RAUBER SCORED IN 1926 Coach Wade, Alabama, in Charge of All-Senior Players—Three Other Virginians Included. Captain “Horse” Tips and Babe Spotts, football players de luxe of the Generals yesterday received tele- grams from the coaches of the All- Southern Senior football team which will meet the All-Western Senior aggregation in California on Christ- mas, asking them if the faculty would permit them to make the trip Both men have secured the dcan’s permission to go. The All-Southern team will be composed entirely of seniors from the football teams of the Southern Conference. Coach Wade of Ala- bama has charge of the undertaking and on December 10, with the aid of two other Southern Conference‘ coaches, will select the team from the players who will be able to make the trip. The squad will leave Tuscaloosa, Alabama on December 17, allowing the men time to develop some team work. VVhether or not Spotts and Tips are selected, the fact that they were considered is a great honor in itself, both for them and the University. “Ty” Rauber, Captain ofthe 1926 Generals, made a similar trip last year and distinguislied himself by kicking a field goal for the only score of the Southerners. Tips first sprang into prominence by his great game against Princeton last year and was rewarded by honorable men- tion on the All—American and a posi- tion on Bill Roper’s All—Star teani made up of the best that opposed Princeton throughout the season. This year he has further tlistiiiguish-; ed himself by his great all around play in every game. He has been; awarded a place on the All-South‘ Atlantic for this year. It is a generally known fact that Babe Spotts is perhaps the greates't; all around athlete in the South‘ today. As an end on the varsity football team of Washington and; Lee for three years, his ability to catch passes from anywhere has. made him one of the greatest of-‘ fensive threats of the Southern Con- ference. He has also stepped into the limelight as a punter, and passer, making him a triple threat man. His mention comes as a fitting re- ward for his brilliant work in the‘ Generals’ lineup. Three other players from Virginia elevens were among the twenty-nine‘ men tentatively chosen. These were Captain Shep Mondy, V. M. I. cen- ter, Captain Bick Cardwell, Virginiai tackle, and Miles, V. P. I. tackle and: guard. l Coaches Wade, of Alabama, Mc-l; Gugin, of Vanderbilt, and Alexandcr,‘; of Georgia Tech, will be in charge? of the Southerners in their battle‘ against the Pacific stars, and thei squad will train at Tuscaloosa, Ala.,: beginning December 17. ; The wire received by Captain Tips} and Spotts read as follows: “Your name has been suggested; for the Senior All—Southern elcvcni to play in Los Angeles, December; 26. Please wire collect if you are; selected if you will report in Tus-i caloosa without fail morning of"; December 17. All expenses will be; paid.

This was due to the fact that many of the teams have con- tests on Thanksgiving day. In what was a very important game to both schools, the University of Maryland lost to Vanderbilt, 39 to 20. Vandy got away to an early lead and was never headed. Their long passes swept the Old Liners off their feet. Vanderbilt made 22 first downs to Maryland’s 19. Brilliant passing and powerful tlirusts by Young and Ward p.aved the way for North Carolina univer- sity to defeat Duke, 18 to 0. ‘he Blue Devils seemed overwhelmed, and their vaunted threats, Jankoski, Buie and Adams, were never given a chance to get started. Duke was on the defensive throughout the‘ gaine. ‘ Georgia Tech experienced one of the hardest games they have played this scasoii when they beat Ogle- thorpe, 19 to 7. The result was in doubt until the closing minutes of Kentucky had little trouble with defeating them 53 to 0. 0 Wrestlers Take Vacation Gver Thanksgiving The freshman and varsity wrestlers this Mathis has in week, but Coach , the town to workout in the gym as much as possible in order to keep in shape for next week’s practices.

