Harry Petersen, judge of the Court of Control, announced this week a Court decision to restrict 200 membersof the freshman class to the campus for seven days be- gining next Monday. The order came as a result of the poor showing made by fresh- men on the recent test of the stu- dent body constitution and fresh- man regulations. This test was giv- en by the freshman advisors, who subsequently turned the failures over to the Court of Control. A retest will be given on Satur- day night during the "campus" period at 9 PM at the College Union for all freshmen who flunk- ed the previous test. Repeat fail- ures will be dealt with strongly by the Court. All freshmen except those few who received a passing grade on the first test will be required to remain on the campus from 9 a.m. Monday, November 8. through the following Monday, November 15. Petersen " pointed out that the "campus" includes only the grounds of the college. Any fresh- men found off the campus other than at the Post Office, which they arc allowed to visit twice daily, will receive stern punishment from the Court. Freshmen tried in Monday night's Court session and found guilty of failure to know the fresh- man regulations, of not wearing beanies, and of other offenses have been required to wear plaques bearing the offense, to wear name tags, to remain on the campus, to wear coats and tics, and to write themes ranging from 175 to 3200 words concerning the freshman regulations. The purpose of the latter punish- ment. Petersen said, is to get an indication of the freshman attitude toward the regulations and gen- eral policy of the Court. The judge commented, "So far, the response in these themes has been very good and the majority have felt the regulations have a good point and are necessary." The Court of Control reminds freshmen that all rules are still to be strictly obeyed. Petersen said membersof the Court arc attempt- ing to rigidly enforce the regula- tions: he continued. "With the cooperation of the entire student body the Court can develop a good freshman class." Members of the Court request that charges by upperclassmen against freshman violators be turn- ed to them as quickly as possible.

Tuesday's Election And The FutureOf Our Country

Last Tuesday aHuiMSil the mid-termelection throughout this country, butTuesday aroused no greater speculationin theDavidson student body than wheth-er or not drill was to be called off. Semeforty-five million Americans went to thepolls with men, events, and issues inmind; while we plodded to class withnohigher thought than an impending re-view or an uaiiaadied tranalatton. Whilewo hided out time in class, the men whowill shape the future of this country andthe world were chosen. Granted not allof us could have voted, but how manyof us wereatail familiar with the nationalpolitical scene aad its important issuesbeyond theae of the races of Jonas vs.Sedberry. Scott vs. West, and Thurmondvs. Brown?

The personal effects of politics arereal yet seldom considered Lower taxes(leaving our parents more money), andthe avoidance of a major world conflict(which would draw us into service) arebut two examples of the practical side ofasallies as it directly concerns us. In afew years we will be leaving this cloisterto enter a world largely shaped by themen elected last Tuesday; therefore, itseems that we should be acquiring aknowledge of politics as well as studies.

A littleless related,yetof significanceto us, is the interpretation of the election

of some for the rights and privileges ofothers. This is immaturity— immaturitywhich the large majority of adults retain.These particular incidents epitomise someof the reasons for our having so manypetty regulations which should not haveto be. The actions of a few can, and do,affect the majority.

Perhaps part of the answer toas manyof the student's criticisms of the David-son system lies in our re-ovtuattou ofthe term "gentleman." Readily wo admitthat our democratic society does not tendto produce what is known at the Englishgentleman, but then our term "gentle-man 1 does not imply high breeding, etc,but rather respect for another's ideas,toleration for his beliefs, and an attemptat understanding. The freshman "speak-ing rule" has not been incorporated asa method of hating,but to teach an out-wardmanifestation of a real gentleman—friendliness.

Ournationneeds more gentlemenandagreat many less boors; perhaps David-soncould do with the same thing.— D.H.O.

A Consideration of the Davidson QentlemanUnfortunately the term "Davidson

gtr*lTT'" has lost its real meaning tomost of usand has become a rather glibterraof derision of a sort. The two wordsapparently connote the catch all phraseto be usedinpunishing some misdemean-ant whose conduct cannot be placed cata-goricaHy in the grasp of one of the copi-ous supply of rules under which we herelive. This writer is opposed to the ideaof havingsuch numerous and petty rulesiMisjiffasf our oade,but he iseven moresppallsrt at the adverse reflections thatmany of these castupon the student bodyItself. Would rules be formulated if therewennot offenses with which to be dealt?

