A. and M. and Trinity are claimants forthe State basket—ball championship. David—son defeated both Carolina and Wake For—est, while both A. and M. and Trinity havetaken Davidson into camp. Guilford andElon were eliminated the first of the season,although Guilford has a strong team. Onthe night of February 2 Trinity de—feated A. and M. in the first of a series ofthree games. Captain Temple was confinedto his bed with an attack of la grippe and allof the breaks were against us. However, weare not complaining. What was our hardluck was Trinity’s good fortune.On February 22d we meet Trinity on the

A. and M. floor in a game that will eithermake Trinity the State champions or willgive A. and M. another chance. That thelargest crowd of the season will be presentgoes without saying. It is the State cham-pionship game. With the return of CaptainTemple to the game the Techs are practicingwith the Trinity game in mind, and therewill be no let—up until the last game is playedon February 28th. It is not the place of

THE BED AND WHITE to predict the out-come of these games, but we cannot refrainfrom saying that if the championship ban-ner rests at Trinity the Methodists willknow that there has been a fight. We arein the field with blood in our eyes. We aregoing to make a wonderful fight for that“rag.” Watch us!

Before this issue comes from the pressthe Techs will have completed their north-ern trip. The trip is one of the bestthat has been arranged in a number of years,and we take our hats off to Manager Mc—Geachy. He has prepared a schedule thatwould be hard to heat. It is with much pridethat we see our team leave for this northerntrip. The best basket-ball quint ever atA. and M. goes to represent us.

Watch for the basket-ball and the base—ball numbers of THE BED AND WHITE. Theyare on the way and we are promising you atreat.

158 THE RED AND WHITE

Frank A. Fall of Washington Square hasundertaken what is practically a defense ofthe Greek-letter societies in an article in theNorth American. To quote from him: “Thatsigns of progress in the right direction arenow plainly discernible is stoutly maintainedby the fraternity leaders themselves. Theyinsist that the' average fraternity man of to—day is far broader and more democratic thanhis forerunner of twenty or thirty years ago.They insist that the leading chapters nowfrequently take in men who are earning theirown way through school; that their membersenter wholeheartedly with nonfraternityr meninto cooperation in general college activities,and that they frequently go outside and ren-der social service of various kinds in thecommunities in which the institutions ofhigher education are located.”

Concerning the fraternities at A. and M.we grant that Mr. Fall in great part is cor—rect. We, ourselves, know of such an organi-zation at A. and M., three-fourths of whosemembers in some way or other contributedirectly to their maintenance at college.

Then, there will fortunately never be therevolt against aristocracy, as there was atthe other institutions, nor will any men besuccessful in establishing a so-called “gold—row” at A. and M. We should be gratefulthat we have a sense of responsibility in ourbeing here!

THE NATIONAL GUARD SITUATIONJOHN F. WILLIAMS, JR., ’17

On June 18, 1916, telegraphic wires allover the country flashed orders to mobilizethe National Guard. It seemed to theGuardsman that the time of his glory hadcome. Yet a haze surrounded the minds ofmost men in the Guard as to its possiblemeaning; indeed, unless one was veryfamiliar with the political state of affairs ofthe country it looked like a possible invasionof Mexico. For how often had the Guardbeen completely mobilized before? Any-how, the guardsmen quickly responded,knowing that even if war did not eventuate,a few months encampment would at leastbe of physical benefit.

When the mobilization camps we rereached the process of physical examinationand muster-in began. And this is where dif-ficulties also began. Over 35 per cent ofpractically every company failed on the ex-amination, and, at that, some men succeededin passing who were not thoroughly capableof military service. This caused gaps inranks which were not filled by further re-cruiting work. The men passing the exam-ination had to be mustered into Federalservice. Some balked on taking the Federaloath, and in some States large numbers andeven whole regiments have not taken theFederal oath. In the North Carolina bri-gade a number contemplated refusing theoath, but finally, with the exception of twoor three, all were mustered in. Upon thosewho refused to muster there was such astrong moral and an almost physicalpressure that many took a second thoughtand mustered to escape the “yellow” ribbonfrom the men and condemnation from theirsuperior officers.

