The play, though spoken in French, is understandable and is very enter­taining. Several Frencll professors from other schools over the state were present at the performance last spring and gave it high praise.

In the professional schools, the medicos garnered 14 B averages, the first year class having six men and the second year class having eight. In the Law school, only six men man· aged to make the rolls, one in first year law, K. P. Yarborough, three in second year law, and two in the third year.

On the whole his statements are as accurate as I should expect from a man who himself 1was not on the campus for Society Day and who knows nothing whatsoever about what oc­curred. But in the interests of veracity he would perhaps have done well to investigate a little. Having at­tended every event on the Society Day programs of the past three years and talked with both students and faculty­members whose acquaintance with the celebration is much longer, I have no hesitation in saying that the contests, which are the chief features of the day, were superior to most and equal to all'y within the past five years. At· tendance at these contests was equal to that of past years, and the Society banquet, although attended by fewer outsiders than usual, was supported ex­cellently by the Societies and was from every standpoint highly successful. About the only reason I can see for calling the <lay a "flop" was that the Societies were forced to struggle along without Mr. Godwin's inspirational presence-a handicap which I believe

Goerch and J. M. Broughton and this year Senator Josiah William Bailey. They are filling a place on this campus that can be filled only by this sort e>f organization-the transformation of raw, nervous, blushing neophytes into speakers of moderate ability. Their emphasis is not upon the production of demagogues who use their "line of bull" to impress (and often disgust) others. They try to and often succeed in training men to think logically and to speak without bluster. Some men outside the Societies could profit from this sort of training.

In all justice se>mething needs also to be said about the football game 11ere Society Day. Certainly nobody regrets any more deeply than the So· cieties that we were unable to schedule Society Day when there was a varsity game here. Had there been a game here we might even have ·had the company of Mr. Godwin, for a portion of the day at any rate. But anybody who knows anything about Society ·nay

OLD GOLD AND BLACK ,

(in which group Mr. Godwin· does not have a place) knows that it is neces· sary to set a ·date some time in ad­vance. The Societies made every pos· sible effort to pick a date which would coincide with th'e date of a home game for the varsicy, but were unsuccessful. The October 19 Furman game was moved to Charlotte. The George Wash­ington game was moved from Friday to Saturday too late to rearrange our plans. The October 2 game was moved from Saturday to Friday, which made it impossible for us to make the ar­rangements. Finally, unsuccessful in our efforts, we selected November 9 as the day. We were successful in getting a Freshman game here for that date.· Obviously that was a make· shift. Obviously that didn't attract a large crowd. Obviously that wasn't sufficient motive for Mr. Godwin to lend us his presence. But not quite so obviously could we or Mr. Godwin or anybody else have done anyth'ing about the situation. It is so easy to take pen in hand and criticize others with· out trying to find out an·y of the facts.

In conclusion, let me summarize briefly:

1. Society Day was not a "flop"; the events which the Societies sponsored were well attended and highly suc­cessful from the standpoint of interest and competitive spirit,

2. The Societies have not outlived their usefulness; they are not depend· ing on the past. They are proud of the past, of course, but they are doing a work in the present and for the future.

3. Mr. God win did not support the Societies, for which I have no criti· cism; however I do feel that he should not have used his column and his in· fluence in presenting distorted state· ments and in attacking the. Societies.

4. The unfortunate question of a varsity game was not the fault of the Societies; however the absence of a game did not deprive us of many men who are interested in the Societies.

5. People and organizations prefer to be criticized constructively and then only by their friends. Mr. Godwin's criticism was neither friendly nor con· structive, nor was it based on faets.

