Tigers Defeat Howard
Bulldogs By Score of 30-0
Team A Little Slow to
Start, But Shows Big
! Improvement
T^e Tigers of the Plains added
another scalp to the string Saturday
when they made the fighting
Howard Bulldogs bow down before
then, in a 30 to 0 victory. The
Tigers were slow to start things
going, as the first period shows
that neither team neared its opponents
goal line- It was early in the
second period that the Pitts' machine
got down to business, and
with an array of forward passes,
that completely swept Howard off
its feet, the Plainsmen pushed over
two touchdowns.
In the second half, the Bulldogs'
defense weakened and the Tigrs
piled up the remainder of the 30
points. In this half, many of Coach
Pitts' second string men saw service
and all of them showed up unusually
well. Several of the Tigers
who vfere on the crippled list were
kept out of the game. Among them
was "'Flivver" Ford, who was nurs-
. ing ,,aii injured hip, but this man
is expected to be in good condition
. ior-the Army game tomorrow.
Howard showed very little, offen-
*s!*fe-pL3wer-as-ihcy only made GKS
first down during the^entire struggle.
Their offensive' was based
practically on the aerial route, although
several end runs were attempted.
The Bulldogs' line was
not able to open holes in the Tiger
defense, and their rushes were halted
with little gain. Their passing
was also weak as only one was
completed out of the large number
tried.
The work of the entire Tiger
Team was all that anyone could
expect. Their defense was air
tight and very little ground was
gained by the invaders. The forward
passing attack waged by the
Plainsmen was the most successful
and effective that the Auburnites
have exhibited in many moons.
Time and again Harrison would
_.tuirl the pigskin far down into the
Baptists' territory, right into the
waiting arms of Peterson, Allen,
Williams or Crane, and by good
interference several touch-downs
came in short order.
The lack of blocking in only a
few instances was the only noticeable
weakness in the Tiger team in
Saturday's game, and by the time
the Plainsmen face the Cadets the
team will be a formidable foe for
any team.
Line-ups:
Auburn (30)—Ollinger, left end;
Nabors, left tackle; Reagan (captain),
left guard; Lawrence, center;
Self, right guard; Brice, right
tackle; Pruitt, right end; Peterson,

AUBURN FRESHIES
SCURE 12-7 VICTORY
OVER MERCER RATS
Turner and Andress Big
Stars for Junior Plainsmen;
Moulton's Kicking
Features
Auburn freshmen were victorious
in a hard fought contest last
Friday afternoon, with the Mercer
freshmen by a score of 12 to 7. The
game was played at the Opelika
Fair grounds and was widely attended
by Opelikans and scores of
Auburn students.
Plenty of fight was evidenced on
both sides. Auburn showed better
offensive, better interference, and
out-kicked the visitors. The game
was played largely in Mercer territory.
Dums and Tipton, the former
end and the latter at tackle,
played a great game. Captain Lawrence
ran with the ball a number
of times but he seemed to be minus
interference and was unable " to
penetrate the Auburn defense for
material gains. Stines' long run
featitred. For the Tiger freshmen
it was Turner at fullback, Andress
at half, and Hagood, who substituted
for Turner at full that won the
laurels of the day. •
Moulton's kicking was on par
with the work of most varsity toe
men. The two lines used by Coach
Newell proved to be impregnable
combinations on the defense. They
charged well on the offense and
showed great improvement over
the Sidney Lanier game.
Three teams were used by the
Auburn coaches, Robirtspn's work
at center was probably out-standing
as was English and Pruitt at
tackle. Line-up:
Mercer—Tipton, L. E.; Grant, L.
T.; Lunsford, L. G.; Milan, center;
Banks, R. G.; Dunn, R. T.; Smith,
R. E.; Glover, quarter; Stine, R. H.;