Drills and marches at camp rapidly placedthe men in good physical condition, and allmilitary duties were performed with enthu-siasm by the men. Then as weeks passedthis enthusiasm broke upon the realizationthat the Guard were in service with no defi-nite duty to perform—with no aim and nological reason for remaining in the Federalservice. It was known that the RegularArmy could well handle the situation on theMexican border. When this truth was real-ized a high coefficient of inefficiency wasnoticed throughout the whole National 'Guard. ,The federalization of the National Guard

has caused the expenditure of millions ofdollars, over $50,000,000 being appropriatedfrom July 1, 1916, to January 1, 1917. TheChamber of Commerce of El Paso, Texas,advertises the fact that $3,000,000 of Gov-ernment money is expended in and about thetown each month. This little town is veryglad to see soldiers come and stay there;and, for that matter, any other crowd ofpeople who can bring as much free 1n0ney tothe merchants and bartenders there: Manytowns on the border, especially this one, ab—hor any order to move troops homeward. If

THE RED AND WHITE

the reader will remember, this is the veryplace which promptly reports in the news—papers any Mexican disturbance, real 'orimaginary, which could take place on theborder.As far as having 120,000 men awaiting

service, if needed, is concerned, this largea‘ppropriatiOn has not been spent in vain;but in so far as real service and value re-ceived is reckoned, this amount of moneyhas been thrown away. In most cases butvery few organizations in the NationalGuard have performed border patrol service,and but very little of any other kind of-service. Three hours drill in the morningwhen the weather permits and an occasionaltour of guard duty is about all the workdone.The National Guard has become well or-

ganized, and as a whole the service has beenof inestimable value, provided ——. Theindividual guardsman has been away fromhis home for seven months, and his occupa-tion or profession has either been loaned tosome man who will be out of a position whenhe returns, or given to him entirely. Un-fortunately, in a great many cases the lattercondition has predominated. A large num-ber of college men belonging to the Guardhave lost a year at college and a twelve—months delay in completing their course. Inthe North Carolina brigade applications fordischarge of about 80‘ men were refused.Business men in the Guard were similarlyhandicapped. Some of them were unable toget competent men to fill their places athome, and as a result their businessdwindled, with large financial loss.The guardsmen consider themselves as

men of emergency, or “minute men,” if thathonor can be given them, and dislike beingin service without being actually needed. Thepresent service then has rubbed the wrongway with the majority of guardsmen, and itcan easily be said that a future federaliza-tion, except for actual warfare, can be madeonly under very arduous difficulties.

POULTRY SCIENCE CLUBHOLDS UNIQUE BANQUET

On January 26th more than one hundredstudents of the A. and M. College, membersof the Experiment Station staff, and pro-fessors of the college were guests of the Poul-try Science Club of A. and M. at an in—formal banquet and reception held in theAnimal Husbandry building. The halls androoms occupied by the Poultry Science De-partment were beautifully decorated withbunting, flags, and pennants.The meeting, presided over by the presi-

dent of the club, Mr. J. E. Ivey, marked anew step in the poutry work of the College,Station, and State.

Dr. B. F. Kaupp was the first speaker. Hespoke of the value of organization for thepurpose of giving this phase of farming more.general recognition, and showed how the en—rollment in the poultry classes at the Col-lege had grown in the last three years—an-increase of 564 per cent in students and 998-per cent in student hours. The records fromthe Office of Poultry Investigation and Path-ology show that 1,825 letters were answeredgiving information to inquirers from all overthe State. Twenty—six thousand piecesof literature were sent to farmers over theState from the same office, and many otherthings that go to show that poultry workhas made great progress in the State—neces-sarily so, because every one seems to be in—terested in poultry.

Prof. W. A. Withers, vice~president of theCollege, followed Dr. Kaupp with a few wellchosen remarks in regard to the increasingdemand for poultry products and the good‘prices now being received by the producers.He congratulated the students on the inter-est taken in this phase of college work.

