MR. TOM BOST SPEAKSAT FRESHMAN MEETING

His Subject Was, “Within the Law”;Dr. Derieux Injects His Usual

Pep in the Singing

Thost who were present at the lastregular Thursday night Freshmanmeeting, held in the “Y" auditoriumunder the auspices of the FriendshipCouncil, were indeed fortunate tohear Mr. Bost. Mr. Bost is one ofthe'best known newspaper men inthe State, aside from being a realChristian man. Those who have onlyread after him have missed half.

Mr. Bost’s text was taken fromGalatians five; his subject was,“Within the Law.” Truly a big sub-ject. But Mr. Bost spoke with theauthority of one who is right andknows he is right. He was so seriousand sincere in his plea for a closeralignment with the “law of theSpirit” that he kept the fellows inmost rapt attention from the time hearose until he sat down, his messageforcefully delivered.

Mr. Bost has promised to comeagain soon, and we are looking for-ward to that time.

Our good old friend, Dr. Derieux,was at the meeting with all of hisusual “pep” and maybe a little more.He upheld the singing end of theprogram, while Mrs. Derieux ably ac-companied by the piano.As this goes to press the members

of the Friendship Council are pre-paring for and looking forward tothis Thursday’s program. Dr. W. L.Poteat, president of Wake Forest Col-lege, is to speak on “Patriotism andInternationalism.” It is indeed a bigsubject, but Dr. Poteat is a big man,and we’re looking forward to a bigmeeting.

I. L. LANGLEY (Pullen)Who Won the Unanimous Decision ofthe Judges in Declamation Contest.Using as his subject “Uses of Edu-

cation For Business,” I. L. Langley,representing Pullen Literary Socety,of which he is president, on lastTuesday night, won the unanimousdecision of the judges in the annualIntersociety Declamation Contest. Byhis excellent speaking, Mr. Langleywon honor for his Society and setthe pace for every man Who expectsto take part in the series of con-tests, which will be held betweenthe two societies during the year.Mr. Langley is a member of the sen-ior Textile class. He joined Pullensoon after his arrival at State Col-lege three years ago, and since thattime has taken advantage of everyopportunity to serve the society inany capacity he saw fit. For thepast three years he has representedPullen as an intersociety debater, andlast year a declaimer also. Manytimes has he brought home the lau—rels for his society. He is a goodexample of a man who had a pur-pose in view and keeps working un-til that purpose is accomplished, oras one of the judges put it——-“Hehas learned to speak in public—thetask. which he set out to do.”

Under the direction of Mr. Lang-ley Pullen has created a new era insociety achievements at State Col-lege. Every member has the op—portunity to develop himself into anable, clear and impressive speaker,an asset, the Value of which cannever be over estimated. Our suc—cess in life depends largely upon theimpressions we make upon thosewith whom we come in ”contact. Our

STATE COLLEGE STATION, RALEIGH, N. C., NOVEMBER 17, 1922

ANNOUNCE NEW COURSESAT N. C. STATE COLLEGE

The State College announces it hasmade final arrangements for con-ducting in January Special ShortCourses in cotton, tobacco and smallgrain; in fruit and vegetable growing;in farm dairying; in poultry raising;and in cotton grading. The courseswill be run concurrently from Janu-ary 8 to 19. They have been so ar-ranged that each farmer attendingmay either take any one of the spe-cial courses or may take certain por-tions of each felt to be of most di-rect value to him.

This work has been arranged tocome at leisure time in farm workand has been designed especially tomeet the needs of the busy farmer,both old and young, who wish to be-come more modern and business-likein his particular line of farming, andto give him an opportunity to spendten busy days at the College studyingand having practice work in the par-ticular agricultural subjects whichwill be most helpful to him in hisparticular line of farming.

Provision has been made for anumber of prominent outside special-ists to aid the College in putting onthese courses in the most helpfulmanner. ‘

Dean C. B. Williams says the Col-lege probably has never before beenable to put on any more importantshort courses for North Carolinafarmers than will be offered in Janu-ary. No doubt large numbers of ourprogressive dairymen; poultry rais-ers, cotton, tobacco and small grainfarmers; and orchardists and vege-table growers will avail themselvesof this splendid opportunity to bet-ter their condition and to receivenew inspiration for better things.

