HE A BOOSTER FOR W. G. C. VOLUME 111 SCREAMLINES “There is no one on this campus who is my mental equal”—Miss Annette Totten. This col umn wishes to apoligize to Miss Totten for naming Andy Floyd as No. 1 Bull Shooter. Dr. Lang should find Norman Tant a perfect astrologer—even at-West-Georgia he sees so many heavenly bodies! ! Some couples found anew “Lov ers Lane” in the carnival Chamber of Horrors. Romance is waining—not a vis able romance on the campus! What chance has this column? EXPLANATION: The frigid at mosphere of Henerietta towards certain other admirers is due to the return of Aubrey . Zachry, her current heart-beat, from Rome. “Chubby”: Let’s cut Physical Science. Va. Webb: Can’t do it! I need the sleep. This is no joke. We wonder what ulterior motive Mr. Strozier had when he put Pee Wee Carter on the clean-up com mittee for the town dance. Did Miss Ward go to the theater Wednesday to see the picture or to aid this column in its purity drive. Miss Weaver attends library convention at Columbus but re turns home minus library news, but witii complete decails of Fort Benning. Our No. 1 Bull Shooters even has Lucile Portwood stumped. This column wishes to express the appreciation of the college for the very enjoyable Halloween social sponsored by the Baptist Church. The dining hall seems to be con taminated at times with the lowly house fly which gently sips the molasses that tends to linger on the plates from one week to anoth er. Our advice to certain Freshmen boys—Remember the banana. Every time it leaves the bunch It gets skinned. Is it possible that Bill Litton has aspirations of signing up with the House of David, or is it that he is unable to borrow his room mate’s razor.

UPHOLDS AFFIRMATIVE IN SOCIALIZED MEDICINE M.Z.A. Defeats P.S.A. W. G. C. UPHOLDS PROPOSED DEBATING LEAGUE Abraham Baldwin College at Tif ton has accepted the challenge of the West Georgia College Debat ing Club for a debate on socialized medicine, November 5 at seven o'- clock in the college auditorium. The negative team of Abraham Baldwin composed of Field and Rainwater met the affirmative team of West eGorgia composed of Mr. Edwin Rogers and Miss Lucille Portwood. Mr. Glenn Hogan and Mr. Marion Huddleston traveled to Tifton to meet Abraham Bald win’s affirmative team. These al ternate teams debated on the same subject. Both debates were non-decision. The subject for discussion was: Resolved: that the several states should enact legislation providing for a complete system of medical care available to all at public ex pense. This question has been a subject of interested discussion on our campus for some time. On Tuesday night, November 5 there was a debate on socialized medicine between teams selected fiorn Mu Ze.a Alpha, honorary Science club, and Phi Sigma Al pha, honorary Social Science club. Participants were: affirmative, Edwin Rogers and Lucille Port wood from Mu Zeta Alpha; Wil liam Kelly and Virgil Barrett, neg ative, irom Phi Sigma Alpha. The decision was given to Mu Zeta Al pha, upholding the affirmative. This debate was the climax of a heated rivalry between the two clubs for campus leadership. Mu Zeta Alpha claims supremacy of all the honorary clubs, having been established first, while Phi Sigma Alpha has the distinction of being the only national fraternity on the campus. It has been point ed out that the outcome of this contest was of considerable im portance to the competitive stand ing of these two clubs and also threw considerable light on the outcome of the battle with Tifton.
