m@m WAN T AD SIt was an interesting coincidence

that on the day when the wholeworld was paying its last homage toWoodrow Wilson, the author of theLeague of Nations, the students andfaculty of State College should be Avoicing their opinion by ballot onthe winning plan of the AmericanPeace Award.

I make no claims to being a stu-dent of international affairs, but tome it appears that'by voting in favorof this plan as outlined by Mr. Lever-more we are taking a step in the di-rection of our nation entering fullyand completely into such a pact withthe other nations of the world asshall make it impossible for theworld to he throwP into another suchconflict as that from which it is Justnow emerging.As has been stated recently in the

report of the great Indianapolis Con-vention, it was estimated that aboutfive thousand students 'voted theirapproval of the United States enter-ing immediately into some form ofLeague of Nations or World Court.

In our vote last Wednesday 48members of the faculty voted for and11 against the winning plan. Of the121 student votes, 86 were marked“Yes” and 36 were marked “No.”

There are probably several reasonswhy our vote was not heavier. Manyof the members of our teaching stairhad already voted through the civicclubs and through ballots appearingin magazines and newspapers. In thecase of the students the light votewas probably due to the lack of ad-'vertisement and discussion prelimi-nary to the balloting. In addition tothis we were in the midst of arrang—'ing our schedules and getting startedin our work of the second semester.

But the result of the ballotingshowed very clearly that among ourstudents and faculty there is a con-viction that America must take herplace among the other nations of theworld in working toward a plan forpermanent peace.We shall await with interest the

reports from all the colleges of thecountry, and it is our hope that theopinion of the students of the nationshall have its weight in hastening theend of wars. E. L. CLOYD,

Dean of Students.

THE STUDENTS’FORUM

A column conducted for yourpersonal opinion. Tell it through“Tm: Tscmuons.”

Editor The Technician:Of late, at basketball games, there

has been a tendency on the part ofthe students to make personal re-marks to the members of the visitingteams, and, in fact, to ride the visit.ihg teams in general.

‘ No doubt most of this is donethoughtlessly, but even then it cre-ates a very bad impression for ourvisitors. 'Our own team has just completed

a southern trip on which we met sixschools. At most of them the recep-tion accorded us denoted a very hosepitable and sportsmanlike studentbody. .

However, there were two notableexceptions. In the first game weplayed the student body showed thesame spirit as that which is begin-ning to creep out here, but morehighly developed. They seemed tohave little desire to cheer their ownteam but derived a great deal oi

.pleasure by "riding” our team andconstantly shouting slighting re-marks to individuals on our ,quintthat were playing well. On the whole,it- would lead one to believe that thespirit of their student body is verypoor and unsportsmanlike.0n the other hand, the receptions

that we received at other schools,notably Georgia and Mercer, werevery hospitable, friendly as individ-uals and good sports as a whole.When one of our men made an extragood play they would give him a"hand.”And after the games different stu-

dents would come around to look forfraternity brothers. Invitations weregiven to the team to any social eventsoccurring, etc." As a consequencetheir schools have good names withthe boys and a friendly spirit is es-tablished between the schools.

So, fellows, think twice before youstart out to "ride" the referee or

visiting teams. Be generous in yourapplause. A Be “good sports" whetherwe are winning or losing. Supportyour team strongly, but not in a waywhich anyone can criticise.

In this way you can help a greatdeal to make State College better»liked and better known among south-ern institutions.

THE MOFFI'I'I‘ CAMPAIGNCOMMITTEE QUITS Jon

Late Tuesday night it was whis-pered around the campus that theJohn Roscoe Mofiitt Campaign Com-mittee had given up their job. It isnot known definitely whether thecommittee resigned or if they werefired. The committee contends theformer; Mofiitt the latter.

It has caused quite an amount ofanxiety among the supporters of Mr.Mofiitt, especially since this efficientcommittee has announced their in=tention to join Beatty’s promoters.For quite a while Momtt was in thelead of the contest, but recently hehas failed to get the support that heformerly had. Johnny claims thatthe committee double-crossed himand were instrumental in securingthe nomination of Tom Gentry. Gen-try, however, denies any knowledgeof the affair.

