Publications Board
Interviews Candidates
Decision of Board Will be Made
Public Monday Afternoon
A searching spotlight was train­ed
on aspirants for publications
positions when the Publications
Board interviewed candidates at
a meeting here Tuesday afternoon.
Appearing for individual inter­views
before the Board, the sev­en
office-seekers were thorough­ly
quizzed on their qualifications
and intentions in the event of
election. Actual qualifying of can­didates
was deferred, however,
until a meeting of the Publica­tions
Board on Monday afternoon
at 4 p.m.
Included in the group who sup­ported
their applications to the
Board were Warren Darty, unop­posed
candidate for business man­ager
of the Plainsman; Ed Paul
and Bill "Trigger" McGehee,
both running for editor of the
Glomerata; Boots Stratford and
Dan Hollis, seekers of the editor­ship
of the Plainsman; Ed Weld-en
and Kirk Newell, opponents
for the post of business manager
of the Glomerata.
Final judgment on the qualifi­cations
will be made public Mon­day
afternoon.
Appointed to the sub-commit­tee
to pass on the business man­agers
were W. T. Ingram, Prof.
J. E. Roop, Hankins Parker, Rob­ert
Armstrong, Ed McCowan. On
the sub-committee to study appli­cations
of editors are Prof. J. R.
Rutland, Kirtley Brown, Betty
Showalter, Charles Kelley, John
Godbold, Rollins Aldridge.

RALPH PEARSON
LECTURESTONIGHT
ON 'MODERN ART'
Talk Slated for 8:15;
Lecturer Has Had Wide
Experience in Many Fields
Expert information on modern
art is in store for Auburn students
and townspeople who attend the
lecture here this evening by Ralph
M. Pearson in Langdon Hall at
eight, the semi-final feature of the
current Auburn Concert and Lec­ture
series. The subject of Mr.
Pearson's illustrated lecture will
be "Development of Modern Art."
Mr. Pearson originated the ex­periment
in adult art education
known as the Design Workshop at
the New School for Social Re­search
which he still directs. He
has written many magazine arti­cles
and two well-known books on
art, "Portfolio of Etched Book­plates"
and "Fifty Prints of the
Year 1925."
Besides his artistic endeavors,
Mr. Pearson has had a life full
of adventure. Once he built a
35 foot cabin cruiser and took a
round trip from Chicago down the
Mississippi, through the Gulf of
Mexico, around the coast to New
York, and through the Erie Canal
and Great Lakes back to Chicago.
Pearson also spent several years
once in the pioneer development
of aviation, principally the build­ing
of safe aeroplane motors and
tractor biplanes.

and Blade banquet at 6:30 in the
banquet hall of the Baptist
Church, at which each Blade man
will present his date with a small
saber as a favor.
Dancing is scheduled to begin

MAURICE HINDUS
TO SPEAK HERE
TOMORROWNIGHT
'What Next in Europe?'
Will be His Subject;
Last on Lecture Series
Maurice Hindus, distinguished
journalist and lecturer, will speak
in Langdon Hall Saturday night
as the final feature of the 1940
Concert Series. His subject, as an­nounced
by the Lecture Series
Committee, is "What Next in Eu­rope?"
Hindus will come here as an
added attraction to the regular
schedule of concerts and lectures,
and season tickets will not be good
for the performance. Tickets, now
on sale at prices of twenty-five
cents for students and fifty cents
for faculty members and towns­people,
may be purchased from
International Relations Club mem­bers
or' from the News Bureau on
the first floor of Samford Hall.
The lecturer will be expected to
discuss both the Russo-Finnish
and the Anglo-French-German
conflicts. He is familiar with the
set-up in Europe through many
journalistic missions there, and is
as competent as any man in the
lecturing field to predict coming
events in the struggles now in
progress on that continent.
During Hitler's triumph over
Poland last fall, Hindus was in
Warsaw, and will be expected in
the course of his lecture to speak
of his experiences during that
crisis.
A number of Hindus' books
may be found in the API library,
including "Green Worlds", "We
Shall Live Again," and "Red
Bread."

