DR. OTTO HOETSCH TALKS ON GERMANY

Address Delivered to Students of Foreign Service School—Simi- lar Lectures Arranged for Near Future.

In accordance with its usual policy to have special addresses by distinguished foreigners that come to Washington, the School of Foreign Service of George- town University had arranged a special address on "Modern Germany," which was given by Dr. Otto Hoetsch at 8 P. M. on Monday, October 8, 1928, in the audi- torium of the School of Foreign Service.

Dr. Hoetsch is one of the outstanding intellectual leaders of Germany today. He has been a member of the German Reichstag for the past eight years and is now a member of their Committee on Foreign Affairs. He is also Professor of History at the University of Berlin. He is the author of many books on his- tory and is the editor of the Journal of Fastern European History.

Probably more so than any city in America, Washington receives most of the distinguished foreigners who visit the United States, and the School of

COLLEGE ORCHESTRA PLANS FOR SEASON

Several Vacancies Caused by Re- tirement of Veteran Members— New Student Manager Will Be Elected Soon.

With seven of last year's members re- turned, and only three vacant places to fill, the Collegians, Georgetown's dance orchestra, is expected to be reorganized within a few days for the coming season. ■ Last year, under the leadership of Charles A. Bruns, Jr., and Mr. McKeon, Moderator, the syncopators enjoyed great success. Mr. Bruns did not return to Georgetown this year. He is attending the Washington School of Music. The leader of the orchestra for this term has not been decided upon as yet.

Last season the orchestra played at college dances and gave two concerts in conjunction with the Glee Club. The same plan will probably be followed this year, the concerts being given in Gaston Hall.

The personnel of the orchestra to date is as follows: Messrs. Nettles, saxo- phone ; Butler, drums; Breeskin, piano; Pielsticker, bass horn; Wood and Fisher, trumpets; Tyler, trombone. New mem- bers will be needed to fill the places left vacant by Frank Dwyer and Charles Bruns, saxophones, and Art Canon, banjo.

A notice will be posted on the bulletin board soon for the benefit of those who wish to try for a place in the orchestra. No class distinction is taken into consid- eration in choosing members from among the candidates. They are judged from a standard of ability only.

A striking testimonial of the great work THE HOYA is accomplishing in maintaining a connection between the University and her alumni is contained in part of a letter from Mr. Edward A. Driess, A.B. '26, to the Reverend Moderaotr of the Hilltop paper, read- ing as follows: "THE HOYA is the only medium which will bring George- town back to me and renew the mem- ories which I cherish as well you un- derstand."

RYAN SCENE OF WELCOME BANQUET

All Classes Enjoyed Festivities— Good Humor Keynote of Affair —Charlesworth in Charge of Entertainment.

They ate, they sang, they cheered, they laughed, they applauded—and did they ever enjoy themselves? Well, we feel justified in saying that the Welcome Back Banquet of 1928, held in Ryan Hall on Sunday evening, October 7, was a com- plete and soul-satisfying success fra- ternally, theatrically and gastronomically.

If there was a single Hilltop student who was not present last Sunday night, he was either in the Infirmary or locked in his room. The main hall was com- pletely filled and an overflow crowded the smaller dining-room. Lindbergh himself could have elicited no better response from Georgetown.

The Freshmen were given the prefer- ence of entrance and were eagerly fol- lowed by the upper classmen, all march- ing in to the music of a small but pow- erful orchestra which certainly had its work cut out for it.

Impatience was prevalent after the menus had been read but it was not long before the advent of food produced com- parative quiet over the assembled multi- tudes. Soon, however, with hunger as- suaged, youthful enthusiasm showed itself and when President of the Yard Richard K. Charlesworth introduced Captain Jerome Carroll, the applause was deafen- ing, as the poets have been wont to say. After a ringing cheer for him had been led by Mr. Charlesworth, Captain Carroll praised the spirit which has been shown at the football games, and especially commended the Freshmen, promising more excitement in the games to come.

Shortly after this came the traditional songs and cheers of each class. The Seniors cheered for the three other classes and received thunderous echoes. Then the class songs were rendered. The Juniors were a little undecided as to which of their many songs they should entrance their hearers with, but even- tually they reached a choice and sang with gusto. In both songs and cheers the Freshmen proved that greater numbers mean greater volume.

From then on until the singing of the Alma Mater under Father McDonough's leadership, the "songs they sung" were many, varied, and not entirely harmonic. The singing of the Alma Mater closed the

SOLEMN MASS TO BE HELD FRIDAY

Reverend John J. O'Connor, S.J., Celebrant of Annual Mass of the Holy Ghost.

Tomorrow morning at 9:15 o'clock the Mass of the Holy Ghost will be cele- brated in Trinity Church. The celebrant of this Solemn High Mass will be Rev- erend John J. O'Connor, S.J., Reverend Hugh Dalton, S.J., pastor of Trinity Church, will be the Deacon, and the Sub- Deacon will be Mr. Philip Walsh, S.J., of the College Faculty. James Glavin, '29, will be Master of Ceremonies. Aco- lytes for the Mass will be members of the St. John Berchman's Society of George- town. The Mass will be sung by the choir of Trinity Church.

The occasion of the celebration of the Mass will be a most solemn one inasmuch as it is considered as the formal re- opening of the school year. The purpose of this Mass is to invoke the assistance of the Holy Ghost, Source of Light and Wisdom, for the student body so that they may continue their studies under Divine guidance and inspiration.

Recently in New York City a similar Mass was held on the occasion of the opening of the Courts. It was a unique event for it was the first time in this country that the Mass of the Holy Ghost was ever celebrated expressly for the purpose of invoking divine aid and guid- ance for the legal and judicial fraternity. At the celebration of the divine sacrifice on this occasion lawyers and judges of Jewish, Protestant, and Catholic beliefs sat side by side. They were then, as Georgetown is tomorrow, merely invok- ing an ancient European custom. For from time immemorial it has been the European practice to thus consecrate scholastic endeavor and the administra- tion of justice by having at the opening

Will be Located Back of the Mile Path on Reservoir Road—Pro- vision Made for Future En- largement Programs.

Construction on the new $800,000 Med- ical and Dental Building will be started in the near future. The site of the new building, which was planned for the block bounded by 36th and 37th Streets, and N and O Streets, has been changed. The new site, decided upon after consultation with the new president Rev. W. Coleman Nevils, S.J., is back of the mile path on Reservoir Road. This situation is much more beautiful and better suited to the medical and dental schools than the orig- inal site.

The building is intended to form the first unit of Georgetown's proposed med- ical center, which will be located around the mile path. The location lends itself to extensive landscaping and provides un- limited space for an attractive grouping of buildings. It is Father Nevils' plan to eventually move the Georgetown Uni- versity Hospital from its present location at 35th and N Streets to the Reservoir

FORMAL INAUGURAL OF RECTOR, OCT. 27

James A. Farrell, Steel Magnate, Makes Presentation Speech— Reception Held Afterwards for Alumni and Visitors.

On Saturday, October 27, Gaston Hall will witness the formal installation of the Rev. W. Coleman Nevils, S.J., as Presi- dent of Georgetown University. An aca- demic procession, the members of which will wear caps and gowns, will precede the ceremonies at 7:45 P. M. Dr. Ed- mund A. Walsh, S.J., Vice-President of the University and Regent of the School of Foreign Service, as chairman of the inaugural ceremonies, will present the great seal and charter of the College to the new President.

There will be but three speeches: One by Dr. Walsh; the presentation address, by Mr. James A. Farrell, of New York, president of the United States Steel Cor- poration, which will be on behalf of the Board of Regents; and the acceptance speech of Father Nevils. After these have been delivered, there will be a re- ception and collation for the large crowd of out-of-town visitors and Alumni ex- pected for the event.

The acceptance address is looked for- ward to with much interest, as Father Nevils is expected to touch on other problems besides scholastic matters, of great importance alone. Among these are the extension of the Alumni Association and the fulfillment of the building pro- gram planned several years ago.

On the following morning there will be a meeting of the Board of Regents for the purpose of filling the five vacan- cies and of discussing business matters.

ANOTHER STEP FORWARD.

After the days of '76 the English and the Americans began their all-absorbing pastime of making comments and passing jokes upon the national customs of each country. Not that they lack respect for each other, but as someone expressed it, "they must have their little joke." For instance, one Englishman discovered his cousin from the States holding his hand, palm upwards, in order to find out if it were raining. The adherent of King George slyly reminded his friend that the back of the hand is far more sensitive than the palm, and further advised him to think twice before he adopted "such quaint American customs."

