ordinary postal card and wrote the fol­lowing
message on it: "We the undersigned,
having heard much about you through our
pal, believe that you should attend Little
Commencement dances in order that we
might meet you. Signed " Then he
got a number of his friends to sign the
epistle before he dropped it into the mails.

How many things a woman can carry in
her purse has long been a subject of con­versation
among college men; now a new
story of that type is making the rounds. It
seems that a coed of the University of Wis­consin
lost her handbag at a night-club on
the outskirts of town. She didn't notice
her loss until returning to her sorority
house after the date. The following Sat­urday
a date took her to the same club. At
the check-room she asked if anyone had
found her bag. Several were brought out.
She was asked if she could identify hers by
the contents. "Why yes," was her reply,
"Mine had a pair of pajamas in it!"—No
comments needed—
A salary for conducting a sit-down strike
is something that a couple of coeds at Wes­ley
Junior College didn't expect. Tired of
seeing the typical leg-flying of modern
musical pictures, the girls walked into the
lobby of a Greenville, Texas theatre, sat
down and declared they wouldn't move un­til
the theatre would show Deanna Durbin,
the 14-year-old songbird. Snapping up the
chance to get some lively publicity, the
theatre manager got the girls comfortable
chairs, put them on- the payroll, and the next
week-end cashed in on a showing of
Deanna's picture, "Three Smart Girls."

For downright enjoyable humor Mark
Twain is hard to beat. This dedication from
one of his books shows that he could make
even dedications humorous:
To John Smith whom I have known in
divers and sundry places about the world,
and whose many and manifold virtues did
always command my esteem, I dedicate this
book.
It is said that the man to whom a volume
is dedicated always buys a copy. If this
proves true in the present instance, a prince­ly
affluence is about to burst upon
The Author.

We have always held a particular fond­ness
for that oldest and most gracious of
arts—letter writing. A good letterwriterns
a rare individual. He must possess the
temperament that makes and holds friends.
He is usually an impressible, lively, sensible
individual, who is able to describe the comr
monplace details of life in such a manner as
to strike a responsive chord in the reader.
He must be the type who is more interesting
after a two-mile hike than most people are
after a world tour. , »
A good letterwriter must learn what
every real writer learns—to write to the
whole world as a friend. Even if the as­pirant
never becomes a writer, he will have
passed many happy hours writing, unhar-rassed
by the current fashions in literature
and making his life infinitely richer.
, * * * *
Some wide reading in the letters of great
men will compensate for the time and ef­fort.
The reader will associate with men of
letters on the most informal terms, when
they express themselves frankly, when they
are their real selves. Good letters are good
literature—informal, and apparently artless
and unpremeditated.

They has been votes
and votes around here
this year, in fact as
many votes as there is bull frogs in the
mill pond, and most of them just about as
full of air, but the vote of the year came
off this past Wednesday when the Alama-gated
Union of the Royal Order of Hoss
Thieves voted themselves a ticket to Chicago
Merritt's caper in the woods.
Now I intend in no way to discredit the
Executive Cabinet and the name they go by
in the above paragraph in just one man's
title for the association. They had the pow­er
to vote and they voted and they caused
the biggest story of the year . . . . something
for us news starved mortals to think about.
The confusing question is was or wasn't
Sarver there to pull the reins? This paper
says yes in the Wednesday edition, and the
Executive cabinet says no that same night.
The paper says Vann and Dunning votes
against the measure, and the Cabinet says
Vann seconded the motion to invite the As­sociation
to the woods. Some woodpile near
about is being haunted by a dark skinned
gentleman.
Another thing to think about is who has
the tickets? That is .'. . just suppose I ap­peared
in front of the Tiger Theatre some
Sunday afternoon, saw that the show was
going to be good and decided I would want
to go, and suppose I drew back a space and
voted unto myself and the vote came out
that I had voted myself a ticket I would go
up to "Kappa Delta" Thomas who would be
on the door and I would say to Thomas: "I
have voted myself a ticket to the show.
How's for letting me in?" Naturally
Thomas would say, "Where is the ticket you
have voted yourself?" And naturally I,
would have the vote but no ticket.
The next question is . . . What happens
Friday night when the Hoss Thieves appear
out into the woods with the vote but with­out
the ticket?
# * * *
Anyway, it was the best news story of the
year . . . two mugs got their pictures in the
papers . . . and most everybody is happy and
are awaiting future developments.