DR. RIDDICK ADDRESSESTHE PINE BURR SOCIETY

Professor Wooten Also Makes Inter:esting Talk; Meeting Devoted

to Speechmaking

Dr. W. C. Riddick, President ofthe College, made a very interestingtalk to the members of the Pine BurrSociety, last wednesday night, No-vember 8. As most of the time ofthe former meetings had been takenup with business, the time of thismeeting was turned over entirely tothe pleasure of hearing the speechesof Dr. Riddick and Prof. Wooten.

Dr. Riddick spoke briefly and tothe point,, and expressed his appre-ciation for the opportunity of speak-

“The worldmay point out with pride the manwho has not made good in college,but has achieved success in laterlife," said Dr. Riddick, “but thosecases are the exception rather thanthe rule. For every poor studentthat has made good in the world, Ican point out dozens of men whostood high in their classes who haveachieved marked success."

Prof. Wooten, who is himself amember of the society, then spokebriefly, comparing one’s school lifeto the various steps in the develop-ment of a good mathmatician. “Thetraining in leadership and concentra-tion that the good student gets is ex-cellent training for future life,” hesaid. Both the speakers compli-mented the student and faculty mem-bers upon having at college such anorganization, which although new,will become a great force in the fu-ture development of scholarship onthe campus.

Agreed With HimA new minister was invited out to

supper. He was a bachelor, and whenhe helped himself to the biscuits forthe third time he looked across thetable at his hostess' little girl, whowas staring at him with round, won-dering eyes.

“I don’t often have such a goodsupper as this, my dear,” he said inhis most propitiatory tone.“We don’t, either,” said the little

girl, smiling. “I’m awful glad youcame."—Exchange.

Cop: “You mean to tell me thatthis fellow—this physical wreck—gave you a black eye?"

Top: “Yes, but he wasnft a physi-cal wreck until he gave me the blackeye.”-—Exchange.

“What makes L. N. Brown socrazy about the women?"

"Nothing, ’cept possibly becausehis mother was a woman."

That large chair was not of the electric type, but still it produced quite ashock.

It is said that Dr. Riddick enjoyed the trip to Norfolk, even though wedidn’t win the game.

A great many of our Sophomores didn’t go to church last Sunday. Themilitary maps are now due.

The editors of the Agromeck and Technician put in several days of realuninterupted work this week. The phonograph spring was broken.

A member of the stall! has a counterfeit dime which he says has been inhis possession several years, and he can’t get it off his hands. Wicked boy,he never goes to church.

The Technique has recently put out an issue that is called the Tech-in-China number. Speaking of North Carolina, we might as well put out onethat we would call Tech-in-Dutch issue.

Anyone wishing to get real first-hand knowledge ,of public speaking as it.should be, should have heard Jones make his speech of acceptance the othernight when he was elected manager of the Electrical Show.

This week marks the meeting oi the Y. M. C. A. delegates in AtlanticCity, New Jersey, and the greater part of our “Y" personnel is away. Thedelegates were accompanied by Dr. Ellis, who is leading the Bible Classleaders this year, and also by Prof. -Vaughan, Mr. E. L. Cloyd. and Mr.King, General Secretary. This is the Forty-first annual convention of theYoung Men’s Chrstian Association, and is the first for several years to meetamong the eastern states. State is represented by the largest delegation thathas ever attended a convention of this kind.

The Wolfpack offers no apologies for the game in Norfolk last Saturday.It was the same old case of a light team meeting up with great odds in thematter of pure old beef. That the Wolfpack was there from the beginningis shown by the fact that the score was zero all at the end of the first quar-ter. As the game progressed, the inevitable happened, and the team wasOvercome by the mighty onslaught of the Gobblers. Some teams have off-days, some oil-weeks, but for perfectly obvious reasons, the Wolfpack ishaving an off-year. Anyway, there is another year coming, and it will besome year in football, if we are to give credit to Sammy Homewood's dashingFreshmen.

