To Remain Open

Until Christmas Although cold winter weather

really arrived Monday, adminis­trative officials assured the stu­dents that there is no possibility of the closing of school before the Christmas holidays.

Nationally, the fuel shortage situation appeared to brighten as UMW head John L. * Lewis was found guilty of contempt of court, but commentators rumored 60 days as the extent of the strike.

"Attempts by students to sabo­tage the conservation effort and thereby gain a longer vacation will only' mean no "spring vacation later," said Bateman. "Education society requirements will not al­low the college to close and simply lose the time."

"The college cannot buy 6ne more ounce of coal until mining begins again; however, the college will have enough coal to last until March, provided that we are not called upon to contribute coal to any "other institution," stated Charles J. Duke, Jr., chairman of the College Emergency committee on the Conservation of Fuel and Power. Mr. Duke said that the only institution capable of de­manding coal here in Virginia and getting it is the hospitals.

Herbert H. Bateman, chairman of the College Coal Conservation committee, has requested that stu­dents be considerate and try to conserve whenever possible.

Fraternity Association Calls Mass Meeting

Men Formulate United Frat Policy; Resolution Urges Full Cooperation

A mass meeting of all students has been called at Phi Beta Kappa hall, tomorrow at 4 p. m., by the Fraternity association, for the discussion of any student complaints.

The association met in special session last night to formulate a definite, united fraternity policy, and the following resolution was passed:

"We resolve, in protest to the stand taken by the Board of Visitors : and the policies employed by the

THREE HOURS OF EXPLOSIVE discussion by the Fraternity association (above) last night resulted in a decision to call a student mass meeting: tomorrow for the general airing of student complaints about the administration of the college. Speakers for the various fraternities declared that the Fraternity association felt the admin­istration had shown its lack of interest in the fraternities in great and small ways and that a general open meeting would "lay the pro­blem on the table."

Honor Code Poll Shows 9 4 * O f W - M Students

Favor System, 56" Approve Present Organization Approximately 94 per cent of

the students at William and Mary are in favor of an honor system, and 56 per cent are in favor of the system as it now stands.

These facts were revealed' in a FLAT HAT poll which asked the following questions, "Are you in favor of the honor system?", "Are you in favor of the system as it now stands?" and "If not, what modifications do you propose?"

Only 272 of the polls were re­turned, of which 74 were the re­sponses of men and 198 of women. Of the women, 99 per cent were in favor of the honor system, while 83 per cent of the men answered the first question affirmatively. The women are in favor of the system as it now stands by a 63 per cent vote, and at the same time 64 per cent of the men are not in favor of the present honor code.

Changes Proposed In answer to the question on

modifications, 53 students advo­cated that the "failure to report an offense" be stricken from the honor code. Other proposals: in­cluded graded punishments, more faculty instruction and cooperation,

WSG Recommends

Fines For Absence Members of WSCGA voted

Monday night to recommend that probation cuts be changed to a $5.00 fine fo rone day and a $10.00 fine for two days. This will be taken to the Student Assembly to­night, since it concerns both men and women.

Suggestions to change the dates of Christmas vacation were voted down.

The June Ball fund, at present under the sponsorship of The FLAT HAT, was voted a 50 dollar contribution and an appropriation for a gift for Dr. Grace Warren Landrum was set.

A motion was approved to have the faculty investigate a Thanks­giving holiday next year from Wednesday noon to Monday at 8 a. m., with the extra time to be made up in September.

Shirley Sprague, vice president of WSCGA, announced a Student-Faculty party on Tuesday, Dec. 10. Hibbert D. Corey will speak on "Job Opportunities for Wo­men."

more publicity for the honor sys­tem, more effective enforcement of the code, outside aid in the en­forcement, a special investigating committee, to help in _ cases of stealing, and elimination of the pledging of tests.

Survey Checks Cafeteria Hours

Times of shortest lines in the cafeteria were determined by a FLAT HAT survey taken last week.

Best morning hours to eat were found to be 7 a .m. and between 8 and 8:15 a. m. Short­est lines at lunch time occurred at 12:45 p. m. arid between 1:10 and 1:15 p.,m. To avoid lines at night, the best times to eat were determined as 5:15, 5:45 and between 6:10 and 6:15 p. m.

In the large cafeteria, an un­even distribution between the two lines was found, particular­ly in the morning.

Assembly Discusses

Constitution Proposal On the agenda of the Student

Assembly meeting scheduled for tonight at 7 in the Apollo room was a consideration of constitu­tional changes and the proposal of women students that the faculty impose absence finesv instead of probation for Christmas vacation cuts.

Student government constitu­tional provisions relating to the Publications committee were in­vestigated by the committee in November, and Bob Jacobs, chair­man, was directed to propose re­visions. Clarification of several other clauses in the constitution

A number of students suggested that the honor code not be appli­cable to the judicial rules, show^ ing a basic misunderstanding of the system. According to Honor council members, the Honor Code has never been applicable to social rules.

The polls will be turned over to the Honor councils for further in­vestigation in possible modifica­tions of the code.

Students To Sell Christmas Seals

Christmas seals will go on sale ,on the campus this week with Dorothy Ferenbaugh, Y. W. C. A. president, directing women's sales, and F. E. Clark, student body president, in charge of sales to men students.

Boxes will be set up in the wo­men's dormitories and sorority houses and representatives in each house will supervise the sale.

Mrs. H. L. Fowler is directing the sale for the James City County Tuberculosis association, of which James L. Cogar is president.

Work Last Year In a review of the work done by

the James City County association during the past year, Mr. Cogar declared that a large percentage of the money raised in the seal drive locally remains in the coun­ty. He listed the following accom­plishments of the association dur­ing the year: assisted with the ex­penses of two . patients^ at Pied­mont Sanatorium, paid* the ex­penses of one patient a.t Blue Ridge Sanatorium, paid for 174 X-rays at clinics, contributed $50 towards educational work in the white sanatoria, cooperated with other civic organizations in Wil­liamsburg and James City county in paying for free lunches and milk for undernourished children in white and colored schools, pro­vided over $600 of. relief work in homes, and supplied health-building medicines , for children considered "suspects."

Lennox Robinson will deliver the first general lecture of the year presented by the Faculty Committee on Lectures, Art, and Music, Thursday, Dec. 5, at 8 p. m. in Phi Beta Kappa audi­torium.

college in regard to fraternities; "THAT, there should be a mass

meeting of the student body to dis­cuss the fraternity situation;

"THAT, all participants in col­lege activities, other than those under scholarships or holding pay­ing jobs, be urged to resign their activities; and

"THAT, the Fraternity associa­tion appoint a committee to bring forth immediate action."

Members of the committee in charge, appointed immediately fol­lowing the session of the Frater­nity association, have announced that the purpose of the mass meet­ing shall be to discuss, in addition to the fraternity situation, all mat­ters pertaining to the student body which may be brought before the meeting.