Splendid Meeting
Friendship Council
Hugh G. Grant, Alumni
Association Secretary,
Speaks to Members
On Wednesday night at seven
o'clock the Friendship Council of
the Y. M. C. A. held its first meeting
of the scholastic year. Although
a few of the members were unable
to be present, it was on the whole
a splendid meeting, especially for
one so early in the year.
The President of the Y. M. C. A.
and Colonel of the Council, L. H.
Tapscott, opened the meeting for
a short talk in which he emphasized
certain things which should be
considered by every member of
the organization. He then introduced
Mr. H. G. Grant, Alumni Secretary,
who gave a most appropriate
and enlightening talk on
what could and should be done by
the Friendship Council this year.
Mr. Grant told how he had once
been a "Y" worker in France during
the War and of the interesting
things which he had experienced
there. Mr. Grant stated that it was
the manifest duty of the Y. M. C.
A, through the Friendship Council,
to keep in touch with activities
and happenings, and that it was
"up to them" to help keep Auburn

Speaks At Thursday's
Convocation
W. Carson Adams, Birmingham
business man, capitalist, World
War worker and friend of Auburn,
was the chief speaker Thursday in
convocation exercises in Langdon
Hall. Mr. Adams was the special
guest of President Dowell, faculty
members and students. He spoke
on the subject of means, of attaining
success in life-
The speaker laid down as fundamental
the control of one's life by
the observation of a few simple
rules and regulations such as proper
diet and exercise. He quoted
statistics to back up his assertions
that persons as a rule have it with-in
their own discretion as to whether
or not they have long or short
lives and as to whether or not they
are successes or failures.
"We control our lives," Mr.
Adams said, "by observing a few
simple rules. I want to impress upon
you young men the fact that you
largely control your own destiny.
The saddest thing in life to me is
the fact, borne out by statistics,
that 999 out of every 1,000 persons

Publishes' Text Book
Pencil Drawing
On
"The Artists Come Home" feature
article by Lyle Saxon in the
Sunday Magazine of the New Orleans
Times-Picayune, contains
some interesting references to a
former. Auburn student, W. P.
Spratling, ex-'21. Spratling is connected
with* the School of 'Architecture
at Tulane. University, but
this is not all. Here is what Mr.
Saxon has to say about him:
"William P. Spratling, instructor
in architecture at Tulane University,
has returned from Europe and
has reopened his studio in the
heart of old New Orleans. Along
the walls of the room which overlooks
the Cathedral garden, he has
disposed some thirty-odd sketches,
pencil drawings made in France.
And each evening last week groups
of artists and art students from
the neighborhood have climbed the
studio stairs, to look at these
sketches—for the drawings are
well worth going to see.
Now comes the news that Mr.
Spratling will include ten of them
in his new textbook, 'Pencil Drawing,'
which is issued by the Penguin
Book Shop in Royal Street,
and printed by Searcy and Pfaff
of New Orleans. The book will be
off the press, ready for sale, by
the time this issue of the paper is
on the street—and it is safe to say
that the book will command wide
attention among artists and those
interested in the arts.
"Its aim? .Well, perhaps it is
best to quote the author's preface:
"There is no pleasure equal to the
ability, acquired after long practice,
to express with ease on paper
any subject you may select.