Time and again we hear criticism fortreating the Davidson students as beingmere immature than we really are. Theaad part of this criticism in the mind ofthis writer is that it is essentially true,hut under ourpresent government do weact always with a reasonable amount ofmaturity?

The problem is a lack of respect, tol-eratson, and consideration on the part

Wildcat GrapplersBegin PreparationFor 1954 Season

Davidson's Varsity Wrestlingteam began workouts last Mondaywith an exceptionally large num-ber of men turning out in answerto Coach Charlie Parker's call forgrapplers. The list of candidatesfor the squad now stands at 27.

Leading the number of returninglettermen is Captain Johnny Bux-ton, third-ranking Southern Con-ference matter in the 157-lb. classlast year. Buxton will be the mostprobable Davidson man to win aconference crown this season.

Fresh and full of snap afterlast week's rout, the Davidsonclub will go into the scrap with-out a single man missing due to in-jury. The two platoon system willagain be employed, thereby tend-ing to wear downa team with lessreserve strength.

Catawba had a potentially goodteam at the outset of the season,but injuries to key men have giv-en them a poor record. Neverthe-less, with a win over Davidson,they would consider the season asuccess. Remembering what Pres-byterian did to us, they will hit us Jin the same frame of mind.

Evidence that Coach Dole is ex-pecting no pushover has been in-dicated by the gruelling practicesessions held this week. Althoughhis club is favored by thirteenpoints,he is preparing for u roughafternoon.

Davidson's Cross Country Teamtravels to Raleigh on Monday forthe State Meet, the annual majorcompetitive race among the col-leges of North Carolina. Sponsor-ed by the Wolfpack of North Car-olinaState, which is the host team,the meet traditionally pits the bestrunners in the state against therough State course and the Staterecord.

This year's meet will be a five-team affair in the Varsity division,with Davidson, Duke, North Caro-lina, N. C. State, and Wake For-est participating. There will alsobe a freshman division since thefour Atlantic Coast Conferenceteams are not allowedto use fresh-men in Varsity competition. Da-vidson will not enter the fresh-man division since the Cat fresh-men are eligible for the Varsityunder Southern Conference rules.

There will be an Open divisionin which Service teams and col-lege graduates will make up themajorpart of the competition. Thefavorite in this class will be BuzSawyer, former Southern cham-pion who now coaches the N. C.State harriers.

Cats Back On The TrackWithRout of W.Va. Tech

After losing thirteen consecutive Hoiuecoming contests,Davidson's Wildcats finally broke the jinx last Saturday andwon a game before a Davidson Homecoming crowd. When theCats finally managed a win, it was one in which they pulledout all the stops and proceeded to thrash the Golden Bears ofWest Virginia Tech to the tuneof 51-6. Usingall the playerson the bench and calling freshmen players out of the standsat halftime, Coach Dole used a total of 49 players in the rout.

1 After the first quarter, therewas no doubt in the minds of spec-tators that the scrap could turnout to be anything other than anoverwhelming Davidson victory.The Wildcat backs ran wild be-hind the savage blocking of theforward wall, and throwing lessthan ten passes, the Davidson clubground out a total of 380 yardsvia the ground.

The day's longest run came inthe first quarter as Barney Poolelugged the football for 55 yards.Hauling in a Bear punt on theDavidson 45, Poole faked a hand-off, and then proceeding to twistand squirm down the west side-line, seemingly caught by Beardefenders on two occasions, butfinally breaking into the clear andgoing all the way.

With the records computedthrough Wednesday, November 3,theKappa Sigs are standing on topinthe flicker ball competition.Thegreenshifted boys have a 9-1 rec-ord with only one game left ontheir schedule. However their fin-al contest is with the K As whohave lost only two. Should theKAs be the victors in that en-counter, the league lead wouldprobably be thrown into a three-way tie with the Phi Delts. whopresently have an 8-2 record, be-ing the thirdparty.

On the past Monday, the threevictorious teams met little opposi-tion as they won their games bysafe margins. The ATOs ran wild,scoring seven touchdowns to beatthe luck-leas Independents, 52 to6.The Kappa Sigs increased theirnumber of wins by downing thePhi Gams, 254.The PhiDelts heldtheir opponents scoreless whilerunning up 21 points for them-selves.

