Ruudaltzoff, formerly of the Russian Imperial Academy of Fine Arts, and who is now here in Wake Forest painting the por- traits of Dr. W. L. Poteat, President of the college, and Dr. N. Y. Gulley, Dean of the Law School. During the regime of the Czar of Russia, Professor Rundaltzoff was the court painter, and painted portraits of officials and noblemen of Russia. Be- sides his portraits, he became widely lmown for his landscape paintings. At the request of the former Emperor Nicholas, he made three portraits of the Emperor himself and the Empress and other members of the royal family. N'ot long after the ontbreal;: of the revolution in Russia, when the Bol- sheviki assumed control of the coun· try, Mr. Rundaltzoff lost his entire estate in the Crimea, and as a result was forced to undergo great hardships to escape the country. At one time he was reduced to such circumstances that he was compelled to serve as a night watchman in Petrograd to ob- tain food and shelter. Two years later he crossed the frontier under disguise ami reached Reval, where Edward K. Howe, an American business man, aided him in reaching the United States. Since coming to the United States in 1922, Mr. Rundaltzoff has constantly added to his popularity and glory as au artist of exceptional pre-eminence. He has painted the portraits of a num- ber of illustrious personages in this country. The late President Harding consented to sit twice for the artist, and the portrait was presented at the 'Vhite House as an expression of the artist's personal mark of appreciation for the aid from the United States to (Continued on page 3) Annual Election Held By Literary Societies Men Noted for Forensic Abilities Are Chosen to Represent Societies the Law Class, more than three-fourths unions.

The first week in June will mark the ninety-third commencement in the history of Wake Forest College. This notable occasion, which has for years been featured by addresses and speeches delivered by men prominent in influential, will signify the con­clusion of the college year of 1925-26. In past years it has been the custom for the trustees of the college to select as commencement speakers such men as have been constantly in the public eye, and this year's exercises will not fall short of the standard which has been set. There will be ninety.four men receiving degrees at the class <lay exercises, according to the registrar's office, and these men will represent every department of the college cur­riculum. Of this number, 44 will re­ceive B.A. degrees, 17 will get their LL.B.'s, 12 will receive the Bachelor of Science diploma, 10 will get a B.S. in Medicine, while 8 will receive the B.A. in Medicine, and two students will be awarded the degrees of Master of Arts. The number of men to re­ceive degrees is not as great as in one or two previous years, but it is practically on an average with the graduating classes of the recent past. The Commencement will begin with a meeting of the Board of Trustees Wed­nesday afternoon, June 2.

WORK OF NOTED PAINTER

Famous Russian Court Painter, Widely Known in World

of Art

To have painted the portraits of the President of the United States, the King of Belgium, and the late Czar of Russia, as well as other illustrious personages, is a distinction which is accorded to few artists, but such is the record of l\Iichial V. Ruudaltzoff, formerly of the Russian Imperial Academy of Fine Arts, and who is now here in Wake Forest painting the por­traits of Dr. W. L. Poteat, President of the college, and Dr. N. Y. Gulley, Dean of the Law School.

During the regime of the Czar of Russia, Professor Rundaltzoff was the court painter, and painted portraits of officials and noblemen of Russia. Be­sides his portraits, he became widely lmown for his landscape paintings. At the request of the former Emperor Nicholas, he made three portraits of the Emperor himself and the Empress and other members of the royal family.

N'ot long after the ontbreal;: of the revolution in Russia, when the Bol­sheviki assumed control of the coun· try, Mr. Rundaltzoff lost his entire estate in the Crimea, and as a result was forced to undergo great hardships to escape the country. At one time he was reduced to such circumstances that he was compelled to serve as a night watchman in Petrograd to ob­tain food and shelter. Two years later he crossed the frontier under disguise ami reached Reval, where Edward K. Howe, an American business man, aided him in reaching the United States.

Since coming to the United States in 1922, Mr. Rundaltzoff has constantly added to his popularity and glory as au artist of exceptional pre-eminence. He has painted the portraits of a num­ber of illustrious personages in this country. The late President Harding consented to sit twice for the artist, and the portrait was presented at the 'Vhite House as an expression of the artist's personal mark of appreciation for the aid from the United States to

and the opportunities of this age of told that he IS the st~lff · ~\t least progress, or that has robbed us of all t\1·0 :mswpr~ r·an lw gtn•u. One out- ambition to tal;:e advantage of these sra11d i1!g Ph:n·acteristie of ma 11 has I opportunities.

Let us call attention briefly to a few facts which are the outcroppings of this spirit. The first is the condition of our campus and buildings. 'Vhen­ever this subject is mentioned we hear the pitiful tale of "No money! no money!" Certainly there is no doubt that we are sadly in need of money, but financial embarrassment is no ex­cuse for the shameful conditions which exist at present. What we need more than money even is a real construc­tive spirit that manifests itself in more enthusiastic efforts to make the best of what we have. The campus and buildings everywhere have the ap. pearance of being just patched up suf­ficiently to l'eep things going after a fashion.

We realize that it is much easier to stand off and criticise than it would he to pitch in and do things better than they are being clone at present, but the impression of an attitude ·of oimply "getting by" is unavoidable if you walk out on the campus and see the condition it is in, and then see the shiftless, half-hearted way in which the hired men, except "Dr." Tom, go about their worJ;:, or go to a ball game and see them sitting perched beside the fence with mouths agape.

One example will serve to show the results of this attitude. Recently one of our laboratories was equipped with a brand new set of laboratory desks costing several hundred dollars. After installation it was found that the troughs were a few inches too short and that consequently water ran over on the top of the desks. This condi­tion was allowed to remain a whole year. with great damage to the desks, although it could have been remedied by one man in a few hours. Many other similar incidents might be cited.

Of much more vital relation. how­ever, to the welfare of ·wake Forest is the manifestation of this same atti­tude on the part of some of the ad· ministratiYe departments. Here it takes the form of a "peace at any cost" policy. Now peace is a great thing, but peace at the cost of con-

This in spite of the fact that this report was to go only to the board of trustees. On top of this, at the meeting of the trustees Dr. Cullom was relieved of his duties as dean. Worse still, Dr. Cullom was not even notified of this action, ac­cording to rumor, and learned of it only when he saw it in the newspaper the next morning.

Finally, after several weeks, the council was notified that their action was invalid. In the whole affair, the matter was never once brought before the whole faculty for action, in spite of repeated efforts on the part of members of the council to get it there. In regard to this fact, the statement was made that it would not do to bring it before the faculty, because there might be some who would side with the council, and thus it might cause friction.