medium, extending from an instrument
of extreme delicacy and pre-

Opening Dances
i -October 26-27
Plans Completed For Classy
Hop
The opening dances will be held
on the 26th and 27th of October.
There has been a great deal of interest
displayed in these dances
because of the fact that they were
delayed and that some of tfie students
were afraid that we would
not be able to have them. The
main reason for the dances coming
so late in the month is that the new
dormitory was not completed as
was contracted and some of the
students were staying in the gymnasium.
However, everything has
been settled and everyone is expecting
the dances to be bigger'and
better than ever.
Music for the occasion will be
furnished by Joe Chip's "Harmony
Seven," from Birmingham. This
is a new orchestra and is composed
of a combination of the two best
orchestras that played in the Magic
City during the summer. They
have been highly recommended to
the Social Committee and everyone
who has heard them say that they
will put out the best music that can
be.had in the South.
Over three hundred invitations
have been mailed out to the' fairest
damsels in the Southland and out
of this number we are sure to have
one of the largest crowds that ever
attended the Opening Dances. All
the details of the dances are to be
handled by the Student Social
Committee and any suggestions,
will be welcomed by any member
of this Committee. The Committee
i's composed of the following:
Seniors—F. C. Hahn, Chairman,
T. P. Crane, M. H- Mellen, R*. G.
Brice.
Juniors—H. C. Rush, E. A. Barks,
I). F. Cathcart. f
Sophomores—H. A. Pitts, D. G.
Evans.
Freshmen—E. B. Anderson.
Fair Grounds Scene Of
Annual Battle—Both
Teams Out For Fresh
— Championship
Kirk NeweU's "Rats" will meet
the Georgia Freshmen at the Opelika
Fair Grounds Saturday afternoon,
in what promises to be the,
hardest of the .three annual struggles
that have become real classics
for the Lee County Metropolis.
Both of the previous clashes
have been won by the Tiger Fresh-ies,
and the young Bulldogs are
coming with a stronger team
than ever with strong hopes of
turning the tide. They are. fresh
from a victory over the Clemson
^Freshman eleven by a 28 to 0
score and reports have it that, they
have one of the strongest "Rat"
teams in the south, which makes
it all the more interesting as the
cohorts of Kirk Newell are especially
^strong on the defense and this
will give them the real test.
To date the team has won two
and tied one, the only score being
made, against them was the one
•scored by Mercer after the third
string lineup had been substituted
in the last two minutes of the game
last week. -The backfield combination
of Turner, Andress, Hay-good
and Moulton is a strong one
and it is believed that it can puncture
the strong defense of the Red
and Black. It is the second of the
S. I. C. championship games for
the Freshmen and they will put
their last ounce of energy into the
scrap to keep their slate clean.
Mass Meetings At Gym
Owing to the inadequacy of
Langdon Hall to accomodate the
entire student body at pep meetings,
the Athletic Authorities have
decided to permit the use of the
gymnasium for pep functions. The
enthusiasm and spirit displayed at
these meetings has been so • entertaining
that not only the students,
but many of the townspeople come
to the meetings regularly. As the
seating capacity of the Hall is only
enough to accommodate half the
students, this means that several
hundred must stand in the aisles
and in front of the building. The
use of the big gym will mean that
fifteen hundred students can get
into the yells and make them bigger
and better.
Speedy Tigers Expected
To Give The Army
Mule Hard Fight
On Wednesday morning at 8:10,-
the Tigers entrained for their second
Crusade to the Banks of the
Hudson, their mission being to
conquer a stubborn Army Mule.
One year ago the Tiger Clan all but
had this much dreaded beast harnessed
and tamed, when a defective
hitch yielded to the vigorous
kicking, bucking and charging of
this hard-headed quadruped. Thus
the efforts of this initial pilgrimage
went for naught except invoke
fear of the Tiger into the heart of
the mule.
More hope for the success of the
Tiger, comes as a result of recent
reports for an invasion into the
hostile sector. According to this
report, less than a fortnight ago a
score of good Catholics from one
Notre Dame, all possessing youthful
vigor and spurred on by the
prayers of the good Fathers, journeyed
into the pasture lands of
this equestrian and gained a tern,- .
porary victory. This is the first
time that the Old Gray Mule has
shown signs of yielding to domes- •
tication for years, and so it is hoped
that the* swift and furious attack/
of the Tiger may succeed in
carrying on the good work so nobly
begun by the young priests.
Instead of the robust and powerful
Tiger »that faced "the Soldiers
twelve months ago, they will find
themselves confronted by a smaller
but shifty one with a swifter
and more varied attack.. On the
other >hand the Tiger will be faced
by a more powerful driving attack
with an added weight, but hardly
so versatile in attack.
Only eight of the men who made
the trip last year are among the
twenty to return for the second
battle with the cadets. Many new
faces will be in the lineup that will
start Saturday and though they may
lack some in experience, the soldiers
will find them a hard fighting
bunch that never give up. To
date the defensive strength of the
team has kept the last chalk
line of their goal line uncrossed
and while no predictions
are made that the Army will hot
cross it, everyone knows that they
will have to fight for every foot
gained. It will be a game between
a heavy veteran team against* a
much lighter and inexperienced
team, with much interest being
shown as to just how the latter
will fare when pitted against these
odds.
The twenty players taking the