\Vhen the Deacons meet the David· son Wildcats on Thanksgiving Day it will be the twenty-first encounter be­tween the football teams of these two colleges. Davidson has won eight of the twenty games, Wake Forest has taken five, four were tied, and for the other three there are no records. In the annual clashes (only four .years omitted since 1911) the Davidson play. ers have piled up 181 points against 103 for Wake Forest, the highest score being a 72·7 victory for the Wildcats in 1917. The last three contests were taken by Davidson, but Wake Forest ltas had better scores each year; last year the Wildcats won over the de­feated Deacons by only 13~lg, This is the first time that the game has been played on either college field; accord· ing to incomplete records, ten games were played in Charlotte and two in Greensboro. With the feel of their own green turf under them, shouts fre>m a large proportion o:f the 12,000 spectators, and stirring tunes from the Deacon band, our team should score a win over Davidson in this closing game of the season. The rec· ords of the two teams this year have been about the same; defeats by Caro­lina (14-0) and Duke (26-7) have been by identical scores. When it comes to mentors for the two teams, David· son has as assistant coach Gene Mc­Ever, who was All-American at Ten­nessee the same year that Wake For· est's assistant coach, Herman Hick· man, was picked All-American from Tennessee. The 'balances seem even, but with a few factors like home field, Kitchin, Baptist aggressiveness, and loyal rooters, Wake Forest should end the season with a victory.

A freshman came up to Jim Mason recently and said, "I've seen a copy or tWO of this OLD GOLD AND BLACK and I saw a Student not long ago with my picture on the front of it, but when do we get a copy of this H01v-Zer thing?"

For bright freshman like this we have a little test prepared. I. The phrase "Suits taliored to measure" has no misspelled words in it. (Mark true or false:) This is :found on an advertisement (1) on the front page of the Old Gold and Dusty; (2) in the local high school bulletlzf regarding home arts for girls, (3) in a local pool room and sandwich shop. (Check the correct answer.) II. The phrase "se­lect nuts from all over the world" refers to (1) an autumn walk in the woods, (2) a nickel pack of tastles in a local soda shoppe, (3) the geograph· ical distribution of Wake Forest stu­dents. (Check correct answers.) Answers to these questions should be turned in on the back of a sugar re­port, to be in our hands sometime be­tween 11:59 Thanksgiving night and the morning after the night before. The papers will be filed in the waste basket and the results of the contest will be printed in the issue of this weakly which announces that spirit is high for the Duke-Wake Forest game.

"Clean Up Week" is in full swing and the town should be ready for its final scrub with Old Dutch Cleanser by Wednesday afternoon. In our opinion it would be much easier to keep the town and campus neat if more wastebaskets were available for disposal of trash.' Heavy wire baskets, perhaps fastened to the ground or to a tree, could be put along campus walks and under favorite magnolias.; even in college buildings there is often a scarcity of wastebaskets.

With tile Hugh· Morson high school auditorium in Raleigh packed with members of the civic music associa­tion, Quinto Maganini gave one of the most enjoyable programs Monday night we have ever heard. Conductor­Composer-Flutist Maganini is a first· class entertainer; before setting into action his 18-piece chamber symphony orchestra, he made comments and ex· planations which were witty and il­luminating. Five of the thirteen num­bers played were by members of the Bach family. "A music student," Maganini said, "who was asked to name the most pre>llfic period in Johann Sebastian Bach's life answered that it was the period of married life, for he had twenty-four children, most of whom were distinguished mu· sicians." A canon, .the conductor stated, is a piece in which a player starts trllling a melody, like a grey· hound released, 'till another musician, liking the tune, plays similar notes just ·behind him. "They keep chasing each other up and down the scales till they come to a convenient note, and there they stop." Some thought that these humorous remarks detract­ed from the music's appeal, .while others felt that Maganini made the pieces more vivid ·and furnished a lull between numbers which did not break the music's beautiful spell but rather heightened it by contrast.

glory that was Greece," and be' might I have used it today in referring to Greek-letter fraternities instead of the old republic. At Wake Forest, as at most other colleges, the prestige of fraternities has been on the wane, in· dicated particularly by decrease in membership and apparent loss of con· trol over campus affairs. Wednesday night the Pan-Hellenic council made the most ce>nstructive step in the years of its existence when it decreed that no more freshmen could be pledged to Wake Forest College fraternities. Thi!J enables t:he .Alphas and the Omegas, the Betas and Phis to choose their men with more discrimination; it also keeps frosh from jumping into the collegiate social whirl too soon. The local chapters have served a useful purpose in the past by providing most of the parties for Wake Forest men; by this move they have 'Prolonged their usefulness and perhaps their ex­istence itself.