The way in which the Freshmen walked through the yearlings from Caro-lina last Friday at Tarboro was nothing less than spectacular, if we are totake the word of 'the onlookers. Although Sam Homewood thought thatthe victory went to the wrong team, the fact still remains that it went.Although the Varsity is' not showing up as well as it has been known to inthe past, the showing made by the Freshmen all‘ays any fear that we mighthave had about the prospects for another seasOn. The Freshman title hasbeen going steadily to the youngsters from the University since the begin-ning of the annual meet three years ago, but it is interesting to note thatthe score by which it was won has been steadily decreasing, until last yearit was a scant two points, gained through the failure of our men to kickeither of the goals for their two touchdowns. According to the angle of riseof the curve of scores we were due to win this year, and we did it. We hopethat the curve still has the same degree angle, till the saturation point is

WHAT IS THETROUBLE AT THE “Y”

Wonder how many have noticeda difference this week in the atmos-phere about a certain building onthe campus? Very. few, I dare say.But can’t you tell things are a littledifferent? But one fellow asked,“Why, what is the joke? I don’t seeany difference anywhere.”

“Can’t you tell that the activitiesat a certain building have been onthe bum this week? Take the ‘Y’for an instance."

“I don’t see any difference there.They had the Friendship Councilmeeting Sunday afternoon, the Pro-motion Force Monday night, theBible Study. on Wednesday night,and the special Freshman meeting onThursday night. I don’t see anychange. But, say! I haven’t seenanything of Mr. ing this week, noteven in chapel! And ‘Shorty’ and‘Buck’ and ‘Willie.’ I haven’t seeneither one of them the whole week.”

“Yes, you know that somethng waslacking and just couldn’t spot it.Don’t you know Mr. King, Shorty,Buck, Willie, Charlie, T. 0. E., J. B.,Dr. Ellis, Prof. Vaughn, and Prof.Cloyd all have gone to Atlantic Citythis week to the International Y. M.C. A. Convention? They left Fridaynight, and after seeing the game inNorfolk, took boat to New York,spent Sunday and Monday there andcame back to Atlantic City Tues-day.”“What is the big idea?"“Why, you see, this is a big con-

vention. It meets only once everythree years. Delegates from all overAmerica and all over the world meetto discuss and determine the policiesfor ‘Y’ work throughout the world.You may wonder why such little tel:lows as we are interested in such alarge meeting. There are severalreasons. One is the inspiration re-ceived in hearing such men as Rob-ert E. Speer, New York; M. AshbyJones, Atlanta; D. A. Davis, Geneva,Switzerland; Harry Emmerson Fos-dick, New York; Henry C. Wallace,Sec. Agriculture, Washington; Rob-ert P. Wilder, New York; WilliamHorace Day, Bridgeport, Conn.; andmany others. Another reason is be-cause our ‘Y’ association should berepresented on account of the im-portance of the Convention to us.The Convention will discuss ques-tions fundamental to the life ofevery local association. The informa-tion concerning policies and methodsderived from the experience of theBrotherhood will enable the localAssociation to better meet their fullobligations. Then on? an Associa-tion represented by en who willcome home from such a gatheringwith the inspiration that this Con-vention will give and can begin to in-fluence its members as it ought and

grow in proportion to its responsi-bilities.”

“Well, I believe that bunch oughtto represent us pretty well; I am sureMr. King will do his part, and therest, as for that." '

“No, I am not afraid of Mr. Kingexcept for one thing, and that is ifhe continues at the rate he has beengoing lately I am afraid he won’t lastforever.”

“That is true. Mr. King has beenputting everything he has into the‘Y’ program this fall. I can’t thinkof another man on the campus whohas worked like he has. What weshould do, every student of us whostands the right things on the cam-pus, is to co-operate with him more,and as much as possible help to makeit easier for him.”

“Let’s show Mr. King and the boysthat we are back of them, every oneof us.” J. E. B.

BIBLE STUDY DEPT.ENROLLMENT IS 450

Lesson, Wednesday, November 22d;Subject, The Test of Discipleship;

Questions to open up Problem.1. Think of the best Christian you

know personally: What has. thisperson that others lack? How faris the difference due to that person’sbeing a Christian?

