These lectures are a foundationsomewhat similar to the Otts Founda-tion bore at Davidson. Heretofore aclergyman has been invited to speak,this being the first time a layman hasever been asked to conduct the lec-tures. This change was brought aboutby Dr. W. T. Thompson, of Richmond,who decided last year that it wouldbe well ty have a layman discuss themeaning and functions of the religiouslife.

While visiting in Decatur Dr. Hoodwill be the guest of President McDow-ell Richards, an alumnus of DavidsonCollege.

The invitation to deliver these lec-tures is an honor not only to Dr.Hoodbut also to the college.

Three Davidson Professors AreProminent inConvention

Dr. T. W. Lingle, Dr. P. H. Gwynn,and Dr. W. P. Cumming of the David-son faculty attended the recent meet-ing of the North Carolina EducationalAssociation and playedprominent partsin its activities. The association metMarch 23rd and 24th at Raleigh.

Dr. Lingle attended the meeting ofthe council for higher education as amember of a committee meeting there.Dr. Gwynn presided over the councilfor higher education at which JulianMiller, columnist for the Charlotte Ob-server, was a principal speaker.

Professor Cumming,amember of theEnglish Department at Davidson, ad-dressed the council of English teacherson the subject, "Character BuildingThrough the Teaching of English Lit-erature." He pointed out several meth-ods by which literature could be usedto enable the students to see the mean-ing and the values of life.

He suggested that the studentthrough the reading of biography andthrough a discussion of situations foundtherein might be aided in forming atruer conception of moral and socialvalues. Emphasizing the importanceof a stimulating, clear, organizedthought through composition, he illus-trated the lack of clear thinking onmoral and social problems in collegeand public life.

Cumming pointed out several waysin which the professor might equiphimself for character training in thestudent and emphasized the value ofintellectual hunger in the teacher as astimulus for the student.

The three faculty members returnedfrom their activities in Raleigh Satur-day night after the committee meet-ing had formally adjourned.

Last week-end the Union TheologicalSeminary sent a deputation to David-son consisting of three men,Joe Clow-er, J. A. Jones, and Fred V. Poag.Jones graduated from Davidson in1931, and Poag in 1930.

Poag spoke at the regular churchservice Sunday morning,March25, andJones at the vesper service that night,and also in chapel '"Monday morning.Clower preached at the eveningchurchservice.

The vesper service Sunday night wasled by Bob Smith of the Junior class.After an organ prelude by KennethScott and a hymn, the scripture wasread, which consisted of selectionsfrom the Psalms. Another hymn anda violin duet by W. J. Robinson andJ. H. Ross followed, after which MackHolland led the assembly in prayer.

The speaker, better known as "Jas.A." Jones, opened his sermon by say-ing that we arc living in a changingworld. Philosophers, preachers, teach-ers, business men,economists, and psy-chologists arc perplexed with changingconditions, and ?re constantly trying toadjust themselves to new trends ofthought.

The changes arc found even in relig-ion, but there are three fundamentaltruths that are essential if our livesprosper.

Chemistry StudentsSee McClaren Plant

Managerof PlantExplainsProc-esses toClass

iOn Wednesday, March 21, Professor

H. B. Arbuckle's chemistry 6 class en-joyed a visit to the McClaren RubberCompany's plant in Charlotte.

Mr. Miller, manager of the plant,personally explained to the class thesource of their rubber products, itspreparation in field and factory, andthe final stage in which crude rubberemerges as a finished automobile tire.

Manager Miller further explainedthat the McClarcn Company has oneof its finest plants located in Charlotteand that their principal field of busi-ness is centered in the Southern andCentral States. Most of their cruderubber is exported from Brazil. Theplant is well equipped and modern inevery respect, from the giant com-pressing machines to the ever-burningmercury vapor lamps that furnishlight for the whole factory.

The Palmer Street factory has fortwenty years stressed the building ofheavy duty truck tires, and today thisfactory manufactures some of the fin-est truck tires in the entire world. Itis estimated that a skilled workmanis able to make a tire in approximatelyone hour and fifteen minutes. In sev-eral departments requiring the use ofchemicals, gas masks arc worn by theworkers.

