Beginning the' entertainment withthe entire chorus anil band singing"College Ties", the lengthy programoffered numerous popular selections ;together with a variety of classical !music.

The glee club singing a lew of theirnumbers Used on the recent trip into ISouth Carolina was good. "A Brown IBird Singing" was perhaps the bestnumber on the chorus program. I

A saw novelty played by Jack Ram- j

seur brought the audience to much ap- |plause. He entertained with two dif-1ferent well known melodies. His abil-ity to make music come from a well Irusted saw was marveled at by quite 1a number of the townsfolk and stu- Idents. 1

The Sunnyland Serenaders playing ibefore the school audience for the 1first time since Junior Speaking, gave ithe only life to the program that could; ,be found. Without the orchestra and ia number of solos there would have Ibeen little to entertain. The. jazz ren- (

dered by the orchestra was fine, es- Ipecially "Tiger Rag" and Sluefoot". (

NEW BUILDING TOHAVELARGEORGANThe $ji).(NX) three manual Skinner

pipe organ which is to he placed inthe auditorium of the new Chambersbuilding is now under construction,Dr. W. J. Martin announced recently.

Ibis organ, which is to he designedanil built especially for the new audi-torium, on account of the time re-quired to construct one of this sizewill not be completed in time for thecommencement exercises this spring.This college is to use the new build-ing f«ir its ninety-third commence-ment.

Besides the usual stops on an organof lliis type the organ ordered forthe auditorium will have chimes andis so constructed that the harp maybe added at any time. The Skinnerorgan was chosen on the advice ofexperts in this field, but only aftera very thorough investigation had beenmade by the committee appointed toselect the organ for the auditorium.The Skinner Organ Mfg. Co. is recog-nized by all experts to be one of theleading manufactures of pipe organsin the United States.

Officials of the college consider theschool very fortunate in being ableto purchase an organ of this size andcost. There are few colleges in theSouth who have an instrument thatwill compare with this one. It wasfound necessary to procure an organwhich would equal the new auditoriumin magnificence and beauty thereforeone of the best organs obtainable wasbought.

PROF. PSYCHOLOGYDUKE UNIVERSITYFOR THREE YEARS

Accepted by Many as GreatestAuthorityon Subject

AUTHOR OF NINE BOOKSWas Major in Royal MedicalCorps ofBritish Army During

World WarProfessor William MacDougall, who

is now head of the Psychological de-partment of Duke University will lec-ture at Shearer Hall on Friday nightat 8 P. M. The public is cordially in-vited to attend his lecture at this time.He will also attend the Psychologyclasses on Saturday, and those studentswho do not have conflicts with otheracademic duties are welcome.

Dr. MacDougall is nationally knownand is highly in demand throughoutthe country. Just previous to accept-ing the professorship at Duke, he wasprofessor of Psychology at HarvardUniversity, having gone there in 1020.He was formerly reader of mentalPhilosophy and fellow of CorpusChristi College in the University ofOxford.

This distinguished man was bornin Lancaster and received his educa-tion at Owens College, Manchester;Cambridge University; St. Thomas'sHospital. London. He was a fellow ofSt. John's College, Cambridge in 1808,and was Reader in University College.London in io.ro.

During the World War, he was anoutstanding figure. He was Majorin the Royal Army Medical,Corps in1015. During -the World War Dr.MacDaugall made some very interest-ing studies, such as medical studies onshell-shocked and gas victims. Healso travelled extensively,having spentmany years in Borneo, where he madea very interesting study of the un-civilized natives.

It was not until after the WorldWar that Dr. MacDougal came overto this country, but in this short stay

'in America, the leading scholars of the'country learned to respect and admirethis man of immense potentialities. Heis a widely read man. and is a man ofa variety of interesting experiences inthe different countries of the world.He is rated as one of the best Psycho-logists in the world and by sonic asthe greatest authority on that subject.

Some ten hooks have been writ-ten by this man dealing with variousPsychological subjects. They arenamely. "Introductions to Social Psy-chology"; "Body and Mind"; PaganTribes of Borneo; "The Group Mind""Material Welfare and NationalDecay"; "Outline of Psychology";"Ethics and Some Modern WorldProblems"; "Character and the Con-duct of Life"; "Outline of AlnoramalPsychology".

Duke holds Dr. MacDougall in veryhigh esteem, he is well loved by allthe faculty and students, and is saidto be one of the most popular mem-bers of the faculty of that college.Davidson is proud to welcome such alearned man to our college and con-siders it a great priviledge to attendthe lecture.

