R. 0. T. C. DRILL COMMENDED BY

COL.JMEMSL t Heckman Has Best Drilled and

Lt. Spencer Best Appearing Platoon CoL Deems Eipresses Satisfac­

tion with the Progress of the Unit

DISTINGUISHED ARMY CAREER

The R. O. T. C. unit of the Drexel In ­stitute was inspected on Tuesday last by Col. Clarence Deems, Jr., R. O. T.C. officer of the Third Corps Area. Col. Deems is an old friend of Drexel as this is the fourth consecutive year that he has inspected the unit; the three previous inspections being made during the administration of Captain Ollie Reed.

Before the review he was enter­tained at luncheon by Mr. Ryder, mem­bers of the Faculty Council, and the Military Department.

For the first time since the Colonel has inspected the Drexel unit, fair weather permitted outside drills and ceremonies on the Athletic Field. He complimented Major McCulloch on the good facilities provided for drill and expressed great satisfaction with the appearance of the men and the progress of the drills.

The usual drill routine was carried out with slight variation. One feature of the afternoon was inspection of the various platoons by Lieutenants Kelly and Nelson for the best drilled and the best appearing platoon. The Fourth Platoon under command of Lieutenant Reed Heckman was rated the best drilled platoon and the Tenth Platoon under the command of Lieut. Robert Spencer carried off the honors as the best appearing platoon in the unit.

Col. Deems is R. O. T. C. officer, su­pervisor and inspector of all of the R. O. T. C. units of the Corps which in­cludes the District of Columbia, Mary­land, Pennsylvania and Virginia. With­in this area are forty units of the vari­ous branches of the service such as the Infantry, Engineers, Signal Corps, Coast Artillery, Field Artillery, Cavalry, Ordi­nance Department and Medical Depart­ment.

CURTIS ADVISES EIGHT HOURS SLEEP

Mr. Ryder has seen to it tha t CyrusH. K. Curtis’ views on sleep have been brought to the notice of the student body. A great many students looked a t the bulletin board and wondered at them. Mr. Curtis says tha t no matter how late you go to bed you should sleep a t least eight hours. Obviously this can’t be done a t Drexel.

The question, “How much can a stu­dent sleep,” has arisen. If each class period required two hours of home­work, then each student would have to study past midnight every evening. It isn’t and can’t be done.

“ When you have studied five or six hours— stop,” says Mr. Ryder. This line was written beside the article and it forced some amusement and ironical “yehs”. Mr. Ryder, however, sees the futility of the two hour per class plan. He wants Drexel students to balance their study so tha t they can get the proper amount of sleep.

Mr. Curtis has reaped the full bene- fltg of sleep. Although nearly eighty, be is la good health and going strong.

believes tha t under-rMt and not over-work puts people out of the game early. ^

Miss Rose Baker, assistant Home Economics professor, was installed as President of the Philadelphia Dietitians’ Association, Tuesday evening, November 13, at the Philadelphia Grade and Con­tinuation School. At this meeting, sev­eral prominent people in the educa­tional world spoke on the subjects— “The School,” “The Home Economics’ Laboratory” and “The School Cafeteria.” The speakers were Miss Ruth Sill, prin­cipal of the school; Dr. Henrietta Cal- vere. Doctor of Home Economics of the Philadelphia Board of Public Education, and Miss Erma Smedley.

Miss Baker received a Bachelor of Science degree at the Kansas State Agri­cultural College and a Master of Arts at the University of Chicago. For some time she was employed in the Y. w ; C. A. at Tulsa, Oklahoma. She taught in the Washburn College cafe­teria in Topeka, Kansas, and after leav­ing here, operated a tea-room in Chi­cago. She has occupied many other minor positions. She came to Drexel with invaluable experience and she is one of the most important people in Drexel, as any of the student house girls can tell you, recognizing the fact that she is supervisor of the dining room. All the students are proud of the honor that this prominent Philadel­phia Association has conferred upon her.

The Faculty Council on Athletics, recognizing the duties tha t must be a t­tended to with the coming of a new and prosperous athletic era to Drexel, has appointed Mr. William J. Stevens as Graduate Manager of Athletics. We feel sure tha t this is a wise move, for Mr. Stevens has the ability to flnancially manage the various teams tha t the school sponsors.