Took a look at the coming out Glomerata
the past night, and t'was a mighty fine
looking book. Even if the Business Mana­ger
did violate all arrangements of the us­ual

also a mighty fine looking car.
The high lights of the book . . . at first
glance: The picture of Mollie Brasfield (not
the full length picture). The picture of
Nettie Murphy (who takes the best picture
of any girl we have ever seen). The cover
of the book. The stuff that me and George
Quinney and one of the Jones boys wrote.
The drawings of Chris Risher. The good
makeup of the book. The funny pictures
scattered all over the book. And the best
picture I have ever seen of Frances Wright.

one of those games of chance fer marking
one offen the list i mite of got one of
them beglassed benosed betoothed squeal­ers
what couldn't even dance but i won by
getting one of the more queenly ones.
Well the squealing begun in Petrie Hall
and there wasn't anybody there but the
glee club and the ones that had dates but
they went on with the squealing irregard-less
of anything. And at intermission and
after the dance i never seen so many
stage door johnnies afighting around fer
the gals. However i had dx>ne made ar­rangements
with the glee club and i just
marched in an tuck one of the gals off to
the All Take One house to the joock that
they was throwing fer the squealers. And
the punch wasn't even spiked! Sum time

and tuck me home and tuck me in bed.

high-school, or elementary school ath­letic
events. This is the ruling of
Attorney General Albert A. Car-michael.
In reply to a series of questions sub­mitted
by J. A. Keller, state superin­tendent
of education, taxes must be
collected on all games, lectures, and
entertainments where • admission is
charged. Taxes will also be levied on
tablets, pencils, erasers and similar
articles when sold by school stores.
Articles exempt from taxation in­clude
coal, water, floor oii, mops or
building supplies. Such supplies as
nails, lumber and glass for upkeep
purposes are also exempt from tax­ation.
Laboratory equipment such as chem­icals
and materials used in domestic
science classes will not be taxed, nor
will equipment paid for by local, State
or federal funds.

Hamm, who had reached first after
Belting out a single, and Captain Scar­borough's
clout sent Speck Kelly, who
had bingled, scurrying across the plate
with the winning tally. Norman Whit-ten's
bingle off James in the third
session was the only other safety Au­burn
hit off the Trojan ace.

The newly organized tennis team
here will meet the strong Beauvoir
Country Club team, from Montgomery,
Saturday afternoon, at 2:30 P. M.,
on the new Auburn Country Club
courts.
The four man team from the Capi­tol
City is composed of the top-rank­ing
players in Montgomery, namely:
Marcus, No. 1; Branch, No. 2; Mur­ray,
No. 3; and Parks, No. 4. From
the Auburn team, composed of six
men, namely: M. Lide, B. McGehee, B.
McCIure, J. W. McKee, B. Biggin, and
B. Shofner, a four man squad will be
selected to oppose the Montgomery
racket wielders. This meet will in­clude
four singles matches and two
doubles battles. Drawings will be held
tomorrow afternoon before the
matches begin to determine the play­ing
schedule of the meet.
Although the local boys only re­cently
began practice as a unit they
should make a creditable showing
against their formidable foe. One of
the outstanding men on the Auburn
squad is Martin Lide, of Birmingham,
who held the Alabama State High
School Championship for two years in
succession. He has also been runner-up
in several other tourneys over the
state. J. W. McKee, from Selma, is
another valuable man on the local
team. He is the first-ranking racke­teer
in Selma, and has shown up well
in numerous meets in Central Ala­bama.
The outstanding men on the visiting
squad are Marcus and Branch. Mar­cus
is wearer of the Montgomery Y.
M. C. A. crown, and has featured in
several meets over the state. Branch
was a valuable member of the Uni­versity
of Alabama tennis team when
he was a student there.
Lide is captain of the local team
and Shofner is the manager. The
Montgomery boys are captained by
Marcus, and Branch is the manager.

Auburn Aero Club To
Hold Airshow Sunday
As part of the festivities of the
final dances the Auburn Aero Club
will hold an airshow at the local air­port
on Saturday and Sunday.
On Sunday a number of visiting
planes, flown by members of the Bir­mingham
Aero Club will visit the field.
Planes are also expected from Mont­gomery
and Columbus. The pilots of
the local club will give exhibitions of
stunt and precision flying at various
times during the two days. Those tak­ing
part in the show will be Frank
Wade, Bob Ward, George Mongold,
and Jimmie Brown and Jack Steppe,
operators of the local club.
The Birmingham Aero Club's par­ticipation
in the show is but part .of
a program of recognition being spon­sored
by t h a t organization. The Club
plans to sponsor an aviation dance for
the Auburn Aero Club, in Auburn,
before the end of school. A commit­tee
composed of members of the local
organization will pick an Aliburn co­ed
to reign as queen of the ball. It is
planned to make this one of the most
unusual and spectacular dances ever
held here.
The Birmingham Aero Club is com­posed
of many leading citizens of that
city, and is generally recognized as
one of the leading civic bodies of its
kind in the country.
The club is now operating two
planes, a Taylor Cub, and a Porter-field
Flyabout, and the show on Sun­day
will climax almost one year of
continual and progressive growth by
the club. Started by six air-minded
students last year the club now has
over forty-five active members and has
succeeded in making a large part of
the local community air-minded. The
record of safety the club has made is
convincing evidence of the safety of
flying under proper instruction and
supervision.
Details of the show a r e being handl­es
by F r a n k Wade and Bob Ward.