Friday night the Wildcats wereguests at a reception given by the Jun-iors. Every courtesy possible was shownthem. Special meals were prepared andcars were furnished them during the en-tire time they were there.

In the last debate in Davidson'i for-ensic season. Tod Hightower and El-bcrt Wallace of Birmingham Southern(Ideated Kllis Marsh ami Carl l'rit-chett, Wildcat debaters, last Fridaynight. Davidson upheld the negativeside of the question! "Resolved thatthe present system of trial b}' juryshould he substituted by a tribunal ofthree or five judges". The Binning-ham team was on a trip through NorthCarolina; they debated at N. C. StateCollege and Duke University on thesame trip.

Both the debaters are prominentnun on tin' Birmingham Southerncampus. Hoth are proficient in ora-tory: and are connected with thestudent government, Hightower, whois from Gnshcn, Ala, is also interest-ed in Y. \1. C, A. work and Wallacefrom Albuquerque, New Mexico alongliterary lines,

Unlike all other debaters whom Dav-idson nun have nut this season, thenirmingliam nun presented a detailedplan for which the Wildcat debaterswere totally unprepared, There wasalso considerable difference of opin-ion a- to the definition of a jurist, theDavidson men holding that they werejudges, while their opponents said thatthey weir simply jurors versed in thelaw. Next year there will he a re-turn debate with flirmingham Southcm, al which time the Davidson teamwill nil to Birmingham.

still attack, and bitterly, the personal,opinions of their fellow officials. Kspec-ially do they attack one another on theground! of religion and prohibition. Areligious argument is a bad one to startfor several reasons. Arguments have beenknown to grow into wars, and religiouswars are the most terrible of the species.One only has to recall the struggles inKurope which centered about the mas-sacre of St. Bartholomew's Day. To il-lustrate this, an Arab may appear dor-mant, lazy, indolent, but place him in afight against the "clogs of unbelievers"and there was never a more enthusiasticfanatic.

Hut at that, our representatives in thelegislative halls of the nation receiverather large pay for the privilege of ma-ligning one anothers' character for per-sonal reasons. It is true that the "hlixidytimes" of Jim Reed, and Henry CabotI-odge, have gone, but they will never beforgotten. Perhaps Heflin and Blease willtake their places with ardor.

It is generally admitted that GeneralMaxime Weygand, formerly First Aideto Marshal Foch, will assume the batonof the Marshal of France, the greatestmilitary honor which that country canoffer. He steps to a position which haslong been filled by the most illustrious,tactical leaders of all time. Generel Pc-tain, and "Pappa" Joffre were given thehonorary title during the World War.Rut look farther back to the days ofKapoleon, Ney and others. There weremen who spread the glory of the fleur-de-lis until it encompassed ContinentalEurope. Even D'Artagnan was offeredthe baton in "The Man of the IronMask." Oh, well, give us a few Legionof Honors, and Croix de Guerrcs, s'ilvous plait.

"U. A. R, Election is Chief Topic atWashington" proved to lie a rather start-lingheadline the other day, in lieu of thefact that the building there was oncepointed out to a visitor of the capital asbeing the scene of more bloodshed thantook place in the entire Revolution. Per-haps it was a poor pun on a worthy or-ganization, but the fact remains that withits present system of requirements formembership its exclusiveness will .lot bemaintained. In a couple of hundreds .ofyears, most anyone will be able to jointhrough one of her forty-seven thousandand some odd hundred great to the nthpower grandparents.

News comes from Staunton, Va.,S thatfurniture workers have gone on a strike,following the example set by textilelaborers. Red agitators should be effect-ively disposed of as was Eugene Debs,who perhaps is the only man who wasever nominated for President whileserving a term in the Federal Penitent-iary. But what may we ask, will thestriking textile workers sit on, if the fur-niture business "faws down and goesboom?"

Despite rather regular cries of the ex-pedition of English justice, and despiteregular deplorement of American effici-ency, the fact remains that justice gen-erally has its way. There were manywho were aghast when Leopold and Loebwere committed to the insane asylumThey are still there. Hickman, most re-pulsive of humans, met his fate after asensational tight by a young lawyer. Tocap the climax it has been ruled by su-preme court that Harry F. Sinclair, oilmagnate, must serve his ninety days injail. Money may not mean everythingafter all but we bet that he gets his"two fors" every day.