The evening of November 21st was the occasion of an exceedingly inspira­tional dinner conference of the Faculty Student Government Advisory Board and Officers and the Student House Board of the W. S. G. A.. The guests were first entertained at a delicious dinner in the student dining room and this was followed by an informal friendly discussion of student problems.

The Faculty Board representatives included Miss Dorsey, Chairman, Miss Godfrey, Miss Law, Dr. Stratton, Prof. Altmaier and Mr. Ryder. Mrs. Stratton and Mrs. Altmaier were guests. The students were represented by the offi­cers of Women’s Student Government: Sally Baxter, President; Dot William­son, Vice President; Florence Loftus, Secretary; Blanche Ball, Treasurer; the Chairman of the Social Committee, Georgia Sherred; the Chairman of the Student Advisory Committee, Kay Clark; and the members of the Student House Board: Anne Williams, Chair­man; Dorothy McCall, Louise Anderson, Ruby Anderson, Bertha Lugan, Harriet Powell, and Myrta Probasco.

Interest evolved around, first; the relations between faculty and students, and second; the elements that might be included in a possible new code dealing with the question of student honor.

There was a mutual feeling that the associationt between faculty and stu ­dents are valuablet The Boards felt the worth of this connection, particu­larly outside of the classroom. It was suggested tha t the source of this condi­tion is the high schools. In other words, it seems possible and probable tha t each incoming class enters college instilled with a feeling of fear or awe of the faculty. The serious part of It is tha t this condition seems to be de­veloping rapidly in the preparatory schools. The students should realise tha t the faculty are eager and willing to encourage freer oo-operation. Students should not Judge by a seemingly aus-

K.\1»PA SIO KRXEF.ACTORS WIN RECOCJMTION

The Kappa Sigs have a sponsor. Mias Sally Seldomridge was named to that honor at the dance given by the Frater­nity on Saturday, Nov. 3rd, as a small measure of thanks for the many things she has done for them. The presenta­tion, accompanied by a large bouquet of roses was made by President Jackson.

The proffer came as a complete sur­prise to Sally. The plans for this occa­sion had been made a week or two be­fore but had been kept a strict secret. She was speechless for the moment, but recovered to make a graceful accept­ance. Immediately the orchestra struck lip the Kappa Sig Song and soon the house was ringing with the voices of the boys.

The custom of having sponsors is very new at Drexel. In any other schools all fraternities and clubs have them. It is the one way open for an organization of men to do public honor to a woman who has been active In their l)ehalf. The Kappa Sigs expect to make the position a permanent one in their organization, the incumbent to be elected annually.

Chairman Blanche Ball has given out word that the Y. W. C. A. campaign will be extended until the end of this term. A new plan is being put into effect this year. Membership hereafter will be for the duration of the member’s stay in Drexel and yearly dues will be assessed. Membership cards will be issued by the National Y. W. C. A. and will soon be here. These constitute national member­ship and will be acceptable anywhere. This eliminates the annoyance of re­joining every year and also of conduct­ing a campaign every year.

The following have been appointed to conduct the present campaign in their respective houses: Bert Lugan, 3315; Dot Hind, 3309-11; Helen Rush, 3420; Blanche Pall, 216; Kay Clark, 214; and Betty Lippard will take care of the commuters. The membership fee is one dollar.

Munsey Gleaton, the “Y” Student Secre­tary, whom you all know or should know, is planning various and sundry joint affairs between the Y. M. and the Y. W. He hasn’t divulged any details about these yet, so we can’t say much except that they will undoubtedly be good. Admittance to these affairs will depend on your being a member, so don’t fail to join.

We do know, however, that there is an­other dance, like the Purple Spot of last year, being planned for in the near fu­ture.

ST. JOE DOWNS DRAGONS WHU.E 7,0D0_WATCH

Leo Redmond Makes Spectacular Dash in Closing Minutes of

“Jinx” Battle

DRAGONS FIGHT HARD

TKA F’O lt LITTLE SISTERH PROVES SUCCESSFUL

The “ big” and “ little” sister party which was given on November 20 was a success due to the efforts of Cynthia Metzger and Janet Letchworth. Miss Dorsey was the chaperone.