I n t e r e s t in S t u d e nt
A c t i v i t i e s
One of the most noticeable things
which has come under the observation
of anyone who is familiar
with conditions which have existed
in Auburn for the past several
years is the increased interest
which is being taken in student
activities. Although it cannot be
said that it is the greatest which
has ever been shown here, it must
be stated that it shows a most decided
increase over last year or any
year within the recollection of most
of the students who are now enrolled
at Auburn-
The Literary Societies have for
the most part practically doubled
their last year's attendance and enrollment.
One of them has so many
members that it is proving to be a
difficult problem to give each member
an opportunity to serve twice
on the program during the semester
in order that he »r she may get
their quality points. All of Jhem
are showing more enthusiasm than
has been shown in such work
since the ofa days when they almost
turned Auburn into a debating
union.
Besides the Literary Societies, all
the other student organizations are
receiving greater attendance than
• they have ever before received.
Particularly is this true of the
Dramatic Club or Auburn Players.
Their success of last year has contributed
largely to their increased
popularity of -this year. But this
is not all; increased interest is being
manifested in the Engineering,
Chemical, Pharmaceutical and Architectural
Societies, as well as
others. The Agricultural Club has
always shown real enthusiasm and
"pep" and the good work is being
kept up this year. The whole bunch
of clubs and societies' seems to be
in the run and it is difficult to say
which is attracting the greatest
amount of interest.
Perhaps this increased interest
is due in, part to the promise of
quality points for attendance upon
these societies and service on the
programs, but there are other reasons
as well. At any rate, let it
be said that it is indeed an auspicious
sign, and it is to be hoped
that this interest will not wane but
continue to grow and spread.
Southern Colleges Show
Increased Enrollment
Now that the dust of registration
has somewhat settled it may be
interesting to note the figures of
registration as compiled by the
leading colleges of the South- From
our exchanges it can readily be
seen that there is one general ten
dency, and that is that the young
men and young women of the South
0 i
are taking advantage of a higher
education in increasing numbers
every year. It is also interesting
to note that other colleges than Au
burn have their housing problems,
In nearly every college in the South
classrooms are filled to over-flowing
and dormitories and boarding
houses are taxed to their capacity".
Numerical results of the registration
at Southern colleges follow:
Emory University 2000-
Furman University 500
University of Texas £"3750
University of Alabama —1850
L. S. U. -- ...1315
Howard CoJIege 600
Birmingham-Southern 600
University of Florida 1500
Mississippi A. & M. 1170
Woman's College of Alabama.. 400
Mississippi State College for
Women 1175
Figures on the registration of
other Southern colleges are not
available at the present time, but
it is safe to assume that the figures
given above are representative of
those in all Southern colleges.
What Tiger Opponents
Are Doing
A glance at the list below reveals
at least two important things. First
is that Auburn has six hard games
remaining on her schedule, and
second, that although each of her
opponents are strong, their goals
have been crossed during the first
three games of the season. However
this should not necessarily indicate
that they will be crossed
again, as the teams always strengthen
their defense as the season progresses,
though it shows that this
defense is by no means impregnable.
There is one sure thing, and
that is they will get another severe
trial when they meet the Tigers.

