No Radical Changesin Ring-tum Phi Says Davis, New Editor-in-Chief Paper Out Earlier—Better Sports And Editorial Pages Planned. There will be no radical changes in the Ring-tum Phi next year, according to Bill Davis, who was elected editor-in-chief for 1929-30 at the polls last Thurs- day. However, there will be sev- eral minor changes in the make- up of the paper, he stated yester- day. There will be an effort to en- large the editorial page, and a student review column will be a new addition. Davis also intends to carry more news of other schools in the paper next year. The sports will be confined to a specially designed sports page and will be in charge of the sports editor. A deadline will be fixed at an earlier hour than it has been this year so that the paper will not be delayed in coming out. Davis, who is a member of the Pi Kappa Alpha, social fraternity, comes from Bristol, Tennessee- Virginia. He is a member of Pi Delta Epsilon, national journalis- tic fraternity; Sigma Delta Chi, national professional journalistic fraternity; Cotillion club, White Friars, and was a monogram man in wrestling in 1927-28. He has been on the Calyx staff for two years, and served as fraternity editor this year. Davis has been a member of the Ring-tum Ph’ staff for three years and served as managing editor this year. At a recent meeting of the Virginia Intercollegiate Press association he was elected'vice-president. ' Bill Sugg, who was chosen busi- ness manager of the Ring-tum Phi in the recent elections, states that he will endeavor to fulfill the ofi‘ice to the best of his ability in an efficient manner. The first act of his term will be a subscrip- ion campaign among the seniors. This will be started in a few days. Sugg stated that he wanted more national advertising to cor- respond wth the local advertising and that he wanted more national circulation. Sugg, who is from Fayetteville, Tennessee, is a member of the Phi Delta Theta social fraternity. He is a member of Pi Delta Epsilon, Cotillion club, and White Friars Ribbon society, being secretary and treasurer of that organization this year.

Troubadours To Present Spring Show Today Lindsay And Hampton Play Leading Roles In “The Haunted House.” The Washington and Lee Trou- badour organization brought the year’s activity to a triumphal close today in their home presen- tation of Owen Davis’s “The Haunted House.” A heavy advance sale of re- served seats and a good box of- fice business enabled the New theatre curtain to go up at 4:30 o’clock before a house packed to the limit with an appreciative au- dience. Stanley Hampton as “the boy,” and Dan Lindsey as “the novel- ist,” took the leading roles, and their characterizations were su- perb. Jones as the “rube” brought down the house numer- ous times and was declared the hit of the show by many. Mun- ford and Dobbs carried out the feminine roles of “the girl” and “the wife” to perfection. Successful Play. The mystery farce by Davis had a very successful run in New York several years ago. It was selected by the executive person- nel of the Troubadours after careful consideration. The per- formance this afternoon brought weeks of hard practice followed (Continued on Page Four).

The Washington and Lee Chap- ter of Sigma Delta Chi, profes- sional journalistic fraternity, ob- served the twentieth anniversary of the founding of the national organization last Wednesday with formal initiation in »the—Lee Chap- el and a formal banquet at the Dutch Inn. Victor H. Hanson, publisher of the Birmingham Age—Herald, and Junius P.

Edward ‘C. White, junior academic student, was init- iated as an active member. Dr. Smith spoke briefly on the infuence of journalism on modern life, and commented that twenty years ago he made his choice be- tween journalism and education as professions. “Every phase of our life, down to our very dress, is influenced by the power of the press, which has become the most effective force in our civilization,” Doctor Smith said, counseling constant adherence to the ethics and ideals of Sigma Delta Chi. Mr. Hanson spoke on the chang- es in modern journalism brought about by radio and modern means of transportation. He commented on the fact that a newspaper (Continued on Page Four).

