Pullen Literary Society, won the an-nual declamation contest betweenLeasar and Pullen societies, held inthe auditorium of the “Y” last Fri-day night. His subject was “TheAdventure of Peace."

E. W. Buchanan won second hon-ors in the declaiming contest on thesubject of "Dollar Chasing." repre-senting Leaner. A. L. Aydlett andJ. 'H. McKimmon Were the otherspeakers for the occasion. The for—mer, of Pullen, spoke on "America’sMission," while the latter declaimedon the subject of “Men and Memoriesof the Sonthland."This year is the first time in fourthat Pullen has emerged victoriousin this contest. Last year H. J. Ober-holzer, representing Leazar, won thecontest.Judging from all comments andopinions expressed by those who arecompetent judges. this was the mostevenly matched contest that has beenheld between the two societies in sev-eral years.In his declamation Burroughs por-trayed the American youth as hemarched to the World War, the per-,sonality that was revived. and thepersonality of men after the greatconflict. “If war ideals are worthdying for, then in peace they areworth fighting for," said the speaker."Ours is the obligation to push ontowards the fulfillment of tasks un-done. The idea which breeds warhas not been abolished. The worldis not safe for democracy.

Student MistakesDrunken Man ForMurder_e_r’s Victim

A sleeping drunk man, dreamingpeacefully on a hot radiator, was mis-taken for the body of a murdered manby a student who called the police de-partment to investigate.The bathroom of South Dormitorywas the scene of the supposed murder;

the time, about 9:30 Saturday night.“Good God!" exclaimed a horrifiedstudent, who entered the bathroom onthe second floor of South Dormitoryabout 9:30 Saturday night. “Murder!A man has been murdered!” Runningto the “Y" be clanged the receiver ofthe telephone up and dowu with abang~bang, almost shouting into themouthpiece “Hello! This 56? What!Did you say NO? Oh, yes. chief; thisis State College. Send a policeman outto South Dormitory at once. A manhas been murdered in one of the bath-rooms."“Mizell, a man has been murderedin the bathroom." the white-faced,nervous upperclassman, who had tele~phoned the police, excitedly told thehorrified freshman.“What! Murdered?" shouted theterrified freshman, turning white inthe face. “How do you know?"“Because," whispered the older stu-dent, "he ain't breathing a damn bit!”“I have got to see him myself," saidthe curious first-year man.When the door of the bathroom wasopened an odd sight met their eybs.The drunk lay as if dead upon the hotradiator. his forehead a mass of cutsand bruises, which gave an odd appear-ance to the face that stared up at theblank ceiling. His hair was a tousledbrown mass, every hair trying to stickstraight up. A gray overcoat drapeditself over the hot radiator. His browntrousers were covered with mud of abright sticky red. A battered oldbrown felt hat lay in a crumpled andcrushed heap at his head. The radia-tor must have gotten too hot, for justas the spectators had about finishedtheir inspection the supposed mur-dered man moved and grunted, andthen turned his face over toward thedoor—the dead had come to life."Stranger, what are you doing here?"asked Sophomore Hardison, in a hardvoice.The drunken man stirred himselfinto a sitting position."I must have sorter went ter sleep."he mumbled, in a thick voice.A pint bottle lay exposed on thewindow sill. where his overcoat had—Continued on page 6.C.

Mr. Blanchard isfield secretary of the League for In-dustrial Democracy of New York.and is an authority in his field. Hehas just returned from a trip aroundthe world, and much of his time wasspent in China. During the morningMr. Blanchard spoke to several of theclasses in the School of_ Science andBusiness on labor conditions in theSouth.There are three great influencesor forces behind the Chinese revolu-tion. as Mr. Blanchard sees it. Thefirst of these is the desire of theChinese to remOVe foreign domina-tion from China by demanding theremoval of foreign gunboats, foreignsoldiers. and foreign marines fromChinese soil. The second is the dis-satisfaction with the unequal trea-ties. The other important influenceis the Russian influence. Mr. Blanch-ard interviewed some of the Russianleaders in China as to what theywere trying to do in China.

