Barnett, Howe, and Stearns Possible 25 to 0 Win— Line Strong White, Make Washington and Lee’s versatile set of backs in White, Barnett, Howe and Stearns together with a power- ful line outclassed the University of Kentucky's football team at Lex- ington Saturday, winning the game 25 to 0. The Kentucky team fought gamely during the first half hold- ing the Generals to six points. In the second half, the passes of Wash- ington and Lee——Howe to Spotts-— worked so well that the Herron—— coached charges gathered nineteen more markers. A crowd of 7,500 was on hand when the game started. The Washington and Lee team did, not reach Lexington until Saturday morning but was the first to appear on the field. Both teams wore dark jerseys. The two teams swayed back and forth during the first quarter. In the second the powerful plunges of Gene White, and some neat team- work, took the sphcre from the Washington and Lee 42-yard line to a touchdown. White counted more than five yards on every try. Barnett Stars After Stearns intercepted Jenkins’ pass in the first part of the third quarter, Howe snatched off fifteen yards. Barnett, substituting for White, added six more. Then White added nine yards, and took the ball over in three splendid line bucks.; A 35-yard pass to Spotts from Howe‘ accounted for the Generals’ third: talley. 1 In the fourth quarter Barnett really shone. The Generals got the’ ball on the Kentucky 25-yard line.‘ A forward pass, Barnett to Spotts, netted '7 yards. Barnett hit Ken- tucky’s center for 15 yards making it first down on the Kentucky 53-yard line. Stearns then backed into the line to go over for the final touch- down. Portwood Flashes Portwood, weighing ony 144 pound was Kentucky’s star. He swished about the field for most of the Ken- tucky’s gains behind a line that was quite formidable. The remainder of the backs, however, could not pene- trate the Generals’s defense. Jenkins did get through for a few small advantages. First Quarter The Cats made a triple pass which netted 20 yards. They were halted on their first march down the field and forced to punt to the General’s 8-yard line. Stearns made a few yards and Spotts punted 50 yards. An exchange of punts and some good work by Portwood placed the ball on W. and Us 28-yard line. The Generals held and took the ball on their 31-yard line. Second Quarter White ploughed to the 49-yard line. Howe and White ran the ball to the 29-yard marker. Barcley made three yards, White and Howe made it first down on the Kentucky 2-yard line. White took it over in two trys. The try goal was blocked. Kentucky received the kick and Portwood went 15 yards to the Kentucky 35 yard line. Portwood and Jenkins placed the ball on the W. and L. 16-yard line and looked threatening. Tips broke through and tackled Miller behind his line and the ball went over. Spotts punted out of danger. A triple pass, Miller , to Jenkins, to Ellis was good for 20 yards to the W. andL. 23-yard line, Half. Third Quarter Barnett went in at fullback. W. and L. intercepted a pass and got the ball on ts 47-yard line. Barnett took it to the Kentucky 22-yard line after a series of plunges and end runs. Howe made it first down on the 10-yard line. Stearns hit the line for three and Howe went over. Spotts passed for the extra point. A forward pass from Howe to Spotts was good for 46 yards. Spotts leaped high in the air grabbed the ball and dashed for a goal un1nol- ested. Tips placekicked the extra point. Fourth Quarter W. and L. got the ball, after an exchange, on the Kentucky 25-yard line. A forward pass, Barnett to Spotts, netted yards. Barnett took the ball to the five yard line and Stearns backed over for the final goal. ‘fling-tum {H11 BY THE STUDENTS, FOR THE UNIVERSITY.