It was an informal affair which af­forded a splendid opportunity for the girls to become better acquainted. A vlctrola was in evidence. The young ladles with “boy” written on a slip of paper were the partners for the girls. Bertha Pilchard and Mildred Odiorne won the prize for the best dancers. Bach

little” sister was delighted wltb a little gift from her “big” sister. Punch was served during the course of the afternoon.

The powerful Jinx from St. Joe’s, for the sixth consecutive time, has snared the mighty Dragon in his lair. For the second time this season the well laid plans of the Blue and Gold have gone amiss. It was inconceivable tha t the strong Drexel line should yield as it did. Coupled with short passes the Crimson and Gray marched down the field before a crowd of seven thousand people for two touchdowns, one more than the Dragons were able to tally. While it was a severe blow to the Drexel pride, the team did its best to close the season with a victory. The Dragons received by far the smaller part of the penalties and played fighting football in the pinches.

The final period proved to be the thriller, for Leo Redmond Intercepted a pass on his three-yard line and dashed u2 yards before he was finally stopped. It was then that passes began to fly and one minute before the final whistle sounded it seemed that defeat would be turhed to victory. But with this un­welcome defeat, Drexel has the one con­solation of knowing the St. Joe’s goal line has been fro.'^sed this year, some­thing that has never been done in the past by Drexel. The Dragons faced a powerful team, both physical and fight­ing. and gave a battle that St. Joseph’s will long remember.

The Triangle extends to each man on the squad its sincere congratulations for the splendid work that has been done this season, and may this open feud be climaxed in a different manner next year. The team, in its crippled way, has given its all on Saturday to fill the cup of victory to the brim, but as the poet Burns would say, “The best laid schemes o’ coaches and teams gang aft agley.”

DRAGONS HONORED [BY RECOGNITION FROM A.

J. DREXEL PAUL

Drexel’s football season has come to a glorious climax, with a record of which the greatest of teams can boast. The custom at this time of tbe ye^r is to tender the team a banquet^' ap­preciation of their work, which has been exceptional this year.

Mr. Drexel Paul, being a membeV of the Board of Trustees, was extended an invitation to be present and iq his, let­ter of acceptance to Mr. Ryder he Con­gratulated the team, as follows: “

“ I saw the game against Haverford Saturday, and I was greatly impressed by the team’s all round ability, ioot- ball knowledge and a le r tn e ss^ in fact, it’s a ‘grand* team.” •

The Triangle—Oar CreedWe believe in Drexel, its traditions and aims.We believe in school organizations that support the

school but not for their own gain.We believe the students should have more influence in

affairs concerning their school, with the privilege of ex- pre.ssing their unbiased views.

We believe tha Triangle should serve to unite the Faculty and Student Body toward a fulfillment of one grand aim— achievement.

EDITORIALLY SPEAKING

Students!— Fight for More MooreDrexel Institute is becoming more prominent dally, and

one of the chief instruments in attaining this enviable reputa­tion is the success of the football team this season. Since Drexel has risen to a prominent place in the athletic world, a brief analogy of this forward step should be taken.

To begin with, this winning team has been developed in two years under the coaching of three men, namely, Halas, Moore, and Repscha. While Halas is heading the coaching staff, the writer feels that a great part of the success of the team is due to the assistance of Coaches Moore and Repscha. It has been authentically stated by the captain of Muhlen­berg’s team, that the best line they have faced this year was that of the Dragons. To Coach Moore goes the entire credit for the development of this line.

Without the assistance of an able line, the work of the backfleld would have been impossible. It has been rumored that should Coach Moore leave Drexel a severe blow will.be struck to the winning stride of the Dragons. Something should be done to keep Moore on the coaching staff. Dickin­son wants him—doesn’t that show his worth? There should be ample funds in the athletic treasury (as each student Is assessed twenty dollars yearly, for which he receives about two dollars and ninety-eight cents in return) to pay Moore a salary that will keep him at Drexel.

Drexel wants a winning team, and the coaching staff as it now stands is producing something that it has not done In the past. Why start all over with a new line coach, and probably play in a slump until the new organization starts functioning? The T b ia n o u d extends a plea to the student body to voice their opinions on the subject. This is called to your attention as food for thought. N. P. W.

