O I AGAINST LYN CHBURG WASHINGTON AND, IJ_NI‘VERISITY,“‘WEDNESDAY, SEPEMBER 21, S1927 NO. 1 GRIB PSSSPECTS BRIGHT AS TEAM RIMES F OR LYNCHBURG Third Week of Strenuous Practice Finds Fighting Generals In Fair Condition To Face cations Point to a Hornets Saturday——All Indi- Successful Season. Tips To Lead Men On Field TEN MONOGRAM MEN ARE BACK IN CAMP Rauber, Palmer, Holt, Whitlock, and Rector Only Members of Last Year's Team Missing j The curtain rises on the Generals’ 1927 football season Saturday after- college noon when the Lynchburg "Hornets will be the guest of the Generals on Wilson field. Not only will this be the first game of the season for the Generals, but the first football game to be played on the recently revamped Wilson field- grid-rion. Coach Herron has been sending his team through stiff workouts for this affair and from all indica- tions seems to be ready to take care of the Hornets. Before the end of the game it is exptected that coach Herron will have tried many combinations hoping to get a smooth in readiness for the heavy schedule the Blue and White confronts. This game is ex- pected to go far towards deciding the starting line-up of the West . Virginia game only a week hence. The Generals started off their 1927 training season in much bright- er hopes than they did the season of 1926, although five of last sea- son's luminaries are missing in Rauber; Holt, Palmer, Whitlock, and Rectof? Practice opened on Septem- ber 5,,xmd has continued steadilyto date. Two pnhctices a day were held until classes began last Friday, when once-a-day practice came into vogue. ‘Ten letter men of last season's team are back and are giving their all towards making the Generals a championship team this fall. Last fall only five monogram men were in camp. And with this to select from Coach Herron developed a team that tied Princeton and Florida and defeated V. P. I. and Kentucky as well as other teams. Now that he has ten wearers of the monogram working out daily and a nice selec- tion of material from the reserve team and ex-frosh to select from, hopes are exceptionally bright for copping the bunting of the “Big Four” as well as making a great bid for laurels in the Southern Con- ference Championship race. The line has caused Coach Herron no great amount of trouble, with four letter ends on hand, one letter tackle, and two regular guards. The only place that has caused the slightest worry was center, which now seems to be well taken care of by Latham, Rector's under-study last fall. One might say that the tackle left vacant by Holt is causing trouble too, but the trouble lies just in who to select rather than a dearth bf mtaerial. Coach Herron has Spotts and Bailey using with Fitz- patrick and Fisher have been get- ting the call at tackle, but Haw- kins and Hughes have been pushing been at ends yaheir way forward and may get the call over Fisher. The guard posi- tions seem to be cinched by Captain Tips and Groop, regular guards last fall. Latham is taking care of center and is battling off all com- petition for the pivot position. The backfield has been the coaches trouble all season. Losing Rauber, All-Southern full-back; Palmer,’ all South Atlantic half; and Whitlock, a sophomore last fall, at one fell of the sythe is a severe blow to the Generals. The only regular back on hand this year from the 1926 eleven is" Gene White, who has been shifted from his old position of quarter to full. However, Howe and Stearns are on hand, both winning their letter last year, to help revamp the backfield. Besides these ball toters, Coach Herron has Barnett, Cohen, and Eberhardt from the 1926 frosh team as well as Lott and Barclay from the 1926 reserves. Lott was out of the race all last season on account of an Continued on Page 4) Calyx Try-outs There will be is meeting of the business stall’ of the 1928 Calyx, Thursday night, September 22, at Newcomb Hall, first floor, at 7:30.

