The choir will be under the direction of Carl A. Fehr and Andrew C. Haigh, associate professor of fine arts, will appear as pianist at the concert.

The William and Mary choir, while singing in "The Common Glory," received recognition in the state as an outstanding singing group and national recognition from Brooks Atkinson, New York Times drama critic, who stated, "the William and Mary choir, one of Williamsbur"g's finest treasures, sings magnificently."

The program for this Sunday is divided into six groups and in­cludes selections by the choir and Dr. Haigh. The choir will sing Brahms' Moset, Op. 29, No. 1, Moz­art's Adoramus Te, Christe, Pales-trina's Ecce Vidimus, Tschesnok-off's Salvation Is Created, Murry's Madame Jeanette,, The Lone Prairie.arranged by Wilson, Win-tors Etude for Chorus, Set Down Servant arranged by Shaw, a Czeecho-Slovakian folksong ar­ranged by Manning, Anerio's Christus Factus Est, Bach's Come, Soothing Death, i « t Us Break Bread Together arranged by Ry­der, and Cherubim Song by Muzi-cheski-Tkach.

Istomin To Give

Concert Tuesday Eugene Istomin, talented young

American pianist, will inaugurate the 1947-48 concert series with a performance in Phi Beta Kappa hall on Tuesday, Nov. 4, at 8 p. m.

Born in New York City in 1925, the young virtuoso showed re­markable genius at an, early age. His Russian parents were both singers, and six-year-old Istomin, who had up to that time received no formal musical training, served as accompanist to his mother in a concert appearance. ••^'-As-'-a-',"'chlldi;.:h"e',-'-stud'ied;-at:-.the Mannes school but showed a pre­ference for sports. His interest in his musical career developed only after he entered the Curtis Insti­tute at the age of 14. There he studed under Miecio Horszowski and Rudolph Serkin. Success came first with the winning of the Youth Contest of,the Philadelphia Orchestra in the spring of 1943.

The following autumn, Istomin won the Leventritt Award and ap­peared with the New York Phil­harmonic and conducter Artur Rodzinski in Carnegie hall.

Next Tuesday's program will in­clude Beethoven's Moonlight Son­ata, eleven Chopin preludes, two Rachmaninoff preludes, The Girl

Brose Heads Cast

In Wilder Comedy By Ronald King

Weird comedy will take the spotlight in Phi Beta Kappa hall as director Althea Hunt and the William and Mary Players unwrap the theatrical season at 8 p. m. to­morrow and T'hursday^with "The Skin of Our Teeth."

The play, which includes every­thing from dinosaurs to bathing beauties, is an unorthodox comedy by Thornton Wilder, who penned the equally unorthodox "Our Town." The human race is the subject under discussion in this show, which compresses the his­tory of man into something over two hours.

Joe Buchanan, comic star of last summer's "Common Glory," takes center stage as Mr. George Antro-bus, "Inventor of the wheel and pioneer in the brewing of beer," among other things. Gene Griffin portrays Mrs. - Antrobus, wife of George, and "every inch 'a mam­mal."

Brose Plays Lead Top billing, however, goes to

Marianna Brose, a Pennsylvania 'co-ed who defied theatre tradition by-copping a-leading role in her freshman year. Marianna treads the Phi Bete boards for the first time as Sabina, a part in which Tallulah Bankhead emoted a few

Men Name Five For Homecoming Queen In Preliminary Elections By Jan Walser

Patricia Jones, Ruth Maroney, Jo Wattles, Betty Littlefield, and Jeanne Owens are the five nomi­nees for homecoming queen who were selected in last Thursday's preliminary voting.

Pat, who is from Dallas, Tex., is a member of Pi Beta Phi, a rep­resentative to the Student Assem­

bly, and chairman of the social committee of the sophomore class.

Ruth's home town is Atlanta, Ga. A junior, she is a member of Kappa Alpha Theta and is major­ing in Spanish.

Jo, a junior, who is from Wil­liamsburg, is a member of Pi Beta Phi, and was queen of Homecom­ing last year.

Betty's home is in Swarthmore, Pa. She is president of Kappa Alpha Theta, a member of the senior class, and was an attendant of the queen in last year's home­coming celebration.

Jeanne, a senior, who is from Pittsburgh, Pa., is a member of Kappa Delta and the judicial com­mittee, and is house president of

Jefferson hall. William Gould, chairman of the

elections committee, announced that Jean Canoles, Shirley Spra-gue, Alice Lee Ritchie, and Jean Myers were the runners-up. "It was a very close election," Bill stated, "and we were very pleas­ed that three-fourths of the men students cast their votes for 75 dif­

ferent nominees." The five contestants will be pre­

sented at the Wake Forest pep rally, Friday, Oct. 31. Final vot­ing is scheduled for Monday, Nov. 3, on college corner.

The queen and her court will be presented between the halves of the homecoming game with VMI on Saturday, Nov. 8.

To the Editor: Inflation is here. That can be

proved by stepping into any of the local stores and comparing prices with those of a few years a ago. Inflation is defined by economists as an upward spiral of wages and prices. Apparently the College of William and Mary does not realize this, or at any rate, they believe that a spirial is a lop-sided figure. They have raised room rents, laun­dry and cafeteria rates, but the wages paid to students who are employed by the college have ex­perienced no appreciable change.