To date the goal line of the'
Plainsmen has not been crossed,
but this can be attributed largely
to the fact that the teams met have
not been as strong as soiree encountered
by the opposition. Centre's
decisive victory over Clemson
was on their home soil and while
Auburn was only able to tie the
Carolina Tigers, this was their
first battle of the season and on
the home grounds of the latter.
Mrs. Hugh (Gob) Wilson
Organizes S. S. Class
"The Tiger Class" is the name
that has been chosen, by a newly
organized men's club in the 'Presbyterian
Church. The Club promises
to be startlingly different from
i
anything of the kind in Auburn, or
so far as known, in the State. It
•meets during the Sunday School
hour, is open dply to A. P. I. students,
and has laid out a program
that will be of interest to any Au-burp
man.
The class, or club, has business
and social meetings in the evening
about every second week and the
plans as laid out at the first evening
meeting at the home of Coach
"Gob" Wilson indicate the promise
of the class as a live wire organization.
Plans are laid for various
entertainments for the club members,
and for presenting a vaudeville
show in Langdon Hall in the
near' flture.
Instead of the usual Sunday
School program and Bible study,
the Tiger class will offer a series
of talks by prominent Alabama
citizens. Dean Petrie of the History
Department, will open the
series October 21 with a talk on
the "Japanese Disaster" The following
Sunday Mr. Clayton Tullis,
Sr., of Montgomery, will' be the
speaker. He ,will be followed on
the succeeding Sunday by Major
Hatch of the Military Department,
and later by President Dowell and
other prominent speakers. The
talks will be non-sectarian and the
speakers chosen for their value as
men, to talk to men.
The teacher, or organizer, of this
interesting class is Mrs. Hugh Wilson.
Her chief interest is to pro-mote
the very best, both socially
and spiritually for Auburn men. A
cordial invitation is extended to all
Auburn men to com* to this class,
either as a member or a visitor.

Indoor Rifle'
Range Completed
The new indoor rifle range has
been completed in the basement of
the Main Building. A suitable backstop
and lighting system has been
built and everything is now ready
for those who are interested in
rifle fire. The ranges are twenty-five
arid fifty feet and is fixed so
that, seven men may fires at one
time.
The range is open from four-thirty
to nine o'clock at night and
those wishing to fire are requested
to see Captain Groves and make arrangements
with him. A number
of men on the last year's team have
already been practicing, as the University
of Tennessee has sent a
challenge for a match to be held
at an early daie. Anyone who has
had any experience with the 22

Architectural Students
Going Strong for Music
Architectural students at Auburn,
busy throughout the day with pen
and brush, have decided to vary
their daily program by adding music
in the evening. Specifically, a
double quartette is being organized
in the Department of Architecture
under the direction of- Prof. Walter
T. Rolfe, assistant to Prof. Frederick
Childs Biggin, head" of the department.
The students in the Department
of Architecture are members of the
college group with a reputation for
hard consistent work. There is
much, detail in the architectural
corfrses. To even things up' a bit
and at the same time to establish
a spirit of good fellowship and an
esprit de corps in this department
a group of students got together
and after a little investigation found
that some of them could sing. The

