winner of the plaque awarded an­nually to the sophomore woman achieving the highest scholastic average during her first three semesters -at William and Mary. Pam Pauly, president of Mortar Board, made the award.

Clare Booth Luce Detained Guest speaker for the evening

was to have been Mrs. Clare Booth Luce, republican represen­tative to Congress from Connec­ticut. Because of the emergency coal strike legislation on the floor of the House, however, she "was unable to come to Williamsburg for the ceremonies. *

Cole­man, eminent neurological sur­geon, member of the Board of Visitors of the College and a for­mer student at William and Mary, will receive the honorary degree of doctor of science.

Faculty Members

Resign Positions Miss Helen H. Black, instructor

in physical education, has resigned from the faculty of the College. Miss Thelma Dodson will take her place.

Miss Mae Graham of the library science department has also re­signed. Miss Nancy Elizabeth Hoyle will replace her in Septem­ber. Miss Hoyle received her A.B. from the College of William and Mary in 1933. While at William and Mary, she was elected to Phi Beta Kappa. In 1938 she received her M.L.S. from Columbia Univer­sity. She has taught at the Col­lege for three summers.

By LB Colonial Williamsburg is losing

any aspect of modernity with the curtailment of electric power be­cause of the recent coal shortage. The state has been requested by authorities to cut power consump­tion by 40% and both the College and Colonial Williamsburg are co­operating to the fullest

All unnecessary lights including those in corridors in academic buildings and dormitories have been turned off, and many social activities both in town and at the College have been cancelled. Even the local theater was closed for several days.

With the prospect of sipping luke-warm cokes while studying for exams in these last hectic weeks, students are stocking up on candles and flashlight batteries in preparation for more drastic measures which may have to be instituted if the situation becomes

MOORE

graver... At this time, however, there is no basis to the rumors that have been rampant among the stu­dent body that lights will be cut at midnight or the water supply will be curtailed.

A ray of light, not artificial, of course, was cast over Williamsburg when Restoration • officials an­nounced that the theater will re­open if diesel power can be secur­ed.

Charles J. Duke, bursar of the College, has urged everyone to conserve all the power possible since the state of Virginia expects all of its agencies and institutions to reduce power uses in the same proportion as they have required reduction of private business and industry. There is the possibility that the College can gain some special concessions for social pri­vileges if everyone cooperates.

This Time . . .

W e Won't Be Back I t is with a note of sadness that we write.the

final words in this column. The time is fast ap­proaching when the class of 1946 will become an­other chapter in the history of the College. All the joys and sorrows, the thrills and disappoint­ments are soon to be relegated to the past-

W e have been eagerly anticipating this gradu­ation for four years, and yet, as the time to leave draws nearer, we feel a stroke of sentimentality, for this time—we won't be back.

W e have gone home before, but always—we came back.

W e have cheered vacations before and scream­ed louder than anyone else for a few extra days just "to get away from here," but each time— we came back.

W e have packed our trunks before and remind­ed everyone that we would see them next fall, and always—we came back.

Soon we will be packing those trunks for the last time, this time saying good-bye, for this time— we won't be back.

Life in Williamsburg and at William and Mary has been fun; it has been difficult; it has been stimu­lating.- T o leave any place after four years is hard to do. T o leave William and Mary is a particularly hard thing to do. True , we will be leaving soon, but only in the physical sense of the word. Actual­ly, we will never completely leave the College, for we will always carry some part of it with us,' and in the same manner we will leave some part of us here at William and Mary. Just as the old brick walks will bear our foot-prints along with those who have gone before, so the College will retain some part of us.

W e have done our fair share of griping and complaining and we have been critical on many issues. But with it all we have a certain sense of

-devotion for the College, for that criticism in it­self shows that through our efforts we wanted to leave William and Mary just a little bit better place than when we came-.

Now our time is spent. But actually we have gained far more than the Latin words on those de­grees will ever show. W e have been broadened by the culture and traditions of this College environ­ment ; we have made friendships that are lasting; we have learned to accept and shoulder responsibility. W e have lived to learn; but above all, we have learned to live.

Just as the Ancient Mariner, we will leave William and Mary sadder and-wiser people. Even though we may forget much of what we have studied here, we have all been prepared for the fight within, which will be a lot harder than the fight without.

As we are spending our last days together, we carry with us the memory of those who have left before their time—never to come back, and who can­not share these parting days with us.

Now it is good-bye—good luck—and thank God for William and Mary !

The Executive Council would like to remind the women, students of the Council's request for sug­gestions for a project to be undertaken by the WSCGA.

This request was made after the treasurer's r e ­port at the last meeting in view of the fact that we have about $100 which could be used for a worth­while addition to the campus.

These suggestions may be turned in to any member of the Executive Council.

Bouquets And Brickbats By LAURIE PRITCHARD

The old saying "Give credit where credit is due" strikes us as a peculiarly fitting ending for the year. Flattery is of no use but honest compliments have an esteemed place in our manner of living, often effecting the same result as a shot of adrenalin. We consider a slam of equal value at times. Thus we shall fulfill the original pur­pose of this column: "to throw bouquets and brickbats" where we . think they are warranted.

