MayorThen hey for boot and horse, lad,And o’er the world away—Young blood must have its course, lad,And every dog its day.The time of the year has come whenthe flame of life is flickering low inthis dead soldier’s breast. While allthe rest of the world buzzes around inthe snow (or rain, as it happens to beat this writing) buying Christmaspresents, getting kissed under the mis¬tletoe, handshaking, and beaming gen¬erally with the Yuletide spirit, depres¬sion has come into my life and buriedme under. To begin with, I am thesorriest story, scholastically, ever told.I have dropped one course, and ambidding fair to go swaggering downthe road to hell in the other two. Incase of fire along curricular lines, Ishall find myself, unless the Recorder’soffice fails to find me first, ineligibleto write my column. A situation whichwould settle for once and all the ques¬tion of whether or not anyone actuallyreads it. And then there comes on thehorizon The Daily Maroon in all itspower and glory. On this same Fri¬day morning we are publishing theChristmas issue—fifty-two pages. I amone man who has always opposedChristmas Issues—of anything. 1 don’tbelieve there is any call for them, inthe first place, and, what is more, theymean work for me, and I simply donot like to work. For a week now Ihave been pounding, hoof and mouth,day and night, doing my humble sharein lambing together the paper, andthere is no rest for this much of thewicked until the whole thing is gotover with. All in all, it is simply toomuch for me. Things are piling up andmenacing me. Under the spell of ter¬ror I am more useless than ever, andI don’t make any headway at all. Itwon’t be long now before the wholeworld tumbles down on me like anavalanche, and no one will ever hearof me again, just as no one has everheard of me before.In the face of the above conditions,you can well imagine that I should egg |around for some avenue of escape. Ihave. It appears in the form of acotton-boat, sailing any day now forSpain or Cape Hope or Australia orwherever it is that cotton boats sail to—I don’t care much. I happened toblow in a southerly direction last Au¬gust, and I ran out of money, or intomoney, or something, in a placed call¬ed Selma, Alabama. In Selma, Ala¬bama, I met up with a staid old ladywho is secretary to a bird wdio is thebiggest cotton shipper in the wholeworld. And he owns a steamboat, ora litter of steamboats, or knows aman who does. I am sort of mistyabout the details, but the long andshort of it is that all I have to do isput the cotton to sleep for a couple ofweeks, and then come into sight of aland where it is always spring after¬noon, with rose-bowers and the echoesof violas and a man to mix me thingsand another one to tell me what a goodguy I am.“Of course,” I told myself, “I shallhave to go alone, for I am the onlyvictim of malcontent around here. Allthe rest of the gang are sleek andsmug, what with their Phoenix, andtheir Maroon, and their Blackfriars,and their lights of love, and their ad¬ministrative jobs. But I—I have noth¬ing and no one, and nothing and noone has or wants me. I shall pack myduffle bag and be off.” I did mentionmy plans, just casually, to the boysone day, and lo! I have all the betterbloods of the campus in my company.It’s the low time of the year for all ofus, I guess. So if we can get ourselvesbooted out of school, we’ll be off—withyour blessing".. ADJUDGE ‘CAESARAND CLEOPATRA'GREAT SUCCESSMetzel, Mason and KerrStar in DramaticProduction Compton ReceivedPhysics Award InSweden Dec. 10By Charles H. GoodIn performing “Caesar and Cleo¬patra” Friday evening before a fullhouse the Dramatic association “doneitself proud” and established a highpoint in acting, directing and choice ofa play which will not easily be at¬tained again. The production was notperfect, nor was it professional, but itwas of a quality seldom seen and of¬ten desired on the campus.Eleanor Metzel made the outstand¬ing success of the evening in the roleof Ftatateeta. Her part, like that ofMaxwell Mason, the Britannus, wasone which almost acted itself, but shedeserves considerable credit for herconsistency of characterization.Kerr Appears As CaesarHadley Kerr, in the former half ofthe name part, made an effort to dojustice to the most difficult role inthe play, and almost succeeded. Thathe did not succeed entirely can scarce¬ly be held against him for’ Caesar isdifficult at best, and for a young actor,almost impossible.Cleopatra as seen by Marion Mc¬Cann was satisfactory but scarcelyscintillating. Some of her best sceneswere opposite John Gerhart as Apol-lodorus.Acting Generally GoodThe actors generally came up to thehigh standard set by the scenery,which was interesting without beingornate. Strangely enough the sceneshifters almost lived up to their an¬nounced speed, and the audience wasnot bored with the usual half-hourwaits between scenes. And, wondersof wonders, the third-act derrick work¬ed to perfection.Without casting any aspersions onthe authorities of Haskell and Classics,who were to have been consulted onthe costumes, one imagines, from thebrevity of the apparel, that they musthave been consulted most sparingly.The stage direction was good, butprobably not always followed, for awk¬ward groupings resulted in the morepopulous acts.UNIVERSITY HASLARGE NUMBEROF FAMOUS MENThe University is second only toHarvard University in the number of“distinguished” scientists, according toan advance report on the statisticscompiled for the Biographical Surveyof American Men of Science. Of the1,176 men listed as outstanding theUniversity has 53, and Harvard has84.Of the 601 men recently added tothe “distinguished” list, the Univer¬sity furnished more holders of Ph. D.than any other institution. After theUniversity come Harvard and JohnsHopkins Universities. The Universitygraduated more Doctors of Philosophyin science than any other universityin the country. The four highest, withthe numbers of degrees awarded, are,University of Chicago, 78; Wisconsin,53; Johns Hopkins, 50; Columbia, 45.COULTER DISCUSSESWORK ON MUTATIONS“Recent Work on Mutation” wasthe topic discussed by Dr. Coulter ofthe Botany department before theBotany club yesterday afternoon.Dr. Coulter centered his talk aroundthe recent researches of Dr. Moeller ofthe University of Texas in the hasten¬ing of mutation by external stimuli. Inthese experiments Dr. Moeller hasdone what was before considered im¬possible by most biologists.He has brought about an increase inmutation rate by application of theX-ray. In the presence of the king of Swe¬den, crown prince, and other notables,Professor Arthur H. ( ompton of thePhysics department of the Universityreceived the Nobel prize December 10in Stockholm for his discovery thatund^r certain conditions the radiationof light may be of a corpuscular na¬ture as well as undulatory.The award of $32,478 for distin¬guished work in physics during theyear was divided between ProfessorCompton and Dr. C. T. R. Wilson ofCambridge univerjity, England, whosemethod of making observable the in¬finitesimal particles emitted in the pro¬cess of radio-activity Dr. Comptonused.Delivers LectureProfessor Compton delivered a tech¬nical lecture on “X-Rays as a Branchof Optics” before the assembled scien¬tists and surveyed not only his discov¬ery of the similarity of x-rays to lightand the changing of their wave-lengthswhen they are scattered, but also thestudies which preceded it.Accompanied by his wife and othermembers of his family, Dr. Comptonplanned to leave at the end of theceremonies for Hamburg, Paris, andthe United States. Upon his returnhe will continue his reaserch on theradiation of light.J.

