History failed to repeat itself Saturday afternoon when tbe J un-ior class of Trini ty College won the annual inter-class relay race. This race has been run for the last three years and always heretofore the Freslinian class has been the winner. This year however the final run was a close contest be­tween the Sophomore and J unior classes, both of which had former­ly carried off the cup for the event, the Juniors winning in the last mile by the phenomenal running of their last man, Cordle. The Junior ' s time for the ten miles was fifty-six minutes.

The race Saturday was the most dramatic in the history of the event. At no time in the course of the ten miles was the outcome assured until the last of the lasl lap around the track on the cam­pus. The principal contest all through was between the Junior and Sophomore classes, and for the greater part of the distance i t looked clearly like the event would go to the Sophomores. I t was a remarkable fact that this class had the first place at the end of every mile except the fourth and the last, so that eight of these men ran better miles than anyone else, the race being lost only in the very last. The great surprise was that the Freshman class did not make a better showing. Many were of the opinion that this class would take off the honors for they had done the most work in prep­aration and made the best showing in the preliminary race last week. I n the big event, however, they came out third. The fourth place was held in every mile by the Sen­iors, who were over half a mile behind on the last lap.

I n the first mile the Sophomores finished first, Freshmen second, and Juniors third. At the end of the second mile the Freshmen fell back to third place and held this until the end, the juniors came up to second place, the Sophomores still holding first. F rom this point the race was between the last two mentioned classes. I n the third mile, Lucas for the Jun­iors, made a long gain on the Sophomore lead, and in the next mile his successor, Whitesides, with a splendid run overtook his man and came in first. The next Junior , however, fell back to ecc-ond place and the Sophomores held the lead until the last mile. On the ninth mile Few started for the Sophomores with a long lead, but the junior, Secrest, by a re­markable run overhauled him by the time they reached the Duke monument, where Few, however, sprinted to recover about fifty yards. Thus, on the last mile the sophomore, Downey, still had a comfortable lead and it looked like his race, but the last hope of

DEBATE COUNCIL MEETS

Recommends New Scheme for Intersoci­ety and Collegiate Debates,

The Debate Council held a meeting yesterday afternoon in the faculty rooms of the East Duke building. The principal business of the meeting was a discussion of a new scheme with regard to the conduct of inter-society and inter­collegiate debating. The Council put itself on record as favoring the following plan, which is to be passed on by both the societies be­fore it shall go into effect: The regular inter-society debate shall be held in the fall instead of in the spring, so as to avoid conflict with the inter-collegiate contests;

" is governing it shall be changed s to allow of three men on each

side with the order of rejoinders reversed as in tbe inter-collegiate debates; and finally, this debate shall serve as a kind of prelimi­nary to the inter-collegiate debates, a separate committee from that which shall render the decision of the question selecting from the six men appearing two or three who shall form part of the inter-collegi­ate debating teams, leaving about the same number of places to filled by contest later. I t thought that this plan will be of great benefit both to society and to collegiate debating.

Dr. Laprade Speaks to Association on Nature and Function Religion.

D . W. P . Laprade, of the de­partment of History, addressed the regular meeting of the Young Men's Christian Asociation last Wednesday evening in the Associ­ation hall. The speaker took as his subject, "The Nature and Functions of the Christian Eelig-ion," and treated the subject in characteristic style. Christianity,

_. said, has meant many things to any men in many times and has

called men to service in all lines of endeavor. I t s influence in a college man's life is not necesarily that of creating doubt, or of shut­ting out any of the joy and bright­ness of life. The world was made as a place for growth, and each man's duty is to make it a better place to live in. To do thig a man must live his belief as well as do good deeds. "Conformity to relig­ious tenets will not make men true Christians, but getting clost to Christ alone can make it come nat­ural to sacrifice for others and be

an. To be a man ought to be the highest aim bf every Christ-

The men of Beta Lamba chap­ter of Sigma Chi were at home to their friends last night from eight-thirty to twelve in the Sigma Chi j WILL WITHDRAW FROM S. hall on Main street. The hall it­self was beautifully and tastefully decorated with the fraternity col­ors, blue and gold, while many fraternity pennants and college banners added to the effect. The guests were met by Miss Fannie Kilgo and James Cannon, who in­troduced each arrival to those who had preceded. At the punch table, banked with the fraternity flower Miss Willie Cox served punch to the thirsty, while vocal and instru­mental music was furnished for the company by Misses Mildred Sinclair, Placide Kramer, Katie Lee McKinnon and Estelle Flow-

A feature of the evening was a contest in fraternity information, each guest being furnished with a booklet in the shape of the frater­nity badge done in blue and gold and containing a poem by one of the hosts. In this poem were cer­tain blanks which the contestants were to fill with names of frater­nities so as to complete the rhyme and metre. The prize for the suc­cessful contestant was a beautiful sheepskin wall banner bearing the coat-of-arms of the fraternity; this going to Miss Willie Cox and being presented by Prof. R. L. Flowers. After light refreshments served in several courses s Sigma Chi yell closed the evening, pro­nounced by all to have been per­fect.

Monday night in one- of the most important sessions of the past few years. A large ticket of business was transacted. Officers were elect­ed, arrangements were made for basketball coaching, managers and assistants were elected for the va­rious teams, basketball, tennis, and baseball T's were awarded for the past year, and a committee was ap­pointed to make arrangements for withdrawal from the Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Associa­tion.

The resignation of Mr. E". I . White from the position of man­ager of tennis was accepted and E . M. Carter was elected to the place. The Council adopted the recom­mendation of Prof. Wilson which provided that twelve general assist­ant managers be elected, six from the Freshman and six from the Sophomore classes, who shall be apportioned to tbe managers of any of the phases of athletics. The men chosen were: from the Soph­omore class, Bond, Brown F . B. , Carver, Lewis, Thorne ; from the Freshman class, Adams, King, Wilson, Hayes, Lambeth, Ring.

FORTNIGHTLY MEETS

Dr. Parker Gives Talk on the Creoles of Louisiana.

The Fortnight ly Club held its first l i terary program last Fr iday night at 7:30 o'clock, in the West

.A.A. - ^ u ^ e Building, a f which time Professor F . JST. Parker , of the department of Biblical Literature, spoke to the Club on "The Creoles of Louisiana and their Relation to the Literature of the Country."

Dr. Parker is a native of Louis­iana. H e knows the people of that state thoroughly, and has always

specially interested in the Creole population. For this rea­son his address to the Club was of unusual interest.

H e prefaced his remarks with an account of the settlement of the French and Spaniards in the ter­ritories of Louisiana. These peo­ple he said, while they are intense­ly patriotic to the United States, are yet remarkably retentive of the French language and racial ideals. They are to be distin­guished into two classes: the A-cadians, who are descendants of those who migrated from Canada, and who form the ignorant peasant class; and the true Creoles, who are of fine intellectual attain­ments, for the most part . educated, with a fin sense, and bi-lingual, speaking English and French with equal fluency. These Creoles formerly were the proprietors of the vast landed estates, with which is asso­ciated so much romance. They have been gradually pushed into the city, however, by the scientific advance of the Americans in sugar

As to the relation of these peo­ple to the l i terature of the coun­try, Di\ Parker viewed this in two ways: what they have them-

written, and what material for literature they have furnished. They have produced little them-

A .few histories of Louis­iana are about all, but they have furnished a distinct racial type and a most romantically interest­ing type, which is a wonderful material for literature.

1 George Cable is the most dis-inguished representative of the

Creoles. H e gathered up the tales -of their life, and worked them into real literature. His Old Cre­ole Tales, & book of short stories, is well worth study. Here he has given a true picture of the Creole life, and, what is more remark­able, has produced, as perfectly as it can be done, the quaint soft bur r with which tlie Creole speaks the English language. The charac­ters in his longer novels are well drawn and true to life.

One thing, Dr. Pa rker said, which has not been worked up is the relation of these people to the Civil War. General Beaureguard was a Creole. Many of them fought on the Confederate side and their relation to this war would make a workable theme for literature,

Hall will mark the beginning of a

new epoch in the intellectual life of

the students. Since the great fire in

.January of 1910, there has been no

single moment when there was not

some change in progress on the cam­

pus. There has never been a mo­

ment when the student could look

upon the body of his alma mater

and be assured that in tbe next it

would be the same. He would fall

into his troubled slumbers at night

with a certain concept of tbe pi

in his mind only to have it rudely

shattered the next morning hy

ing a new road built, a new trench

cut, a new pipe laid, or an old wall

torn down. The very skin of the

ground has been metamorphosed

out of all semblance of its former

self. Tbe whole contour of tbe

place has been changed. Even

center of gravity of the campus bas

been shifted some hundred yards to

the west.

We be­ll team' meeting of the men who ran in the

relay race this year and any other men interested in track athletics tomorrow afternoon in the West Duke building. The purpose of the meeting is to stir up interest in crosscountry running. Prof. Wil­son has up his sleeve a plan for picking class cross country teams of five men each and arranging n five mile cross country course over which to run a race after the cold weather begins. Possibly from these teams a college cross country team will be picked. It is also intended to arrange a series of hare and hounds runs this fall to be pulled off before Thanksgiv­ing. All who are interested in the advancement of track and distance running and other like forms of j athletics will please meet tomor-1 row to discuss these plans.

Another old tradition is beinj

torn down and east upon the rub

bish heap, and one which has for

the past few years galled upon tbe

students of Trinity College 'con­

siderably. They have long felt that

it was unfair to them when the pow­

ers that be in the Southern Inter­

collegiate Athletic association ef­

fectually run things way down in

the balmy Southland with the re­

sult that we are debarred from

playing our near neighbors, with

whom contests would be both finan­

cially profitable and intensely inter-

esting, while we play teams from

the far north plainly made up of

"ringers," and teams from the far

south whose claims to non-proft

sionalisin might be questioned. But

if we are to judge from the present

trend of things such will be no long­

er the ease. The action of the Ath­

letic Council Monday night makes

it practically certain that Trinity

will ask for a release from the S. I.

A. A. I t is also practically certain

that the desire of years will be

lized in that we will be permitted

to make independent arrangements

for playing colleges of the shite. It

is expected to play games with A. &

Guilford. If this be tbe case we

follow its growth. But it is not an al­

together fantastical idea to say that

this mutability this lack of fixity

in the externals of the place has had

an unquieting effect upon our

minds. I t has been bard to settle

down to consistent work in an un­

settled environment. It is bard to

compose the mind when the mater­

ial surroundings have been contin­

ually on the move. The constant

scratching and lacerating of the

campus, upon sensitive tempera­

ments at least, had a sympathetic­

ally irritating effect.

It is with great satisfaction

therefore, that we see this evolution­

ary period draw to a close and know

that tbe greater part of the trans­

formation has been wrought. Wt

hope now that an academic peace

and quiet will fall upon the

niuuity which will have a soothing

and at the same time revivifying

This makes live states that have adopted The Story of Cotton, as follows: -North Carolina, South Carolina, Florida, Arkansas and Texas. I n fact, every Southern state that has adopted text books since this book was published has adopted it for use in the schools. The widespread use of this book as a text book in the public schools is evidence of the excellence of the work done by the author. This book has received the most favor­able commendation from educators in all sections of the country.

Basket Bail League Formed

For the purpose of forming a State Basketball Association, rep­resentatives from Trinity, A. & M., Carolina, Wake Forest, Guilford, and Elon held a conference in the Ya Thorough Hotel at Raleigh last Saturday night and formally in­augurated the plan. An organiza­tion was formed and the following officers were elected for the ensu­ing year: R, O. Huffman, of Car­olina, president; J . A. Rand, of Trinity, vice-president; C. G. Dosk, of Guilford, secretary and treasurer.