One large and overly ripe cabbage we send to >those who stand in front of our P. O. boxes while reading their mail. Our boxes may be empty; but, nevertheless, we .like to satisfy our curiosity. And two of the above mentioned vegetable to the braggarts who walk down the Duke's avenue reading those nice, sweet things the favored one writes. We admit we are pea green but wonder if it is necessary to add bruises to our misery. Subtlely, "One should look where one is walking."

Will We Be Able To Send Roses ? A carload of assorted flowers with praise written on each petal we

send to Mr. Fehr and his songsters, who, despite having cards stacked against them, managed to make a grand slam with the choir, chorus, and glee club. These three organizations have given the College more good publicity than it has had in a long time. Perhaps next year the powers that be will deserve one dozen roses for backing them to the limit financially.

Spartan Determination and Boutonnieres Boutonnieres of violets, roses, carnations, lilies of the valley, and

all the others we should mention to the fraternity' men who did so nobly in reorganizing their chapters and rushing. The odds looked insurmountable. We are assured of the fraternities' strength because they overcame so many obstacles. Their success probably is attri­butable to an inherent Spartan determination and plenty of hard work.

And then a rutabaga to "campus cutters." Streams were made for boats, streets for cars, walks for students, grass for looks.

We would like to send a trumpet, piano, sax, and drums to all the buyers of finals tickets. Again the students showed somebody that they can rally to a good cause even if somebody doesn't have confi­dence in them. We did it for Hudson, Lunceford, and even "?" . Maybe next year somebody will give us the opportunity of rallying for a name instead of a ?.

We send the stage crew our sympathy for all work and no praise.

College Needs "Brush Your Teeth" Routine And in line of the theater we issue a plea to all former and pros­

pective members of the Backdrop Club to revive our varsity show. The spring of 1947 could use a little "Brush Your Teeth" and "Johnny." We've got the talent. Talent, get busy!

Just for a summer pastime we suggest that some member of Alpha chapter of PBK use some of those acclaimed brains to revamp our famous auditorium. If something isn't done soon the College will have-to admit that the balcony is of no use except as peanut heaven. We can hear the shell cracking already.

Slimmed Wastelines Will Result In a serious vein, we have been told the waste of food in Trinkle

Hall is deplorable. We admit that the cuisine is no t ' that of the best restaurants but we advocate slimming the eyes down to the capacity of the stomach. We get a few pangs of conscience when we think of starving people elsewhere and have the urge to send barrels of old turnip greens to the extravagant.

We can't make any such list as we have done without a final bouquet. "Four Roses" and anything else they want to The FLAT HAT staff. They work while we play (Saturdays, Sundays, Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays). If the academic credit system included newspaper 600 we are sure each reporter and editor would rate at least 20 credits each semester. We send them the acclaim which they will most appreciate and which is long overdue— they are loyal members of the fourth estate.

And Tomorrow ! Our. last comment of the year is one • concerning all we've said

here and elsewhere. Every opinion voiced or implied has "next year" understood. We are sure that 1946-47 will be as successful as all tomorrows seem today. Last week's editorial hit the point "WE CAN MAKE IT BETTER THAN BEFORE." We agree.

By FRED FRECHETTE

Next week's FLAT HAT, the last issue of the year 1945-46, will be devoted to sheer nonsense. Anything tinged with seriousness will be out of place in that issue. , This, therefore, will be my last serious column. Next week's effort is already written, waiting for the touch of the linotypist to become a blot upon the page of literary history.

I say that this is my last serious column. To me, it is a serious undertaking since it signifies an end to my four years at William and Mary. Gradu­ation is not yet at hand, but I feel the closeness of it. It may, to some of you, seem strange, but I hate to leave this place. I'll try to tell you why:

THE TIME OF MY LIFE

There will never, I am sure, be another time of my life quite as full as the one I am about to leave. It has been the best time of my life. Thoughts of these past four crowded years bring hosts of kaleidoscopic memories tumbling about me . . . . the days of classes and nights of study;, the triumphs and the failures; the poignant moments of happiness, the heartbreaks; the brain-bruising exams and health-breaking week-ends; the warmth of friendship, the wrath of enemies . . . all of them lumped in one glorious montage that I will ever associate with "college."

There Were Times . . . We all have our moments. I had mine; those

glorious days when all the world was going my way. Some were thrilling; the plays, convocations, ODK . . . . but more of them were more personal, touching only me. Those were the easy days, when each moment was a friend. But, as we face throughout life, there were the bitter disappointments, the tough breaks. Heartbreak, hurting to the very core, is the part that is hard to swallow. The world shares your happiness; your wounds are all for you. But I learned from each, and the next was easier to take.

Friend and Foe

Friendship is a reality, not a memory. It tran­scends a phase of life such as this. Since it was here that I came to know the friends I made, I thank my college for them. But I made enemies, too. Indeed, I learned that I have a special talent, a propensity, towards making foes. I cannot, how­ever, dislike a man because he dislikes me; I can understand why he might. College has given me that part of my education.

Thanks, Doc!

It is strange that, looking back, the one thing that is the raison d'etre of college . . . . classes . . . . is the least outstanding memory. I can recall the sleepless nights, the classes cut, the professors, but not much of what I learned. Study is a chore which few of us can perform with pleasure. I am not a scholar. Perhaps to gain an inkling of how little we know is the greatest thing we can learn. Per­haps, too, if we have learned to respect thought and the ideas which clear thinking engender, we have stumbled upon the value of education. I don't think that my professors' time was entirely wasted. From each, I have received something.