HARRINGTON AND BUSH ARE DANCE LEADERS Largest ‘Number In Years Remain In Lexington This Year. Acomng as a part of one of the busiest weekends Washington and Lee has seen for many years the Easter dances were ushered in last night with the dance given by the “13” Club. A combination of campus elections, baseball gam- es and track meets joined with the Easter dances to combine in a three-day of drawing student interest. Postponed this year on account session events of poor attendance in the past, the Easter dances more than justify the reasons for the later date Illn the past the spring dances ave been poorly attended, many Students taking the advantage of ihe h°_1idayS to leave Lexington. 35‘? mght a larger crowd attend. ed the Easter dances than at any Sine "1 the Past Kay Kyser and 1S orchstra were at their best and the numbers were apprecia- tively received. “légiu glarrington, president of the M, ub_ led the figure with iss Bessie. Graves, of Lynch- burg: Vlrglma. He was assisted by Ed Smith with Miss Jerry Lee of Lynchburg: Va. Preceding the dance the members of the club an their guests attended a banquet at the Rosemont Inn. i ‘Tonight, te Cotillion Club will give the dance, which, being a Saturday night affair, will end by twelve o’clock. Peyton Bush, president of the club, will lead the figure with Miss Evelyn Bal- lard, of Sweet Briar. He will be assisted by Ed Smith with Miss Elizabeth Simmons of Honing College. The probability of the Easter dances coming at this time every year seem to be assured, according to the general student concensus obtained last night. At no prev- ious spring dances has there been seen as large a number of stu- dents with dates, according to those who have been here for Easter dances in the past. Despite the fact that today is a holiday from classes, few of the students took advantage of the free cuts, preferifig to remain for the dances. This is the first time that more than a small percentage of men have remained in Lexing- ton to attend the annual spring dances. No Steps Toward Kemp’s Successor No steps have been taken to- ward choosing a successor to Mr. Verbon E. Kemp, executive and alumni secretary, who has ac- cepted a. position as secretary of the Charlottesville Chamber of Commerce. Mr. Kemp will not take up his new dutes until July 1, and it is probable that nothing will be done until the Alumni Board of Trustees meets on June 3. So far no recommendations have been made for selection of the new secretary who will prob- ably start work next September. T. Calyx Will Be Out By Finals Most of the engraving for the 1929 Calyx has been sent in to the staff and the remainder will be in by the end of the week. The engraving which is being done by the Capital Engraving Company of Nashville, Tenn., has proved to be exceptionally good according to C. C. Hutchinson, editor of the Calyx. The printers have assured Hutchinson that the book will be out before the end of school. 0 Frank Speer, all-American tackle of the championship Geor- gia Tech 1928 football team, was secretly married August 31 of last year to Miss Frances Shell, it was learned recently.

We --may-say that this year the elections were on higher plane than last year, or the‘ 'yeaI”:f,before. All candi- dates maintaining‘ tl1‘e‘i’r’:3-gigqements fora cleaner campaign deserve" unlimited praise.

MEET. YOUR, QBLIGATIONS At the present time ‘Finals finances ap- pear in a very critical condition. George Lanier, president of :Finals, reports that over a third of; the ,stud_ent body has failed to contribute a« cent -.tow»ar‘ds the most glo- rious set of danceswin the South, and that some of those ‘who have subscribed by post- dated checks-h”a”'ve;€in__d1;5v:t2iken them up.

