Yesterday (By Barthur Risbane) Is Barthur’s face red? Everyone was inquiring who Julius Seize-her was, and no one seemed care who Bartliur was! (Isn’t it remark able that people can appreciate real wit!) i The Men’s Glee Club is getting along fairly well with its latest ef fort, being an attempt to sing “Si lent Night, Holy Night” in its Ger man counterpart of “Stille Nacht, Heilige Nacht.” Did you know that Professor Hart has heavy work on South Street? Well, yes and no, but mostly yes. That a certain male student here is having martial conflicts? That Rabbi Hitler seems to have won the affection of the entire girls’ dormitory—(Hen-Roost.) ? That Mr. Slrozier and Mr. Wat son, being Alumni of Emory, al ways salute when a Coca-Cola truck passes? That A. J. Broom, big butter and egg man, is really a farmer? At least, one of our guesses is right. That Professor Roberts was ask ed as much as six rocks for four ice cream cones in Russia? Here’s hoping that they don’t get that high in this country—grandchil dren, you know. That the lights were flashed on Mother Ward when time for her diate was up the other night? This is the sign that all males must leave, and they gave Mother Ward a little dose of her medicine. 'T' v ‘t+ i]>c> Eighti Aiuendjiieni. has at last been repealed. Now, how about a change in the college niles? We musn’t be obsolete. That some people have a hard time in remembering Kress Entre kin’s name. They call his “Wool worth,” “Siivers,’ “Fisher’s,’’ and even think he’s a real ten cent ar ticle. Nicht wahr? That Henry J. Hoggs heart is all a flutter, being filled with thoughts of Angeline Grifin. Here’s to you, Henry, but LaGrange stands migh ty well. That the boggy man has broken up Robert Veal and Cassie Grif fin? Too bad And thehy even had their furniture selected. That Miss St. Clair reminds Bar. thur of a litte child, pleased with a stick of candy? That Barthur has! shot his load. Auf Wiedersehn, meinegute Fre unde. That Fielding Towns was found guilty in Rat Court of conduct un becoming co a Holy Roller preach er? The verdict was based on cir cumstantial evidence. Wimpy Upchurch is the campus lady killer. To date he has broken the hearts of four of our co-eds, and two Carrollton Hi gals!. The co-eds are Myrtice Clark, Eleanor Morris (My, but Wimpy must be good looking to rate her), Margie Trice and Hazel Robinson. His motto seems to be: “Find ’em, fool ’em, try ’em, forget ’em.” Supreme moment. John Mandeville gives Ossie McLarty a box of candy at the frolic. Good candy, Ossie?

This organization as yet is very young at our college and offi cers have not even been elected. In terest lilas been centered on the play, “The Importance of Being Earnest,’’ which will be presented November the twenty-fourth in the college auditorium. Only the cast for this play comprise the club members. No definite plans have been made as to how other mem bers will be selected. According to the large number of previous try outs there are many students at W.G.C. interested in dramatics. The cast chosen for the first play is a very talented group. It was indeed an honor to be selected for membership since only the ten necessary for the play were chos en from approximately one hun dred students "who tried out. It is the club’s sincere hope that this presentation will be a success since it is the first play to be giv en by the college Dramatic Club. “The Play’s the thing,” said the wise Shakespeare in the long ago. But in the course of time this pow erful method of. Improving the n<i °- ple has been utilized for amuse ment entirely. The stage with its endless triangles has failed to live up to its highest possibilities. Though the schools must be estab lished a standard of taste which the stage will meet. To every humian being has the dramatic in stinct been given in greater or less measure, and this instinct is not satisfied by merely being a by stander and onlooker. From dramatics one gains: train ing in correct standing, sitting and moving, ability to subordinate ones self to the picture, strong incentive for close observations, betterment of English, pleasure, real value in ( Continued on page 4) Miss Smith Speaks At H. E. Meeting Miss Bernice Smith, a former student of Miss Callaway, graduate of the Georgia State College of Agriculture, now of the Georgia Power Company, spoke to the Home Economics Class October 24, on good lighting in the home. She used a lantern-slide to illus trate the picture of poorly and well-lighted homes, explaining the adantages of good lighting. Your eyes are the most . precious organ you have,” Miss Smith said, and told us how to protect them. Poor lighting causes head aches, increases nervousness, indigestion, defective vision, and increases en ergy consumption of the body; therefore, it i s important for stu dents to have properly lighted rooms for study. Seventy-five to eighty per* cent of all knowledge comes through the eyes, so it is necessary to protect them. “Not oniy do good lights in the homo protect the eye, but they al so add beauty -and attractiveness to it,” Miss Smith said. The world has moved indoors, and most of our yvork is done about fourteen inches from our eyes—the indirect method usually being the light used.

Holidays Planned For Thanksgiving In a call meeting, on Wednesday afternoon, voted to grant holidays for Thanksgiving from Wednesday through Friday, and classes to re sume Monday. This gives the stu dent body five days to visit loved ones and new scenery. The student body, through this medium, wishes to thank President Ingram and the members of the faculty for their prompt and pleas ing action. When this matter was suggested by President Ingram, in chapel on Tuesday, there wasn’t a single dis senting vote among the student body, and faculty members began lamenting the prospects of the usual “Monday after holiday.” HASTSPEEDBILLGAME OHS LARGE CROWD Probably one of the most specta cular events in the history of West Georgia College was the first game of Speedball ever played here, and also having the distinction of be ing the first ever played in the South. The weather was considered threatening, as it was very cold and windy, but the entire student body and a goodly number of spec tators turned out to witness the clash of the Freshmen and Sopho mores. Both teams seemed to be in prime condition, and much antici pation was manifest when J. C. Bonner, Instructor of Physical Ed ucation, blew the whistle starting the game. The both teams started with a bang. The Sophs were the first to score, although the Frosh were not long in coming up even with them. The Freshies had rather an edge on the Sophs, as' they seemed to catch on the fine points of the game a little quicker than the Sophs. The Sophs had the advant age of weight against their oppon ents, but the shiftiness of Glazier, Mon io, FicluS, tt-liU iil ' over came the dangerous intentions of Captain Webb, the little Taylor twins, and Manor Cansler. The starting line-up was as fol lows 1 : Freshmen Position Sophomores Morris C N. Taylor Fields, c L. F. D. Staples Driver R.F. M. Cansler Harding L.H. F. Robinson Harris R.H. Spence L. Weaver L.G.
