The Finals finance committee has. been whole-heartedly behind the informal, the forty—nve men of the committee planning to es- cort that number of girls, and additional indications of a record breaking attendance were seen in the presence of more than 125 S.

Hundreds of stu- dents are daily taking workouts, the becoming noticeable only in the last few days. Even though the movement is young it is so large that every afternoon students are seen in the building for a hand- ball court, a medicine ball, or the parallel bars. The newcomer to Washington and Lee asks why this sudden frenzied attempt for physical per- fection. An upperclassman can easily explain it. In a couple of weeks an event is coming which tires strongest of bodies. A per- iod of sleepless nights and hectic (lays, a period that only the physi- cally fit can see from beginning to end.

Harrison, director of Washington and Lee athletic pub- licity, explained the covering of athletic news to S. I. P. A. dele- gates gathered in Lee chapel yes- terday afternoon. Purposes of such publicity is to increaw the school's prestige, increase the game attendance, and to aid team members toward all-star choices, according to Harrison.

HOPE TO GET MORE MEN OUT May Be Coach Next Year If Interest Is Shown. Pro The resolution that boxing be made a major sport next season was passed at a recent meeting of the Athletic council. Under the constitution of the General Athletic association, such a move must be approved by the student body and the question will be sub- mitted at the next University assembly. The action was taken by the Athletic council to stimulate in- terest in boxing at Washington and Lee and bring out a greater number of candidates for the pu- gilistic squad next fall. The council recommended that the sport be made a major for only one year to_determine the student body response with the possibility of the move being permanent if the interest shown next year is sufficient. Boxing has become very popu- lar as an intercollegiate sport in recent years, especially in North- ern schools. In recent years it has made inroads into the South- ern conference, being made a major sport at the Universities of Virginia, North Carolina, and Florida. In the event that the action of the Athletic council is approved by the student body, Coach Fletcher stated that steps would be taken in securing a profes- sional coach for next season’s team. 0 Liquor Is Banned From Wahoo F rats Members of the Greek letter fraternities at University of Vir- ginia without a dissenting vote, have adopted resolution forbidding storing of liquors in their chap- ter houses, Edwin H. Gibson, as- sistant Virginia attorney general, was informed recently by Dr. Ed- win A. Alderman, president of the institution. Major Gibson visited the institution several weeks ago in an investigation of charges that liquor was being kept in a fraternity house. 0____._ Ken Strong, N. Y. U. all- American fullback, has changed his mind, and will stick with the college nine rather than play pro- fessional baseball. Girl Delegate Here F or Press Convention Writes That She Is Having a Swell Time Dear Mabel: This convention is the stuff. We arrived here Wednesday night and were immediately rushed off our feet by the best looking boys I have ever seen. They took us all to some fraternity house, I think they call it the Phi Gummy House, and you should have seen hownice they were to us. We danced, and after a while some pretty little boy played a guitar and another boy with curly hair played a saxophone. Then there was a perfectly adorable child who sang for us, and another little freshman did card tricks. They have some real Spanish students here, straight from Mex- ico, and they came out in native costume and sang Spanish folk- songs. I couldn’t understand what the words meant of course, but one of them was looking right at me and I’m sure it was some- thing romantic he sang. After that one of our own girl delegates gave a recitation, and you should have seen how charm- ed everyone was. We danced some more then, and had some delight- ful refreshments. One student went to get me some coffee, but it tasted awfully funny, as if there was something in it, and I wouldn’t drink more than three cups. Gee, it was wonderful, Mabel. The cute little boy who played the guitar came over and talked to meand I felt so thrilled when I discovered he was a big man on the campus. He showed me all his keyes, and really Mabel they are great honors. He said he would give me one before I leave, and I’m going to be awfully nice to him in the mean time. Well, after a while he took me home, and told me all about Washington and Lee; and really Mabel he must be a big man on the campus, for everything he mentioned was something he was president of or something like that—you know what I mean. Well, he was awfully nice, and I let him stay a long time. He’s coming to see me tonight, and I’m going to wear my new blue dress with the sliding sleeves.