Menacing murmurings come from tin:Charlotte News. So there is a Commun-ist Club here is there? Well -1-1, (asUncle Josh Billings would say) we'd liketo meet yer. In accordance with sup-

If it were true that only richstudents had a chance of makinga success inaprofession, thenthecountry would be wasting thou-sands of dollars in the mainte-nance of medical and law schools,because rich students couldaffordto go to private institutions.

Fortunately, Mr. Darrow's ad-vice, though probably given withthe best of intentions, willnot befollowed because it sounds likethe philosophy of a pessimist.

Contemporary Thought

the annual State Track Meet willbe held. Davidson's bestbetswillbe in evidence on that clay as willa good number of Davidson stu-dents to. witness the festivities.It shouldbe so, we think. Thereis nothingso helpfulin upholdingthe reputation of a school as astudent body whicli is sure to be(in hand when the teams arc onthe testingblock.

As usual, Carolina and Dukewill more than likely lead thefield in entries. In years past, theTar Heels have far surpassedtheir competitors in men quali-fied, and as a result have walkedoff with the title most of thetime. Such a condition makes itvery hard for a college the sizeof Davidson to make a creditableshowing. Yet, the Wildcats havenever failed to win some of themost coveted places and some ofthe higfiest awards. Lacking awell-rounded track team, David-son has boasted men inthe dasheswhoknew noequal,and this yearwill be no exception to that rule.A good many points are due tofall behind the flying feet of Cur-rie, Whittle, and the rest of thespeedsters.

The thing to think about, how-ever is the prospect for the fu-ture, and we cannot help but be-lieve that Davidson is on the"erge of a new clay, not only inrack exploits,but in every

branch of athletic activity. Welong for the time when a statemeet or a title race of gridiron,diamond, or court will mean atleast an equal chance for theRed and Black. That day seemstobe coming,slowly,perhaps,butsurely. Interest is being arousedin every quarter of alumniycirclesin regard to the athletics/ of thecollege. It seems certain thatdefinite action will be taken toboost the present condition.

Soon wemayhope for the statemeet to mean more than just achance for winning two or threeplaces. Davidson is coming intoher own. Go overand watch theWildcats next week. They aregoing to bring honor to the col-lege. Don't think that the Catscan win themeet

—we won't qual-

ify enough men to win,but thosewho do get inare sure to be theclass of the day.

It's great to bring a bunch ofathletes togetherof the high typewhich will be in evidence atGreensboro. The nationcan boastof no finer lot. The keeeness ofcompetitionis inno wise lessenedby the fact that two or threeschools enter a majority of thecontestants. Manhood is devel-oped and college spirit is seareddeep into the hearts of loyal sonsat a state meet. There's a glatn-imr and a glory there.

POOR MEN'S SONSThat Clarence Darrow, nation-"

ally known criminal lawyer ofLoeb and Leopold fame, shouldmake the statement to a Nebras-kan reporter,"If you are a poorstudent, don't study law and theotherprofessions becausethe richstudents are the only ones thathavea chance in these fields,"wasbotha shock and disappointment,and was greeted with about thesame enthusiasm and welcome asa garter snake in a box of cornflakes.

This bit of fatherly advice in acollege town, to a representativeof a college paper,where most ofthe students do not happen to.berich, seems like droppinga bombin a sewing bee, at least it couldnot cause more, consternationandresentment.

Such a doctrine would fit per-fectly into the old caste system,where only land-holding nobleswere gentlemen and .nobody butnoblescould hold land. In those»ciays the most tint a peasantcould hope for was to cultivateland for his lord andmaster. Ason could do nothing but followin the footsteps of his sire.

REAL BUSINESSAs the clays draw near when

cap and gown will dominate thewalks of the campus, whenspeeches and presentations willbe the order of the hour, when,friends and relatives will throngthe college grounds, the minds ofcollege men turn to more seriousspeculation than usual. Com-mencement is a wonderful occa-sion, both to the participant andto the onlooker, and to each itoffers food for serious thought.More than anyother time of theyear it seems to speak of "realbusiness."

