GLEE CLUB WILL
SPONSOR STUNT
NIGHT THURSDAY
A stunt night sponsored by the
University of Georgia Glee club will
be held Thursday night, November 8,
in the University chapel.
Among the stunts to be presented
in competition for a ten dollar prize
are a chalk talk, sleight-of-hand
tricks, vocal quartette, piano solo,
acrobatic stunts, and comedy dances.
Although the performance will be
staged primarily for the purpose of
selecting numbers for the Glee club
program, it will be made public for
the benefit of the student body. No
admission will be charged.
The rehearsal held on the night of
November 1 indicated that those
who attend the final performance will
see a good show.
Stunt night is a new thing at the
University, though it has been tried
with success at other colleges. It
is being inaugurated by Hugh Hodg
son for the purpose of arousing more
interest in the Georgia Glee club
among students. Mr. Hodgson ex
pects to get new material, as well
as ideas which may be used, for the
Glee club.
It is probable that Dan Tully, end-
man of the past three years and
1928 president of the club, will ap
pear as a part of the stunt night
program according to Prince Pres
ton, Statesboro, leader of the Glee
Club.

Robber of Frat
Houses Arrested
The negro responsible for the num
ber of robberies of fraternity houses
was captured while entering the Tau
Epsilon Phi last Sunday night.
Two of the boys coming home at
about eleven o’clock at night saw a
strange negro standing in the hall.
Before recovering from his fright
the negro was surrounded by a house
full of boys armed with clubs. Police
were called and the negro was
searched, but nothing was found on
him. He was questioned and gave
his name as Rufus Jackson.
A coat worn by the man was
recognized by one of the boys as
one stolen from Bennie Rothstein
last year. He was taken to Jail, and
city detective Segraves searched his
house, finding a number of fraternity
pins, suits, coats, and other articles
of clothing stolen from the Delta
Tau Delta house, the Tau Epsilon
Phi house, and the Alpha Epsilon
Pi house at the close of school last
year. Practically everything was re
covered.
A large number of the recovered
goods are still at police headquart
ers and have not been called for by
the owners.
Pandora Photos
Are Being Made
Photographs of individuals for the
1929 Pandora are being made this
week and next by White Photo
graphic company which awarded the
contract for such work by the Pan
dora staff, according to a statement
by Guy C. Hamilton, Jr., Dalton,
editor of the yearbook.
Due to the fact that the White
agency’s only office is in New York
City, it has been decided that the
photographer this year will make
only two trips, each of two week’s
duration. The second trip will be
made sometime in January.
The price for pictures will be $1.50
if made during the first stay of the
photographer on the campus. The
second trip, the price will be raised
to $2.00. Extra prints are fifty
cents each.
Interest Centers
Around Election
The national election of the Pres
ident of the "United States in which
race Alfred E. Smith democratic
nominee, and Herbert Hoover, re
publican choice, are the principals
will be the center of attraction next
Tuesday.
Interest in this race was increased
on the University campus by the or- \
ganization of an A1 Smith for Pres
ident club last spring. Although \
there was some opposition to dem- j
onstrations made by this club, a
Hoover club has not been organized
here.
Demonstrative of the interest
taken by the students in this elec
tion, a debate between two teams of
two students each on the relative
merits of the two leading candidates
was held in the co-ed chapel exer
cises Wednesday.
In a straw vote taken by the Red
and Black last year on all the pos
sible candidates for the presidency
A1 Smith lead by a great majority.
DEBATE WILL BE
HEED WEDNESDAY
The annual freshman impromptu
debate will be held in the University
of Georgia chapel next Wednesday

posed of five men each, representing
the Phi Kappa and Demosthenian
societies, will meet and debate on a
subject to be announced three min
utes before the debate begins.
Both Phi Kappa and Demosthen
ian held try-outs Wednesday night to
select the members to represent the
societies in the debate. Five men
and an alternate were selected by

AUBURN TIGERS IN
GAME SATURDAY
With a victory Saturday over How
ard, the first since 1926 the Auburn
Tigers play the Georgia Bulldogs
Saturday in Columbus. The Auburn
team has shown very little in the
past two years and the Georgia team
should achieve an easy victory.
It is not probable that the Bull
dog regular will play as long as
they have in the past three games.
In the Yale, Furman, and Tulane
conflicts several players played the
entire game but Saturday, they will
probaby not work as hard and get
a rest for tlielr coming games with
Florida, L. S. U., Alabama and Tech.
The Auburn game is the last let-up
In the schedule.
Rain during the early part of the
week hindered the Georgia team in
practicing but the effect of the bad
weather is not expected to hurt their
chances for a win over Auburn.
Joe Boland is still out of the line
up with his injured knee, but the
rest of the team is in fairly good
shape. Frisble’s leg and arm are
not well yet but he will be able to
play if he is needed.
Auburn’s only threat lies in its
aerial attack and from the success
of the Tillage alir game Georgia
may well prepare for this phase of
the Tiger attack.
Special trains ure being run to
Columbus for the game and a large
crowd of students are expected to
attend.
Both R. 0. T. C.
Units to Perform