A t Last!The Men’s Student Council, in reply to the article appear­

ing in this paper on November 14, regarding this organization, wish to express their deep feeling of appreciation to the T u i a n u l e for their deep and sincere interest in Drexel, Drexel Organizations and Drexel Life.

Through this medium we feel that the Men Students may be educated to the aims and purposes of its Council and thus have their raging curiosity satisfied.

The Men’s Student Council is organized for the purpose of providing an effective means of communication between undergraduate body and the faculty; to Interpret and main­tain student traditions and customs; to exercise a general supervision over student activities and all class elections; to furnish a body of representative men who shall crystallize and make effective the earnest views of the undergraduate opin­ions.

The powers of the Student Council are: To make rules and regulations affecting customs, elections, celebrations and all matters not under control of the Athletic Association or provided for by Institute authority. Decide any dispute re­ferred to it by a student or an undergraduate organization.

All organizations (in which men students participate) wishing to be recognized as Institute organizations must sub­mit their Constitutions to the Student Council for approval.

The Men’s Student Council thus has the supervising power over all men’s organizations that are recognized in the college. The students have their voice in the direction of school affairs by voicing their opinions and desires to the Student Council. The Council then acts upon this request and discerns the true opinion of the student body, and if any change Is to be made to existing conditions, which are in the Council’s power, proper steps will be taken to change the existing fault. If it is a matter which In its nature must come before the Faculty Council it is referred to this Council for Its action, with the recommendation of the Student Council.

It is the personal obligation of the classes to instruct their representatives of any action or custom that they wish to establish, or have changed in any way for the betterment of the School’s Organization. It is the personal obligation of the individual student to present to this group such sugges­tions that he may have for the better organization of the life of his Alma Mater. In this way the eyes and opinions of the aggregate body are assembled in one body for action to the best Interests of the whole.

Thus the Student Council serves a worthy, high, and responsible position in the life of the undergraduate body. They are always glad to hear any one on any subject relative to the college life and In the best of their judgments act accord­ing to their power.

This in brief will bring to you the purpose and aims of the Student Council, and every member of the Student Body should feel a personal responsibility to this organization because it Is only a body that Is representative of the indi* viduaJ men of the Student Body.

Student OpinionTo the Editor:

In the October 31st issue of the T r i a n o l e , D. W. called for any article cussing or discussing hazing, so the writer wishes to put in his bit of affirmative discussion.

In the first place, hazing tends to weld the freshman class into a strong unit, for the sorely tried must unite and become one to overcome the source of their embarrassment. Now the primary purpose of college is to build men and leaders of men; but it has been truthfully said by the ancients that “He who would command legions must first learn to command himself”, and the first rule of leadership is discipllBe. The enforcement of freshman regrulations teaches the first lessons in discipline and brings about the realization of social in* feriority, but does not limit the personal activities of the individual freshman.

The dignity of the freshman is not necessarily circum* scribed by the application and enforcement of the customary first year restrictions. But rather is his transition from prep school to a college community enhanced by the mild rigidity of such rules, inasmuch as his more or less superarro- gant conception of life, which he has almost invariably formu­lated during his high school years, is altered to one not of inferiority, but of equality.

Without this change would he not be overbearing? With it and as a result of it, is he not a better man?

In parting, the writer wishes to suggest that the Tribunal System be used to mete out Justice to those obstreperous freshmen who are constantly jumping out of bounds, and also to those who tend to carry hazing to the extremes. This system has been used for years at the leading schools of the country. A few of those using it are Princeton, Penn, Dickin­son, Bucknell, and Lehigh. These schools are far from back­ward, yet supervised hazing is encouraged. What is to pre­vent the Drexel Student Council from sitting as a tribune to try cases and determine punishments? I t certainly is not overburdened with duties now.

S. KENNirrH Tysow, President Sophomore Class.

To the Editor:Although now an “Industry exile”, I have become ac­

quainted through the columns of the T r i a n g l e with the sug­gestion that Drexel students erect a community center, across the street from the school. Permit me to cite five benefits which I believe would come from such a building.

First, the fellows who bring their lunches could have a cool and comfortable place in which to eat, instead of the hot and usually overcrowded locker-room.

Second, the clubs could have rooms in which to hold meet­ings.

Third, a space could be cleared off for informal dancing at the noon hours.

Fourth, the Y. W. and Y. M. C. A.’s could have a “base of operations” and serve the students to a much greater de­gree.

Fifth, the erection and use of a building, planned and paid for by the students themselves, would develop college spirit at Drexel and make for a sense of unity. Furthermore, It would be pleasing to our generous friends to know that the students have a little backbone of their own.

The Men’s Student Council might give a little of their ample leisure time to plans for this most excellent project.

Last, but not least, the students will look to the T r i a n g l e to keep the progress of the suggestion before them, and to boost it in every way.

J a m e s D. W y g a n t , ’31.

W restlingDuring the winter we have only one sport at Drexel,

narmely, basketball. A very small percentage of the students can take part in this sport; so why not have some other sport also? With our new gym we should have ample opportunity to practice such a sport as wrestling. We could have inter­class competition during the first winter or so, and then if we developed some stars, as we surely would, we could en­gage in intercollegiate tournaments. This would be of little cost to the Institute, and at the same time would give the students some much needed activity in sports. Think it over.

Old Curiosity CornerAchenbach saw struggling humanity and waved his magic

paint brush.Here was Moonlit Santa Lucia, dock of old Naples the

boiling cauldron of the unholy city. On it was the life of the streets. Even night gave it no peace. Beneath a large arch, a crowd sought, sold and wrangled. Young girls shouted their wares beside old hags. There was no self-respect, no order. The whole quay set up a din of hooting steamers, ringing cow and goat bells, and the bellowing of the squalid mob.

Yet Achenbach saw that this scene was meant to be beauti­ful. Nature had given it the sea, the moon, and distant Vesuvius. It was dignity looking at indignity; majesty marred by a pen of wild cats. Achenbach saw the mistake. Prolonged stays in the mountains of Switzerland, Bavaria, and Northern Italy had made him sensitive to Nature’s grandeurs He knew and loved them. The strife of Santa Lucia tor­mented him. He saw struggling humanity and waved his magic paint brush.

With the wave of that brush, icy calmness gripped fever- ish Sw ta Lucia. All that had been air became glass and all that had been noise became quiet. The whole scene was chang^ into a prism of clear solid crystal. Then Achenbach painted it.mu aspects stood out when the mob was silenced.That is the manner in which they were painted.

The much-heralded Philadelphia season of the Theatre Guild is Anally under way. The first of their four plays was “The Guardsman”, a comedy in three acts b$ Ferenc Molnar. It is certainly a comedy, and no one could miss guessing that. Molnar i t the playwright responsible for it, but it required the cleTerness of a writer like the author to drag the thing out to three acts. I t is a debatable ques tion whether a man’s seducing his own wife is sulBcient situation for any play. Molnar, however, with his usual failing for such subjects, succeeded in writing a good, two-hour, three-act play, instead of choosing to produce what might have been a much better one-act play.

The only charm that Molnar has for us is his ability to write exceedingly, but superficially clever lines, and to make a play out of virtually nothing. Both of these abilities are displayed to perfection in “The Guardsman". They were dis­played equally well in “The Play’s the Thing”, which played here last season. “The Play’s the Thing” had a little more substance to it, but not much.

The Theatre Guild did the playwright more than Justice, as they quite often do. Their presentation left nothing to be de­sired. Alfred Lunt finds the role of "The Guardsman” one very much to his liking, and since he plays it as though he enjoys it, tK? audience enjoys it too. Lynn Pontanne gives a charming picture of the romantic young wife that plays Chopin In the springtime. The other five members of the cast are excellent.

“The Guardsman” was a most enjoyable evening, but thinking of it later, It seems criminal to spend a whole evening listen­ing to such airy, nonsensical nothingness as Molnar usually writes. Nevertheless, we hope “Olympia” arrives In Philadel­phia before the end of the season.

• « *After reading on the program that some

two million copies of “Dracula” have been sold, we assume with perfect justice that everyone, or at least half that many, have read it. Consequently, we advise you not to go see the play. If you didn’t read the hair-mising story, you will prob­ably get thrills and chills from the play. It is, of course, much inferior to Stoker’s rather good mystery story, but that still allows it to be a fair play of the “thriller” type.