Printers who refuse to accept copy the same day of publication kill live news, she said. Mrs. Hill advised young papers to adopt the “pay as you go” plan, to keep the paper out of debt, and to begin with a sinking fund in case of emergencies, to retain the confidence of printers. Faculty Supervision “Too much faculty supervision is resented by the students,” she said. “Two weeks ago I turned a whole issue over to the staff, not even suggesting a single ar- ticle and they did very well,” And Mrs. Hill exhibited the paper turned out entirely by students. Miss Charles Anthony suggest- ed several ways to pick a staff of high school students, pointing out that in schools that had no course in Journalism, it was dif- ficult to determine where the tal- ent was to be found. In larger schools a widely used plan is to have the department- al heads to have their teachers on the look out for good material. Together the teachers make their choices, and the result is usually satisfactory, she stated. Start a Paper “In one instance, three young men students presented to the head of the English department, a request that they be allowed to start a school paper. The per- mission was granted, and a meet- ing was called of the three boys and faculty advisors. One of them was appointed editor, one the business manager and the other was made the managing editor. “The three students selected industrious and willing persons to serve on the staff. All were ap- pointed with the. exception of the reporters, who were chosen by try-outs. “It has been a piece of work that has produced eager and in- dustrious workers, and every member has gained in fun and in ways journalistic enough to make him feel glad that three public- spirited young men felt the need and had the initiative to found a newspaper,” she concluded. can er school’:; schools,” Doctor Smith Lists Qualities Lee .lournalist Describes Type Of ‘Newspa- per Man General Lee Visualized. ELLARD STRESSES A COLLEGE EDUCATION Points. Out Advantages Col»- lege Trained Man Has In Newspapers. Independent thought, all—Ameri- can character, active christianit_v and a non-chrystalized progres- siveness are the qualities a journ- alist of today must possess to be of the Robert E. Lee journalistic type, said Dr. Henry Lewis in the opening speech to the 128 dele- gates of the S. I. P. A. Convent- ion, in Lee chapel yesterday. Doctor Smith further pointed that the journalists of today must not only be a writer of news, but is by ‘necessity a teacher and a preacher. He discussed the im- portance of the press of today in all the events of the nation and the world. Following Doctor Smith’s talk Ellard spoke a few words to the convention of the necessity of a college education for a newspaper man. He pointed out the advant- ages that the college trained man would have over the untrained and uneducated person. The editors of the various mag- azines, newspapers, and annuals which won contests in the con- vention were then introduced and invited to say a few words. Miss Gretchen S. Mason, editor of “Sky High,” of Asheville, N. C. high school, was introduced to the con- vention as first of these repre- sentatives. She spoke of her ap- preciation of again being at the convention, paid high tribute to last year’s convention and its backers, and gave a brief sum- mary of her publication. Repre- sentatives were then introduced from other schools which won prizes in last year’s contest out- lining their work and their publi- cation. These were editors of: “The Record”, Staunton, Va., “The Chatterbox,” Danville, Va., “The Homespun,” Greensboro, N. C. The roll was then called by I.‘ W. Hill. Each member was asked to stand as their respective nam- es were called in order that ev- eryone could learn as many of the delegates as possible as well as to give each a ribbon of identi- fication. In closing Mr. Ellard announced a convention to be held on Satur- day night at the Methodist church, Main street, urging all the delegates to be there and as- suring them of an interesting program. and Thirty Herelor 3.

Campaign Expenses Of Recent Election Vary From $7 to $100; One Makes Money The campaign costs of candi- dates in the recent Washington and Lee student body elections varied greatly, according to the statements of those competing. They ran the scale from seven to one hundred dollars. The large campaign expendi- tures were borne by canldidates for one of the dance leaderships. As is the custom, the fraternity to which these candidates are members paid the greater part of this sum, amounting in one case, as near as could be figured, to well over one hundred dollars. Campaign cards, in this case, cost twenty dollars. The remain- ing sixty dollars went for cigars, cigarettes, novelties, and various forms of refreshments. It was almost impossible to get" any defi- nite statement as to the amount of money spent for refresh- ments. The candidates were re- ticent concerning this matter, and placed the expenditure of the eighty-odd dollars under the hazy head of “miscallaneous.” One candidate said that his expenses amounted to only twenty dollars, but later reluctantly admitted that his fraternity had spent at least triple that sum, although the absence of books made this statement a matter of conjecture. Make Agreement. Two competing candidates had agreed before the campaign start- ed that they would eliminate all expenses not considered vital, such as cards and signs. In both cases, the total costs for each was estimated as not over twenty dollars. Neither gave out cigars or any other items which might be considered as coming under the head of “miscallaneous.” None/ of the unopposed candi- dates spent over twelve dollars. Cards, usually only one set, were used. It was noticed, however, by all the unopposed candidates that personal expenditures rose considerably higher during elec- tion week than was usual. One candidates said, “I bought soft drinks for every student and his uncle. And I guess I averaged at least three packs of cigarettes every day.