Seniors, rushing about in themad effort to wind up their af-fairs, stoponce in a while to won-der what it is going to be likeaway from the sound of David-'son's bell,and out of her shelter-ing walls Theyknow that a taskof great proportionsawaits them,and that peoplewillbeeveron thealert to sensure or commendtheiractions in the worldof businessorprofession. Gratificationof achievement and regretof lostopportunity vie with each otherfor top place in the training ofthought. But above all the spiritof determinationengages the out-going Senior and turns his pow-ers along the high road to suc-cess. He must make this thingoflife a "real business"— a real ac-complishment which will justifythe years of training, and whichwill entitle him to a secure placein the regard of family, friendsand teachers. Yes, it's a realbus-iness which beckons to thefourth year man.

And then, naturally. Commen-cement bring serious thoughts tothe onlookers, the under-class-men. Desire to gain the point incollege rating won by the Senioris instilled into the men who re-main, or,on the other hand, theremay come a realizationof thingsundone and a subsequent hope tosurpass the older men. Finally,the sad truth of wayspartingandpersonal contacts lost comes intothe picture. Probably this is thething which gives Commence-ment its almost sacredair. Welldo we remember seeing promi-nent Seniors leave on the last dayas quickly as possible, neglectingto speak tomany old friends, sim-ply because as they said, "I can'tstand to tell Jim good-bye"—keeping a happy memory of daystogether unmarredby a farewellwhichmight be the last. Yes, it's"real business" any wayyou look

giate, Collegiate, yes we are collegiate"have penetrated the awful and silentdepts of the dean's office. It is not awelcome tune, and something oughtto be done about it. So at the nextconvention of deans in April the wordswill be revised to read "Yes, but arewe collegiate?"

Something may eventually be doneabout it. In the meantime, a question-naire. Dean Henry Grattan Doyle ofGeorge Washington University hassent one to four hundred deans. Heasks, among many questions :

Is neatness in appearance, as evi-denced by clean shaving, well-shinedshoes, starched linen, appropriateneckties of neat appearance and well-pressed suits of clothing, typical ofyour student body? or,In the main, does the psychological

attitude of your student body approveof slouchy and careless habits of dressand conduct or neat habits of dressand courteous manners?It does not require a very keen mind

to predict what the answer to that willbe. Already the reassuring replies arecoming back. From Wesleyan:

"The present generation of studentshere, as Ilook upon them, arc well-dressed, well-behaved, a very differenttype from what we had twenty-fiveyears ago. . ..

"Speaking in general of the moralsof the community,Ifeel perfectly surethat they are on a higher plane thanthey have ever been...."

We have a pretty strong convictionthat Dean Doyle will be able to re-port at the convention that on theword of .loo deans this generation isthe best yet. (The one exception willbe Harvard, which has already re-fused to answer the questions.)

But aren't the deans waking up tothe collegiate menace two or threeyears late? Collegiatism is dying outin the colleges, though it will linger onin remote colleges, in front of drug-stores, and on vaudeville platforms fora long while. There is something ofromatic excess in the collegiate cos-tume that is out of key with theseprosaic times. Bell-bottom trousers,dh-anchored socks and such-like areas much relics of the past as is thefashion of carrying the AmericanMercury. (They read The New York-er now).

The fearful dean should read any'What Young Men Are Wearing"column in the magazines that caterto college youth. There college menare being told that a neat conserva-tive appearance is a "valuable asset"and that "anyone in the business worldwho hopes to make good is lost with-out it." The greater manufacturersdepict in full-page ads the terribletragedies that befall those who have|no "Sox Appeal" and the Arrow col-

lar people arc out gunning for the in-formal roll-collared shirt of the out-of-style "drugstore cowboy." >Eventhe coonskin coat is passing.

Other times, other manners. Thecollegiate mode is passing out. Thereason it is going is the reason whyallfashions change. The hoi polloi, drugclerks and farm hands, have caughtup with it. The next job for collegemen is to create a new fashion. Other-wise the four years would be wasted,and there would be no way to distin-guish between those who have had theprivilege of a college education andthose who have not.

POUND'S PLANAppalling as is the amount of time

wasted by unessential or unorganizedreading in college to help the studentfind an ordered plan in the mightymaze of literature. Ezra Pound in arecent issue of "Books" of the NewYork Herald-Tribune gives the stu-dents the benefit of his own experi-ence in reading.

"Literary instruction in our insti-tutions of learning' was at the be-ginning of this century, cumbrous andinefficients. Idare say it still is. Cer-tain more or less mildly exceptionalprofessors were affected by the 'beau-ties' of- various authors (usually de-ceased) but the system, as a whole,lacked sense and co-ordination, IdareSay it still does. But when studyingphysics we are not asked to investi-gate the biographies of all the dis-ciples of Newton who showed inter-est in science, but who failed to makeany discovery. Neither their unre-warded gropings, hopes, passions,laundry bills or- erotic experiences arcthrust on the hurried student or con-sidered germane to the subject."