The men who wrote the lines for the stage were so obviously after the effect achieved that one is apt to become tired of tremulo-ed voices, and long-winded dis­cussions of the technique of the “undead”. And then, moving chairs and flying bats do not tend to give one an impression of realism, no matter how skillfully they may be done. The actors, all of whom, again according to program, seem to have played their parts at least a thousand times, range from good to punk. Bernard Jukes’ portrayal of the madman was a difficult part well handled. Edward Van Sloan as Dr. VanHelsing, and Raymond Huntley as Dracula were excellent, but most of the rest need a few thousand more performances before they can make us forget they are on the stage.

But If you wish to take your mind away from caiculus or quantity cookery tor a few hours, wander down to the Broad. Oh, but I forgot—you probably will not be able to get in. For “Dracula”, of course, is playing to packed houses.

The Drexel hockey team tied Rosemont College Hockey team Wednesday, Nov­ember 14th to a 3-3 score. Those star­ring for Drexel were Mary Stone and Peg Jones, making the forward line strong, and Cynthia Metzger and Aud­rey Rust, the halfbacks 'playing into their hands.

This was an exciting game which at the end of the first half had a score |of 2-2, the goals being made by Metz- *ger and Jones. Shortly after the begin- liing of the last half G. Mattison made a goal for Drexel which was followed >y one by Dives of Rosemont.

Redecoration and Alter­ation of Aaditorinm

Nears EndWalls Redecorated in Two Tones of

“Biscuit”— Woodworic and D oon Reflnlshed. Indirect Lighting,

New Stage Arrangement

The extensive alterations of the audi­torium are nearing completion. The work now being done includes a complete re­decoration following, as a finishing touch, the enlarged stage, finished last spring, and the new acoustic treatment installed during the summer Just passed.

Beautiful new lighting fixtures of the Indirect type have been installed, replac­ing the antiquated brass affairs so long an eyesore to the esthetlcally minded. Mr. Ryder’s pet abhorrence, the peculiar green walls, have been covered with a very pleasing two-toned effect in a shade known as "BIsquit”. All of the wood­work of the windows and doors has been reflnlshed to match that of the new or­gan, which is a decided Improvement.

On the stage, many Improvements of especial interest to the Dramatists have been wrought. A very flne set of Klleg footlights, and suspended border lights will permit color effects never before pos­sible a t Drexel. A new arrangement for suspending scenery is now being planned. Three switch panels, from which all of the electrical equipment will be control­led, are also in the proces of installation.

All of this should give added impetus to the efforts of the Dramatic Club. Something very flne is to be expected of them in the near future.

DRAGON DANCE COLORFUL AFFAIR

The cafeteria was the scene of a "gold and blue” dance on Saturday night, Nov­ember 24th, which was given by the Delta Sigma Epsilon sorority In honor of the Drexel Dragons. The room was very cleverly decorated In blue and yel­low crepe paper. The lights were cov­ered with blue paper and had yellow dragons on them, while the tables held yellow dragons and blue candle-sticks.

It was a very gala scene, and a four- piece colored orchestra put the finishing touch to the gayety of it all. Every­one had a marvelous time and they all went home sober in spite of the dough­nuts and cider.

DELTA SIGMEA EPSILON INITIATES ’ TWO

The Delta Sigma Epsilon held a very important meeting on Tuesday evening, November 13. Two new girls were ad­mitted Into the sorority; Congetta Fes- cina and Alice Strudwick. The awe­inspiring initiation was followed by a social to which both members and pledges were invited.

Those of importance who were pres­ent were Miss Crawley, the sponsor; Mrs. Altmaier, the patroness; and an Alumni from Colorado, Mrs. Craig.

The success of the meeting was due to the serving of cider, pretzels and ginger snaps.

Eighth Victory Roils Haverford

Hughes Nets Score in First Quarter, Cardoni Breaks Tie in Third

Quarter, L. Redmond Scores Final Touch­

down

JOHNSON AND HUGHES STAR

The three coaches of the football staff, namely: Halas, Moore, and Rep- scha, have again been rewarded with success in another football encounter. On Walton Field, at Haverford, the Blue and Gold warriors of the gridiron hurled a stinging defeat Into the face of the Scarlet and Black to the tune of 19-7. For the eighth time this season the Dragons have dealt defeat, but in no case was keener resentment felt than by the Haverford crowd. Their un­willingness to give up the lost ball, and guarding the goal posts with police were indications of their feelings.