By JOHN IVEY, JR.
Winning their first game of the
current season, the Phi Kappa Tau
baseball team succeeded in downing
the powerful Pi K. A. diamond ag­gregation
by a count of 4 to 1. The
Pi K. A.'s defeat gives Beta Kappa
an undisputed claim to second place
in the I n t e r - f r a t e r n i t y base-ball race.
The third place K. A. outfit hand­ed
t h e Delta Sig's a 7 to 6 set-back.
The Sigma Chi's turned in a neat
performance by defeating the Theta
Kappa Nu' sluggers easily in a 9 to
3 decision. Although starting the
season with: a series of defeats the
Sigma Chi t e n is rapidly becoming a
fine ball club.
Ag Debaters Lose To
Georgia University
The Ag Club debating team dropped
a close decision to a more experienced
team from the University of Georgia,
Wednesday night in Comer Hall.
The subject of the debate was "Re­solved
t h a t Agricultural and Industrial
Problems Can be Solved Through the
Program Advocated by the F a rm Che-murgic
Council".
0. M. Cates and Elmon Vickers com­posed
the Georgia team which deliver­ed
the affirmative arguments in a very
convincing manner.
The Auburn team composed of
Aaron Baxter and Charles Hollings-worth
made a very favorable impres­sion
in "this, their first contest of the
season.
Accompaning the Georgia team to
Auburn was Professor Mitchel.
Polo Team Leaves On
Extended Annual Tour
The Auburn Polo Team will leave
Auburn Monday, April 26, on their
annual t r i p on which they play games
with several of the leading northern
and mid-western colleges.
Engaging Ohio State in their first
game on the 27th at Columbus, Ohio,
the team moves to Ames, Iowa, to play
Iowa State on the 29th. In a return
game they invade Columbia, Missouri
to play the University of Missouri on
April 30, the last game of the series.
Captain W. J. Klepinger announces
that he will take the following men on
the t r i p : Tom Bacon, Miller Herrin,
Robert McNulty, and Bob Hurd with
George Hardy taken as a substitute.
In a game characterized by poor
defensive work the A. T. O. team
came through to an 18 to 12 win
over Sigma Pi. The Theta Chi's gave
the Alpha Gamma Rho t h e i r first de­f
e a t , in two weeks in a 9 to 11
decision.
Partial Standing Available
Since all the teams entered in the
baseball race have not turned in re­p
o r t s on their wins and loses, we can
give only a partial report on league
standings.
The Lambda Chi outfit is leading
all opponents with a record of nine
wins in as many starts. Since the
Pi. K. A. aggregation has suffered
two defeats in seven games, the Beta
Kappa ten is r a t e d over them in sec­ond
place with a record of seven wins
and one loss.
The K. A.'s have played only five
games, but have been victors in four
engagements and suffered a tie with
the Sigma Nu's. This record gives
them third place according to reports
turned in to this office.
Both the Pi K. A.'s and the A. T.
O.'s have played seven games and
have been victors,in five of their
starts. With these records both
teams can claim fourth place in the
league race.
A more complete list of league
standing will be given as soon as the
various fraternities turn in reports
on their games to t h e Plainsman of­fice.

bama reports that the orchestra is
one of the finest ever contracted for
a set of Auburn dances. Their praise
of the electric organ, carried by the
orchestra to add effectiveness to
their music, was especially high.
They state that the singing of the
two vocalists, Edith Caldwell and
Leighton Noble, was good.
Decorations at the new hall in the
hands of Phil Hamil and Chris Rish-er,
students of agriculture, are treat­ed
in a new and interesting manner
this year with the theme, "Spring",
flowers, potted palms and other
carried out with the use of vines,
plants, and an elaborate system -of
latticework.
Transportation Furnished Free
Transportation for the dances, fur­nished

Committee in view of the some
what remorved location of the hall,

who desire to go to the dances. There
will be no charge for the transpor­tation.
Prices for single tickets to the
dances are set a t $3.50 for night
dances and $1.50 for day dances.
Each organization sponsoring a dance
will be honored with two lead-outs.
There will be two no-breaks a t the
day dances and t h r e e at the night
dances. Any information about the
dances and tickets may be got from
the members of the Social Com­mittee.
Ample room for 200 spectators has
been set aside for those who desire
to listen to the music rather than
dance. The price of spectator tick­ets
is set a t $1.00. The new W. P.
A. Hall, recently completed and open­ed,
is equipped with an air-condit­ioning
unit and provides almost twice