Mr. Pound would have the studentread those books which make someepochal contribution to literature. Hesays:

"And we could, presumably, applyto the study of literature a little ofthe common sense that we currentlyapply to physics or to biology. Inpoetry there are simple procedures,and there are known discoveries clear-ly marked. As Ihave said in variousplaces in my as yet unorganized andfragmentary volumes: in each ageone or two men of genius find some-thing, and express it. It may be inonly a line or in two lines, or in somequality of a cadence; and thereaftertwo dozen, or two hundred, or twoor more thousand followers repeatand delute and modify.

"And if the instructor would selecthis specimens from works that con-tain these discoveries and solely onthe basis of discovery— which maylie inthe dimensionof depth, not mere-ly of some novelty on the surface— hewould aid his student far more thant»y presenting his authors at random,and talking about them in tot."

It is announced that the cost of FederalProhibition Enforcement in terms ofhuman life is 190 dead from violent causesin nine years. Of these 55 were FederalBgenti and 135 suspected law violators.These figures do not include those killedin State enforcement. The policy ofshooting to enforce the prohibition lavhas been severely criticized on thegrounds that it is too drastic, but itseems that if we are to have any enforce-ment at all. drastic measures must betaken.

A new victim has been chosen, or rather sucked in, to.be sacrificed on thealtar of the great god, Bull. The crime was committed in this way. It wasone of those beautiful sprint? days which occur between our rainy seasons, soIwas strolling across the campus, enjoying nature and beaming on all man-kind. Suddenly, who should show up but our well known editor. He had a nastylook in his eye, and Iwas sore afraid. However, I continued on to meet myfate. "Hael!" sez he. "Wat* had!" Isnap back, showing him that I know theold Anglo-Saxon custom. "You're just about to write a column," sez he. "Sir!"sez I,and about that timeIsold out. Well, to make a long, sad story short, whenthey called the cops, I'd promised to write this mess. This all goes to showthat I'm not inflicting this with any.premeditated malice in my heart. Selah.

STUDENT MEETINGBlue Ridge Will Open for itsSeventeenth Summer Session

ACCOMMODATIONS GOOD

Eight or Nine Summer Conferences Held Annually— Dele-

gates from Ten SouthernStates Present

Fifty thousand people have beer,guests at Blue Ridge in the sixteensummers it has been open. It wasoriginally planned for conferences ofcollege men and women, who met

there under the auspices of the stu-

dent Y. M. C. A. and V. W. C, A. Hutthese boys and girls told their parents and these began coining to thiswonderful spot in the mountains. Inorder to meet the needs of these matnre people who came for rest and in-spiration, seventy rooms with privatebath were added, and these are nowtaxed to capacity most of the summer by those who find here an idealfellowship in the midst of the gloriesof the rugged mountainsc and the quietof tile woods and streams.

h'or twenty-two years the stuiientsof the South have each summer turned their faces toward the hills andjourneyed thither for a ten day per-iod of refreshment and change fromthe grind of the college year. Untillull the conferences were held in anumber of places in or near the moun-tains of North Carolina and 'Tennessee.In itju the Blue Ridge Associationopened its doors and was dedicatedto its career of service to the Southby the conferences of the college YW. C, A. and Y. M. C, A. Since thatyear this spot has become a sort ofshrine for the students of the south.

Ot the eight or nine conferencesheld each summer on these groundswe are primarily concerned with theSouthern Student's Conference of theY. M. C. A. held this year during theten days, June 14-24. 'This conferencedraws delegates from the ten South-ern slates which includes on the northVirginia and Kentucky, and on thewest runs to the Mississippi River butincludes also Louisiana.

To this conference come representa-tives from the student bodies and fac-

BLUE RIDGE PROGRAMInspiring Platform Speaker

Fe.W Student Conferences of the pasthave been in position to announcethree such speakers as Fletcher Brock-man, Christian World statesman. T.Z. Zoo, Interpreter of the Orient tothe West and inimitable in his pre-sentation of tin- heart of the Chris-tian message, and Dr. Henry Crane,perhaps the most acceptable speakertoday to students of the Eastern col-leges and universities. 'Two otherspeakers of this caliber will be an-nounced later.