However, one little criticism from John Bull must be considered in a more serious vein. An English athlete, in a recent tour of America, deplored the fact that our colleges and universities are placing too much emphasis on developing a few men to give their institutions powerful athletic teams, while neglecting the physical de- velopment of the greater bulk of the student body. It is an accepted fact, he argued, that the development of the body should proceed hand in hand with the development of the mind. In his statemtnt the Englishman contrasted the finely organized Intra- Mural athletic systems of the larger English universities with the ineffective and little encouraged systems in vogue in this country.

An investigation finds his criticism to be generally true, with the notable exception of Notre Dame University, of South Bend, Ind. But now Georgetown is stepping to the front with a general student athletic system that has met with the enthusiastic approval of the entire university. Thus Georgetown meets the criticism of the Eng- lishman and "goes him one better" by developing a well-balanced Intra-Mural athletic program and at the same time retaining her powerful teams to keep her to the fore in Intercollegiate circles.

The HOYA, on behalf of the student body, expresses appreciation to the new Presi- dent of the University, and to the new Dean of the College for their efforts in offer- ing this added advantage to Georgetown students. It also thanks Mr. John D. O'Reilly, newly appointed Professor of Physical Education, and Mr. Eugene Brennan, Manager of Minor Sports, for their cooperation. It is to be hoped that their united efforts will bring about the completion of the athletic program as outlined in detail several weeks ago.

Paging the Peerless Proofreader.—There is a wonderful opening for a bright young man with a mind like a steel trap a mind perfectly coordinated with two never- blinking eyes. He need not be a college graduate, although information on many subjects, supplemented by wide reading, would help enormously. If he has the quali- fications set forth in the opening lines he needs but one more gift—absolute mechanical infallibility in the business of proofreading. Any prominent publication would pay (as one nationally read magazine has offered) ten thousand dollars yearly for the services of such a person.

I maintain that a college course will not hurt the man, and, if he exists, the HOYA staff prays that he may elect to matriculate at the Georgeown hilltop. He would serve us well, I believe.

For typographical errors do occur, and a few years of experience with them has engendered a disposition to make allowances for those that are manifest in the pub- lications of others. Still, the HOYA would like to have the perfect proofreader at its disposal. He would have been worth his weight in extended week-ends if he had served only to rectify the recently printed headline that told of a prominent faculty member's retirement—instead of announcing, as was intended, his promotion to a position of regency.

***** Groupings, Gropings, and a Ray of Light.—The assignment of individual mem-

bers of a student Dody to definite "groups'' has long been the dream of numerous college deans. Some colleges have seen the assignment actually affected; certainly a perfect assignment of this sort must be the dream of every dean, and may be con- sidered the surest sign of the dawn of the millennium. Experience must have shown many of the members of Georgetown's present student body the difficulty with which a professor devises a plan to suit best the body of individuals that constitute his charge in any course. Difficulty with the smaller body and in the smaller sphere of learning must increase when one deals with the larger body and the more general embrace of all courses offered in the university.

The advantages of perfect grouping are obvious—four divisions of one class might have four different professors imparting information on one art or science, and each quarter of the class might find a decided advantage in learning from a different pro- fessor. Individual contact with each student is, of course, impossible for each pro- fessor—and if such contact were effected conflicts amongst the professors themselves might be inevitable. I wonder if such a state of affairs would be settled by com- promise or such offers as that of Professor A to "trade Burns and Blake for Smith" with Professor B.

A weak voice that has cried for a chance to solve this problem is that of the "College Intelligence Test." The student is told to estimate the number of nails in the shoe of a dray horse, give the color of the coronation robes of the Queen of Sheba, and state the present-day rate of exchange value (in drachmas) of twenty shark's teeth from Madagascar. The "findings" of these tests must be compared to a standard and the student assigned to a division accordingly. Libera nos Domine!

When the problem is solved it seems that the solution will come from the individual student himself—but not through his participation in the "intelligence" test. . Dean Hawkes, of the college department of Columbia University, has contributed to our information on this subject by rating students in three types:

"In the first place there is the student who is looking forward to a professional school, and who is pointing his entire college work toward . . . professional use- fulness." Second "... is the student, who, by temperament and ambition is a scholar." Third, there is "the man whose best intellectual development is not ob- tained through research work of the kind encouraged by seminars and intensive atten- tion to the cultivation of a narrow field." Dean Hawkes concluded: "The solution of the problem of the first two collegiate years hinges upon the organization of a program permitting the student to make a wide survey of various fields of intellectual interest in order that he may determine the direction which he should finally take."

If this is a step towards a solution of the "individual assignment" professors and students alike must feel grateful to Dean Hawkes. One thing, then, is clear—the first move has to come from the student himself. Perhaps the next half dozen or so must, likewise. Clearly it is chiefly his own concern.

***** Authorities and Their Aberrations.—If there were recordings of an unusual

seismic disturbance, word of it would no sooner have reached the press than a repre- sentative would be at Georgetown seeking information in an interview with a member of the faculty. A special article demanded by political changes in Russia, would mean recourse to another faculty member. Perhaps a quest for information on a third matter would find the reporter making his interview at Catholic University, George Washington, the Smithsonian Institution, or the headquarters of the National Geo- graphic Society. In all cases there would be an appeal to an authority on a definite subject.

1 his state has its parallel throughout the world—and has led to abuses; perhaps it is the abuse of the interview by the "party of the second part" that has influenced abuse of authoritative words on the part of the "party of the first part." A German scholar writes what is accredited an admirable biography of his fellow-countryman, Bismark; on the crest of the wave of success he announces his intentions of settling theological difficulties and doing justice to the biography of Abraham Lincoln. A motion picture star is constrained to give the correct solution of the problem of world disarmament—or worse, a motion picture star is asked to give her opinion of motion picture technique.

The eagerness of many shoemakers to desert their lasts may be the cause of much annoyance to a serious-minded authority besieged with pleas for his opinions on mat- ters ranging from cotton-raising to professional pugilism. Annoying interruptions must come from appeals to discourse on the scientific side of an invasion of his own field by such a last-deserting shoemaker. Such a case was that of the prediction (by Sir Oliver Lodge) that the moon will collide with and wreck the earth in the still distant future. A representative of the New York World sought advice on the ques- tion from Dr. Harold Jacoby, head of the department of astronomy at Columbia.

The printed account of the interview shows that Dr, Jacoby had a merry time. He discoursed on novels; the sort of person that would live on Mars if persons lived on Mars; his trip to England; farming in Kenya Colony, Central Africa: Rolls Royces; the English sense of humor; food, and the accessibility of encyclopedias.

Such treatment of such a matter might serve as a pattern for a crusade against last-deserters. The subject before Dr. Jacoby was not nearly as much a matter for concern as the fact that he could not recall the name of Rill Sykes' dog.

DEAN C. U. LAW SCHOOL DIES AFTER OPERATION

CANDIDATES ADMITTED AT GASTON MEETING

We regret the fact that the silent drama is silent no longer. Of course, the talking movie has long been casting its sound before it. The earlier short subjects, and the synchronized orchestral accompaniments that we have heard in the past, presaged the coming of an all-talking picture, but we did not expect it to come as soon as it did. Almost every theatre is installing electrical apparatus, and the old-style silent movie appears to be a thing of the past.

There was a time when you could enter a theatre, or a Cathedral of Motion Pic- ture, and be sure that even though the picture might be dull, you could have a nice little nap, with the crooning organ providing a suitable lullaby. Now you are kept awake by the snarl of the villain, the plaintive squeaks of the heroine, and the manly voice of the hero. Shots ring out, you hear the noises of the street, the raucous tones of the jazz band, and the sound of the entertainers, in those pictures which deal with "Kay night life." For a time you are amused, delighted by the novelty of the thing, hut after a while you are bored. There is too much sameness, it requires too much effort, to watch the flickering film, and listen to the muffled and sibilant voices. There is an air of unreality about the talking movie that we find neither in the legiti- mate theatre, nor in the old-time, silent movie.

Then, too, there is the added consideration of the voices of the actors. It is all very well to star the Barrymores, or other stars who have reached the screen after serving a time on the legitimate stage, but what about the other stars? What about that magnificent actor, Emil Jannings, who is a German, and the rest of the foreign stars, who are now appearing in American pictures? Will they be excluded from the pictures, or will the ingenious producers think up some scheme, similar to the scheme used by the great composer, Rimsky-Korsakoff, who, in the opera " Coq d'or," has one set of players, to act, and another set, concealed beneath the stage, to sing. Such a plan might work out well. With some handsome, but tongue-tied star doing the acting, and some silver-voiced, but not so handsome actor doing tht talking, we should have a good picture. And may we be preserved from pictures in Irish, Jewish, or any other kind of dialect!