Egg in my Beer

It would be a difficult feat to remember all of the glorious times of the past four years. v They are the closest to mind. Nostalgic memories of dances and dates, Chownings and Rexall's, the Shelter, fabulous week ends, and hazy remembrances of nights befuddled with beer crowd to mind. Vir­ginia can, at times, be wet, even without the rain.

For Better or for Worse

I have heard Williarn and Mary slandered and vociferously booted from one side of the peninsula to" the other. I have heard her praises sung on high. Let us be satisfied to say that there is no other college quite like ours. There are worse; there are better. It can be improved upon, for nothing this side of heaven is perfect. But tearing the old place apart will not improve it. Faults be damned; I love my college!

And Now We Part

This is 'my 56th William and Mary Go-Round. Too many of them, I am afraid, were neither liter­ary masterpieces nor worth the space they occupied. There were some, however, of which I am proud. Perhaps those few, with their gratification to me, plus any enjoyment or benefits I have been able to give to my readers or to the college have made the whole thing worthwhile. Of all the things about William and Mary which I regret leaving, this little column puts the greatest lump in my throat.

G'bye!

How Arc You Saving Electricity? William and Mary is a sad place

without electricity to provide movies or dances for amusement. However, the students have .readi­ly adapted themselves to the situa­tion, with all sorts of remedies for this post-war Williamsburg dim-out. Some of the methods for conserving on electricity are the following:

Jim Macken: "I've stopped play­ing my electric organ."

Ruth Ugarte: "Keep a candle burning instead of a lamp."

Jackie Freer: "No studying." Bobby Doll: "I'm playing more

tennis and opening my books less." Jane Beatty and Mary Ann

Hook: "Spending every night in the sunken gardens."

Snaz Hurt: "I've stopped study­ing."

Betty Wilson: "Keeping the torch burning a little brighter."

Ernie Edwards: "Well, if Jeffer­son and his co-patriots could use candlelight, I can too—and I am!"

Cynthia Wort: "Only using one light in the room."

Kit Bundick: "Dispensing with the use of the radio, and using only a study lamp."

Jane Oblender: "I've cut off the alarm clock."

Ann Hirsch: "I study by flash­light."

Betty Laine: "I'm not doing any­thing."

Jess Jackson: "Studying in the dark!"

Middy Henry: "Studying by candle-light."

Ginny Lore: "I 'm suffering through the Barrett hall dim-out, what with all the trunks, etc., to trip over."

Mac Kyle: "Keeping the radio off—which is really a sacrifice."

Aspiring Pilot Tries Spins, Wants To Avoid Them

Due to the usual Williamsburg weather, much on a par with the famed California climate, flying has been pretty much, at a stand­still this past few weeks. How­ever, I did manage to work in two more lessons, which put me that much nearer to solo-ing.

The first lesson was a continua­tion of my work on take-off's and landings. It's a shame that my well-wishers wern!t on hand, for I managed to look pretty poor on several of my landings. They weren't what could be termed rough, on the whole, but neither were they smooth by any token. As a matter of fact, one of my fiascos resulted in the Cub's bouncing a good five feet off of the ground. The plane is still in flying shape, I believe—no damage done.

Spins It seems that all aspiring pilots

must have a nodding acquaintance with spins; and it was with much glee and rubbing of hands that Mr. Perney helped me into a chute and announced "Well, today we'll try a few spins." Had I known then what I know now, I wouldn't have been so happy about the whole thing, although there was nothing to worry about. I took the plane up to 3,000 feet about halfway be­tween Williamsburg and James­town, and Mr. Perney instructed me to "follow through" on the controls while he put the plane through a spin. He especially in­structed me, to pick a reference point on the ground from which

to judge how many turns the Cub was making in the spin, and thus be able to judge the proper point at which to bring the plane out of the spin.

I had honest intentions of so-doing, until we actually entered the spin. Then, I was too busy watching the wings to see if one would peel off, to watch the ground. I later learned my fears were groundless; for one of the essential features of the spin is that there isn't enough air flowing over the wings to support the plane, and so there is no danger of the wings falling off. Had a couple of bad minutes, though. The purpose of the half-hour in­struction, in spins is to demonstrate to the student the ease with which the plane is recovered, thereby discounting any fear of the spin if the plane should accidentally fall into one. That half hour was enough for me; and now that I know how to handle the plane in spins, I think I'll leave them alone.

A few more lessons, comprising an hour or so, should find me ready to solo. If there is no col­umn next week I will have solo-ed and failed.

Ralph Kirkpatrick

Charms Audience By BOB HAYNE

Monday evening the first of Ralph Kirkpatrick's concerts was presented in the Palace. It gave as complete and satisfying an evening as one in Williamsburg, in Virginia, and widely elsewhere can experience. The concert was of course a reminiscent success— the setting, the . instruments, the musick—but anyone who expected somewhat exquisite quaintness— the reviewer admits it—was re­buked by the authority of the music and of the musician.

