Unless something now unforseen ocurs to prevent it, Washington and Lee will enter into three inter-colle- giate debates this year. One with Trinity College has already been ar- ranged for and the agreement closed. The debating council is now trying to make arrangements to enter into a triangular debate with the Univer- sity of North Carolina and Johns - Hopkins University. At a short ses- about two weeks ago, it was decided to leave the matter of securing the triangular debate between W. & L., North Carolina and Johns Hopkins entirely in the hands of Dr. Hancock, a faculty member. The suggestion that such a debate be held and also V that it be an annual afiair was made by Johns Hopkins. The plan seemed agreeable to the debating council and Dr. Hancock has written the Univer- sity of North Carolina and Johns Hop- kins. However no reply has thus far been received from North Carolina. The Trinity debate will come some- time in the spring term, no exact date having been agreed upon yet. It is probable that the subject which will be debated with Trinity will be the same one used in the triangular debate with Johns Hopkins and North Caro- lina, if such is held. As soon as all the details of the de- bate have been completed, the council will post a notice on the bulletin board announcing the subjects for the de- bates and the time set for the “try- outs.” The try-outs are open to every student at Washington and Lee and a large number of men are ex- pected to compete. ‘ {Wednesday night, when Elon fell VIC- Elon College Blankegi---V.

W. & L’s. passwork was good but her shots were not as accurate as in the Roanoke contest. At no point in the game did the Generals extend them- selves and the interest of the specta- tors was held only by the fact that the elements of chance which entered the fray were whether or ot the White and Blue would reach the half-century mark and would Elon’s score remain a goose-egg. Graham, Bryant and McCain all oc- cupied the limelight for W. & L.,while Captain Johnson did best for the visi- tors. The line-up: W. & L.

President Exposes Foes of College Student. ll x‘..;‘,} I The freshman class met in the chem- istry lecture room at 1 o’clock Friday, Feb. ‘Tth, tohear a talk by President Smith. Dr. Smith expressed his great pleasure at meeting the fresh- man and said that the purpose of his talk was to give them some pointers, born of long experience, which might help them to get the most good out of their college course. He said that the first year of college life was by far the most important of the four, and that it generally determined the suc- cess of a man's career both in college and in after life. Dr. Smith pointed out to the new men the three cherished ideals of the Washington and Lee campus—Loy- alty, Friendliness and Honor. He showed just what was meant by each and explained the importance of pre- serving these ideals in the smallest particular‘. He then named what he considered to be the four worst foes of a college student. The -first of these was ex- cuse—making. This is such a general fault and so often leads to untruth- fulness that it should be carefully guarded against by every student in the University. The second is gamb- ling. There is no_ business in the United States that will employ a man who gambles, so that a person who is addicted to this habit not only wastes his money, but, in the eyes of the business world, ruins his reputation as well. The third foe i sthe loafing attitude which is so prevalent among the college men of today.

[luring the trying days of the past five years Washington and Lee men have occupied leading places in prac- tically all of the varied fields of poli- tical and social activity. It is indeed gratifying to all who are interested in the University to note the remarkable success which has attended so many of her sons. Woshington an Lee men have always held positions of trust and honor in the various departments of both the national and state go- vernments of our country, and in the prr-tent crisis they have forged to the front more than ever before. The University stands third among the colleges and universities of the country in the relative number of her distinguished alumni, and her friends inagr well be proud of the part played by her sons in the great strugglewhich has just ended.

However, the new pledgings’ day of “goatdom” were short and blissful for due to the un- certainty of the government’s atti- tude to‘va",.ta.tionery, stamps, stenc- grapher and typewriter and the value of the time of the man who dictates the letter. FIRST REGULAR ENTER-l ruNMENT 0F“Y”EX- CELLENT High Class Music and Singing Feature Informal Program Which is Enjoyed By All Pres- ent. The first regular entertainment of the Y. M. C. A. was held last Friday night after the basketball rally. It was unfortunate that the entertain- ers did not come on the train expected because there would have been an even larger crowd there than there was. Those who stayed, however, were fully repaid for their time, for everybody went away with a smile on his face and some words of praise for those who had entertained him. There was music, singing, and elocution to the heart’s content, and those who saw Miss Raymond sing her character songs said that she certainly knew herb usiness. The first number on the refreshing- ly informal program was a general song by all present. Miss Miller played while Miss Betty Armstrong led the singing. After this Miss Martha Armstrong rendered Berce- use by Codard on the violin most bea- utifully, and as an encore played a Medley composed of numerous old familiar tunes. During this the audi- ence was carried back to the promise of “Annie Laurie.” And when the performer was finished, they begged for more. Miss Betty Armstrong then reappeared and sang several selections the most popular of which was “sweetheart.” Here the audience was almost persuadedinto believing that she was talking directly to them and here again they begged for more. Miss Muriel Egly appeared next and recited some very attractive pieces such as a throw off on the Ford and a piece assigning every conceivable ail- ment to the “Flu.” Miss Ruby Ray- mond, dressed in accordance with her name, then came in and showed those present what real “pep‘_’ is like. In her character songs she represented a girl and a boy at a wild west pic- ture show and swayed the audience from a feeling of the horrible to one of the ludicrous. Following this she expressed the feelings of a rich little boy and wanted his “Pa” to be a “janitor man” so that he could go after beer with a “nice tin bucket.” And to the surprise and delight of everybody “they did it all ovre again.” This time the biggest hit was a song by Mfiss Raymond entitled “When I Kiss an Italian Girl.”, In her red‘ dress and having a dark complexion she could well represent an Italian, and this coupled with her voice and acting enabled her to render the piece most excellently. In closing the audience showed the entertainers how it could sing the “Swing,” and all went home wishing such things happened more often.

Womeldorf, ..Men- ber of Exit, Arrives in Am- erica. The Croix de Gerre awarded by‘ the French government to the Wash- ington and Lee Ambulance unit for its work on the battlefields of Belgium was received by Dr. Henry Loius Smith last Saturday night. The medal was sent by Forrest Fletcher, track coach at Washington and Lee for several years, who left here in charge of the Ambulance unit in 1917, and who has recently been promoted to a lieutenant. The cross bears a silver star which means that it is a divisional citation. The citation it- self was received several weeks ago, and both it and the medal will be framed and kept by the University as souvenirs of its part in the Great War. G. R. Womeldorf, a member of the Ambulance unit, whose leg had to be amputated just below the knee, on ac- count of a shell wound received in Belgium, has arrived in America and is in a hospital in New York. His was the only wound of a really seri- ous nature received by any member of the unit. FRATERNITIES PLEDGED AND INITIATED MANY (Continued from Page 3) LeVcy of Washington, D. C. New Men: C. E.
