Dabs O’Dirt By ONTHAW LOWDBWN" ON THE FACULTY Betty Moore has cut Mr. Strozier’s picture out of her annual, framed it and put it on her, dresser. Look, oift, Mr. Strozier! “Spuff” says Mr. Watson is the grandest dancer. That dancing with him seems like you are in a dream and floating through the clouds. She said several other things along the same line but due to lack of space they will have to be left out. Eleanor Hobbs has quite a crush on Mr. Lavender, so they say. Jimmy Puckett ar.d Lyman Moore are vieing for the good grades of Miss Cowen, may the est man win! Look at that line of boys looking in the office window at Miss Carpenter sometimes. What strange power is this? Mr. Braswell went in the store one morning with a pair of shoes in his hand and said he wanted some money. Mrs. Howell told him he couldn’t pawn his shoes. However, it turned out that he only wanted to get a check cashed. It has at last been discovered why Professor Gordon Watson who has the lead in “L’Avare” has had such dif ficulty in learning his lines. It is this way, dear readers: it seems that Monsieur Strozier has been cooking spaghetti at various ‘spaghetti par ties/ of late. Of course, Mr. Strozier guts plenty of tomatoes, onions, beans, misues, and galoshes and such in this brew, (theoretically, spaghetti.) Sec ondly, Mr. Watson has weakness for said dish ? but no will power and can not resist temptation to appease ap petite with said concoction, unfortun ately, to the utmost distress of his digestive tract. Unless spaghetti par ties c'ease, it is feared that the success of the Dramatic Club play will be foiled! Burp! (pardon).)" It seems that the following convers ation was overheard at dining hall: Entrekin: (to Eliz, Hood) —“Eliza- beth, you should use Savage Lipstick, so it won’t rub off!” Your, lipstick is all over your glass!” Elizabeth might have replied thusly: “Entrekin, your elbows are all over the table.” But this is what she did say: “Is that the kind Mary Kilgore uses?” And the Dean’s List addict (Entre kin) replied; unthoughtedly; “Yes.” “Screws” (Frances Crews) is going to the next dance disguised as a motor boat. Put-Put-Put-put! A word to the wisec’racker is suf ficient. .*? Speaking of Virginia, ask her what her mother found on the living room floor one morning last summer. Mayo Royal seems to be trying to beat Chick’s time with Virginia. It is rumored that he is going to visit Thomaston in order to have some dates with her. Rabbi: And on the trip they saw things that they will never remember. Dr. Boyd: Gillespie was Mars on Jupiter having a date with Venus. Liddy Murphy and Bessie Dupree certainly worried needlessly over hav - ing their crushes published. We had nothing on them. But, Bessie, T wuuld pick out a single professor. “The Triangle” hopes that the stool pigeons are satisfied after, having TRIED to conduct the affairs of oth ers. The third person in the triangle will continue to be a “post” toward a certain S. P. (stool pigeon.) , VOLUME TWO “The Miser” To Play Here May 2nd ■ M CHANCELLOR PHILIP WELTNER W. G. C. TENNIS TEAM WINS OPENING MATCH In the opening match of the new season for West Georgia, Bowdon was defeated in an abbreviated tennis match 2-0. Two singles matches and one doubles match were scheduled to be played but the doubles match was called on account of darkness with the West Georgia team leading 4-S in the first set. The individual star of the day was Harris (Oc) Hay number one singles player for West Georgia. His de vast ing drives and general all-round stroking ability blasted his opponent, Garrett ( off the court to the tune of 6-4, 6-1! In the first match of the day Bever ly Campbell, West Georgia’s number, 2, defeated John Wilson, 6-2 ) 3-6, 6-2. Campbell was decidedly off his game. He was unable to get his usually steady drives into the court. It was a hard fought match with occasional bursts of real tennis playing. Each man captured his own first service, but then Campbell ran up a 5-1 ; lead before Wilson finally broke Beverly’s serve. This did not help him how ever, as Campbell retaliated in the (Continued on Sports Page) SOCIAL SCIENCE CLUB GOES NATIONAL On April 18 a group from the Social Science Club met to organize a local chapter of the National Social Science fraternity Phi Sigma Alpha. This organization will work with and be a part, of the Social Science Club. The officers elected were Roland Harris, President; Edna Fuller, vice-presi-' dent; Verdyne McClung, secretary treasurer. The president appointed a committee to draw up a constitution and present it to the club as.soon as possible. Those participating in the organisa tion of this chapter were Roland Harris, Edna Fuller, Verdyne Mc- Clung, Martha Doster, Reese Ragsdale, Doris West, Elizabeth Boyd, Doris Wiggins, James Puckett, Fred W il liams, Ovid Davis, Lyman Moore. Professor Frank Argelander of Mt. Zion Seminary was the guest of the Social Science Club at its last regular meeting on Thursday evening, April 25. He spoke on China and Japan before a joint meeting of the Social Science Club and the Voluntary Re ligious Association. Professor Arge lander has been for a number of years a missionary and teaches in China and Japan and is very well acquainted with the lives and customs of the Japanese and Chinese. His discussions of the quaint and unusual habits and customs of these people of the Orient proved very ineresting to his audience. The West Georgian WEST GEORGIANS VISIT TUSKEGEE INSTITUTE On Friday, April 19t.h a group of twenty-five people went as delegates from West Georgia College to study the progress made bv negroes, and by so doing to improve race relations. This r.tudy was made at Tuskegee Nor mal and Industrial Institute at Tus kegee, Alabama, probably the best in stitution in all respects of its kind in the world. There were fifteen students in the party, namely: Rav Dean Watts, Helen Hayes, Verdyne McClung, Lanier Spence, Alma Folsom, Fae Blackwel der, Mayo Royal, Richard Spence, Julian Weiss, Grace Wing. Jack Stone, Elizabeth McKoy, Edwin Rogers, Dora Cartledge and Doris West. The mem bers of the faculty and their wives making the trip were: Dr. and Mrs. J. E. Boyd, Prof, and Mrs. T. A. Hart, Prof. J. C. Bonner, Mr. David AI. Bras well and Prof. L. E. Roberts. Airs. W. C. Cantrell, her daughter, Charlotte, and Miss Evelyn Ballard, all of Car rollton also made the trip with the V : est Georgians. Air. David Washington escorted the party over, the campus and to all places of interest, the first of which was the chapel. The party attended a Good Friday program there imme diately after supper. From there the party w r as taken to the Science Hall where a special ex hibit was being given on Friday even ing and Saturday. The Science Hall is anew and massive four-story build ing which is extremely well equipped for all the science instruction of the college division of the institute. Among the most interesting exhibits were: the piston pin assorting machine, which measures the size of a piston pin to one-10,000 of an inch, also the roughness and hardness of the pin; the ultra-violet ray and its effect upon rocks containing various metals; the photo-electric cell and its uses; prod ucts of cotton, such as soap and cos metics; and products of corn. It in cluded extensive exhibits in biology, chemistry, and physics. The whole evening was spent in studying .and looking over those exhibits. Saturday morning the most interest ing event of the whole trip occurred. Tt was a trip to see Dr. G. A. Carver. A twenty or twenty-five minutes lec ture was given by this most wonderful and outstanding scientist about his present pursuits. On Sunday morning the party re viewed a parade of the military units. They were also guests at a special Easter service at the Chapel. The Chapel is a very large Church seating twenty-five hundred people and is most beautiful in architectural design. It has a very well trained choir hnd a very beautiful organ. During their stay the group went to the United States Veterans Hospital for negroes and run solely by them. It is situated about a half mile off the campus of Tuskegee Institute. This in stitution is kept up by the Federal Government at a cost of one million dollars a year. It has about one thous and patients, a large number of which are mentally diseased. That visit was enjoyed by all but most especially by those interested in psychology. It seems that everyone who went on the trip enjoyed it to the fullest ex tent. Tihe buildings were found to be very beautiful and well kept. The grounds were just as beautiful. No one seems to have been disappointed or to have any pa’rt of the institution to fail in coming up to his or her ex peetations. The only regretable fact is that more people could not have had this most unusual and priceless opportunity. ; APRIL 30, 1935 v,._ f DR. S. V. SANFORD DR. WELTNER RESIGNS; SANFORD SUCCEEDS Dr. Philip Weltner, of Atlanta, has resigned his post as Chancellor, of the University System of Georgia. His resignation becomes effective July 1. Dr. Weltner has served the Universi ty System conspicuously. Under his inspirational leadership the Universi ty System has experienced a renais sance. It has been transformed from a straggling loosoly connected System of over, twenty branches into V* com pact coherent Systme o f fifteen branches. As Chancellor lie has served the University System at a great financial loss, as he is one of the most brilliant lawyers in Georgia, nevertheless, his loss is a tremendous blow to the Uni versity System. In fact it proably would have been a colossal calamity to the System if the Board of Reagents had not exercised unusal foresight in their selection of his successor. The new Chancellor, Dr. S. \ r . San ford, president of the University of Georgia, is the most able available man for the position. Dr. Sanford has served the Universi ty with unprecedented success over a period of thirty years as Instructor, Dean, and President. In all of these positions he has served with distinc tion and honor. He has always been in the front trenches when any fight has boon inaugurated in behalf of education. His election as Chancellor comes as a crowning tribute to a man who has served the University so faithfully and efficiently. We of West Georgia sincerely be lieve that the University System, under his energetic leadership, will continue its meteoric rise of the past two years.