The twelve members of the classwere divided into groups and takenthrough the factory by guides whoexplained the various processes entailedin the manufacture of a tire.

Grier Martin'sFatherDies atGeorgiaHome

The many friends of Grier Martin,alumni secretary of Davidson College,were very sorry to learn of the deathof his father, who died last Thursdaynight from injuries received in an au-tomobile accident. Mr. Martin's deathwas very sudden and came as a shockto all those who knew him.

Grier Martin went to his home inCovington, Ga., immediately upon hear-ing of his father's accident, the causeof which is unknown at the presenttime.

The Davidson friends of Grier Mar-tin joined him with deep sympathy inhis time of bereavement. The timeof Grier Martin's return toDavidson isindefinite.

Davidson Teams WillMake Vacation Trips

Interesting Holidays Planned byOther Students

Now that the greatly anticipatedEaster holidays are almost here, it isinteresting to note just how and wheremembers of the student body intend tospend them.

The tennis team will take it uponthemselves to travel to the

"Land of

Flowers," and will encounter six teamsduring their vacation period. The firstpart of their program calls for a tripto Savannah, Ga., where they willspend one night. Then Thursday after-noon at Gainesville they will encounterthe University of Florida tennis teamin the first match of the season. Sat-urday the team will meet Rollins Col-lege at Winter Park, Fla., and thenwill begin the return trip north, meet-ing Emory and Georgia Tech at At-lanta, Filrman at Greenville, S. C, andfinally the University of South Caro-lina at Columbia.

The baseball team will enjoy a trip,too, although a very short one as com-pared to that of the net team. Theyare scheduled to meet Carolina in twogames, one at Gastonia Saturday, andthe other at Concord Monday. How-ever, during the rest of the vacationperiod the team will return and con-tinue practice on Richardson Field.

Several members of the student bodyhave announced their intentions ofmaking a trip to New York. They areplanning to leave Thursday by auto-mobile and return to the campusWednesday morning.

There are still other men who be-lieve that a better time can be had byremaining upon the campus. However,as usually is the case, some irresistableforce attracts them to Charlotte,Greensboro, or other points, where theycan enjoy the company of their girlfriends.

Exhibit of GermanArt Is Given HereMost Popular Picture Will Be

Given to College

The exhibit of German art, broughtto Davidson College under the auspicesof the Carl Schurs Memorial Founda-tion, which has been on display duringthe past week, closed today. The pic-ture which received the most votesduring this time will he presented tothe college this summer, it was an-nounced.

During the week-end, this exhibitwas taken for the second time to Ra-leigh at the request of the State De-partment of Education. Tin* reason forthis was the three-thiy teachers' con-vention hold there.

The collection was displayed for twodays at the Carolina Hotel and at theliu.fli Motion-High— School, wli>rr.most of the meetings took place. Itserved as the basis of an illustrativelecture, given by Mrs. Johnsen princi-pally to the art teachers, on GermanArt and Etchings. These works ofart had formerly been shown in Ra-leigh for two weeks during January.

The purpose of the exhibit is to en-courage appreciation of art among stu-dents and to stimulate interest in Ger-man culture. While it is taken to themajority of the big universities, it isalso shown at many smaller placeswhere people have no opportunity tosee and appreciate German art.

After leaving Davidson, the art col-lection will be shown in Charlotte fortwo weeks under the auspices of theWoman's Club. It will also be taken tocolleges ill South Carolina, probablygoing as far south as Charleston bythe end of the school year.

The modern wing of the exhibit isall original, containing the works ofthe most important illustrators, paint-ers, and sculptors, as well as special-ists, in the graphic arts. Many of theseare the first impressions of aplate andare consequently very rare.

NEWS DIGESTBy DOPEY McCALL

BIG STRIKE AVERTEDAn automobile strike involving near-

ly two million workers and threateningthe moves made against the depressionwas narrowly averted by the concil-iatory measures of General Johnsonand President Roosevelt. The troublestarted because the automobile mag-nates refused to recognize the Ameri-can Federation of Labor and the work-ers protested. All the workmen in theplants, the dealers, the salesmen, andall others connected with the industrywere threatened with unemploymentbecause the industrial leaders wereprepared to fight to the last ditch.They felt that it was up to the Federa-tion to recognize their right and abilityto run their own business as well aslor them to recognize the labor organ-ization. The truce was of great im-portance to the administration and tothe general public.