A STUDY OF THE BRAINPoints Out That Brain is Result

of the Individual’s Habits—Speaks Here for Second TimeUnder Auspices of Y.M.C.A.Visiting State College for the second

ztime. Dr. F. N. Seerley. dean of theYoung Men's Christian AssociationCollege of Springfield, Mass, concludeda series of lectures upon sex hygienebefore a capacity house in Pullen HallTuesday evening when he spoke uponthe subject of “Womanhood."

Dr. Seerley opened his engagementwith a study of the brain. In this con-nection he discussed the formation ofhabits and their relationship to thedevelopment of the brain. Dr. Seerleymade clear that what the brain. waswas a result of what the person haddone or practiced. He likened theprocess of building the brain to thatof building a house, into both of whichmust go the “building material.”In his lecture upon “Manhood" Dr.Seerley discussed the process of be-coming a man. Dirty books. dirty pic-tnres, and dirty stories were 'con-demned as the chief agencies in theconveying of dangerously weak build-ing material to the foundation of thehuman house—the brain. The strugglethat a man has, once he has fallenprey to the poison of these books andpictures, was impressed upon the mindof every student.On Monday and Tuesday morningsDr. Seerley went into the more intri-cate problems of sex hygiene. Thesewere problems in which every man hassome interest and problems aboutwhich he very often finds it difiicult tosecure reliable information. At thesemeetings Dr. Seerley conducted anopen forum. After each discussion anystudent was invited to ask about anyparticular problem with which he wasconcerned.All of Dr. Seerley's lectures were con-ducted in a friendly and frank manner.The students were brought face to facewith those problems of life. Not oncedid he try to frighten his listenersinto adopting a certain form of action.but rather presented the truth as hesaw it and let the students form theirown conclusions. .Dr. Seerley was brought to State Col-lege under the auspices of the Y.

leges in the country. Most of themhave failed. Mr. Strickland pointedout the reasons for their failure. Hestated that three qualifications arenecessary for a member of a self-helpclub. First, he must be a bona fideself-help student; second, he must bea gentleman. and third. he must passhis work.The Carolina Self-Help Club was or-ganized during the spring term, 1926.At present there are 29 members, withsome prominent in campus activities.The faculty have signified their ap-proval of the club, as have other cam-pus organizations.When a self-help student graduateshe takes out a $260 insurance policyin the name of the club. This is paidup in five years, and then constitutesa trust fund for the organization. Thisfund is used to help first-year self-help students and to aid other self-help students who show special abil-ities.

The following is a brief written state-ment given out by him at the closeof his lectures. These are factswhich he said he wished especially toget before southern students.“The average wage in cotton millsin North Carolina. South Carolina.Georgia. and Alabama is $12.35 aweek. This is the lowest wage inany large manufacturing industry inthe United Sttaes. These mills alsohave the longest hours in Americanmanufacturing. North Carolina hassixty hours, and South Carolina fifty-five hours per week; while the north-ern mills have the eight- and nine-hour day."The educated men of the Southshould work to shorten the work dayand improve the wages.

Al-though two or three men have beenbrilliant stars this season, the entiresquad has played stellar ball.One man, Jack McDowall, hashad football laurels literally show-ered on him. After playing threeyears of very good football he burstinto fame on the gridiron this sea-son and many sport writers haveplaced him on the All-Southernteam. Within the next week or twohe will report to the coach of theSenior-All-Southern team, whichwill play a Senior Western team onNew Year’s Day on the Pacificcoast. The name of State Collegehas been spread all over the UnitedStates through McDowell and histeammates. _Another championship which isno less important was the victory ofthe grain—judging team at Chicagotwo weeks ago. For the third timein five years a State College teamhas won first place at the Interna-tional Livestock and Grain Exposi-tion. This team encountered keencompetition from the mid-westernstates, which makes the honor all themore glorious. By this accomplish-ment the name of this college hasbeen spread as being one of the lead-ing agricultural colleges in the coun-try.Championships will do greatthings for a college. We hope to seemore of these honors come to thiscollege during the year. Not ath-letics alone, but through other out-standing work.

EVILS AND PANACEAThat our present system of educa-

A. W. Atwood discusses “The Col-lege of the Future” in a recent issueof the Saturday Evening Post, giv-ing what seems to be some curingpanacea for the evils in the systemnow existing. He has gathered hisinformation from various collegesand universities, choosing the rem-edies that seem practical, at thesame time pointing out the evils.

It may be that by paying more at-tention to the individual the collegewill find that ruthless weeding out isnot so necessary, even from the in-tellectual viewpoint. There may bemethods of helpful correction thatwill save many a boy of good charac-ter and intrinsic worth from beingdiscarded like a safety-razor blade,according to the article. As a rem:edy he suggests personnel guidancework.

, All this talk about the youngfolks going to the dogs and drinkingthemselves blind is pure nonsense,according to “Pussyfoot” Johnson.He attributes the false impressionof the public that there is muchdrinking going on in the colleges tothe newspapers which leave the im-pression that the majority of stu-dents drink when probably only twoor three men have been caught inthe act.I

CHAMPIONSHIPSState College has been signally,honored with two championships

this year, each in different fields ofendeavor. The wonderful showingmade by our football and crop-judg-ing teams reflects credit upon thiscollege and its student body.Our football team has made a

name in the realm of that sport thispast season. By defeating everygrid eleven that it met except one,which was an out-of-state team, theWolfpack won the state champion-ship with a clean slate. The Packranks fourth in the rating of theSouthern Conference.

This may be accomplished by psy-chological tests which ma be usedin three ways: Assist seection ofapplications, fitting the individualto the work offered by the college,and to help discover what vocationhe should follow after graduation.Gradually under the pressure ofincreasing numbers the colleges anduniversities are adopting systems offaculty advisers for all students,especially underclassmen, and areappointing many additional deans,particularly for freshmen.

.THE TECHNICIAN

Student Forum

The article of H. C. Green. underthe title "Punishment." in Tax M-arcus of December 3. offers construc-tive criticism touching certain anti-quated student rules which deservesthe careful consideration of every manon the campus. When he states thatmore modern methods of dealing withinfractions of rules should be devised.a question is raised which presses forsolution. Sometimes it seems that wehonor outworn customs and pettyrules more than the chief purpose ofcollege life. A wilful and irresponsibleminority should not be permitted tokeep alive customs which are remnantsof the dark ages. Mob law in a col-lege is worse than on the outside. Nogroup or college class has the inherentright to regard themselves as the self-appointsd dictator of their follows.The majority of State College stu-dents are progressive in thought andaction. In the past they have beenleaders in student government in theSouth. Today we should not lag be-hind ln this movement. No doubtmany students believe the time is ripefor a revision of rules and procedures.This would be no reflection on thefounders of student government. Pro-vision was made for changes as thelight of experience pointed the way.Our oflicers are handicapped by the en-forcement of rules which they do notsincerely believe measure up to thestandards of right and justice.Allow the Council and the House towrite these rules anew in such a man-ner that they will be a source of pride,and they will have the wholeheartedsupport of the student body. Give uslaws that the majority respect andobedience will be largely voluntary.Men respond to a spirit of friendship.but not to straps. Patriotic citizensare not made by punishment alone. Thesophomore class which realizes theneed for liberalism and standards forrevision will earn the plaudits of everytrue college man. and will take a placebeside the historic class of 1911..Many good men become hopelesslyentangled in collegiate red tape almostbefore they know it. consequently theyget disgusted with the whole affair andleave school. Who can say what itmeans to have hopes shattered and toface defeat at the beginning of life?New men are deterred . from enteringschool because of ill~founded stories ofcollege life. Others fear the adjust-ments necessary to becoming a part ofa standard product. There is too greata tendency to criticise the unliked andto enforce conformity. Oftsntimes aperson who dares to be different orwho questions the status quo isbranded a heretic. People say that ifa man has not enough grit to face afew hard knocks he is not worth much-—let him go. We need to stand off amile away, get a little perspective. andjust and right? H. H. WOOTEN.