The actual climb is not only anunprecedented hardship, but until 1913it was hardly possible to approach thebase of the mountain because of thehostility of the Tibetans. One of theearliest attempts of white men toreach the top was made in 1913’.Two men lost their lives in the mostrecent expedition, of which Mr. Odellwas a member, in the spring of 1924.Two members of the party reached aheight of 28,000 feet without the useof oxygen, advancing only eighty feetan hour in the latter part of the climb.Odell as oxygen officer of the party,held an important position because ofthe rarity of the air at the high altitudeattained. A final effort to reach thepeak was led by George Leigh-Mal-lory and Andrew Irvine who were lastseen within 600 feet of the summit, butthen disappeared from sight forever.UNIVERSITY MENSPEAK TO PREPSCHOOL GROUPSC.

Alumnus “TunesIn”on UniversityChoir in FloridaMusic broadcast by the Universitychoir, through station WLS., was re¬ceived last week in St. Petersburg,Florida, by a former student of theUniversity. Mr. Roy B. Nelson ex¬presses his appreciation of the programin the following letter to Mack Evans,the director of the choir.“Let me express to you and theChoir my delight in hearing last eve¬ning your offering of Russian music,broadcast from station WLS, and re¬ceived here in my own home clearly.“My pleasure was derived from thecaptivating nature of the music, its ex¬cellent rendition and its clear receptionhere; besides all that, from the factthat the music came from my AlmaMater, where I was a student andteacher for twenty years. After a ten-year absence from the campus whereI lived so long, you may imagine howsplendid it was to receive such a win¬some message, last evening.”Choir To Cing At BondTomorrow at 7 the choir will givea program of Christmas music and theceremony of The Candle-Lighting, inJoseph Bond chapel. The choir willbe assisted by Professor Bertram Grif¬fith Nelson, reading the Christmasgospels, and by Maude Bouslough, so¬prano.Annual Sets NewPicture DeadlineDue to unavoidable difficulties, thedeadline on pictures of clubs, fraternit¬ies, and seniors-for the Cap and Gownhas been extended to January 1. Thiswas found necessary to give the strag¬glers and those who were unable toget theirs taken for valid reasons alast chance.Since there was a rush at the Gib¬son Studios caused by Christmas, andbecause of the fact that many peoplewaited until the last day to go down,the studios were unable to take care ofeverybody.“For these reasons, and because itwill not inconvenience the staff to agreat degree,” stated George Reed, edi¬tor of the Cap and Gown, “we havedecided it is only fair to give thesepeople another chance.”“This will be the absolute limit forall pictures and no further extensionwill be allowed,” continued Reed.Reed wishes to remind the studentsthat the price of the Cap and Gownwill be raised from $4 to $4.50 in thewinter quarter.Federation to HoldChristmas Sing atIda Noyes TonightThe Federation of University Wom¬en will hold their annual ChristmasSing this evening at 7 in the loungeof Ida Noyes hall.

One Sophomore Honor Society.THE RHODES SCHOLARSHIPS»For the second time in as many months the University hascome into the limelight as an international prize winners, and thistime its prize is a double rather than a single one. Rhodes Scholar¬ships are not given for the same reason that Nobel Prizes areawarded: one represents the ideal American student, and theother is the result of concentrated and highly specialized scientificactivities. But both represent high points in scholastic achieve¬ments, and each is in its way the highest honor that a student,whether a lowly undergraduate or an advanced research scholar,can obtain.It is seldom that one institution is honored by having twoof its students receive a Rhodes Scholarship simultaneously, in¬deed, in the present instance this was only possible because one ofthe recipients was chosen from another district than that in whichthe University is located. Nevertheless the bare fact that therewere two from the University is not without significance. Wehave become so used to bemoaning the fact that our school is notthe most “collegiate” in spirit of the institutions of higher learn¬ing in the country, that its merits as a place of real education anda mother of prize winners have come to be regarded almost nega¬tively. It is a school which fulfills the primary function of suchan institution to the last degree. Nor in fulfilling that primaryfunction does it disregard those which, while nominally secondary,oftentimes assume primary importance; the knowledge of one’sfellow men, and a contributory ability in athletics.THE FARCE HEROICDecent efforts to enforce the law have our honest support.This raucous world needs such efforts. And justice, if it is tobe perfect, must fall upon all men without discrimination.But imperfect justice can ill afford to be inhuman. Untilour government has accomplished some of the more obvious pur¬poses of a law, it ought to walk respectfully among the more deli¬cate questions of enforcement.The Volstead Act was designed to protect society against therecklessness and the waste of time and energy to which alcoholleads the members of society. Thus far the Act has not been wellenough enforced to give society this protection. Much of the drink¬ing that led to the greatest waste and the greatest danger has noteven been attackd by our offiers. Notorious speak-easies are ig¬nored.When the officers of the law, thus indifferent to the heart ofthe problem, spend their time and our money in elaborate andmuch-advertised raids upon gentler violators, their work smacksof self-righteousness. It ill becomes officers whose human weak¬nesses are so apparent, to choose as one of their first victims aplace whose only vice is its opportunity for escape from a worldthat is too business-like for human men.What this country needs is a decent effort to enforce the law.

Ater pointing outsome of the mistakes committedagainst Monmouth ast Saturday night.Coach Norgren sent his first teamthrough a stiff offensive drill. Some ofthe reserves broke into the regularlineup yesterday and participated inthe long workout.Coach Norgren expressed satisfac¬tion' over the strong defense that theMaroons exhibited against Monmouth.In the second half, Chicago suffereda noticeable letdown, with the resultthat the small downstate school camefrom behind and tied the score at 28all. Captain Hoerger’s basket put theMaroons in the lead in the overtimeperiod. Their close guarding held Mon¬mouth at bay in the extra period, whilethey were ringing up three morepoints.The team as a whole showed,up wellin the opening tilt, although the playin spots was none too good. Gist’s eag¬le eye kept the Maroons in the runningduring the first half. Four personalsput him out in the second half, andthe team showed they missed him.Coach Norgren’s still is looking fora center. This weak link in the Chi¬cago offense was quite apparent againstMonmouth's rangy center. On practi¬cally every tipoff Monmouth gainedthe ball. Freeman fought hard for an opening game, but he was at a disad¬vantage against the lanky opposingcenter.With one game tucked away, theMaroons are eyeing their coming con¬tests apprehensively. Every Big Tenteam with the exception of Minnesotacame through in flying shape last Sat¬urday. Chicago cracks open the con¬ference schedule with one of the bestteams in the circut, Indiana, so thatthey will need the experience of everyone of their practice tilts in order tobe in prime shape for the Hoosiers.Friday’s encounter with the Pitts¬burg Panthers is looked upon as a de¬cisive test for the Maroons. The Smo¬ky City outfit trimmed Michigan lastyear with ease, and the Wolverines,finished on top of the Big Ten heap.The Chicago mentor believes that Fri¬day’s tilt will give him an opportun¬ity to measure the ability of his squad.The easterners have a husky and ran¬gy bunch of players this year and areconsidered a match for any team onthe hardwood floor.J.

Science aids Nature to hesure hy blending the tobaccos for subtlesmoothness and mildness. One way todescribe Camels is just to say, “They aregood!”Somehow, news of Camel has got around. Each smoker telling the other, we suppose.At any rate, it’s first—in popularity as wellas quality. It has beaten every record evermade by a smoke. Modern smokers havelifted it to a new world leadership.Camels request a place in your apprecia¬tion. Try them upon every test known.You’ll find them always loyal to your high¬est standard.“Have a Camel!** ©1927K. J. REYNOLDS TOBACCO COMPANY, WINSTON-SALEM, N.
