ANNOUNCE W-I CONFERENCE SPLITPep Meeting

Starts 1927

HomecomingBeloit Game and Parade To­

morrow ; Dance in Evening

By Jack Rudolph

After the usual whirlwind of com­

mittee meetings, telephone calls, and

purchases, the plans for the 1927

Homecoming have been completed,

and the celebration, the biggest of its kind to be held at Lawrence, is slowly

getting under way. The first event

on the program, a pep meeting in the

chapel, was conducted this morning, and everything points to a high water mark in enthusiasm.

General chairmen: Lloyd Mills,

Marielle Edens.Publicity: Ray Richards, chair­

man; Jack Walters, Mary Greg­

ory, Helen Upham.Grounds and tickets: Alois Fischl

and Donald Babcoek.Appropriations: Douglas Hyde,

Gladys Rvdeen, Carl Thompson.House decorating: Burton Behling,

chairman; Ernest Enquist, Mari­an Worthing.

Parade: William Verhage, chair­

man; Jeanette Jones, Alex Hunt­er.

Pep Meeting and Frolic: Kenneth Dean and assistant cheerleaders,Mary Morton, Marjorie Lockard, Amy Howser.

Alumni: Helen Kneebone, chair­man; Leora Calkins, Miriam

Russell, Donald Hyde.

“ Blondy” Maesch’s music, plus

Jimmie Archie’s familiar tenor voice furnished the music for the meeting,

while yells were led by Kenneth Dean and his corps of cheerleaders.

This afternoon the Appleton Boost­ers’ club, ritzy for the Knothole gang,

will hold a pep meeting in the chapel at four o ’clock. The youngsters have

Homecoming Parade To Be Graced By

A ll College Band

Everybody on the old band wagon!

And Saturday morning in the Home­

coming parade as Mr. Moore swings his baton, wild toots from the cornet, piercing squeaks of the flute with

answering gurgles on the clarinets,

wails of the saxophones and measured beats of a big brass drum, will an­

nounce to the world that Lawrence has a band and that i t ’s “ on the old

band wagon.’ ’

The hearts and feet of loyal Law- rentiana will beat time to its music with unusual enthusiasm, since this will mark the first appearance of a

Lawrence band in several years, last year’s attempt to organize one having met with little success. Those who gave up chewing gum and “ True Story” to give money to help the

cause need worry about those shekels no more, nor continue to feel that their sacrifice was in vain.

It is especially fortunate that the

band materialized this year, for now

the “ singing Vikings’ ’ will not lack

au accompaniment as they wax tune­ful on “ After the Ball is Over” . And

the body of freshmen, bright and re­splendent in their garb of green, wrill be kept in step, as they march along,

* by a lively martial tune.A number of the Lawrence songs

are being arranged for the band and these will be played throughout the game.

Advance Ticket Sale For ‘The Silver Cord’ To Open This Week

Theatre Guild Production To Be Pre­

sented at Chapel on De­

cember 14

Advance sale of tickets for “ The

Silver Cord” , a three act comedy to be staged in the Lawrence Memorial chapel by the Theatre Guild Reper­tory company of New York on De­cember 14, is now open. Tickets may be procured from Dan Hardt at the college office.

For the first time'in its history, the Guild, one of the foremost dramatie

organizations of the country, is ex­tending its activities by sending out a touring company. They are now ap­

pearing at the Studebaker theatre,

Chicago, where enthutiastic audiences fill the theatre nightly.

Alexander Woolcott, dramatic critic of the New York World says of the

Guild, “ If it were decreed that for

five years I would have to confine my playgoing to one theatre but that I myself could name the theatre from

among all those now in America or

the British Empire, I would unhesi­tatingly choose whatever playhouse

was being made the home of the

Theatre Guild.”