Dress Up The Band
THE Auburn band, as it plays
for military parades and re­views
and thrills spectators at
football games with its stirring
music, has done much for and is
certainly a credit to Auburn; and
we hereby put in a plea that this
fine unit be furnished uniforms
more in accordance with the
status of the school it represents
and the wonderful music that it
plays.
The band already has ear ap­peal
to spectators, and snappier
uniforms along with the loosen­ing
of such regulations that pre­vent
all but the simplest maneu­vers
and formations would give
it eye appeal as well.
We want no flamboyant uni­forms
such as many college bands
wear which reek so of the cir­cus,
but rather an attractive yet
dignified outfit which would em­body
the now almost traditional
orange and blue cape. The cape;
a dark blue coat of military cut
with orange shoulder straps, la­pel
facings and cuffs and a bit
of gold braid and white Sam
Erowne belts for the officers; and
trousers of a lighter blue with
orange stripes down the seam
would be one of many striking
combinations possible.
The school is dressing up-; why
not dress the band up! B.S.
Why Not An
Outdoor Pool?
AS facilities for the use of Au­burn
varsity athletes increase,
the need of the many Auburn
athletes that indulge in sports
merely for the recreation af­forded
is more clearly seen.
For the benefit of these ath­letes,
some several new tennis
courts are abuilding and will be
ready for use this spring. But an­other
sadly lacking recreational
facility that would hold an even
more universal appeal to stu­dents
is an outdoor swimming
pool.
There is no apparent reason
why the school and the town of
Auburn shouldn't get together
and build a pool and charge a
small admission until it is paid
for or, failing that, why shouldn't
some smart business man about
town build such a pool?
As things stand now, students
have to go all the w a y to
Wright's Mill or Opelika to en­joy
a swim: a pool h e r e,
with a dance pavilion, open from
the first of May through both
summer school sessions 'till the
end of September, would certain­ly
bring in enough revenue from
students and townspeople alike
to make the plan feasible. And,
more than that, it would be an
attractive asset to both the school
and the town of Auburn. B.S.
Keep On Following Huey
THE LATE lamented patron saint
of Louisiana State University,
Huey Long, had a great many bi­zarre
ideas about education and a
great many more which weren't
so bizarre. Certainly no college
ever increased its stature, or had
it increased, more quickly than
Huey's beloved LSU.
Among the Kingf ish's minor but
still practical ideas about how to
run a college was his belief that
the walks on a campus should be
laid according to the specifications
of the students who used them. In­stead
of arbitrarily laying walks
with the help of geometry and
without particular reference to
convenience, the Kingfish laid his
walks along the paths made by the
students of LSU in finding the
shortest distance between two
points.
Auburn, although never the pro­tege
of a Kingfish, has followed
this plan of letting the students
define the walks. Paths cobweb our
campus from Samford Hall around
by Ag Hill to Vet Hill.
The only defect in Auburn's sys­tem
of walks is that the walks are
narrow paths in dry weather and
rivulets in wet weather. We wish
Auburn would keep on following
Huey, at least as far as getting our
w a l k s streamlined and water­proofed.
R.S.
Wake Up, Freshmen
IT'S too bad that many freshmen
find their English course the
least inspiring of their classes.
They complain that grammar is
silly, reading boring books is a
waste of time, and the exactness
of form required by the profes­sor
is tyrannical.
Never Completely Learned
Of all the subjects studied,
one's native tongue is the study
that is most used. It is a subject
that can never be completely
. learned. It can never be exhaust­ed.
That one should complain be­cause
one is forced to still at­tempt
learning grammar in col­lege
is strange.
The other day a coed said that
she had decided that the classics
are "as boring as everyone says
they are." But unless one has a
solid foundation (a hackneyed
phrase but an apt one) in the
classics one fails to appreciate the
books of today that may be the
classics of tomorrow. For with­out
the possession of the heritage
that knowledge of the classic
gives, one misses the joy of recog­nitions
and allusions in more
modern books.
Theme Paper Tyranny
The tyranny of the professor
who is particular as to the form
of a theme paper is not so much
tyranny as it is a lesson in good
manners. There is a correct way
to treat even a professor. Drill­ing
in good form will serve to
form automatic good habits in
writing.
All of this has been said be­fore.
Everything that an English
professor tells his freshmen has
been taught them before. But as
long as they listen with deaf ears
and read with blind eyes they
have no right to complain that
the professor is not making his
material interesting; they are not
giving him a chance to be.
Sometimes a professor may say
something worth listening to.
Southern Pines
Make Paper
THE dream of Dr. Charles Her-ty,
noted Georgia chemist, who
spent the last eight years of his
life perfecting the process that
makes it possible to evolve news­print
on a commercial scale from
southern timber, has become a
reality and is destined to grow.
The Lufkin Daily News, of
Lufkin, Texas, recently became
the first newspaper to be printed
for regular run on southern pine
stock. The paper used was made
in a new $6,000,000 newsprint
plant outside Lufkin.
The enormous potential reve­nue
from the newsprint market
is obvious and the tall pines that
whisper in Southern forests may
be expected to play an important
part in the South's future wel­fare.