3. Why is a distinction sometimesmade between being a Christian andbeing a church member? Why are somany of the real Christians churchmembers? What is the standard forjudging whether one is a Christianor not?

Questions to bring out the Scrip-ture principles.

4. By following Jesus in his dailyministrations, what idea did the dis-ciples get of what it means to be aChristian?

7. As shown in Jesus’ rebuke (8:-33), what was lackng in Peter’sChristianity? Why did Jesus makesuffering, the cross, and the losingof life, requirements for being aChristian?

8. According to 8:34-38 whatcharacteristics must a genuine Chris-tian have?

11. Look back over the record tosee what undesirable characteristicsJesus was trying to help these menovercome.

Questions applying these principlestoday.

12. Jesus seems here to have at-tempted to eliminate characteristicswhich were not worthy of his truefollowers. Some people today say,“0! course you cannot expect aChristian to be perfect." When itcomes to commonly accepted failings ‘wherein does a Christian differ fromothers? How. it at all, does beinga Christian make a diaerence?. . ~._..._.....—‘ .

THE TECHNICIAN

14. How near like Jesus, that is,how near perfect does one have to beto qualify as a real Christian? Howlittle can one believe about Jesusand still be classed as a true Chris-tian? Just what is necessary to makeone a genuine Christian?

15. In what sense does a Chris-tian have to lose his life in order tosave it? How do you account forthe fact that being a Christian costmany folks little or no sacrifice andsuffering?

16. How would you criticize DeanBosworth’s definition: “A Christianis one who day by day increasinglymanifests an invincible spirit of goodwill'toward all men?”

Sam (on outside, looking in):“Look heah, niggah, is you’ in fo’life?”

Rastus (on inside, looking out):“Not me, I ain’t, jes’ fum now on.”

Engineering Sells, Too!

Awhole lot of the make-believe has beeneliminated from selling operations in thepast ten years. The old idea that sales-men were born to the sample-case, thatthey carried some sort of a special diplo-ma from the University of Pooh, has hadto break camp, along with the otherexploded theory which insisted that asalesman must be a “good fellow”, a manof strange habits, tremendous stories,and unquestioned qualities both as amixer, and as an assimilator.

Now we believe—nay, we know—that the best salesman is the man whoknows most about his goods, and cantalk most interestingly about them.

This being the proven case, it isn’t soqueer that engineering should find a realand effective application in the selling

field, especially if the merchandise mar-keted is an engineering product that isbought and operated by engineers. ‘

Every engineer who now engages inthe sale and distributionof Westinghouseproducts feels that he is doing workworthy of his training—for he is carryingService and Sincerity to Industry, andto mankind! He is out where the fightingis often the fiercest, and he is putting upa battle for the things that he believesare right. And a man can’t expect, norask, a bigger chance than that!

Sixty percent, approximately, of theengineering graduates who come toWestinghouse find their way eventu-ally into some phase of selling. Andwe are proud to have them there—andthey are glad to be there!

STATE FALLS BEFOREI STRONG V.P.I. ELEVEN

Gobblers Give Wonderful Exhibitionof Line Plunging; Final

Score 24-0

V. P. I., we take our hats oif'toyou. Fighting for every inch ofground they got, the strong V. P. I.eleven accumulated a 24-0 scoreagainst State in Norfolk last Satur-day. This score was not due to "thelack of fight on the part of the Care-linians, but was due solely to that“never-stop” fluid which must havebeen injected into every man onV. P. I.’s team. As per usual, BigDick Bostian, Cox and Floyd playedstellar games of defense. In fact, no-body really had a chance to. star onthe offense. -

In the first quarter the Virginiansworked the ball to State’s ten-yardline, but were unable to score eithertime. For the first half State playedonly a defensive game, Park puntingon the first down every time the ballwent over.

Early in the second period Gettlecarried the ball over the goal fer thefirst score of the game. Rutherfordbrought home the extra point, only. afew minutes later to place one be-tween the uprights for a field goal,which made the score 10-.0. ,

In the third period V. P. I. marcheddown the field almost at will, butnot without fighting, until two moretouchdowns had been added to thebig end of the score, making it 24-0.