Ji&re And There With Auburn Men
Edited by Hugh G. Grant, Sec.-Treas. Auburn Alumni Association
J.
_-
H. Jackson, '23, dropped by
the alumni office to /pay his r^
spools and also his subscription to
the Auburn Semi-Centennial fund.
Jackson hails from Largo, Florida,
but apparently has adopted Alabama,
for he is now assistant principal
of the Walker County High
Sehool in Jasper, Ala.
In addition to teaching Chemistry,"
in which he specialized at Auburn,
and Manual Training, Jackson
is head coach of the Walker
County High School football team.
To date he has won one game, 6
i to 0, against Eldridge Baptist Acad-lemy,
and lost one, 6 to 0, to the
(Howard College scrubs. He is
["pointing" his team for the Fayette
Igame on Noveihber 16. Incidentally
Coach Jackson scrutinized closely
the plays pulled off by the Tigers
in their clash with Howard. While,
like all good coaches, he did not
commit himself there was an intimation
that the Walker County
High team would follow pretty
closely the Tiger plan of attack.
Jackson was an outstanding student
in college, being president of
his class, colonel of the Beserve
Officers Training Corps, president
of the <iamma Sigma Epsilon chemical
national honor fraternity and
a member of the Spades. He is
also a member of the Pi Kappa Alpha
fru'ernity. ,
Joel Hurt, 4r., '13, has been elected
president of the Continental
Trust Company in Atlanta, according
i to information received here
this week. The Atlanta Journal
carried a lengthy sketch of Hurt's
vements, excerpts of which
follclw:
"Jlection of" Joel Hurt, Jr., as
dent of the Continental Trust
any to fill the vacancy caused
b^ the resignation of the President.
Joel Hurt, Sr., was announced
Thursday following the monthly
nleeting of the trustees of the
pre;
Comb;
company Wednesday. Joel Hurt,
Jr., is a graduate of Auburn and
has been engaged in -business since
the completion of, his education
there in 1913- His first undertaking
was the renting of the Hurt
building. Soon afterward he married
Miss Virginia Lipscomb and
moved to New York City, where
he was actively engaged for two
years in selling and erecting 'acid
and explosive plants. Moving again
to the south he became connected
in 1922 with the Continental Trust
Company as an officer.' One of his
accomplishments during the past
few months was the closing of the
lease contract with the Southern
Bell Telephone and Telegraph Company
for space in the addition to
be erected to the Hurt Building.
"Iii addition to his duties as
president of the company, Mr.
Hurt, Jr., is now directing the
work of building this extension to
the Hurt building- He is also vice-president
and chairman of the
board of directors of the Chemical
Engineering and Foundry Company
engaged in the manufacture
of heavy castings."
Auburn men representing the agricultural
department of the college
scored heavily in the intercollegiate
stock judging contest at
the Southeastern fair in Atlanta,
according to story published in the
Atlarha Journal. Here is what the
Journal-had to say in part:
"The Auburn school captured
five out of eight lots. Lot 1248—
won by F. Mullins, Alabama Agricultural
College,'Auburn, Ala. Medal
for best score in judging Hereford
cattle. Lot 1249—won by F.
Mullins, Alabama Agricultural College;

—won by ' Alabama Agricultural
College; plaque to team making

THIS DISCBEPIT GUABD
We awake on a certain recent
morning and find to- our amusement
that despotism is about to
suffer a reverse. Fellow-citizens, a
veritable Mazzini has. risen up
amongst us in the shape of a fly-by-
night clan who have apparently
remodeled the college, the village,
the nation, and bid fair to
bring forth a new universe, con-cieved
in liberty (and at the dead
of night) and dedicated to the proposition
that the • sun never rises
on the King's workmen. They have
selected for their motto "We are the
Heroes of the Night" written in
Black letters on a plate glass window.
One of their number, an impossible
fellow* was so carried
away with enthusiasm that he decided
to give his life for the cause
and accordingly proceeded to hang
himself from the village water
tank. This was apparently a mute
protest against the inadequacy of
the' present water supply. We sincerely
hope that the rest of the
Brothers of the Darkness will find
sufficient grievance to emulate the
praiseworthy removal. Strange to
say the daily affairs of the village
have pursued the even tenor of
their way, and as yet the dread
arm of the Sons and Grandsons of
We Are Dissatisfied has hot reached
out to pluck any of our deposed
confreres from our midst. This,
we predict, is the ominous calm before
the storm. This storm -will
occur in the near future in the form
of more red letters on a black billboard
and will sweep" all misbe-havers
before it in a fury of biting
sarcasm and misspelled words. Bu-mor
has it that Guard Mounting will
,be suspended during the early part
of November owing to the scarcity
of black paint and the fact that
Diana has been refractory enough
to continue . her habit of shining
stubbornly about that time.