Captain Heckman won the toss and chose to receive. The Dragons played a very conservative game in the first half, letting Haverford spend their en­ergy before the final onslaught. L. Redmond passed to Neely for 25 yards, and Ed Hughes skirted left end for 6 yards and a touchdown, netting the first score of the game. Haverford returned the compliment when Tripp broke loose for 60 yards and Kingham the final 4 yards for a touchdown. Both teams were able to tally the extra point via dropkicks.

The second quarter found both teams playing about even, each completing one out of three passes and being forced to punt three times. The penalties were unevenly divided. Drexel receiving 65 yards to Haverford’s 30 yards. John­son and Hughes were conspicuous for their brilliant playing, though every man was giving his all to uphold his Alma Mater.

The third quarter found Drexel more determined to break the tie, and as a result Hughes passed to Cardoni for30 yards, netting a touchdown. Haver­ford was unable to make any substan­tial gains through our lines and four of their passes were intercepted, one by Neely and Grace and two by L. Red­mond. Practically all of the playing was done, in the last half, in Haver­ford’s territory. The third score of the game came in the fourth quarter when Hughes passed to L. Redmond back of the goal line.

Drexel completed 3 out of 8 passes, Haverford 3 out of 13. We fumbled 2, Haverford 1. Each team made 5 first downs. The Dragons were penalized 90 yards to Haverford’s 65. About five 'hundred Drexel followers were at the game and did much to keep up the fighting spirit of the team. Drexel is solidly in back of the team this year and by the enviable record they have set, the spirit will be long unshaken.

Drexel Band Executes New Tricks

Dick Lnckenbach Proves to be Good Drum Major. Band Forms an

and a Under His Direction

Drexel's big Band was very much in evidence at the game out at Haverford. They were on the scene early playing away quite merrily when we (editorial­ly) arrived. While their repertoire seems not to be so extensive, they are not lack­ing in willingness, and play what they know loudly and frequently.

The really high step in their per­formance came In the interval between the halves. They marched up the field in a nicely kept alignment and halted facing the Haverford stands. Then, after a series of baffling convolutions there evolved an “H,” which seemed to please the Haverford rooters muchly. In this formation they played the Gar­net’s song, the Haverfordians following in somewhat feeble voices. The Band then faced about, and at the tweet of Drum-major Lukenbach’s whistle, changed the “H” to a “D.” Drexel’s vocalization of the fight song then played was even weaker than Haver­ford’s. •

The musicians then got back into their regular formation somehow and retired. During the second half they broke forth in music at frequent inter­vals, in fact, so enthusiastic were they, that, on one occasion at least, they had to be silenced almost forcibly so that the signals of little Eddie could be heard.

REPSCHA TOO DESERVES CREDIT

The past few weeks have shown us wliat a valuable man is to be had In Jack Moore. Dickinson College is try­ing to secure his services as head coach for next year.

Jack Moore and Albert Repscha de­serve a large measure of credit for the long string of victories of the Dragons. Moore is the man who is largely respon­sible for the staunch line tha t has turned back the charges of our foes and who is now demanded by another college. Repscha has rendered invalu­able aid in moulding the backfield tha t has galloped across many a goal line this season.

Jack Moore started his football ca­reer at Mt. St. Mary’s near Frederick, Maryland, as a guard. From there he graduated to Villanova where he was a varsity end for three years. After leaving Villanova Jack was employed for a time as athletic director a t Mal­vern Prep.

Moore has been at Drexel for the past two years as assistant coach. His success a t instilling the flne points of plunging and blocking in the boys is self-evident. He it is who produced the line that stopped Muhlenberg.

Ai Repscha came upon his football education at the University of Maine. While there he displayed a more than average ability as a halfback. He has been at Drexel a number of years in the double capacity of instructor in Mechanical Engineering and as backfleld coach. His work shows up in the won­derful teamwork and driving power dis­played this year.

