NUMBER« Sig ma Delta Chi BULLDOGS TO PLAY Elects Delegate 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.

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.

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.

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 At County Fair The Infantry unit of the R. O. T.