Letters to the Editor
Wherein a Plainsman Writer
Is Called Down
Re: "A Disease is
Not a Disgrace"
Editor,
Auburn Plainsman,
Auburn, Ala.
Dear Sir:
In regard to the editorial "A Disease
is Not a Disgrace" — the gentleman
submitting the article advises that the
disease in the primary stage "may
cause a rash similar to pox or measles."
This is definitely misleading since the
primary stage is evidenced by the "in­itial
sclerosis" or chancre, which ap­pears
about twenty-one days after the
infection. In about six weeks after the
beginning of the primary lesion, more
or less generalized cutaneous manifes­tations
appear. The last mentioned in­terval,
usually described as the second
incubation period, may extend over a
period of from four to twelve weeks.

On the Ride Catching Situation
Dear Ed.:
When after a few hours of plain­tive
calling, a student (dressed in uni­form
or cap) finally persuades a kind­ly
motorist to stop; the question that
is almost always asked before he gets
to the car window is, "Do you go to
school at Auburn?"
Nine out of ten of the hitchhikers
can truthfully say yes, but the tenth
one cannot. By some scheme this tenth
one has begged, borrowed or stolen a
uniform or cap and is using it to catch
rides with. Of course a few will say
"If they can get away with it, then let
them do it." But those are the few
that own automobiles, and for every
one of these fortunates there are a
couple of hundred others who depend
on the friendly motorists for their
rides.
When Auburn students find it more
and more difficult to catch rides, then
they will realize what they have done.
So let's try to keep this only method
of identification among ourselves if we
expect motorists to treat us kindly in
the future.
Yours very truly,
A student.
Well?

OVER THERE—
"Old Man Weather" has come to the
aid of the Finns again just as the Reds
were about to batter their way through
the Mannerheim line near Viipuri . . .
cold blizzards swept over the battle­field
bogging down the heavy Russian
war machinery. Both sides continued to
claim smashing victories.
Nazi-British sea warfare flared a-new
during the week with censored re­ports
from each side claiming victories
for the home boys. Sumner Welles, As­sistant
Secretary of State, landed in
Rome to confer with Count Ciano, Mus­solini's
right hand man. Myron C. Tay­lor,
F.D.R.'s personal representative to
Pope Pius also went along on this dip­lomatic
mission.
OVER HERE—
F.D.R.'s "fishing cruise" to the Ca­nal
Zone got him away from the big
question that both the Elephants and
the Donkeys would like so very much to
know—"will he run for a third term?"
. . . Up in Birmingham, Cooper Green,
"the people's choice" swept into the
office as President of the City Commis­sion
of that city by a landslide vote
over his "mud-slinging" opponent. The
first preferential presidential primary
held over in Donaldsonville, Ga., show­ed
a decided majority favor F.D.R. for
third term . . . meanwhile other pref­erential
primaries were approaching at
various points in the nation. Opinion
polls continued to show an increasing
trend of opinion favoring a third term.
HERE AT THE PLAINS—
The Varsity Debate Team left on a
tour through Mississippi and Tennessee
last Monday, meeting as many as two
colleges a day in arguments over cur­rent
questions. . . .
The Glomerata has decided to run an
extra page in their annual scrap book,
making a total of 401 pages this year.
The extra page will concern the open
warfare recently declared by the op­posing
publication f o r c e s — THE
PLAINSMAN and the glomerata. In an
unquotable statement yesterday after­noon,
Stooge Kelley made it plain that
the extra added page, which incidental­ly
will be tinted red, being the color
for "blood", would certainly do the
semi-weekly publication "no good".
Chief Grafter Hank Parker could not
be reached for a statement when the
paper went to press today, but it was
confidentally reported that the back of
the extra page would be "done up in
yellow advertisement".
But enough of that. The Executive
Council will make a report next week
on the proposed anti-cheating cam­paign.
It is hoped that some line of
action may be adopted to remedy this
situation. The point the majority of
students need to understand, however,
is that no one is proposing an "Honor
System", it is simply a campaign to do
away with cheating.
Meanwhile the Executive Cabinet
makes plans for making further revis­ions
to the student government consti­tution.
. . . Other plans include a new
name for the Cabinet. . . . We think
that the name Student Senate would
be appropriate.
Another new proposal of a member
of the Cabinet is to organize the presi­dents
of all organizations on the camp­us
into a form of "advisory legislature",
to make suggestions on work for the
Cabinet, and to help educate their vari­ous
organizations on new acts and pro­grams
of the Cabinet. This year this
group of orgization presidents have
been greatly helpful in handling such
problems as Religious Emphasis Week
and the Anti-Cheating Campaign. We
believe that a more compact body of
this sort would be of great help toward
better student government.