The Guidance Motif Dominant.Certain major life adjustments con-

front students during their four yearsin college. They must decide whatthey are going to do about vovation.girls, religion, the church, education,etc., which proves a baffling experience. Most are puzzled by the dif-ficulties involved.

That is just what Mine Ridge is pre-pared to do this coming summer withadequate provision for personal con-ference, forum and group discussion,inspiring presentations and ample timefor quiet meditation in the seclusionof the mouutains.^ind almost uuparall-ed opportunity is made available. Thebest skilled leadership to be found isbeing drawn from colleges and uni-versities both North and South. Forthe vocational counselling service,there will be a group of counsellorsselected from Southern colleges, whowill give their whole thought and timeto the personal needs of individualstudents. This part of the program isbeing planned and carried through bya group of college deans under theChairmanship of President H. W.Chase, of the University of North Car-olina, Dean Francis F. Bradshaw hasbeen secured as expert leader of thisgroup in the field of counselling, andassociated with him will be Mr. HarryBone,, of Columbia University andUnion Sewipary on campus life ad-justments and Dr. English Bagby, wellknown expert in the psychology ofpersonality. These leaders with thegroup of twenty to twenty-five choicecounsellors selected from the more

ulties of every type of college in theRegion, including State Universities,State technical schools, medical, dental, law, theological and other pro-fessional schools, denominationalschools, independent colleges and uni-versities.

The students and professors whoattend the conference are usuallythose who Have manifested interestin the best things in college life, Theyare the men who on their own campuscan be counted upon to stand for highmoral and intclcctual standards, highathletic and social standards, and who

important institutions in the South willprovide a service quite unique in thequality of its personnel and the ser-vice to he rendered.

High Grade Bible StudyRare indeed, will be the privilege

of those who attend the conferencethis year in their opportunity to exexperience such interpretations of theBible as will be provided under theleadership of Or, Bruce Lurry,of NewYork, Dr. William .1. Hulchins, ofBerea College, Mr. Harry Bone of theNational Council of Y. M. C. A. '■., DrJ. M. Culbreth, of the MethodistHoard of Education, and Dr. II. M.LeSourd, of Duke University., Thishas been arranged in answer to thestrongly expressed desire on the partof student! for opportunity to gainan inspiring acquaintance with theHible.

Interest and Technique GroupsRunning through the Conference

"ill be a number of smaller interestgroups delving into such questions asstudents themselves may choose fordiscus ion in relation to the applica-tion of Christian principles to prob-lems ,„, iiu. campus and in the com-munity. 'The latter half of the Con-ference will be devoted in these samegroups to the discusston of the kindof programs that ban actually be car-ried out through the Christian Associa-tion back in the colleges. Such lead-ers as Harry Hone, Dr. R. E, Baber,Dr. VV. W. Alexander, Mr. HarryC.nier. Dr. William J. Hutchins anilothers of like caliber will be the re-source men for these groups.

Recreation.This phase of the Conference will

be in charge of competent athletic di-rectors who will help organize thesports, tennis, basket ball, swimming,rowing, track, hiking, etc. The after-noons will be completely devoted tothese activities or to such recreationas the delegates themselves maychoose.

Tournaments will be arranged, inwhich the delegations with sufficientnumbers can participate.

Judiug. from past meets the 'Cattrackmen show mighty good prospectsof being one of the strong contendersat the State meet early in May. TheTar Heels will probably be the strong-

est bidder for the championship, ac-cording to the way they handedGeorgia Tech a sound drubbing lastweek, but Captain Pritchett's men willbe right in there with 'em. It'll beeasier to make prophecies about thisafter the 'Cats and V. M. I. Cadetshave it out this week-end. This'll beabout the toughest meet Davidson hashad this season.

Carolina it having her way inthe ttate with Spring athletic.Week before latt the Tar Heel golfteam copped the ttate champion-ship and latt week her racketeeriwere alto crowned ttate champ-ion.. Although Frontit John.ton

That Virginia trip didn't turn out sobad after all. Although two of thegames were rained out Monk's ninesucceeded in winning two of the threeleft. All the games were marked bymany errorsand hits onboth sides butthe Cats improved with each game,beating the Virginia Cavaliers 5-2 inthe final game of the tour. "Irish" Mc-Tnnis garnered the most hits in thisgame, connecting for a single and adouble out of three times up.