Director 13. W. Kilgore, of the Experi-ment Station and Extension Service, told ofthe many difficulties in getting the poultrywork of the institutions on a’sound workablebasis, and gave a short history of the workin North Carolina, calling particular atten-tion to the need of poultrymen for better or-ganization in order that the experimentalpart of the work might have more materialsupport.

Mr. F. H. Jeter, agricultural editor of theExtension Service, then took a few minutesto congratulate the men on the organizationof their club.Mr. E. B. Owen, registrar of the College,

was called on next, but would not talk onthe poultry subject, as he said he was notrequired to talk to students unless some-thing went wrong, and that he could seenothing wrong in the organization whichthey had formed.

Mr. T. C. Reed, Mr. D. G. Sullins, Mr.S. G. Leaman, and Mr. Cooper, all membersof the faculty, followed with short good talks.Mr. W. K. Scott spoke a few words for

the senior class and commended the boys onthe good showing their team made at Madi—son Square Garden Poultry Show.

J. E. Ivey, president of the Science Club,concluded the talk with a brief history ofthe organization of the club, and stated thatevery one who was interested in any phaseof Poultry Husbandry was invited to jointhe club.A luncheon consisting of sandwiches, fried

chicken, rolls, coffee, and pickles was served.Music was rendered by a victrola, makingthe entire feast' an enjoyable occasion.Cigars were then passed and the visitorswere invited to inspect the poultry classrooms, museum, anatomy laboratory, library,sticking, picking and trussing laboratory, in-vestigational laboratory,demonstration labor-atory, fattening rooms, egg handling andexhibit rooms.

THE DEVELOPMENT OF THESAND HILLS

J. G. STUARD, ’20

What is known as the Sand Hill Sectionlies in the south—central part of the OldNorth State. Roughly speaking, it is a circleabout 30 miles in diameter. It is an undu-lating plateau 500 to 700 feet above the sea.Lying between the headwaters of the Lumberand Cape Fear rivers, it is cut by manystreams tributary to these. A third of this

THE RED AND WHITE 16]

Sand Hill territory is level; the rest is a roll—ing country, dipping into bottoms.

This whole section was settle-d by hardy,thrifty, God—fearing Scotchmen who emi—grated to North Carolina after the battle of‘Oulloden, 1745. They made their homesaltogether on the rich bottom-land. As thecountry was covered with long—leaf pines, thefirst industries were the “running of turpen—tine and hewing of staves.” Later, when theheart timber had been cut by large sawmills,small mills came and completely depleted thecountry of its timber. Then the whole sec-tion apparently died. No industries took theplace of the mills. There were only a fewfarms scattered in the bottoms. The roadswere deep sand beds. Travelers through thissection would hear nothing except the mo—notonous grinding of the wheels on the sand.The sandy ridges were covered with wire-grass and blackjacks or scrubb-y oaks. Thesoil was said to be the poorest in North Caro-lina. A few years ago a demonstrator fromWashington, after examining some of thesoil at West End, said that it would not raisecotton. During 1900 the necessities of lifecould hardly be obtained. Often a journeyof 15 miles was necessary to obtain corn andprovisions. On the route there were rarelyover a half-dozen houses.One of the first steps towards development

was the discovery at Pinehurst that clayspread over a slightly sloping roadbed madea good road. Assisted by Mr. Leonard Tufts,President of the North Carolina Fair Asso-ciation, the people set about to cover thewhole section with a network of sand-clayroads. There is not a man in that sectiOnwho has not built a mile, or his part. Theseroads have attracted fruit growers from theWest; wealthy men fro-m the North, asDerby and Gates, graduates of Harvard;A. and M. men; and cotton farmers fromSouth Carolina.