Tuesday's cold weather was toomuch for the Pi Kapps and theSAEs, who canceled their game;but the Ktlrir*" members of fourother fraternities determinate^played their scheduled contests.Although the losers held a betterwin-loss record, the Betas soundlywhipped the KAs. 40 to 18.

By JIMHOUNOUS.R Jgainsi only two de-feats, they ran up the

largest margin of victory for a Davidson club since 1947. Mid-way through the '47 season, the Cats downed Hampden-Syd-ney, 49-0. The last time that a Davidson squad scored overfifty points was in 1946. That year the Red and Black rolledWofford's Terriers,next week's opponent, to the tune of 54-0.

Almost anything you could think of happened last Satur-day. For the first time this season, a Davidson back got offon a run of over fifty yards. Barney Poole got the honor ashe hauled back a Techpunt for 55 yards and a TD. The Wild-cat ground game hit its peak as Davidson backs consistentlyhit the line and ends for sizable gains.

From the tone of some of the spectators of the rout, anoutsider might have thought Davidson was taking anotherbeating, and the groans heard were for Davidson, but theubwiHOT8 were no longer complaining about having a los-ing team. Now they were mad because Davidson was, foronce, having a good day. It seems that the long, lean yearscanbe easily forgotten by some. Personally, we enjoyed the feel-ing of beingon the winning side.

The Cats set a minor record Saturday by winning theirfourth decision of the current campaign. This improved onthe number of total wins by Davidson clubs in 1951, 1952,and 1953. The 1951 club won one game, the '52 team wontwo, andlast year's squad went through the schedule withouta win.

HATS OFFThe Davidsonian hat is off this week to halfback Jim

Thacker. The Rome, Ga., flash finally hit his stride and onfour occasions showed his heels to Tech defenders as hecrossed the double-stripes. Thacker was the leading threatof theDavidson ground attack duringhis freshman and sopho-more seasons, and last year, his fine play was one of thefew bright spots ina dismal season.In preseasonpractice thisfall,Thacker was injured and didn't play in the openeragainstV.M.I. Returning to the Wildcat line-up, he failed to re-gainhis old form, and other members of the Davidson back-field walked off with the laurels. Against West Virginia Tech,however, Thacker returned to his rote as Davidson's mostdangerous man. On two of the touchdown jaunts, a less-elusive runner would have been caught, but Jim slippedaround the Tech men in the manner that looked so familiarto the Davidson upperclassmen who had seen him performin the same way so many times before.

SCHEDULE AT FAULTAGAIN

Last season, the students had the dubious pleasure ofseeing the Wildcats at home on only three occasions, andmany complaints were raised on the subject This year'scard has improved along that line, including four games atDavidson and one at Charlotte, with only four games playedaway. The size of the crowd at the game Saturday showed anerror in scheduling this year. Though the west stands werepractically full, the east stands were not half-filled (for ahomecoming crowd, with alumni coming to the game, thiswas a rarity). Thereason was that only 20 miles away,Clem-son gadWake Forest were meeting in Charlotte. The Char-lotte fans naturallly stayed in town instead of traveling overto PiwWaan The faux pas in scheduling also cosj Davidsonstudents the chance to see one of the better games in thisarea, sinceCharlotte has few college games.

writtenfor put classes rather thanfor the current semester, whileonehundred and thirty-six studentsstated that all tests appeared tobe current.

Some of the suggestions offeredby students were that all true-falsequestions be eliminated becausethey were sometimes presented ina tricky manner: study sheetsshould be given stating the ma-teriala test willcover; tests shouldbe given frequently so the studentswill become familiar with the typeof test the teacher gives and willhave a better understanding ofwhat to study.

Many students stated that theyhave the tendency of putting theirstudies off until the last minuteand If only one test is given, thiscan be very harmful to a student'sgrade The survey seemed to re-veal that if the instructors wouldgive more tests the students wouldstudy for each individual test andthus keep his studies up-to-date.

Edmond. Okla. (I.P.)— A surveytaken among approximately 300CentralState College students con-cerning examinations, teachers, ab-sences, and variousother questionsconfronting students here, by afaculty study committee, revealsthe following facts:
