To-College” Campaign ToBe Held in Greensboro,

1 March 20-21, 1924

The Y. M. C. A. of Greensboro ishaving a "Stay-in-School-and-Go-to-College Campaign” the 20th and 21stof March. There is to be one repre-sentative from each of the rleadingcolleges in the state, and P. C. Beattyhas been chosen to represent StateCollege.

These campaigns held by the Y.’sof the various large cities do a greatdeal to increase the number of stu-dents who flnish high school andthen go off to college. ,

The program of the Greensborocampaign is to be as follows:

Thursday, March 20Chapel talks in the schools by teams

of two (subjects for the various' talks will be chosen from the fol-lowing topics):

Why I Went to College.How to Make the Varsity Team.How to Go to College Without

Money.The Place of Books in a College Edu-cation.

College Friendships.College ‘Wit and Work.From High School to College.The College Spirit.What I Wouldn’t Do Again in Col-

lege.The Freshmen’s Mistakes.Mr Greatest Discovery.The College Gold Mine and How it

Operates.How to Use Your Spare Time in Col-

lege.These subjects are all live ones and

a ones that all Seniors in high school____________________are interested in and they aid muchin creating an interest in college for

“ those students who are just in theJunior High School and those not yetin high school.

Thursday night at 7:30 there is tobe. in the High School Auditorium adebate on the subject, “Resolved,that a College Education Pays inDollars and Sense.”,On Friday there are to be chapel

talks again in the schools and alsoIn the afternoon

I, there is to be a “Sight-seeing” tourunder the guidance of the Hi-Y clubs.The last meeting is to be an assembly

’F—Et—‘TTW,at which each representa-tive is to have five minutes for pre-senting heroes who. have made goodat his college. " '.me are to becongratulated for

having such a man as Beatty to rep—resent .us, because the way'in whichthe various colleges are presented. is.going to have a great deal to do withthe .college to which the Seniors ofGreensboro High School go, and we.need '-as many. of them as any othercollege. Fighting Cleve is a man

the Military Department

On Monday morning, February25th, students in Military Tacticsfrom the Junior and Senior classesgave a picturesque demonstration ofthe infantry platoon in the attack.To the several hundred spectatorsgathered at the observation post nearthe College dairy the war game, clev-erly executed, seemed realistic in the-extreme.

Present at the demonstration asguests of the Military Departmentwere Governor Morrison and staff,President E. C. Brooks, and Col. M.N. Falls, U. S.A., of Atlanta, seniorofiicer in charge of the R.O.T.C. af-fairs of the Fourth Corps Area.The general situation was as fol-

lows: The Reds and Blues were atwar. The Red forces, represented bythe Juniors, had been retiring slowlyfor several days before the offensiveof the Blues, represented by the Sen-iors. The Reds had been coveringtheir retreat with machine gun nestssupported by small detachments ofriflemen.The Blue forces, advancing through

Pullen Park, halted in the northernafter an unopposed advance

through the woods for several miles.Scouts reconnoitering the woods tothe front were fired upon from thevicinity of the rifle range on RockyBranch. The platoon leader movedforward and observed the situationand decided to build up the firing lineon the line of scouts. Accordingly,the first section went into action and

This, however, was notall the action involved. The Reha-bilitation students were busy truss-.ing and preparing forty-seven of thechickens that they have fattened onmilk. These chickens were hatchedby the Poultry students last yearand cooked to a tender brown by theCollege dining-hall force Thursdayafternoon. The menu was made up

In the mean-time the s cond section emergingfrom the rail ad cut near the dairyengaged the en my on the flank. Theskirmishers bei g supported also bymachine gun and light artillery fire,soon gained fire superiority and thefirst section was rushed forward bysquads and took cover in a ditchwhich skirted the enemy position.The second section advanced on theenemy position. A rocket then calledfor the assault, and the whole pla-toon rose and fired while marchingon the enemy’s position, swarmedover the enemy’s trenches with fixedbayonets, and forced him to surren-.der.

The problem was designed to bringout those principles of tactics which‘were used in the latter part of theWorld War during the retreat of theGerman forces. The entire manoeu-vre was under the command of stu-dent officers. The officers of the Reg-ular Army stationed at the Collegewere gratified by the showing madeby the students. Colonel Falls alsocomplimented the work very highly.

This was the first of a series ofmanoeuvres which are to be conduct-ed during the spring. Plans are toconduct a whole day’ s campaign laterin the spring in which the whole regi-ment will participate, the victor mak-ing its bivouac on the scene of thebattle.

SAY, MEN, WHAT ABOUTTHIS?

During the first part of. the weekthe editor received a peculiar look-ing letter, the envelope and sheetsof which were of a bright orangecolor. Upon further examinationof the aforesaid letter and its con-tents, the surprise was even moreastounding. Perhaps it would bewell to quote the letter here and ‘then give the comment that comesto me. The letter is as follows:

To the Editor of The Technician:Your remark in The Technician beingduly noted, I wish to say that this pa-per expresses my sentiments as re-gards you, and, furthermore, that thereare a few things Meredith girls do notfall for!They are—some State men—some

more State men—and yet some more!I’ll send you a book of “etiquette inorder that you may learn what re-marks are proper.There are a number of things that

Meredith girls could say—but we areladies!

If you are not the guilty party,please hand this to—er—it.

Nevertheless, being of apeculiar mind at present, the oppor—tunity is used. The Office does notboast of a book of etiquette, so weare therefore limited in addressingone who is so intimately connectedtherewith.

If THE TECHNICIAN has insultedanyone, we are anxious that an apol-ogy should be made to the partythat is so offended; if the one who ishurt will let us know, the staff willmake every efl’ort to have the ill cor-rected. It is a well known fact thatwhen the shoe fits the party, theyknow it- “Amen, and they rested inpeace thereafter.” '

Members American Institute of-Electrical Engineers Witnessingh Voltage Demonstrations

Since 1913 voltages in excess of1,000,000 have been made to per-form spectacular phenomena underthe control of a man’s finger at theHigh Voltage Laboratory of the West-inghouse Electric Company.

Recently, flashing zigzag arcs andhigh potential surges were includedin the demonstrations, which werewitnessed by members of the Ameri-canh Institute of Electrical Engineersand some visiting engineers of othercountries. .The feature of the demonstrations

was the forming of a 42-foot arc ata potential of 1,000,000 volts. Thiswas the largest controlled are evermade artificially, and it set a world’srecord for laboratory work. Thelength "of the arc, the tremendousvoltage behind it, and the deep roarthat accompanied it, combined to pro-duce a peculiar feeling of awe at themighty electrical forces under thecontrol of a man's linger. Manifesta-tions of high voltages of electricityproduce a sensation which witnessesfind hard to define.

Following the forming of the are,there was a demonstration of theefliciency of thehorn gap. A 15-foothorn was constructed and an arc wasinduced at a potential of 200,000volts. The are .rose slowly, due tothe hot air produced with a tearing

Thisself-extinguishing feature is useddaily on power systems to relievesurges and lightning strokes. Thisis a spectacular test, and is an ex-hibition that witnesses do not soonforget.The next tests were insulator

flashovers. In these tests a dry in-sulator post, built up of several units,was flashed over a potential or 800,-000 volts. “Following this, the col-umn was covered with a heavy waterspray to approximate conditions dur-ing a torrential rainstorm, and it ‘flashed over a potential of 650,0ii0volts, showing the wet insulator tobe over 80 per cent as efllcient as thedry insulator. This was a remark-ably high ratio and attributed to ex-cellent design. ' '

The laboratory contains twomammoth transformers, one havinga‘rating of 1,000,000 Volts, 1,000kv-a. Other million-volt sets usetwo or more transformers to producethis supervoltage. There is also ahalf-million volt transfdi‘mer in thelaboratory which is used for makingsmaller tests. The control equipmentis an outstanding development in theelectrical industry.

BEASLEY PRESENTSCHARIOT “TUT m”.

The Beasley-Holland Motor Company“Announces the Newest Creation '

From Its Factor

This new cabriolet, prdouced in col-:laboration with the Stevens SunshineGarage and the Beasley Body Corpora-tion, is mounted on the standard Lin-icoln, Jr., chasis, with its famous dis-cordant three-cylinder engine, Holland'no—wheel safeless brakes and is equip-ped with RiskeYear All Flat tires.When displayed in the show rooms

of the Sunshine Garage it met withthe immediate approval of the guestsinvited for the occasion. To them itwas perfect. For while they delightedin the stream-line effect of the famousBeasley floating top, the luxuriouscomfort of its pine board seats, andits “Ride Rough” springs their criticaleyes weighed and approved the ad-vanced construction.To ride in this car is to be assured

of the efficiency of its random fly-wheel,its ease of non-control, and the per-verseness of its gear shift. If me-chanically inclined one will marvel atthe design and quality of the three-cylinder engine. The many new engi-neering features include several partsof his father’s mule harness and trac-tors bonnd together ingeniously withplow lines and bale wire, a fourthcylinder never used except in case ofemergency, heat control by a speciallydesigned “Low Water” radiator whichautomatically ejects the corn cob capwhen a pressure of 15 pounds persquare inch is reached, and an operat-ing temperature of 500-800 degreeshigher than an ordinary engine, whichtemperature insures pre-mature con:bustion of the fuel.Creator Beasley, an eccentric genius,

states that he designed “Tut III” formen, but the women choose it as theirpersonal car. And small wonder, too.with its ispecial opaque curtains, itsconcave Seats, and its absolute unre-liability, it offers to the ladies a carwhich is an, expression of individuality.One enjoys the beauties, “luxuries,

Do you rememberwhat a wonderful conference it was?Well, a conference just like that onewill be held at Queen’s College, Char-lotte, N. C., March 7, 8 and 9. StateCollege’s quota for this conference isfifteen men. Are we going to fall be—low our quota, or are we going to be ‘there? We had the largest delega-tion of any college in North Carolinaat Indianapolis. Surely we can doas well at Charlotte.

Some of the speakers will be Mr.Tom Sarpe, executive secretary forthe Volunteer Union in the UnitedStates; Father R. P. Wilder, generalSecretary and founder of the StudentVolunteer Union, and Mr. J. W. Berg-thold, secretary of the Southern Dis-trict of the Y. M. C. A. The programwill be interesting and well worthwhile.

Fellows, let’s do our best to haveour full quota there! If you are in-terested, see Mr. King at the “Y,” orDixon on the campus, and find outabout the conference.