PHILIPPINE INDEPENDENCEThe question of Philippine independ-

ence, discussed and rediscussed eversince the close of the war with Spain,was finally settled last week when itwas voted by Congress 'to give theislands a commonwealth governmentfor ten years under the supervisionof the United States and then theyarc tohave complete independence andtheir own republic. The bill called fora constitutional convention to meet inOctober and there draft the measuresto be used during the ten-year transi-tion period.

NEW NAVYFollowing the example of France,

Kugland, and Japan, the Congress ofthe United States has voted a half-billion dollars for a huge naval build-ing program. The bill provides forthe construction of one hundred de-stroyers and subs, a new airplane car-rier, and one thousand new airplanes.The program will cover seven yearsand President Roosevelt is ready tosign the bill, but the speed with whichthe operations will be concluded willdepend upon the generosity of thebudget bureau.

1NSULL AGAINInsult must be enjoying life more

now than he did when he was a Chi-cago magnate and only had to flirt hismoney toget anything he wanted. Thatat least is the moral of many a novel,e. g., that money does not mean happi-ness but rather the contrary since thebest things in life are enjoyed morewhen they are harder to get.

With very little fortune left, the oldman chartered his own boat and head-ed for Abyssinia where lives as kingthe descendant of King Solomon andthe Queen of Sheba. The once proudmillionaire is to give the "lionof Juda"a small fortune provided by some of

,his Chicago friends and there the oldman will finish his days away fromthe avenging justice of the many cred-itors and paupers he left behind him.And that, my friends, is more fancifuland more true than any novel.

NEW ANAESTHETICA new anaesthetic which physicians

believe will revolutionize operations hasbeen demonstrated in the Sinai Hos-pital in Baltimore. This new substance,as yet unnamed, is a white powderwhich will put the patient to sleepwithin twenty second after it is given.It is dissolved in water and given asa hypodermic injection. There are nobad after-effects and the patient caneat a full meal both before and afterthe operation.

CATASTROPHEA blaze sweeping across Hakodate,

an important Japanese coast town oftwo hundred thousand souls,' causedthe loss of over eighty per cent ofproperty and about one thousand lives,it was stated in a report from TokyoWednesday. The fire began when sev-eral chimneys were toppled over in agale and the wind fanned the risingflames to all parts of the city. Fire-men battled the fire all that night andmost of the next day without success,but the battle finally ended when thefire could find nothing else to burn.It was one of the greatest tragediesin Japan since the late earthquake.

ROUMANIAThe recent attempted assassination

of King Carol of Roumania has re-sulted in prison for several of the mostfamous names in the Roumanian cap-ital. A scoreof prominent intellectualshave been arrested, among them Vic-tor Gomoiu, one of its leading sur-geons. The police have attempted tosuppress the names of the ring-leSderswhile they are establishing a connec-tion between the attempt on the lifeof the king and the recent murder ofPremier Duca, who was shot down ina railway station after a visit to Carolat his country estate.

DEPUTATION FROMSEMINARY SPEAKS

(Continued from page 1)The first fundamental need is "a

definite belief in a personal God." TwoKreat tragedies today are atheism andindifference. The most widespread ofthese two is indifference;

It is a privilege to attend Davidson,he stated, but it is also a great respon-sibility because of the chance whichwe have to be Indifferent to the wordsof God. Man must believe in a definiteGod. He must not have an abstract be-lief, but must believe in "a God whois Father, Lord and Master."

The second essential need is a de-voted relationship in our hearts toJesus Christ. We must know Christas Lord. There are two great thingsthat will bring one to God :prayer andthe Bible.

The third fundamental is a "definitesen.se of individual, Christian, andmoral responsibility." We need a so-ciety of men and women who realizetheir responsibility. Christ will holdeach person responsible for his ownlife. This, and responsibility for thelives of others, is true Christian serv-ice.