Successful Comedy

Sidney Howard’s comedy “ The Sil­

ver Cord” , which is to be produced in Appleton, is one of the Guild’s big­gest successes. Gabriel of The Sun says, “ It is a play for the mature;

the unafraid; and to them it guaran­tees an evening of excitive truths and rare dramatic instinet. ”

Florence Eldridge, who has played leads in such w-ell-known plays as

“ Six Characters in Search of an Au­thor” and “ Ambush” , and George

Gaul, who played the lead in the past

seasons in “ Seventh Heaven” , will

play the leading roles. They will be

supported by Molly Pearson, Erskine

Sanford, Hortense Alden, Frederic

March, Lawrence Cecil, Dorothy Fletcher and Leonard Loan, names fa­

miliar to theatregoers everywhere.

Enthusiastic receptions and favor­

able publicity accorded the Guild

players in New York and Chicago

auger well for the success of their

Appleton appearance.

with the club as violin soloist, while Everett Roudebush is to be accom­

panist for the second successive year.

No manager has been appointed as yet.

Conference Is Announced

Henry M. Wriston

Cultivate Purpose, Is Message Of Upshaw

“ Have a purpose linked to God and you will come out a winner” was the

keynote of a chapel talk given Thurs­day by Mr. William Upshaw, former

congressman from Georgia, who has been lecturing throughout the state

under the auspices of the Anti-Saloon League. Mr. Upshaw whose motto is

“ Let nothing discourage you, never give up” has exemplified these words by his own life, for he was an invalid

*¥or seven years and did not enter col­lege until he was 31.

Lack of purpose has characterized most of the college students with whom he has come in contact and he

does not believe that ten out of a hundred have a worthy ambition. He

urged the students to be unaffected, for a “ genuine love of the genuine is characteristic of the winner, and, like

counterfeit money, if you are not genuine, you will not pass.”

He touched briefly upon the menace of bootlegging, saying that “ One who patronizes a bootlegger is an enemy of

the country” and that the educated person who does it has no ideals.

He quoted from “ My Vision” , a

poem which he wrote when he attend­

ed Mercer University in Georgia, and which is on the dedication page of

“ Clarion Calls from Capitol Hills” a collection of his speeches given before

the House of Representatives. He has

presented an autographed copy of the book to the college library.

Josephine Work, ’31, has been a

patient at the infirmary the past week

due to injuries received while horse­back riding last Wednesday.

PROCLAMATION

To the Students and Faculty of

Lawrence College:

Homecoming has become a

tradition worthy of its name.

Its values have been recognized

by undergraduates, and faculty,

and alumni.

Saturday, October 29, having

been officially designated as the

date for the annual celebration,

that day is set apart as a holi­

day at our college.

Henry M. Wriston.

To the Citizens of Appleton:

Lawrence College has desig­

nated October 28 and 29 as

Homecoming days. These are

days when all graduates and

students that have been affili­

ated w ith Lawrence college

make a special effort to return

and visit their Alma. Mater.

In order to cooperate w ith the

college in making this a suc­

cess, and have the visitors carry

away a kindly feeling for Ap­

pleton, I am asking the mer­

chants and manufacturers and

a ll citizens to do every thing

possible to make these two days

enjoyable for a ll visitors, and am asking that all buildings

display decorations suitable for

the occasion.

Interest of College Will Be Cen­tered In Midwest

League

After being a member of the league

since its organization, Lawrence has

withdrawn from the Wisconsin-lllinois athletic conference. This decision was reached at a meeting of the athletic

Board of Control Wednesday after­noon. At the same time, Ripon col­lege, another charter member of the

conference, has announced its with­drawal. This will leave the league with three team**, C’arroll, Northwest ern, and Lake Forest, and virtually means the breakup of the “ Little Five” after many years of activity.

Both colleges have announced their reason for dropping out as a measure

to center interest in the Midwest con­

ference, composed of Wisconsin and Illinois colleges, of which both Ripon and Lawrence are members. As a member of both the W-I league and

the Midwest wheel, Lawrence is

forced to divide the interest of the schedule, and is unable to make par­ticipation in the Midwest conference worth while. By playiug four Wis

consin-lllinois games, the Blue and White has been unable to play enough

games with Midwest opponents to be considered in line for the champion­ship. Ripon has withdrawn for the •ame reason.

The Wisconsin -Illinois conference,* or as it is called, the “ Little Five” , was organized almost twenty years

ago. At that time Lawrence, Beloit, Ripon, Carroll, and Northwestern col­leges were members, and it was known as the Wisconsin Intercollegiate Ath­

letic Association, its members annual

ly deciding the state collegiate title among themselves.

