of Went Virginia loam Wednesday
niglil in Phi Kappa hall in a non*
derision debate on the question, Re
solved: That This House Deplores
the Rise of Fascism.
Pratt Adams, Savannah, and Lynne
nrannen, Athens, upheld the nega-
tlve for Georgia against Rill Farley
and Pete Itoomschleider for West
Virginia.
Aims of Fnsrisiii
Military Maestro and Torch Singer
"Nationalism and imperialism,
the two aims of Fascism, are the big
gest causes of modern war,” said
Farley. "Upton Sinclair calls Fas
cism capitalism plus murder. Fas
cism Is a corporate state, with a sin-
ale political party, under a strong
spirit of nationalism, ruling the coun
try."
"Italy has come to the fore under
Fascism. A strong government has
brought (lie country up from the
depths of despair,” said Itrannen
" ‘Action, not words' is Mussolini’s
motto. Mussolini's supreme power
Is necessary for tile good of Italy.”
''Fuscism is not a stable form of
government. When it breaks down,
a terrible war will follow,” predict
ed Itoomschleider. "Peace Is de
pendent on the life of the dlctntor.
The government is controlled by in
dustrialists and landed proprietors.
Fascism is the Inst stand of capital
ism against socialism."
FuscLsiii Helps Italy
“I do not say that Fascism would
work In this country, hut It lias ac
complished what Italy needed.” said
Pratt Adams. "The test of a good
government Is whether It gives Its
people the best social advantages, the
host way of life. Fascism Is the
lies! way of life for Italy today.”
"Efficiency is no argument for
anything," retorted Itoomschleider.
The West Virginia debaters came
here from (lainesville, Flu., where
they debated the University of Flor

Tenn., to metft the University of

Tlie A. O. W. (Advanced Officers’
Week to you) of 1935 will end to
night In a blaze of glory when the
cream of the University R. O. T. C.
unit begins its big "putsch" at 11:00
p. m. under the sturdy beams of old
Woodruff.
The Advanced Officers appear to
lie advanced in more ways than one.
During the past week they have
shown how far they are advanced
in the field of high finance.
In answer to the queries of
" Wheielnellcanlgetaninvltationtothe-
mllltaryball," the A. O.’s canouver-
ed nobly into position by placing in
vitations on the market at depres
sion prices of $1.50 per invite.
High finance entered here. The
A. O.'s calculated that out of three
dollars for two Invitations, they
could get two corsage* and still have
one rock left for -well, that depends
on the individual.
One future J. P. Morgan succeed
ed In high-pressuring his invites at
$2.00 per. Immediately, the remain
ing A. O's. became capitalistic, and
the market rose tifty cents per invite.
Tlie military department, which by
now should be very adept at making
faces, frowns upon the selling of in
vitations. For the past week that
honorable department has Just about
twisted its face beyond recognition.
The miltary department, however,
should not be blamed for the ways
in which tlie invitations are Issued.
Little did they dream that when they
were electing officers they would un
cover financial geniuses in the guise
of innocent college boys. The mer
cenary gleam in the eyes of these
money magnates was not noticed by
the unsuspecting military depart
ment. After two or three years of
this tlie military department has be
come somewhat disillusioned about
college boys. They have even an
nounced that they frown with dis
favor upon the practice of exchang
ing invitations for legal tender.
A few A. O's. issued their invita
tions without charge, disdainfully
refusing the proffered greenbacks of
astonished friends.
Advanced Officers’ Week, always
the week preceding the Big Affair,
can be recognized by observing the
self-satisfied looks on the faces of
those officers who received a good
price for their invites, the disgust
ed looks of those who sold while the
market was low, and the blank ex
pressions of doubt on faces of those
who gave their invitations without
charge and are wondering whether
they should get a pat on the back
or a kick in the pants. Who shall |
judge the nctions of these three
classes of students, no one knows.
The present rule seems to be “let
your conscience be your guide—but
don't let it lead you off the right
track.”
What will be the fate of the A. O.
W. of the future can only be re
vealed by time. Will new financial
geniuses rise to power or will all
elements of finance be removed?
Only time will tell!