Being a Christian is not easy becauseit is not easy to do these three things.Mr. Jones closed his talk by urging usall tobelieve in these things, and closedwith a prayer.

The meeting was concluded by ahymn and the benediction by Dr. Wal-ter L. Lingle.

SPRUNT ELECTEDUY» PRESIDENT

(Continued from page 1)chosen later. At present, this boardincludes five members of the faculty,the "Y" president and secretary, threemembers of the Senior class and twomembers of the Junior class.

On Other CampusesA law has been passed in Cali-

fornia which prohibits high school stu-dents from becoming members of anysecret organization other than thesame type as the Hi-Y and DeMolay.. . . Thus some college frats in thatstate are liable to prosecution. How-ever, the fraternities contend thatpledging a man does not make him amember of the organization, so highschool students continue to wear pledgebuttons secretly.

Forty per cent of the entire studentbody at the University of Georgia arecither earning or borrowing money topay their way through college. Onehundredand seventeen of the 524 earn-ing their money are employed underthe Federal Emergency Relief Admin-istration.

At Randolph-Macon the non-frater-nity men made higher averages thanthe fraternity men during the firstterm. The student body average was78.

Students at Maryland are attempt-ing to abolish final examinations. Theirlatest attempt consisted in having six-teen fraternity and sorority leaders ex-press their dissatisfaction to one loneleader who upheld the present system.

A certain co-ed at the juniordance at the University of Minnesotawas persuaded to take off her shoes inorder to reduce her height advantageover her escort so that a photographof the leaders would present a moreuniform appearance.

EXHIBIT OF GERMANART IS GIVEN HERE

(Continued from page 1)particularly interesting, since this ma-terial is not often employed. Nueckel,quite well known in America as an il-lustrator, has published a novel calledDestiny, in which the entire story is

'

portrayed by means of pictures. Threeof his original lead cuts are in thecollection being shown here. They allshow a great deal of animation andimagination, as well as much technicalskill.

Some of the pictures which createmost discussion are those done in theabstract and cubistic styles. These aretwo of the types of art developed dur-ing 1905 and 1925. They are the artist'seffort to discover new ways of ex-pressing himself. This type of art rep-resents anexperiment to interpret ideasin geometrical pattern form or tocorrelate art with music.

As a background for students ofGerman art, a set of reproductions ofthe old masters of the fifteenth andsixteenth centuries is being shown.These represent the engravings, wood-cuts, and water colors of Duerer,Cranach, Holbein, and their contem-poraries. One of the favorites is astudy for a painting of Saint Jeromerepresenting the head of an old man.It is done with extreme care and at-tention to realistic detail. One of themajor reasons for the success of theseold masters was the' assiduity withwhich they studied the details of theirsubjects, taking nature for their guide.

being published a complete list of all those whoare out for freshman and varsity track and var-sity baseball. The authorities wish that the stu-dents, that is all students, whether members ofthe "D"Club or not, report all violationsof train-ing rules.

They desire to build what might be termed an"esprit de corps" among Davidson College ath-letes . . .an honest devotion to sound athletictraining and wholehearted participation in allsports. A worthy objective, but one that can bereached only by the complete co-operationof thestudents and the athletes themselves.— R. P.-T.

WHY NOT EXAMINETHE FACULTY?It is interesting to note that at several col-

leges students are charging that members ofthe faculty should be examined each year justas the students themselves are.

Students at Union College in Schenectady,N.V., asked faculty members the following ques-tions just "to see how many instructors are add-ing strength to the college and how many arcdoing their job right":

"Does he find his greatest interest in his stu-dents and in intellectualpursuits?

"Does he seek to enlighten his students, ratherthan to make themrecite fundamentals?

"Dues he try to introduce them to life andthought, not coach them to pass examinations?

"Does he put himself forward as a dispenserof truth, not as an ingratiating vaudevilleactor?

"Does he give the student all that he has ofscholarship, wisdom and understanding, despitetheir supposed immunity to such?

"Does he stimulate the mind of the studentto suggest ideas and to corelate the loose end ofinformation?

"Is ho striving to be a personal friend of thestudent, a guide and an inspiration?