Next Year The Washington and Lee-Princeton fray has been given a major place on the Tigers’ schedule for next year. November 10 in Palmer stadium. It is hoped that this game can be so arranged that it will take place be- tween the Virginia and V. P. I. battles. The results of the game between these two schools in the past three years have created a respect in the New Jersey camp for the ability of the fighting Generals to give them a real battle. In these last three games the Generals have tied one and lost two, both by very close margins. After renewing relations in 1925, W. and L. held the Tigers to a 15-6 score. The second game resulted in a 7-7 tie and a near vic-I tory for Coach Herron’s warriors. It was in this game that Rauber and Spotts threw terror into the Orange and Black supporters. All know only too well the result of the battle this year. However the Gen- erals deserve the greatest credit for holding the strongest team the Tigers have had in years to such a low score. ___._()~___ Old Men Failing To “Send Up” Frosh Gross freshness and not speaking to old men are the chief causes of the downfall of freshmen, according to officials of the Vigilance commit- tee. other causes. The game will take place‘ ,___.. and stories of personalities. His yarns about actual experiences, his “leaving a brilliant future behind” when he migrated from Virginia, and his “I ain’t dead” story kept his audience in laughter. A review of the noted statemen, those who have since died, and a list of those who have taken their places, “unkown as they are” was given by Mr. Essary. The speaker termed Charles A Dawes, vice-presi- dent, as one of the strongest men in politics today. Mr. Essary’s talk at the special assembly this morning has been termed “one of the best” that we have had in recent times. His tales of “Covering Washington,” the hu- man bits that he brought in, called for rolls of laughter. Bringing a newspaperman’s de- scription of the Nation’s capital, Mr. Essary did not do the conventional —recite statistics concerning build- ings and streets—but illustrated Washington by the personalities that make up the city. But it was in his tales of actual contacts with “Big Men” that the speaker scored best with his audi- ence. His story of Mr. Taft, Bishop Hendrick, and Archibishop Ireland, and whether the Wilson administra- tion was “Catholic to the core” or was it a “Protestant administration” was one of Mr. Essary’s choicest bits. At 2 o’clock today Mr. Essary was initiated into Pi Delta Epsilon, na- tional honorary journalisitc fraern- ity, at the journalism department “headquarters in Washington college. Following the assembly Mr. Es- sary was the guest of the Journalism department at a luncheon given at the Lee hotel to fifty invited guests ;and students of journalism. 0 lDl'. Brown Addresses 1 Freshmen Thursday . A talk by Dr. W. M. Brown, head of the department of Educational Psycholgy, entitled “How to choose a life-work” featured the freshman meeting held in Lee chapel on the lnight of October 20. l Dr. Brown based his speech on three main topics. First, “Choose your life-work on the basis of what the world needs”; second “Choose likewise on the basis of your ability ,to meet the world’s needs”; and ii third, “Choose only that line of work, ‘which will test and try you, and at :_the same time, will be one into iboundless enthusiasm.” ed to sign the bulletins that will be posted in the Corner the first of the week.

In addition to the football team, the cross country team, which meets Maryland at the time of the game, will be carried. The band, which is also making the trip, will be on the special, making a total of about forty men who will be carried by the athletic This will help to increase the number neces- association. sary for the train, and only about 100 more men will be needed. By carrying their men on the special train the athletic association is probably making it possible for the train to be secured if the num- ber of students signing up falls slightly short of the required num- ber. The spirit of the game will be somewhat increased by the fact that the football team, the cross country team, and the band will all be on the same train. Interest in the Maryland game is running high, and enthusiasm for the trip to Washington is prevailing on the campus. The special will reach the Capital in plenty of time for those on it to see a show Friday night, and will not leave until late Saturday night, or possibly Sunday morning. This will give almost two full days in Washington. The Red Star Bus line has offered to carry the students from the Union Station, or from a designated point in the city, to College Park and return for one dollar. This will eliminate the necessity of riding the trolleys or a taxi. This offer was made to the athletic association here when it was learned that a special train would probably be run. The Old Liners are outstanding contenders for conference honors in the section, and much interest is being shown in their game with the Generals. It is understood that a record crowd is expected to witness the game at College Park, and that arrangements are being made to imake the day and the game one of ‘the biggest since the two institutions Very few men are sent up for} which you can throw yourself withjhave been meeting on the football 1 field. 33% Names and religious preferences of the next three presidents of the United States may be published ‘soon. under the by-line of J. Fred Essary, Washington of the Baltimore Sun, if Mr. Essary obeys instructions contained in a telegram which interrupted the Department of I Journalism luncheon here today. Mr. Essary had just concluded his address on “Making a Reporter” be- fore fifty students and guests of the department at the Lee hotel this: afternoon when a messenger deliv- ered the following wire to Prof. H. M. Thompson, Lexington correspond-I ent of the Sun: ? “H. M. Thompson: Understandl you have our Mr. Essary in Lexing-I ton instead of in Washington wherel we put him. See him and rush names of next three presidents. Mr. Essary is good at that sort of thing Stop. correspondent Managing Editor” Puzzled, Mr. Thompson stopped Prof. R. B. Ellard, head of the de- partment of Journalism, who was speaking and showed him the mess- age. Just as puzzled: Professor Ellard determined to lay the curious assign- ment before the guest of honor and assembled diners. “I am afraid this matter will have to be taken up before the luncheon is completely over,” Mr. Ellard said, plainly irritated at the interruption. “Mr. Thompson, Lexington corres- pondent of the Baltimore Sun, has just received the following request for news from his managing editor,” Then Mr. Ellard read the telegram. “Now we undertake here at Wash- ington and Lee,” he explained, “to teach only the fundamentals of re- porting. We talk about prophetic journalism—even bring live speci- mens of successful prophets here to be seen—but we cannot do it our- selves. Some of us might list the first three presidents; nearly all of us might list the last three; but for the next three, we’ll have to turn to our guest and speaker, Mr. Essary.” The message was then delivered to the Sun’s Washington writer. At this point, newsboys burst into the dining hall with the Ring-tum Phi, which, by some strange journ- alistic enterprise, contained this story which you have just read. It is understood even that Mr. Ellard himself wrote the alleged telegram and that the request for presidential anticipation is to be en- shrined in the limbo of luncheon stunts. In introducing Mr. Ellard said: “This occasion on which one of the rays of the Baltimore Sun is about to shine in Lexington recalls the time in 1869 when the New York Sun sent a reporter, Mr. Tweed, to Lexington to discover what General Lee was doing with a southern col- lege in the heart of the old Con- federacy, and what he really intend- ed to do with his “Press Scholar- ships” recently announced by which the first collegiate instruction in Journalism every known in the world was begun. Now the Baltimore Sun’s representative has kindly come on our invitation where he may see what a man named Smith is doing with a university bearing the names of both Washington and Lee.” OUR Niaw cues Editorial .