The law provides that upon the :21ppl.‘()21Cl1 of any police or fire de- ipartment vehicle, the drivers of all ;vehiclc.-'3 shall drive to the curb im- mediately, and steer clear of all in- and remain there until It is also unlawful for any other than official cars to follow apparatus closer than one block or to park within the block where apparatus has stopped in answer to an alarm. Violations of this law endanger the lives of the vehicle drivers them- selves, well as of the firemen, and the fire department, backed by the town authorities, are asking the: ‘ Support For Smoking cooperation of everyone to aid in enforcing the law in all respects. j—~0 Faculty Confers Student and faeulty_ viewpoints were exchanged frankly and infor- mally when representatives of teach- ing and student organizations met for Wooster College’s first ses- sion of its new council. “Compuls- ory chapel attendance, dancing, cuts, compulsory class attendance, co-ed eating, vacations and faculty plays were egerly and enthusiastically talked over,” says the Wooster Voice. - Thanksgiving With Student Clubs K Morrison Hutcheson, 1902, Richmond, Va.; William A.

After a conference on the matter, the following decision was announced: “Only men who have been students at and attending Washington and Lee for more than two years shall attend the dance free. Men who have transferred from other institu- tions, regardless of their scholastic rating here, are not rated as juniors or better insofar as admission to the dance is concerned.” Those in charge of the dances also announced that the rules requiring cards for admission of all visitors would be strictly enforced this week, and those planning to have guests here during the holidays should get in touch with W. T. Owen at the Phi Kappa Sigma house immediately and secure their guests’ tickets. 0 Rule Asked at Dances Those attending the forth—coming dances are requested to cooperate with the new rule con- seinblies, but if students fail to com- as stated by the dance control authorities. The value of the ordinance has, been stressed in student body as- semblies, but it students fail to coin- ply with the requests, the Trustees threaten to pass more strenuous rules concerning this danger.

The fourth annual Turkey Day clash between Washington and Lee and the University of Florida will place 'L'ul11i)1‘1'L;W afternoon in Jacksonville. The Generals left for the scene of action yesterday morn- ing with an appropriate send-off by 200 students, who absented them- selves from classes for the occasion. The line-up of Washington and Lee ‘will contain every regular for the first time this month. Eber- tal-Le ;hardt is probably the only man on the squad who is still showing ef- fects of his injuries. This will be the last intercollegiate game for seveii of the eleven men who will start--Captaiii Tips, Spotts, Dorsey, fillllllulll, liowe, Fisher and Stearns playing their‘ last contest for Wash- ington and Lee. The playing of Tips and Spotts will receive added impetus because of the fact that have received much favorable comment for All—Southern berths. The Fl-o1'ida outfit will be handi- capped by the loss of Bowyer, who received a broken ankle while play- ing against Georgia. He was in line for a position on the All-Southern and his loss will be a severe jolt to the ’Gators. Captain Middlekaufi has been hobbling through practice with an injured knee received in the Alabama contest, and will be at a great disadvantage when his team faces the Generals tomorrow.

He has been trained in the best manner; he needs new to apply himself,” Professor Riddle continued. “Few students who graduated last will be earning $5,000, or $10,000 at the end of eight or ten years or more.

If a student has been sick, and has thereby used all of the cuts allowed him, and cuts again, such absences will be counted as in excess of the number allowed.” This was the statement made yester- day by the faculty committee on the regulation of absences. The rule also works in reverse <'-rdcr, so that if a student has taken his allotted number of cuts from class, and is then sick, the absences will be counted against him. Ex- ceptions, however, will be made in “exceptional cases”, which are to be d-;>tern1ined by the committee. 0__ Press dispatches to London say heads of all colleges and schools in Lisbon has been ordered arrested for closing schools early in belief that cannon salute to president was signal for start of revolution.