The Fraternity association un­animously agreed that "there are ho fraternities on this campus un­der present circumstances, that they exist in name only and are merely social clubs. It is the de­sire to correct this situation which has led to" the recent actions of the association."

It was con­sidered to be unfair to men who are interested in fraternities. The association feels that a clearer statement of administration policy should be forthcoming."

A subsequent move on the part of the Fraternity association to en­list the aid of the National Inter-fraternity Council, was nullified when it was learned that the Council's stand is that "Fraterni-

Vandalism Campaign

Proves Successful "For the first time since William

and Mary and the University of Richmond have been rivals on the gridiron, there was absolutely no vandalism practiced this year," stated F. E. Clark, president of the student body, yesterday.

Last year's debts for damages caused by students of both schools were paid by both administrations before this year's annual Thanks­giving game at City Stadium in Richmond.

At the pre-game mass meeting at William and Mary on Nov. 20, and the University of Richmond on Nov. 21, student leaders from both schools urged the elimination of property damage.

Carter Slams Phi Bete In

William And Mary-Go-Round Thursday, December 5, Phi Beta

Kappa observes its one hundred and seventieth anniversary.

The few men who met in the old Apollo Room of the Raleigh Tavern 170 years ago little knew what a great force they were breathing life into at the time.-Whatever might have been their original purpose in forming' a fra­ternity, they began a movement which has*spread throughout the entirety of the college world.

Phi Beta Kappa, although foun­ded as a special order, was by no means a club of pleasure seekers. Far from it.j It was an organiza­tion which rested upon (fellowship, but it placed knowledge and edu­cation upon the pedestal of worthy achievement.

Still another significaant thing is the fact that Phi Beta Kappa celebrates its birthday as the mother of the system of American college fraternities which has

come to be one of the greatest and most important in the modern institution of higher learning. The principal of fellowship has been handed down to these off­spring as the fundamental element of their existance . . . the dearest bond of fraternal life.

.In recognition of this mother­hood, the fraternity: erected an auditorium upon our campus and dedicated it to the education of youth and inculcation of the noble principles which have brought the fraternity through its many years of existance.

The building was erected and dedicated to the founders of Phi Beta Kappa and to . serve as a reminder to the classes of today and tomorrow that the great fun­damentals of college are not fleet­ing and vain, but when properly acquired, are the heritages of time, the gift of ages of human thought and experience and the hope of an

enlightened civilization. But Within three weeks after

the building was dedicated, No­vember 27, 1926, students began pointing out absurdities and inad­equacies of the structure .- . . the auditorium especially. That such an architectural monstrosity should be dedicated to the highest pre­cepts of education seemed an outrage.

Ah, progress. Twenty years later the same opinions prevail. Why doesn't the college or Phi Beta Kappa remodel the auditorium? A new stage needs to be built .̂ . . one that will better accomodate plays, concerts, and convocations. The audience would have a more comfortable view of these pre­sentations if the seats were stag­gered and the floor was set on an incline, If these corrections could be administered, plays and con­certs would be much more en­joyable.

Since 1779 the Honor System has been at work here at William and Mary. It is an integral part of our college—as important as any single factor can be. This year discontent has arisen about the Honor System, both with the code and the enforcement of that code, and it makes us all stop to think whether we, as individuals, believe in the system as it now stands. This consideration -is a good thing, since the

success or failure of any Honor Sys­tem depends almost entirely on the

H o n o r S y s t e m - - - individual and his willingness to up-hold the principles prescribed by a

N o t O u r s A l o n e code of honor.

Honor itself is not dependent on the individual. I t is a distinct and inexorable quality that grows and manifests itself of its own accord. Since the time of Plato it has been recognized as a highly desirable trait in man, and since 1779 it has been recognized as highly desirable at William and Mary.

T h e Honor System is not ours alone—it belongs as much to the past generations of William and Mary students, to the administration and to the faculty. The 'Honor System is ours only to maintain.

W e are, by no means, advocating that no changes should be made. W e do not propose that anything should be maintained for the sake of tradition if it has been proved to be out of date or inefficient. On the contrary, we have a definite responsibility in propagating honorable conduct, in general, and the Honor System, in particular, within this college community. Wi th this end in view, changes should be made not by popular vote of the present student body, but by our representa­tives on the. Honor councils.

W e suggest that the councils conduct a thorough investigation of any proposed changes in the Honor System. Open forums and debates among the students, consultation with the administration, the faculty, and the alumni would be possible means of determining the changes that should be made. But at all times the councils must bear in mind the importance of retaining the fundamental principles of honor in their most workable form

Woolley Takes A Look At

Big City Political Machines From Memphis to Chicago, from

Kansas Gity to Jersey, this has been a famine year for the Big City Political Brotherhoods, long a main battery on the Democratic line. The arteries regulated by the Kellys, Crumps, Pendergasts and Hagues have been heavily tapped by apathy and exposure. ....The most pronounced voting deficiency dusted off four Demo­cratic congressmen and five im­portant local office holders in America's most heavily populated county, Cook, where Kelly lives. The 73-year-old Chicago mayor now faces a 1947 campaign under attack from within and without. Younger Demo elements, led by Tom Nash, nephew of Kelly's late partner Pat Nash, are gunning for the succession. ..Looking down from his tribunal tower on Michi­gan Avenue, Colonel McCormick has ruled the end of his alliance with the Kelly administration and further decreed that he shall des­ignate a new master for the Chicago millions. Between the machine and the Tribune, Illinois voters are rather limited in their choice.

The only strong man in the area is Paul A. Douglas, who some con­sider of too high a caliber for the Sucker state vote. An indepen­dent Democrat, foremost econo­mist at the University of Chicago and once a crusading city alder­man, Douglas has been under constant hospital care since being badly wounded as a Marine major in Okinawa. Independants are booming him for the 1948 Senat­orial race. If his physical and mental condition okay such . a draft, he would oppose the present Republican senator, C. Wayland Brooks.

A McCormick yes-boy, Brooks has a good speaking voice and sports wavy hair. During his first term in Washington, he has been frequently photographed w i t h Robert Taft, was divorced and re­married on Senate time and re­fused to attend Congressional Memorial services for the late President.

Down in Memphis, Boss Crump, a bit cantankerous as he prepares for his descent or ascent (which­ever it may be), doesn't like Harry Truman and proved it by his

limited backing of administration candidates. I n Kansas City, the empty shell that was supposedly a revived Pendergast machine, readily cracked under adverse publicity of the Kansas City Star. With K. C. Demos widely split, there is little chance of a return to the machine age.

The Jersey City domain of the uneminent Frank Hague is shrink­ing on a continuing basis that may see its total demise within a half decade. Former Governors Edison and Edge began the offensive, G. O. P. Governor Driscoll is now carrying the ball and may sweep across that Hudson county line.

