Editorials____————/Was Friday the thirteenth lucky
or unlucky for you?We are on our last lap. Now is
the time to do some sprmtmg.Nominations have been made for
the Y. M. C. A. offices. It is up toevery eligible man to vote in thiselection and help select the men whoare best suited for these positions.How many of you have heard
the question, “When do we take offour caps?” It seems that the capsare beginning to bear down ratherheavily on the heads of our Fresh-men.Now that exams are over, it is
time for the cigars and refresh-ments.now to get themselves jobs, butwait until they have had them allawhile.We want to congratulate the Ri-
fle Team on the fine showing thatthey ’are making. They are leadingthe Fourth Corps Area. There isa wonderful chance of them win-ning the match and along with itthe Silver Trophy offered to thewinner.The State Sophomores were
guests of the Meredith Sophomoreslast Saturday night. This is anannual affair and is looked forwardto by the State Sophomore Class.The present Seniors remember yetthe fine time they had when theywere entertained by the MeredithSophomores.
Last week there appeared an ar-ticle in the paper written by amember of the Senior Class re-garding caps and gowns for com-mencement this year. It is hopedthere will be some articles this weekdiscussing the question. The SeniorClass is to have a meeting nextweek, and this matter will doubt-lessly be brought up. It would bemuch better, however, if the sugges-tion were thought of some beforegoing to the class meeting.The student body is anxiously
awaiting the final decision regard-ing the ineligibility of Dutch Hol-land and Red Johnson. This willmake a bad gap in the baseballteam and one that will be hard tofill. Dutch hasn’t found out yethow far he is going to be able tohit them this year if allowed toplay. Both of these men were im-portant factors in the winning ofthe South Atlantic Championshiplast year. Boys, we truly hope you
The Juniors are anxious.
Do You Want Your ArticlePrinted?
Since the installation of theJournalism Department, TheTechnician Staff has beenL‘.ought face-to-face with theproblem of eliminating articlesfor various issues. At timesthere are many more news arti-cles turned in than can possiblybe published; consequently, thisnecessitates an elimination ofthe undesirable ones.
If the contributors will takeinto consideration the followingsuggestions, I am sure their ar-ticles will have a better chanceof weathering the copyreader'scritical eye:
1. Have the article typewrit-ten, double-spaced.
2. Be careful in punctuationand spelling.
3. Don’t elaborate too much;give the facts conservatively.
4. Turn in your article byWednesday morning.

To The FreshmenSpring elections are on hand and
the Freshman Class has much to dowith the outcome of the elections.Many and many a time it has beenthe Freshman Class that has elect—ed a man. What kind of men areyou going to elect this Spring?Are you going to know the men youvote for or are you going to takesomeone else’s word that he is thebest man? Don’t vote for a manbecause he belongs to the Pine BurrSociety. Don’t vete for a man be-cause is an athlete. Don’t vote fora man because he is from yourco’nnty or in your society. Votefor the man who you honestly be—lieve is best qualified to fill theplace.
Hon. J. Stitt Wilson is comingto the campus soon. To all the oldmen who have heard him it wouldbe useless to say how good he is,but we want to urge all the menwho have never heard him to go tohear every one of his addresses.You never will regret it and youwill regret it if you miss one ofthe first and go to some of the laterones. Start with the first one andgo to them all.
The council members have beenelected. We want to congratulate
three classes on their selec-tions as representatives. There aresome good men up for officers ofStudent Government. It is up toevery man on the campus to vote inthe coming election, but when youcome to the polls to vote, be sureyou know the man you are votingfor and make yourself believe inthat man. We want the very bestman possible for the office of Presi-dent of Student Government.
Don’t vote for a man just becausehe can do this thing or that thing,but vote for him because you be-lieve he is the beSt man up and thatyou believe he will do everythingin his power for Student Govern—ment if he is elected.
(:‘rive tliese men that are 11p foroffice a little thought, and ask your-
selves the following questions aboutthem: Is the man popular with theStudent bodyl Is the man a goodmixer? Has the man a good scho-lastic record? In a crisis, wouldthe man be level-headed enough toknow what to do? Does the mancommand the respect, and will hecontinue to command the respect,of all the men?