"Is he enthusiastic, aiive, free from all dullpedantry and dogma?"

The students went on to say that it is theprofessor who makes the college, and a collegeis only as good as its worst professor.

"The Daily Illini," publication of Illinois Uni-versity, made a similar suggestion that its in-structors be given an examinationto see wherethey stand. Here is an editorial from thatpaper:

"What's new in education? About this timeof the year we are forced to look over schedulesfor the coming semester. We do so withoutmuch enthusiasm for the most part, for we real-ize there is nothing new in the time table.

"Of course, some well-meaning adviser willinform us that if we haven't taken geodetics,we should because it will give us new fields toconquer. Or if there has been no economicscourse on our program, we should take one tomake us realize better what is going on in theworld these days. All of which is true if weapply the definitionof new as anythingof whichwe have previously had no knowledge.

"But what is the geodetics instructor going togive his class that he didn't give last year? Whatwill the economics or psychology professor tellhis students that the ones last semester couldnothave learned? What new variants or meth-ods willbe made use of that were not availablebefore? In other words, are we sure that ourinstructors are not stagnating, are they merelydoing research in dusty bookshelves without giv-ing a thought to the things of today which areaffecting them and which they in turn may alsobe changing?

"Unfortunately, many do not feel impelled topresent new material because they know theircourse is 'required.' Since the student must takeit, why make any special attempts to make itmore interesting? If it was good enough lastyear, why change it now?

"Perhaps a solution could be had in a systemof examinations for instructors at the end ofeach school year. In all fairness to the student,he should be certain that the man who teacheshim is also able to 'get a passing grade.'

"At present we have no idea as to how thiswould be taken care of— who would give thequizzes or who.would do the grading. And wedo know that the suggestion is not beingmadein a facetious frame of mind, but with all se-riousness in intent and purpose, for the protec-tion of the student and the stimulation of thefaculty members."

during the past year, the following are eligiblefor editorship of this publication for 1934-35, and'are hereby nominated:

GEORGE L. GULLETTE,JACK HELLINGER,E. FRED McPHAIL,BEN L. ROSE,KENNETH D. WEEKS.

ONLY Fiju tR PAGES TODAYBecause of the absence ofGrier Martin, alumni

secretary, from Davidson, there is no AlumniPage this week. Martin was called to his home

«*in Covington, Georgia, last week on account ofthe sudden death of his father, and since thereis no one here familiar with the alumni secre-tary's work, material for an Alumni Page thisweek was not assembled.

The loss of this page together with the, lossof several advertisements this week forces thisissue to be of only four pages.

There will be no issue of "The Davidsonian"next week since Spring Recess opens tomorrow.intl rinses Wednesday, April 4.

THE SPIRIT OF THE "D" CLUBRecently the "D" Club accepted a new consti-

tution under which to operate in the future. Twoweeksago the complete document was publishedin "The Davidsonian." Last week an editorialexplainedseveral of the features of the new con-stitution of Davidson's major athletic organiza-tion. We feel, however, that the primarv ob-jective of this new developmenthas not yet beenful]y understood and appreciatedeither by thosechiefly concerned or by the student body.

We believe that all this effort has been spentin an earnest endeavor,on the part of those whoare sincerely interested, to build up a spirit ofsportsmanship and honesty among the wearersof the "D" as regards their relations with eachother, the coaches, and the student body. "Hon-esty in what respects?" is the question that nat-urally follows.

A member of the "D" Club who has takenupon himself the obligations inherent to the fun-damentalnature of that body as now constituted,has agreed to abide by the regulations as setforth and to do his utmost to see to it that hisfellow members do likewise. Now his is a se-rious proposition and one that cannot be setaside without seriously compromising the integ-rityof the individual. Probably one of the mostimportant items is the fact that he has promisedto follow the training regulations explicitly. Ifhe does not do so, he is cheatinghis teammates... by not shoulderinghis shareof the responsi-bility, and by perhaps ousting a candidate fromthe team who has conscientiously trained, butwhounfortunatelylacks some measure of abilitythat the other possesses. Thus he enjoys privil-eges and rewards that do not rightfully belongto him.