To my knowledge, the prevail­ing student wage is between 40 and 60 cents an hour. Compared to the scale of wages existing in private industry, this is practical­ly slave labor. The work done by many students would be classed as •semi-professional, requiring some previous training or experience. If people outside the college were hired for these jobs, at least twice as much would have to be paid.

Ask any veteran whether he can make both ends meet on $65 a month. The answer is invari­ably no. It is even more difficult for those who are not under the G. I. Bill of Rights. Being able to •earn part of your expenses is a

great help, and most of us who are employed are grateful for the opportunity. However, the meagre earnings which result from em­ployment within the college hard­ly make it worth the effort—and it is both an effort and a sacrifice to devote time which could be spent in studying or more pleasant occupations than to,working.

The college is benefitting itself, the individual and society when it assists those in their education who would be unable to attend school otherwise. An increase in student wages would probably re ­sult in greater efficiency and pro­vide even more benefit for every­one concerned. . ,

Sincerely,

To the Editor: In The FLAT HAT, Alumni

Gazette, and in the general trend of thought around William and Mary over the past year or so, there has arisen the question, What's wrong jwith William and Mary? *'

One of the basic answers to this problem can be found, I believe, in the organization' of campus elec­tions. They are as non-represen­tative of the student body as the local elections are of the citizens of Williamsburg, which is saying quite a bit. Pressure groups com­posed of fraternities and sororities are the embodiment of the campus political machine. This situation causes a lack of interest in elec­tions by a large proportion of the student body and, as a direct re ­sult, a lack of interest in class functions and in campus politics.

The nominating system of ' the college is in direct support of this situation, for many potential lea­ders do not have the brass to pass a petition among their friends,

[^nominating 'themselves for candi­dacy to an office. True, often these leaders are found by one of the pressure, groups and in this way are nominated. This, how­ever, too often depends on other qualities then those qualifying the nominee for the office.

I will not try to offer a solution | to these problems but I believe the

organization of an independent students' union would be a step in the right direction. This type of organization has proved workable at many other schools. I t would give a voice to the now politically silent independent students. As an inevitable result, William, and Mary would become more of a community and less of a function­al institution!

Sincerely,

Robert M. Burger.

To the Editor: William and Mary students

showed a very distinct lack of school spirit, Friday when they failed to support the pep rally for the football team to any degree. When the bus taking the team to Richmond was ready to leave, only .a handful of students were on hand to help the cheerleaders and band provide spirit for the grid-ders.

Such has been the case in most of the William and Mary games this fall, with the students getting excited to any great degree only before the North ' Carolina game.

While the football team is good and can play a good game most any time, the level of their play is raised if they are certain that the student body wants them to win.

The team was a long way from Williamsburg Saturday night, and the support for them in the grand­stands was very light. Had a lar­ger and more spirited group of stu­dents been on hand to wish the.ni off, chances are that they could have played a more spirited game themselves.

Spirit should be high for all the games. A good example is the brand of spirit generated at the University of North Carolina, where the team always has a large number of supporters on hand and plenty of pep. While it was not practical for most W&M suppor­ters to go to Boston, they will have a chance to show their confi­dence in the team in pep rallies during the remainder of the sea-

Sophomores To Hold Tribunal O n Thursday

Freshman tribunal is sched­uled for Thursday, Oct. 30, at 6:30 p. m. behind the Wren building, according to John Dayton, president of the sopho­more class.

"There will be no 'gag' punishment inflicted on the freshmen at the meeting, and Since the meeting is to be pre­dominantly serious, it is import­ant that all freshmen attend. Upperclassmen are urged to at­tend also. Various student lea­ders have been asked to speak at the meeting," Dayton de­clared.

In 1824-25 an attempt was made to move the college to Richmond as a means of increasing enroll­ment. The effort failed.

Penn To Publish Caldwell's Book *On Whipping

"Red Hannah: Delaware's Whip­ping Post," by Dr. Robert G. Cald­well, associate professor of soci­ology at the.College of William and

rMary, is scheduled for publication on Friday, Oct. 31 by.the Univer­sity of Pennsylvania Press, at Philadelphia.

Originally the "post" in southern Delaware was printed red, and when a prisoner was whipped the Negroes used to ' say that he had hugged Red Hannah, which is per­haps the most provocative of the various nicknames given the whip­ping post during its long and tur­bulent history. Dr. Caldwell's book presents a complete account of the centuries-old controversy raging round Delaware's.continued use of the whipping post and is told against a background of his­torical incident and sociological fact.

Dr. Caldwell, who formerly taught sociology at the Universi­ties of Delaware and Pennsylvania, and has had published numerous articles on crime and punishment, is also the author of "The l^ew Castle County Workhouse," a his­tory and survey of Delaware's lar­gest penal institution, and "The Penological Development in Dela­ware 1638-1945," a section of the new "History of Delaware" pub­lished this- year.

King And Leach

Plan Show Script The Varsity show of 1948 began

to take on some tangible form this week with eight complete scenes worked out by co-authors Wilford Leach and Ronald King.