the rich blackness of charcoal
though retaining it own metallic
luster. jl^
" 'In' freehand drawing, proportion,
arrangement and subject matter
are natural divisions for study.
Taken separately and analyzed, a
method of drawing may be evolved
whereby the average student will
• find his problems much simplified-
" It is possible, and is here attempted,
to set forth the different
steps in drawing in an order
which, if the student will train
himself to follow habitually, should
result in much efficiency and progress
in drawing.
" 'Practice being more important
than method or text, all possible
unnecessary detail in this has
been avoided.'
"The chapters deal with 'Pencil
and Paper,' 'Masses and Planes,'
'Line,' 'Values and Rendering,'
'Composition' and 'Indication and
the Sketch.' And the subject is
treated simply and plainly. It is
a book which will appeal both to
the student and to the layman or
woman who is interested in pencil
drawing.
"But it is the illustrations which
made the book doubly interesting.
They are splendidly done, and hav6
• " a pleasing quality and a directness
which is unusual. Two of Mr.
Sprafling's sketches are reproduced
here—but those which illustrate
the book are strictly architectural
drawings, and are treated as such,
although they are beautiful things,
both in method and design. The
frontispiece is a drawing of north
tower of the cathedral at Chartres,
and there is a sketch of the strange
old round towers of Chaumont, as
well as drawings of the tower of
St. Germain-de-Auxerrois at Paris,
and sketches of streets in Rouen.
Old house's in Eureux make a fas-t
cinating plate, and the lodge and
pylon, gate of Orangery at Ver-
' sailles, is very well done. One of
the outstanding pictures is that of
the cloister of St. Trophime at
Aries, and another is the portal of
the Louis XI wing of the chateau
at Blois.
"All in all, the book is characteristic
of the fine things which
are being accomplished by the artists
and writers of the Vieux
Carre." ,
CARSON ADAMS
ADDRESSES STUDENTS
(Continued from Page 1)
are practically objects of charity."
The speaker urged the students
to begin to think seriously of
life by the time they nave
reached the age of 20 to 25
at least. He added he did not
mean that it was necessary to
go about with Jong faces or to take
the joy out of life, but simply to
begin to think of one's obligations
in life, particularly the matter of
saving something for old age. He
cited ExrGovernor Braxton Bragg
Comer as a typical case of a man
who although well above the half
century mark, is still alert both
mentally and physically.
Mr. Adams also spoke of the life
of Edward Bok, former editor of
the Ladies Home Journal, who,
landing in this country at the age
of six, achieved great success and
now at the age of a little past 50
has achieved his life's ambition to
retire from private business and
enter upon the business of improving
the welfare of the people. Mr.
Adams added that it was not necessary
in order to have examples
before one to go back in the usual
way to George Washington and
Benjamin Franklin. He said there
are outstanding, successful men
living today.
In introducing Mr. Adams, Dr.
Dowell referred to him as one of
three men who made possible the
subscription for Greater Auburn in
the Birmingham district during the
Semi-Centennial campaign. Mr
Adams was chairman of the Greater,
Auburn drive in Birmingham.
He was also chairman of the War
Work. Council in Alabama during
the World War and chairman of
the second Liberty Loan campaign
in Birmingham.
As a result of Mr. Adam's work,
Dr. Dowell pointed out, Alabama
was put on the world map as one
of the twelve states which went
over the top in the over subscription
of the quota assigned during
the World War, Mr. Adams receiving
a key to a hut in France in
recognition of the achievement.
SPLENDID MEETING
FRIENDSHIP COUNCIL
(Continued from Page 1)
— a_
on the^op. Mr. Grant pledged his
support and assistance to the Council
in anything that he might be
able to do.
Major H. W. Sweet in well chosen
words then gave a talk on "The
Aims and Purposes of the Friendship
Council." He told in clear
cut terms just what the "Y" and
especially the Council as its vitm
organ were standing for and how
important it was that these things
riot be allowed to fall down. He
emphasized the three phases of a
student's life—physical, mental and
spiritual—and told what connection
the work of the organization
had with each.
The remaining few minutes of
the hour were given over to talks
on their experiences at Blue Ridge
during the past summer by W. E.
Glenn and P. T. Ray. They told in
a most interesting manner how attractive
everything was there for
one who is really interested in the
social and spiritual side of the student's
life. The Council was then
favored with a quartet by four of
its members.
The Council agreed, to meet on
every other Friday night and to
give the second Friday in each
month to a monthly banquet which
they usually have.. Everything
points to a most successful year for
the Friendship Council which has
grown to be about the strongest
and most influential organization
on the campus.
Ag. Fair Success
The annual Ag. Fair given on the
afternoon and night of September
12, over on Ag. Hill was all that it
was advertised and expected to be
—a howling success.
This fair was better in several
respects than any previous one.
In the past, everything has been
crowded into the night, but this
year the time was extended so as
to include the afternoon, which
gave more time to examine the various
exhibits. All the displays
were especially interesting and original
and more room was provided
for them this year by having
them in the main Agricultural
Building principally, instead of in
the smaller buildings as heretofore.
An up-town parade was put on
at five o'ulock in the afternoon in
order to encourage more to come
out to the Show which was staged
at seven o'clock in the pavilion of
the Animal Husbandry Hangar.
Whether the parade got the people
out is not known, but it is a fact
that an over-flowing house was
present to enjoy the fun-branch of
the fair.. The Annual Wheel-Barrow
Polo Contest between the
Sophomores and the Rats offered
some rare amusement. After a hard
struggle the "Sophs" emerged the
victor, eight to seven. A very
clever "shocking" stunt was pulled
on a number of the Agricultural
professors. Another feature of
the Show was a Fashion Show of
the latest costumes by a number of
Auburn's Co-eds. The show cattle
of the College were exhibited also,
but not in artificial "dress."
Refreshments were served thru-out
t h e F a i r and the proceeds from
this'aiid th'e Show will be added to
the funds of Ihe'Ag. Club Library
for the' purchase of reference books
and other needed publications. AH
records were smashed in the
amount of proceeds made this year,
Mr. B. P- Livingston, Business
Manager of the Fair, and his assistants
deserve hearty" praise for
the efficient and successful manner
in which they put this big event
across.
Items Of Interest
Alice Cary, who was a member of
the freshman class two years ago,
but who has been a student at
Loussane, France, for the past year,
returned home recently and has
enrolled in college. While abroad
Miss.Cary visited many points of
interest. She spent the Christmas
holidays in the Alps and in visiting
Italy, while just before her return
she spent twp weeks in Paris.
Gladys Copeland, .another member
of the graduating class of '23,
and also a teacher in the Sidney
Lanier High School, spent the
week end with her parents, Mr.
and Mrs. W. D. Copeland of Auburn.