Advertising ReligionIn last week’s Technician there ap-
peared a small advertisement nearthe bottom of the editorial page whichgave the subject to be discussed bythe Sunday school teacher, the hour,and the church where the discussionwould take place. This is the firstadvertisement The Technician has re-ceived concerning religion. Thosewho are behind such a movement arecertainly putting religion on a busi-ness-like basis.The time has come when religion
must compete with the moving pic-ture show, the popular lecturer, themorning spin to the country club, andother forms-of diversion that are farmore interesting to people than thepresent-day methods of teaching re-ligion. With this problem. facing thereligious people, what must they doto solve it? Are they to sit back andsay the world is going to the devil,and let it go at that? I say, no!People are human. If they enjoy anautomobile ride along a picturesquecountry road on Sunday morningmore than -they do a dry, prolongeddiscourse on Adam and Eve, humannature is so constituted that they willitake the ride. I would, myself.
Then the question arises: “Howmay people be made to take an inter-est in religion?" It can be remediedonly by the popularizing, if you please,of religion. This may be done by hav-ing interesting, instructive, and log-ical discussions of present-day prob-lems; and not problems that facedthe ancients and could not be appliedto our complicated society if we wouldexert our utmost efforts to make themapplicable.When religious organizations recog-
nize the fundamental truths of biol-ogy, sociology, and the other sciencesand adjust their teachings to them,then people—and especially college-trained men and women—will becomemore interested in religion and go tochurch rather than to the various
'places of diversion.It is human nature to want to be
affiliated with some religious organi-zation, where one may go and worshiphis God, associate with Christians,and be in an atmosphere of fellowshipamong men. Folks who stay awayfrom church on Sunday morningswould gladly support it with theirmoney and attendance if the dogmaswere eliminated, so that every personCould become the other’s true friend.There is nothing more satisfying to aperson than to know that his Chris-tian friends will stand by him introuble. Such friendship is true of

A Challenge to State College MenNow that examinations are over, it
seems to be an opportune time tobring before the student body a newproblem, which has lately made itsappearance here.
This is a questionthinking .man must devote somethought to, for future generations willlikely be affected. It concerns ourwhole State and especially those menwho expect to become engineers andagriculturists. Not only are our stu-dents debating this momentousquestion, but rumor has it that fac-ulty members have recently heldheated discussions about it.Some of the faculty members of the
School of Agriculture have decided tobring this matter before the studentbody in open debate and have wordedthe question as follows: “Resolved,That the Legislature of North Caro-lina should enact a law prohibitinglarge Didelphis m’rginiana fromclimbing small trees.” It is evidentthat these animals do untold damageto our forests each year by climbingsmall trees; so the debate should beof interest to every taxpayer of theState.Among the faculty members whowill take part in the debate are: Dr.
Z. P. Metcalf, Dr. B. W.‘ Wells, Prof.R. H. Ruffner, Prof. D. S. Weaver,Prof. David Gray, and Prof. W. L.Clevinger. Each of these men hasmade a careful study of the topic andis well prepared to present his views;then, too, each of these men holds aB.

Saturday evening at 8:30 o’clockthe Freshman Class entertained theirbig sisters with a dinner in the col-lege dining room. Lonie Gordon,president of the Freshman Class, gavea toast to the Juniors, and MaryO'Kelley, Junior president, repliedwith a toast to the Freshmen. Dur-ing the evening, toasts were given toSt. Patrick, the Dean of Women, andMiss Welch. The dinner consisted ofthree courses and was served by sev-eral members of the Freshman Classwho were dressed in white and woregreen aprons in the shape of a sham-rock. The Freshman president waspresented with a lovely corsage ofsweet peas by the Junior Class, andanother equally lovely by the membersof her own class.
Besides the two classes there werepresent Miss Covington, Miss Carroll,and Miss Welch. Miss Covington re-plied to the toast to the Deans witha charming tribute to the classes of’26 and ’28.

