UNIT ‘War Department Makes Appoint- ment After MuchDelay—Unit to Organize in Near Future-- Training Optional. Captain Bemiss of the regular army has recently been selected by the war department to take charge of the R. O. T. C. unit at Washington and Lee, after many unsuccessful appointments which were not acceptable to the Uni- versity. This information was given mut by Dr. Smith last week. The new commandant has recently visited Lex- ington and conferred with President Smith regarding the military work. He made a very favorable impression during his stay in Lexington and it is expected that he will prove a valuable asset to the military department of the University. Considering the time that he will‘ arrive, there seems to be some doubt but it is expected that the very near future wil witness a renewal of the R. O. T. C. work at Washington and Lee. In the old R. O. T. C., which was ‘supplanted last fall by the s. A. T. C., there was a regulation which provided that there must be at least one hun- dred members to the unit. This ruling has been annulled by the war depart- ment and will consequently not apply to the future R. O. T. C. ‘ As stated in a previous issue of the Ring-tum—Phi, the training will be elective unless the Board of Trustees sees fit to make it compulsory, which is not likely. ‘FINAL WEEK PROGRAMS MUST BE ORDERED NOW l Limited Number to Be Printed and Orders Should be Placed Immediately. The invitations for Finals are be- ing made by the Chas. Elliott Co. of Philadelphia, the dummy for which is at present on the bulletin board. The cover, which is of special design, is unusually attractive and neat and though the material for the inside has yet to be prepared, this will be done as soon as the orders have been taken and will be along the same lines as that of last year. Due to an increase in the price of paper, the invitations will be sold this year at an absolute loss for 35 cents. ‘Every student should make an effort to buy one or more not only on this acount'but for reasons of his own.

He ‘was the guest of the Sigma Chi fra- ternity of which he is a member. Lieutenant Miller was stationed at Camp Funston. See McCrum’s Ad on Page 3. WASHINGTON AND BY THE STUDENTS AND FOR THE STUDENTS LEE UNIVERSITY, TUESDAY, APRIL 8 1919 iGENERALS TAKE THRILLING GAME FR(_lM_ LINCOLN NINE Nerve-Wrecking Fiasco Ends 1 to 0_ in Favor of White and Blue. Visitors Threaten in Ninth—Graham Pitches Air-Tight Ball. Mattox’s Work Behind Bat and With the Stick Brings Favorable Comment The Generals defeated Lincoln Memorial University Monday 1 to 0 in a game featured by air-tight pitching on both sides. Mercer was at his best and at no time in the game did he allow himself to become rattled. With three men on in the ninth Graham forced the batters to hit and made two assists, the last resulting in a double play which closed the game. Jimmy Mat- tox was responsible for the lone run of the Generals, his timely hit coming in the fifth inning. His steal to second, followed by a trip to third on the catcher’s bad peg, and his score on Drye’s sacrifice fly gives him the run almost single handed.

Major Andrew H. Woods, ’93, of the U. S. M. C. since 1917, and before that of Canton Christian College, was the speaker at the University Assembly held on Monday, April 7th. His inter- esting and instructive address was on the subject of China and the power for good exerted by Canton Christian Col- lege. After the opening prayer by Dr. Shannon and a presentation of the World Fellowship Campaign by Frank Stipes, Dr. H. D. Campbell introduced the speaker, telling of his athletic, scholastic and campus leadership while he was a student here. Major Woods prefaced his address by saying that the misinformation in ' regard to China is very great and that now is the time above all others to get the Chinese to understand us and our civilization. He then spoke briefly about the physical qualities and re- sources of the country. It is a very beautiful land, comparable to all those noted for their scenery, and the three great rivers extending all the way across it are navigable to the fullest extent. The vast mineral wealth of China is not fully utilized because of the Chinese veneration for the cus- toms oftheir ancestors. However, he emphasized the suc- cess the'Chinese make at intensive (Continued on Page 4) WILSON ISSUES CALL FOR DEBATERS Davidson and Trinity Will be De- bated in May. Preliminaries Held This Week. Preliminaries to elect five inter- collegiate__ debaters, three for the Trinity debate at Washington and Lee and two for the Davidson debate at Davidson, will be held on Saturday night, April 12th, at 7:30 p. m. in the Washington Literary Society hall. This is necessary, due to the short- ness of time before the debates, the Davidson debate coming on May 5th or 6th, and the Trinity debate about the middle of May. Subject for the preliminaryspeeches will be: Resolved, That the United States Government Should Own and Operate the Railroads in this Coun- try. Main speches are limited to ten minutes and rebuttal to three minutes. In the Davidson debate, Washington and Lee has the affirmative of this question and the same subject will most likely be used in the Trinity de- bate. All candidates should hand in their names as soon as possible to George VVilson, secretary of the debating council. ‘W. & L. vs. v.

