Washington and Lee will be faced with a curtailed Finals or with a set of “scrip” dances if the present unprecedented cam- pus attitude is maintained. Three hundred and fifty men have so far failed to contribute their share. These men will be interviewed next Tuesday for the fourth and last time by members of the Finals finance committee, George Lanier, president of Fin- als, said yesterday. “This is absolutely the drive,” Lanier stated. “We have seen some men thre and four times. A budget of $8,000 is our minimum, and we have at present $4,300 in the bank. If Washing- ton and Lee has fallen to the point of “scrip” dances, or an or- dinary ball with a couple of infor- mals, in place of the brilliant Finals for which the University is noted, this fact will be made apparent in the next few days.” Non-Contributors Barred. “So far this year over a third of the student body has failed to contribute,” Lanier added. “If necessary, Finals officials will stand guard at the door for every dance to admit only those students who have done their share.

The Easter dances of Washing- ton and Lee will commence Fri- day night in Doremus gymnasium immediately after the “13” club banquet. The first dance of this set is sponsored by the “13” club and the figure will be lead by W. B. Harrington. The Cotillion club dance will follow on Saturday night. The figure will be lead by Peyton Bush. Kay Kyser and his orchestra will play for these dances. Kyser is popular with Washington and Lee students and it is expected that a large number of dancers will attend both of these dances. This is the first time that the Easter dances have not come near Easter Sunday. The reason for the postponement was to get a larger number of people to at- tend the dances. For this reason a larger crowd than usual is ex- pected. ______o_____ H istorv Repeats Itself As Snow Falls on Mount History came near repeating itself here this year when snow fell yesterday in the vicinity of Lexington. Last year on election day the campus was visited with a snow and sleet storm. Yester- day snow fell on both House and North mountains, but as yet no flakes fell on the campus. Students are wondering if snow will fall on the day of election this year. In spite fo the heavy sleet and light snow more votes were cast last year than ever before in the history of the university. All candidates are wondering if snow or beautiful weather will bring forth anothgr election record.

ALL UNOPPOSED MEN GET GOOD MAJORITY Powell Gets Most Votes With 770 Of 789 Cast; Wagner Beats Sanders. All former records were smashed today in the gen- eral elections when a total of 789 -votes were cast. This surpasses all former records by one vote. Last year saw a new record when 788 bal- lots ‘were polled. All unopposed candidates were elected and all contest- ed positions found a mapority cast for one man. ~ Bill Davis, of Bristol, Tennes see, will be the next editor of the Ring-tum Phi with Bill Sugg, un- opposed candidate, becoming busi- ness manager. Sutherland won out over Groop, winning by a two hundred ma- jority. Van Gilbert was successful in defeating Stanley Hampton for leader of the next Fancy Dress ball. Gilbert’s race was some- what closer but he won by con- siderably over a hundred majority. “Georgia” Evans polled 434 votes, enough to elect him sec- retary-treasurer on the first bal- loting. His two opponents, Bu- sold and Pilley, received slightly less than 350 votes combined. A1 Wagner defeated Stuart San- ders by only 47 votes in the clos- est contested position. Powell received the largest vote for an unopposed candidate when he totaled 770. Ashworth, next editor of the Southern Col- legian, received the next highest with 752; Sugg was next with 744; then came Hamilton with 737; followed by Walker with 720, Plummer with 717, and Elias with 689.

No unsigned correspondence _will be published: however, we shall gladly withhold your signature n-om print upon request- If the choice were left to me whether to have a free press or a free government, I would choose a free press.—~ Thomas Jefferson. “FALLING IN LINE” Citizens all over America are learning to respect the press more and more each day. They are learning the value of freedom of the press and respect journalistic ethics. This theory of Americans learning to re- spect the newspaper profession more clear- ly brought out by the fact that the Nebras- ka legislature last week passed a law which prohibits future secret sessions being clos- ed to newspaper reporters and the bill has been signed by Governor Arthur J. Weaver. Another proof came up almost simultane- ously when the Grand Jury of Jefferson county, Alabama, recommended to the crim- inal court that Harry C. Frye, assistant managing editor of the Birmingham Age- Herald, not be held for contempt of court for refusing to divulge the source of informa- tion published in his newspaper. Still another proof came recently when the Rev. WaltonC. Cole, Chicago pastor, declared a free press one of the most effec- tive aids in good government. “Chicago would be much more corrupt than it is,” he said, “were it not for the fact that the press has, at times, given piti- less publicity to situations that could be cor- rected only by that publicity, which arouses the public conscience.” One illustration of good done by the press has been noticed in Miami, Florida, West- brook Peller, Chicago sports writer, was the inspirator. Pegler’s stories, appearing in the Chicago Tribune, were definite and un- qualified accounts of the gambling activ- ities in Miami. A cleanup of vice and gambling followed the stories. The Nebraska legislature respected free- dom of the press; the Alabama Grand Jury respected newspaper ethics; the Reverend Coe saw the need of freedom of the press; and Pegler’s stories have cleaned up Miami. Newspapers can do great things in improv- ing the country if they are not hampered by rigid “gag laws.” College papers all over the country, also, can do a great good 1’ they are not censored too rigidly—facilities are “Falling in Line” all over the country in giving editors a freer rein, and they are doing greater things for their colleges. American citizens are following the advice of Jefferson, who preferred freedom of press to freedom of government. _____o______ TWO KINDS OF SUPPORT Moral support is always welcomed by any individual and project. But moral support and no other kind is not worth the words wasted in the utterance. Members connected with Finals this June have received all the moral support one could expect or desire, but financial sup- port is woefully lacking. Everyone has wished the president of the Finals, the Fin- als Week committe, the finance committees, and all other committees success and suc- cess in abundance. But unless some of these “I wish you all the success in the world” students soon contribute support from the pocketbook instead of “I wish you —”‘those connected with Finals are going to be in for rough sailing. Many students have failed to contribute anything at all. Some have come forth wil- ling with the customary ten dollars in cash \ \ \ \ and in good checks, but a large n'~.imbc1' have given worthless checks. Finals cannot be run with cold checks—— business can. It behoves those forgetful and thoughtless students to make these checks good——that is, if they have any sense of honor and obligation, and we are sure every Washington and Lee man has. Many of these checks are post dated and students forget they have checks nt, but they should make it a point to take these up as soon as possible. Everyone wants an elaborate set of dances, a set which will well live up to for- mer dances here, but unless financial sup- port is greatly increased all the moral sup- port in the world will not help the Finals committees give you a gallant and glorious Finals. .___:_0______ THEY LAUGH LAST “He who laughs last laughs the longest.” And so the students of the University of Virginia and members of the Delta Tau Delta fraternity at that institution get to laugh the longest-—and we can imagine there will be plenty of laughing at the Char- lottesville school. , After probing the liquor situation most of last week, the president of the national fraternity issued a statement that the charges against the Virginia fraternity were misleading and untrue. During the investigation Detts Pickett, a Washington reformer, issued a statement for the press that the Virginia students would have to change their views on honor and that the chapter’s charter should be revoked. The action of the Arch chapter bears out the opinion of the RING-TUM PHI last week that Mr. Pickett was in error in coin- menting on the situation without knowing the inside of the affair. Aren’t we all a little too quick to criticise things and peo- ple without knowing the whole truth? Many people hear only one side and then jump at conclusions, making rash state- ments which later have to be “eaten.” We are glad the situation has been set- tled at Virginia and that Doctor Alderman has openly stated that if the closing of the doors of fraternity houses be necessary that the university will make the initial step. He has clearly shown that so long as he is in charge of the J effersonian institute that he is to run the university and it is not to be dominated by “outsiders.” MMQMM SCIENTISTS VS. MR. HOOVER Had some one told our forefathers a hun- dred years ago that We "would be riding in horseless vehicles today they would have laughed. And had someone told one of us ten years ago that straw would be used in making ink, paints, germicides, enamels, and auto top dressings we would have laughed too. But time has brought about inventions and developments——and today we ride in automobiles, and straw, which only a few years ago was considered a liability, is used to great advantages. Mr. Hoover is working over plans which should prove of great benefit to farmers, but he is about to be outdone by scientists who have found uses for straw. Editor and Publisher, a newspaper trade magazine, recently ran an article about the by-product of straw. The Merriville (Wis) Daily Herald is using ink in its plant made from straw from the Wisconsin farm lands. Only a short time ago the disposition of wheat and oat straw was a problem. No one had found use for it, and in many cas- es farmers would light a match to the stack and watch it go up in flames. It was pointed out that scientists have developed a demand for straw and thus will materially aid the farmers in the middle West. One farmer last fall netted only $82 froml his grain, while the sale of straw netted $162. From every ton of straw 1,600 pounds of useful products are extracted—this means only four hundred pounds of straw is wast- edin every 2,000 today. Scientists are not only eyiminating waste, but are materially helping the struggling farmer—and are about to beat Mr. Hoover at his own game. _.__M_—O.:T._: Life ih an art, not a business or a duty—Bish- op Paul Jones. 0 The best of today is simply an improvement of what preceded it.——Henry Ford. ):M___ The only popular tax is the one the other man pays.—Lord Dewar. “The world gave woman the vote expecting her to do great things,” said a well-known man recent- ly. “We expected her to abolish war, child labor, political corruption and—” Here a half dozen pretty girls swung vigorously past.

C.—Jack Cobb of Durham, basketball forward and captain of the University of North Carolina basketball team in 1925 and 1926, suffered injuries in an automobile wreck near here last night which, this morning necessitated the amputation of his right foot, just above the ankle. Miss Sara Sue Sherill, of Sylva and Asheville; Miss Mary Alma Wilson of Sylva, and Howard Covington of Waynesville were less seriously hurt. The car turn- ed over three times when it left the road, after Cobb, who was driving, was blinded by the lights of another car. 0..M___ Dinner Dance By “ 13” Club Friday A dinner dance for the mem- bers of the “13” club and their dates will be held Friday night at the Rosemont Inn on the Lynchburg road, at 7:30.

Vaeth Edgcworth Extra High Grade Smoking Tobacco You Choose The Ten Most I pterestinpgi News Personalities In The World?——Bickel Makes Choice. Who are the ten most interest- ing news personalities in' the world? ° Who do you enjoy reading about in the daily papers most? Some will give presidents of countries, kings of empires, base- ball players, movie actors, etc. And no doubt no two would se- lect the same ten. Karl A. Bickel, president of the United Press, has selected ten men whom he considers having the most interesting news person- alities for the Pathe Sound News interviews to be released next week in theatres throughout the United States. Mr. Bickel’s selection. follows, with the names appearing in ac- cordance to his idea of the ones with the most interesting news personalities : Herbert Hoover, the king of England and the prince of Wales, bracketed together; Col. Charles A. Lindbergh, ex-President Cal- vin Coolidge, Benito Mussolini, Henry Ford, Thomas A. Edison, Charlie Chaplin, David Lloyd George, and President Von Hin- denburg of Germany. Explaining these selections in the “talkie” interview, Mr. Bickel adds: “Almost any list might also in- clude General Pershing. Clemen- ceau of France should be included except for his age.

He thinks there are very few women in the world who might qualify among the first ten in popular news interest. Herbert Hoover was selected first because he is the executive of the most interesting country in the world. He places the king of England and the prince of Wales second and in the same bracket because their popularity in news interests fluctuates ac- cording to incidents and because the prince of Wales is of more in America than he is in his na- tive land. Calvin Coolidge seems to have lost none of his popularity and news interest when he left the White House March 4 and his do- ings will be of great interest for some time to come. Mr. Bickel mentions Mrs. Hoov- er, Mrs. Coolidge, Mary Pickford, Queen Marie of Rumania, and Madame Curie as the women who might possibly be mentioned. Should the list be selected by Washington and Lee students it is easy to assume that Joan Craw- ford would be included among the list of most interesting women. And it would be most likely that a reader would find Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig bracketed to- gether as being one of the ten most interesting news personali- ties. o The student council of Georgia Tech voted unanimously in favor of the Quarter Systems plan which is in operation at several southern institutions now. Re- cently the Technique, Georgia Tech student newspaper, ran an editorial campaign favoring this system. Several endorsements from members of the administra- tion, coaching department, and faculty were obtained. Now that the Technique has presented a petition to the execu- tive committee and has gotten its endorsement the only thing left for it to do to get the new system in operation is to get the approval of the faculty. This will be brought up before this body in the near future. MYERS HARDWARE CO. INC.

Generals Meet Waiiees i:riiiay,, After Reeess First Game This Week For Bass Tossers--Rain Is Cause. The game with North Carolina \scheduled for Monday having been rained out, the Washington and Lee ball tossers will get into ac- tion for the first time this week on Friday when they enter_tain. the Wahoos from Virginia on Wilson field. A game with V-William" and Mary is on the card for Saturday. The Virginia encounter. was originally booked for April;,.9,, but Jupiter Pluvius took a hand in the proceedings and flboded the field, making it necessary "to, re- schedule it for April 19. ”” r’ The Generals were handicapped during the first part of._,this week by bad weather and were, forced to take light _workou_ts, .in _the gym. For this reason it is un- likely that there will be’ any dras- tic shifts in the lineup. Leigh Williams is ‘slated to be back at his job on the initial sack.

Wright, "who played first base during Williams’ absence, will probab1y.‘be_.-shifted. , (By Mike LeiboWitz) ' Having ‘successfully repelled in- vading teams during the past week, the Universitw of North Carolina today stands the van of the Tri-State league race, with four victories and no defeats. Boasting of victories over Vir- ginia, Washington and Lee, and Maryland, the Tar Heels began their invasion of the Northern section this week with a clean cut victory over the Old Liners, their second for the current season. Jackson’s home-run in the 8th with a manon first gave the Tar Heels a 6 to 4 win, against Vir- ginia, North Carolina scored four runs in the sixth to come from behind for a 5 to 4 decision. The Tar Heels thus far have displayed. mid-season form, with their hurlers standing up unus- ually well. Ball, Tar Heel moundsman, with a brace of vic- tories leads the league hurlers, while his teammates, Fleming and Wright have accounted for vic- tories, too. Rain Halts Game North Carolina was scheduled to meet Washington and Lee here Monday and V. M. I. yesterday, but both games were washed out. Weather permitting, Virginia Poly will be faced today. Whether or chance that he will get a chance to show his wares on the mound in one of the two week- end battles. ‘It looks like Ed Smith has practically beaten off all competi- tors for the second base position, with Captain White at the hot corner. Jacob is again slated for shortstop. The outfield will be composed of Slanker, Lowdon, and Richard- son or Wright. _The Wahoos have had an up- and-down season so far this year. Coach Neale was hampered in the beginning by the lack of experi- enced hurlers and his team took several trimmings before he could find a man to go the route. Vir- ginia turned in several victories recently until stopped Saturday by North ' Carolina. "Bob Millen, Wahoo basketball captain, who is trying the dia- mond game for the first time, will probably toss them over for his team Friday afternoon. He showed a good bag of tricks in his first start and seems to be the best on the Cavaliers’ list. William and Mary, which op- poses the Generals on Saturday, is a team which has also showed good and bad baseball. They boast of a veteran pitcher, Wal- lace, who has held in check some of the best sluggers in Virginia and he will probably draw the hill assignment for the Williams- burgers. Wallace was chased from the box by the Generals in a game last season. 0 “Pardon me, sir, but you haven’t paid for your purchase.

And W. & L. not the Tar Heels will return here later in the week to fulfill their engagement is unknown, howev- er, it remains, for the Old Do- minion teams to snap the win- ning streak of the Tar Heels at this time. This will be the only trip that Carolina will make out- side the Tar Heel state. North Carolina State with two victories, one over Vfashington and Lee and the other over Maryland, presents a serious ob- stacle to the pennant aspirations of the fast moving Tar Heels. Carolina State has yet to meet the Tar Heels, and provided both teams keep their pace, their meet- ing on May 20th, wil lin all like- lihood decide the pennant win- ner. Avaratte is marking step with Ball of North Carolina for individual honors on the mound, having turned in the two victor- ies. V. M. I. has only played one game, winning over Virginia, while Virginia Poly has the un- usual record of having had their scheduled league encounters wash- ed out by rain. W. 8: L. and Va. Tied For Fifth Washington and Lee and Vir- ginia are tied for fifth position in the race standing, both having dropped two games. The Gener- als started well in their pre-sea- son encounters but slumped when they faced their Carolina foes, North Carolina State and Univer- sity of North Carolina. Maryland holds undisputed po- session of the bottom rung with three losses. The league-leading Tar Heels have a trio of heavy batsmen in Captain Lufty, Mand and Barn- hart, who combined have batted out sixteen hits in forty-two times at bat. Jackson, Carolina slugger, is hot after Cardwell’s record for home runs. Last year, Cardwell of Virginia, poled out three homers. To date, Jackson, who has three hits to his credit, has accounted for two lusty drives. Pitchers Avarrate of State and Ball of Carolina, with two vic- tories apiece, hold first place in their department. Every team in the league, how- ever, has its individual sluggers, who have been tallying up an enviable batting average for the league season. Maryland, de- spite its low standing, offers Higgins, who has five hits in ten trips to the plate. The Old Lin- ers also excell in double-killings, their infield having accounted for four of them. Kay, Old Liner outfielder, is leading the league in stolen bases, with four pilfers to his credit. Slanker Batting Well Woodworth, Carolina State first sacker, has also driven out five hits in ten journeys to the plate, while Slanker, Washington and Lee’s stellar center gardner, has similar record also. Slanker has to his credit, among his five blows, a homer and a triple. Tolley’s ‘K 111 West Nelson St. N eckwear—New Sweaters and Golf Hose to match.

State had a fighting chance to take the meet until Sandifer, VV. and L., won the last event, the broad jump, with a leap of 20 feet 10 1-2 inches. Garnering the majority of their points in the runs the Generals took first in the century, 220, 440, mile, low hurdles, and high hurdles.

Wise, of New, York, addressed a group of peo- ple under the auspices of the W. and L. Y. last night at the Lee chapel. He took as his title “A Free People” and sketched the history of the Jewish race and its effect on the history of the human race. He emphasized the fact that the Israelites have always oppos- ed tyranny in a personal, religi- ous, political, and every other way. They have never remained in bondage for any considerable time and during many periods of trial and persecution have retained their religious and traditional uni- ity. During the Middle Ages they did much to preserve the little remaining knowledge by being one of the few free peoples. He pictured the Israelites in a new role, that of an essentially freedom through years of poverty, prejudice, persecution, and later prosperity. esting and humorous things and writes them in “Grub Street.” The most significant of these things is “The Credo of 3.