Democratic National Chairman Bob Hannegan is sick and tired. The Ins have it that the new chairman will be a New Yorker, product of another Demo machine which was none too prominent last month. A better man might be the retiring governor of Georgia, Ellis Arnall. A capable administrator of good background and high intelligence, his reorgan-izational abilities could be put to strong use in the weakened Dem­ocratic party of today.

L. M.

On June Ball

T h e June Ball controversy has been going on now for some time, and as yet the students have made no definite conclusions about the situation.

Since a collapsible floor for the sunken garden is impossible to obtain because of scarcity of materials and for financial reasons, we believe that the permanent floor idea should be considered more

seriously. There has been some C* *• Q t «• J argument as to whether this per-U e t D t a r t C d manent floor, which- Would be at

the west end of the garden, would mar the beauty of this part of the campus. W e believe some color

scheme could be worked out whereby the campus would not be dis­figured to any appreciable extent.

In a recent article published in The F L A T H A T it was stated that the college would not underwrite the expense of the ball because it issuch a large financial undertaking. There is not enough money in the dance fund to permit contracting of a band. I t is evident, therefore, that things are going in circles. Last week a student contributed one dollar to start a fund for the June Ball in the hope that other students would follow suit. As yet no one else has contributed. W e urge the fraternities and sororities on campus to promote this fund, since at the present it is the only visible way to obtain money for the ball.

T h e President's Aides should also sponsor this fund. Their organization is in charge of the activity, and as yet they have done nothing about it.

Last year everyone realized that the plans were started late, and consequently everything was completely disorganized. T o avoid the same situation this year plans must be formulated immediately.

B. J.

With the blood pressure of the college rising to an all-time high during the past week, we've been carefully feeling the campus pulse attempting to diagnose the malady which seems to have reached epidemic proportions. The symptoms — red faces, bull-ses­sions, and loud voices—preclude a serious nervous breakdown and we have found that one of the causes is the present controversy over the use of automobiles.

We have endeavered to make a research of the problem and in this effort we have reviewed the written rules, and we have talked with the assistant dean of women, the dean of men and the bursar of the college. As a consequence we have obtained some enlight­ening facts, but some of the ques­tions remain* unanswered.

About ten years ago, the Board of Visitors passed the resolution which noy{ stands as printed in the College catalogue, page 41: "By regulation of the Board of Visitors, students are not allowed to have automobiles, except by special permission, which is to be secured from the president." This resolution was passed to back up a previous adrhinistratiqnal ruling of the same nature following a petition of the students to allow them to keep automobiles at the

college, Charles J. Duke informed us. And, to our knowledge, this is the only blanket restriction of the college on automobiles.

In trying to piece together the causes of the automobile regula­tion, we obtained the unofficial information that there were two reasons fpr restricting the owner­ship of cars by the students: 1) before'1932, students were al­lowed to own automobiles but there were several automobile ac­cidents throughout the state on one week end in •which seven or eight college students were killed.

The deceased were not all William and Mary students but the Board felt that something should be done to restrict the operation of auto­mobiles. 2) the Board felt the students would accomplish more academically if they didn't have cars in which to "take off" on the week ends.

These speculations gives us pos­sible origins of the ruling but they do not explain how the pres­ent interpretations have been de­rived from them. The women students have been laboring under the delusion that the Board of Visitors says they cannot ride in automobiles. That is a pretty broad interpretation of the state­ment in the catalogue which reads "have automobiles."

The regulation as it affects the "men is a different situation. Stu­

dents may have cars only with special permission of the presi­dent which precludes that the president has the power to restrict the use of automobiles if he allows the students to have automobiles in Williamsburg. The men must realize that the "griping" about the administration of this regu­lation may be justified in some cases, but that the only way to accomplish their aims—to be per­mitted to have and use their auto­mobiles at will—is to try to modify or change the Board's ruling.

Meanwhile, we propose that the administration of the college in conjunction with the Student As­sembly make a thorough investi­gation of the automobile restric­tions, that their findings be pub­lished on mimeographed sheets, and that a copy be issued to each student.

The confusion which has oc-cured during the past few weeks is a result of misunderstanding on the part of the students arising because the regulations concern­ing automobiles have never been unified into one statement. The codification of these regulations is a challenge to anyone, for there are enigmas all along the way, but we issue the challenge!

Next week we shall have inves­tigated a few other aspects of this situation and shall continue our discussion of it.

Campus Big Wheel Lost To College; Re-enlists To Make It A Million"

"When I heard- fhat marching music, I just couldn't resist," stat­ed Ramelfangen Q. (standing for Quintus) Loganberry in an exclu­sive interview before leaving for Fort Bragg, North Carolina. "Yes-sir, there I was, on my way to the post office; and, just as I was walking down the Duke of GIOUT cester Street, the Army Ground Forces recruiting trailer parked in front of the post office opened up with 'The Caissons Go Rolling Along' — every time I hear that, I go off and sign up for another hitch. This is my third hitch- al­ready. Sure do hope that song doesn't continue in popularity too much longer!"

Ramelfangen has been very ac­tive on the campus of William and Mary, in the period between hitches. It was he who formed the Academic Order of Savoir-Faire. The chief plank in that 'or­ganization's platform was the re­storation of Lord Botetourt's right hand. This organization enjoyed a wave of popularity which swept Ramelfangen to the front of the students' eyes. From there on out,

Loganberry was, as he so modestly puts it, "the biggest wheel on this campus." He subsequently jump­ed from notoriety to notoriety. A physics major, R a m e l f a n g e n achieved nation-wide popularity by presenting his treatise, "Why-Mankind needs Physics," before the American Physics Local No. 29. Hailed as the benefactor of all canines, Loganberry applied to the national headquarters of the S.P.C.A., and received a charter to o p e r a t e within Williamsburg. Shortly thereafter, a large decline in the deaths of the dogs on the campus was noted. In Oshkosh, there is a statue of Ramelfangen, protecting a poor dog from the de­signs of a cook in the cafeteria of one of the nation's colleges.

W - M On The Air Gives Plays, Musical Programs

There's a tense moment of quiet. Everyone's eyes are on the green light in the back of Phi Beta Kappa Hall. Suddenly the green •changes to red. William and Mary is on the air! .

Since the initial broadcast featuring Ash Wiley and his band, the College has had the 7:45 to 8:00 p. m. spot every Friday night on WRNL. Things get underway Fridays when Jim Riley, student tech­nician, checks the wires to Richmond at 7:00 p. m. He checks them periodically after that until 7:45 From then on Jim is responsible for the control of the program to insure its correct receipt.