MOOMAW Offers Six Months’ Service, Without Compensation, to Red Cross if Time is Given Him to Inquire Into His Brother’s Case. Dr. Ben C. Moomaw, brother of Lieutenant Clovis Moomaw, who has been officially reported killed in ac- tion by the war department has been in Washington the last few weeks trying to obtain a permit from the government to go in search of Lieu- tenant Moomaw. In spite of the above report, Dr. Moomaw believes that his brother is still living. The report of the war department announc- ing his death in action bears the date of Sept. 29, 1918, while many private reports state that Lieutenant Moomaw was seen in action on the 4th, 5th and 6th of October. It is on these reports that Dr. Moomaw bases his hope that his brother is still living. Dr Moomaw has been in conference with Mr. W. H. Walling, one of the high officials of the Red Cross and he has offered six months’ service in France with the Red Cross, without any compensation, if they will give him a few days of the time to inquire in Lieutenant Moomaw’s case. It is necessary that he get a permit from the government before passports will be issued him. As the Ring-tum—Phi goes to press no information has been received as to whether or not Dr. Moo- maw has ben successful in his efforts. DR. GRANVILLE CAMPBELL GOES TO FRANCE W. O. Burtner, ’18, Takes Charge of HislClasses. Dr. R. G. Campbell, professor of Political Science, is on a six months’ leave of absence to give lectures to the American army of occupation in France, while Mr. W. O. Burtner will take his place teaching Politics dur- ing the spring term. Dr. Campbell is under contract with the war work council and will talk to our sol- diers chiefly on the subjects of gov- ernment and government problems. Examinations in Politics were held ahead of time so that he could report in New York on April 1st. Mr. Burtner is well qualified to teach Political Science. He got his Mas- ter’s degree last year and has had con- siderable work in the school of com- merce. He was elected to Phi Beta Kappa in 1917. Thrift is short hand for “Waste not, want not.” Buy W. S.

It contains many in- teresting letters from practically all the members of the class who are lo- cated in all corners of the Universe. The editor, Omer T.

