Piano Copcert .. Disappointing Big Four Ensemble Fails
To Impress Critics With Playing
In place of the scheduled National Male Quartette, as the second program of the current Civic Music series in Raleigh, there· appeared in that city on Tuesday night a group which called itself "The Big 4 Piano Ensemble".
In justice to the performers it must be said that they had a clear, stacatto attack and that their program had tremendous "popular appeal" - a thing Civic Music audiences have been clP.mouring for very loudly during the last couple of seasons. And, too, to watch four people playing four pianos at the same time has considerably more excitement than a bridge game .
Began Well Enough The two couples began well
enough, a tame if pleasing arrangement of the overture to the Barber of Seville, followed by a somewhat· sparkling arrangement of the Mozart Turkish March. They then borrowed from the "First Piano Quartette" the Paganini Va'riations by Brahms and then chased that with a muddy and painful rendition of The Polonaise. But they did almost redeem themselves before the intermission with a delicate and altogether lovely arrangement and interpretation of the Chopin Nocturne in E Flat Major, plus Weber's Perpetual Motion, which they handled with both vigour and wit.
After the intermission the performers, who seemed refreshed, returned to play the Beer Barrel

~'Present System Must Be Revised of Discarded;'' .
Says President
Action to revamp Wake Forest's "somewhat out-moded" honor system was taken this week by the· Student Council in one last effort to stave off the inauguration of a proctor system. Student body president Dagwood Kornegay told Old Gold And · Black last night that !Cheating has reached such proportions of the campus that the Council is faced with the problem of either making the present system function properly or substituting for it some other workable program to curb dishonesty in the classrodm.
Only Alternative He pointed out that the only
altemative to the present setup is a system of proctors. The honor system is failing here because Wake Forest students are loath to report instances in which other. students cheat. The innovation approved by the council will be particularly directed at alleviating this present problem.
Under the new'· system cases may be reported directly to the president of the student body by letter. In the letter reporting the infraction the following information is;to be given:
The name of the student who is cheating, the names of two or more students sitting near enough to the person .. to have seen the cheating, and the name and date of the quiz or exam.
The letter is· to be signed by the person. reporting the infraction, with his or her address and sent to Horace R. Kornegay,

Local Furniture Co. Reopens at New Site
Smith Furniture Company of Wake Forest, now situated directly opposite the Collegiate theater, was reopened on Tuesday, Nov. 18. f:
The store has been moved. from the Wilkerson building, adjacent Edwards' Drug Store, where it was first opened in Sept., 1946. The building in which the enlarged establishment is now located was formerlY used by Miss Jo Williams as a cafeteria. It had been vacant for more than a ~ar before the reopening last week.
a week this year beginning Monday December 8 under the joint auspices of the Philomathesian and Euzelian literary societies. At present the tWo groups are choosing their respective speakers for the annual forensic clash.
Eight contests will be held between the two societies. These have been divided into five parts which will be given at 4:30 on successive afternoons in the two society halls. A banquet is planned for the night of December 11 in termination of the week of ac-tivities. ·
The order of presentation of the speeches is as follows: Monday, debates; Tuesday; poetrY reading and extemporaneous·. speeches;
Speakers who have been chosen thus far are, for the Phi's: Harriet .. Smith, poetry reading; Jewell Adams, dramatic reading; Wayne Slaton, orations; Bill Wagoner, declamations; and Dolores Faulk, impromptu.
· In the Euzelian Society only three competitors have been selected to date. Edgar Chri~an, Pat Murphy and Leldon Kirk will appear in after dinner, orations, and dramatic readings, respectively.
Last year the Phi Society swept every event except debates, and representatives of the Euzelians say that •'this year it'll be different." As yet the place for the banquet has not been announced.