Members Write Scripts The Radio club or student ex­

perimental workship is in charge of the programs. Different mem­bers write the scripts themselves. There are tryouts for the announ­cer and different parts on the pro­gram. Rehearsal goes on for a week before the broadcast. Stu­dents handle sound, cues, etc. "We have very limited sound equipment," said Mollie Prince, secretary, "but we improvise and use what we have." Three mikes are available, and are usually used in unison.

The Radio club tries to offer a variety of programs publicizing different College departments. This Friday the Glee club will sing. Ash Wiley and his band will make a return appearance the following week.

Pep Rally Broadcast On Tuesday, Nov. 26, the once

annual two-way broadcast of the William and Mary-University of Richmond pre-game pep rally was resumed under the direction of the

Dii >s uiscusses Many Children

Bob Jacobs is probably the only man on the campus who discusses his dozens of "children." He reached his position as the idol of Matthew Whalev's tenth grade with his practice teaching courses.

"Jake" will graduate in June with a degree in history. From William and Mary, he hopes to take graduate work at Northwes­tern.

Vice-president of the Men's Honor council, chairman of the Publications committee, member of the Senate and General Co-op, President's Aide, and representa­tive to the Inter-fraternity council are some of his activities.

Honor System Concerning the current discus­

sion about the Honor System, Jake had this to say, "An effective honor system depends on the atti­tude of the whole student body. An efficient Honor council com­poses only a very minor part of a good honor system."

All women between eight and eighty, steak, bridge, and golf are all high on Jake's list of favorites. His ambition is to be a profes­sional golfer. Shooting a 67 on a "putting green" is the closest he's come to that achievement.

Jake's most vivid memory of his war experience as a paratrooper was "the Tennessee campaign." This statement, he said, a number of people would understand.

Jake was as equally renowned in high school as he is at William and Mary. Guilford, Conn., is his home town, where, in high school he was editor of the school paper, president of his class, on varsity golf and basketball, and honor council. He was voted class clown, as well as a future member of the bachelor's club.

New Dormitory Court

Meeting with representatives of the association last week, Dr. Pomfret stated that, because of a ruling of the Board of Visitors in 1942, fraternity houses on the campus of William and Mary are definitely out. Said Dr. Pomfret, "Since the Board adopted the 1942 resolution, it has reconsidered its action on at least two occasions in response to student requests. On each occasion, however, it was the opinion of the Board that the fra­ternity system at William and Mary would be strengthened by the adoption of one of the alter­native plans."

In a statement issued on Satur­day, November 30, Dr. Pomfret announced that plans for the new dormitory court have reached such a point that "a decision by frater­nities is now necessary between the dormitory plan and the lodge plan." Plans for the dormitory-fraternity section plan and a blue­print for a lodge will be submitted to each of the fraternity presi­dents, for action thereon by each fraternity. "The College, on the basis of a majority vote among the fraternities, will then decide whether to erect lodges or to shel­ter the chapters in the new dor­mitory units," Dr. Pomfret said.

Honor Councils

Hole) Discussion

On Suggestions

Program Announced

To Instill Principles A two-hour discussion meeting

of the Men's and Women's Honor Councils on Tuesday, Nov. 26, re-

! suited in a number of-decisions and announcements.

I Current student discussion of the Honor System, it was pointed out, concerns itself largely with the "single penalty" fallacy, while in actual practice there are several penalties that can be given, in­cluding expulsion, suspension, re­moving credit in course, giving an "F" in course.

Program For High Schools

Announcement of a new pro­gram to install the principles of the Honor Code in Virginians of high school age followed the joint meeting. The two Honor councils, in conjunction with similar organ­izations on other campuses, plan to contact and visit the major high schools in Virginia that do not have the System, to help install it. This, according to Harry Stinson and Fran Moore, chairmen of the councils, should help to ease the difficult transition from high schools, where cheating runs riot, to college under the Honor Sys­tem.

It was pointed out that some students do not realize that to an­swer for another student durinc roll call in a class is lying, a breach of the Honor Code. It will be prosecuted by the councils, the chairmen announced.

Aids To Honor System

Ideas proposed ~\o aid the Sys­tem included posting brief notices of all cases, presenting a mock trial before the student body and installing a counsel for the de­fense. Harry Stinson was em­powered to investigate posting notices, but the other two sugges­tions were vetoed because, said members of the councils, a mock trial would not be treated soberly by the student body, and a counsel for the defense is unnecessary un­der the present system where every defendant is given ample opportunity to speak for himself and ask for defense witnesses.

The councils decided to consider carefully the results of The FLAT HAT Honor System poll which was recently conducted.

Canterbury Club To Give Holiday Tea Dance At Inn

A Christmas tea dance sponsor­ed by the Canterbury club will be given at the Inn on Saturday, Dec. 7, from 4 to 7 p. m.

C & O Railroad Plans To Schedule Special W - M Christmas Express

Students are being offered direct service to Richmond and Wash­ington on the "College of William and Mary Special," leaving Wil­liamsburg on Saturday, Dec. 21, John E. Hocutt, dean of men, an-r nounced this week.

Representatives of the railroad will be on the second floor of the Wren building on Wednesday and Thursday, Dec. 4 and 5, to take orders for pullman reservations. Tickets will not be sold on these dates.

Tickets for the "Special" and other trains will be sold on the second floor of Wren building on Dec. 17, 18, and 19.

Operated by the Chesapeake and Ohio Railway, the "Special" will run on the following schedule: Leaving Williamsburg, 11:30 a. m.; arriving Richmond, 12:30 a. m.; arriving Washington, 4:20 p. m.

This train will connect in Wash­ington with trains for Baltimore, Newark, New York, and points nprth, leaving Washington every hour on the hour during the even­ing. The "Special" will Stop in Richmond at the Main Street Sta-, tion only.

In view of students returning on different trains and dates, the C. and O. will operate this through service to Washington on the go­ing trip only. Returning, special coaches will be provided on regu­lar trains leaving Richmond for Williamsburg at 2 p. m. and 7 p. m., January 5.

"This special train has been ar­ranged for convenience of stu­dents, avoiding transfer at Rich­mond, and it is hoped that it will be well patronized as encourage­ment for similar service in the fu­ture," stated F. L. Amos, general agent, passenger department of the Chesapeake and Ohio Railway.

Cloud and Ramsey Make All-Southern Braves Maul Richmond In Season Finale, 40-0

William and Mary's Indians captured the State title and as­sured themselves of a second-place finish in the Southern Conference race as they shellacked an impotent Spider eleven, 40-0, at the Richmond City Stadium on Thanksgiving Day.

With Stan Magdziak tossing three touchdown passes as Jack Cloud and Bob Longacre each scored twice, the Indians battered their ancient foes into almost complete submission. They piled up 26 points in the first half and coasted to their eighth and final victory of the season.

TRIBE TOPICS By ED GRD7FIN

The omission of Bob Steckroth and Knox Ramsey from this sea­son's All-State team is one of the most disgusting examples of dis­crimination in the history of Virginia football.

This team was picked by state coaches, men who should know the ability of players better than anyone else. Yet they failed to honor two men who did terrific jobs in helping to make the Indians infinitely better than any eleven in the Old Dominion.

Coach Rube McCray could think of no reason why Steckroth should have been slighted. "In my opinion," he stated, "Bob is the greatest end I have ever seen at William and Mary." This statement really means something when you consider that the 1942 Tribe boasted such outstanding flankmen as Glenn Knox and Al Vandeweghe.

McCray had much praise for the rangy star from Hazleton, Pa., mentioning especially his receiving ability. "When Bob gets his hands on a pass," he explained, "there is no question as to whether it will be complete. He doesn't miss." WHO RANKED ABOVE STECKROTH?

But Steckroth wasn't chosen. Let's consider the two men who were ranked above him. One was Bill Chipley, Washington and Lee's standout. He is perhaps the main reason why the Generals fared as well as they did this year and deserves all the praise which he has received.

At the other terminal, however, the unbiased coaches placed Doc Savage, of Richmond. Those who saw last Thursday's massacre know the caliber of his play. He did very little on offense and his defensive ability was virtually non-existant, The Indian backs had no diffi­culty in circling his end as their blockers consistently took him out of the play. »

It was around left end that Tommy Korczowski made a 24-yard dash to the Spider five on a naked reverse early in the opening quar­ter. Pictures of the action show Savage about ten yards behind Tommy, making a vain effort to catch him. This was a sample of Doc's activi­ties for the day, while Steckroth gave an excellent performance. As one observer so aptly put it, "Savage couldn't carry Bob's headgear." HOW COULD RAMSEY MISS?

Why Ramsey was left out is another interesting question. Just how it is possible to bypass anyone who has made All-Southern for two years in a row? It couldn't be.that the worthy electors think our brand of football is better than that played in Carolina. With the exception of William and Mary, no Virginia team ranks higher than sixth in the league standings.

So whom did the esteemed. and impartial voters put at Knox's position? They named another Richmonder, Fritz Laurinaitis. May­be he was selected because he is one of the Spiders' co-captains.

He couldn't have been chosen because they thought he was better than Ramsey. Laurinaitis made ~ a showing which was somewhat superior to that of Savage but he also left much to be desired. Jack Cloud must not have known just how good Fritz is or the Indian fullback wuld never have been able to smash his way over the Laurinaitis guard slot for 22 yards and his second touchdown. Maybe the Spiders' All-State guard is not as aggressive as his fellow co-cap­tain, Houston Sizer, who seems to be addicted to the commendable habit of slugging his opponents. ALL-CONFERENCE TEAM IS DIFFERENT

On the Associated Press All-Conference eleven Knox was awarded a first-string position. The name of Laurinaitis, however, is con­spicuously absent, probably because of a typographical error. It doesn't seem reasonable that such a player could have been over­looked.

The All-State team was chosen by state coaches and no one else. The All-Conference eleven was picked by conference coaches, sports writers and scouts. It might be that the Old Dominion mentors are retaliating for the shellackings that their teams took at the hands of the Indians.

In his comment on the seemingly unexplainable selections, Ben Wahrmari, sports editor of the Richmond News Leader, asked, "Could it be jealousy?" Could be.

Steckroth, Sazio Receive Berths On Second Tekin

Jack Cloud and Knox Ramsey, jtwo of the Indians' outstanding performers this season, were elected to the All-Southern Conference football team which was released by the Associated Press last Sunday.

Four other Tribesman also received honors for.their excellent work. Bob Steckroth and Ralph Sazio were placed on the-second -team, while Tommy Thompson and Tommy Korczowski earned third-string berths. . •

Duke Places Three

Duke was the only, school to place more men on the first team than William and Mary, as three Blue Devils were chosen. No other eleven was able to capture more than one position.

Two other places were filled by Virginia gridders; Bill Chipley, of Washington and • Lee, was placed at one end and a tackle position went to John Maskas of V. P. I. . William and Mary, in , having six men chosen to the three squads, made a better show­ing than all other Virginia schools together, since the rest of the Old Dominion colleges had a combined total of just five men picked.

BOB LONGACRE GAINS AGAINST RICHMOND. Tom Mikula, No. 36, precedes Bob as two Spiders attempt to bring him down. Indians won, 40-0, to take State title.

Indians Reject Dixie Bowl Bid; Post-Season Game Improbable

After the rejection yesterday of a Dixie Bowl bid because of its unsatisfactory nature, it now seems unlikely that the Indians will participate in any post-season •engagement.

"As it -appears now," stated Director of Athletics R. N. Mc­Cray, William and Mary probably will not go to a bowl."'

Virtually all bowl committees have chosen the teams which they wanted and it is extremely un­likely that an acceptable offer will be received at this late date. This fact should bring to an end the wave of rumors which has en­gulfed the campus during the past week.

The Dixie Bowl Invitation was the third which has been offered to the college officials and none of the three was worth the time and

effort which it would have ne­cessitated.

At least two Southern Confer­ence schools have landed bids. North Carolina's Tarheels, League champions, will meet the Uni­versity of Georgia in the Sugar Bowl at New Orleans-on Jan. 1. North Carolina State will play in the Gator Bowl at Jacksonville, Fla., against an unnamed opponent.

The - Carolina - Georgia clash, which matches Charlie Justice against the Bulldogs' Charlie Trippi, may eclipse the Rose Bowl tilt between Illinois and U.C.L.A.

Virginia Tech, despite its medi­ocre season's record, received and accepted a bid to play in the Sun Bowl at El Paso, Tex. Their op­ponent is yet to be named. S.M.U. was invited but the Mustangs de­clined the offer.

Season Climax

By gaining the first team, Jack Cloud climaxed a brilliant fresh­man year in which he was several times chosen Southern Conference freshman of the week and took second honors in league scoring with a total 0^66 points, being topped only by Charlie Justice.

Ramsey, who did such a swell job until he was injured in the George Washington game, made the Conference eleven for the second consecutive year.

Tom Mikula and Bob Longacre received honorable mention.

Proof of the Tribe's great array of talent was the fact that they tied with Duke for the greatest number of positions. North Caro­lina's Tarheels, the league cham­pions, could place just five players on the three teams.

Redmen Open Against Fliers

With the close of the football season on Thanksgiving day, bas­ketball comes into its own with the first game scheduled for this Saturday, Dec. 7, against Langley Field at the fliers' home base.

Coach Gallagher's Indian cage-sters are running into a stiff, op­ponent for their opener. Langley Field ranked tenth last year among the country's service teams. Their squad is loaded with sev­eral experienced college men and former professional players. This game is also the Hirst test for the fliers, so very little is known about, their respective strength, although many of last year's regu­lars are back.