That Mr. Kirkpatrick accom­plishes a musical success as well as the expected other is proof- of his ability. For the music is pro­bably unfamiliar to most of those who attended—Uwaldi, Scarlatti, Balbastre, Rameau—and the harp­sichord is not frequently heard. Listening as Mr. Kirkpatrick plays one does not long dwell upon the harpsichord and it mechanics, nor does the unfamiliarity of the music detract as much as one ex­pects from enjoying it. Mr. Kirk­patrick's skill overcomes these ob­stacles and presents music of ele­gance and power. The price of a ticket you perhaps think high. It is, but such an evening is well worth it.

Lodge To Add 'College Night'

Alliston Boyer, of the Williams­burg Restoration, and Thomas Moyles, acting manager of the Williamsburg Lodge, were guests at a meeting of the Pan-Hellenic Council last Monday.

Mr. Boyer spoke to the group on the subject of closer cooperation between the Restoration and the College. He suggested that the game room of the Lodge be open for a "college night" once a week next year. The College, according to Mr. Boyer, would have its choice between Wednesday and Sunday nights. However, on Sun-.day nights, he stated, the stu­dents would in all probability be forced to share the game room with the general public, while on Wednesday nights they could have it to thernselves. It was also sug­gested that sororities and frater­nities could hold their dances here.

These plans are as yet tentative,

as they must be brought up before the sororities and fraternities on campus for approval.

Hostels Offer Europe Travel

An opportunity to participate in the reconstruction of hostels throughout Europe has been pre­sented by American Youth Hos­tels, Inc., an organization dedicat­ing itself to providing inexpensive overnight lodging for "hostelers", people hiking or biking throughout sections of the United States. At an important meeting of the Inter­national Youth Hostel Committee in Paris, February 3-5, an appeal was made for Americans to assist in rebuilding hostels in Europe this Summer.

The announced program of the A. Y. H. calls for 100 hostelers who will spend ten weeks on this re­building project; two weeks on the ocean, two weeks bicycling from one project to another, and two weeks at each of the rebuild­ing projects.

Upon landing in Europe, one third of the group will bicycle to Holland, one third to Luxembourg, and one third to the French Alps. These groups will rotate every two weeks. The whole group will travel to Europe the latter part of June, sailing from New York and returning early in September.

The total cost of this program will be $600, of which $400 is steamship passage. ' The remain­ing $200 will cover the expenses of food and equipment to be used during the trip. Those students who are interested can write to American Youth Hostels, Inc., Na­tional Headquarters, Northfield, Massachusetts.

College Claims Seventh Vessel

After a year of duty<in the Paci­fic, the U.S.S. Botetourt was re­duced to inactive status last month.

Traveling a total of 59,538 miles, the ship was part of Task Force 33, which arrived in Tokyo Bay at the moment Japanese surrender cere­monies were being conducted aboard the U.S.S. Missouri.

The ship, commissioned on Jan­uary 31, 1945, at the Moore Ship­yard in California, left San Fran­cisco on April 8, enroute to Espi-ritu Sancto in the New Hebrides Islands. After this she moved northward, assisting in roll-up missions at the southwest Pacific bases.

The U.S.S. Botetourt, a Victory ship adapted for use as an assault transport, carried units of Marine or Army troops together with their invasion equipment. Commanded by William Alexander Bar, USNR, the ship's company consisted of 47 officers and 368 enlisted per­sonnel.

Fine Arts Students Exhibit Painting, Sculpture, Design

Different Mediums Show Subjects

Ranging From Realistic To Abstract By PATTY LOU YOUNG

Art, from the standpoint of an amateur, is at times a somewhat bewildering affair. As I climbed the steps to Phi Bete, I anticipated the view I would have at the Stu­dent Art Exhibit of the work pre­sented by the aspiring artists on our campus.

On entering? the quiet, dimly lit room, I seemed to step, for a moment, from the world of reality into one of immagination. Rang­ing from Architectural Designs to surrealistic displays, the exhibit exemplified almost every form of art. Since it would be impossible to give full account of each piece of work, I can only give my opin­ion of those which most impressed me. In sculpture, which is most­ly abstract, I liked Race Riot for action; The Reluctant Dragon, for playfulness; Mother and Child, for loftiness; and Panic for emotion. The two fountain designs, situated in the center of the room, dis­played a certain solid strength. In the strictly abstract forms, Gust of Wind and Growth were outstanding for their sweeping lines. The wood designs,Te,ho and Repost brought out the qualities of the wood to the greatest advan­tage. In a class of its own, Futility on a Wet May Morning, was a trial in the surrealistic line.

As I proceeded around through the room my attention was drawn to waiter colors. The illustration design, The Country Mouse and the City Mouse, immediately struck my eye. Williamsburg Kit­chen, St. George Tucker House, and Deane Shop and Forge, were excellent in their freshness of

Supper Club Plans Activities On Trip

Making plans for next year's Supper Club program was the purpose of a week end trip held by the Presbyterian students last Saturday and .Sunday, May 11 and 12. The group stayed at Dr. Tucker's cottage just below York-town.

Saturday night was reserved for planning meetings and Sunday was reserved for informal ideas for the 1946-'47 program and for recrea­tion as well, according to Mr. W. P. Anderson. Professor and Mrs. R. Wayne Kernodle acted as chap-erones.