Earnest preparations for the final game with Davidson College got under way this week, ,as Wake Forest Dea­cons were sent through long practice drills every· afternoon following their return from Miami. The Davidson contest wfll ·be played on Gore Field Thursday afternoon at 2 :30.

That the Deacons are taking this last contest with the utmost sincerity is evidenced in the atmosphere of wherever the squad might be. In the locker rooms there are several signs reminding the :players of the poming contest. One reads, "No Thanksgiving turkey for the Deacs; we're eating Wildcat." Others state, "It is better never to be born than to fumble," and "Be wherever the bali fs."

The squad is constantly reminded or the tricky Davidson offense as the frosh ran through the Wildcat plays against the varsity, The coaches con­tinually remind the boys that Paul Pittman, Midget Ver:ble, Baxter Yar­borough and the rest of the fast Da­vidson backs will have to be com­pletely stopped to insure a Wake For­est victory. The boys haven't been permitted to forget the Wildcats, and when they go into the game next Thursday they'll be ready.

There were no Injuries resultant from the Miami contest, and a ray of cheer was added to the Deacon camp when it was announced that Porter Shepherd, speedy back who ran wild against the 'Cats last fall, will be ready for the Thanksgiving Day contest.

Ed's blocking this year has been above the average and he often pulls out of the line to run interference for the ball runners. He is good at opening holes in the line and a power on defense. He is very fast and when an opposing :player gets a Wake For­est punt, Ed is right there to see that he doesn't go anywhere with that ball. Rogers' is looked for to be one of the main factors in the Thanksgiving day Shepherd has been suffering from a game with Davidson and we hope that back injury throughout the entire sea­he will be in there plugging away at' son, but it now appears that be is his guard assignment next year. fully recovered and ready to go.

OLD GOLD· AND BLACK

WAKE. FOREST HAS,· GLEE CLUB SET

FOR FALL.WORK

Good morning gentlemen! As I greet you this morning there are several things on my mind, but the foremost is the recent Golden Boug-h Tapping.

966 .IN COLLEGE j Views and Interviews I Nine~een Outside States and

(Continued from page one) group, composed of Earnest Byrd, 1st tenor, Hampton Lea, 2nd tenor, George Str~up, 1st bass, and Albert Simms, 2nd bass, will present several novelties in addition to · good old-fashioned quartet numbers. The Golden Bough, our ONLY honor­

ary fraternity, tapped into its organiza­tion the TEN outstanding students on the campus. (Or did it?) When the administration took this country off the gold standard it did not intend that this organization go off its gold stand­ard too, However, it seems that the Golden Bough has gone off standards. Call in the tree surgeon boys, there's ROT in the Bough. This organization is run, like practically every thing else on this campus, on a political basis.

According to all of the information that I can gather the. membership is supposed to be chosen by a combined vote of the students, faculty, and mem­bers of the organization. Such might have been the case in years past, but according to my good friend Stude Finklestein there are members of the Bough who have admitted that the vote of the members alone is the only one that counts.