The tentative starting lineup for the Big Green is, "Charley Sokol. and Johnny Green, guards; Chet Giermak, center; and Johnny Jorgenson and Charley Teach, forwards. A captain will be ap­pointed before each game.

The comparative strength of the Tribe courtmen is not known, but they have been looking increas­ingly better during the five weeks' of pre-season practice.

The first home game will be next week against Camp Lee on Dec. 12. That same week the American University quint will furnish the opposition for the Indians in a game at Blow Gym.

The B-Team, under the direc­tion of former William and Mary star Lester Hooker, will play about twelve games this year against prep schools, high schools and other B-Teams.

SKIRTS m SPORTS By BETTY CQUMBE

At a meeting last week of Intramural representatives an amend­ment to the eligibility rule was for the first time brought to light. The amendment was proposed and passed by the WAA.

The proposition as presented to the representatives: It was moved by Martha Barksdale and seconded by Jacqueline Freer that Section 4 of the Rules and Regulations for Intramural Competition under the Individual Eligibility Division to amend as follows: Only active mem­bers shall represent a sorority. Active members shall be interpreted to mean those who have been initiated at the opening- of the season for any given sport.

In respect to intramural basketball this mean sthat all freshman are Ineligible to compete this year as well as upper class transfers who were just pledged to sororities and all other pledges who have not been initiated before Dec. 9.

FACULTY DOMINATION The group of people who have been making rules which will soon

lower co-ed sports to the point where brick traipsing is the ultimate in exercise at William and Mary is composed of four faculty members, one of whom is ex-officio, and three student members. Miss Mar­guerite Wynne-Roberts heads the faculty delegation in an organiza­tion where there is no freshman representative.

PROS AND CONS After interviewing Dr. Sinclair and Miss Barksdale about their

reasons for such a baseless amendment we have come to the con­clusion they have no ground to stand on. Following are their argu­ments for it with my theories against it.

1. Gives dormitories a boost by letting freshman play exclusively fr them. This is asinine since Jefferson hall is the only dorm that would benefit. Chandler and Barrett have a combined total of yabout ten freshmen, half of whom probably will not play basketball.

2. Sorority teams are handicapped if pledges don't make their grades. Sororities can usually tell who will or woTi't make their grades and those who won't practice with a dorm team also. I t is unfair to old pledges who haven't made their grades yet but may do so in February.

3. Freshmen pledges have a tendency 4o form sorority cliques and if they are forced to play together their first year they will act more harmoniously in later college years. This is so ridiculous it hardly warrants a comment. Girls will retain contact with whom they wish, whenever they wish, whether basketball enters into it or not.

The general student opinion holds these views. Sororities have a minimum number of actives now and the new amendment coupled with the varsity ruling makes it practically impossible for a sorority to have more than one team. Each sorority is supposed to supply four scorers and timers and two officials which added to the number of players on two teams would mean over three-fourths of each chapter would be involved. Not that many girls are interested in basketball.

Freshmen have been pointing to basketball intramurals since their arrival, as there is no other sport on a par with it. The WAA made the rule and since there is no freshman on it they had no say in the matter. Lastly, it is my understanding that a sports season officially begins with the first game between two teams and not when teams start practice. If this were taken into account it would move the official opening date of basketball from Dec. 9 to Feb. 10.

By the time this comes out signed petitions from the dormitories and sororities against the amendment will be on the Faculty desks. In spite of this it is up to the class of '50 to help break the strangle hold of the WAA.

Freshmen, if you have pledged a sorority and make your grades before the first game is played why should a ridiculous rule stop you. The idea of pinning a sorority is to partake in its activities not to satisfy the whims of a few outsiders.

Knox Ramsey? Indian Front Wall Standout? Receives All-Conference Nomination Again

By H. REDD

People in some parts of the country have only a vague idea of the college at Williamsburg—they even have the mistaken idea that the name of it is, "William's and Mary," or something more far fetched. But when it comes to football, they make no mistake about the name Knox Ramsey. "He's a slightly terrific guard," they say, "Plays at this W&M place."

Knox hasn't always drawn the attention of so many football en­thusiasts. In fact, he didn't begin to play until late in his high school career, and says that he didn't do anything outstanding on theMary-ville High eleven. This is some­what of a modest understatement, however, as he was accorded All-Eastern Tennessee honors in his senior season, for his outstanding performance at tackle, and the team has been regarded as the best ever in that area.

About the same time Knox was playing high school ball, another Ramsey, his brother, Garrard, was making quite a name for himself at William and Mary, copping an Ail-American berth during the memorable 1942 season.

Enters College Two years later, Knox entered

William and Mary. Comparisons between the two were inevitable. This is not only a very hard thing to do, but a bit on the impractical side ,as well. The Rube probably has the case summed up as well as anyone in saving, "Knox is a little bigger, maybe, and the two play entirely differently." This is an­other way of stating the logical conclusion—they're both among the best linemen ever in the Wil­liam and Mary front wall,

In 1945, Knox's second year on the Reservation, the stellar Indian operated like a tepee-afire, block­ing six punts during the season, scoring, himself, in the Maryland game. Ramsey's name was called not infrequently over the loud­speakers, as he was in on many, many tackles. Knox was selected, on the basis of such performances, on the All^State and All-Confer­

ence teams at the end of the year, and was given honorable mention as Ail-American, and named as the Associated Press Lineman of the Week more than once during the regular season.

The six-foot-two lineman, after ! a successful '45 campaign, went ' into the recently concluded grid­iron with every intent of becoming

| an improved player. It wasn't

Intramurals With but two weeks remaining

to the season, the champion of neither the Fraternity nor the In­dependent league has been decid­ed. The game between Sigma Alpha Epsilon and Sigma Rho, each of whom has won seven games without a setback, will de­termine the Frat league represen­tative to the post season playoff game.

In the Independent league the Go-Getters hung up a 26-0 vic­tory over Club Brooklyn, thus taking over the first place slot. They are one-half game ahead of the Smart Boys and the Vet's Dorm.

Plans are now being formulated for an intramural basketball tour­nament. The tentative plans call for play to begin the week before Christmas. Teams now playing ball can also enter the basketball tourney. Howard Smith, intra­mural director, announced that these teams may accept new play­ers, but the nucleus of the team must be the same. Boys wishing to enter a team must hand in the names of eleven players and a manager at the intramural office in Blow Gym. Further informa­tion will be printed in the next issue of The FLAT HAT.

There was very little change in the tennis picture. The semi-finalists, Dave Ballard, Mai Mc­Cartney, George Gondleman, and Jack Hight are still waiting for play to resume.