Members of the council are Ed Lewis, Winnie Jones, Paul Bur-bank, Marjorie Dykes, Nancy Mc­Lean, Emily Scott, Howard Gilki-son, Bob Stedman, Aubrey Mason, Barbara Rommell, "Sissy" Bar-gerstock, Etta Lou Wilson, and Alice White.

color, which is often difficult to obtain in water color. Most of the still life paintings, however, lack­ed variety in color. William Ex­plains to Mary was a trial in bringing sharp dark lines to the foreground to make the subject stand out. Backstreet was a dark, sombre painting of old houses.

Next I turned to the Gil Paint-Chicken Dinner, Shoeing t h e the Horse, and The Lily Pond, by the ' same artist, were perhaps the most striking and professional of the oils. Mountain Cabin, an ex­periment in Pointalism, was ex­tremely effective. Using the pas­tel theme, Ballet Dancers, was an­other of the outstanding works. The Sot and The Blitzed House were rather drab in color but in­teresting in subject. In spite of the eerie theme, Apple Blossoms was refreshingly colorful.

The Life Drawings and the Ar­chitectural Designs completed the tour of the exhibit, feeling that I knew a little more about art, and certainly more impressed by the work of the wire and the brush.

Gill Hurls Win Over Va. Tech

Giving up but four scattered hits, Bob Gill hurled William and Mary to a victory over Virginia Tech, 7-1, last Monday at Blacks-burg.

Big guns for the Tribe were shortstop Tommy Korczowski and left-fielder Lucas; each collecting two hits in four times at the plate. Korczowski polled a home run in the rout, which increased his total to three round-trips in two games.

Tech's pitcher, From, gave up seven hits in seven innings and was relieved when the Tri-Color had a three-run spree in their half of the seventh. Redd, another VPI pitcher, took over in the eighth and allowed two hits.

Netcher, Phillips, and Post in­creased their batting averages by slamming out run-producing trip­les. • The locals left only five men on base, while the Techmen left eight.

The Indians meet a trio of op­ponents this week end. On Friday and Saturday they play host to Duke and North Carolina State. Then on Sunday the squad travels to Richmond to tackle the Country Club of Virginia,

Despite the fact that Coach Sharvy Umbeck took only six-men on the Tribe's sedohd Northern trip, this number" prfived entirely sufficient to dispose of Penn and Swarthmore by scores of 9-0, giv­ing the Indian netters six shutouts in their dozen matches played so far.

In winning their 22nd and 23rd consecutive victories the Redmen took care of the two Pennsylvania squads without much trouble al­though being without the services of their number one man, Gardner Larned. Tut Bartzen took over the the top spot and the rest of the team each moved up one, with George Miller coming in at num­ber six.

Penn's outfit tried hard and forced the visitors into some lengthy matches but were not able to take any engagements; The Redmen swept Swarthmore aside with the loss of only a single set. Bren and Jim Macken were the last doubles team to finish and thus gained the. distinction of win­ning the 100th match of the season for William and Mary.

Virginia SquacTGains 72 Points To Win State AAU Track Meet

Redmen Capture One Event, Taking Third With 17* Points

The University of Virginia easily ran away with first place in the state AAU meet held here last Saturday. Virginia collected 72 points, Camp Lee was second with 20% markers and William and Mary came in third with 17% points.

High scorer of the meet was "Mac" McCurdy from the Camp Lee squad. He collected 10 points, nosing out Nicastro from Virginia in the 880-yard run, and winning out in the close 440-yard run. Second with eight tallies was Hardy, a hurdler from the University of Virginia.

He copped first in the high hurdles

The intramural swim meet was won by Lee Aston of the indepen­dents who racked up a total of 10 points. Aston took first place in the 100-yard crawl and first in the 50-yard crawl with a new record time of 27.8 seconds in the latter event. Theta Delta Chi seized sec­ond position with a total of 9 points, Lambda Chi Alpha was third with 8 points and Kappa Sigma third with 7 points and Sig­ma Rhd last with 5 points:

The 50-yard back stroke was taken by Jack Wilson of Lambda Chi, the time being 63.8. Harry Wenning of Sigma Rho set a new record in 50-yard breast stroke with a time of 36.5 seconds. Bob DeForest came in second for Theta Delta Chi. In the 50-yard crawl Bucky Hyle. placed second and Frank Beal third, both for Kappa Sigma. Hyle was also second in 100-yard crawl, while Mike Bailey of Theta Delta Chi was third. The time was 72 seconds. DeForest was first in the one man medley and Wilson was second, the time being 48.3.

Two matches of the tennis tournament had been played off as of last Saturday. Bill Lugar won over Bob Burns, and Herb Tucker over Jini Field. In the third round, which ended Monday, Gene Purdam was to have played Bill Denault, and Roy Shelar was to compete with Harvey Levine.

The third round of the horseshoe tournament also ended Monday. John Trempus defeated Fred Deans, Jere Bunting, defeated Jack Harmon; and Bob Quackenbush defeated Harry Borden.

in 16.1 seconds, and took second in the low hurdles.