Charlie Faucette, chairman of thecommittee, made the following state-ment to Gentry: “I do not believethat Mofiltt stands a chance of win—ning the Beauty Contest. , Of coursehis ‘pull’ at Meredith is very strong,but I know from experience thatMeredith girls are likely to fall for

FRESHMAN FRIENBSHIPCOUNCIL HOLDS MEETINGOF UNUSUAL IMPORTANCEThe last meeting of the Freshman

Friendship Council, which was held, January 28th, was strictly a busnness

meeting. Although the council hasnot failed in anything that it hastried to do, it is determined to im-prove upon its past record. At thismeeting a number of importantthings were discussed.A discussion of the regular meet-

ing time of this organization wasprobably the most important discus-

. sion that was held. Up to this timet the council had been meeting at 6:30

every Monday evening. But, on ac-count Of basketball practice, severalof the loyal members are unable tobe present at this time. After anearnest discussion the members votedunanimously in favor of changingthe regular meeting time from 6:30Monday evening to 1:30 Sunday af-

| ternoon. The members of the coun-cil realize that they must have alarger attendance in order to do bet—ter work. They sincerely hope thatit will be possible for every memberto be present at all of the futuremeetings.

l g The members that were present atI that particular time selected a pin

‘ for the Freshman Friendship Council.. , Having received the consent of the

Senior Friendship Council, the mem-bers decided to use the same pin thatthis organization is using. The pinis beautiful and well designed, beingespecially designed for the Friend-ship Council. Nearly all that werepresent showed their approval of the

‘ selection by giving their orders toI Mr. King before leaving the meeting.: Several months ago the member-; ship of the Freshman Friendship} COuncil was divided into two sec-

tions, the “Reds” and the “Blues,”| in order that a contest might be held.l The purpose of the contest was noti only to cause the members to take

more interest in the meetings and at-I tend more regularly, but also to cause

I them to attend Sunday school andI church services more regularly and

, try to cause other Freshmen that doI’ not belong to the council to become

‘ interested in some 'church. Through-out the contest a friendly spirit ofrivalry wasrmanifested. The contestwas brought to a successful close atthe end Of the first semester. The“Reds” won by only a few points.Each of the members of the winningside is to receive a Y. M. C. A.’ watch.fob. It was decided that the fobsshould be ordered immediately.At that meeting copies of the book

that is to be studied in the councilduring the second semester were dis-tributed among the members. Thisbook, the title of which is “Introduc-ing Men to Christ,” was written byDr. W. D. Weatherford, of Nashville,Tennessee. With an interesting bookof this kind and an eflicient leaderlike Mr. King, the meetings will no

At this meeting it was decidedthat the future programs must pro-vide for song services. Two members,Fountain and Horn, were chosen asthe song leaders. With such an addi-tion to the programs the meetingswill be much more interesting.The Y. M. C. A. conference that is

to be held in Charlotte, February 14and 16, was discussed at this particu-lar time. The Freshman FriendshipCouncil expects to have ten. repre-sentatives at that conference. Sev-eral members have promised to go,and several others are trying to makearrangements so that it will be pos—sible for them to attend.

If the members of the audience whointended to try out for the team nextyear began to grow a little shaky anddoubtful as Mr. Hall went on and ontelling of the magnitude of the thingsthat this contest covered, and theweeks of labor spent in preparationfor it by the team members this year,they begun to smile once more and tofeel their courage and the old desireto try with all their might next year,returning, when they heard the glow«ing description of the trip which Mr.Dillard gave. Although the veracity ofsome of Mr. Dillard’s statements weresomewhat doubtful, the way he ex-pressed them and the good jokes mixedin made them heartily enjoyed by all.He spoke at length of the trip to Chi-cago, riding for days and days in Pull-mans and parlor cars and of 'sump-tlious feasts held in the dining cars;he casually mentioned touring a largecity in which they stopped over, in alarge limousine with a prominent bus-iness man; he elaborated upon thesubject of being lost in Chicago (aportion of the boys having been cutoil! from the professor in a traflic rush)and how he, Dillard, by use of his coolhead and superior knowledge, flnallylanded the lwanderers in" the right he-tel, having gone through various andsundry adventures in so doing; hewaxed eloquent on the number and va-riety of livestock shown at the exposi-tion, and even went so far as to de-clare that he had seen a bull weighing3200 pounds (about equal to that hewas himself slinging); he describedbriefly the sinking feeling one feels atthe pit of the stomach when beingwhisked away for his first ride uponan elevated railway. Mr. Dillard'sspeech was the sensation of the eve-ning, and at its conclusion he retired,amid loud and prolonged applause.