The gentle art of studying is one which cannot be acquired without practice. Of course there are some misanthropic souls, who, when called upon to study, retire into a corner with a text-book, and go over the matter. Your true student will commit no anti-social act of this sort. He will turn to his room-mate, and say: "Hey, let's go over the Latin." If the room-mate agrees, they get their books arranged, and prop- ping themselves in a comfortable position, are looking for the place when Joe drops in.

"You are not going to study, are you?" asks he, in mock alarm. "Wait until I get my book, and I will do it with you." Joe leaves, and in about fifteen minutes, re- turns with his Cicero.

"Sorry to keep you, but I could not find the book." He fingers the leaves, and finally finds the place.

" 'Si quis est in me ingeni, iudices,'—what does that mean, anyway," one of the stu- dents inquiries in a puzzled tone.

"If there is anything of genius in me," replied another, who has on his lap the key to such mysteries. "You see," he continues, " 'ingeni' is in the dative case, dative of—of—of something or other."

"Yeah, that's right," remarked Joe. He does not want the conversation to trail off into the intricacies of syntax. "Say," he remarks, "do you suppose the test to- morrow will be hard?"

"Well, I don't know," replies one student with the air of a man who is weighing the matter carefully. "There is a lot of matter to be covered, you know."

"That's right," his companion affirms, "over two-hundred lines, and they are all hard."

"I think that two-hundred lines is too much to assign for a test; you can never get that many lines up in such short notice." The conversation resolves about the subject of assignments and tests for next ten minutes or so. During this time, Mike drops in to get a light. He hears the conversation, and is interested by it. He is taking a different course, and is personally of the opinion that the A.B. course is simple compared to the course that he is taking. He elaborates his views, possibly exaggerates his accounts of the amount of work that he gets in a night. The con- versation rages for a long time. Suddenly a bell is heard.

"Is that quarter to ten?" inquires one of the students in the tone of one who cannot believe his ears. A sound of opening doors convinces them that it is quarter to ten.

Joe rises from his semi-recumbent position, and as he leaves the room, says: "Let's get up early tomorrow and go over the rest of this Latin."

The others agree, and the study of Latin is postponed until the next day.

Georgetown Alumnus Victim of Blood Poisoning—An Eminent Authority on Constitutional Law—Practiced 12 Years in Native City of Worcester.

Dr. Peter J. McLoughliu, Dean of the Catholic University Law School, died Tuesday, October 2, at the Deaconess Hospital, Brookline, Mass., following an operation for blood poisoning. Dr. Mc- Loughlin was 54 ye#rs old and was con- sidered an authority on constitutional law. He graduated from the George- town University Law School in 1900 where he received degrees of master and bachelor of law.

Following his graduation from the Georgetown Law School where he also taught in several branches, Dr. McLough- lin practiced law in his native city of Worcester for twelve years before join- ing the Catholic University faculty.

Funeral services were held from his home at 35 Firrell Street, Worcester, on Wednesday morning and a high requiem mass was celebrated at St. Peter's Church of that city. Dr. McLoughlin is survived by three brothers, William I., John and Michael McLoughlin, and a sis- ter, Miss Katherine McLoughlin, all of Worcester.

LAW COURSE REQUIRES CONSTANT APPLICATION

Students Find No Short Cuts in Study—Intensive Training Starts Immediately—Mastery Requires Years but Reward is Great.

Faithful Attendance Urged by Moderator—Discuss Change of Meeting Night from Thursday to Monday.

Recently the Law School opened its doors and received into its halls represen- tatives from all the states and most of the territories of the nation. Men from all parts of the country have been drawn together by their common desire to make the study of law their life career.

Any of these men will answer those who claim that the law is slow and par- simonious by saying that undoubtedly they have never been in a classroom. For if they had, they would marvel at the celerity with which law professors dis- miss circumlocutions and settle immedi- ately to hard work. A predisposition against the waste of time is evidenced by the fact that there were assignments on the Bulletin Board two days before classes began! At least in this respect the law keeps no one waiting. If any- thing else were necessary to impress upon the student the seriousness of his under- taking. Prof. Keigwin furnished it in his first lecture. He denounced as "the most fallacious of all exploited superstitions" the idea that there are any short cuts to the acquisition of legal knowledge, or any smooth, easy road leading to success.

That the study of law is a difficult task, we have all learned by now. Hours spent over the books, sometimes without apparent profit, make the student realize that there is an immense field before him, and that he must, devote his full attention to it if he wants to cover it satisfactorily. At first he may be confused and discour- aged by the new methods of teaching, his failure to understand a case, his in- ability to put his thoughts into words. But once he begins to discern the logic of the law, he becomes its faithful fol- lower. To understand the development, the philosophy, and the practical applica- tion of our laws will require years of assiduous study, of constant driving, but the reward will be well worth it.

The Gaston Debating Society held its second meeting Thursday night, October 4, in the Philodemic room. Mr. Robert W. Criscuolo preisded.

Father Smith, Moderator of the so- ciety, reminded the members that their at- tendance at the meetings would be a vital factor in the welfare of the society and urged the debaters to attend regularly. Father Smith also suggested that the meeting night be changed from Thurs- day to Monday night. After a short dis- cussion it was decided that, due to the various activities of the debaters, Mon- day night would not be suitable to all of the members.

The Gaston Society admitted a com- paratively large group of very promising members of the Freshman Class. Those admitted were Messrs. Hickey, Howe, Gallow, Hendrix, Nevil, White, Glavin and Manning, all of New York; Mr. Stout, of Pennsylvania; Mr. Alexander, of Alabama, and Mr. Dyer, of Missouri.

Mr. Chapman was appointed official timekeeper of the society, and the meet- ing was adjourned until the following Thursday.

F. S. FRAT BEGINS SOCIAL SESSIONS

Interesting Speakers Engaged for First Smoker of Delta Phi Epsilon—Distinguished as First Organization of Its Kind in the World.

The opening of the active season of Alpha Chapter of Delta Phi Epsilon, Professional Foreign Service Fraternity of Georgetown University, took place on Friday night, October 5, at the chap- ter house, 2011 Columbia Road, N. W., where the first social event, a smoker, was held. Several prominent persons, including officers of the school, were present, and all talks delivered evinced as their subject the value of a career devoted to foreign service. The frater- nity extended a cordial invitation to all those at the School of Foreign Service to attend the affair.

During the summer which has just drawn to a close much work has been done on the chapter house, and it is now fitted to care excellently for those who will live in it during the current school year, and for those who should at any time wish to visit it.

Within a year after the School of For- eign Service was instituted in February, 1919,. Delta Phi Epsilon Professional Foreign Service Fraternity was orga- nized, thus becoming the first fraternity of its kind not only in the United States, but in the world. Its members are now scattered in every section of the globe, in the diplomatic and consular service, in the foreign service of the Commerce Depart- ment, or as representatives of private business. The record made by these prod- ucts of the School fo Foreign Service has been a splendid one, and it has redounded to the credit of their school, their fami- lies, and their country.

During the school year the fraternity will hold many social affairs at the chap- ter house, these consisting of smokers, dances, and lectures by well-known per- sons.

HILLTOPPERS SWAMP PENN. FOE 88 TO 0

Easy Victory Gives Blue and Gray Machine Opportunity to Open Up With Bag of Plays— Hannigan Runs 95 Yards for a Touchdown—Duplin Marks Up Three Successive Touchdowns in First Quarter.

Opening up with everything known in the way of football, the Blue and Gray eleven romped through the Susquehanna team to an 88-0 victory Saturday. The losers made but one first down against the Hilltoppers. This, by the way of an uncompleted pass which was awarded to the Pennsylvania team on the protest that a Georgetown player interfered with the reception of the ball. Otherwise it was a grand sweep for Georgetown. From the opening whistle to the closing gun it was a steady drive in the direction of the Susquehanna goal. The winners un- corked plays in the category of the spec- tacular, with everything from a 95-yard run to smashing line drives that carried the ball in Georgetown hands down the field time and again for a touchdown.

Twenty-five hundred spectators stood by to witness the complete annihilation of the visitors in weather that equalled in warmth that of early summer. It was almost too warm for football, but the mounting score gave Coach Little an opportunity to throw in his reserves, not only to relieve the regulars but to dis- cover just what strength was represented in the army of competitors for varsity berths.

For the first time this season the regu- lars who have been out of the running due to injuries started the game. Steve Barabas was at his old post at fullback. This was his first varsity appearance since the Syracuse game last year when the sturdy Georgetown back received a fractured leg that threw him out of the running for the remainder of the season. Johnnie Bozek, former Gonzaga star and

ELMER RIPLEY TO COACH G. U. BASKETBALL TEAM

Has Had 20 Years of Professional Experiences—Formerly Played With the Washington Palace Club and the Trenton Club—Is Excellent Tactician and Trainer.