The Tribe's relay team showed their speed in this event, winning by 30 feet. Ramsey, Steckroth and Deierhoi came in first in their lap, and anchor-man Sherry held the advantage to come in ahead of the Camp Lee man. The time was 3:41.6.

One record was broken in the . meet. Wasser, from the Little Creek Amphibious Base, heaved the shot put 49 feet, 11% inches, to better the previous record by approximately four feet. Ray Lizana picked up a second for William and Mary in this event.

Except for the mile relay, Wil­liam and Mary didn't gain any first places. However, Ramsey got a third in the 440-yard run, Wilson came in third in the mile, Wenning received a third in the javelin event, Bunting came in fourth in the high hurdles, and Burbank tied for fourth place in the pole vault.

Organizations which entered teams were Langley Field, Wash­ington and Lee University, Camp Peary, Little Creek Amphibious Base, Roanoke Recreation Depart­ment, William and Mary, Univer­sity of Virginia, Camp Lee, and the Naval Mine Depot.

Jim Stewart, Indian Hurler, Lost Because Of Arm Strain

Jimmy Stewart, Tribe mound ace, has a record of four wins against two losses in his first year at William and Mary. Jim beat Randolph-Macon 2-i and shut out Richmond 5-0, allowing the capital boys only three hits. After win­ning two other games Jimmy faced Washington and Lee after only two days rest, and for the first time in his career was knocked out of the box.

After losing to Randolph-Macon, a specialist confirmed the fact that Jim was being plagued by the nemesis of a large number of hur-lers, a bad arm. The muscles in his elbow have been severely strained and if there is no im­provement after a month's rest, they will call for an operation.

It was at East Orange, New Jer­sey, that Jini first began playing American sports. By this time he was already familiar with the game of soccer which he played while living in Scotland. Jim made five trips to Scotland and at­tended an academy in Glasgow, where he was goalie on the soccer team and still carries scars to prove that the game, when played correctly, is really rougher than the American variety commonly played by girls.

After his freshman year, Jim moved to Bloomfield, New Jersey, where he concentrated on baseball and laid the foundation of a pos­sible major league career. His

junior year, he was selected for the All-state nine and the Bloom-field nine took the State Cham­pionship his senior year. Jim was picked as the most valuable player in the tournament and the Newark Bears took him on a trip through Canada.

Faced with a choice between an immediate jump into, organized baseball or college, Jim decided on college and William and Mary. He had received offers from the Yanks, Giants, Indians, and Phil­lies. Jim, a possible Spanish ma­jor, is only eighteen and will be at a good age to move into baseball when he graduates.

Any time he is able to tear away from baseball is spent in listening to his record collection, and strangely enough his favorite disc is "Jersey Bounce." According to Jim, "The Voice" is a first in any list of crooners and a regular guy.

The age old argument that ath­letes have nothing but muscle in their heads was refuted by Jim who graduated twenty-first in a graduating class of over six hun­dred at Bloomfield and was the ranking letterman in scholastic averages. '

The Scotch are really not the close-fisted people that all the stories picture them. Jim, who is Scotch, believes that all the jokes are made up by the Scotch them­selves, who have a great sense of humor.

Skirts In Sports By BETTY COUMBE

Recently there appeared in the Sports Spiel a column devoted to the actions of spectators at tennis matches. Apparently naught came of it since the conduct of the on­lookers at the University of Miami match proved to be very embar­rassing to the players and offi­cials.

No Small Matter It might seem an extremely ir-

relevent matter to the passerby whether a person shouted in the middle of a point or clapped at a foolish mistake by a player. How­ever, tennis participants play in much closer proximity to the spec­tators that athletes in other sports. Thus it is of the utmost impor­tance that the audience does not in any way distract from the play­ers' concentration.

Tennis is not all footwork and court tactics. There is a great deal of psychology involved that most people are wont to overlook. It is nice to know tha your rooters are pulling for you but it is equally uncomfortable to realize that everyone is waiting with baited

' breath for you to make a mistake. Good shots deserve applause whether executed by your favorite player or his opponent.

Nationally Prominent Team William and Mary has been

blessed this year with a team that bids fair to win the national inter­collegiate trophy and right now is ranked as the number one team in the country on many coaches' lists.

When visiting netters invade the campus already well advised by advanced publicity of the home teams potentialities they don't ex­pect to find a rowdy bunch of spectators who need only hot dogs and peanuts to make them look like they're witnessing a World Series contest. A good team needs enthusiastic rooters but in tennis hold your vim, vigor, etc., until an exceptional shot has been made by EITHER player to end the point and THEN let go.

It is a foregone conclusion by us that we have the best squad in the country. Now let's make it

Indians Hammer Peary Pirates

The Camp Peary Naval Mine Depot went down before the In­dian nine last Wednesday by a score of 22-3 at Cary Field.

Two pitchers were used for the Redmen. Both Stan Magdziak and Bernie Bernhard took turns on the mound, with Stan coming out the victor. The visitors used five pitchers in attempting to stop the Indians' 21-hit barrage.

The Big Green started their run scoring with the first man up, and didn't stop until the last man was out in a game that lasted only seven innings. They scored four runs in the first frame, and scored in every inning after that except the fifth.

Big guns at bat for the locals were Tommy Korczowski, Les Hooker, and Jack Netcher. Tom­my bashed out two home runs, knocking in four runs altogether, while Jack Netcher hit two triples and a single. Les Hooker went five for five, with a home run, two triples, and two singles. He bat­ted in a total of five runs.

Water Circus Given May 9

Blow Pool was the setting for a Water Circus sponsored by the Water Safety Corps on Thursday. With a background of music and gay costumes, the members of the corps, the swimming team and ad­vanced swimming classes, present­ed in ten acts their version of a three ring circus.

The first act was the Grand March, which included everyone posing as various sea animals. Comic performances followed, such as a group of trained seals played by Bonnie Green, Penny Allenbaugh, Roberta Majesky and Virginia Whittemore; a Puppy Dog Race, in which Girl Scouts of Wil­liamsburg participated; and clown acts, performed by Harriet Hoch­strasser, Jane Anne Hogg, Jane Seaton, Elizabeth Mylander, Elaine O'Hare and Barbara Davidson. Swimming formations were direct­ed by Eleanor Lang, who also combined with Marjorie Williams to present a water duet.

Douglas Performs Following the intermission, Otis

W. Douglas, Jr., gave a demon­stration of Water Safety in using a canoe and surfboard. He is a graduate of the College of William and Mary in 1934 and formerly served on the staff of the Physical Education Department before he accepted a position at the Univer­sity of Akron. He is well known

Coming from a physical educa­tion family in which her mother, father and sister have all been connected with the profession, it was only natural that Peggy Bur­dick major in the subject at col­lege. In fact, Peg is the only senior physical education major in the school.

Peggy hails- from Baltimore, where she earned herself an out­standing reputation in high school athletics. Besides playing varsity tennis, she represented her high school in hockey and basketball. She also was honored by being elected to the Girls' Leaders Club for student leaders and outstand­ing athletes.

In the fall of '42, Peg entered William and Mary and began a distinguished record in sports. She played on the freshman hockey squad and in intramurals, in which she helped Jefferson cap­ture the intramural cup.

In her junior year, the physical education major won a position on the varsity hockey team, a position which she maintained this season as a senior.

During her stay here, Peg has been a charter member of two new physical education organiza­tions on campus. She helped form the H2E Club and this year served as its president.

The second organization she aid­ed in forming is the Officiating Group. In the two years this has been on campus, Peg has earned ratings in soccer, hockey, tennis, and basketball. In the latter sport, she recently earned her national rating, an honor which very few people attain as students.

Chi Omega (Continued From Page 5)

during the contest the winners al­lowed their opponents to score not more than eight times. Ann Johnson made the only home run, which came with two runners on base.

Kappa Kappa Gamma tangled with Kappa Delta on Friday when they played off for third place. It was a close match, both teams taking the lead at regular inter­vals. The Kappa Deltas won by a one run margin when they scored the winning run in the last inning, making the score 9-8.

The standings are as follows: first, Chi Omega; second, Tri Delt; third, Kappa Delta; fourth, Kappa Kappa Gamma; fifth, Pi Beta Phi; sixth, Kappa Alpha Theta; seventh, Phi Mu; eighth, Gamma Phi Beta; ninth, Alpha Chi Omega.

for his work with small craft. Also included on the program

was a demonstration of Water Safety techniques directed by Josephine Hubbell. Just before the Grand Finale, which was a swiming formation entirely by candlelight, the door prize, a bowl of goldfish, was won by Caroline Carver.

Intramural Head Her most outstanding job at

W-M this year has been as Student Head of Intramurals. According to Dr. Caroline Sinclair, head of the physical education department, she has done an excellent job. For proof of this, one has only to look at the smooth way in which intra­murals have gone off during the '45-'46 season.

After graduation, Peg says, "I will either end up teaching phy­sical education or —I hope—doing recreation work." She has spent the past two summers doing re­creation work and laments the fact that she came to school too soon to take the recreation major course hat will be started next year.

Camp Counselor For her future work, her teach­

ing at Matthew Whaley will aid her greatly. According to Peg, "The work there presents an op­portunity to tackle situations you find in high schools everywhere." Another aid will be her work of several summers ago as a camp counselor, in which capacity she taught tennis and swimming.

Departing from physical edu­cation, Peg takes an avid interest in dramatics and1 antiques, especi­ally buttons and blue glassware. Although she says she has been too busy for hobbies during the last few years. She has found some time for reading. In this department, she likes "good" books, particularly novels.

"Citizens In Action" Seek Support Of Food Relief Committee Urges IndividualConcern

"Citizens in Action," a commit­tee created to defeat selfish poli­tical interests in the national gov­ernment, has inaugurated a pro­gram to back the move in America to send food to starving Europe. Aid is being sought by the com­mittee from each individual citi­zen in the country in a three-point system of attack.

The three methods of contribut­ing to the program are 1.) by vol­untary saving, conservation and production, 2.) by contribution of money or actual goods to be sent to starving people, and 3.) by sup­porting Washington in the mea­sures taken and pounding it for further action.

In supporting Washington, let­ters can be written to President Truman and Clinton F. Anderson, Secretary of Agriculture, to Con­gressmen and Senators, and to pri­vate organizations congratulating them or criticizing them on special actions they have taken.