“Foolish Four” Sing for CivicOrganizations; Have RegularSchedule of Church ServicesThe State College Quartette, famil-
iarly known as the “Foolish Four,”has recently had the opportunity ofappearing before several Raleighaudiences, in the form of the civicclubs of the city, and the church-goers.,The quartette, about a month ago,
arranged a schedule with the church-es of the city, whereby it visits adifferent church every Sunday, untilthe entire group of the largerchurches has been visited.
In the midst of this arrangementit has had the opportunity of sing-ing at the banquets of three of thecivic clubs of Raleigh, the Lions, theKiwanis Club, and the Civitans, andit was only the difiiculty of arrang-ing schedules that prevented it fromappearing before others.The quartetteis a part of the Glee
Club, and has several numbers on itsprogram. It is composed of E. C.(“Early”) Smith, first tenor; W. F.(“Willibur”) Tew, second tenor; R.R. (“Railroad") Fountain, first bass,and C. E. (“Charlie”) Glenn, secondbass. '
H. M. RAY WINS PEACEORATORICAL CONTEST
Before a small but appreciative andenthusiastic audience, the local PeaceOratorical Contest was held in LeazarSociety Hall on Friday, March 6, at7:30 p. In. An unexpected counter-attraction, booked only a day beforethe time for the contest, undoubtedlykept many students from attendingwho would otherwise have beenpresent.The winner of the contest was H. M.
Ray, a Junior in the School of Engi-neeringt His oration was entitled“Who Profits by War?" It was astrong indictment of those selfish in-terests which desire war and whichmake money and glory out of interna-tional strife. Mr. Ray was the win-ner of the 1924 inter-society declama-tion contest. He has been much in-terested in dramatics and in the ac-tivity of Leazar .Literary Society, ofwhich he is now vice president. Heshould make a strong representativefor the college in the State Peace Con-test, scheduled for some time in April.H. W. Taylor, a Junior, member of
Pullen Literary Society, was chosenalternate. His oration is on the sub-ject “The Germany of 1925" and pointsout that America’s isolation is thechief obstacle to world peace. Heurges active membership in the Leagueof Nations, thereby ceasing to be theGermany of the present time.Frank Seymour, whose speech was
entitled “The Path to Peace," con-tended that the United States andGreat Britain should unite to estab-lish international amity.
E. W. Bridges, speaking on thetheme "The United States and theLeague of Nations,” presented astrong plea for our country to jointhe League as a means of insuringpeace.

State Wins FromMills Tire Company
In First Game of Season State’sNine Again Proves That It
Knows BaseballDown on Riddick Field last Satur-
day, State’s nine, with many newmen in the line-up, proved their su-periority over the Mills Tire Com-pany team, winning from them by ascore of 15 to 3.From the looks of things in gen-
eral and the game Saturday, know-ing that ”Dutch" and “Red" cannotplay, the prospects for this year areabout as follows:
“Legs” Faulkner will probablyhandle the receiving, with assistance,at times, from “Whitey” Smith andWalter Shuford. All three are lettermen. Finding a regular catchershould not be especially difilcult, al—though Johnson’s timely hitting willbe missed.
Bolstering up the inner defense isan entirely different proposition. Atpresent Coach Doak is experimentingwith Johnny Gilbert, last year'sshortstop, at third base, Al Johnston, Ian outfielder, at short, and W. B.Faulkner, a Sophomore who has hadno previous college experience, atsecond base. Captain “Red” Lassi-ter, of course, is a fixture at firstbase. The combination offers realpossibilities.
Then, there’s “Rat” Austin, whoplayed third on last year’s Freshmanteam, and Johnny Matheson, year-ling shortstop. Both youngsters lookgood, and with the infield all shot topieces either has a fine chance tobreak in.Tommy Harrill, another left-
handed first-seeker from last year’sFreshman team, will understudyCaptain Lassiter. The youngster canhit, and he is learning how to shifthis dogs around the cushion. Hewill be a regular by another season.With Bob Correll and Charlie Shu-
ford back, the Tech outfield looksstrong.field last season. If he is moved tothe infield, it is probable that WaiterShuford will step into the vacancy.“Croaker” Wade, a husky squad man,who has a hankering to pitch, a sweethitter, may also be called upon foroutfield duty, and exactly the samestatement applies to “Dixie" Davis.
There are about a dozen other fiychasers anxious for a regular job.
The game Saturday was very com-ical throughout. Watson, pitcherfor the Mills Tire team, and Arthur,first baseman on the same outfit, be-ing especially qualified, played aerialball of a very high type.
Those playing Saturday for State:Johnson, Correll, C. Shuford, Lassi-ter, Holland, Wade, Faulkner, Ma-theson, McIver, Gilbert, Gladstone,W. Shuford, Morrison, Davis, Austin,Harrell, and Taet.
For Mills Tire Company: Graham,Lazard, Parks, Davis, Henderson,Riddle, Arthur, Ball, Blanchard, andWatson.

" ? MYSTERY ? "State College appears to be getting
in better focus with the public eyethan ever before. We are finding somany unique ways to advertise ourcollege. It certainly pays to adver-tise. Any modern flapper can assureyou of that.We advertise, as do all schools,
through our athletics. This is a veryold and approved method of adver-tisement, provided a school puts outgood teams. While we are not thebest in the world, we are certainlynot at the bottom, by any means.Another form of advertising is the
finished product which we turn outto represent our college in the variouswalks of business. State graduatesrank high in the business circles;both of this State and other States.Our judging teams and debating teamsadd another important cog to ourmachinery of advertising. But it isthe unusual that catches the publiceye now, and in order that advertis-ing may be effective, it must hit thepublic so they will take note of it.
First, we discovered that novelmeans of training our entire studentbody for track; the running broadjump, mound-scaling, etc. Then theyplaced across the numerous chasmsnarrow pieces of timber. These wereused as supstitutes for tight ropes,and tended to develop self-confidenceand ability in balancing oneself whilemaneuvering through a tight place.During this period, the military de-partment let slip a line chance to ad-vertise themselves as instructOrs intrench warfare.The anti-checking law was next in
vogue. This furnished a backgroundagainst which we were able to displaythe fact that we had not lost that goodold spirit of conquest. Ever pursuing,ever achieving—learn to check and toflirt. Of the unusual, 'mystery is per-haps the most fascinating. Therefore,we have introduced this in our cam-paign of placing ourselves in the lime-light.Our current sensation is the mys-
tery of the disappearing Freshman.This, of course, happened at the firstpublic appearance of our varsity base-ball team. About the time that theoccupants of the bleachers were los-ing interest in the game because ofthe monotony of seeing State varsityromp around the bases. while therather one-sided score piled up; afoul ball soared over the backstop.This being the only kind that theAthletic Supply Company could putacross. The majority of the crowdfollowed the ball with their eyes. AFreshman reached to catch it, andjust as the ball settled in his hands,presto! he disappeared. Since then,it has been the talk of the collegeand Raleigh, speculating over whatbecame of the disappearing Freshman.This little touch of mystery will prob-ably be followed by more and bettermysterious plots.What next?

“Perhapsvthe greatest drawback tothe dairy industry is the fact that thedairy cows in the South are sufferingfrom a lack of sufficient roughage.”Experienced dairymen will know
that the ideal condition for a dairycow is an abundance of sunshine,plenty of fresh air, all the water shecan drink, and a stall that is comfort-able in which she may rest.A cow needs a little feeding of grain
each day. There is no pasture in thissection that will grow a well-bred ani-mal without a small amount of graineach day. If there is any one thinglacking in a feed, the best way tomake it up is by the feeding of a num-ber of different feeds.
In closing, the speaker called theattention of the class to the fact thatthere were thirty states in the Unionthat had more Holstein-Fresian cowsthan any other breed.“When a man chooses dairying as a
life work, the greatest problem thatpresents itself is the choice of feedsand the proper feeding of them so asto obtain the greatest returns per dol-lar invested.” said Mr. Stanley Combs,Field Agent for the Holstein-FresianAssociation, in an address to the am-mal-breeding class Wednesday morn-ing.The average production of dairy
cows in the State of North Carolinais 2,500 pounds of' milk per cow eachyear. which is considerably below theaverage for the United States as awhole. “I believe this figure can bedoubled” said the speaker” and it is