Meet With CarolinaSaturday Called Off

Dual Track Meet Cancelled Be-cause of Weather

'A steady rain which churned thetrack on Richardson Field into a softand muddy condition made it necessaryto call off ili.' dual meet that wasscheduled last Saturday with the Uni-versity of North Carolina. The uni-versity had sent a team of champion-ship calibre to meet the Wildcats andit is to he regretted that the inclem-ent weather prevented the studentbody from witnessing these outstand-ing athletes in action.

Davidson's tracksters, under the di-rection of Captain Pritchett, hadtrained diligently in preparation forthis contest and were anxious to com-pare their strength with the high-classopposition offered by the Tar Heels.In Cochran, Evans, McPhail, andArmistead, the Wildcats have a nu-cleus around which Captain Pritchettis endeavoring to build up a strongteam.

Robert Crosland ToCoach Tennis Team

Will Also Help With Freshmenand Beginners

Davidson has procured Robert M.Crosland, former Middle Atlantic ten-nis champion, to coach tennis for thisseason. He will be on the courts everySaturday afternoon at 1:30 o'clock tocoach the varsity. However, he willdevote some time to the freshmanteam and beginners in the fundamen-tals of the game.

Crosland has been one of the fore-most tennis players of this section. Be-sides his Middle Atlantic championship,he was for several years a top-notchcrin the southern championship tourna-ment, at one time runner-up. He hasalso won many minor tourneysthroughout the South.

In-spite of the fact that Crosland isin business and has been coaching pro-fessionally in his spare time, he hasdeveloped such stars as I.enoir Wright,former star of the University of NorthCarolina championship team, and Ted-dy Burwell, Burwell showed his abil-ity in the Wimbledon tournament byrunning the famous Cochet to five sets.

Captain N. G. Pritchett has securedthe services of Crosland not only as agreat help to the varsity but to stimu-late interest in this sport.

|5PAND0M«fc.

Although it is legally spring, OldMan Winter lias certainly made a val-iant last stand. The weather Mondayafternoon, when the Wildcats were de-feated by Michigan State's Spartans,was much better suited to football orice skating. The extreme cold was re-sponsible for a great deal of the looseplay which was exhibited. The bitingcold made the ball hard to handle,and a good many errors were made byboth teams. The Wildcats just didn'tseem to be able to connect with thespheroid at the proper times. How-ever, Woody Burns, whohas an almostsacred position to fill, and WimpyRavenel both turned in nice perform-ances. Hums handled some hot onesaround the initial sack with mid-sea-son form.

On account of the rainy, coldweather last Saturday, the David-ion student body wa» deprived of"eeing some real clan on the cin-der track. The Carolina team,which recently won the ConferenceIndoor garnet, has a number ofrecord holders. The boys fromChapel Hill will also be leadingcontenders for the outdoor title,and you would have seen a lot ofgood men in action.A rather amusing incident occurred

Thursday afternoon when some of theCarolina men were taking a workoutduring the freshman track meet. Le-Gore, Carolina's record-breaking jave-lin thrower, was tossing a javelinaround rather aimlessly when one ofthe High Point boys asked, "Can youthrow that thing?" LeGore modestlyreplied that he was not so good; andas he said it, he trotted along andtossed it about one hundred and sev-enty-five feet. On his next throwwith a little more effort, he hurled itsome six feet beyond the two hundred-foot mark. The high school boy waslast seen moving sheepishly away and'"possibly" realizing that he could anddid

"throw that thing."

The Wildkittens snatched sixfirsts and nine seconds in thirteenevents to win their first track meetof the season. Most of the eventswere slow, but there is a lot ofgood material in the class of '37for track teams in the future.Dickson bagged the high scoringhonors with sixteen points. Hewonboth the century dash and thebroad jump with comparativeease.Dick Johnson, who was alternatecaptain of the frosh eleven, lookspromising in the weight events.Incidentally, he won the shot-putwith a distance of forty-three feet,two inches. Brown of the froshran a very nice race in the mile.The High Point boys put up a good

fight and the meet was by no meansa walk-away. Hendrix was the starfor High Point, scoring thirteen pointsfor his team with first places in thepole vault and discus and second inthe javelin. He has vaulted as highas twelve feet in high school compe-tition, but in the meet with the froshhe cleared eleven-four,simply to breaka tie between a teammate and himself.

While most of us go home forEaster vacation,two Wildcat teamswill be out to win more honor forold Davidson. The racqueteers lefttoday for an extensive southerntrip. Under the leadership of Cap-tain Halverstadt, the racquet wield-ers ought to bring us back no lessthan six good scalps. Coach Laird'snine will be taking on Carolina ina two-game series in the mean-time. The annual Easter Mondaygame between the Wildcats andthe Tar Heels will take place inConcord this year. If you can getover there, you'll see some classybaseball.The golf team is in the last stages

of sifting as this column goes to press.Bill Bowman, a sophomore who hasbeen shooting in the 70*5, will un-doubtedly be the number one man.Furman will be the linksmen's firstopposition in Charlotte on April 12.

A large step toward betterspring sports has been taken bythe authorities in their securing ofBob Crosland tohelp with the ten-nis team. Davidson has never hada tennis coach and he will certain-ly be a greathelp to the team. Till

F.E.R.A. Workers MakeVarious Improvements

According to a recent statement byMr. Frank L. Jackson, treasurer ofDavidson College, there are at presentapproximately twenty Davidson stu-dents engaged in work on the campusin conjunction with the Federal Emer-gency Relief Administration in Wash-ington.

These men have been working forthe past several weeks on various im-provements on the college grounds, do-ing mainly general work on the cam-pus and the golf course. They havealso been helping in some of the extrapainting on several of the buildings.

The men who have been workingwere selected by a committee com-posed of faculty members, with espe-cial regard to the neediness of the stu-dents. According to the rules of theadministration, one-fourth of the menmust be from the ranks of the newmen, and, since only five men appliedfrom this group, of necessity onlytwenty men in all can receive pay forthe work.

Art Lecture GivenIn Chapel TuesdaySpeakerOutlines History of Carl

Schurz FoundationMrs. Johnsen, the representative of

the Carl Schurz Memorial Foundation,who is making lectures on the exhibitof German etchings and engravingsnow being shown in the banquet hallof Chambers, made a talk on thisfoundation in chapel on Tuesday morn-ing, March 20. Mrs. Johnsen was in-troduced by Guy R. Vowles, professorof German.

Mrs. Johnsen started her talk bybriefly outlining the life of CarlSchurz, for whom the memorial fundis named.

"Carl Schurz," she said,"was born in Germany, but after re-ceiving an education here, he wasforced to leave because of a revolu-tion.

"He came to America and becamevery influential in American politics.He was sent as ambassador to Spainby Lincoln in 1861 and during the CivilWar served as a major general in theUnion Army. After the war he servedas the editor of several of the coun-try's leading papers until he died in1906.

"The aim of the Carl Schurz Me-morial Fund is to establish better cul-tural relations between America andGerman - speaking countries," Mrs.Johnsen continued.

"The initial amount

Professor Oscar Julius Thies, asso-ciate professor of chemistry, left herelast Saturday to attend the;convention

Literary SocietiesPHILANTHROPIC

Resolved:That college education is'out of adjustment with modern life,wasargued at the meeting of the Phil-anthropic Literary Society Tuesdaynight. Arguing affirmatively were Al-bert Harper and C. D. Dean;negative-ly, John McMullan and T. D. Mullis

The affirmative argued that collegeeducation was turning out too manywhite-collar workers who are unwill-ing to start at the bottom and conse-quently filled the ranks of the unem-ployed. Modern college education asa whole, said the affirmative speakers,is not paying enough attention to thebasic industries— agriculture, dairying,and manufacturing

—is turning out a

surplus of professional men and tech-nicians who find no market for theirlabors, and thus is not aiding humanwelfare.

The negative speakers argued thata college education was necessary toget the best well-balanced outlook onlife. By giving a more general edu-cation the college aids the student inchoosing his occupation. Finally, thenegative argued that in this mile-a-minute world, college education isneeded to preserve culture.