R. O. T. C. DRILL COMMENDED BY COL. DEEMH

(Continued from. Page 1)

The Colonel has had an extremely In­teresting and distinguished career In the army. Coming from a military family he was educated at West Point and grad­uated from there in the Class of 1900. Before the war he had seen considerable foreign service including a tour of Hawaii and there made an enviable rec­ord by commanding the best battery of the Field Artillery In the United States Army as determined by a Board of Offi­cers of the War Department. During the war he participated in three major engagements with a regiment of Field Artillery which he himself organized. At the time of the Armistice, he com­manded a Field Artillery Brigade and had the war continued would have re­ceived his star as Brigadier General. At the present time Col. Deems is R. O. T. C. officer of the .Third Corps Area and Staff Officer of Major General Sla- den. He wears many decorations In­cluding the highly prized Distinguished Service Medal.

The written report on the Drexel R.0. T. C. units as a result of the inspec­tion last Tuesday will be awaited with great interest as constant progress must be maintained in order to gain favor­able comments compared with other units.

.MRS MATHKSON SPEAKH TO HOME EOOXO>IICS CLl'B

On Wednesday evening, November 14, the Home Economics Club held a meet­ing. Mrs. Matheson was the speaker and her topic of conversation was Rus­sia. She treated the subjects of the Russian people, their dress, customs, and education. The treatment that Mrs. Matheson and her party received from the hands of the Russian people who acted as their guides was very cor­dial.

The Home Economics Club has a very interesting program planned for the en­tire year and judging from this last one I am sure the others will be of equal interest to the students.

W. 8. G. A. EXECUTIVES DISCUSS PROBLEMS WITH FACULTY

(Continued from Page 1) tere professor that may greet them In the classroom.

There was an earnest discussion of the problem of academic honor. Per­mit us to say that the Faculty Board were warm In their praise of the honor code at Drexel In comparison with many other institutions. It Is mutually recog­nized that there Is a laxity of honor in homework. When students permit themselves to use the work that someone spent hours completing, they are com­mitting as great a wrong as cheating in an examination and their conduct is subject to the same treatment.

There is a need for a new interpreta­tion of the regulations of the W. S. G. A. in the classroom during examinations. Note! Absolutely ^o conversation is al­lowed during an examination. This rule will be rigidly enforced during the coming final exams and the Faculty and Student Boards are confident tha t all students will realize the Importance of this regulation.

The Boards felt the need to find ways of putting this spirit of co-operation to work to the good of the school.

“STUXT NITE” WELL ATTENDED

The students of 214 N. 33rd Street, on Thursday evening, November 5, gave their annual “ stunt night” in order to raise money for the purpose of giving a Christmas party to some poor family In the city. The program consisted of a circus, a mock wedding, a boy-scout drill and several other humorous selec­tions. After the show, sandwiches and candy were sold. The affair was well advertised at the student houses and the girls feel that it was well worth their while.

Glo Tnrat Sports WriterDISCUSSES THAT l»-7 VICTORY

The Drexel Dragons of the Schuylkill and points west visited the elite of the Main Line at Walton Field on the six­teenth.

The teams appeared on the field “ 400 strong’’ but the lure of the bench be­came too strong and soon there were but 25 men on the field including a Secret Service man, an orator and an anarchist.

Tripp, the Cold Cream Beauty of the Haverford team, shone for the hosts of the day. He had more bows for the ladles than there were caps on the field and there were plenty of the latter.

The cheer-leaders went through a type of football prevalent on the cam­puses of Bryn Mawr and Vassar.

The Band, “with machine-like pre­cision,” executed (?) an infinity sign followed by a zero. The score was one up in favor of the dog (Tripp’s under­study).

When Barr went in the game Haver- ford protested and claimed tha t they should put in three men.

The Band played the Drexel marching song while the Rah! Rah! section sang da, da, dum.

The goal posts became the objective of the enthused Drexel boys but they were also the center of attraction for numerous township police. Such is the arm of the law that the goal posts still stand, with a record of no defeats for the entire season.

Main line prices prevailed. $1.00 to see a football game tha t boasted of but three reporters and two photographers.

The main question throughout the game was to whom the ball belonged— Redmond, Hughes, Tripp, or the referee.