Distributing outlines of letters to be used in the campaign, the Citizens in Action stated, "We have got to make up the ground already lost, and provide for the coming year. Every individual citizen and every family has an immediate part to play, because without citizen insistence, coopera­tion and enthusiasm, we won't be­gin to do it. •

"Individually, in cooperation, and through our government (each element is equally important, and is indispensable to the other),

Eagleton Stresses Necessity Of Five Power Agreement

The last Marshall-Wythe Semi- i nar for this year will be held on Friday, May 17, at 4:00 p. m. in Rogers Hall. Parting from the custom of having outside speakers, a College faculty panel under chairmanship of Dr. S. Donald Southworth will conduct this meeting. The topic will be "America's Role in Possible Solu­tions." Other members of the panel are Bruce ,T. McCully, Miss Evelyn M. Acomb, W. Warner Moss, Edgar M. Foltin, and Sharvy G. Umbeck.

"If the five powers agree, the UN has enormous authority. If they do not agree, it is pretty well stymied," stated Professor Clyde Eagleton of New York University, distinguished scholar in the field of international law, before the Seminar meeting on Friday, May 10.

Chairman for the meeting was Miss Evelyn Acomb, who intro­duced Mr. Eagleton's topic, "The United Nations Organization and World Cooperation." Miss Acomb commented on the speaker's out­standing qualifications, citing his numerous works regarding inter­national organization. He is well known for his participation in the San Francisco conference of last year.

Mr. Eagleton began by outlining

some of the basic concepts in the organization of the United Na­tions. He first made it clear that it is not a world superstate. Do­mestic problems are not taken up by the security council, and in no field can a state be obligated to do anything it does not want to do.

Continuing, Mr. Eagleton re­flected that the United States made the UN Charter, and made it as weak as possible. We rejected the idea of a world police force, and we rejected compulsory juris­diction of the world court. He said however, that the people were squarely behind this strategy to conserve our national sovereignty, since we have not yet evolved to that point where we can accept a world state.

Mr. Eagleton came out strongly for internationalization of the atomic bomb. He recommended giving the UN the rights of in­spection and the right of control over materials for its production. Further, he favors an international police force to insure compliance.

In closing, the speaker declared that Russia is now in a very dis­advantageous position because of its relative unpopularity, and that if the United States will take the lead in the right direction in strengthening the UN, most of the nations will lend us their support.

Decca is a great one for going in for readings ahd recorded bits from shows.. Looking over their latest batch of recorded propa­ganda, there is indication that Decca intends to keep on with this policy.^5 Soon available will be an album, SING OUT, SWEET LAND, from the musical of the same title. Alfred Drake and the highly publicized Burl Ives are given top billing in this collection of long standing favorites, such as BLUE TAIL FLY, THE ROVING GAM­BLER, FRANKIE AND JOHNNIE, BIG ROCK CANDY MOUNTAIN, and I'M GOING DOWN THE ROAD. Also slated for release soon -is another album NO MAN IS AN ISLAND, with the dramatic narrator, Orson Welles. Here, the creator of the war with Mars set­tles down to a patriotic medium, reading ringing, eloquent, and im­mortal words of famous men— Pericles, John Donne, Thomas Paine, Patrick Henry, the inevit­able Lincoln (his Gettysburg ad­dress), and so on. Yet another collection of records offered by Decca is a series of readings for children called, THE CHILDREN'S HOUR. On three ten inch records, Donald Crisp, of movie fame, tells the kiddies all about THE VIL­LAGE B L A C K S M I T H , THE BUILDING OF A SHIP and other appropriate subjects. Longfellow •—in case you didn't spot it—-is re ­sponsible for the material read.

There isn't .too much J. C. Hig-ginbotham in Red Allen's DRINK HEARTY (But Stay With Your Party), and THE CRAWL isn't the acme of perfection, but both items are interesting, and possibly a cue for more records by Allen's very talented group. A foggy sounding vocal on DRINK HEAR­TY is big factor in the success of the performance. (Victor).

Perry Como takes Russ Colom­bo's oldie, PRISONER OF LOVE, for a modernized rendition. The words will make the realist shud­der . . . it's complete with love shackles, balls and chains, et al. Como insists on singing, "prizznuh of love," but it is still a fact that

Perry is among the best of this swooner era. Russ Case, former Raymond Scott side man,' directs the sugarey accompanying studio ork. Backing is current fave, ALL THROUGH THE DAY, and Como is at his best. (Victor).

Two items worth looking into are Fred Lowery's (the blind whistler formerly with Horace Heidt) FROM THE LAND OF THE SKY BLUE WATER (Col­umbia) and Larry Adler's ST. LOUIS BLUES and BLUES IN THE NIGHT. John Kirby is coupled with the harmonica wiz­ard on the latter, but, of course, Adler is heard on just about all of the wax. There is one spot on ST. LOUIS BLUES, however, that Kirby is heard briefly in a cadenza that sounds like the old Victor Kirby recording of the same title. (Decca).

Henri Rene; long known for his Musette Orchestra, has an unusual coupling on Victor International Series, JALOUSIE and, of all things, HORA STACCATO as a polka, complete with accordians and all such polkalike devices. JALOUSIE, possibly the better of the two sides, is notable mainly because of the velvety accordians and strings.