WISEAND

OTHERWISEWI have just finished looking througha volume of last year’s 'mcnmcun.As my eyes wandered leisurely overthe pages I came across some "stufl"written by that unrecognized genius.C. F. Shuford. You- probably think ofhim in the same way that I do.But. after reflecting a little I askmyself the question, "Isn't it well tohave a few fellows of that typearound?”- To say the least. Shufordwas original—original in spelling andeverything else. He never did any-thing outstanding on this campus. buthe was the cause of a lot of action. Ilaugh when I think of the controversyhe got into with Uncle Dudley. of thispublication. "C. F.” was‘ continuallyarguing with somebody. He wouldthrow a bomb into the most peacefulorganization on the campus; nothingwas too smooth-working for him totake a shot at.Once you get folks stimulated toaction you are in line for some realwork. I don't think it is good for anyrganiaation to get too smooth-running.If it gets that way something is wrong.In such a case one of two things isalways the case: its members are abunch of lolly-pops. or else they areall asleep. I prefer to think that inmost cases they are asleep. First athing becomes stratified. then uinter-esting. then dead.Day by day my respect for thehabitual. mailed “hell raiser" in-creases. Take for instance that augustbody, the United States Senate. Con-sider for a moment the role of JimReed, William Borah. Hiram Johnson.or any of the radicals. These boys are.or have been, the watch-dogs of ournation for years. They prevent therest of them from running off with thewhole works. When things begin togrow quiet and it seems that even theDemocrats have joined the Republicanranks you can depend on one of theseinsurgents starting something—if noth-ing more than a senatorial investiga-tion. These boys stimulate action:they act. . ,State College has nothing to fearfrom the radical. The most dreadedenemy this campus or any other am-pus has is the man who is asleep. Hewill sail the life from a school quickerthan any one else. All in all. give me

It was his influence thatkept the students loyal when theschool opened and during the tryingdays that followed.Later a teacher endeavored tomake Boone a center of communistpropaganda. Mr. Wei was approach-ed in an effort to win him over to thescheme. His loyalty was unwaver-ing. and he became the victim ofdeep-laid plots. Fleeing for his life,he went to Hankow. Even thereenemies were waiting for an oppor-tunity to kill him at sight. 'When he left for Shanghai. a falsetelegram to the local police authori-ties followed him, announcing thathe was a dangerous communist. Oneof his fellow-passengers on the boatto Shanghai was Dr. Sherman. whowas astonished to see Mr. Wei hand-cuffed and led off by the police.Through the efforts of Dr. Sherman.investigation was begun at once. Mr.Wei was kept in a dark cell over thenight. expecting to be called out andexecuted at any moment. 0n thenext morning he was given a hear-ing. and although there was nothingagainst him except ,the unverifiedtelegram. the best that could be donefor him was to get his release onbond. On June 28d he was released.Mr. Wei is now .in London. in prepa-ration for future work in China.Other speakers there are frommany of the countries of the world.with stories equally interesting.From the Philippines comes Dr.Frank G.

REDUCING OUR WAR DEBT(From The Atlanta Journal.)

For the second time within flveyears the United States Treasury isabout to refund one of its great warloans. 0n the fifteenth of this monththe second Liberty loan. issued inmid-November. 1917, and amountingoriginally to three billion eight hun-dred and seven million eight hun-dred and sixty-live thousand dollars.will be redeemed. in part by extinc-tion and in part by short-term securi-ties bearing a lower rate of interest.About one billion seventy-flve mil-lion of the issue has previously beencalled in for cash. while about onebillion nine hundred and seventy-fivemillion has been converted into otherand lesser-rate securities. Thisleaves outstanding some seven hun-dred and fifty-seven and a half mil-lions of the second “Liberties.” nowto be retired. ”Five years ago theVictory loan. which matured in 1032-23. was refunded. 0f its total four