WE WUZ secretely wedded to Karrie
last night in a nearby town. Since we
have been keeping company for almost
a year now, and be­cause
it is Leap Year,
Karrie popped t he
question while we
were still in the "I
like you better than
any girl I ever knew"
stage.
Karrie said t he
neighbors were talk­ing,
and that if we
were honorable in
our intentions, now
was the time to show it. The respon­sibility
of married life has made us
lose our usual carefree attitude, and
we are now a perfect example of do­mestic
tranquility.
* * *
Changing rules so much, we feel like
Mobile used to. Working under three
editors in less than two weeks is some
sort of a record, not to mention being
quite confusing.
Stratford's entry into the editorial
race opposing Hollis has provided op­position
in one race usually character­ized
by only one contestant, and Pruitt's
announcement closed the gap of un­opposed
candidates by giving Jim King
a rival.
* * *
Tuesday's Plainsman stated that from
over 300 Wassermans given, not one
negative specimen of blood had been
found. And we thought that Mr. and
Mrs. Alabama sent their boys and girls
to Auburn to get an education!
* * *
Gleaned from the files . . .
We are the peasants;
The peasants are we.
We are the peasants of Rolling Green.
Do not roll on the Green,
The Green is for the King.
The King is for the Prince.
What Prince? Footprints? Fingerprints?
Tweet, tweet (whistle). Here, Prince!
Here comes the Prince.
The Prince look like the devil.
Clang, clang, here comes the devil.
"I am the devil."
"The devil you are!"
"The hell I'm not!"
* * *
Kissing doesn't shorten life; it just
makes the time pass more quickly.
* * *
Guard: Who goes there?
Trespasser: Where?
* * *
And . . .
Mary had a little lamb
That always had to go.
And everywhere that Mary went,
The lamb would give a show.

Salesman: Yes sir, what is your pleas­ure?
Potential customer: Necking and
drinking, but what I want to know is,
do you sell shirts here?
* * *
On more . . .
Two hearts
One diamond
Seven no trump
One club
Two spades and a pine box.
* * *
And our advice for cold treatment...
Go to bed, keep warm, but not too
warm, drink soda water hourly, drink
lots of fruit juices, take copious doses
of suitable medicine, sleep as much as
possible, have fresh air, but not blow­ing
on you, and keep as quiet as pos­sible.
Your cold should be over in two
weeks.
On the other hand, stay up late,
sleep in wind, get feet wet, eat and
drink as you please, get cold and hot
alternately, and above all, be active.
You will be completely recovered in
14 days.

Freshman Trounces
Seniors In Ag Club
"Quiz" Contest
AN odd experiment conducted before
the Ag Club last Wednesday night show­ed
that freshmen seem to know more
on practical questions relating to ag­riculture
than seniors. In a "Professor
Quiz" contest the freshman team de­cidedly
whipped the senior contingent.
The experiment was conducted on a
program presented by the Sears Roe­buck
Scholarship Club and was prepar­ed
by Merlin Bryant, junior in agricul­ture.
Townsend (Kay) Kyser acted as
the "Old Professor."
Four outstanding seniors, all officers
of the Ag Club, and two of whom were
recently selected by Gamma Sigma Del­ta,
national honorary agricultural fra­ternity,
were pitted against four fresh­men
who were simply picked at random
from the audience. The seniors who
competed in the contest were Fred
Wellborn, president of the club; Ra-vonn
Pettis, vice-president; Jack Cagle,
secretary; and Fred Harlin, treasurer.
Four practical questions relating to
agriculture were asked each of the
contestants in the first round. The con­testants
selected the questions from a
hat, and then attempted to answer the
question. At the end of the first round,
Fred Wellborn and Ravonn Pettis were
tied in score for the senior group.
Freshman Tom Bullington was high
scorer in the "rat" group.
In the final round, Bullington scored
300 out of a possible 400 points. The
two seniors scored only 184 points, on
two questions each, out of the possible
400. The freshman, by himself, had
soundly whipped the two seniors.
And what do you think of that? It
just goes to show that the longer you
go to college the less you know.
EDITOR'S NOTE: In Tuesday's
front page "Wasserman" story, the
obvious error— "—are well over
three hundred. Of this number,
not one negative specimen of blood
has been discovered"—was made.
For the sake of the record, the
story should have read "not one
positive specimen of blood has been
discovered."
There was a beautiful garden
And there was a man within
And there was a perfect woman
And there was no thought of sin.
And there were flowers and sun­shine
Sparkling on hill and plain
But how could they know the sun­shine
Before they had known the rain?
There they were blest and honored
Above all the future race
But what could they know of honor
Before they had felt disgrace?
How could they know they were
happy
Until they had drunk of woe
How could he know she was perfect
When everything else was so?
Such life was but half of living
And by all things above
Until they had suffered together
How could they know of love?
Kisses Kill Cold Germs!
THE theory of a prominent physician
that kissing generates enough heat
to kill germs and makes for better cir­culation
of health last night was under­going
a severe test on the campus of
the University of California.
There has been an epidemic of colds
and influenza at the university and the
physician said it might be due to a
laxity of student kissing, much to re­lief
of the students who were alarmed
at word that university officials were
considering a two-month ban on kissing
to halt the epidemic.
The undergraduates' u n e x p e c t e d
benefactor was Dr. Simon L. Katzoff,
consulting physician with the San Fran­cisco
institute of human relations for
20 years.
Must Be Real Kits
"The University people have forgot­ten
their chemistry," chided Katzoff.
"Kissing generates enough heat to de­stroy
the germs and it builds up resist­ance.
A genuine kiss is like an electric
current magnetized by the masculine
and feminine polarities.
"And I don't mean the kind between
Mrs. Brown and Mrs. Jones at the Tues­day
bridge club," he added stressing
that the antiseptic virtue lay in the vi­rility.
Only thus, he said, was kissing
self-purifying.
"Besides, the modern girl uses enough
lipstick and other paint to kill any
germ," Katzoff continued. "There is no
need for hauling around a jug of di­luted
carbolic acid to wash with after
every kiss.
"If there is an influenza epidemic at
the university, I might suggest there
has not been enough kissing lately.
Come to think of it, they just got over
their winter exams, and probably they
have been too busy."
"Married couples should kiss more,"
Katzoff added. "It makes for better
circulation and better health, mental­ly
and physically.

WORDS on
MUSIC
By JIMMY GILBERT
Looks like the rising young rhy­thm
tune this week is "Tuxedo
Junction", brain child of Erskine
Hawkins. Everywhere I go, I run
into previews and favorable com­ments
on this fine "jookin'"
piece. One of the best renditions
to date is by the local Knights,
batoneered by Bobby Adair. They
play an arrangement based on the
stock orchestration by E. Haw­kins,
before mentioned as the
proud papa of said killer-diller.
When I say it's the up and com­ing
song on the campus, kids, I
really mean it. Other Knight pre­views
bring to the fore none oth­er
than Robin (Humoresque) Rus­sell's
new latest arrangement. The
title is "Starlit Hour", and Polly
Hallman does the vocal. Polly ac­cents
the well known "pleading"
tones in another of her latest —
"Would'ja Mind?". Nice!!
And the above brings me to my
pet record this week. It's that
Baker gal again—this time with
"Pinch Me", and "Would'ja
Mind?". (I know, you just got
through reading about Polly sing­ing
it. Well, Bonnie pleads on it
too.) Naturally, it's Orrin Tuck­er's
orchestra on a Columbia re­cord.
Orrin also plays and vocal­izes,
on another disc, "Many
Dreams Ago", and "Twilight In­terlude".
The latter can't be beat
for creating that dreamy mood.
Another Columbia platter.
In the "beat it out" depart­ment,
Wingy Manone does "When
the Saints Go Marching In" and
"Sudan". The former reeks of
Louie Armstrong — the latter is
slightly tom-tomish. Both Good.
(Bluebird). Oldie "Three Little
Words" and newie "You're a
Lucky Guy" are good and swingy.
Gene Krupa and Kats on Colum­bia.
Duke Ellington plays two of
his own compositions, "Grievin"
and "Tootin Through the Roof".
Nothing extra. This is another
Columbia disc, as is "I'd Love to
Call You My Sweetheart" and
"Drummin Man" by ex-Goodman-ite
Krupa again. Hep to these,
cats. They're good.
"What Every Young Girl Should
Know" is sweet in spite of the
title. Harry Babbitt sings with
Kay Kyser's Band. Sully Mason
Jills up the other side with "Holy
Smoke". Good. Columbia.
Radioites, we're starting a new
section this week. This paragraph,
under the name of "Swinging
Through the Week", will suggest
a well known band to listen to
each night of the week. This week
—Monday: Glenn Miller at eleven.
NBC—Tues.: Bob Crosby at 10:-
45. CBS—Weds.: Tommy Dorsey
at 10:30. NBC — Thurs.: Larry
Clinton at 11:15. WSB, Atlanta
—Friday: Count Basie at 11:00,
NBC.
Success Story: The wandering
minstrels known hereabouts as
the Auburn Cavaliers are at pres­ent
installed in the Claridge Ho­tel
in Memphis. New baton swing­er
is none other than Col. Manny
Prager—ex Ben Bernie boy. Nice
going.
Local note: The torrid, torchy,
trumpet tooting Hatcher, popular­ly
known as Chick, managed to
survive both the measles and the
infirmary this past week. Con­grats,

AC ENGINEERING
CLUB BECOMES
MEMBER OF ASAE
The Agricultural Engineering
Club which was formed locally
last October has recently been ac­cepted
as a student branch of the
American Society of Agricultural
Engineers.
Due to the efforts of several
students in Agricultural Engineer­ing,
the local club was formed
last fall and a constitution was
drawn up and submitted to the
national society.
The club which meets every
Tuesday night at 7:00 o'clock is
often entertained by prominent
agricultural men and movies.
Plans are now underway for se­curing
the new Westinghouse
movie, which will probably be
presented in the near future at
a joint meeting of ASAE and the
Ag Club.
Officers for the first semester
were: Prank Clayton, president;
F. W. Weaver, vice-president;
Carl Morgan, secretary; and Char­les
Rollo, treasurer.. Shortly after
notice that the club had been ac­cepted,
new officers were elected.
These are: Lawrence Ennis, presi­dent;
Carl Morgan, vice-president;
Tom Hereford, secretary; and
James Green, treasurer.
The club urges that all men
taking Ag Engineering be pres­ent
at the weekly meetings on
Tuesday nights.

"ESTIMATES ARE GLADLY GIVEN"
Positions Are
Well Fortified
The sharp smack of ball on
glove and bat resounded over the
baseball diamond this week as
Auburn's 1940 willow wielders
under the direction of Coach Port­er
Grant moved into action. Al­though
hurt considerably by the
loss of clutch hitter Mai Morgan,
ace pitcher Dick Swindle and
smart fielder Hunky Bazemore,
the Tigers still look good enough
on paper to give an excellent ac­count
of themselves.
The catching detail of Red
Caudill and Dick McGowen, both
of whom lettered behind the bat,
returns intact although McGowen
is busy at present with spring
training; Ralph Fraser, soph
sensation, returns to his first base
position.
Kenmore and Rollo are candi­dates
for the second base posi­tion
though Jumpin George may
be shifted to third to fill Mor­gan's
vacated place. Carl Happer,
also engaged in spring training,
is another strong contender for
either second or third.
McCluskey and McNair, anoth­er
spring trainer, will put on a
dogfight for the short stop post
while Hawke will be back to fill
right f i e l d , Captain Tommie
Thompson remains in center field
and Hurst will most likely take
over Bazemore's left field office.
A schedule will be announced
soon.

Pharmaceutical
Society Meets
The Student Branch of the
American Pharmaceutical Asso­ciation
held the second meeting
of the month Monday evening.
After a short business meeting
the members received a delightful
surprise in the vaudeville sketch
given by Miss Mary Mitchell, sen­ior
in Pharmacy. Miss Mitchell
gave an excellent performance
and was heartily applauded.
Correction
In regard to Tuesday's front
page story, Jim Madill, newly an­nounced
candidate for Chairman
of the Social Committee, is not a
transfer from Florida but is a
third year veterinary student at
Auburn and thus has not had any
experience with politics at Florida
as the story stated. We are glad
to make this correction.