Assisted by these newcomers, the nativesbegan to experiment on the sandy ridges. Itwas discovered that the soil could easily bebuilt up and would produce almost anything.Especially was it found suite-d to the grow-ing of fruits—the watermelons, peaches, andscuppernongs are said to be the sweetest

grown in North Carolina. Farmers’ UnionClubs were straightway organized for the co—operative buying of fertilizers.One fact was evident to the Sand Hillers:

before the soil could enrich them, they mustenrich the soil. And to do this at all effect-ually, they realized the necessity of coopera-tion in the organization of individual energy,resources, and intelligence. During 1912 ageneral convention of the Sand Hill Sectionwas called at Jackson Springs. The SandHill Farmers’ Association was organizedwith a membership of practically every SandHiller; the present secretary of this is anagent of the National Farm DemonstrationBureau. The association carries on test-farm work at Pinehurst, and gives to eachindividual member personal attention. Next,the Sand Hill Board of Trade was organizedto advertise and sell the products of theneighborhood, and also to bring in new set-tlers. Fifteen years ago the only school-houses were log huts; these have been re-placed by neat oneroom houses. And nowthese school districts are being merged intopractical consolidated schools, the pupils be—ing transported to and from in Kjitneys.Every town has its high school. In 1915 theWomens’ Auxiliary to the Sand Hill Boardof Trade was organized to promote the build-ing of the Eureka and other farm-lifeschools.At the present time, when the traveler

glides over the smooth country roads, with apanorama of cotton, corn, and tobacco fieldspassing before him, or when he stops at thelarge stock and dairy farms or at the neatfarmhouse surrounded with vineyards andorchards of delicious fruits, or as he watchesthe farmer and the school children pass inautomobiles, he does not realize that this isa country whose prosperity has been resur-rected from a soil but recently condemned byGovernment investigators.

Fifteen years ago the social conditions ofthis country were bad. Barrooms were morenumerous than churches. Picnics and socials

table, became a slipshod farmer, neithercaring or knowing what was going on in theworld. - Now most of the young people areattending a good school, and many of theyoung men are preparing themselves forfarm life at some agricultural college. Everyhome takes a farm paper; many take dailynewspapers. The organization of boys’ cornand pig club‘s, girls’ canning clubs, mothers’clubs, credit unions, sire associations, andliterary societies has made the spacious con-solidated schoolhouse with its practical li-brary the social center of the community.The annual picnic at Ellerbe Springs andthe fair at Pinehurst bring the Whole sectiontogether.

But, though the farmers are now on a pros-perous, econ0mical basis, and have made someprogress in social development, the real prog-ress of the Sand Hill Section has only begun.With its thousands of acres of level sandyridge added to the thousands of rich un-drained bottom-land, this section offers vastopportunities for new settlers, and its variedsoil makes diversified farming a necessity;with electric power sufficient, after furnish-ing Raleigh and other cities, to turn thewheels of many factories, this is an ideallocation for manufacturing industries; withmany summer and health resorts as markets,dairy and truck farms, orchards and vine-yards will be profitable. With the erection oftheir own building at the State Fair grounds,an interest and a desire to place a worthyexhibit there will naturally stimulate afriendly rivalry among the farmers. Withsuch economic advantages and a full develop-ment of the country’s social life along linesalready begun, the future of the Sand HillSection is assured.

A. & M. DEFEATS EASTERN COLLEGEFIVE IN ONE-SIDED GAME

Techs Get Good Start, But Resort to Individual PlayNear Close of Game

Although playing in poor form and exhib-iting ragged floor work, the A. and M. quintdefeated the basket-ball aggregation fromEastern College, Va., by ,a score of 32 toll.At no time did the visitors threaten to pileup any great number of points, but. at sev-eral stages of the game they gave a prettyexhibition of passing, only to lose a chanceto pocket the leather through the excellentguarding of the Tech rear men.

A. and M. started OH with a promise ofmaking the contest extremely one-sided, butthe desire to inject a little too much indi-vidualism into the game slowed down theplay and in the last part of the first periodthe Techs accumulated only 4 points as com-pared to the 17 gained at the beginning.The visitors showed flashes of basket-ball

training, but during the majority of thegame they played in bewildered form andgave very little team work to their style ofplay. Captain Kufe, who secured 9 of the11 points for his team, exhibited nice pass—ing, but received very little assistance fromother members of his quint.