billion four hundred and ninety-livemillion three hundred and eighty- life are not those whoseven thousand dollars. a little lessthan three millions in notes are stillin the hands of the public. but thesehave ceased to bear interest. On the15th of September. 1988. still an.other great chapter will be writtenwhen bonds of the third Liberty loanare redeemed. The remainder ofthat issue comes to approximatelytwo billion one hundred and forty-seven million dollars. or about halfthe original sum.These figures are noteworthy asillustrating the country's remarkablegood fortune in the reduction of itswar debt. That debt. at its peak inthe late summer of 1919. towered tomore than twenty-six and a half bil-lion dollars. On October 31 of thisyear. it stood at about eighteen bil-lion three hundred and sixty-eightmillions. This represents a decreaseof some twenty-eight per cent. Inthe matter of annual interest chargesalone it is reckoned that there hasbeen a cut of two hundred milliondollars at least. apart from goodlysavings effected through refundingat lower rates. An able analyst ofthe record, declaring that it is "with-out precedent in the history of publicfinance," accounts for it as follows:“The huge excess of Governmentrevenues over expenditures duringthe last eight years has provided thelargest single source of debt reduc-tion—for the whole of the surplushas been used for this purpose ineach fiscal year since 1919. Othersources of debt retirement havd been:the sinking fund. reductions of thenet balance in the general fund. for-eign repayments. Payments of prin-cipal and interest by foreign nationson their indebtedness to the UnitedStates from June 30. 1919, to Octo-ber 31. 1927. totaled one billion sev-en hundred and fifty-three millionnine hundred and forty-nine thousanddollars. Of this total fifty-live percent has been applied to the reduc-tion of the public debt. .The law doesnot require that any payments of in-terest be so applied. except thosemade in United States securities. Thegreater portion of these payments.principal and interest. comes fromGreat Britain. If all the foreign re-payments called for by the fundingagreements are made on time and infull. and if all are used for debtretirement. they. together'pwith thelarger amounts available from thesinking fund. will be sufficient to ex-tinguish the entire American wardebt by the end of another twentyyears."Would such a possibility have beendeemed within bounds of reasonwhen the Liberty loans were beingfloated? Hardly. Nor could the rec-ord on which it now rests have beenscored in any country save one ofalmost unimaginable good fortune.By the sinsws of an immense pros-perity it is that our war debt hasbeen reduced at the rate of nearly abillion dollars a year and that thefuture is made to shine with promise.WHAT CAN COLLEGES

GIVE?Br Du. Guam FunkPresident of the University of Wisconsin andformer Editor of Century legacies

The least practical thing about theAmerican university is the practicalcourses it gives.I have just talked with the father ofa son who is slated for a businesscareer. He doubts the wisdom of send-ing the son to a university for train-ing in its school of commerce.“Why, I've had graduates of schoolsof commerce to come into my busi-ness." he said. “who couldn't manipu-late a comptometer. Their heads werefull of a lot of impractical economicbunk. but they had learned nothingpractical. Wouldn't they have beenbetter off if they had plunged immedi-ately into business?”Here is the great American illusion-—that early and exclusive specialiaa~tion in the mastery of practical tech-niques makes practical men.I call to the witness stand the dis-tinguished English scientist. ProfessorKarl Pearson. whose mind was singu-larly free from romantic nonsenseabout education."I have been engaged for sixteenyears in helping to train engineers."he said. “and those of my old pupils

who are new coming to the nest instuck to tasteand formula,- and sought only forwhat they thought would be ‘ussihj tothem in their profsssion.’“On the contrary. the lads who paidattention to method. who thought moreof proofs than of formula. who socspted even the specialised branchesf their training as a means of develop-ing habits of observation rather thanof collecting ‘ussful facts: thus ladshave developed into men who are sue.cseding in life.“And the reason of this seems to me.when considering their individualcases. to be that they could adaptthemselves to an environment more orless different from that of the existingprofession: they could go beyond itsprocedure. its formula. and its facts.and develop new ones."Their knowledge of method andtheir powers of observation enabledthem to supply new needs. to answerto the call when there was a demand.not. for old knowledge but for trainedbrains."The only sort of technical educationthe nation ought to trouble about isteaching people to ace and think.“What we want are trained brains.scouts in all flelds. and not a knowl-edge of facts and processes crammedinto a wider range of untrainedminds."If we want our sons to be more ef-fective in practical action after theyleave our colleges and universities. wemust make our liberal education morereal. rather than coaching our sonsfrom the start in the manipulation ofcomptometers.— (Cpr.. 1927.)