Stude saYs that he notices that the Med School again retained its ma­jority; and since he mentioned it I have given the matter some thought. (Don "t be fooled, I'm not the only one who bas given it thought. The entire campus is THINKING about it.) If you disagree with me and think that politics don't play the major .,.role in the election of the members, then take a loo lc at these figures.

bered for his ability to quote almost verbatim poems, essays, and even novels read .a single time.. A mathe­matical genius recently intrigued A mer i can educators-Dr. Sa 1 o Kinckleslein, 38-year-old Pole. To multiply two three-digit numbers in 2.7 seconds was "nozzing," accord­ing to the round-shouldered, be· spectacled doctor. He won the world's multiplication record in Warsaw ten years ago by multiplying two ten-digit numbers in his head, using his power­ful "visual memory" to perform the trick. Fincklestein (not to be con­fused with Columnist Godwin's Brindle Bull Ben) knows a thousand dates. When someone happened to mention the number 347 to him one day, the Polis~ genius stated that it was the year (B. C.) that Plato died, the phone number of the president of the Uni­versity of Vilna, and that 4.000347 is the logarithm of 10,008, according to an old Reader's Digest.

One of the best mathematical heads in Wake Forest, outside of the math department, rests above the spreading shoulders of Professor Memory. He not only keeps in his mind a large mass of facts related to the develop­ment of the college, used in soliciting funds from alumni, but he is fast at computations as compared with most people (not including Fincklestein). He evolved a method for multiplying any two numbers mentally without setting down each step, and demon­strated the system up to two six-digit numbers before the math department some time ago. Instead of keeping the method to himself, Professor Mem­ory told some of his education stu­dents how to work these problems, so that they could impress high school

in Present Student. Body

Captain Perk Reinhardt seems to .have recivered from the injury to his knee sustained in the George Wash­ington game, and will start the 'con­test at center. This game will mark Reinhardt's last appearance in a Wake Forest uniform.

Officials are expecting the largest crowd ever to witness a football game in Wake Forest to be present for the annual classic between Wake Forest and Davidson. Preparations have been made to accommodate all who will be here.' More stands are being erected on the west side of the field, and general improvements have been made which have rendered Gore Field in its best possible condition for the clash.

. The present membership of the or­ganization is 19 men. Of this number 10 are from the Med School, 3 from the Law School, and 6 come from the Junior, Senior, and l\Hnisterial Classes. All right, there are 53 men in the Med School; 76 in the Law School; and there are 319 in the other groups. At the time of election this year there were 7 members from the l\'led School and 2 from the Law School. There were no members from the other groups. As a result now over half of the mem­bership is from the Med School, and less than one-sixth from the Law School. (I forgot to add that a ma­jority of the Mecl men are not under­graduates.)

students by their lightning calcula- --------------------------------­tions at the board.

It isn't necessary to mnl;e further comment, I think. This however, is true. If the present members do not make a better job of forgetting personal f:riends and groups the fra­ternity will be known as the Rotten Twig, instead of the Golden Bough. (I trust that none of you enraged fellows are narrow enough to think that this is a result of a personal gripe.)

The Law School has in its enroll­ment this year Several men whose record surely entitles them to this recognition. For instance, there are editors, business managers of publica­tions, place in positions because of their ability; there are society pres­idents,' and others who because of their efforts have made themselves outstand­ing students and worthy of recognition, and I am sure that there are several men in the academic school who also deserve similar honor.

Regardless of the efforts of the B. C. I Sports announcer, and of the Raleigh Rotary Club our Thanksgiving game will not be played in Raleigh. The! game will be played here and if those ! gentlemen who are so anxious to have I it moved will come over here I am 1 sure that they will find plenty of room, I and a very pleasant atmosphere. 1

There will be a reunion of the alumni members of The Exalted Order Of 'l'he Tinkling Goblet at the game next week.

Carolina took a licking from the Dukes Saturday but I still think that they are the best team in the East.

The A. P. D.'s, K. A.'s, and Pi Gams are bringing Bob Jones and his South­erners to Raleigh for their dance at Carolina Hotel. . _ . -Sam Hensley and his boys will furnish the music for the 0. K.

No, that's bad! Some of us have Friday classes.

The Baptist S~nvention met in I Asheville :recently. I'll tell you about that next week-end. If I discuss that now there won't be much for next week. It's good!