Taking the ball on its own twenty-yard line late in the last period, afterRutherford had barely missed a fieldgoal from the forty-yard line, Statebrought the crowd to its feet with itsscintillating overhead game. Longhad been'replaced by' Jeannette, andthe Tech fiash raced down the fieldto take a long pass from Randolph.It was good for thirty yards. Lessthan ten seconds later, Tom Parkplucked another toss out of the air,after running twenty yards, and theWolfpack was snarling on its oppos-nents’ fifteen-yard line.

It was the last desperate effort ofa vanquished team. Four passes werethen harmlessly grounded in succes-sion and V. P. I. took the ball ondowns. The game closed a few min-utes later with the ball in State’spossession in midfield.State V. P. I.Wallis ...................'-.' ..... Hardwich (C)

Carolina Freshmen Are Humbled byHomewood’s , Yearlings 7-8

Playing one of the best games'ofthe season, the Tech yearlings tri-umphed over the “all-powerful" Caro—lina Freshman team to the tune of7-3. In the .first quarter the ChapelHill lads probably had the best of it,but after that period ended‘ they .never really had another chance. Itlooked as though it took a little whilefor the Tech. to. set, warmed up andto realize that they had met some realopposition. Carolina kicked off. Af-ter three line bucks, Rackley wasforced to punt. After exchanging acouple of "punts, with neither teamgetting much advantage from them,Carolina worked the ball down 4’0State’s twenty-yard line. Here thedefense stiffened and the march wasstopped. Devin, however, droppedback and put one between the up-rights for a field goal, Carolina’s onlyscore. The half ended with Carolinaon the big end of a 3-0 score.The second half found the “Tech-

lings” back 4n the game with morefight than ever. After an exchange

~ of pants, State started a drive that. was. destined to win a football game.“Big!“ Shuford carried. the ball overcenter three times :‘in'g succession fortwo‘first downs. An and run wasthen attempted which did not gainmuch ground. Going back to thesame play, with Rackley and Shu-ford carrying the ball, three morebucks netted two more first downs.Three or four more plays put the ballin striking distance of Carolina’sgoal, and Shuford was given the ballthat he might carry'it- over and berewarded for his brilliant work incarrying it down the field. TRackleykicked goalrwhich made the Scorestand 7-53.The feature of the game was the

teamwork of theTeéhs, with Shufordand Rackley leading the offensive,while Summerell, Herring and Loganled the defense.

BERZELIUS CHEMICAL. SOCIETY HOLDS SOCIAL

Freshmen Informally Entertained,Ice Cream and Cake Replacing

the Usual Noxious Gases

In accordance with their programfor the season, the Berzelius Chemi-cal Society entertained informally theChemistry Freshmen. Exploding hy-drogen generators and the noxioushydrogen sulphide, with which Chem-istry Freshmen are usually enter-tained, were replaced with a generousoutlay of ice cream, cake and fruitsserved by the wives and daughters Ofthe faculty.

The meeting was opened with atalk by Mr. Miller. He spoke atlength on the value of the chemist tothe South. “Chemical progress,”said he, “is inseparably connectedwith the progress of industry in gen-eral, and the time is fast comingwhen the South will need the chemistas much as the North.” The bodyof his address was devoted to chem-istry as applied to plant life. Takenaltogether, it was one of the mostinspiring talks which the writer hasever heard.

Kelly Bloom spoke on “Ink.”.Kelly seems to have used ink a greatdeal since coming to college, and hasconducted a lot of research work inthis direction. He has prepared achart of the correct shades of inkwith which to correspond with girlsto any degree Of success. Psychologyhas solved the problem for Kelly, andhe will be glad to assist any love-sickswains at State College to win backtheir lost sweethearts. Appliedscience will get results, fellows; seeKelly.Dewey Potts spoke on “Gunpow-

der.” Its history, ancient and mod—ern methods Of manufacture, and areview of the industry today com-prised the body Of his talk. He evenmade some, but to the great relief ofthose present he postponed testing ituntil a later date.