This would necessitate limiting ex- penditures on decorations and calling off the midnight supper during Final bull. Such would be a shame. Don’t you want just as an elaborate Finals as ever? _.___0__j___._. FOOTBALL NEEDS NEW BLOOD Frequently when a business runs down and no longer holds the prestige it once enjoyed directors and stockholders decide to get “new blood” into the institution. They think it will stimulate enough energy to place the enterprise on its former lofty peak. ' a Football, though called a sport and game, is to some extent a business. At leastb-it is a coach's business to place winning teams on the field and teach the players clean sportsmanship. ‘ , : Washington and Lee has gotten a new coach who will put new methods into effect ‘here. He is furnishing “new blood.” But he and he alone cannot furnish enough “blood” to have a winning team. Eugene Oberst must have players ‘and co-opera» tion. I ' { For the past six years wé have seen the Warner system used exclusively on ,-our campus, but it has died a natural death‘-anll "with the coming of the new coach comes 3 new system—the Rockne style of play’. The Warner method requires big, raiigy men who are able to stand considerable punch and punishment—-men who canhit up against the brawn of theother team constantly all afternoon. But the Rockne system is a more open game. Fast, f1a"’sjhy men are more in demand than bre_lwn..‘ It has been almost impossible .for.a.. light man to Win a berth on the Generals’ ma- chine, but now that a new system is going into effect it behooves all students who have any football aspirations and interest in sec- ing Oberst make a success come out for spring practice. ~ A 9 The drills will begin Tuesday and last for six weeks. Palmer, who is in charge of the training until the arrival of Oberst and Hofiman, urges that all studentszphysically able to play football come out and he fur- ther states that men who had no chance under the old system of play may nowhavc a chance to become regulars. ' I Let’s have a big spring training squad. Get out and learn the new game. Help Oberst round out a great machine, and re- member though you may not be good enough ,for the first team you can help pmaterially by being on the field and helping whip the regulars into shape. , j , Let’s go, fellows, football at Washington and Lee needs new blood. . ~ *__?_—_..O_T.:.___. AFFECTIONS DISTINGUISHED. ' — Co-eds at the University of Cincinnati, for a lack of anything else to do, drew up “The Ten Commandments of Popularity.” These commandments were drawn up by Jame DeSerisy, president of the Young Women’s Christian association, and sports editor of the college paper. . . The commandments condemns “necking” but see “no harm in kissing a boy of whom you are particularly fond.” But they do not clarify the words “particularly fond.” For a Y. W. president the r lcs seem very lax, more the rules of a sports wi’itci', which position Miss DeSerisy also €l1_lO'_Yi%. The rules as set down by her follow: “Always be a lady. Use good taste in selecting your clothes, and do not let ac- tions belie that taste. 9 “Always be a good sport. Do what the majority wants, but not to the detriment of your own convictions and ideals. “Handling 3. line is helpful. Even if you are not the type, this ‘young-gi'eat-big} wonderful-boy’ stuff does get over, used 11; moderation, of course. . “Play tennis, golf, bridge, swim arid dance. If not all, then do these two cer- tainly—bridge and dance. “Read the papers. ‘Know your current events, politics and athletics. It is well to ,be able to converse on serious subjects are well as light ones. ‘ “Do not ‘neck.’ If a girl is charming and not worry about being of the gold-digger type. Do not kiss promiscuously. There is no harm in kissing a boy of whomvyou: are particularly fond. ’ I i 3‘ spond more properly next week, _,wlien—the_i TOPS :;?28.1i?Rec.9.r-dc!-of 7.85’: final Finals drive will be staged, ’tlmn_ they? 1 have in the past few months, one may ex-7 ‘ranks. i"Joll’n 'I..‘ peppy enough to interest a boy, she need, Bal.l.éeii,By Cm (Continued’ from page one) RING-TUM, "PHI?

