Matrnen Are Hard To Beat Stillwater, Okla.—In eight years E. C. Gallagher has coached the wrestling team of Oklahoma A. and M. college to 50 consecutive victories in dual meets. This season the Aggies defeat- ed Missouri, West Virgiiiia and Cornell in addition to southwest- ern teams. They entered the na- tional intercollegiate tournament in Columbus, Ohio, March 29 and 30 to match holds with teams from all sections of the country. Never has the A. and M. team been beaten in a dual meet since they lost twice on a road trip in 1920. They won four individual championships at the intercolleg- iate tournament last year. Earl McCready of Aumlet, Sas- katcshewan, Canada, a member of the Canadian (‘lympic wrest- ling team last year, is captain- elect of the Aggies’ 1930 team.

The game at this stage look- ed like a victory for the yearling outfit but the ninth inning saw the visitors score two runs to put them in the lead in the first half of the inning but Martin, Blue with a triple in their half of the final inning and later came in to tie up the affair in the final in- ning. The game went on into an ex- tra inning affair with both teams playing airtight ball and neither being able to tally in the first (Continued on Page Four). AirsfiA“wai'ds Being Offered, President of Aircraft Com- pany Giving Scholarship To College Men. ‘Colorado Springs, Colo.—As a result of an unusual amount of collegiate interest in the Alex- andcr Eaglerock Awards for 1929, both an Eaglerock airplane and an aeronautical scholarship will be awarded this year to college students, according to an "an- nouncement by J. Don Alexander, head of the Alexander Aircraft company here. Contestants are now asked to specify whether they are compet- ing for the Eaglerock or the four- year university scholarship. The scholarship has been established in the Daniel Guggenheim School of Aeronautics at New York Uni- versity . Foui; short papers on aeronau- tics, written as briskly and con- taining as many practical ideas as possible, are required of the competing students. The manu- scripts must be submitted to the Committee on Awards before May 31. Prof. Alexander Klemin, head of the Guggenheim school at New York University, is chairman of the committee which will select the successful candidate for the scholarship. A second committee, composed of prominent Colorado educators, aeronautical engineers and pilots of the Alexander Air- oraft Company, will award the Eaglerock. The awards will be made June 1. The contest is intended to in- terest American college students in commercian aviation, now rated ninth in the ranks of American industries. W. A. PLUMMER Coach Bauer To Send Men Against Princeton Monday Advertising is Subject at Only Local Appearance of Debaters. The Washington and Lee debat- ing team, coached by Professor Marvin G. Bauer, head of the de- partment of public speaking, will make its only local appearance, ‘Monday night at 7:30 in Lee Chap- el. Their opponents will be the Princeton team, and the question is .Resolved: that national adver- tising as now carried on is both socially and economically harm- ful. The question is of present interest, both from the commercial and social angles. There are several features which will make the debate of unusual interest. The voting will be done by the audience, and an open for- um discussion will be held after- wards. The Washington and Lee team is prepared by a new meth- od, not to use regular and pre- pared speeches, but to go into the debate ready for whatever arguments may be advanced by the opposition. This will add greatly to the interest of the de- bate, according to W. A. Plum- mer, manager of the Washington and Lee team. Due to the fact that the de- bate will be carried on in this interesting fashion and that it [will be over in time for the sec- ond show, a record crowd is ex- _ pected. \ Only Appearance Here This debate with Princeton is the only one which will be staged here this year, in pursuance of a new policy which h s been a- dopted by the debating council. This new scheme is to get larger and better’ known schools here for debates, rather than bring a larger number of smaller colleges, despite the fact that the number of local debates is reduced. As the ability of Washington and Lee teams has been proved in the past it is thought better to lessen the number of appearances and in- crease the prestige by compet- ing with better teams. This debate with Princeton will be published in the Intercollegiate Debaters’ annual, which is a ref- erence work compiling the best college debates for use by debat- ing societies and schools all over the country. This is the second Washington and Lee debate to be so honored, and is indicative of the increased prestige and abil- ity of the local teams. The debate with the English team held last year was given first place in the book. Regular court reporters will take down the speeches this year and each member of the compet- ing teams will receive a compli- mentary copy when the book comes off the press. Outlook Promising The previous record of the men on each team indicates exception- al strength. The members of the Washnig- ton and Lee team and their rec- ords are as follows: R. O. Morrow, of the class of 1930, is a member of the Arcades club. He has been a member of the team for two years and com- peted in the Florida debate held here last year. He also made the trip to Washington and Maryland with the team last year and has (Continued on Page Four).

In the recent cigarette test made at the University, OLD GoLDs were- chosen by the students as the best. The cigarettes were masked by . black labels so that the names of the brands were concealed. Each label was numbered. _ This was judged to be the most sporting Way of testing the merits of the four leading brands. Some 208 Yale students were asked to smoke the four disguised brands without knowing their identity. The four leading cigarettes . . . “Masked” with paper sleeves to conceal their brand names. They were merely to choose, by number, the one that was most appealing to the taste. The NEWS supervised the test on January 18 at various fraternity houses and in the NEWS oflice. When the votes were recorded it was discovered that OLD GOLD (Cigarette No. 3) had won. Old Gold was given 63 first choices, which was 11 per cent ahead of Cigarette N 0. 2, 34 per cent ahead of Cigarette No. 1, and 53 per cent ahead of Cigarette No. 4. Q ‘ mP.'.uni1ua Co..