BACK ON THE JOB After an interruption of two weeks in which our trials were not as pleas- ant as they might have been, the edi- tors are glad to resume their work on the Ring-tum-Phi. It is our purpose this term to fur- nish the student body and the alumni with a newsy paper, and to boost every activity which goes on at Wash- ington and Lee. That, we attempted to do last term, and we believe that we met with a certain degree of success. However, we are not satisfied with at- taining only a certain degree of suc- cess but we want a hundred per cent success. Finals will command much of our attention and we assure the Executive Committee that our columns are al- ways open to them for any articles they see fit to insert. We would sug- gest that an Alumni Edition of the Ring-tum-Phi be published and a copy of it sent to every alumnus. However, the editors of the Ring-tum-Phi can- not accomplish this alone, but must have the consent and the aid of the committee on Finals. Every effort should be made to reach every alum- nus, especially those who are return- ing from the battle fields of France,and mailing them a copy of an Alumni Edition of the paper would perhaps be the most effectual means of reaching them. We hope President Fain and his committee will act on the sugges- tion in the near future. The White and Blue nine will not be neglected by us. The Ring-tum-Phi is going to stay behind the team until the season is over whether it is a los- ing or winning aggregation. The Fish- burne game was not at all a fair test of the ability of the team. In fact it was merely a practice game, not a part of the regular schedule. Intercollegiate debating, the dances, tennis, Y. M. C. A. entertainments, literary societies, etc., will receive the usual publicity that has been given them in the past. To obtain the ends we have outlined above, we again ask the co-operation of the student body for without its help our efforts must be in vain. to again,—Washington and Lee has caught the “fcver,’} for spring has« come. It has been a hard winter withi all its intensive study and compul- sory gym, and exams and the rest,but all that is now a thing of the past. We are on the session’s home stretch with the last three months and the best three months ahead,—three months of spring. First among the many campus ac- tivities claiming attention this spring is baseball,the seanson's premier sport. After a two year wartime inter- mission the national sport has again come into its own at Washington and Lee. Of course it is the privilege and duty of every man to support the White and Blue nine with the physical and mental abilities as has so gen- erously been done along financial lines. And though it might seem unpoetical to speak of such mundane matters now, baseball subscriptions are past due and to make the season a success they must be paid at once. There will be other sports to serve as outlets for the surplus energy of youth in the next three months. Row- ing, tennis, golf, hiking, track, swim- ming and the immortal “suicide,,—- each will claim its devotees among these who desire to avoid setting-up exercises and still follow the faculty's universal prescription of exercises as a substitute for ill health. But who minds, in the spring? And the dances! “In the spring a young man’s fancy,” etc., said the poet. Ah yes, the Easter dances are not very far off, and then as the cli- max of everything comes Finals. “Trip it lightly as ye go" this spring for the muse of terpsichore will come into her own. Perhaps Brownie’s or- chestra will get busy again with music for the study-weary student as the cool April evenings wax on. Who knows, in the spring? Then there are three more months of study ahead, a whole form for the accomplishment of good resolutions and the acquirement of knowledge. Every man should remember at all‘ times the one all-important purpose for which he came to college,—to get an education. It may require more will power to study in the spring, but with the third term lengthened this year to make up for war’s upheaval, diligent knowledge at the storehouses of knowledge is even more important than formerly. So through fall, winter and spring, Washington and Lee moves on, each passing day bringing its opportunity for those fortunate ones who breathe of her breath of-life to acquire their share of her immortal spirit. We are on the session’s home stretch with three months of work and play ahead, months of spring; and the final value and success of a year at college still hangs in the balance for every man. It is easy to make each day count for the best in every way, if one wills,— in the spring. ._E, D, C. RECONCILIATION For the past year or so sparks of dissatisfaction due to the extremely high prices charged for a poor-class of pictures at the only picture show in town, the Lyric, have been smoulder- ing in the breasts of all of the Wash- ington and Lee students and also a lpaying one of the owners $2,100 for rent, and a like sum to the manager though there seems to be some con- flict as to the accuracy of these fig- ures. At a meeting of the student body, which was attended by practically all of the men in college, it was decided by a unanimous vote that the Lyric be boycotted until the price of ad- mission be lowered and a better class of pictures be presented to the public, keeping in mind the fact that we were not trying to confiscate property but wanted a square deal to ourselves and also to the Lyric, though the manage- ment could not see this at first. Cir- culars were distributed presenting the situation in a fair and accurate man- ner. No unfair means were resorted to but on the contrary the action was orderly and carried on in la business- like manner. This state of affairs soon came to an end, we are glad to say, after several conference with the management of the Lyric. Mr. Weinberg decided to give our propositions a fair trial and he reduced his prices of admission and this was acceptable to the student body. And now that our difficulties have been reconciled, it is urged that the student body stand behind the Lyric in its sincere efforts to give the most efiicient service at the lowest con- sistent price, allowing for a reasonable return on its investment. THOSE EASTER HOPS After two long months rather void of social diversion, Washington and Lee will soon wake to the cymbal and drum, to say nothing of “Old Man Wright's" saxaphone. Once more will fair ones trod our streets and view our historic scvenery by sunlight,dance by lamplight and—later enjoy the moonlight. Welcome the short inter- lude will be after the obnoxious exer- cises We have just passedmor failed to pass. The success of themid-winterdances showed that Washington and and Lee had come back to a pre-war basis so- cially as in other things. And the re- port that they “were the best ever” points to still better ones this time. There are more old men back now, and this with many other things will go to make these the best Easter dan- zes for a long, long time. The first dance on April 21st will be the Thirteen club German, led by L. T. Brown with Miss Elizabeth Adams of Lynchburg, Va. The “13" club affair is always delightful and we can look for a “super—production” :his time. On the afternoon of the 22nd, there will be a dansant given by the baseball ceam. Further announcement will be given about this later. That night, April 22nd, the Cotillion dub German will be the attraction,led W J. A. Witt with Miss Cotton Timber- lake of Raleigh, N. C. This will be the second affair of the year led by ihe able VVitt, now Chancellor in the Law School, and from the great suc- cess of “Fancy Dress” we expect some class under his leadership of the Cot- ilion dance.