The executive committee the student body nomniated two men for each position, but one withdrew from each race on the morning of the election. S. M. Jennings was named president of the student body over two can- didates, and C. H. McCain had a like number of opponents in his victor race for president of Fin- als. B. Burt, candidate for business manager of the Calyx, was the victorous one of four men. Three offices were filled on unopposed candidacies. Exciting Elections in 1920 Close, exciting elections were the feature of the 1920 balloting. C. E. L. Gill, now associate pro- fessor of economics and business administration at Washington and Lee University, gained the posi- ton of business manager of the Calyx on a majority of seven votes over W. B. Webb. Also. Fitzgerald Flournoy, now asso- ciate professor of English at Washington and Lee University, was elected editor of the South- ern Collegian on a majority of 24 Votes over J. W. Bowyer. Only one candidate was unopposed. The executive committee 1921, seeing the graphic illu- stration of the evils of “poli- ticking” sought .to bring into the constitution, in the form of an amendment, a ban against the practice, but the vote returned showed its loss by over 300 votes. An amendment authorizing the establishment of a Freshman council" was defeated by the nar- row majority of eleven votes. Al- though seven offices were unop- posed, and there were no three- cornered oppositions, the election was marked by the heavy vote cast. Six hundred and twenty out of 628 students then in school cast their votes that day. 1922 Interesting Nineteen hundred and twenty- two was a year of heavy “poli- ticking’? and much opposition. Five offices had three or more candidates running, and the un- precedented total of 642 votes was cast. Bill Holt became president of the student body, defeating two other candidates; Bob Carr won the vice—presidency over three others; L. S. Merriwether was elected secretary—t1'easurer in a field of three; Jack Thomas gain- ed the business managcrship of the RING-TUM PHI out of 2. field of four; or‘. i”.

In 1927-28 there were 16,109 used by the stu- dents outside of the building and ‘in 1928-29 there.have been so ‘far 17,865. This shows a yearly ‘increase of about four thousand, and is indicative of the increas- ‘‘ing value of the library to stu- ’ dents. ‘ The library has acquired 1,432 new books this year, of which 420 have been gifts. One-hundred /_ and ninety three magazines are now subscribed too and 23 of the countries’ leading daily newspa- _pers. ' Miss McCrum has been going .over the library lists of Trinity College and Princeton University Zslibraries looking for good books which we should have in our li- _brary. She has recently ordered Rasndall’s Universities of Eu- i rope, Hastings Religion and Eth- =: ics and the Cambridge history of ,English literature. These books , have been bought wth ifine mon- ey. A large order for books has ‘i been sent in but has not yet ar- Iv’ rived. Some of the best of these ‘are as follows: Chesterton’s Generally Speaking is one of the best current humor- . ous essays. _ Personal Letters of the Emper- or Frederick is probably the " most talked of biography at pres- = ent. Repplin’s Pere Marquette also a good biography. Williamson’s the Pathway which is published by Dutton was urged by the publishers to be named the book of the month. Joan Lowell’s Cradle of the Deep was named instead and much com- ment has resulted from the choice. A book of the month which has been favorably reviewed is Lewis Mumford’s Herman Melville. Other good books which will be in in a short while are: Henry S. Canby’s American Estimates, which should be taken as an an- ecdote to H. L. Mencken. Canby’s criticism is constructive. Siegford Sasson, Memoirs of a Fox Hunt- ing Man. This is his autobiag- raphy told in narrative style. John Drinkwater’s Bird in Hand has also been ordered. This was recently staged on Broadway. 0 Southern Coaches Invited To Attend Coaching School is Invitations to attend the Rocke- Meanwell Professional School for Athletic Coaches at Washington and Lee this summer have been sent to all the coaches of the leading schools in the South.

In contracting Rockne to come to Lexington to supervise the course in football fundamentals, pupils of the gridiron pastime will see a mentor who has a most brilliant record. Coach of the famous “Four Horsemen” and the undefeated national champions of 1925, Rockne has made the shift and pass formations nationally known. Meanwell, in charge of the basketball instruction course, is recognized as the originator of the criss-cross, short pass attack and the three-two five-man de- fense.

Houses Easy Mark For Robbers At Ill. An investigation carried on by the Daily Illini, U. of Illinois pa- per, showed that out of 88 fra- ternity houses on the campus on- ly 20 repose behind unlocked doors. The investigation, effected by means of attempt to gain en- trance to every fraternity on the campus, had as‘ its purpose the discovery of the reason for so which annually affect fraternities at this time of year. Members of the police force working on this problem, stated that one major causeifor so many robberies was that fraternities are careless and fail to notify po- lice of missing articles. _He furth- er stated that if fraternities were less careless the possibility of re- covering loss property would be greatly increased. In most cases the persons in charge of the survey were able to enter the houses, search the first and second floors, walk up to the dormitories and shout, before the snoring sleepers would awaken. W.