Elmer Ripley has signed up to coach the Georgetown basketball team for the coming season, according to current re- ports coming from the direction of the office of the Athletic Association. Rip- ley coached last year's Blue and Gray court team through an undefeated season. They ranked among the leaders of col- lege basketball circles in the East. One of the most impressive feats of the year was a victory over the strong and much praised Navy five. Practice will start next month and with practically all of last year's team on deck for the season, prospects should loom exceedingly bright when the Hilltoppers trot out the ball for the opener.

Coach Ripley achieved fame in Wash- ington and the East for being one of the lust professional players in the game. I le was formerly a member of the Wash- ington Palace Club and gained quite a name in years prior to his Washington playing with the Trenton club. Ripley is a veteran of over twenty years of pro- fessional experence and his knowledge of

ame was notably marked in the work of his players. He is a keen deviser of

both offensive and defensive, which accounted for the low scores rolled up against the Georgetown team by op- ponents in the course of last season.

HOYAGRAMS By MALCOLM J. BRADY, '29

YEARLINGS DEFEAT GETTYSBURG FROSH

Despite last week's outlook on Georgetown's position in the scoring rating, the points rolled up in Saturday's game with the Susquchana College eleven, gave her a total of 119 counters. This rates the Blue and Gray squad as second highest scorer in the country to date. Lafayette l?ads the Hilltoppers with a total of 134 points. But the Georgetown crew now head into the tough part of the schedule. From all indications they should roll up an aggregate of over 20 points against Lebanon Valley Saturday. It is easy to figure out games on paper. The visitors may uncork an unpleasant surprise or Coach Little's team may snatch off another large sum of the tell-tale numerals to add to their mount- ing total.

The West Virginia Wesleyans, due to meet Georgetown on the following Saturday, started out their season by downing West Virginia, which is also scheduled to play the Blue and Gray eleven later in the season. The Wesleyans, however, met de- feat at the hands of New York University, by a 26 to 7 score last week. Later on Georgetown will open her season abroad with a game against N. Y. LT., in New York. The results of the game with the West Virginia Wesleyan team may, in a way, give a foreshadowing of what is to come when Georgetown clashes with the New York team. It may also shed some light on how we shall stand up against the West Virginia University eleven.

Saturday's little romp with Susquehanna cannot be considered good from the spectators' angle on the score. But every holder of the cardboard pass had an opportunity to get an eye full of some spectacu'ar football. In fact, he could have received an education in the game, for Coach Little's cohorts uncorked everything known in the game and a lot of new discoveries on the side. Johnnie Hannigan broke out in the spotlight again with his 85-yard sprint for a touch- down. John has been known to pull off performances of this nature in the past.

Announcements ivere made to the fact that the gridgraph machine in the gymnasium will be put into operation for the New York University name on November j. The athletic officials are making applications for a wire direct from the New York Sta- dium to tlic Ryan Gym, and the plays will be reproduced in detail upon the gridgraph a few moments after they are actually executed in Nczv York. This will be a great compensation to the students who will be unable to make the trip to the northern city to see the game.

The student handball tournament is just short of getting under way witli a large representation from the student body already entered in the competition. According to the report of the Manager of the Minor Sports, the upper classes have responded in large numbers. It is only the Freshman Class that has so far failed to sign up for this event. Perhaps there is some misunderstanding. The tournament is open to everyone at the Hilltop. It offers the Freshmen, as well as all others, an oppor- tunity to take part in some sport or other that does not enter into the classification of strenuous. It is entirely a student activity and since the faculty and Coach O'Reilly have made a special effort to provide diversions of this nature for the students, it is their duty to respond in appreciation. Many men of all classes can be seen each day taking an unofficial workout on the track or mile path. Why not concentrate your energy on something that will not only provide pleasant diversion and exercise, but also has an added zest of competition.

HEAVY COMPETITION IN HANDBALL JOUST

Many Line Up for Opening of Student Handball Tilt—Fresh- men Do Not Respond—Horse- shoe Tournament to Follow.

By EUGENE T. BSENNAN,

Manager Minor Sports.

In response to the article published in la^t week's HoYA, numerous applicants have entered their names in the tourna- ment.

A great interest has been manifested by the student body, but particularly the upper classes, only a few Freshmen trains having entered their names. Al- though it is too late now for this tourna- ment to incite in the Frosh the spirit of competition and interest in the less vigor-

ous branches of sports, it is hoped that a mure profound attention will be shown by this new class at the Hilltop in the future.

The courts will be marked and the reg- ulation handball will he used throughout the entire play-off. Matches will be played during the afternoons, until teams find it more convenient to substitute some other available period. Strict obedience as to scheduled time for match play. Results will he handed in at 32 New North not later than the evening of day matches are played, failure to do so will necessitate ruling a default. Rules and schedule will he published in the College Store immediately on completion.

On the completion of this handball tournament, one will he started in horse- shoe throwing. Because of the ever- crowded courts, such a contest will no doubt attiaet a large number of entries. \n article will he published in Till'. HoYA

previous to the call for applicants.

Pozo Intercepts Pass and Carries the Ball for 55 Yards in Spec- tacular Run—Georgetown Pre- serves Upper Hand Through- out Contest—Visitors Try Aerial Attacks but Fail to Gain Through This Method.

Georgetown's yearling team rolled up their second victory of the season Satur- day by downing the Gettysburg Frosh eleven by a 20-0 score. The Blue and Gray youngsters had the upper hand throughout the contest, keeping the ball well away from their own goal and in the territory of the enemy. Georgetown displayed strength on the defensive end which forced the visitors to resort, time and again, to an aerial attack. But they failed to gain either ground or advantage via this method of attack against the powerful forward wall of the Frosh.

Hornyak accounted for the first Georgetown touchdown early in the first chapter of the game. Pozo added an- other counter to the Hilltoppers' total when he caught a long pass and carried it over the line. Bozak intercepted a pass and ran 55 yards to land the ball within one yard of the goal. Hafley scored on the next play.

Hafley's punting was a notable feature of tiie game and he is accredited with one of the three counters scored by his teammates. The center position was cov- ered in a very thorough manner by Trembly, of the Freshmen, who made sure that no ground was gained through his pi st during the contest. Brennan's work at end netted him no small amount of at- tention.

FROM THE BENCH. By EDWARD S. CANTWELL, '29.

In routing the Susquemanna team Georgetown showed that the Mt. St. Mary's game was no set-up. She also proved the statement that she has a very powerful team and one of which before the year is over we shall all be proud.

The visitors were only able to score one first down, and that by an aerial at- tack. Most of their line plunges and end runs were smothered before they reached the line of scrimmage. They were rather weak on the defensive which, with the Hilltoppers' luck, gives the rea- son for the high score on Saturday.

There seemed to be no exceptional players or stars of the day for all per- formed like veterans. If special mention must be given it seems as if it should go to Iludack and Barabas, since it was their first appearance this season. Yet neither seemed in good enough shape to last four full periods, but there is no doubt hut that they will he before this week is over. All other members of the team will also have lost a few pounds, for Coach Little found many faults with the team on Saturday and will work hard to remedy them for the next game, which happens to he with Lebanon Valley.

With the exception of a few slight brises the Hoyas came out of the fray in good shape and will all be seen in the line-up again next week.

Saturday's game is merely another in- cident which goes to prove that George- town will he one of the leading football teams in the country if not the leader. She is now second of all the colleges in the East with the total number of points scored.

We can look forward to a better brand of football this Saturday and also more favorable weather than we have had in the past.

CRITIC DEFINES CAUSE FUTURE OPPONENTS OF EUROPEAN SUCCESS MAKE STRONG SHOWING

Constant Practice and Regular Training is Chief Factor At- tributing to Olympic Victories.

By ERIK ICJELLSTROM , '30. In last week's issue of THE IIOYV I

made the claim that, from a European point of view (as far as 1 had been able to get information through newspaper articles and discussions on the subject) the American representatives did not fail in the Olympic Games. But the Ameri- can public, I thought, had not stopped to realize the difficulties the American athletes had to overcome to show their best of shape at Amsterdam. Those that claim that America's athletes failed have not followed the development of track and field in other countries. They have not seen the change of opinion and of spirit in sports in Europe that has taken place since the World War. They have not realized that the European countries had prepared themselves for these Games more seriously than ever; that Olympic (■antes have become not only a sport af- fair but also a national affair, particu- larly to such a state as the German Re- public. "Those young men that do not participate in sport," the German Presi- dent Paul von Hindenburg once stated, "do not perform their duty to their coun- try !" Germany simply had worked to build up a team capable of showing that Germany has recovered from the blow it received in the World War. The fol- lower of German newspapers before the Games would have found, however, that Germany had altogether too high expec- tations of its men. They had performed wonderfully at the trial meets and in practice, but they did not realize that to lie a great performer in athletics is not the same as to be a winner in Olympic contests! When the Games were over, thy realized the difference. They ad- mitted that they had had a good lesson, and sportsman-like they promised to come back better prepared to overcome the dif- ficulties, which they had not previously realized. A German newspaper stated: "We still need four years of hard work to build up men capable of showing their best at the Olympic moment and not some days earlier or some days later!"

These words, in the German news- paper, well express what is really worth while in athletics. It is not the perform- ance in itself, but the performance done in the moment, when it is needed that gives to athletics its greatest value, the power of character building.

England and Finland seem to be the two countries that most fully have un- derstood the significance in this idea and made their men live and train according- ly. You seldom hear of England's ath- letes in the periods between the Olympic contests, still England has some of the greatest runners and hurdlers in the world. There is very little publicity around English sport and you will have to follow the high standard English sport papers closely to get an idea of the ability of English runners and hurdlers,

in the field events England hardly has any man of international quality.

Jackson, the winner of the 1500 meters race at Stockholm in 1912, was really the first man to show the way to the English runners in Olympic contests. His feat was repeated by A. W. Hill in L920, when Hill won both the 800 meters and the 1500 meters. Hill was excused from the try-outs in England and his coach stated that "when the day and the hour comes, England will find its man. Hill is not yet in the very best shape, but he will be when he is called out to the Olympic track." He kept his promise! Hill then was much over HO years of age.

Abrahams, who is said to have sur- prised the Americans by winning the 100 meters at Paris, was certainly no sur- prise to himself or to English athletic expel ts. For two years consistently he

West Virginia Wesleyan's Meet Defeat—Carnegie Tech Shows Great Form Against Ashland.

Our opponents went through a second week with only two of them meeting de- feat. New York University's powerful Violet team emerged the victors in a hard game with West Virginia Wesleyan, 26 in ;. The heavy Mountaineers made Chick Median's men show their best and the} came through with plenty of punch.

Carnegie Tech romped to any easy vic- tory over Ashland, (i() to 0, and showed such potential strength that they upheld Lawrence Perry's statement that they are

I the strongest elevens in the coun- try.

George Washington met defeat at the hands of Fordham's team, 20 to 0, and gave the Maroon their revenge over last year's setback by the Colonials. Major Cavanaugh has put most of his faith in Sophomores and so far they have proved their worth.

Duke was opposed by South Dakota in an intersectional game and the Southern eleven demonstrated why they are the best team in that institution's short his- tory by beating the "Farmers" 25 to 0.

Our rivals for the Homecoming Game for the third year in succession, West Virginia, conquered the Haskell Indians, 28 to 0, and showed up better than they have in their two previous games.

This Saturday the principal game among our opponents is between N. Y. U. and Fordham, two great metropolitan rivals, and it looks as if the Violet will have a hard fight to keep their slate clean. Carnegie Tech meets Thiel, while Wrest Virginia probably will lose in a close game with Pitt. On Friday Duke and Boston College clash in their annual bat- tle, w-ith B. C, after their victory over Navy, a favorite. However, the South- ei n team can upset the dope if they catch the Boston eleven not up to the form they showed last Saturday.

GRIDDERS SET GUNS FOR LEBANON VALLEY

Hilltoppers Confident of Victory —Game Promises to Be of Greater Interest Than Previous Contest—Team to Be Full Strength for First Time in Sea- son.

DRIBBLE IS RAPPED BY NEW COURT RULES

New Clause Is Added Which Dis- tinctly Defines Personal Fouls —Provision Made to Penalize Rear Guarding.

The eleven from Lebanon Valley will follow their fellow Pennsylvanians, Sus- quehanna, as the opponents of George- town on the gridiron this Saturday. The Lebanon team is considered one of the better of the second-class school teams and their role is usually that of sturdy opposition for the larger universities. Their most recent feat is a (i to 0 defeat of City College, of New York. George- town should be returned the victor, but at least it will be more of an attraction than the last two games at the Griffith Stadium.

To combat this foe, Coach Lou Little will have his full strength for the first time this season. Hudak is practically recovered from his leg injury, and by Saturday should be ready for a full game of action. Bill Morris will most likely be seen at center. The rest of the line will be intact with Carroll and Mooney, guards, Cordovano and Liston, tackles, Provincial and Tomanai, ends. The back- field will most probably be Hudak and Duplin, halves; Scalzi, quarterback, and Barabas at full back.

Looking back into the records of recent games against Lebanon Valley, we find that in 1925 they threw a scare into the great team of that year. The score stood but 6 to 0 at the half, and only frequent substitutions of fresh men in the second half finally wore down the Pennsyl- vanians and the game ended with the score 19 to 0. The following year the opposition given by this eleven was a bit below standard, and Georgetown romped off to a 50 to 0 win. No game was played in 1927, and this year the Lebanon school boasts of an undefeated team and one that is outstanding in the records of the school. It should be a real attraction.

The new basketball rules just issued for this year have taken another step in restricting the dribble, an action which follows close to that taken last year when the dribble was restricted to a single bounce, and then later rescinded after a period of stormy debate.

. A new clause is added (Rule 15, Sec- tion 9, under the head of personal fouls) which reads:

"A player shall not hold, trip, charge or push an opponent whether or not either player has possession of the ball. If a dribbler charges into an opponent, or makes personal contact with an opponent, without an apparent effort to avoid such contact, a personal foul shall be called on the dribbler.

"If, despite the dribbler's effort to avoid contact, personal contact ensues, either player or both may be guilty: but the greater responsibility is on the drib- bler if he tries to dribble by an opponent who is in his path.

"If the dribbler's path is blocked, he is expected to pass or shoot, that is, he ought not to try to dribble by an op- ponent unless there is a reasonable chance of getting by without contact. More at- tention than hitherto is to be directed to the dribbler's responsibility."

Among other changes are provisions designed to penalize guarding from the rear by a personal foul making it illegal for a player to capitalize his great height by tapping the ball and then catching it on two successive jump balls, and stating that "an unguarded player may hold the ball indefinitely in the court, but as soon as an opponent takes a position close by .(say within a yard) of the player with the ball, the latter must get the ball into play."

The new code also makes it clear that a ball striking an official does not become a dead ball.

had practiced at Cambridge University with only one thing in his mind, concern- ing athletics, "to show that England can produce a man that can beat the famous American sprinters." Up to then Amer- ica was unbeaten in Olympic sprints. He came to Paris, and he did not fail. He won ail his races, equalling the world's record in them all! Still some people prefer to claim that he had "only good luck."

Who had expected Eric Liddell to fly awaj from his challengers in the 400 meters at Paris? Few outside of ling- land, I am sure! Liddell had not even the common muscle development of an athlete. But he had the spirit! And it is the spirit that wins! That is the spirit that keeps the athlete in shape when conditions are different from those of his home tracks.

Perhaps the most striking example of them all is that of Douglas Lowe, twice an Olympic 800-meters champion, but in the meantime hardly heard about, when he was clearly beaten by Doctor Peltzer. Still none of his famous challengers had a chance to beat him that day at Am- sterdam ! He was calm, his whole ap- pearance was full of confidence, in his

was joy and the love to run after years of constant practice, to repeat his brilliant victory. He was out to win for England. He showed that openly, when, after his victory he stood in perfect at- tention in front of the British banner listening to his national anthem. Then he was called with right "the world's most perfect athlete," the King of the Olympic Games!

In Finland you have the names of Stenroos and Hannes Kolehmaiuen in front of a long list of names that have

fought for Finland in a similar way. Example after example could be found,

perhaps most frequently among men that have not had the physical ability to win, but have shown their appreciation of ath- letics by practicing to do their best per- formance at a certain long-bcforehand- determined moment. These men we re- gard as the real athletes! They have shown and still show the way to the greatest values in athletics, the building" up of characters! They are worthy to follow. If we all do, then sport will never lose its place in education. In this way we regard the values of athletics.

With these ideals of sport, I believe, a

part of the American public did _ not count, if they claimed that America's representatives failed because they were beaten by men that had not previously shown better performance than the Amer- icans, but by men that were determined to do so, when they were called upon at the Olympic Games.

Perhaps the Americans had more diffi- culties to overcome to show their best, than had the representatives of other nations. Perhaps were the Americans handicapped in this meet. Many circum- stances are open to discussion in this matter, which probably will throw some light upon the differences in sport in Europe and in America.

Ralph Duplin had a heavy hand in rolling up the Georgetown score with three successive touchdowns in the first quarter. Johnnie Hannigan turned the trick and sped down the field for 95 yards and a touchdown in the final period of the game, adding the finishing touches to a game of thrills in the way of beau- tifully executed plays and spectacular runs.

Schmidt, Dwyer, Maczees, Scalzi, Wil- liams and McCarthy all added their bit by way of touchdowns. Flood caught Wall behind the goal and netted a safety for the Blue and Gray machine. Two more touchdowns were missed when Swartz and Gehringer missed long passes from Scalzi and Gradner.

PROF. TOOKE RESIGNS FROM LAW SCHOOL

Has Accepted Position at New York University — Departure Regretted by Former Students —Profs. Roach and Alexander Added to Staff.

The law students, upon their return from their vacations, missed one of their best friends and one of their most capable instructors. Prof. Charles W. Tooke, who for many years taught Contracts, Sales, and Municipal Corporations at Georgetown, has moved his residence to New York City, and will teach Con- tracts and Municipal Corporations in the Law Department of New York Univer- sity.

Prof. Tooke will always be remem- bered by his pupils as a man who took a personal interest in every student; one who had their success at heart. An au- thority in every subject he taught; an editor of note, whose collection of cases on Municipal Corporations is in use in many of our leading universities, Prof. Tooke could understand the difficulties encountered by the uninitiated and was always ready to help him. Last year, when the then freshman class was strug- gling with the intricacies of the law of Contracts, Prof. Tooke held in his library an extra, optional class of one

O'CONNOR PRESIDENT MORNING LAW '30

Joseph Margolis Named Vice- President and Clayton Hol- linger Treasurer—Other Posi- tion Filled by Maloy, Adelman and Longo.

On Friday, October 5, the morning law class of 1930 held its first meeting for the purpose of electing its new officers. The class, which one year ago counted one hundred and ten members, has now dwindled to seventy; old, familiar faces, once regarded as fixtures, are no longer here, and few new ones have taken their place. We regret the absence of the old friends, we welcome the presence of new ones. Here they will find a class where it makes no difference whence they come, and where registration is the only re- quirement for full-fledged membership.

After a few words from the chair, the class elected Mr. Patrick O'Connor as its president. Amidst the plaudits of the entire class, Mr. O'Connor was heartily congratulated and wished well by last year's president, Mr. Manning, and as- sumed charge of the meeting. His first official act was to thank Mr. Manning and the other officers of last year for the devotion and success with which they served the class, and to express his hopes

W. MOONEY CHAIRMAN OF PROM COMMITTEE

Class '30 Planning Early for Main Social Event of Year — Com- mittee Will Be Announced Within Week.

McNeir Hall was the scene last Wed- nesday of the election of the chairman of the Junior Prom committee. The meeting was called to order shortly after 1 o'clock and the business of nomina- tions was brought forward immediately. Mr. Allan Gies, Mr. Peter Morgan and Mr. William J. Mooney were selected and voted upon. At the close of a par- ticularly exciting race it was found that Mr. Mooney, of Cleveland, Ohio, was the choice.

The Junior Class is greatly pleased with its selection and looks forward to a Prom that will greatly surpass any of its predecessors. The Junior Prom is the really important social event of the year here at Georgetown and it is with pleas- ure that the student body is anticipating the event.

ft is of note that this is the earliest election ever held and is expressive of the desire of the Junior Class to make the Prom of 1929 the biggest and best ever.

The committee will be chosen sometime during the coming week and announced later. The Freshmen will be interested in learning that the Prom is open to all Georgetown students, ft will be held some time previous to the Lenten Season and will find everyone present.

hour a week. There, surrounded by all his books, he would greet all comers; bid them make themselves at home; would light his pipe and then would proceed to answer all questions, and to solve all problems that the ingenious minds of embryo lawyers could devise.

Prof. Tooke leaves in Washington numberless admirers and friends. We wish him all sorts of happiness in his new position and may he know that wher- ever he is, the best wishes of the school will be with him.

Prof. Charles E. Roach and Prof. Arthur Alexander have been appointed to fill the vacancy caused by Prof. Tooke's departure. The Law School has been very fortunate in securing the serv- ices of these two capable lecturers and the student body has already had occa- sion to appreciate the real worth of their new professors.

that in the future the class would con- tinue to be as united and as fraternal as it had heen in the past.

Mr. O'Connor came to Georgetown last year from St. Bonaventure's, where he graduated after an A.B. course. In the classroom he has distinguished himself as a serious, conscientious, capable stu- dent. Outside of class his sincerity, his unaffected modesty, and his personality, have earned for him the esteem of all. He is a man who can make and keep friends. His election assures the class of another successful year.

Mr. Joseph Margolis, who led the class in scholastic proficiency, was elected vice- president. Clayton Hollinger, who hails from the coal mine regions of Pennsyl- vania, and who is on intimate terms with all the celebrities of the class (from Commander Holcombe to newspaperman Roddam), was elected treasurer.

Ed. Maloy, who is perhaps engaged in more school activities than any other student, was elected secretary without opposition. The post of sargeant-at-arms went to Dave Adelman, also unanimously. Jerry Culkins in nominating him asserted that for this job the strongest man would be best fitted and that he believed Dave to be the strongest. Once having granted

the major no one felt disposed to chal- lenge the minor, and the intercollegiate shotput champion was elccfed without going to the ballots.

Joe Longo. a chap who is always in good humor and who is one of the most popular members of the class, was elected historian.

The meeting was conducted in a fra- ternal fashion and with machinelike pre- cision. Twenty minutes after it was called all the officers had been elected and there being n further business it was adjourned sine die.

Mr. James A. Taylor died on October 4, 1928. He was a member of the class of '88. graduating that year with the de- gree of Ph.B.

In his day he stood in the very first rank of college pitchers, his superb skill in the box carrying the Blue and Gray triumphantly through several seasons. For many years he held the position of superintendent of transportation for the New York Edison Co.

Francis Degnen; second assist- ant, Richard Charlesworth; secretary, Thomas McGeary; sacristan, James Glavin. The meeting was characterized by a very large attendance. However, it is desired that the Sodalists be as large in number as possible. All those who have not handed in their names, Md are still desirous of becoming members, are requested to do so at the earliest oppor- tunity.

In a short address to the assembled Sodalists, Father Masterson, S.J., the Reverend Moderator, briefly reviewed the purposes of the Sodality. The Reverend Moderator reminded the Sodalists that the first requisite and prime motive of the association was to foster devotion to the Glorious and ever Blessed Mother of Our Lord; secondly, to aim at a more than ordinary goodness in its members. Father Masterson also laid particular stress on the fact that the Sodality has in the past shown a definite interest in the work of the Foreign Missions and should continue to do so in the future.

©n ©tber Campuses By this time every college in the country has opened and has settled down to the

so-called "grind." Most of them report enrollments exceeding those of previous years.

As estimated by the Bureau of Education, about 300,000 students have entered colleges this fall. President Lewis, of Lafayette College, comments that this number will be decreased 60,000 by the next year, and that at the end of four years it will have been cut in half.

Yale has abolished, by popular vote, the honor system in all but freshman classes. The chief reason given for this change was the necessity for reporting a fellow student when seen "cribbing."

*****

The traffic problem at the University of Minnesota has become so acute that if cooperation in parking cars is not obtained, the Board of Regents there has threatened to bar student cars from the campus.

***** A record of six sets of twins, enrolled in the freshman class, is claimed by North-

western University. *****

Another record might be claimed by the University of Illinois for eating over twenty thousand hot dogs at the five home football games last year.

The University of California spent $60,000 on its varsity crew this year. It ranked as one of the greatest eight-oared crews in the history of rowing.

THE HOYA

MEDICAL OFFICERS ASSUME NEW DUTIES

Stief Elected Class President— Members Occupied in Various Ways During Vacation Months.

Once again the portals of the George- town Medical School have been thrown open to the class of 1931. A few of the original hundred and thirty-odd members were victims of the law of survival of the fittest, but their places have been filled in by like victims of the previous class, leaving the battle formation prac- tically the same. The casualties were not entirely unsuspected in same cases, whereas in others there were few pro- promers to give any inkling of impending- ruin. To these latter few we extend our sympathy, and suggest in passing that they profit by their misfortune ,taking- advantage of this new opportunity offered them.

Now that the first year of our chase after an elusive M.D. is over, and the mysteries of Osteology, Histology, Physi- ology, Myology, Syndesmology, and sun- dry other ologies are somewhat less vague, it doesn't appear inappropriate to look back for a moment upon the past \ ear. It wasn't so long ago that Father Summers welcomed us as the latest crop of embryonic doctors. Soon after, the electii n of Messrs. Stief, Boland and Carmody as President, Vice-President and Secretary, respectively, followed by the appointment of Mr. Madden as His- torian, brought some organization into the class. The first quiz made us realize that football games and theater parties would he taboo for a few months. By Christmas time most of us were ready for a little relaxation before the mid- years, which left some sadder but wiser men in their wake. After the mid-years, v cial functions flourished for a time, but their duration was cut short soon after Easter by the gathering clouds of the forthcoming finals. Then came a siege of sleepless nights, hasty meals, and in- tensive reviewing for the battle of the year. Anatomy was the first to open hos- tilities, with Dr. Madigan as its able leader. Then came Bacteriology, Chem- istry and Toxicology, another joust with Anatomy under Dr. Duncan, and still another under Dr. Madigan. Military Science and Tactics, better known as ■'Army," made its bid, followed by Phys- iology, the last of the opposition, but fully as virulent as the others.

When the din of battle had faded away, most of the present Sophomore class was at work, making money or spending it. Some took refuge in foreign countries; some used their medical knowledge in hospitals, camps or at beaches. The coal mines of Pennsylvania and the sky- scrapers of New York City were vaca- tion playgrounds for many whose quest for a medical degree is hindered by finan- cial difficulties. Coats of tan were acquired on construction jobs as well as at the seashore or lake. Varied were the

G. U. BAND IN DRESS PARADE DEBUT

Musicians, Led by Deane Benson, Make Spectacular Showing in Initial Manoeuvers.

Although the appearance of the band at the Susquehanna game was the second of the season, it was at this game that our musicians made its marching debut. With perfect formation and precise step, our trim blue clad tunesters went through several picturesque movements without a flaw. At the bead of the band marched the drum major, Mr. Deane Benson, who with his natty uniform and high fur hat, was easily the outstanding member of the outfit.

Considering the short time the band has been practicing together, and the ap- pearance of twenty new members, it has made a very creditable showing. We hope that the band will be sent to the out- nf-town games in New York and Albany. We know that besides bringing inspiration and encouragement to the team, they will also bring praise to their Alma Mater.

To Mr. Karl Schaffer, the conductor, and Mr. Deane Benson, the drum major, should go much credit for their untiring efforts in making the band the success it is.

Hilltop History EIGHT YEARS AGO THIS WEEK.

From THE UOVA of October 8, 1980

Georgetown registration, now in excess of 1,850 students, bids [air to eclipse the 2,000 mark! Up on the Hill the College has enrolled the largest Freshman Class that has ever entered the Arts and Science Department, registering 178 students. The entire College, with a record-breakiue. Senior Class, of 54, now numbers 400. Down town at the Foreign Service School. Father Walsh has hem compelled to turn away double the 350 students which the school was able to admit. In the Dental and Medical Schools, the present 30] members already surpass by more than a 100, the enrollment of last year. Georgetown is indeed growing !

The "Blue and Gray," fresh from the pen of Larry l.ennon, Law. '22, and Frank Corcoran, Law. '21, makes a decided hit at the annual "Welcome Back" banquet, held in the Ryan Refectory, last Sunday night. The singing of the song by* Jack Sullivan, Fordham, '14, now- of the Law School, was the signal for a spontaneous outburst of enthusiasm and cheering that rocked the dining hall for several minutes. The song was repeated at the impromptu entertainment held in the Quadrangle after the banquet, and the entire student body soon caught on to the tune. Mr. Lennon is planning to have his song published as soon as possible, with a number of the copies ready for the game with North Carolina, this week-end.

The feature of the opening exercises of the Law School was the announcement of the formation of plans for the celebration of the school's Golden Jubilee, to be held on the 4th. .Mb, and 6th of December. Dr. George E. Hamilton. LL.D., Dean of the law faculty, presided at the exercises, and introduced Rev. John B. Creeden, S.J., President of the University, who presented the principal address. Enthusiastic plans are being made for the celebration, and a prize is to be offered for the Law School graduate who makes the longest trip to attend the celebration. Hon. A. S. Crossfield, '83, Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the Philippines, and R. W. Jennings, U. S. District Judge, of Sitka, Alaska, are expected to be among the strongest con- testants for the prize.

Georgetown runs away with season's opener, leaving St. John's, of Annapolis, on the zero end of an 80-0 score! The team had no difficulty at all in running up this total, and the feature of the game was Jack Flavin's punting. Flavin dispelled all the fears concerning our punting for the year by consistently booting the fall .">0 and fiO yards.

President Wilson has appointed Dr. R. S. MacFlwee, lecturer on shipping sub- jects at the Foreign Service School, as Director General of Jhe Bureau of Foreign and Domestic Commerce. The President has also reappointed Dr. Culbertson. lecturer on tariffs, as a member of the Tariff Commission.

Dean Hamilton, of the Law School, is in receipt of letters from Georgetown men who took bar examinaL ••■; in Wisconsin. Iowa. Ohio. Alabama. New York, and Oklahoma. Every Georg t >wn man passed. In Connecticut, eleven Georgetown men took the bar examinatior • nd nine of the eleven passed.

Before 1(5,000 spectators at the Griffith Stadium, the Leathernecks score in third and closing quarter on an intercepted pass and blocked kick. The first half of the game showed the ('.. U. warriors fighting with splendid ability, marching down the field to the Marine goal, wdiere they were held on the very goal line by the powerful Quantico team. Byrne, however, booted the ball squarely between the uprights at this point, for our lone count. The second half of the game showed the Marine strength, but Georgetown, as ever, showed true fight to the end.

The new Marquettc I lean is an old

Georgetown graduate, having received his A.B. degree in '94 and his M.D. in '95. For three years of his period at George- town he was the star shortstop on the baseball team. In addition to obtaining two degrees at Georgetown he has done graduate work in Boston, New York, Chicago, Dublin and Vienna. Before coming to the Marquette faculty in 1916 Dr. McGrath for five years was with the Mayo clinic at Rochester, Minn.

Foreign Service arranges frequently to have these men address the students and Faculty so that they will have an op- portunity to learn the latest and most authoritive thought from all part-, of the world. Arrangements are now being made for about ten such lecutres during the next three months, and announce- ments will be made in advance of each of these. As the students of the School are drawn from every state and from about 25 foreign countries, this system of spe- cial addresses gives them an unique op- portunity of keeping in touch with tin- latest developments of world affairs.

O'CONNOR PRESIDENT ST. JOHN BERCHMAN'S

McKenna and Miller Elected Vice-President and Secretary, Respectively — G 1 a v i n Ap- pointed Master of Ceremonies.

The first formal meeting of the St. John Berchman's Society was held on the evening of October 2. An election of of- ficers constituted the chief business of the meeting. Those who were chosen to guide the destinies of the St. John Berch- man's Society during the coming year are as follows: President, George O'Con- nor ; vice-president, Francis McKenna; secretary, Paul Miller, and master of ceremonies, James Glavin. The society has been most fortunate in securing Mr. McGowan, S.J., as the Reverend Mod- erator.

All those, especially of the Freshman Class, who are desirous of learning how to assist at the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass will be given every aid possible by the Moderator. A most impressive fact is that the members of the St. John Berchman's Society have always held what is considered to be one of the high- est privileges at Georgetown, namely, that of serving Mass. It is indeed noteworthy that all upper classmen who have been acolytes during past years have unani- mously signified their intention to con- tinue as members of the society during the coming year. Thus they.have set a worthy example for those of the Fresh- man Class to emulate.

The Reverend Moderator is especially desirous of filling the ranks, depleted by graduation, from the incoming class. Those who would like to become affiliated with the society are requested to hand in their names either to Mr. McGowan, S.J., or any of the officers.

The method of appointment in refer- ence to servers of Masses will be the posting of names on the Bulletin Board every Saturday for the coming week.

occupations, but all were united by a common zeal—to get into condition for another year of Medicine.

The vacation is over now, and we find ourselves back at school with a little more savoir faire and a larger amount of confidence than we had last year. Our new officers, Messrs. Stief, Tartaglione, and Nolan are carrying on the duties of President, Vice-President and Treasurer. The Historian, Mr. Delaney, was put to work as soon as classes started. New books have been bought, new schedules arranged, and the class as a whole is set- tling down to business. This year is called by many the hardest of the four. If it is, we are ready for it, to a man.

Our heartiest welcome is extended to the new President of Georgetown Uni- versity, Father , and to his predecessor, Father Lyons, we extend our Ins! wishes fin- success in his new line of endeavor. To the Freshman we hold forth a helping hand. Whatever points we can give them mi the different courses is theirs for the asking. It is our fervent hope that they will take our places next year while we take another step toward the coveted goal.

KAPPA ALPHA MOVES TO NEW CLUB HOUSE

Foreign Service Fraternity Changes Headquarters—Smok- er to Be Held October 12th.

The Alpha Chapter, of Kappa Alpha Phi Fraternity, a national professional fraternity, dedicated to the interests of foreign and domestic commerce, has an- nounced its removal to more spacious quarters. This flourishing organization of the Georgetown Foreign Service School is now located at 1525 Sixteenth St., N. W. The members feel rightfully proud of their chapter headquarters and are more than certain that it is in keep- ing with the high standards of George- town University.

To start the year off with the custom- ary "bang," a combined house-warming and home-coming dance was held at the Chapter House on Saturday evening, Oc- tober 6th, from 10 till 2. If the en- thusiasm and spirit in evidence at that dance are indicative of the future, Kappa Alpha Phi is on its way to another big year. The fraternity had among its guests for the evening a number of the first- year students, and according to all re- ports they were more than pleased in making their first contact with the Georgetown spirit.

A smoker for the new students, as well as those in attendance before this year, has.been set for Friday evening, October 12th. According to rumors emanating from the committee, something novel may be expected in the way of entertainment. It is realized that new men in the School of Foreign Service experience consider- able difficulty at first in becoming ac- quainted with their fellow students. For this reason it is believed that a smoker affords an opportunity, especially for those students who have just registered, to make friendships which will prove valuable at least during their sojourn at Georgetown. A most hearty invitation has been extended by Alpha Chapter, of Kappa Alpha Phi Fraternity to all stu- dents in the School of Foreign Service to attend this smoker, which will be held on Friday evening, October 12th, in the Chapter House, at 1525 Sixteenth St., N. W.

The faculty is in receipt of a reprint from the Annual Report of the Medical Department of the United Fruit Com- pany, for the year 1927, entitled "Malarial Hemoglobinuria," from the pen of Dr. Eugene R. Whitmore, Professor of Para- sitology and Pathology at the George- town University Medical and Dental Schools. The paper purposes to be a pre- liminary report on the Epidemiological Studies carried on by Dr. Whitmore in Cuba on Black Water Fever.

Professor Labat Tenders Recep- tion After Ceremony in St. Patrick's Church.

The officials of the School of Foreign Service were pleased to learn of the mar- riage of Air. Leon Dostert to Miss Mil- dred Baker, at St. Patrick's Church, on Friday, October 5, at 3:30 o'clock.

Mr. Dostert is a member of the Faculty of the School of Foreign Service, being an associate lecturer in the French De- partment. He was awarded the Bachelor of Foreign Service degree last June, and is at present enrolled in the Graduate Department of the School.

Mr. Dostert and Miss Baker were married by Father Cartright and were tendered a reception by Professor and Mrs. Jean J. Labat, head of the Depart- ment of Modern Languages at George- town University, at their home at 1632 Riggs Place immediately after the cere- mony. Many of the Faculty and students of the University were present at the marriage and reception. Immediately after the reception Mr. and Mrs. Dostert left for a motor trip through Virginia.

On Monday, October 8, Father Rector was a guest of Dr. Cloyd Heck Marvin, president of George Washington Univer- sity, at a luncheon given in honor of Dr. Albert Edward Winship, editor of the American Journal of Education.

Robert Sheehan, '27, stopped on his re- turn from Saratoga where he was best man at the wedding of his classmate, Andrew Saul.

GLEE CLUB REHEARSES FOR BUSY SEASON

Under the guidance of Mr. Donovan, the Glee Club is holding two weekly re- hearsals, in preparation for the coming season, which promises to be a success.

It is to be noted that Mr. Donovan is putting greater restrictions on the mem- bership, in order to give more individ- ual attention, and thereby insure a finer quality of music than ever before.

While the plans for the coming season are not as yet completed sufficiently to be published, several brilliant concerts are being considered. Mr. Donovan is par- ticularly pleased with the showing made during the rehearsals by the Freshmen members of the Glee Club.

Twelve Candidates Admitted at First Try-out Session—Fresh- men Give Evidence of Argu- mentative Ability.

The regular meeting of the White De- bating Society was held on Wednesday, October 3. As there was no business to be transacted the meeting was given over to the hearing of candidates desiring ad- mission to the society.

The following men were accepted: Messrs. McManus, White, Cannon, Flan- agan, Gibbons, Dyer, English, McEvitt, Hoffman, Powell, Cassidy and J. Murphy.

The organization was pleased with some of the fine material that is entering and with last year's members here seems to be little doubt that its splendid record will go untainted by defeat.

If any others wish to join the society, either Freshmen or Sophomores, they will give their names to John Reilly, 16 Ryan, or any officers of the society.

Charlie Bruns, now a student at the Washington College of Music, and for the last two years leader of the George- town Collegians, the College orchestra, was married to Miss Lucille Terry, of Washington, at St. Paul's Church in this city on October 11.

MEDICAL SITE CHANGED (Continued from page i)

Road site. In the event of these plans being carried out, the hospital buildings will probably be utilized for the Law School, now situated on E Street.

Plans for the medical center contem- plate next the erection of a building to house an institute of chemical-medical re- search, for which the University has al- ready raised a large sum, in addition to a recent gift of $150,000, toward its per- manent endowment.

The design for the Medical-Dental building itself has also been altered. In- stead of eight stories, as originally de- cided upon, it will be only three stories high and will cover much more space. This will provide greater convenience in the arrangement of laboratories and class- rooms. The structure will be executed in red brick and the architectural design will be of the colonial period with ex- tensive wings. All the buildings even- tually located on the site are to conform to the general style of colonial architec- ture.

In connection with the new building, to which an attractive approach will be made from Reservoir Road, the Univer- sity plans to establish on the grounds ample recreational facilities for the fac- ulty, hospital staff and student body.

The old medical and dental building on H Street is entirely inadequate for those departments. The limitation which the old building placed on the number of stu- dents, and the need of more modern equipment are the prime reasons for the construction of a larger building nearer the hospital.

Printers from Harrisburg, Baltimore, and New York are being considered. The size of the book is to be changed to nine inches by twelve inches. The issue is to contain the same number of pages as last year's issue.

There will be a consistent classical theme throughout the book which will prevail even to the individual write-up. Some of the new features of the book are the Bonde process divisional plates, which never have been used in the book before. There is a selection of scenes in regular process color of from four to eight plates. The views are said to be the most beautiful ever taken of the Georgetown campus. The cover of the book is another feature. It is an exact copy of the original Domesday Book of

William the Conqueror. The book is divided into seven sections: The Hilltop, the Law School, the Medical School, the Dental School, the Foreign Service School, Athletics, and Humor. An ad- vertising campaign is to be carried on, and it is expected that there will be over fifty pages of advertising in the book. The ads are to be made as attractive as possible.

Within a week the Seniors of the Hill- top will have individual and group pic- tures taken at the Edmonston Studio. All snapshot pictures must be turned in to William M. Slavin, photographic edi- tor, or David Clark, staff photographer, before December 15. No material will be accepted after that date as the book is to go to the printer on that date for de- livery to the subscribers about May 15.

The book this year should be a great success, for Father Smith, the Modera- tor, is taking a personal interest in the edition, and James O'Donnell, the busi- ness manager, is working with great zeal towards the book's success. Mr. O'Don-

nell plans to sell nine hundred and fifty copies, which is an increase of two hun- dred over last year. Every member of the student body is advised to subscribe to the book. The college will be can- vassed in about two weeks. There is no better way of preserving school memories than to make a collection of four years' Ye Domesday Booke.

Adolphe JVtenjou pun OLD GOLD as camera records the blindfold test

The test was conducted by responsible witnesses who asked Mr. Menjou to smoke each of the four leading brands, clearing his taste with coffee between smokes. While the camera recorded the test, only one question was asked: "Which one do you like best?"

"I've discovered a new way of mixing business and pleasure. The parts I play call for the constant smoking of a cig- arette ... I probably average one cig- arette to every hundred feet of film. 'In the blindfold test I discovered one so smooth, so considerate of my tongue and throat that even the business of wholesale smoking while we're shoot- ing scenes will be a pleasure. The ciga- rette I voted for proved to be OLD GOLD."

W/ry you can pick them

Three types of leaves grow on the tobacco plant . . . coarse top-leaves, irritating to the throat . . . withered ground-leaves, without taste or aroma . . . and the heart-leaves, rich in cool and fragrant smoking qualities. Only the heart-leaves are used in OLD GOLDS.