S. “Waste phasis on at this point was that China possesses very democratic governing units which she has absolutely failed to make use of, i. e., her smaller vil- lages and larger towns. The inhabi- tants of the villages know very little about the central government of China which has been a democracy, in theory since 1911. Public opinion is in real- ity the governing power of these local units. Major Wood then pointed out the three outstanding faults of the Chin- ese character, which have held her back in her government and civiliza- tion. These arc China’s lack of a common written and spoken language . as a medium of information to her people, the theoretic turn of mind of the average Chinaman, and the dis- dain of the official classes for the mas- ses. All these points were well illu- strated from the speaker"s ample fund of anecdotes. . He next told of the founding of Can- ton- Christian College and of the work that is being done there in the up- building of a new China. He said that the fruit of the educational seed being planted there was being felt all over South-China. The future leaders of the republic are being taught prac- tical things and are getting the cor- rect view of Western civilization. The six hundred students learn the English language and over ninety per cent be- come Christians, to go back to their homes as Christian leaders. After Major Wood's address Dr.’ Howe told of a student who had come here from that college and had made good in more than one way. Inciden- tally he succeeded in getting an A in Chemistry 1. Dr. Howerton closed the Assembly with a short, concentrated talk on World Citizenship on the Campus. He pointed out the interlinking of the welfare of the United States and that of the world, saying that Major Woods is warring just as much for us in China as he was in France. He made an appeal for world citizenship, with‘ an effort to make the world safe for liberty, civilization and Christianity. He called attention to the advantages which Washington and Lee students enjoy and asked that some of their wealth be shared with the students of Canton Christian College. 0 FELLOWSHIP FUND TOTALS $716 Likely that Goal Will Be Reached By Night. I The campaign to raise $1,000 for educational work in China is meeting with much success. Subscription from 203 men aggregate $716, and many reports are yet to be filed. The nine teams, representing forty- six workers, subscribed $222. . A complete report of the campaign will be made tonight or Wednesday, as the executive committee may see fit. Since no one was qualified for Junior manager for football, the coun- cil decided to elect three men to liven competition and make sure of a good man for 1920. These men are M. C. Jones, J. H. Bryan, and W. C. King. The basketball Junior assistants for 1920 are J. P. Hill and Gordon Moss.

HOWERTON DELIVERS STRONG ADDRESS AT Y “Are You Bearing Fruit?” is the Question Presented bySpeak- er at Regular Religious Meeting The regular mid-week meeting of the Y. M. C. A. started again last Wed- nesday night when Dr. Howerton spoke on the subject “Bearing Fruit.” Due probably to the fact that a good many men were still out of town the attendance was not as large as should have been. Those who were there, however, were very much impressed by what they heard and will not be able to get away from the question asked by the speaker, “Are you hear- ing Fruit?” Dr. Howerton took for the founda- tion of his talk the fifteenth chapter of John, where Jesus gave his last mes- sage to his disciples before his death. He mentioned the fact that at the end of his active ministry the life of Christ seemed to have ended in an utter fail- ure. Continuing he said that every fruit has for its purpose the repro- duction of its kind, and that every parent whether plant, or animal, or spiritual is supposed to multiply its kind on earth. He said, “A man may be a fruitless Christian and the life that has been given him may become ext1‘nct.” “It seems to me a much greaterc alamity to die spiritually than physically childless.” He said that it should be the ambition of every Christian to bear as much fruit as he possibly can, and asked what per cent of Christians have any power to bring others to Christ. Then he said, “Put that thing to yourself seriously, Are you bearing fruit?” In this connec- tion he said further, “You cannot bring anybody to Christ without the power of the spirit of God. Every soul is born into the kingdom of God because of the spiritual begetting of some other soul. In what might be called the second part of his talk Dr. Howerton quoted John 15: 4, “Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, exceptit abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in abiding in Him means the dwelling in Him as Lord and Saviour, “the Lamb of God that taketh away the sins of the world.” Illustrating from “Pil- grim’s Progress” he showed how the burden-—the consciousness of guilt— may be still present even after one knows Christ and that the release of it is the consciousness of the peace of Christ. “But he said, “it is possible to pick it up again even after it has been once relieved.” Continuing along this line he told of how no man can bear fruit as long as he has the bur- den of guilt of some sin hanging over him, and that a man can get rid of his burden any time by going to Christ and asking for forgiveness as many times as he becomes guilty. In couclusion he showed that the second part of abiding in Christ is a man’s union with Christ in his life, and that this can be brought about only by “daily and habitual prayer and the reading of His word.” He said that the same sermon of a preach- er will have power to bring others to Christ or not according as the preach- er is abiding or not abiding in Christ. The speaker said that personnal work does not take much effort when it is ‘sincere; the embarrassment and hesi- tation will probably do more than well planned words. He concluded with, “There is nothing that will test your own Christian life more than try- ing to bring some one else to Christ.” See McCrum’s Ad on P:ge 3. “T I (py Clothes”, COLLEGE men will al- ways find here snappy UEUTHES AND FURNISHINGS W. a L.

The war department has recently issued an orderauthorizing discharged S. A. T. C. men to keep the uniforms issued them. The uniforms may be worn provided the distinctive mark of one scarlet chevron is worn on the left arm between the elbow and the shoul- der. A paragraph of the order reads: “In cases where such uniform clothing has been restored to the government, the same or similar articles in kind and value as near as may be shall be supplied to such person upon affidavit setting forth his record of service since April 6, 1917, date and place of discharge and certifying that none of the articles applied for by him were furnished at the time of discharge, or if furnished have been returned to the government as required by the author- ity asmentioned above; this aflidavit to be made before an offlcer duly auth- orized to administer oaths, and sub- mitted to the adjutant general of the army for verification of record of ser- vice, date and place of discharge.