NEW TUITION TO RAISE SALARIES Decrease In Value Of Dollar Is Deason For The Increas In Tuition (By Henry Louis Smith) The purchasing power of the American dollar has no diminished within the past ten years that all salaries, wages, rents, and materials have almost doubled in price. This has so enlarged the expenditure nec- essary to run an institution of higher education that practically every college and university has been compelled ‘to largely increase its in- come or close its doors. Even in heavily endowed institutions like Harvard, Yale, Princeton, etc., -tuition fees have been largely in- creased during the past two or three years,,and in the South almost every institution doing college work ‘has either increased its fees or se- curycd a large pnnual appropriation from the legislature. I That its enlarged faculty might be given a living salary the Board of Trustees of Washington and Lee in- creased the tuition fee by the small sum of $25.00, which is only one- fourth the increase of a neighboring institution. This has enabled the Board of Trustees to increase to some extent the salaries of the whole faculty and also of the other employees of the institution. Even with this increase the Uni- versity spends on the training of every student in the catalogue be- tween $450 and $500 during the nine months of the session. The tuition, therefore, even to one who pays the full fee, is largely a gift. During the past few years the loan funds at the disposal of the University have been very largely increased, and this it is hoped will aid many worthy and ambitious young men to carry on their college training in spite of lack of funds. Memorial Bridge Preliminary Work Now Proceeding ,The much-dreamed-of bridge ac- ross the ravine to Wilson field is actually under construction. After much red tape a contract was let to the Luten Bridge Co., of Knox- ville, Tennessee, which started work about the first of September. The bridge is to be of re-enforced con crete, 12 feet wide, extending from the Doremus Memorial gymnasium to the East end of Wilson field. This bridge was made possible by contributions from students, alumni and the athletic association. Students were to give ten dollars a vear for five years, a total of fifty dollars. The first check was to be given last year with the second check falling due today. All checks are to be sent to Verbon Kemp, alumni secretary, or to be given to him in the new alumni headquarters, formerly the old Lee school of Jour- nalism building. He is keeping an accurate account of each individual who has subscribed to the fund. Horace W. Peaslee, of Washington, is the advisory architect. Mr. Peas- lee is one of the widest known arch- itects in his section of the country. The bridge is being built at an estimated cost of $31,000 and is ex- pected to be finished by the middle of December. The span is to be for pedestranis only, and when com- pleted will be in the nature of a, class memorial. present. room Thursday at noon. MAN NOTABLE IMPROVEMENTS ARE ON CAMPUS Lee Chapel Repaired, New Journal- ism Quarters, and Y. M. C. A.

The townspeople insisted that the gatherings were against the best in- terests of the loiterers._ Since there is a law on the statute books prohibiting stores to keep [open on Sundays, and since the objectors threatened to place the matter in the hands of the town council, the man- agers of the dru'g stores decided to acquiesce in their wishes. CLASSES BEGIN BEFORE COMPLETE REGISTERING “Y” Secretary, Town Pastors, Cheer- “leaders, President of Freshmen Council And Dean Speak The 179th session of Washington and Lee University was formally ‘opened Friday morning September 16, when President Henry Louis Smith delivered the principal address at the University assembly held in Doremus gymnasium. The exercises were attended by the faculty guests, which included 300 freshmen. Although registration had not been fully completed, classes started Fri- day morning according to regular schedule. A three-day introductory program for freshmen was conclud- ed Thursday night with exercises held at Lee Memorial Chapel. The assembly was opened with the invocation, offered by Rev. T. M. Swann. President Smith then in- troduced Craig Houston Patterson, secretary of the Y. M. C. A. this year. Mr. Patterson in turn intro- duced_ the pastors of the town churches to the student body. Fol- lowing their brief talks, Robert W. Pharr, cheerleader, led the assembly through a Generals’ yell, after which the Swing was sung. V. A. Fisher, president of the Freshman Council, briefly addressed the student body and asked the cooperation of both the new and old men in file cni’o';ico- ment of the 1927-28 freshmen rules. Dean H. D. Campbell explained in detail the new interpretation of the automatic rule which went into effect last year. The new ruling on absences was also taken up by Dr. Campbell and explained at length. President Smith chose for his subject “The Six Essentials of Col- lege Mannhood.” Steadfast home loyalty, high minded individualism, a winning personality, habitual in- tensity of will, of purpose, of habit, and unflagging persistence,’ and a lofty ‘moral character were the six qualities stressed by Dr. Smith in his address. “If these essentials are mastered at Washington and Lee,” he said in conclusion,” you will be a happy and successful student, the joy and pride of your home circle, your alma mater’s richest asset, and a leading citizen of our glorious Republic.” The benediction was offered by Rev. J. J. Murray. _.__j()___________ Y. Schedules Its Opening Social For Friday Night A social supper for Freshmen will be given by the Y. M. C. A. in the Episcopal church Friday, night.

GREET OPPORTUNITY PERSONALLY The fall equinox is here, and with it comes the realiza- tion that the 179th session of Washington and Lee University has begun. The varied summer pleasures, travels, and vacation labors are things of the past, and approximately nine hundred young men from all sections of the country are fast settling down once ;more to their class—room duties in the shadows of scences hallowed by the spirits and ideals of Washington and Lee, two outstanding leaders of national and southern culture and development. About two—thirds of the students are returning for their second, third, fourth, or even fifth years here, but there are on the the campus some three hundred new men——rnen not yet thoroughly imbued with the spirit of the University, and to most of whom this week is the starting of a glorious experience Or the fulfillment of an ambition to acquire that higher educa- tion for which there is such a need in America today. It is these three hundred freshmen who cause Older minds to pause apprehensively as they are viewed on the threshold of their great adventure. The Opportunities presented at Washington and Lee for quiet and intensive pursuit of knowledge, uninterrupted by the hub—bub and distractions of a larger school or of a school located in a great city, are legion, but the decision as to whether or not the student will avail himself of the advantages offerred is a personal one. Together with the opportunities are found temptations of many kinds beckoning to the weak—willed man to do his work in a slip—shod manner, to debauch his personal self, and to totally nullify the potential powers of self—improve— ment which are placed at his disposal. Prospects were never brighter for a splendid year at Washington and Lee, and both the administration and student leaders On the campus are striving to put the scholastic work and the conduct on the student body on a higher place than ever before. These aims can be accomplished only by a judicious weeding—out of those failing to toe the mark, however, and, in an effort to make it possible for every man to make the grade, such regulations as have been passed regarding require- c ments needed to remain in school, absence rules, and such limitations on personal conduct as are natural to gentlemen have dll been painstakingly explained at assemblies and freshman meetings. n SELF—EXPRESSION The RING—TUM PHI, in extending to all students, both old and new, a hearty welcome to Washington and Lee, wishes to emphasize again the fact that this is a paper “By the Students, for the University.” It is the desire of this publication that it might be the organ of student sentiment, and that it might reflect in true tones the ideas of the campus on whatever matters affect the welfare of the school. In order to accomplish this end, the columns of the paper are always open to its readers, and all correspondence, even if clearly representing the opinion of the writer only, will be published, with but one —— restrictive requirement. Unsigned correspondence will never be published, for obvious reasons, but, whenever requested by the writer, author- ship will be withheld, and thus the freedom of anonymity will be reserved for the writer. On a campus which has a student body made up of the type men found here, differences of opinion are bound to arise of all matters which are of any worth-while degree of import- ance, and it is in the hope of giving an outlet to an explanation or expression of ideas on such subjects that correspondence is invited. Everything about the operation of Washington and Lee cannot be perfect, and statements involving constructive criticism of conditions, whether of an administrative or of purely a student-controlled nature, are always welcomed by the editors. 0 YOUR SCHOOL—YOUR TEAM Saturady will witness the opening of a football schedule for the Fighting Generals which is as hard, if not harder, than any ever heretofore faced by a Blue and White team. Lynchburg College, West Virginia, Duke, Princeton, Kentucky, Maryland, Virginia, V. P. I., and Florida constitute a series of opponents which would test the mettle of any gridiron machine in the East and in taking on such rivals the Generals will need and deserve the unified support of the entire student body. Three of the games———those with Lynchburg, Duke, and Virginia—will be played on Wilson Field, and nothing whatever should be allowed to prevent any man from being in the stands cheering his favorites as they battle for their Alma Mater. Weeks of hard training, ten days of which are spent in the heat of early September while the majority of the students are still enjoying themselves at their homes or at some resort, precede the encounters, and the sacrifices, both in time and in physical ease and comfort, are great. The forty—ocld men on the squad, however, gladly undergo the hardships for Washington and Lee, and it behooves every loyal supporter of the University to back the team to the utmost of his ability. Trips to Charleston to witness the West Virginia battle, toi Princeton, to College Park, and to Blacksburg are easily within reach of many fortunately situated students, and, providing they are up in their classes and can afford one day holiday on.