Wilcox Essary, Mr. mam: oeegaose Writer For-etells Shakeup--Proves Three Years Later How Mr. Essary prophesied in 1913 the civil service shakeup which didn’t take place till 1919 is told in his book, “Covering Washington,” recently adopted as a required reading in the Depart- ment of Journalism. The information was from an unquestioned source and was played heavily in the Balitmore Sun. But when month after month, then year after year went by without any shakeup consider- able “kidding” fell to the lot of the prophet, who is ever without honor in the environs of his future-reading. Then quietly the thing occured ———accudately following the story, detail for detail, even to the name of the woman who was appoint- ed to replace a badly shaken commissioner. If you see it in the Sun its so, “Mr. Essay explained today, “even if you have to wait six years for the actual proof!” Faculty Expected To Decide Football Holidays _ Monday The Executive committee of the Student Body at its meeting yester- day afternoon decided to submit to the approval of the Faculty this morning a petition for University holidays to be had on the days of both the Virginia and V. P. I. foot- ball games. This matter will prob- ably come before the Executive com- mittee of the Faculty for action at its regular meeting Monday, October 24. The Virginia-Washington and Lee football game, which this year is held in Lexington, will be a gala day for Lexington in conjunction with the V. M. I.-North Carolina [game to be held here in the morn- ing. The granting of a holiday for November 5 will enable students to witness that engagement which is held in the morning. This year’s V. P. I. game, due to a departure from the old arrange- ment of holding it in Lynchburg, is under a home and home game ar- rangement. The prospect of a holi- day on this date will enable the cus- tomary cheering section of the Student Body to accompany the team to Blacksburg. m<_0.__1 Twelve Appointed On Ring-tum Phi Editorial Staff Twelve new men, chosen from the galaxy of freshmen and sophomores who reported at the opening of school, have been selected for mem- bership on the Ring-tum Phi editor- ial staff as a result of try-outs which have been in progress for the past three weeks. The names of the can- didates picked appears elsewhere in this issue. The trails were in charge of Davis Reed, one of the senior mem- bers of the editorial staff, and the work was on a strictly competitive basis throughout. Assignments were given the men the same as is done with the regular veteran reporters, and assignments to cover stories of varying nature were given each man in an effort to test his abilities along all lines of writing. Sports tryouts were worked under the same sys- tem, the men being given an oppor- tunity to try out for this particular department if they preferred it, and four of the twelve selected have been assigned to the sports staff for reg- ular work in the future.

ADMISSION TO THE CHAPEL HETHER or not the admission charge to the chapel is an imperative need in order to take care of the expenses of maintenance and supervision required by that shrine, students here are openly opposed to the idea as broached several times within the past year by those in charge of its administration. It is realized that such a building cannot be properly kept up and its treasurer given the proper care without entertailing‘ some expenses, but the preceedure of charging admission from everybody entering its doors will not met with favor. Being as it is “The Shrine of the South”, it should be open to all who wish to inspect it and gain inspiration form its quietude and reveries; and any effort to make visitors pay will doubtless be met with the charge of “commercialization.” -€'._>“‘ SIIlOk€l"S don’t change with the Iraffe s'gnaIs A ' ~ 1 One of the major objections of tourists and visitors to the 9 Changlng t0 Chestetfieldo numerous shrines of the north, and to natural wonders and othe similar places of interest throughout the country is the fact that and admission charge, often exorifitant in view of the expenses involved must be paid before entering. In cases where half a doz- en or more persons make up a single party, which is often the case where tourists are covering this historic section of the country, the tax of even a small admission charge such as is proposed would amount to a significant amount, and many travelling in cars throughout the South are unable to afford“ such a charge, and at the same time are among the class most able to appreciate the shrine and the memories which it awakens. . . . but watch how other smokers a This action of the trustees of the university at their meeting last week in appointing a committee to confer with the U. D. C. committee in charge of the chapel is a laudable one, and it is hoped that some understanding can be reached whereby the status quo can be maintained, and that the plan to charge ad- mission to the chapel will be definitely tabled and allowed to die the natural death which it deserves. Lexington’s Two Blai:k Crows Give Explanation of General’s Defeat By Bill Hill Among the spectators at the re- cent Washington and Lee versus Princeton football game were Lex- ington’s own “Two Black Crows”. Like the boys, they saw the game, had a big time in New York and now are back in twon. They got together the other day with the fol- lowing result: 1st B. C. “Whut football contes?” “That there contest ‘tween Wash- in’ton Lee an’ Prinzdon last Sat’- day.” “Well, whut uv it?” “I jus’ want yo’ ‘opinion, thassal. Whut made them Prinzdon guys win?” “Oh, I dunno, I heard one 0’ them Prinzdon simplethizers say that they call wun 0’ their halfbacks “Mouse” cuz he’s so swif’ an’ nimble, Mebbe that’s thuh reason—but whut dif- funce duz it make anyway?” “Well, yo’ sho oughat have some intrest. Why, man, I wuz a real optomist bout that there game. I offered to bet anybuddy with ten tuh one odds on that there game and I didden care whut side I bet on. I heard a diffunt explanashn too.