FORMER COLLEGE STARSIN NEW JOHNSON FILM
Two former college baseball stars,motion picture father and son, playthe roles of big league pitchers intheir respective generations in EmoryJohnson's sixth big F. B. O. produc-tion, entitled “Life’s Greatest Game.”They are Johnnie Walker and TomSantschi, who take the parts of JackDonovan, junior and senior.Johnnie Walker is a New York boy,
born and bred, and he learned thegame on the sand lots in and aboutthe big city. Most of his early lifewas spent with a ball and glove, andfrom the time he was a youngster inknee pants he loved baseball. One ofthe most regular attendants at majorleague ball games when he is in theEast is this same “America’s mostfamous son.” He played ball at Ford-ham College._Tom Santschi was brought up in
the vicinity _of Chicago, and playedhis first baseball within sound of theroar of Lake Michigan. He went tohigh school there, and strangelyenough was for a time a pitcher, therole which he plays in the Johnsonopus. But soon he was transferredto the outfield, where his hitting at-tracted no little notice in local schoolcircles.Mr. Santschi then went to Purdue,
where he pastimed for the collegenine, largely in the outfield, but oc-casionally trying his hand again atwork on the pitcher’s mound.
In “Life’s Greatest Game" TomSnatschi takes a part, therefore, forwhich he is eminently fitted, both inathletic prowess and in temperament.

NEW HIGHWAY TO PASSSTATE COLLEGE. CAMPUSThe ancient adage that all roads leadto Rome, could now be, with all pro-priety, modified to read that all roadslead to State College. This is becom-ing each day a more evident fact. In
addition to the State highway, numer-ous railroad lines, and other minorroads and car lines that pass it, thecollege is to have a ne whighwabounding it on the south.This highway is in reality a branch
of the present Raleigh-Durham Statehighway. There are two possible en-trances into Raleigh. First the Mor-gan street entrance, passing over thenew overpass in front of the State In-stitute for the Blind, coursing on,south of Pullen Park.
Second, the Boylan Heights entrancecoursing back of the State Peniten-tiary and south of Pullen Park. Atpresent it is debatable as to which ofthese routes is most feasible. How-ever, one of them will be chosen even-tually.From Pullen Park the road runs
nearly in a westerly direction, back ofthe State College pistol range, overthe present State College farm road.The probable closest point of contactwith State College campus is in therear of the college barns, where the‘\road runs. approximately four hun-dred feet from Rocky Branch.

On this committeewas Dr. Brooks and Professor Wootenof State College, who have been bothindustrious and efilcient in cooperatingwith the Chamber of Commerce ofRaleigh in effecting the building ofthis new road.

College Course ReallyBasic, Says World Flier
Message of Lieutenant ‘Smiling’Jack Harding to YouthfulAeronautical Enthusiasts
“A good college education is oneof the best foundations that a young-man interested in aviation and itsallied fields can have," says Lieuten—ant “Smiling” Jack Harding, of theWorld Fliers.
It is interesting to note that Lieu—tenant Harding is a native of Tennes-see, the son of an inventor and elec-trical engineer. His early leaningtoward mechanics inspired a two-year course in engineering in Van-derbilt University, and later at theUniversity of Tennessee. He enlistedin the air service as a buck private,trained at the Mechanics’ TrainingSchool at St. Paul, and then won hisflying spurs at Wilbur Wright Fieldat Dayton. He was rated as mastersignal electrician and aviation mech-anician there. In 1919 he made oneof the first Atlantic—Pacific flights.
His sunshiny disposition and gen-ial good nature, in the face of allsorts of adversity, won for him thesobriquet of “Smiling Jack” amonghis companions on the epoch adven-ture of the age.
Mr. Harding believes that we areon the e've of a great era of airtransportation. “For the young manwho has had a standard course inMechanical Engineering and a spe-cialized course in Aeuronautical En-gineering, there are great possibili-ties in aviation and its allied fields,"Mr. Harding declared.
Perhaps the path to success in thisfield may seem long and difficult trav-el for the average young man. How-ever, a standard course in Mechani-cal Engineering not only preparesthe youth to meet the many andcomplex problems of this industrialage in which We now live, but italso helps the young man “to findhimself”, as the immortal WoodrowWilson said in his book, “When aMan Finds Himself.”
“One can learn to fly in a monthand a half or less,” declares Lieuten-ant Harding. “For did not the Eng-lish turn out flying men in eighthours flying time? It is admittedthat flying experience will make theaeroplane designer more practicaland the chief engineer more effi-cient. But flying is not all there isto the game. Just think what agreat service that person can renderhumanity who discovers a way toincrease visibility through fog, “theaviator’s nightmare.” Imagine whatit will mean when aviation hasreached the point when it will notonly vibe the fastest and safest meansof transportation, but also the mosteconomical means of the best typeof transportation!
“Finally, let us not forget thosewho paid the supreme price that avi-ation might live. For aviation, likeall branches of engineering, is ‘Thescience of controlling the forces andutilizing the materials of Nature forthe benefit of man.’ ”

Romance Is Not Dead,Says Professor Sledd I loved two girls,
Wake Forest Professor Deploresthe Present Realistic Epoch
in Literature(From News and Observer.)
“Merely to mention the name ofromance now is to put yourself be—yond the pale of the elect,” declaredDr. Benjamin Franklin Sledd, headof the Department of English ofWake Forest College, speaking lastnight in the Meredith College audi-torium here, on the subject of theromantic period in literature.“And yet romance is not really
dead,” continued Dr. Sledd. “Haven’twe just had four years of financialromance in which we have been float-ing on bladders, as it were, in a seaof bondage. I feel that were we tohave four more years of such finan-cial romance in which we might cutdown all the trees and concrete allthe roads we will have committedalmost the unpardonable sin.“Why, we pour out our money in
torrents on highways, and yet whena professor wants to say somethingon romance he cannot find a decentbook on the subject in the Englishlanguage.”
Dr. Sledd traced the growth of theromantic movement, describing itsdifferent phases in France, Ger-many, and England. He deplored thepresent age of realism, brandingMasters’ ”Spoon River Anthology” as“garlic” and speaking of Amy Low-ell’s “Ragweed” and Vachel Lind—say's “Ragtime.”
“If the readers of modern litera-ture really enjoy any of it, they canenjoy anything," stated Dr. Sledd.Romance was characterized by the
speaker as something that “sets yourblood tingling and makes you forgetthat you are a married man.”
Despite the present reign of real—ism in the, literary world, Dr. Sledddeclared that the world must be pre—pared for another awakening such asthe Renaissance for the RomanticMovement.
“This old earth of ours is still afertile place,” he said. “It’s not asold as we think it is."
The speech of Dr. Sledd featured-the fifth of the joint meetings of theliterature clubs of Meredith, St.Mary’s, and State. The speaker waspresented by Dr. Thomas P. Harri-son, of State College.

Before the election, Prof. W. F.Armstrong nd Judge Carr gave veryinteresting talks.
Professor Armstrong told of hisexperiences, for the past few days.visiting agricultural high schools. Hetold of the lack of interest at a ma-jority of the places. The farmerswere backward in farming and alsoin asking questions. Poor ventila-tion of poultry houses and brooderhouses was one objection he madeof the farmers he visited. He alsocriticized some of the agricultureteachers of these schools for not help-ing the community moi-e. He stressedthe possibilities of an energetic agri-culture teacher in the community.
It seems that he found one idealagricultural community. This wasthe Alexandria Wilson High School.Every farmer there seemed to be in-terested in scientific agriculture.They were organized, and even theboys of the community had organizedinto a Poultry Club. The women.also, had agricultural organizations.
“Pullets as a Factor in Egg Pro-duction" was the subject of JudgeCarr's talk. Before he could starton this, he had to add some to thepraise of Alexandria Wilson HighSchool. He gave the club some veryaccurate and valuable data on thedifferent pens of chickens at thepoultry plant. It showed that thepullets made a fair profit during thewinter, but the old hens had a deficitcomparable to Maxwell’s.
After a small political campaignand the usual amount of hot air,which seems to be necessary, thefollowing oiiicers were elected:
President—C. F. Parrish.' Vice-President—C. P. Fishburn.Sec. and Treas.——-J. S. Moore.Reporter—J. F. Bullock.“Mother," cried little Mary, as she
rushed into the farmhouse where theywere visiting, “Johnny wants the Lis-terine. He has just caught the cut-est little black and white animal andhe thinks it's got halitosis.”