PROFESSIONAL INANITY EVERYONE seems to know more about the proper publishing of a newspaper than the people who are actually doing it. Perhaps the statement is a mite inclusive in its emphatic expression above, but it is certainly applicable on this campus. Only recently the point was proven by a case which seems to epitomize an attitude on the part of some University people who are so much in error that they become ultimately ridiculous. A few days ago a certain professor became involved in an occurrence which made an excellent news story. In the incident itself there was nothing derogatory or embarrassing to the professor. Yet when the Athenaeum prepared to publish the story it encountered an attitude almost inconceivable in a man of supposed mental maturity. After the facts had been as- sembled and amply verified the professor in question called the Athenaeum office. Without so much as an explanatory prelude the professor spewed forth a tirade of brilliant acrimony which ended with the statement, “If you publish anything whatsoever about me in any connection I will bring suit against the Athenaeum.” As everyone now knows the result was that the Athenaeum published a straightforward news account, adhering strictly to verified fact, apportioning its prominence in accord with its appeal to public interest, and even deviating slightly from proper news technique to offer an apologetic explanation of the incident. The attitude of this particular professor, expressive of the pathetic prejudices nursed by his ilk, is clearly vulnerable from two viewpoints. First from the standpoint of the publication of substantiated news for the reading public regardless of per- sonal censorial attempts; second, from the standpoint of the individual performance so unbecoming to one allegedly steeped in academic taste and dignity. Only one thing could be more ridiculous than for an individual to demand that a newspaper should not publish an ordinary news story involving his name. That would be for the news- paper to accede to his wishes. Certainly no person, no matter how slightly removed from the juvenile stage, will contend that a newspaper should regulate its news content in accord with the desires of individuals who have no direct connection with it. If a news organ should do this there would be scant cud for public mastication. The only proper procedure in event of personal objection to a truthful news story is frank and un- biased publication with prominence regulated by news value, so lucently demonstrated in this specific case. For the threat- ened law suit prolonged and hearty guffaws form the sane and natural response. There is no basis for legal action of any kind in the publication of verified events which have not the slightest shadow of libel. Criticism of this attitude from the personal viewpoint should run its normal course in ridicule. The mere facts of the case indicate the domination of a childish prejudice over an adult. It is little short of laughable that a person, who should be a model of matured sanity, should attempt to control a harmless detail in daily journalism. Certainly no one can assume a serious attitude towards this specific case in the face of the facts as presented. However, the serious import of this particular instance is in its general implication. The incident can be accepted as illustrative of an attitude on the part of certain University people which is far too prevalent. Most certainly the Athenaeum is a University function under administrative control, and sub- ject to the superiority of the administration, but this in no wise indicates a subservience to lesser individuals who have no other connection other than that of a reader. It seems that when- ever an individual acquires authority ‘in a classroom or depart- ment he ensconces himself in his sanctuary, looks down at a less fortunate world, and automatically assumes the role of supreme dictator. Then he begins to wander far afield. His first act is to transfer his authority from his chosen field of learning to other scenes. For instance he jumps from astronomy to journalism. Casting about for something tangible upon which to exercise his mythical and assumed prerogative he fastens it upon the newspapers. He would be guardian of the public’s reading matter, especially in cases where it concerns himself. Then his dictatorial attitude knows no bounds. It eventuates in efforts to prohibit the publication of legitimate and harmless news. The sooner this type of self-appointed dictator realizes that his authority is imaginary, impossible, and of no consequence,’ then the better for all concerned. Thus the Athenaeum will persevere in its efforts to publish all news stories, based on verified fact, regardless of the dignitaries they involve.—— ATHENAEUM. n SOME s.IY HE IS ARL SANDBURG “is classed by some as an immoral poet”; the Nebraska University literary magazine, the Prairie Schooner, discussed Carl Sandburg’s poetry, therefore . . . . . That’s a Nebraska student's complaint against the magazine. The Nebraskan which received the complaint, failed to observe in the objectionable magazine any “lack of common decency.” It even went so far as to defend the Prairie Schooner in its attempt to produce articles and critiques of merit. All of which means that probably there will be a sell-out of the whole issue. Az'n’t It a Grand and Glorious Feelin ’?