You am jus’ a Prinzdon simplethizer. Yo’ am sho crazy, cuz I wouldn’ like that old Prinzdon ven if it wuz good.” “I‘d ruther hear no mo’ about it.” “Well, whut did yo’ alls do after thuh game?” “Oh, I wuz tired.” “Tired 0’ whut?” em 7 _ :‘|”.-{'_;;'M,YEIi‘S roarxcco co.

Outsiders Named Univ Presidents Twenty-one college and university presidents, not one promoted from the faculty or chosen from the state, were elected in 1927, says the Jour- nal of Education. None of the new presidents were subject specialists, or engaged in political or business careers. Only one was engaged in religious work .The selections repres- ent all sections of the country. While the Journal suggests that this range of selection is indicative of an im- portant underlying movement, it does not offer an explanation.

PAGE FOUR THE RING-TUM PHI c:........... M... Defeats Freshmen , In Close Contest} In a close battle the football team of the school of commerce defeated the warriors of the class of ’31 6 to 2 on Wilson field Friday. The commerce men staged a neat come- back in the second half to overcome the freshman lead. The freshmen scored in the first half when Iban was thrown behind his own goal for a safety. 3. The commerce team led by Frank- lin, flashy quarter, opened up a brilliant passing attack in the final period, which resulted in a touch- down and victory. The kick for extra point was wide. Coach Eddie Parks Davis held his first string men out to keep them in shape for the game with S. M. A. today. Substitutions and time outs were numerous on both teams. Quite a number of freshmen and old men were in the stands or on the track, and a number of law students were in evidence to scout the commerce crew, whom they meet in the near future. 0______ Pan-White F riars. Not To Have Public l l Shines This Year Howard Sutton, president of Whitel Friars, announced that the annual; “shines” of both the White Friars‘ and Pan “goats” will be limited this year. This action has been taken, due to a letter from the Faculty which stated that no public parade,| such as took place at the Maryland[ game last year, will be allowed this’ year. The displeasure of the faculty was caused by the nature of the former parade. It is expected that a banquet will take the place of this horse-play. The usual cuckooing and time-tell- ing in front of Washington College, however, will take place as soon as the hats arrive. These are expected at the beginning of next week. _?_0_..__ x Ducats For Virginia Game Selling Fast; Big Crowd Expected Tickets for the Virginia game, November 5, went on sale last Mon- day under the direction of Graduate Manager R. A. Smith. Thus far there has been no check-up on the sale, but it is safe to assume that the total sales this year will greatly outnumber those of any previous years. The erection of new tempor- ary stands assures the vistors ample accommodations. Tickets for the game can be se- cured at the following places: Complimentary—Faculty ~— Regis- trar’s Office. Complimentary—Town and V. M. I.—Graduate Manager’s Office. Studcnts#Co—op. Alumni and others — Graduate Manager, Corner, McCrum’s. 0 Faculty To Vote O-n Class Schedule Whether the University will begin classes at 8:30 or 9:00 o’clock next year will be decided by vote at the next faculty meeting to be held November 7. The result can hardly be predicted, but it is known that some of the most influential profes- sors favor the change. At the last faculty meeting held Monday the question was argued Some are advo-‘ eating the change in order to makel the college schedule correspond more, closely to life in the business world. Others, more conservative, believe in letting well enough alone. PROGRAM NEW & LYRIC THEATRES © 1927, R. J. Reynolds Tobacco Company, Winston-Salem, N C.