Dr. Rice Resigns From Facultyto Join Milk Association

(Continued from pm 1)receiving his degree in 1916 be ac-cepted a position on the faculty ofCornell, where he remained until1924. when his services were ob-tained by N. C.

Gamma Delta. andPhi Kappa Phi. Membership in thelast named organization has beengiven to him since he came to N. C.State College.The friends that Dr. Rice has madesince coming to State College aremany among the faculty. studentbody. and general public. Both heand his wife have taken an active'part in the life of this community.It naturally follows that they will bebadly missed by the community. Thegreatest loss will be felt by StateCollege. since the vacancy made byhis departure will be hard to fill witha man of his ability. Every studentthat has come in contact with Dr.Rice regrets his leaving. for he hasbeen far more than a teacher. Dr.Rice will leave for Chicago and hisnew position with the good will ofeveryone who has known him sincecoming to Raleigh and N. 0. StateCollege.

The current opin-ion is that the reduction of the en-tertainment expenses will not de-crease the attendance, and a largecrowd is expected this year.

A heretofore unheralded and unsungWolfpack, unleashing a pent-up furywhich has been dormant in years goneby, and a fiery fierceness that gavevent to itself from the smotheringcaldron of a féotball confiagration, hascome into its own. The cry of thepack that has echoed through the hallsand corridors of State College is nowvoiced with renewed vigor, and anecho still lingers as if to refresh thememory of the students with the deedsof the mighty warriors of State Col-lege.The feats" of this band of huskieswill go down in the annals of the col-lege as history of the finest sort. Thedeeds of this year's State Champion-ship eleven will be told and re—told inthe years to come. 0f how it met anddefeated all comers but one in theSouth and in the. East.Here is Jack McDowail, the greatestback State has ever known. Thereare running mates, worthy men theyare. There is the line that stopped theonrush of a heavier and supposedly farsuperior team from the North.There are the coaches that sent the

men through their first championshipseason. Coach Gus K. Tebell, headcoach,»and his noble assistants, R. R.Sermon and E. R. Slaughter. They de-serve credit.Then, too, the students deservepraise. The N. C. State College stu-dents showed better spirit this pastseason than has been shown before inyears. They were behind the team onehundred per cent.Then there is the State College band.

INTRA-MURAL(By W. T. Garibaldi)

The sophomore soccer footballteam definitely cinched the leaguetitle by defeating the.seniors 5-0 andthe faculty 2-0. The sophs have agood team and deserve a lot of creditfor their record of four wins and nolosses or ties. Coach Miller says thatthe sophs have about nine men ontheir team that are real soccer play-ers. Soccer is being taken up in thehigh schools throughout the state.Winston-Salem is the center of a soc-cer league that the high schools inthat section are forming, and it won’tbe long before men that know some-thing about soccer will be in demand.Here is the squad that won the firstsoccer championship at State: L. E.Hans, T. H. West, P. D. Morgan, J. A.Westbrook, A. L. Cook, E. W. Tysor,W. W. Weltmer, L. H. Williamson,F. W. Horney, B. F. Lee, J. H. Nich-ols, C. W. Belvin, G. F. Papenfuss,G. S. Turner, G. O. Finch.

It.Director Miller wants to find outhow many men are really interestedin boxing and are really willing to

workout a little. Mr. Miller saysthat he wants to have intra-muraiboxing between the dormitories. Themen will be divided into sevenweights. The object is not to put alot of scientific fighting into themen’s heads, but to find out the menwho can handle their fists. Somemen, although they don’t know it,are natural fighters, and all that theyneed is a' little boxing to put themright.Some men are a little timid aboutsignifying their willingness to go outfor this sport. If they would just

go on out and learn a little aboutthis manly sport the timidity wouldsoon vanish. If the men want to,the Department of Physical Educa-tion will furnish gloves to them andthey can stage sparring matches attheir convenience. Elimination boutswill be held and the finals picked,then a big boxing carnival will beheld to determine the win era, thewinners to be given a banfiuet andthe Intra-Murai Medal. If you are