Refreshments were then served bythe ladies and a very pleasant socialhour was enjoyed by all. Kittrelland Mr. Miller ate a quart of creamapiece and then like true “cake—eat-ers” monopolized the ladies’ atten-tion for the rest of the evening.

Jule Baum and Earl Teague, withan off-tackle play over Mr. Jordan,made a touchdown on the freezer anddeparted with an unknown amountof cream and peanuts for the Grand.“Earthquake,” Mr. Park and Pridgenate most of the cakes. These fellowsshow sure signs of becoming "cake-eaters” in the future.0n the whole, it was an enjoyable

evening and only goes to show thatthe “chemicals" make up in pep fortheir lack in numbers.

WHAT IS THE TENNIS CLUBDOING?

Improved Courts Now Being MadeReady—When Completed, We’ll

Have Four Dandy Courts

The Athletic Associaton has beengood to the Tennis Club and pros-pective team and given us somemoney to fix up the courts, makelarger playing spaces, put up newbackstops, buy nets and supplies.This work is being carried on rightalong. Memory, who has a great dealof experience in fixing up courts, isin charge of the work, and is makinga good job of it. When the work nowit. When the work now engagedengaged in is completed we will havefour dandy courts. Sixteen men canparticipate in games of doubles all atthe same time, which is about fourtimes the present capacity of thecourts. The backstops will be movedbaCk ten feet at each end of thecourts, which does away with thedifficulty of hitting a backline ballwith your back up against the wirebackstop. The weather is gettingpretty cool, but there is yet time forsome good practice.We do not presume that tennis will

anything like outshine the majorsports, but we want State to be rep-resented in every branch of athletics,and all of the other colleges in theState have tennis teams. So to keepabreast of the times, we must haveone, too. And we should make astart some time, and by the timesome of the present Freshmen cometo their senior year, tennis will befirmly fixed at State.Show your interest by joining the

Tennis Club, and adding your dollarto help us keep up the courts, etc.We expect to have some sort of ateam next spring even if we don’texpect to win the South-AtlanticTennis Championship. The use ofthe courts will be confined to stu-dents who are members of the club.

CONTRIBUTION OF ASERBIAN HERDSMAN TOSCIENCE OF TELEPHONY

‘Conspicuous among hundreds ofwhich have brought

America’s telephone systems to theirhigh development are those of Dr.Michael Idvorsky Pupin. They arehighly scientific in character andbased upon the wave transmission ofsound and electricity.

Although for .many years anAmerican citizen by adoption MichaelPupin was born in a village nearBelgrade, Serbia. At the age oftwelve he began summer vacationservice with other boys as assistantto the guardians of the villagers’herd of oxen, and at the same timehis studying in Nature’s own labora-tory of the wave transmission ofsound.Now, among the arts of the herds-

men in which the boys were trained,was the art of listening through theground. A knife with a long wood-en handle was stuck in the ground.One boy who was being trainedwould put his ear to the handle andlisten, while another boy thirty orforty yards away, would strike hisknife similarly stuck in the ground.

inventions

The first boy would have to tell thedirection and guess the distance.This first lesson in wave transmis-sion set young Pupin thinking. Hesoon Observed, as herdsmen beforehim had, that sounds from the knifecarry much further through hardsolid ground than through plowedground.The long nights of watching at-

forded much time for Observingsounds and thinking about them.Thoughts started in the lad’s mindon those Serbian plains continued toevolve as he went from the villageschool to the academy at Prague;when he ran away from the unbear-able confinement of the academy, af-ter the freedom of the plains, andcame to America, and as he made hisway through many difficulties to ahigher education in the sciences inthe universities and laboratories ofAmerica and Europe.Finally those germs of thought bore

fruit in many scientific discoveriesand inventions having to do withwave transmission, especially ofsound and electricity. Among theseinventions was the Pupin “loadingcoil,” which greatly advanced the

possibilities of successful long-dis-tance telephony. In the whole worldtoday there are more than three-'quarters Of a million Pupin coils inuse in telephone lines, of which .600,-000 are in the United States.