KNOX RAMSEY

hard to see that Knox accomplish­ed what he set out to do. This year, he didn't play in his custo­mary tackle position, but at guard, instead. "Rube needed a running guard," says one account of the shifting. "He looked around and saw a big Tennessean. Rube thought a bit. Then he made the move." Perhaps the actual switch wasn't as dramatic as this story would have one believe, but the results point to an unswerving opinion that Ramsey can be re­garded as even more potent in his station in the line. The mentioned brackets of All-America, a Divi­sional spot in the Sunday News selection of its All America, and first team of All Conference bear

this out. It is apparent that rival coaches realized how powerful Knox was this year, as their envy is quite evident in their choice of Ramsey in the past All State elec­tion.

Alert On Defense Typical of the wide-awake type

of football that Knox plays Is his performance in the Washington and Lee game. Lunging for a de­flected General pass, the hundred and ninety-five-pounder grabbed the leather lemon near the W&L 40 and raced all the way to the last stripe to make his interception count six points.

The damper on this season was the accident in the George Wash­ington game in whicfi Knox broke his arm. There have been many accounts of this mishap, a lot of which are a little erroneous. The radio version had Ramsey injured in every conceivable spot from the groin on up to a skull fracture. What really happened, and the pictures of the game can be taken as a means of proof, was a Wash­ington man came in from the weak side of the line at^the same time that Knox was going down. Ram­sey's arm was caught under the falling weight. This, a heavy loss to the Tribe, has but one bright— if it can be called that—aspect about it. Had it happened earlier in the season, it is a point of con­jecture whether the Braves would have enjoyed the winning record that they have posted.

Versatile In Sports Knox has been active in other

sports in addition to football. In See RAMSEY, Page 9

The Great House, made of brick fired on the place, was built dur.r ing the years 1725 to 1730 by Thomas Lee, once governor of Virginia. *

The house, which was allowed to decay for 200 years, was brought in 1929 by the Robert E. Lee Memorial Foundation and re­stored to its original grandeur.

WILLIAMSBURG, VIRGINIA

To prove that unexpected things can happen, Guy Lombardo, of speedboat fame, has waxed two of the best performances in his long tenure of baton swinging with his reissue of HUMORESQUE and a new recording of TALES FROM VIENNA WOODS on the same-facing. Both sides are not only listenable, but leaves one ponder­ing that there is still hope. More­over, none of the Lombardos sing on this one.

Elliot Lawrence's composition, ONCE UPON A MOON, is given smooth treatment by Freddy Mar­tin on the Victor label, with Stuart Wade delivering a warm vocal. Strings on both this and the re­verse, YOU ARE EVERYTHING TO ME, are well scored.

A competent "vocal group," as they are labelled, is featured on

tCapitol's pressing of, THERE IS NO BREEZE. TO COOL THE FLAME OF LOVE by Alvino Rey. Headed by a male vocalist, Jimmy Joyce, the aggregation sounds not unlike the bunch that used to be with Glenn Miller a few years back., Plattermate is an instru­mental, GUITAR BOOGIE, spot­ting Rey at the guitar. His potent brass section should be given more wax space than on this one.

DREAMLAND SPECIAL, a Vic­tor album of eight songs about dreams, is given just the treatment one would expect from Vaugfhan Monroe. Of course Monroe sings. Band is given label credit, too.

Gl Bill Allows VeteransToWork

Limitations Placed

On Outside Income Veterans enrolled in the College

of William and Mary under the G.I. Bill have been reminded by administration officials that they are allowed to earn as much as $110 a month in outside jobs and still receive full subsistence allow­ances from the Veterans Adminis­tration.

If a veteran earns more than $110 on the side, then his subsist­ence allowance is cut in propor­tion, Winfred L. Hasty, Jr., Veter­an's Administration training offi­cer at the College,-explained. Re­cent legislation provides that a veteran shall not receive combined Wages and subsistence' of more than $175 a month if he has no dependents or $200 a month if he has dependents.

The limitation applies to vet­erans whether they are earning money outside while going to school or earning wages in appren­tice or on-the-job training. This

Negotiations are in process to obtain other speakers and approxi­mately eight will appear this col­lege year. Participants in the forum include the following: Frank S. Calkins, of the firms of Leach, Calkins and Scott, certified public accountants of Richmond; Ivor Kenway, director of advertis­ing and sales promotion of the American broadcasting company; Robert W. Scofield, assistant cash­ier, Chase National Bank, New York City. /

Advisory Committee Selected

A student advisory committee selected from those planning busi­ness careers is now being formed. This committee will assist the de­partment members in planning the Business Forum. The forum meet­ings occur in the afternoon and the program will last an hour or longer.

During the war, the Business Forum could not be established. "With the increased return of vet­erans interested in business ad­ministration, arrangements have been made to bring to the campus responsible people in various fields of business," Dr. Marsh em­phasized. The plan is for each speaker to speak informally or carry on a round table discussion

To be eligible for enrollment un­der the vocational rehabilitation act, a veteran must have a pen­sionable service-connected dis­ability of 10 per cent or more.

Veterans were urged by Mr. Hasty to get in touch with him if they have any problems concern­ing their education under the G.I. Bill. He can be located in Mar­shall-Wythe ,hall from 8:30 to 12:30 daily except Saturdays.

Mr. Hasty pointed out that vet­eran-students are entitled to 30 days leave a year with subsistence allowance. A veteran can take this leave during his summer vaca­tion if he wants to, he added; but he uses up that much of his edu­cational entitlement under the G.I. Bill. Veterans who have several years of schooling ahead of them may not wish to use up their edu­cational entitlement by taking this annual leave, he added.

Among the goals of the organization, as stated in the preamble to its constitution, is the provision of such educa­tional assistance as is necessary for, complete readjustment of vet­erans to civilian life.

The preamble advocates active American participation in the United Nations and similar world organizations, and close coopera­tion between veterans and non-veterans.

Prominent Members Prominent members of the

AVC, as listed by Mr. Swift, in­clude the following: Franklin D. Roosevelt Jr., former Minnesota governor Harold Stassen, former Col. Evans F. Carlson, cartoonist Bill Mauldin, and George Baker, creator of the GI cartoon charac­ter, "Sad Sack.".

Infirmary Issues

Flu Shot Reports "Sickness rate at the infirmary

has been considerably less this year than any year since 1940," stated Miss Grace Blank, assistant professor of biology in charge of the infirmary. "Though not as many people responded to the op­portunity as it was hoped, there is still a. chance for flu shots to be taken." /

A total of 285 flu shots have been administered, according to the figures compiled on Nov. 25,. Shots have been given to 117 men students, 100 women students, 44 members'of the faculty, 19 admin­istrative employees, and 11 wives and children of the faculty.