" The convention was officially opened with the morning sesion held at 11 o’clocl{ in Lee Chapel with Professor Roscoe B. Ellard, director of the school of Journal- ism, presiding. The Rcv. VVilliam W. Morton gave the invocation, which-was followed by the addres of Dr. Henry Lewis Smith, Presi- dent of the University. Doctor Smith’s subject, “Journalism Ma- triculates,” dealt with the rapid advancement of the profession in the last few years. Names Qualities In his address, the speaker told of some qualities necessary in a good newspaper man. “A good newspaper man,” he said, “must be an iddependent thinker, and all-American patriot, and a non- chrystalized progressive.” At 12:45 p. m. the convention broke up into discussion groups. Section A discussed the problems of school publicity, with V. C. Jones, assistant in the school of Journalism, presiding; Miss Ev- ely I. Moore, of the E. C. Glass,‘ high. school of Lynchburg read a,‘ paper on “High School News in the Local Papers.” Peyton R. Harrison, manager of the Univer- sity athletic news here gave a talk on “Covering School Athletic News.” Staff l’1‘onlems Section B dealt with the prob- lems that are confronted in choos- ing, organization and stimulation of staffs, with I. ‘William Hill, assistant in, the School of Journ- alism, in the chair. Two papers were read by faculty advisers. Miss Charles Anthony, of the John Marshall high school, Richmond, read an article, “Selection of School Publication Staffs,” and Mrs. Nora Payne Hill, of the Dan- ville, Va., high school delivered one on “Staff Problems.” In he afternoon there was a faculty discusion held in the Journalism lecture room and a student dscussion in Lee Chapel. Following these, the delegates were the guests of the Athletic Association at the ‘Washington and Lee-Virginia Poly baseball game on Wilson field. What to Print Mrs. Nina Covington, of Ra- leigh, N. C., gave a tall; on “Sig- nificant Problems of Publication Ethics” which opened the Friday night session. Hcr talk was bas- ed chiefly on “wliat to print” and “what to reject.” This mornings session was op- ened with round table discussions dealing with annuals in section A and with the practice of writ-_ ing in section B. In the first sec- tion Ed. H. Ould, business man- ager of the 1929 Calyx, made a talk on “The Business of an An- nual” and Miss Emily Hollaway, of John Marshall high spoke on “Getting and Selling Advertising for high School Annuals.” She drew a distinction between “get- ting” ant “selling” ads, treating her subject in a novel way. A Convention Picture In section I}, I. William Hill spoke on “Accuracy in Reporting” and Prof. W. L. Mapel on “Writ- ing the Headline.”.

To the delegates to the annual Southern Interscholastic Press Association, Washing- ton and Lee extends through its student newspaper, a hearty welcome. The con- vention draws to a close tonight with the banquet. It is sincerely hoped that all who are attending are getting valuable ideas to take back with them. The Association does a great work in bringing together the delegates from all over the South to discuss problems of school publications. Experienced men, who know the newspaper business, have certainly brought messages of value. The school publications that were entered in this, the fourth convention, have been excellent, far above the standards set in preceding ones. They reflect great credit on the part of their editors, business man- agers, staffs and advisers. To those who won awards for excellence, the RING-TU PHI sends its congratulations. To those‘who failed to win, “congratula- tions, also, and better luck next time.” For - all the papers, annuals, and magazines were good, and it was no easy task the judges ' had in selecting the best. It is hoped that the delegates have en- joyed their brief visit to the campus of Washington and Lee in every way. The fraternities, the School of Journalism, the officers of the convention, and the student body as a whole, are glad to have had you ‘as their guests and say whole-heartedly, “Come again.” __.___0_._____. “SHOOTING AT THE TIRES.” “We were only shooting at the tires.” The same old story, and another death is laid at the altar of law enforcement where officers become too zealous and overstep the bounds of their duty. ‘Down in Southwest Virginia, a few nights ago, three officers sought to stop a car by “shooting at the tires.” They missed their uncertain target and one of the shots killed J. W. Kendrick, a student of Emory and Henry college. According to the story of the officers, they received complaints that two young men were creating a disturbance in the town of Abingdon. The car in which they were riding was accosted about a mile out- side the town and ordered to halt. When the driver refused to stop, the shots, three in number, were fired. One of the men was said to have been charged with driving while intoxicated and the other was drunk- enness. According to the story of the young men, they were not drinking, there was no whisky in the car, and had created no disturbance in Abingdon. They had started to Bristol, but decided not to go and when they turned around and started back toward Abingdon some one began shooting at them. They were not ordered to halt, did not know who did the shooting, and moved away as fast as they could. There was a third man in the car who does not seem to have been wanted on any Edito: ' Managei ' ’ Manager . message. nations will have started. charge. One of the bullets struck him in the back of the head and came out through his left eye. He was taken to a hospital and died some hours later. The sheriff of the county has termed the affair “unfortunate.” It is most unfor- tunate. It is so very unfortunate that it should never have been allowed to happen. It should never happen again. Officers have shot at many tires in sections all over the country. The times that they have hit their mark are few. Kendrick was an orphan. His father had been killed in an automobile wreck some ‘months ago in Florida. He has two uncles, however, who have announced that they "will prosecute the case if it takes their last cent, and they are wealthy men. The students at Emory and Henry have sent a protest to Governor Byrd asking that the ends of justice be served. Whether they will be served is another matter. Cer- tainly the family of the slain youth will exert every power at their disposal. And ‘if public opinion means anything those guilty will be punished. ._..MQM____. MOTHER’S DAY Sunday is Mother’s Day, and willnbe cele- brated as such by sons and daughters all over the world. Florists, greeting card _companies,and the Western Union would not let us forget to send a message to our mothers. Mothers who have sons in Washington and Lee would like to hear from them. They would especially like to get a Mother’s Day If you can afford it, follow the suggestions of the advertisers, and send her a box of candy, a bouquet, or a telegram. But if you just send a letter to “the sweet- est mother a man ever had,” she’ll appre- ciate it just as much. __M__0_:_.__ CORN—ITS USEFULNESS. Scientists have found a new use for corn, and it isn’t in a drink. No doubt many young people remember dad telling of corn being used for foods, but the most frequent use of corn today, many a city chap is led to believe, is in drink. Seldom does such a youth ever see it used in any other man- ner. But in years to come, possibly, every newspaper will be printed on paper made from corn. Although nothing more than experimen- tal steps have been made, it is not an illogi- cal conclusion to suppose that within the next century paper from corn will be even "more common than any of its present uses. Recently scientists found many uses for ‘the once wasted wheat and oat straw and now with corn being used for paper the ‘novelist may sit by the bubbling brook, get his inspiration, watch the corn grow which ‘will later furnish paper for printing, and the wheat grow which will furnish ink in ‘the printing. These scientists—these inven- tions——these lovelorn novelists. TOM LOOK INTO TOMORROW NOW Less than two weeks from now exami- Already wise students have begun scanning the pages of texts. They are refreshing their mem- ories for the final reckoning. They are looking into tomorrow now. They are not “putting off until tomorrow that which they can do today.” Final examinations begin Tuesday, May 21, and it behooves every student, especially those candidates for degrees, to look into tomorrow now.

Is AQuestion Presented To Delegates Can annual ads be made to pay? This was the question discussed by Miss Emily Holloway, advisor of the Marshallite, John Marshall ‘High school, Richmond, during the S. I. P. A. convention. , Taking up the various problems which confront ad getters, Miss ‘ Holloway told how the Marshall- ite staff had tried to solve them. She criticised the admission by merchants that. annual advertising was a donation, and said such an admission should be displeasing to the business staff. “I see no reason why with a cooperating student body, and I believe their cooperation is ours for the knowing how to ask for it, and with ad selling by the staff, it should be demonstrat- ed to a business firm that it’ does pay to advertise in a high school annual,’,_’ the advisor said. An attempt to make annual ad- vertising attract attention was made this year by the Marshall- ite staff, Miss Holloway explain- ed. A poster containing the names of advertisers was placed in a prominent place and the stu- dents asked to support the mer- chants. It produced results. A request was received from one merchant that his name be placed on the board. The advisor blamed much of annual advertising uneffectiveness on the advertisers themselves. “Some ads are so written that they sell themselves and others so that they make little or no impression upon the reader. I have heard the criticism of annual ads that they usually lack appeal, that it is evident on the face of them no return is expected. While I do not think this is always true, I do believe we could improve our selling of ads if more atten- tion was paid to the wording of them,” she said. “The problem in getting ads is almost entirely the problem of selling ads,” Miss Holloway con- cluded.

State college students were taken into the hands of the law last Wednesday for stealing a stone frog and a stone turtle from the yard of a Raleigh res- idence. The boys were fined costs and required by the judges to carry their loot back to where they got it from while a grinning cop accompanied them. Neither the court nor the cops could understand what the boys PAGE’S Meat Market Phones 126 and 426 register . wanted with the turtle and the frog, both of which weighed more than fifty pounds. Late Wed- nesday night an officer found them lugging the stone menagerie out toward the college. It was not the first time the frog and turtle had been pilfered, and a year or so ago some Cary High school boys carried off a few cannon balls from the Capitol Square.

Gentlemen: I have used Edgeworth Smoking Tobacco for the past twenty-five years. Two years ago I took my trusty briar along on a trip abroad, intending to revel in the delights of the famous mixtures in London. I confess that I did not carry along with me any of the little blue tins of Edgeworth. But the joke was on me. I went back to Edge- worth, only this time I had to pay 45c for a 15c tin of Edgeworth! Incidentally, on a trip through England and later through Ireland, I was surprised to find the wide distribu- tion and ready sale of Edgeworth in Great Britain. A frequent and famil- iar sign in Dublin, Cork and other ' cities in Ireland was a white streamer announcing a new shipment of Edge- worth"; To make such a conquest in the home of smoking tobacco must be very gratifying _to your house.

Intent upon finding a half miler to fill the shoes of Captain Backus next year, Coach Forrest Fletcher will do a little experimenting in this department today when his proteges their schedule against the Blue Devils of Duke on Wilson field. Dickey, stellar quarter-miler, is entered in the half, while Hickin, who has been concentrating on the mile and two-mile runs this spring, will also start in the 880. end Both runners are new to this distance and will have a hard time replacing Backus, whose time for the half hovered around 1 min- ute 57 seconds in the state meet last Saturday, but Fletcher will probably see his entries cover the two laps in about 2 minutes flat. Dickey clocked Wednesday, for the ifirst time, ran the 880 in 2 minutes 5 seconds. Simmogos, who has acted as the running mate to Backus this year, is also slated to graduate this June and will end his career today running the quarter. In the distance runs, Duke will have four members of their championship four-mile relay team. Doxey, Woodward, Sim- mons and Ashworth placed among the first five in the cross-country race with the Generals last fall and have been consistent point scorers for the Blue Devils in every meet this spring. Field Man Improves. Although the field contingent has not been a shining light to Fletcher this sason, a little spark of optimism was kindled this week when Fangboner tossed the discus over 115 feet. Fangboner was one of the four point earners in the state meet and is expected to give the Carolina team a good deal of trouble in both the discus and javelin. If it can be arranged so that the men will not miss too much time from their examinations, Fletcher will take about half dozen to the Southern conference championships in Birmingham next Saturday. of conference Exclusive the 1’ Fletcher Shifts,Lin—eFup for Duke Mee THE RING-TUM ICPHI PAGE THREE t Today; Captain Backus.

Miss Moore lists four advan- tages of using the page in the city daily instead of publishing school papers. They follow: (1.) It relieves the school of the financial burden incident upon publishing a school paper. (2.) The students will come in contact with the editorial staff of a real newspaper thus broadening their views and their knowledge. (3.) Pupils will take greater‘ pains with work they feel will go before a large adult audience. (4.) It saves time spent in so- liciting advertisements and in cir- culation problems. Miss Moore described the tend- ency of regular city reporters of playing up the scandal rather than the constructive news orig- inating in schools. Development of school news bureaus with ad- vanced journalism student per- sonal to furnish school news to the papers would remedy this, she thinks. m I IRWIN & CO., Inc.