Auburn Stock Judging
Team Makes Good
The Auburn stock judging team
journeyed to Atlanta on October 8
to take part in the intercollegiate
stock judging contest, which is an
event held in conjunction with the
Southeastern Fair. The high standard
set by former teams representing
Auburn was followed in part
by the team this year; however, on
the averages for all kinds of livestock,
Auburn was not the first
team, North Carolina taking that
honor.
Auburn won all honors on cattle
judging, both individual and team
prizes, and Auburn's total winnings
were greater than that of all the
other teams. Auburn took four out
of seven . prizes offered and also
took half the money offered as
prizes. The team winnings were a
plaque offered by the Guernsey
Breeders' Association, and a sliver
loving cup given by the Quaker
Oats people.- These were both giv-

all breeds of cattle.
Auburn also had the highest individual
scorer in Mr. Felton Mul-lins.
Mullins took the gold medal
offered % the Hereford Breeders'
Association, the one offered by the
Shorthorn Breeder's Association,
for the best judge of Herefords and
of Shorthorns respectively, and also
took the fifty-dollar prize offered
by the Fair Association for the
highest individual score on all
breeds of livestock.
North Carolina, South Carolina,
Georgia and Alabama were states
represented in the contest.
The Auburn team was iomposed
of the following men: R. L. Tait,
J. W. Fant, Felton Mullins, and S.
H. Gibbons. The coach was Mr.
A. A. Lauderdale of the Animal
Husbandry Department.
You can't believe all that you