JUST STUFF — Probably the most underrated and. underplayed player on the whole William and Mary football squad is Chet Mack­iewicz. A good power runner and a boy with plenty of spirit (I've heard his calling words of encou­ragement above the sound^of the spectators many times), it is hard to understand why he was not used more often . . . . Words of nice-ity should also be heaped upon the Rinkydinks; "Reserves," as the precisioned would demand. It is they who take all of the beatings in practice —. all of the pounding and none of the pub­licity . . . Not so nice is the prac­tice of cheering for another team's loss by injury. Although Rich­mond College isn't always thought of in rosy terms, it still isn't too respectable a custom to cheer be­cause a Spider (or any other player, for that matter) fails to get up after a play, especially in view of the fact that the Richmonders were not guilty of the same mis­demeanor . . . The Spider rooters, with nothing much to cheer for, turned in a more than adequate performance in this respect. Wil­liam and Mary would do well to acquire more of such team back­ing . . . High point of the whole fancy stuff on the football field this year is undoubtedly trie part that the little "Indians," the fresh­men in appropriate costume, played. It is an innovation of this sort — and the inclusion of the papier-mache spider and routjne in the Thanksgiving game that gives William and Mary needed color. Not to be overlooked, of course, are the band and cheer leaders, who were both commend­able. Leave us hope the Indian pony will be part of the festivi­ties next year.

MORE STUFF — Dick Gal­lagher, basketball coach this year, predicted (before season) that the Cleveland Browns pro team would have no trouble in taking the All-American Conference title. The Bing Crosby-ish looking mentor refuses to make any predictions (before season) about William and Mary's basketball prospects . . . From 1903 through 1909, the Indians were State Basketball Champions three out of six tries . . . All of 56 fouls were called in the 1923 meeting with the Spiders on the basketball court. The Tribe

| was the less damaged of the two, and emerged a scant 25-22 victor.

AND EVEN MORE STUFF — Joe Golembeck, erstwhile Elon athlete and prophet, joined the ranks of the Wahrmanites (Ali Ben Wahrman, of the News Leader, that is. Ali Ben, it will be re­membered, picked the Nationals to win in the All-Star Baseball game and the Spiders to do the same last Thursday), as Joltin' Joe, in predicting the outcome of nine William and Mary football games, saw losses to Virginia Tech and Maryland in his crystal ball . . . While we're on the subject of Elon, and we are now, the last meeting of the Indians with the Christians was in the early twen­ties on the basketball court, the Braves registering a 25-10 de­cision.

Sorority Pledges? Left Out Of Intramural Competition

Sorority pledges will not be able to participate for their sororities in an intramural sport unless they have been initiated before that sport season begins. This ruling was announced by Mrs. Garnett Tunstall, head of intramurals, at a meeting of all intramural repre­sentatives on last Tuesday, Nov. 26.

Basketball schedules were dis­tributed to the various represen­tatives. Practices for the different organizations b e g a n yesterday and are listed for specific times until Christmas vacation.

Each organization was asked to supply at least two referees or umpires for the cage play. These girls need have no experience in officiating, and will receive in^ struction in the near future.

bourne's kick 11 yards to his 47. After Cloud gained three yards, Tommy injured his shoulder again when he was stopped on the 50 and went out of the game to stay. At this point Magdziak threw his initial pass, which was complete to Bob Steckroth on the Red and Blue 11. After a pair of running plays lost six yards Stan faded back and heaved a touchdown aerial to Longacre in the end zone, adding the extra point to make the count 13-0.

The second quarter had barely gotten under way when the Red-men racked up their third tally. A Wilbourne punt was downed on the Richmond 45. Jackie Free­man went to the 37, after which Cloud and Longacre combined to gain a first down on the 22. Cloud then took the • ball and roared through left tackle, stopping only after he had crossed the goal. Magdziak converted again.

Recovered Fumble Recovering a fumble on the

Spider 15, the Redmen ended the first half scoring as Longacre went over from the five, following runs by Henry Blanc and Jack Bruce. Once more the Richmond line blocked the attempted kick and the score stood at 26-0.

Johnny Fenlon's boys saw their only chance to avert a whitewash­ing evaporate shortly afterward. Joe LaLuna heaved a pass to Charlie Suttenfield, who had got­ten behind the Indian secondary. The little scatback had the ball

in his hands and dropped it. Had he made the catch, a touchdown would probably have resulted.

Blanc Intercepts * Toward the end of a slow third

period the Tribe got another mar­ker. Ed Ralston's throw was in-

! tercepted by Blanc on his own 20. • Henry streaked down the east 1 sideline to the Richmond 40, where he lateraled to Cloud and Jack continued to the 28. Magdziak then hit Captain Denver Mills with a toss on the 16. Herb Pop-

, linger went to the 13 and from here the Spiders" were penalized

: to the fiye for unnecessary rough­ness, Houston Sizer having slugged an Indian who blocked him. Three plays gained nothing before Mag­dziak threw to Steckroth over the goal and booted his third extra point.

When Dixie Walker intercepted a LaLuna heave on William and Mary's 40 and ran it back to the Richmond 20 the Big Green ma­chine needed just two efforts for

[ the final touchdown. Magdziak's 1 first attempt fell incomplete but he connected with Marvin Graham

' on the next. Stan wound up the 1 proceedings by chalking up his ; thirtieth conversion.

Fourth Shutout The shutout was the fourth

straight administered to .their foes by the Redmen. The Spiders have scored but three points in the last six games of the rivalry, while William and Mary has accounted for 113 in the last three contests.

Timekeepers and scorers will also be supplied by the individual groups.

Bridge announcements also were given out at the meeting. The card intramurals began yesterday and will continue for two weeks.

Intramural standings thus far: Dormitories — Jefferson 400,

Barrett 300 and Chandler .140. Sororities — Kappa Delta 300,

Kappa Alpha Theta 250, Kappa Kappa Gamma 240, Alpha Chi Omega 240, Gamma Phi Beta 200, Tri Delt 190, Chi O 190, Pi Beta Phi 180 and Phi Mu 150.

As the Sultan said to his harem when he returned from a long trip, "Well, here we go again." They say it's wonderful: Molly Prince wearing Lou Bailey's Theta Delt pin, Jim Skipworth pinning his K.

On the loose: Beegee Grant, Bren Macken, and Howard Hyle all recently detached from respective amours. Immigrants and emigrants: Obie Oblender cavorting in Richmond with an old beau, Jackie Freer off to Washington and Lee to see the Brian of football fame. They say that Carol Achenbach and Penny Allenbaugh are ready to leave dear old W. & M., and transfer to Dartmouth safter a marvelou week end. Donnie Lepper is back —and on the arm of Doc. Ware. Versie Rae ditto Walt Weaver. Jerry Willyard's man Dick down for the week end. Ruth Barnes planning for a weekend at Brown College—Jackie Armor, Betsy De Vol and Pat Jones (NavyO, Helen Thompson (Army) and Dot Fer-enbaugh (divided allegience) to Philly for the big game.