There will undoubtedly be tomechampion.hip talent uncovered at

Whittle, Currie and McCall provedto be Clemson's biggest obstacles inthe Cat-Tiger meet last Saturday.Each chalked up two firsts. Whittlebeing high-scorer of the day withCurric running a close second. JoeMcCall is beginning to look good forten points about every time he per-forms the broad jump and hurls thejavelin. He was one of the strongestmen on the Fresh track squad lastyear.

Well, one Davidton record wentup the creek in themeet latt week.Thit wat the ditcut mark of121 ft.and 11 in. and wat broken bySporty Regen when he hurled itfor a new mark of 122 ft.

Johnnie Mc-lnnis connected for aheautiful singleover third but the rally was cut short.A final rally in the ninth frame alsoproved hopeful for a few minutes,Mclnnis again connecting for a cleansingle, but the Elon boys were playingairtight ball and this too fell short.

Feet to Break Old DavidsonRecord

The Davidson Wildcat track teamwonover the Clemson Tigers here lastSaturday afternoon by a count of 77to 49. The 'Cat thinly-clads won ninefirsts and piled up enough second andthird places to win from the Tigersby a comfortable score.

The chief weakness in the David-son aggregation seemed to he in thedistance events. Clemson won the 88<>,mile and two-mile runs to get theironly wins in the track events. Theother firsts of the visitors came inthe high jump and in the discus, wherethey nosed out the Wildcat represen-tatives for first honors but split thesecond and third places.

One of the outstanding events ofthe meet was Sporty Regan's record-breakingheave of the discus. He tos-sed the platter over \22 feet to crackthe old Davidson record of 121 feeteleven inches, which has stood forseveral years. However, this was notquite far enought to win the event,which went to Lester of Clemson.

Davidson was supreme in the dash-es and hurdles, as was predicted. Cur-rie came through in good form to winthe 100 yard dash and the two twenty.He also placed third in the 440 yarddash. Brohard won this event andKell came in second to give the 'Catsa clean sweep in this event. The timewas 52 seconds flat.

Heath Whittle sailed over the hur-dles in very good time and came infirst in both timber events. He wonthe 120 high hurdles in 15.6 seconds,within one-tenth of a second of hisbest time, and then won the lows in26.2 seconds, to tie his record in thatevent. He also tied for second placein the century.Heath was in just aboutthe best form he has shown this year.

Lineberger of Clemson, and Cur-rie, Whittle and McCall of Davidsoneach won two events. Whittle washigh-point man, getting twelve points,and Currie was second with eleven.Lineberger and McCall each got tenpoints apiece

Dr.Blakely SpeaksToMinisterial Band

The Ministerial Band has always beenglad to welcome as speakers at the Sun-day afternoon meetings those distin-guished guests who maybe at the collegeat that particular time. On last Sundayafternoon the speaker was Dr. HunterBlakely of Columbia Seminary who hadcome to Davidson to speak at the "Y"vespers. Doctor Blakely said that hewished to talk about the misistry as alife's work and not to present-a--formafaddress.

What the ministry needs is not moremen but better men. If the men in theministry were the best men available whohad given themselves to work and pre-paration, they could turn the world up-side down in a short while. More menare needed who will go all of the wayin preparationand this is no easy job.

The modern world offers a challengeto ministers to seek the best preparation.Time was when the minister was the besteducated man in the town but that dayhas passed. In every congregation thereare men who are as well educated if notbetter than the minister. Therefore theminister's range of knowledge cannot betoo great. Inbis own experience. DoctorBlakely said that whin he started preach-ing he gave out of sermon material in avery few weeks and he had to buckledown to preach to the same congregationthree times a week.

The minister has a closer contact withpeople probably than even the physician.There are the young as well as the oldand the minister should have such Christ-like grace as to make the little childrencome to him and in so doing be able tomould their lives into upright Christianmen and women.

This is anage in which menare tryingto think things through. Men are apt todoubt the fundamentals of faith. But evenso, if it is a fine thing to preach in anage of faith how much more glorious itis to preach in a time <>f doubt, It is theminister's job to lead others to the rightway.

Prior to the meeting the election ofofficers was held for the next term. Thefollowing were elected: F, D. Miller,President;Albert McClure, Vice-presi-dent; and R. Prince, Secretary. Thesemen will be installed at the next meeting.They succeed T. E. Hill, president; Alex.Warren, Vice-president: and M. W. Nor-neeti Secretary-treasurer,
