OFF FOR YALE! Some by train,
some by bus, some by automobiles,
and some by Fords. And still more
by the ancient and royal tradition of
hitch-hiking—it’s an old Gawga cus
tom. But anyway, OFF FOR YALE!

Once again the charges of Harry
Mehre feel at home—-they’re back in
the Pullmans. It’s getting so that
every time a Georgia football player
glances at a Pullman, he uncon
sciously begins to hum “Home Sweet
Home.”

There’s nothing like tourning the
country to get a broad education,
and by the time the current foot
ball season comes to a climatic
close, our players may not be able
to boast that they received their ed
ucation abroad, but they certainly
fell heir to a broad education. All
of which is a broad statement.

It won’t be long before our pig
skin prowlers will be using road
maps and time tables for textbooks
in class. There's no danger of their
getting “train-sick,” it’s going to be
land-sickness that they’re going to
have to worry about.

If Georgia is behind in the last
quarter, Coach Mehre ought to put a
Fullman behind the Yale gotl posts,
and yell to the team, "C'mon, let’s
go home!”
Student Gatherings
Hear Three Talks
At Annual Retreat
Dr. P. D. Miller, Atlanta, educa
tional secretary of the Presbyterian
church in the South; Claude Nelson,
Atlanta, Y. M. C. A. field worker, and
Abit Nix, Athens attorney, were the
principal speakers at the annual re
treat of the Y. M. C. A. cabinet held
at the Athens Y. W. C. A. camp last
week-end.
Members of the Y. W. C. A. and
'. M. C. A. board of directors, uni
versity faculty members, and friends
were guests of the cabinet at the
closing exercises and supper. Miss
Jamie Jenkins, president of the Y.
W. C. A., and Miss Clara Slaton
were delegates to the conference
from the University Y. W. C. A.
“Masses of humanity floating aim
lessly through life, without a pur
pose, Is the world’s greatest trag
edy,” declared Dr. Miller. He urged
the students to choose their life’s
work and seek to make a success of
their vocation in the larger and
broader sense.
“We largely form our character
for life while in college, and whether
it will be good or bad depends on
the way the individual student
chooses,” said Mr. Nix.
The conference was presided over
by Southwood J. Morcock, Savannah,
president of the University Y. M.
C. A. E. L. Secrest, secretary of the
University Y. M. C. A., and Miss
Mary Banks, assistant secretary, had
general supervision.
Severe criticism has been cast in
the general direction of this column
by numerous of our fair (?) co-eds
in regard to the statement made last
week that the co-eds won’t have to
read the paper to find out who won!
the game now that the score board
has been installed. Of course they
don’t really need the score board to
find out which team won—they can
always ask the person next to them.

However, the criticism was prob
ably deserved, as a woman w'ould
reason. (They DO sometimes, real
ly!)
• * •
LO AND BEHOLD! Construction
work has now actually been started
on the long awaited “new Law build
ing.” PAGE RIPLEY!

“No matter how severe the de
pression becomes, no matter how
much prices fall, writing paper will
always remain stationery."

GirVs Glee Club to Have
Tryouts for Two Weeks
Tryouts for the Girls’ Glee club
will continue for two or three more
weeks, according to Hugh Hodgson,
professor of music at the university.
A great deal of talent has been re
vealed, but since a number of girls
have not yet had an opportunity to
make the club, the tryouts will con
tinue, declared Mr. Hodgson.
ster the campus topography with a
new law building and a new men’s
dormitory, let’s do something about
those so-called tennis courts. Try
ing to play tennis on those courts,
as they now are, is like trying to
play marbles in a ploughed field. It
’est ain’t bein’ done in the best uv
sassiety!

In their present condition, they're
about as useful as the street car
racks in Athens.

"Since I lent him my pen
it has never been the same!"
Don’t make yourself unpopular by
borrowing students’ pens. Unless the
pen is a Parker Duofold, your hand
is apt to foul the point, or change its
action. Don’t expose yourself.
Stop at the nearest pen counter
and pick the Parker Duofold that
fits your hand to a “T.” You’ll be
prepared then for any emergency—
even for lending—gracefully.
For no style of writing can foul, or
alter Parker's miracle Duofold point.
Still it writes as easily as you breathe
The Parker Pen Company
—with amazing Pressureless Touch!
And even the Parker Duofolds at
$5 have 22% to 69% more ink capac
ity than some pens of other makes
P riced 50% higher. Yet none has
arker’s stylish, balanced, stream
lined design—“America’s Shape
liest”—or Parker’s Invisible Filler,
or Patented Clip that lets the pen
set low and unexposed in the pocket.
The only guarantee you’ll need
for life is the name on the barrel—
“Geo. S. Parker—DUOFOLD.” »