James Aswell, a young news- paper man,’ thinks “every life needs glamour,” and makes the- following plea in the May Col- lege‘ Humor: “I know now that this dumb eagerness blows through most of us. And I know what it is for. It is for color, brightness, glit- ter; for the glory of the world. A dream in the hand is worth two during sleep. The trouble is that so few people are willing to recognize openly that glamour is their goal, and seek it out high- heartedly. No. That would too —well, ‘mushy.’ But the search for glamour is in fact never maudlin—glamour makes one proud. “HoW little women seem know about this thing, though I think they want it badly too. Some of them know the magic of pearly limbs, of shining gowns, of husky voices in the moonlight. But that is eleinental stuff. In- tuition. What is necessary is a comprehension of the whole scene. The high mysterious darkness, the shimmer of light across the wa- ter like stacks of precarious plati- num plates; the knowledge that they and the fact of their sex are but a single instrument, to be played, oh, so carefully in a mo- mentary rhapsody. “If the people would only be candid about this; would only co- operate with each other, walk openly toward the grail. And yet, about that I have grave mis- givings. Never have I brought down one of my moments when I went intently and consciously after it. That people don’t know that what they are panting for is a gleam, a sparkle, may be the reason that they get their desire even at long intervals. Perhaps if they sought it with intention avowed, as a Rotarian seeks serv- ice, the whole business would be- come as premeditated and unre- mantic as a honeymoon.” o r OF‘ GAME fi 0 ] SIDELIGHTS O The usual reliable Slankcr lot Byrd’s drive get away from him in the fifth for a triple.

April, Virginia catcher, object- ed to the ball being used during the course of the game and threw the horsehide toward the bench without Umpire Orth’s permission. Only the fact that Smith had hit a foul on the previous ball pre- vented White from scoring in the eighth as April did his act. Smith played a fine fieldnig game at the keystone sack during the course of the game and made several good stops on almost ce1'- tain hits. His weakness at the plate keeps Ed from being a real star. Thbodeau is still shaky around the “hot corner.” Evcry‘ball hit in his direction almost was fum- bled before Thiby could make the throw. Two double plays were executed during the game with each team sharing a two—ply killing, both coming in the late stages of the contest. Byrd was “swooning in the arms of Morpheus” when White’s throw to second caught him off of the keystone sack which Jacob was blocking at the same time. Floating U.

Speaking for his own subject Prof. Ross says: “It should be obvious that stu- dents of sociology who are fortun- ate enough to rub shoulders with many races and peoples, who vis- it rural villiages, crowded baz- aars, the shops of skilled handi- craftsmen and modern factories exploiting cheap Oriental labor, who review the gamut of religion all the way from tree worship and reverence for the wayside “fakir” to Buddhist “Wat” and Moslem Mosque, who are liable to com- pare the results of American rule in the Phillipines, Dutch rule in Java, and English rule in India with those of self determination in Japan and Siam, who come to be familiar with the signs of patriar- chal rule, ancestor worship, fe- male subjection and Mohamme- dan fatalism, will have a grip on their sociology that the home- staying, class-room student can hardly attain to.” ‘ Dr. Jesse P. Rowe, Professor of Geology and Geography makes this statement about his courses in Geography of the Orient: “The way to study Geography and the peoples, climate, indus- tries, and political conditions of the various countries of the world is to travel——I consider that the students in this course got very much more than they would have had they remained at home and spent twice the amount of time in the study of books, maps and other illustrations.” Palace Barber Shop First Class Service in a San- itary Way Located in ROBERT E.