Leach, technical director of the show, commented, "Ronnie and I have been working on ideas since last summer, and now we devote each Sunday to writing the script for the production.'" Neither of the writers will divulge the plot of the forthcoming musical, but they hinted that it will be a review with a number of sets and a very large cast.

"At the organizational meeting," stated King, the show's producer, "we invited other members to sub­mit scripts. To my knowledge no; person or group is working on such a project; so Leach and I assume that ours is thte one and only. Ken Scott and Jini Elliott," he continu­ed, "plan to write a few scenes in «onjunction with our plot. If anyone^ else is interested in work­ing on a scene or two, please con­sult Leach or me."

Deadline for the script is Nov. 30, and at- that time Dick Beatty, musical director for the Varsity show, will have an idea of the number and types of. songs re­quired. Jean Cutler, head of choreography, is mapping out dances as the writing progresses.

Botty has more fun on week ends than anybody, and he's all for instituting a one-day prepara­tion, two days of play and one-day recuperation. What d'ya say, kiddies? _ ' Remember" the Carolina week end? or .will you ever forget: Lyman Chenault dehydrated and taking to orange juice; Si Nelms replaced in the second half of the game— the spirit overcame him;- Ann Vineyard with Rock Palese (Mary Allen Phillips was in town.); Elaine Ott, the cabin party gal, with Lyon Tyler; Fred Kovaleski

"The script," added Leach, "is formulated so that we can allow for specialty numbers and novelty routinest of all kinds. If anyone has an original song to submit we can fit it into the show."

The co-authors admitted that much of what remains to be writr ten will depend to a great extent on the preliminary try-outs which will be held soon after homecom­ing. Members of the club are pre­paring selections to audition before the production chiefs at the try-outs.

Magazine Plans

To Recruit Women

For College Board Mademoiselle magazine again

plans to recruit college women for its College Board this ;year.

For 11 years, the publication has accepted contributions and ideas from college women. Twenty women are then chosen to serve as guest editors. These women spend the month of June at Mademoi­selle's New York offices and par­ticipate in the magazine's Jobs and Futures Conferences. .

Miss Nancy Garoutte, College Board editor, writes, "Yes, we want members with fashion talent, of course. But since we're a well-rounded magazine, we want a well-rounded College Board—and that means not only girls whose after-, college majors will be fashion or merchandising or promotion or fiction, but also - girls who are passionately interested in psych or science, sociology or anthropology, drama or child care."

College Board members fill three assignments throughout the. year. Guest editors are paid while work­ing in New York and also receive transportation.

Undergraduate women in any ac­credited college or junior college are eligible. >The rules of the mag­azine require entrants to submit a trial report of two type-written, double-spaced pages on any new phase of campus life. A snapshot and information on college and home addresses, class year, college major and minor, college activities and job experience should be sent to the College Board Editor, Mademoiselle, 122 East 42nd' Street, New York-17, N. Y. Deadline for applications is midnight, Nov. 1, 1947.

Strong Deacon Team Invades Williamsburg Saturday Cage Players Working Hard Under Wilson

Basketball practices have been continuing with supervision by the coach three times a week and Work by the men themselves the other two days, and Coach Barney Wilson stated that he was well sat­isfied with progress so far.

He has not yet divided the squad, wanting more time to get a look at the performances of the men and decide who are the best prospects.

The players themselves, how­ever, are rounding into shape quite Well and will be in good con­dition in a few more weeks. The actual teaching will be given as the team gets into condition and to a greater degree afterward.

Wilson stated that he needed a freshman to help martage the cage squad. "He will have a chance to learn managing from the ground up, and will have much opportu­nity with the team," Wilson added.

Several new goals have been in­stalled in the gymnasium in order to allow for more practice by the court team.

STARTING TAILBACK for Wake Forest Saturday is expected to be Tom Fetzer (above), who has been one of the top performers for Coach D. C. (Peahead) Walker's team this fall.

SMOKE SIGNALS B y BILL. G R E E R

Southern Conference officials are carrying to excess their probes into the eligibility, or perhaps the purity, of "athletes within their domain, and they are making some rather ridiculous moves in banning athletes.

The most recent cases have involved athletes enrolled at William and Mary, North Carolina and Richmond. They are,-Wray Sherman of W&M who changed schools, and Charlie Justice of UNC and Vernon Morgan of Richmond, both charged with professionalism. v

Sherman was one of Coach Barney Wilson's most promising bas­ketball prospects, having gained experience and proficiency playing at Newport News high school and the Apprentice school.

Since considerable trouble arose some years ago regarding trans­fer of athletes from junior colleges to colleges and universities, a, rule is in effect that men who move from a junior college to a college with­out graduation from the former, or without continuing in the same field of study, shall be ineligible for competition for a year.

Status of School Questioned So the case was primarily over whether the Apprentice school

should be declared a junior college. It is difficult to see how the school can ~be classed as such in the eyes of the conference when the credits obtained from it are not usable here. Students other than Sherman on the W&M campus have attended the school and failed to receive transfer credits from it.

Wray entered William and Mary to do work preparatory to en­tering dentistry school, with the ultimate purpose in mind of following the profession of his father, a Newport News dentist. He could get no work toward such an end at the Apprentice school, and came to William and Mary as his choice of three school to start his study.

Committee's Stand Is Shaky Regarding the Sherman case was a shaky one, and one gets the

impression that the lanky basketball player is being used as a guinea pig when Col. William Couper, head of the executive committee, says in his letter to McCray:

"We feel that it is necessary to have more rules about junior- col­leges, and the case in point is a good example of why we need a rule because it is one of the excellent schools of its kind in the country."

Any kind of eligibility rules should be flexible enough to allow a little understanding of the individual and the facts to enter into a final decision. If the letter of the law is to be followed, individuals will be hurt, and we believe that is not the purpose of the rules or of the enforcing body.

Professionalism is something a little different, but the same standards can apply.

Case of Vernon Morgan We are inclined to agree with Richmond attorney John J. Wicker,

Jr., that Vernon Morgan of Richmond is as eligible as Justice. Morgan, ruled ineligible earlier this fall, was banned for being signed to a professional baseball contract when he was 15.

Justice, on other hand, was cleared of all guilt resulting from the monkey-business with the National Pro League Philadelphia Eagles while he was at Bainbridge playing some very fine service football. We say quite, frankly that it is impossible for the average newspaper reader to make a clear judgment on the Justice case because the facts have never been brought clearly into the open.

In the account of the executive committee's meeting at Durham, the AP did not say that Justice had never signed a contract, but rather that he had never BEEN under contract to the Eagles. By cur­rent trends in eligiblity thinking,' if Justice signed a contract or receiv­ed money from a pro team, he is a pro regardless of whether the con­tract was validated.

Pros Should Lay Off The crux of the matter is that professional football teams, especial-

LOU HOITSMA, INDIAN END, is slated to start again at a flank post for William and Mary Saturday. Hoitsma is playing his second year as a regular on the Big Green squad and has another year of eligibility.

Hoitsma Flanks Indian Line; Started Out As Fine Center

Holding down the end position opposite Bob Steckroth is Lou Hoitsma, a junior at William and Mary and playing his second straight season as a regular flank-man. Lou is a 23 year-old junior from Paterson, N. J., where he at-

Terriers Lose To Redskins In 47-13 Rout

According to usually reliable sources, the William and Mary football team had one of its best showings of the season in Boston Saturday night, burying Boston University under a barrage of touchdowns to win, 47-13 at Fen­way park.

There was never much question about the outcome. after the In­dians started rolling in the second quarter and piled up a half time lead of 27-6.

Jack Cloud, shaken up in the North Carolina game, was high scorer for the Indians, crossing the goal three times to run his point total for the season to 42. Henry Blanc added two tallies, while Vito Ragazzo snagged a pass from Buddy Lex for another and Pat Haggerty treated the home folks to a six-yard scoring jaunt late in the game.

Blanc set up the first touchdown with a 34-yard run to the five just before Cloud drove over. Magd-ziak missed his placement attempt for the first time this year. Don Giles' tied the score for BU after a lateral had been recovered deep in Indian territory, but Hoitsma blocked the placement attempt.

With Bob Steckroth^ blocking for him, Henry Blanc ran 67 yards for a Tribal score in the second. Jack Cloud carried the .ball over from the 18 in five attempts for the third Indian tally of the game. Lex's pass to Ragazzo was good for 60 yards arid a marker in the same period. Magdziak got three conversions.

In the second half, Cloud scored one touchdown and Blanc another, while Pat Haggerty went over for the final Indian score. Magdziak hit two out of three placements. BU connected in the last few sec­onds with a desparate pass for a score.

tended Paterson Eastside high school.

Carrying 192 pounds on his six foot, two inch frame, Lou is a capable pass receiver and a consis­tently good blocker.

One of the most versatile men on the William and Mary football team, he was rated as one of the best prospects in Virginia as a cen­ter when he first. came to school here in 1942. He played center on the freshman squad that year.

He went to the University of Richmond with Marvin Bass, Don Ream, Surry Harrison, Herb Pop-linger and the host of others who trained as Navy V-12 students there. At Richmond he played regular center and was ione of the outstanding^ linemen in the state in 1943.

Returning to Williamsburg last fall, he moved back into his old center slot, but was converted to end when Tommy Thompson reap­peared on the Reservation. He was a starter most of last season, playing consistant football always.

With one more year of eligibility after this season, Lou may cause plenty more damage to W&M grid opponents before he is graduated.

Active in student work, he has held several offices, belongs to Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity, and was selected most Handsome man on the W&M campus by the women students last spring.

Varsity Club Requests Letters Not Be Worn

Ralph Sazio, president of the Varsity club, has announced that his organization requests students to refrain from wearing mono­grams from high schools or other colleges, and pins from high school societies and the like.

Such a practice has been frown­ed on in the past and detracts from some of the school spirit of the stu­dents.

Walker Brings Squad Hoping For Rebound

Coach Rube McCray's William and Mary Indians get a chance to jump back into the thick of the fight for the Southern conference championship when they entertain the strong Wake Forest Deacons at Gary field Saturday at 2:30 p. m.

Wake Forest will come to Wil­liamsburg boasting one of the best records in the South and will be battling to hand the Tribe another defeat and thereby virtually elimi­nate the Big Green team from any chance of winning the title.

Once again the game will be featured by two very well-match­ed teams playing in a game which could go either way and may be decided by the breaks.

The Demon Deacons field a burly line averaging a little over 212 pounds, with a 187 pound backfield. The overall team aver­age is 203, some eight or ten pounds heavier per man than the starting eleven Indians. The struggle between the great lines of both schools should be one of the best exhibitions of-line play ever seen here.

Bring Strong Guards Among the stars eoming-to Wil­

liamsburg with the Wake Forest team are Bob Leonetti, one of the best linemen in the nation accord­ing to reports, and Ed Royston, who go' to make up a top-flight guard combination for the Deacs. Nick Ognovich, 175 pound blocking back, was voted the best man in his line in" the Southern conference last year.

Leading backs include Tom Fet-zer, speedy tailback from Reids-ville, N. C. and George Pryor, 200 pound fullback who stepped into the shoes of Dick (Rock) Brinkley this. fall.

Affording plenty of opposition for the Carolina team will be ap­proximately the same line which has been starting for William and Mary all year, including Ail-American candidate Knox Ramsey and Bill Safko at guards, Ralph Sazio and Red Caughron at tackles, Bob Steckroth and Lou Hoitsma at ends and the rugged Tommy Thompson at center.

Backfield Uncertain The Indian backfield, which has

been subject to much change, will likely be filled by Wingback Henry Blanc and Blocking Back Tom Mikula, with the other two slots posing something of a- question. Buddy Lex and Jack Bruce will see action 'at tailback, Jack Cloud at full, and Stan Magdziak may alternate between the two.

William and Mary has never lost a game to Wake Forest, winning three and tying one in a four game series during the 1920's.

If the Tribe gets past this week's game, they should be able to finish off the rest of the season without a defeat, facing three state teams and Bowling Green of Ohio.

Buddy Lex and Jack Cloud played opposite ejach other in high school ^football, Lex performing for Hampton and Newport News high schools and Cloud holding down the fullback spot for Maury of Norfolk.

JF9 Terps Play In Hampton Friday

The William and Mary Jayvee football team will play its third game of the season Friday night, opposing Maryland's B team at Hampton.

Two other games will make up the rest of the schedule. On Nov. l l ^ W a k e Forest Jayvees will be played in a game at Edenton, N. C. The game is a feature on a special Armistice day program planned by the American Legion Post at Eden­ton. Richmond B's are the Tribe's opposition in their fifth and final game of the year. This game will be played at the state capitol, Nov. 21.

To date the Indians, coached by Al Thomas, have an even rec­ord, having defeated the Appren­tice school, 24-0, but losing to George Washington, 18-13, in a hard fought contest played in Washington.

WrayShermanRuledlneligible To Play On Basketball Team

Coach Barney Wilson's basket­ball team received a blow last week when it was learned that Wray Sherman, who entered Wil­liam and Mary as a freshman last summer after attending the New­port News Apprentice school, would be ineligible for competition because of the one-year residence rule.

The Apprentice school offers certain academic work in connec­tion with its trade-apprenticeship program, and the school is recog­nized as a junior college by the Virginia Board of Education. The issue at the meeting of the execu­tive committee of the conference; was concerned primarily with the status of the school.

The case of Sherman was con­sidered at the same meeting at which Charlie Justice was given a clean bill of health and allowed to continue to play for the University of North Carolina, but W&M Ath­letic Director Kube MoCray did not receive notice of the action until Wednesday.

Coach Wilson stated that he had been depending upon Sherman to help his team this winter, and that he would be greatly missed. Wray played on the 1942 state champion­ship Newport News high school team of which Charlie Sokol was captain, and he played some fine basketball for the Apprentice school before and after his tenure in the Navy.

While Sherman was declared ineligible for a year because he had attended the Newport News school, he had to enter William and Mary as a freshman because the college would accept no trans-

fer credits whatsoever. The ruling on the case was a

difficult one because the Newport News school is the only animal of its kind in existence. That is to say, it is the only one of the many trade schools in the country which carries a junior college rating. Had Sherman graduated from it, he would have had at least two years eligibility immediately.

of the Inter-fraternity league, Pi KA and' SAE remain undefeated and untied at the end of the sec­ond week of play. In the Inde­pendent league, the Chicken Coop Clippers remain undefeated and untied. The Flying Vets are un­defeated, but tied once.

The most hotly-contested game of the week was the free-scoring battle between the O.D. A's and the Flying Vets.

Trailing 18-6 at halftone, the Vets scored twice on long passes soon after the. second half got un­der way to tie the score at 18-18. Then with about four minutes re ­maining in the contest Ralph Bailey scored for the A''?. Tom Hill took a short pass for the extra point, making the score 25-18 in favor of the A's. The climax of the game came with but ten sec­onds left to play when Bass took-a short pass on the kick-off and ran 70 yards down the sidelines to score. The Vets passed for the extra point just as the game end­ed. Final score, 25-25.

WAKE FOREST BLOCKING BACK Nick Ognovicb, winner of a trophy as best blocking- back in the Southern Conference last sea­son, is expected to start for the Deacons against William and Mary at Cary field Saturday afternoon at 2:30.

SKIRTS IN SPORTS By Betty Coumbe

William and Mary may not have crack hockey or basketball teams this year, but there is one sport in which the Williamsburg co-eds can more than hold their own— SWIMMING!

Quality Apparent

Last week ^swimming intra­murals were held between sorori­ties and dormitories. Varsity swimmers from last year's team were allowed to compete because the varsity ruling was recently thrown out by the WAA: Fast times were recorded by co-eds who had not previously competed for the college. Should all these quali­fied swimmers decide to "give their all" for dear ole William and Mary, we would have one of the outstanding teams in the South, if not on the Eastern Seaboard.

Picking a mythical team based on the results turned in in the„ in­tramural meets is not a hard job. Pat Arnold and Jean Bevans could, with consistent practice, do the 20 yard freestyle in well under 11 seconds. Joyce Wilck is equally good in the 40-yard freestyle or backstroke while newcomer Do-

lores Ledfors might conceivably win a starting assignment in the freestyle behind Wilck.

Frances House, holder of several Virginia State titles, has no equal in the back stroke and is particu­larly valuable in the medley relay. Nancy Morton, Virginia Murphy, and Beverly Horner in the breast stroke and Betty Littlefield and Jane Oblender in the diving event reurid out our mythical team. Jackie Freer, Carol Achenbach, and Penny Allenbaugh did not compete in intramurals but would easily make the varsity.

Where's The Spirit From the above it looks as if

William and Mary will have an unbeatable team on paper; but, in actuality, if swimming goes the way of hockey and basketball the college will have second-rate ath­letes in the water while the out­standing-swimmers sit on the side­lines and cheer.

Already Dr. Sinclair has schedu­led a meet with Beaver College and there are more in the offing. It will be interesting to note just what happens when the first var­sity practice is called!

Tennis (Continued from Page,6)

The Winner of the B league is yet to be decided. Theta and K.D. still have to play off their match. The winners of this battle will play Alpha Chi. The loser will play against Jefferson for third position.

The third team final ratings are: Kappa Kappa Gamma 8, Chandler 4, and Chi Omega 3.

Kappa, Theta Vie In Swim Meet Tonight

Co-ed swimming intramurals have reached the half-way mark with four teams gaining final-round berths. Kappa Kappa Gamma and Kappa Alpha Theta will vie for the title tonight whila Chi Omega and Gamma Phi Beta will compete for third and fourth places in the final standings.

Pat Arnold, Pi Phi, turned in the best time in the 20-yard freestyle for League A with a time of 11.2 seconds. Jean Bevans, Theta, cov­ered the same distance in 11.4 sec­onds for League B honors. In the 40-yard freestyle Joyce Wilck, Tri Delt, and Dolores Ledfors, Barrett, were clocked in 26.6 and 27.7 sec­onds, respectively. Bevans again turned in a fast time being only one-tenth of a second behind Led­fors.

Three-Way Tie A three-way tie resulted in Lea­

gue B in the 40-yard breast stroke. Jane Seaton, and Betty Littlefield of Theta, and Charlotte Phillips of Gamma Phi, all churned the water in 43.3 seconds. Virginia Murphy, Chi Omega, was 1.5 sec­onds faster than her nearest rival, winning in League A in 40.5 sec­onds. Frances House, Barrett, and Arnold registered twin triumphs in the 40-yard racing back stroke with Wilck and Katherine Mc-Cready, Gamma Phi, not far be­hind them.

The Barrett team of Gay Rife, House, and Ledfors captured the 60-yard medley relay in the fast time of 45.5 seconds in League B. Jean Black, Nance Morton, and Susan Strong won for Kappa in League A. Mary Moore, Diana Wedell, Burnsie Weston, and Gin-ny Whittemore gave Alpha Chi Omega a first place in the 80-yard freestyle relay, while Oblender, Beatty, Murphy, and Gillen won the same event for Chi Omega.

Preliminaries • In the preliminary meets Betty

Littlefield amassed more points than any other diver for the sec­ond straight year. She will de­fend her title tonight against Ob­lender, Rienbrecht, and Simmons.

Team Standings to date are: League A Points Kappa Kappa Gamma 36 Chi Omega 32.5 Tri Delt .25 Pi Phi 16 League B Points Kappa Alpha Theta 402/3 Gamma Phi ....341/3 Barrett 33 Alpha Chi 25

Tarheels Remove Defiance Banner

Reprinted from the Tuesday, Oct. 21, issue of the Daily Tar Heel, the University of North Carolina student publication.

In one of the fraternity game rooms during this rush week there is a huge pennant 4 feet wide and 15 feet long which reads "Beat Carolina"; and the Kappa Alphas are proud of the thing.

What might seem like poor school,spirit is really a major ac­complishment. Among the tele­grams with which anonymous Wil­liam and Mary fans piqued such ardent Tar Heel fans as the DTH, President Frank Graham, and Charlie Justice last week were identical wires sent to most of the University fraternities defying anyone to take down a certain banner that would be hanging in Williamsburg as part of the pro­paganda for the big game Satur­day. The terms of the wires were about as hospitable as those in treaties with Hitler, and slander flowed like wine.

How was the challenge accepts ed? There was nothing at all to grabbing the' main feather from the W. and M. Indians' warbonnet, according to five modest K.A.'s and a friend, Eandolph "Hookus" Smith, Dick Dunlea, Hunter How­ard, Bill Creal, and Ken Bland, K.A.'s, and Emil Saleeby. After locating the supposed free-for-all bait in front of a sorority house, the conquering heroes calmly climbed a couple trees untied their loot, and walked away with it without bloodshed.

Strategy, they confess, did help. The two or three dozen William and Mary followers standing un­der those same trees became a bit inquisitive and asked what was go-

By Nicky Dillard "The life of a switchboard oper­

ator is never dull," vehemently stated said person; nor is the life of a FLAT HAT.reporter ever dull when assigned to write a story on such a topic.

Between calls, after recovering from the effects of the buzzing of the switchboard comparable to the background of the Inner Sanctum (or freshman tribunal) the repor­ter was able to pose a few ques­tions, which, however, were not answered until some centuries later after several students had gotten information and various calls had been put through.

It seems that under the new and unique-telephone system now in­stalled at the' College of William and Mary, business for the opera­tors has greatly increased, business and confusion. Under the new re­gime two house phones are now placed on each floor of the dorms, which may be reached through the college switchboard gratis. Now the interminable "Who's got a nickel?" has been replaced by "Who's got a map, a room assign­ment sheet," or in final despera­tion, "Does anybody know where Sally Smith lives?"

The correct precedure for call­ing Sally is to ask for Barrett, sec­ond "floor, west wing, IF you have these vital statistics, but after all, after straining your eyes to read the name on the back of a Fresh­man cap, one can hardly approach the Frosh with "—and where is your room?" "Even in these mod­ern times, people do seem to mis-intrepret such remarks, and you might find yourself ready to pass Fine Arts after a thorough study of etchings!

No one ever seems to know where he (or she, it is told that more girls call boys than vice-versa) is calling. "They expect us to be mind readers," the opera­tor moaned. "Yesterday a boy calling Barrett asked for it first in French, not even good French, then in Spanish and lastly, told

that the line was busy, in German. Ten minutes later he tried in English—he got his call." Not only would one have to be a mind rea­der and linguist, it would also seem necessary to be an octopus judging from the number of calls that come at once.

The rush hour is between 6:30 and 8 p. m. while dates are being arranged and collected. There is then a lull in which the operator can twiddle her thumbs. "Some night I'm going to ring every phone at once, just for excite­ment," she confessed. At 10:55 p. m. there is a rush period, ex­plained by the fact that people realizing the switchboard closes at 11:00, decide they had better put in a call quickly.

One of the necessary skills is locating which phone" is ringing. However, in the event that you do pick up the Wrong phone the ac­cepted procedure, according to re­ports from the operators, is to ask "And whose wife are you?". The "Shoot, it's your.nickel" routine is out of vogue now with the de­parture of universal pay phones. Another trick is to call one's own number, but the operator an­nounces that it's amazing how few people in the category understand why the line is always busy'.

"Lots of friendly fellows," relat­ed Mary Helen Clowes, one of the operators, "pick up the phone and just giggle. Obviously they just

Women To Take Proficiency Tests

Proficiency tests in team sports and dance will be offered to freshmen women by the physical education department during the first semester with the deadline for applications set for Saturday, Nov. 1.'

In former years, tests of this type were offered only in swim­ming. Women who passed this test were exempt from the re ­quired swimming course and were allowed one elective in fulfilling their physical education require­ments. As a result of a survey conducted by' the physical educa­tion department last year, it was decided to offer similar tests in all phases of the physical education program,

"Students who wish to take tests in team s^ports should choose two team sports which they plan to use for testing purposes and sign up on the bulletin board outside Jef­ferson or in the physical education office by Nov. 1," declared Dr. Caroline Sinclair, head of the de­partment. "Students interested in dance tests should also sign up for them by that time."

Team sport proficiency tests will be given during the week of Nov. 10 through 15, with the time and place of the tests to be arranged by Martha E. Barksdale and Marion D. Reeder of the depart­ment. • . • •'

Runners Trounce UR Team, 23-32

The Tribe cross-country team got on the victory trail last week by easily defeating the University of Richmond, 23-32, over a long three-and-a-half mile track there.

Clyde Baker, freshman flash from New York, pulled away from Jimmy Sease, Richmond star, with a half mile to go to annex his sec­ond straight victory. Bob Carter and Bob Hedrnan tied for third in the Indian win. Carter was ham­pered through the whole race by a nail in the sole of his shoe; the nail had come through to his foot and at the end of the race his track shoe was soaked in blood.

Finishing out the top five posi­tions for the Braves were Bob Mc-Peek who finished seventh, a notch higher than he ended up against Randolph-Macon, and freshman Hugh DeSampa.

Weezie Disproves Clai m

Entirely Too Normal To Be Interesting7

By Nicky Dillard

"This would.be so much better if I had done something exciting like being born in Uruguay, but I wasn't, I was born in Fort Wayne, Ind. I'm just too normal to be in­teresting," Mary Louise ' McNabb lamented.

Weezie, the, only flame by which she is known to most people, is chairman of Women's Honor coun­cil, a member of Mortar Board and corresponding secretary of Kappa Alpha Theta. She served as vice-president of the German club and as social chairman of the YWCA, 'was a member of the chorus and by virtue of her 500 participation points became a member of the Monogram club, by "the skin of my teeth."

"Honor council work is very in­teresting," she said. "I have learned a lot about people, but I was scared to death on the first case. The Honor council is more important than most p e o p l e realize. So few people, fortunate­ly, come in contact with offenses that they fail to know its work­ings." Weezie said that she is

finally getting used to rooming by herself, a penalty she has to pay for being chairman.

Claiming no outstanding hobby, Weezie said, however, that she

loves antiques and has a "small collection of demi-tasse cups. She enjoys - browsing through antique shops and would collect old pieces "if they were not so terrifically expensive." Concerning writing, Weezie declared that- she just couldn't. Always on the circula­tion staff of' publications, she was once talked into writing a feature story on insomnia.: She spent days writing it and wore herself into the described state. "It was published" she said, "but that is my one claim to literary fame. I could never write another thing that was funny."

"I don't know what I'll do after graduation, I may teach," Weezie sajd, not . very enthusiastically. "I'd like to do something in per­sonnel work, I like to work with people. As a history major, Weezie acknowledged that fresh­man history was a bit discourag­ing. • .

The most interesting t h i n g Weezie. has done, she claims, was going to Mexico last summer with several other girls". They- studied at the University of Mexico and lived with-a Mexican family. "We had a wonderful time," she said, "but we didn't know very much Spanish. Another difficulty was the eating habits of the Mexicans. They serve a.seven-course dinner in the afternoon and then nothing else. We had to go out and fill up on tamales; we certainly missed American food."

Sjhe related that the most fun they had was at the market places on Sundays. "Mexicans would sell anything, even the shirts off their backs, if they could." She related that one of the funniest experi-, ences she had was when she made a side remark in English doubting the authenticity of the wares of an old Mexican woman and was met by "This is the real McCoy," spoken emphatically with a strong Mexican accent.

"Walking in Mexico, is. a dan­gerous occupation" Weezie ex­plained. "Whoever honks first has the right of way and crossing the wide streets is indeed a feat." Weezie Jaughted, "This is a lot about Mexico.- My family won't even let me mention the word since they have heard so much about my trip."

V A /announces

New Regulations The Veteran's Administration

has announced new regulations re ­garding the transfer of a veteran from a small college to a larger one and the increase in subsistence payment with the acquisition of dependents.

Since VA must approve any change of institution, a trainee's advance declaration of intent to transfer will facilitate VA's per­mission.

Veterans who have acquired de­pendents should notify the VA im­mediately, since the payments in­crease only as of the date notified.

Failure to return subsistence al­lowance overpayments will result in the deduction of amounts owed from benefits of unemployment if such benefits are desired by a vet­eran.

For Conference Photographs and material illus­

trating the use of Williamsburg as a "living laboratory" of early American history have been for­warded to Mexico City for inclu­sion in the exhibit being prepared for the second United Nations Edu­cational, Scientific and Cultural Organization general conference there next month. •

The exhibit in Mexico City will include materials from most of the member nations under the gen r eral title of "The Role of Museums in Popular Education." A number of American museums and educa­tional institutions have contributed m a t e r i a l covering educational work with children, mobile mu­seums, educational work for adults and scientific work.

In addition to its wide interest as .a significant national shrine and a picturesque recreation of Col­onial days, Williamsburg, through its Rockefeller-financed restora­tion, has become a virtual labora­tory <of early American history for school children and advanced stu­dents.

Before we* could get on with the idiosyncrasies of William and Mary phoners, a girl wandered to the switchboard and asked "Have you seen my man?" Noting our baffled expression she added, "I guess you don't know him, do you?" Simultaneously one boy on a house phone, confronted with number please, emitted a bewil­dered "O-H-H." This combined switchboard and information desk is just too much. I think' I'll re­tire to some place comparatively quiet and peaceful, like Grand Central Station.

shed a few years' maturity to play the two children, Henry and Gladys, while William Hux waxes Brooklynese as the singing tele­graph boy. Mary Gershank rounds out the list of featured players in the 31-character play, as the see-all, know-all fortune teller.

Unusual Settings Mr. Wilder's unusual play calls

for unusual settings. Mr. Roger Sherman, designer for the William and Mary Theatre, had to maneu­ver extensively to cope with the limitations of the Phi Bete stage. His plans were executed by Mr. Albert E. Haak, newly acquired technical director, and former stage manager of the Ernie Pyle .theatre in Tokyo. Sherman, Haak, and a student stagecrew, headed by Wilford Leach, worked for four weeks on sets, lights, and the other phases of production.

Miss Althea Hunt, now in her 21st year as director of the col­lege theatre, "put the show t c bed" with last-minute polishing at the final dress-rehearsal tonight. Meanwhile she held try-outs for the next play, Noel Coward's "Blithe Spirit," which will go in­to rehearsal soon after the last curtain calls of "Skin" on Thurs­day night.

Complete Cast The complete cast of the comedy

includes Kenneth McGinn, Susan Strong, Rux Birnie, William Nor-gren, June Lochenour, Jean Cutler, Allen Keys, Richard Uviller, Stan­ley Peimer, Christian Moe, Kyle McGinnis, Frances Thatcher, Eli­zabeth Bartlett, William Fox, and Ronald King.