The matter of deciding upon' some eligibility rules was then taken up with the result that a four-year rule, a rule requiring players to have entered college be­fore October 15, a rule forbidding the offering of inducements by the institution, and a rule barring summer ball players from partici­pating in any games played in the association, were passed. The managers of the various te.ams then got busy arranging a schedule, it being agreed that each team should play every other team two games, one on the home floor and one abroad.

The representation was as fol­lows : R. O. Huffman and Nat. J. Cartmell, of Carolina; R. K". Wil­son and J . A. Rand, of Tr in i ty ; W. C. Hodkins, of A. & M. ; C. G. Doak and H . A. Stewart, of Guil­ford; Carey Dowd and T. B. Hen­ry, of Wake Forest; Mr. Do.ak, of Elon.

Freshman Measurements

A statement of the results ob­tained in the physical examination of the members of the freshman class has finally been obtained i rom "Cap" Card, Though it is rather late, we will print it.

The average freshman, if he could be realized, would be a rosy-cheeked lad of nineteen summers, five feet seven and nine-tenths inches high, with a weight of 134.4 pounds. I n comparing this average with that of last year we see that the class of 1916 is one year older but is 5-^j pounds lighter, and falls short VAf_ inches in height.

The tallest man in the class is Mr. L. Adams, who is 6 feet 2.2 inches. The heaviest is Mr. R. O. Edgerton, who tips the balance at 215 pounds. The lightest man weighs 97 pounds. The strongest grip belongs to Mr. L. K. Turner, who mashes the machine with a pressure of 154 pounds. Mr, Ed­gerton has the broadest shoulders in the elass, measuring 17.7. The largest collar is filled by Mr. H, J\t. Baucom, with a neck measur­ing 15 inches. The record for greatest lung capacity goes to Mr. O. E . Culler, who blows 360 cubic inches. . Mr . Edgerton carried off the following records: Circuit of chest, 41 inches; depth of chest, 9.9 inches; circuit of upper arm, 14.5 inches.

Dr. Brooks Reads Pape r

The Historical Society held its regular meeting Tuesday evening in the new Y. M. C. A. hall in the East' Duke Building. Several new men were received into member­ship. Dr. Boyd made several pre­sentations to the library.

The feature of the meeting was a paper by Dr. E . C. Brooks on the Westward Movement, which com­prises one of the chapters of his recent book The Story of Corn. The paper took up in detail the conditions in Europe conducive to migration to America and showed the influences fending to build up the western part of the United States.

T H E JUNIOR CLASS WINS RE­LAY RACE FOR 2 N D TIME

(Continued from page one) the J uniors proved his worth; Cordle overtook his man and fin­ished about thirty yards ahead amid the wild enthusiasm of his

The crowd, feeling that the race was won, was about to forget that the Senior runner had not arrived, but ho finally came in to be welcomed with open arms by his class-mates who showed their appreciation for his endeavors by carrying him around on their shoulders.

The course used for the race Sat­urday was the same as that used last year. The starting point was five miles in the country. The runners entered the city over Hol-loway street* went on over Cleve­land to Chapel Hil l , thence to Main street at Five Points, from whieh place they ran to Watts street. There they turned and went a little more than a mile north, until the road near the hos­pital was reached. Here the eourse turned west and went into the hospital and into Broad street,

n returning south until West Main was reached at the turning of the car line at the intersection of Main and Broad in West Durham. The course then turned into the campus at the main entrance and the ninth mile ended at the flag pole. The last mile was over the circle, as has been stated.

After the race was finished the crowd gathered around to hear President Few read the messages of the classes which the runners had borne. They were as follows:

1916—"The end might have been worse."

1915—-"We have run with pa­tience the race that was set before us."

1914—"The class of 1914 may not be invincible but it is always on the job."

1913—" ' i a also ran." The runners for the various

classes together with the judges, named according to the miles that they ran and in the order of the ranking of their classes, beginning with the seniors, and following with the juniors, sophomores and freshmen, are as follows:
