Because of the sudden death this

institution he remained Juntil his
death.

tion:

Education by Death; and
Whereas, he was once dean of the
department of physics at the Univer
sity of Georgia; and
Whereas, he was scholarly and in
spiring in his chosen field, influen
tial and popular among both faculty
and students; and
Whereas, he organized the Sphinx
club, the highest honorary club at
the University of Georgia; and
Whereas, his name was the first
enrolled on the records of the club:
Be it Resolved, That the Sphinx
dub express by this resolution its
loss at the death of its esteemed
member, and express its sympathy
to the bereaved family, the friends,
and the University of North Carolina.
Be it Resolved Further, That a
copy of this resolution be sent to the
family, the faculty of the University
of North Carolina, the faculty of
the University of Georgia, and to the
tiles of the Sphinx club.
Great Send-Off
Given Bulldogs
By Enthusiasts
The send off the student body
gave the Georgia Bulldogs Wednes
day night as they departed for New
Haven was even greater than the
welcome accorded them last year as
they returned with the first victory I
over the Bulldogs of the East. Last j
year the same Bulldogs, came from
the north with the greatest victory
in the history of the school and
were given a glorious welcome by
the student body. But the milling,
cheering throng that overcrowded
the depot as the team prepared for
departure, and the spirit-mad crowd
which overflowed at the chapel and
made a bedlam of the city streets
as they paraded to the Seaboard
station, made that memorable Tues
day of last October a mere land
mark in the march of the Bulldogs

PICTURES TO BE
TAKEN SOON FOR
1920 PANDORA
Photographic work on the 1929
Pandora will begin at the University
on October 21, according to present
plans, Guy Hamilton, editor, an
nounces. Two trips will be made by
the photographer, the first coming
this month and lasting into Novem
ber, and a second trip coming in
January. As pictures will have to
be sent to New York for developing
and retouching, work must be com
pleted at a much earlier date than
was done last year, Hamilton states.
Plans for an annual which will
compare favorably with any pub
lished at the University or in the
South hitherto are being made by
the staff. The theme of the vol
ume will be built upon the great
alumni of the University who at
tended school here in former days
and who have become famous
throughout the South. Each di
vision of the book will be dedicated
to a particular alumni. The division
page will be a double one, a portrait
of the man in black and white oils
being on the right hand side, and a
four color process picture of him en
gaging in his chief activity will be
placed upon the left hand page.
Alexander H. Stephens, Crawford
W. Long, Joseph LeConte, Robert
Toombs. Henry Timrod, John B.
Gordon, Henry W. Grady, and Chan
cellor Walter B. Hill will be the
dedicatees.
The opening pages of the book
will be in four color process pic
tures, showing the entrance of the
student into the University today, his
college life, and graduation. The re
mainder of the opening pages will
depict the student following in the
footsteps of past great men, and
rising to high positions in the world
of science, politics, and business after
graduation.
Subdivision pages, which have
been in black and white hitherto,
will be In two color inks, according
to the editor. There will be twenty

Georgia’s Band
Prospects Are
Good This Year
With approximately 50 new mem
bers trying-out, promises for an ex
ceptionally good band at the Uni
versity this year are very bright,
states Professor Dottery, director of
the band at the Univerity.
Due to the fact that so many of
the past years members were lost by
graduation it has been necessary to
hold extra band practices on other
days besides the regular scheduled
practice. At these practices a large
number have been reporting although
attendance was not compulsory.
Several new movements are being
perfected this year and will be shown
to the students at the football games
the rest of the season.

The Blackfriars dramatic club at
the University elected the following
girls to membership at the girls'

Mr. and Mrs. Roosevelt Walker and
Mr. Duncan Burnett. Mr. Walker Is
a professor in the English depart
ment at the University and Mra.

friars. Mr. Burnett is librarian.
Following the try-outs plans were

TEAM LEAVES IN
GOOD SHAPE FOR
GAME WITH VALE
The Atlanta Special pulled out of
Athens Wednesday* with Georgia’s
hopes of a second victory over Yale
on board. After a month of prac
tice the Bulldogs are in the best
shape of the yenr for the game with
the Blue.
The team, Coach Mehre, Coach
Crowley, Coach Chirk Shiver, their
wives, Dean Sanford, and Managers
Craig Barrow and Doug Faegin are
making the trip. The conches have
not stated definitely that they ex
pect to win but it Is generally con
ceded that Georgia has a fairly good
chance of mnking it two straight
over Yale.
Strenuous work-outs have been
given the team all week and they
have been going through their paces
well. Tuesday the varsity was put-
through a long scrimmuge and they
looked as good as they have at any
time this year. They gave the fresh
man one fast afternoon. This only
shows that they are preparing for
Yale with real determination. Roy
Jacobson got in his first scrimmage
since his injury that afternoon and
It seemed to give him little trouble.
The team will arrive in New
Haven In time to get a work-out Fri
day In the Yale Bowl. It is a signal
honor that the Georgia team prac
tices there for no other team in the
country ever works out there. Even
Yale uses another field for practice.
With every detail taken care of
and everything In readiness for the
big affair there is nothing to do but
wait and see Just how good this
year’s team Is. The Yale game will
bring out Georgia’s strength as well
as Its weaknesses. From tackle to
tuckle the line is stronger than it
was last year. Boland has one more
year of experience to his Jcredit,
Jacobson will be better this year, and
Lautzenhiser and Frisbee should be