In Memoriam· Tom Hunter was killed in an automobile ac
cident last Saturday night. The suddenness of
the blow has made the shock' doubly ~evere. Tom had•been initiated into the Sigma Pi fra
ternity on Wednesday night after having been
a pledge for many months. He was a quiet boy,
no.t too well-known on the campus-and perhaps
for that reason the more appreciated by the
friends he had in all circles "of campus activity.
He was unfailingly- cheerful; even when he
had serious problems on his mind he would stop
for a pleasant greeting and the. swapping of a
good story. He was a fine reconteur, with a stock of anecdotes which always brought a good
laugh and a lasting feeling of good will.
He wrote- poems, many of which were de
signed to bring a chuckle to those for whom he
wrote them-and always did. Two of his best
ones will be published in the forthcoming issue
of the Wake Forest Student. -
Tom had an unceasing pleasure in the country
round about Wake Forest; he took long walks
and came back glowing with pleasure to tell his
friends about some bird he had seen, some f.arm
er with whom he had stopped to talk, the way a
certain tree near the golf course - a favorite
tree of his - had begun to turn.
Toin Hunter had the human touch, inescapa
ble to ail who knew him. He was from a good
hom!(, but ~e would stop as eagerly to speak
with a Negro janitor as he would with the' dean
of the College.
He had about him an aura of contentedness. -· He had a way of speaking sometimes-not quite
a drawl-which made his hearer think of the
any one of the members of their class could very easity inform the president of the student body of any dishonesty and at the same time remain anonymous.
Old Gold and Black commends the Student Council for taking action in this matter; it was indeed tim~ that some change was made. At the sam~ time, however, we doubt that this will solve the problem. Some students are not ladies and gentlemen and cannot be trusted.,
The trial proceeds, though, and. if' Wake Forest students will not take this last chance to make the h?nor system work they may very w~ll find proctors standtng guard over them during quizzes in the very near future.
TPue SpiPit We have wondered often what it is a'bout the
Wake Forest student body that makes it unique among such groups. Some1!lmes we have looked and not found, and our faith in mankind has received a minor jolt.
Friday night was a good night, however. We found when we weren't even looking, and our faith was restored. The gesture our c;:heering section made at Winston-Salem was superb. When the' cheerleaders called for the yell, "Poor Duquesne," our fans refused to give it. In the tra· dition that has made Wake Forest great they called for "Yea, Duquesne, here's a hand," and they 'shouted it more enthusiastically_than any othe'r yell during the evening.
The scrappy little squad from Pennsylvania made a valiant stand, battling all the way. Clearly l5utplayed, they stuck in the game and fought. Without a cheering section of their own, they did not deserve the State College Bronx.
Old Gold and Black compl~ments the student body on its magnificent spirit ..
No More Stallin8 The eyes of the world are focused on London,
when~ the Foreign Ministers of the Big Four are now in conference. Decisions are being made by this small group and their aides which will affect the future lives of million~ of human beings.
Many observers believe that this may be the last four-power attempt to reach unified peace settlements with Germany and Austria. Secretary of State Marshall's recent speech indicated in no uncertain terms that the American people are fed up with the delaying tactics of the Russian leaders. We have made it plain to them that we intend to go ahead with the work of complet: ing the peace treaties with or without their co-
1
operation. It is now their move in the interna-l tiona! chess game.
This so-called "cold war" that we are now wag~ng is not unlike the "war of nerves" that preceded oJ'r entrance into World War II. We do not believe that history will repeat itself, however, because we were almost unbelievably weak in military power before Pearl Harbor. and were lucky that the Japs did not know the true situation. We are now the strongest nation in th:e world from the standpoint of military power, and the Russian leaders are ?tell aware of that fact. gracious and leisurely spirit of the South in

slow and easy," he said more than once to one
of his friends, "and enjoy the simple things. The

and untimely death has made a terrible void.
·We :;hall not forget him.

By DISC .JOCKEY From the looks on codtented
faces around the campus today that turkey must have bee~ really well-done, • and oli! so good .. A book-store milkshake would never produce that expression-so our appreciation to the faculty who v.pparently iike their turkey · on the right day too.
There's only one fallacy to otir day off-we came back from a flying trip home or up to the Charlotte game a.nd proceeded ·to sleep through classes today. Qr if we managed to stress a point .and get our physical self up we sat there in class and wished for the Soda Box or a Bromo-Seltzer. The students agreed that the professors talked in more circles than, usual (relative to certain science courses t}?.at's really a feat), and the pro~ fessors long ago had agreed that after all they get paid for facing such blissful ignorance every day. , At least we can find some con_solatiori in the fact that even Cic~ro loved his palatable foods and he wasn't an exception to the rule for overstuffing. Maybe we could drown our anxieties in listening to som~ good music, so here's a program for all of next week from Wait Hall Tower and a toast to the longer Christmas holidays!

DEACONS DOWN DUQUESNE, LOSE THANKSGIVING CiAME -~- .-
the BILLBOARD· By BILL BETHUNE
As always, after the cessation of hostilities, there comes a time when some sort of an accounting must be' rendere.d to the general public an9, even though we find ourselves woefully unprepared, the termination of the current campaign leaves us :with no out but to do just that. We offet¥ no more recommendation for our hindsight than for any previous foresight; still, a backward glance is a little mor.e on the"safe side and we should welcome with open arms the opportunity to recapitulate.
If your '47 scrapbook isn't already overflowing with such things as memories of the past few weeks will permit, chances are a nice big question mark would look well on the front page of the football section. If it's to be a true picture of Wake Forest football, that mark of doubtful aspect should be there for a number of reasons, but mainly because it was around this fall before anything, or anyone, else.
In case you're a stickler for details, you I?Jight make a pointed reference to page first and ten, or wherever you have the backfield combines listed, for right there was where the biggest "if" was in September. Three spots to fill out of four. Not a bad mar-gin for error. ,
Score in Every Period to Win
Speculation ran rife all through the summer as to who would fill the cleats o'f one 'Nick Sacrinity and his.partner in crime, John "The Red" Cochran. As we said befor~, two more ,of the regular tel}ants, Bo Sacrinity and Rock Brinkley, had vacated, but the big worry in Walker's single wing system centered at the tailback spot. Blessed with a double helping of ability last year, he suddenly found that he needed a boy who could run, kick and pass the ball with the best, and needed him bad. He went on the prowl in no uncertain fashion for a lad that could perform well in three departments. Unfortunately, he· never found him.
After an extensive off-season expedition, Walker finally found his starting tailback right in his own backyard in the perso~ of Tom Fetzer. Ontl of the best, if not the top, overhead men in the loop, Tom deserves the air medal not only for his passing ability but for his fine footwork as well. The only flaw in a near perfect situation was that the Reidsville Rifle wasn't any great shakes as a ball carrier, and thus deception suffered.
Consequently, the Deacons. became airminded from the very outset. In a way we see the justification and then again we don't. Wake Forest doesn't have the fastest collection of backs ever as-

value to the students themselves. This, coupled with the reluc
tance of students to report violations of the honor code, is causing the system to fall apart slowly, spokesmen said.
"The council wants every student to think for himself how important it is for a student to be placed upon his honor, to conduct himself as a gentleman, and live up to the trust placed in him," Kornegay remarked.
He waflbs the students that unless they are willing to support the new method of reporting violations, the faculty will probably take action which will result in a P-roctor system.

when it is remembered that the testimony of others than the one reporting the cheating will be necessary ,for the conviction of another student, he continued.
He said that it "will do away with one of the chief causes contributing to the current failure of the honor system, namely, the reluctance in to report cheating cases for fear of b_!iling ostracized among fellow students."
Opinion among the students has not been expressed as yet as most of them have not had an opportunity to think the new change over. Most agreed, however, that it is time that some change is made.

The remaining rungs on the ladder will be pretty much decided by the results of tomorrow's games. Washington and Lee, South ·Carolina, State and Maryland all have a possibility of cinching third place if the right combinations pan .out for each of the teams.
The new change was suggested by Kermit Caldwell, senior. representative to the council. In making the suggestion he was careful to point out that his suggestion would not succeed in stamping out cheating unless the students do their duty in reporting infractions of the honor
code. ~~~.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ --------------------------------------~------------------Caldwell also agreed that some f persons might consider the possibility of reporting a student to

This change in the honor system . .as practiced at Wake Forest ·comes as a result of a two-hour -discussion held by the council last week at which time the faults of the system were reviewed thoroughly.
This discussion was called for by Kornegay who explained that the Council· had been criticized in several quarters for its failure to enforce the honor system. In the discussion that followed various reasons for the failure of· the present system were discussed. The main reason set forth was the failure of students to realize just what the honor system is or its