Captain Temple led in the scoring for theWest Raleigh tossers, but showed a notice—able weakness in passing the ball. At timeswhen he could have turned a pass into twopoints he tried for a goal at long range andfailed. Leeper, who took Cline’s place atone of the forward positions, figured in sev-eral nice plays and secured three field goals.The score at the end of the first period was

21 to 7, the visitors securing only 4 points inthe last half.The line-up:

A. & M. QUINT IS VICTORIOUSOVER GUILFORD, 39 TO 24

Coach Hartsell’s Tossers Give Pretty Exhibition ofPopular Indoor Game

A. and M. defeated Guilford College Jan-uary 27th, 39 to 24, in by far the best andmost exciting basket—ball game on the audi—torium court this season.

Encouraged by the return of ForwardCline, who had been out of practice on ac-count of injury, the Tech tossers entered thegame with a confidence of victory, and afterthey were once in the lead the visitors werenever able to check them. A. and M. wasfirst to register a goal and had secured twobefore Guilford got their initial one. How-ever, the Quakers began a spurt and wereleading by four points before the local col—leg‘ians were able to get their team workstarted. Once the locals got their signalsworking, Guilford never seriously threatenedto assume the lead again. The first periodended with a score of 18 to 15 in A. and M.’sfavor.

A. and M. opened the final half with a rushand piled up nine points while the visitorssecured a lone field goal. The Techs con—tinued to advance at the same ratio until thelast few minutes of play, when two goalsenabled Guilford supporters to have slighthope of overhauling the long lead. The time-keeper’s whistle, however, soon told the finaloutcome.The entire A. and M. team gave a con-

sistent exhibition of good basket-ball, which

166 THE RED AND WHITE

included fast passing, excellent team—work,and strong guarding. The work of Temple,Cline, and Lewis in goal shooting was ap-plauded time after time, Lewis’s work beingvery noticeable. He held his opponent toone field goal and was an important man inpassing. Cline led in field goals with sevento his credit and received much attention byhis all—round floorwork. ‘Red” Johnsonplayed a strong game at guard and startedmany of the passes.Massey was the individual star for Guil—

ford. Although playing guard, he amassedfour field and four foul goals to his credit fora total of 12 points, which was half of histeam’s number. The visitors used good team—work in starting their passes, but encoun-tered strong guarding near the goal.The line—up:

A. & M. ADDS ANOTHER VICTORY BYDEFEATING. STETSON UNIVERSITY

Techs Team Holds Florida Boys to Lone Field Goalin Last Period; Score 28-14

Holding their opponents to a lone fieldgoal—two points—in the final half, the A.and M. five defeated the quint from StetsonUniversity, Deland, Fla., 011 the auditorium

court by a score of 28 to 14. - Featured byclose guarding and fast playing by bothteams, the game was hard fought through—out, especially in the first half, and it waseither quint’s victory until the West Raleightossers forged ahead shortly after openingthe final period.The Florida boys threw a scare into the

A. and M. camp by starting off like a whirl—wind, and after the first five minutes of playthey had the best end of a 12—4 score. TheTechs then began a system of closer guardingand gradually cut down their opponents’leadvto a margin of one point by speeding uptheir play about five minutes before the endof the half. The locals’ speed was respon—sible for their addition of several field goals.At the end of the first period the score stood12 to 11 in Stetson’s favor.A foul shot by Temple at the beginning of

the final half enabled A. and M. to tie thecount, and although the score was tied oncemore at114 all the visitors never again threat—ened to overtake a lead that the Techs grad-ually increased until the referee’s whistleended play as Cline shot the last field goalinto the basket. Miller made the only fieldgoal secured by his team in the last halfshortly after the opening of the half, and ex-tremely close guarding always resulted infailure to pocket the ball after the visitorshad succeeded in working the leather undertheir basket.The work of both quints in passing the

ball was way above the ordinary, and atvarious stages of the game both teams gavepretty exhibitions of team-work. Intercept—ing passes was no common part of the playby any means, and time after time the ballwould change possession through the alert-ness of players 011 both quints.The entire A. and M. team played a strong

game. Every player did his work accordingto his very best ability, and there was not a ‘moment during the forty minutes of playthat some Tech tosser did not have a chanceat a field goal. Ducey, Lewis, and Cline se—cured three field goals, while Captain Templepocketed two field goals. Johnson played astrong game at guard and started much ofthe passing.

TECH QUINT WINS FROM DAVIDSONFIVE BY SCORE 0F 32 TO 26

Cline’s Three Goals Enabled A. & M. To Grab Victory;Play Close and Exciting Game

With the score standing tied at 26 all andonly three minutes to play, Left ForwardCline’s three goals enabled A. and M. to de—feat Davidson 32 to 26, and furnished one ofthe most thrilling finishes to a basket-ball ‘game ever played in this city. Five timestied, the score never showed a margin advan-tageous enough for either quint to ease up itsplay, and throughout the second half it waseither team’s victory. Speed, enthusiasm,and plenty of pretty passing and goal shoot—ing abounded from beginning to end, andthere was never a dull moment for the fansduring the exhibition.The most notable part of the game was the

work of Ripple, a freshman playing his firstcomplete varsity game, who took CaptainTemple’s place at right forward. This youngplayer led in the scoring with seven goals to

his credit, and it is needless to say that hewas the principal point-getter for his team.Time after time shaking off guards, he pock-eted the leather under difficulties. However,it was Cline’s pretty shooting in the lastthree minutes of play that gave the Techsthe margin of victory. Two of his shots werefrom difficult angles of the court and drewtremendous applause fro-m the spectators.

Another player who featured was King,whose five goals in the first half gave theDavidson tossers an advantage over thelocals and materially aided his team to takethe lead early in the first half, which endedwith Davidson claiming the large end of a12-15 score. However, in the last half A.and M. guards covered King on every playand he was held scoreless.

Lewis was the first to register a goal, giv-ing A. and M. the opening score, but thevisitors soon tied the count and by severalpretty goals ran their total to 10 points whileA. and M. was held to 4. Ripple and Clinethen started their floor work and narrowedthe margin to 3 points.The second half'was entirely too close for

both players and spectators. First one teamand then the other would assume the leadonly to lose it in short order. The work ofboth quints was spectacular at times, andplenty of speed was injected into the play.The line—up:

DURING THE ABSENCE OFCAPTAIN TEMPLE TRINITY

DEFEATS THE TECHS

With Captain Temple out of the game onaccount of sickneess, the A. and M. quint lostto Trinity by a score of 32 to 24 in the firstgame of a series of three.

Discouraged by their hard luck, it was evi—dent throughout the entire game that theA. and M. boys were not in their best form.Their passing was inaccurate and they couldnot find the basket. Had they showed theirformer form it would have been spelled de—feat for the Trinity five.

Lewis and Cline featured for A. and M.“Red” Johnson played a strong guardinggame, and time after time took the ball fromFerrall and passed it down the court for agoal.During the last few minutes of play Coach

Hartsell sent in a new team, with the excepation of Johnson and Lewis. During thisperiod Ripple, who substituted for Leeper,scored a pretty field goal and Van Brocklindid some pretty guarding.Groome and Martin were the outstanding

stars for Trinity. The tall center played abeautiful game. He caged three goals in thefirst period. Ferrall attracted much atten—tion by his splendid passing and the diminu—tive player incidentally secured the prettiestshot from the floor. Mayes shooting near theclose of the final period gave Trinity sixpoints that enabled them to play safe.

Excellent guarding at critical times andthe continued rooting of A. and M. studentsencouraging their team when the boys beganoccasional spurts, made the game full of pepand enthusiasm from beginning to end.Music by the A. and M. band added muchtowards making the game interesting.The game was played without an umpire

in the first half. Umpire Polk Denmarktaking Lewis’s place because the latter wasdelayed by a late train. He arrived fromGreensboro in time to referee in the lastperiod. The line-up:

ALUMNI

GARDNER IS BOOSTEDFOR GOVERNORSHIP

A. & M. Alumni Banquet with Lieutenant-GovernorGuest of Honor

Alumni of A. and M. College holding theirmidwinter meeting around a plentifullyspread banquet table at the College Fridaynight predicted that Max Gardner, who wasthe guest of honor, would be the next Gov-ernor of North Carolina, and the Lieutenant-Governor, who is a graduate of the institu-tion and who has fought for the Red andWhite on the athletic field of battle, washighly commended by alumni and guests.During the course of short after—dinner talkshe was referred to as a man made from mate-rial from which people like to make govern—ors and as the man who made a gain everytime he hit the line in the battle of life.There were many conflicting attractions,

and the weather was severe, but these factorsdid not deter from the attendance, andabout one hundred were around the tables.The feasting began with oyster cocktail andwent through six courses, ending with theinevitable demi-tasse and cigars, over whichthe guests sipped and puffed during thesnappy speech-making.The meeting was presided over by John A.

Park, who paid a glowing tribute to the dis—tinguished guest of honor. He was proudthat Max Gardner was an alumnus of hisalma mater, and was glad to have him pres—ent. Mr. Park was an- ideal toastmaster andinstilled appropriate humor in the introduc—tion of the speakers.

Those who made short talks were C. B.Williams, Representative McLendon of Dur-ham, Senators Bunn, Ray, Bennett, andMatheson, Representative Matthews, HarryHartsell, President Riddick, D. F. Giles, andCol. George Peterson.The majority of the speakers were alumni

of the College, and all were friends. SenatorBunn and Representative Holding are Wake

Forest men, and they recalled interesting in—cidents resulting from conflicts between thetwo ancient rivals on the athletic field.Although they considered the College anenemy in athletics, they were its friends be-cause of the wonderful achievements accom-plished by the institution along lines of engi-neering and agriculture.The members of the Legislature, two of

which are on the Appropriations Committee,in making short addresses promised the Col-lege aid and support in its efforts to secureappropriations sufficient to promote the workit has undertaken.‘Dean Thomas Harrison could not be pres-

ent, but he sent a letter which was read byMr. Park. He expressed his greetings to theassociation and sent the message to» the guestof honor that four years from now his friendswere hoping to make it Governor Gardner.

Representative McLendon of Durham wasintroduced as the man who in his tramp to-wards fame had first been a farmer, then asoldier, next a lawyer, and now had sprouteda moustache. Mr. McLendon said that whenhe was a student he never thought that theday would come when he would be able todo something for A. and M. He didn’t knowwhether or not he was in that position now,but he stood where he could make a big“fuss” and he was ready to make that “fuss”in behalf of his alma mater.Harry Hartsell, head coach, was intro—

duced as “Open Front.” He told of his as—pirations in an athletic way towards the in-stitution. He was encouraged by the prog-ress made along all lines of athletic work,and he promised the Red and White a foot-ball eleven for 1917 that will be on a parwith any in the Southland.

Col. George Peterson spoke of the'militaryfeature of the institution. He said that thepatriotism of the boys who had attended A.and M. had gone a long way towards makingthe National Guard what it is today. ColonelPeterson said that he would like to see thefaculty and students do more along this linein the future.

170 THE RED AND WHITE

It fell to the lot of D. F. Giles, superin—tendent of Wake County schools and a boy-hood chum of the guest of honor, to introducethe principal speaker. He said that the peo—

Vple of Western North Carolina loved MaxGardner, and that long ago they had recog—nized in him a man ever ready to championthe cause of all who needed and deserved hischampionship. He had always, even fromboyhood, worshiped MaX as a hero, and hewas glad to introduce him as a man con—structed from the material from which peo-ple like to make governors.The Lieutenant-Governor was brief. He

said that he did not wish to weary hishearers. “When I came to A. and M.,” hesaid, “I had nothing, and in one sense of theword, I still have it.” He was glad to be atthe dinner, and was deeply appreciative ofthe spirit which prompted the affair in hishonor.Mr. Gardner was glowing in his love for

A. and M. Always the old College wouldrank high in his esteem. He had come to itjust a country lad and an orphan. The menwho had the school in charge had taken himunder their care and guided and directedhim. To them he acknowledged credit formost of his accomplishments.The speaker closed with a beautiful word-

picture of the North Carolina that is tocome. A. and 34., working in cooperationwith other institutions and aided by theState’s resources, will see the day when everycity, every town, and every hamlet will belinked with golden fields of grain and snowyacres of cotton, dotted with manufacturingand industrial plants.

/It is a noteworthy fact that out of nine-

teen farm—life school principals in the State,thirteeen of these men are A. and M. gradu—ates. There is no more noble and usefulcalling in the agricultural field today thanthat of the farm—life school teacher. They,more than any other factor, are tending tokeep the boys and girls 011 the farm. A. andM. feels justly proud that her sons are play-ing such a prominent part in future develop—ment of our native State.

The following are the graduates of A. andM. who are carrying on this important workin North Carolina: Z. C. Gardner, RS, 16;H. L. Joslyn, BS. ’13; M. L. Eargle, BS.’08; S. J. Kirby, BS. ’12; A. L. Teachey,RS. ’15; T. L. Bayne, Jr., BS. ’14; H. W.Bullard, BS. ’14; J. H. Speas, RS. ’16;S. G. Crater, BS. ’16; D. E. Roberts, BS.’14; K. L. Greenfield, BS. ’16; J. S. Howard,BS. ’15; and R. M. Ritchie, BS. ’16.

There are others who are answering tothis call from other States all over the Na-'tion.

J. V. Champion, BE. ’16, and MissFrances Lowen of Titusville, Pa, were mar-ried at the bride’s home in Titusville onSaturday evening, February 3d, at 3 o’clock.Mr. Champion was a Raleigh boy and is

well remembered by many friends among thestudents and alumni as a star football player.He has recently resigned a position with theWestinghouse Company, at Wilkinsburg,Pa, to accept one with the Ingersoll—RandCompany at Painted Post, N. Y. His brideis pleasantly remembered in Raleigh, whereshe made many friends during the year shespent in the city as domestic science teacherin the Raleigh High School.

R. A. Gill, BE. ’14, was married to MissGrace Shepherd of Statesville, in El Paso,Texas, 011 Monday, January 29th.Mr. Gill is stationed in El Paso, being with

the North Carolina Cavalry troop. Hisbride left Statesville for a supposed visit toCharlotte, but instead of visiting in Char—lotte she went on down to the border, wherethey were married. Mr. and Mrs. Gill willmake their home in El Paso for the present.

Dr. J. I. Handley, BS. ’14, having re—signed his position with the veterinary de-partment of the College, is now assistantprofessor of surgery and clinics at the Michi—gan Agricultural College, East Lansing. Dr.S. A. Alexander, likewise an alumnus, hasfilled the vacancy Dr. Handley left.

GaloshesWhen Hermes used to hurry roundOn errands for the gods of Greece,

He tried wing’d sandals once and foundThat they were mighty to increase

His speed afoot or through the air;By them his tasks were swiftly done,

With leisure left for him to fareOn pleasure bent through wind and sun.

But Hermes, as the sculptors show,Was fairer for the sandal wings;

They added grace as well as “g0”To his Olypian journeyings.

If Hermes still were carrying mail,As when Olypian slopes were fair,

He’d put his sandal wings on sale,And, following fashion’s whim, would wear

Six-buckled “artics” on his feetWith buckles loose and flaps that yawn;

And then he’d slop through snow and sleetWith all his grace and swiftness gone.

GET POSTED ON THE SPREADER QUESTION

The man who uses a Low Cloverleaf, Low Corn Kingor LOW 20th Century spreader these days is taking advantageof the newest efficiency in spreader building. His land increasesin value and his cr0ps grow better in quality and larger in yield,because, of all the spreaders on the market, these come nearest toworking as a spreaders should work. i

It is a long jump from the ordinary machine to the modernIow spreader with its double beater and wide spread. Every farmerwho knows the value of good spreading is buying one of these widespread machines. As a matter of fact, no farmer can afford to buyany other kind, because the saving of time and labor and the betterjob of spreading done by a Low Cloverleaf, Low Corn Kingor LOW 20th Century makes them .worth more than ordinaryspreaders.

Complete information about these machines is worth money toyou. Drop us a line at the address below and we will show youvery plainly the advantages to be found in LOW Cloverleaf,LOW Corn King and LOW 20th Century spreaders. Youwill find this interesting.