In 1924, Beloit college withdrew from membership, and the roll was

cut to four teams, although the Gold

and Blue have continued to meet con­ference members each season. These four colleges functioned through two

seasons, and last season Lake Forest

was admitted to membership, the

name being changed to the Wisconsin- lllinois conference. In the last six­

teen years Lawrence has captured ten championships of the conference.

Movies and Radio W ill Perpetuate Homecoming Dance

The great homecoming dance will

be no footprint in the sands of time,

but rather the pedal impression of a

giant centipede. Movies will perpetu­ate the daters, who, from the vantage point of a theater seat and another date, will be able to see their antics

and each other on the screen. While they dance to the til-tillating rvthm of the Lyric Ramblers, obtained for the occasion from the Wisconsin Roof

Gardens, Milwaukee, the folks at home can listen in on their radios and

hear the music to which their children “ step.”

Elaborate decorations by the Novel­

ty Decorating Company of Appleton, will transform the gymnasium into a

true De Mille version of a college

prom, and special features of musical

numbers and vaudeville will inject some true “ big time” atmosphere in­to the picture.

WTith the ultra-modern forces of the

movies, the radio, the roof garden

orchestra, and highly trained decora tors, the homecoming dance promises

to be like a dish of caviar on the pork and gravy menu of college life.

Italian Trip

Completed By

Ellen TuttonLawrence Good Will Student

Tells Of Italian Country Life

“ Tut'

Two (lavs in the great grape vine­

yards picking and eating grapes with

the I t a l i a n

peasants, jab­

bering and try­ing to under­

stand Italian, and h e lp in g the l i t t l e

bambini climb

the ladders to

eut off the largest bunches

which were al­

most too heavy fo r them to

hold in their hands has been a very happy experience. Country life is quite

different from that in America. They use lovely white oxen to draw their

carts, the women work right along with the men, they wash the clothes on stone washboards in the river, all

go barefoot, the chickens and birds

are friendly kitchen company, and the

Hies are quite at home everywhere. One is conscious all of the time that

these people are very happy and one is welcome to share whatever they have.

At tht* end of each day they gave us all tin* grapes we could carry home even though by that time I was hard­

ly able to “ look one in the face” .

Wine in the making has killed all desire which I might have had for it in the glass. I even threw in a few*

hugs myself for good measure.Country Life

This lovely country life on the banks of the Arno where the autumn

crocuses are blooming, where the olive

and cypress trees cover the little

mountains, where the tiig and peach

trees are drooping with fruit, where “ le bon soleil” makes the days like those of June back home all seems a part of another existence from that

lived in the grand old Certosa on the high mountain overlooking it all

where a silent order of monks send up

their prayers every night from 12:00

to 2:00 o’clock, where they never speak to each other exeept on feast

days and Sundays, and where each

lives in the humblest cell with only a

table, a chair, a bed, and a fresco of the Christ on the wall. All this gave

me much to think about as we climbed

up among the crocuses to eat our lunch

after using the family wash basin—

the river. As we sat down the little lizzards dashed in every direction, and although it gave me a shiver or

two at first, I soon learned that they

were much more afraid of me than I

was of them.Explains Purpose

It w’as difficult to leave Geneva

where I had made friends and where I had been so very happy, where I could understand and was able to

make myself understood, and where

the people seemed to be kindness it­

self. On my last Sunday there I was invited to dine at the home of the President of the Geneva School of In­ternational studies. This gave me an opportunity to explain more in detail

just how I happened to be there this summer. They were very much in­

terested in the step taken by Law­rence College and they are very anxi­

ous that a student be sent to them

next year. This year I was the only student from Wisconsin and one of three from the whole Middle West. The school seems immensely worth

while to me and'offers the best that can be found in the way of orienta tion for the foreigner. Geneva is

enough Americanized to furnish a gradual step into European customs

for the American who is anxious to

enter into those customs wholeheart­

edly. There was some dissatisfaction in the school this year with the stu­dents from America who apparently came for a summer’s outing, who at

tended classes at their leisure, who made no effort to enter into t)ie spirit of the school, and who became more

Americanized than when in America.League of Nations

The work for the summer closed

with two weeks on the League of Na­

tions during w’hieh time we were per­mitted to attend many of the as­

semblies. The sight of that Assembly

opens fields of thought that could keep one busy for a life time, and to hear Lord Chamberlain try to defend the English Navy in the face of the great

German, Dr. Stresemann, opened a field of thought for another lifetime.

When I heard the President of the

Swiss Confederation accept, in the name of the League, the gift of two

million dollars from an American for the construction of a library for the

League I had a strange feeling of

humility. Each time a speech is given

in the Assembly it is translated into

two other languages, which may give you some idea of how slowly the work

of the League must progress. It may also give you some idea of how* im­portant it is for those of us in college to “ make hay while the sun shines” oi in other words, get a good grasp of

our foreign languages while we have the best opportunity in the world. It is very interesting to note that the

Germans always understand either

English or French even though they may not speak perfectly. However, they are always willing to try on the slightest provocation, which is more than can be said for the English and the French.

Florence, “ The City of Flow’ers” , is a charming place and each day I am

liking it more and more. The Univer­sity proper is closed during the early part of October, but I am having an

Italian lesson every afternoon from an instructor, and the mornings I

spend in the picture galleries and the

cathedrals. There are two small Eng

lish libraries in the city where it is possible to get some very good books on Italian art.

Florence Churches

Some of the churches quite take my

breath away, as do the original paint­ings of which I have seen copies and have heard about all my life. I think

Professor Fairfield has been here twenty-five times, and now I under­

stand why. For those of you who still

have the opportunity it would be wise to build a background for the appre­

ciation and the understanding of these

lovely things in the world. While I

w-as in a French class at the Univer­

sity of Geneva I was asked to write

FIRST CO LLEG E PAPER WAS PU B L ISH E D IN 1867Early College Paper Called

Neoterian”44

By Carroll McEatlunn

Volume One, Number One of the

Lawrence Collegian, the forerunner of

the present Lawrcntian, was published

in December, 1867. It was a small eight page monthly paper printed in Milwaukee and was established as

“ a means of cultivating and improv­ing our literary ability. “

Lawrence University, “ an institute of learning for both sexes,'* in those «lays had a faculty of seventeen and

an enrollment of two hundred and

seventy as compared with the hundred and forty students of the University of Wisconsin.

Tearful short stories and musings on

politics, the wonders of chemistry,

physics and astronomy, comprised the subject matter. Criticism of other

papers was freely given and taken. More than one editorial used synon­yms of “ n itw it” and “ hypocrite“

to good advantage.

Advertising

Advertising was in its infancy as is shown by the following examples:

“ Miss liimebaugh will not be un­

dersold. Her whole stock is to be sold out at old fashioned prices. Call while they are going.“

“ The many friends and patrons of

\V. S. Cleggett take notice! He has

moved his Shaving Saloon from No.

73 Coll. Avenue, and is now situated two doors south of the American ex­press office. ’ *

The nearest approach to anything

contained in our Dustpan was:“ The College Courant gives us to

understand that Northwestern univer­sity has a GIRL. Selah!“

In 1871, realizing the folly of at­tempting to make a college paper suc­

cessful as a literary monthly, notice was given that “ abstract essays and political blasts were not in order.“ The editor proposed to have discus­sions on the curriculum, college ex-

penses, and woman suffrage in the

college. The paper then had twenty

smaller pages, with two columns to a

page. It was published in and was put out by the Collegian company of

which all shareholders were students

and only students were on the staff. The wit improved some for the fol­lowing appeared:

It was a young lady in an Eastern

academy of music who wrote her

I'. S. thusly: “ You must exkews this letter as I pla bi noat butt spek bi ere. ’ *

Name Changed

In 1878 the name was changed to

Neoterian and in 1880 to Collegian

and Neoterian. As there had been

charges of fraternity or society poli­tics in its editing, its management was placed in the hands of Athena, Law- rean, Philathean and Phoenix, the

literary societies which were the fore­

runners of our fraternities.For a time the publication of the

paper was allowed to lapse, but edi­tions wer# printed in the last two

months of the college year in 1883. The publishing was put in the hands

of the Lawrence Paper association and since then the Lawrentian, as the pa­per was called, has been issued con­tinuously.

Checkered Past

The Lawrentian varied with the times and with its staff. “ Theological dissertations and metaphysical dis­

quisitions" are prevalent in some is » sues and noticeably absent in others.

Some issues abound with flowery

scroll-like headlines while others have

scarcely any headings. In 1880 we find the forerunner of the sport sec­tion in a half column write-up telling that “ Our Base Ball team has had

grand success.“ In 1893 pictures of

the glee club and the “ Athletic

Team“ were printed on smooth-faced

sheets and were attached to the is­sues. In place of the editorial duns

the words “ in advance“ were print­

ed after the price which was one dol­lar for the nine issues.

The Lawrentian Association took over the management of the paper in 1897 and two years later it eam^'oot in ordinary book size but of thirty- four pages. Ads became fewer for a

time, and separate departments took

care of each class of news. Later short stories took up a large portion of the paper. In one issue sixteen of the twenty pages were occupied with

one story. News of the activities of

debating societies was supplanted by that of fraternities.

Radical changes came in 1903. The

staff was limited to two seniors, two

juniors, one sophomore, and one fresh­man. For a few issues the paper was

a bi-weekly but soon changed to a semi-monthly. The price was raised to a dollar and twenty-five cents per year. For six or seven years the col- lege grew rapidly and its growth was mirrored in the growth of the Law rentian. Ads, jokes, cuts and car­

toons resembling those of today made

their appearance. News items were

occasionally illustrated by cartoons. Departments were headed with sketches. Special numbers, smaller

and bound with heavy paper covers made their appearance about 1906.

Dedication of Carnegie Library, Foot­

ball, Freshman, Coed, Glee Club were special numbers. Due issue was a

mimic of the Ariel.For a year the quality of the paper

lowered and it became a monthly with fewer cuts, ads, and jokes.

1910 was the beginning of another period of growth. The price was raised and a twelve page weekly was issued. The first issue was printed in green in honor of the new tradition that

Two awards will be made for the

houses best decorated for homecom­ing, according to Burton Behling, ’28, chairman of the house decorations

committee. One cup will go to the

best decorated dormitory and the

other to the most attractive frater­nity house.

The first judging will take place

about five o’clock Friday afternoon,

while the second judging will be held

after dark, as the final decision will be made on the basis of appearance during day and hight.

freshmen were to wear the green. The following year the paper came out as an eight-page, three-column weekly

about two-thirds the size of the pres­

ent Lawrentian. Headlines resembled those used today. The Lawrentian

room was changed from the second floor of Science hall to the basement

of Main hall. Office hours were es­tablished and the room was open for

eight hours a week. To gain a posi­

tion on the staff five accepted edi­torials and a number of poems, stories

and essay8 had to be handed in. For three years special, small, bound Thanksgiving, Freshman, Coed, and

Commencement numbers were issued.

Resembles City Paper

The Lawrentian of 1915 resembled ii. form a eity newspaper. The paper

grew from eight to twelve, then six­teen pages of four columns each. Its

staff also came to resemble that of a

newspaper. Separate departments with

distinet functions were organized. Re­

porters were given assignments in­stead of searching out their own news.

Since then the number of columns

has increased to five and in 1925 to

six. In 1926 the paper became a

semi-weekly, and the number of pages was reduced to four.

The Lawrentian iias stabilized' the policies aad ideals of the college by printing its platform, which varies with the needs of the college, on the editorial page.

Wallstreet Is Described By Stock BrokerA vivid picture of the New York

Stock Exchange was brought before the student body of Lawrence college at convocation on Tuesday morning,

when Jason Westerfield, chairman of

the publicity committee of the New

York Stock Exchange, addressed that group.

The chief business of the exchange,

as Mr. Westerfield pointed out, is the accumulation of credit and capital in one great useful unit. That is the justification of a Wall Street, the'mar

k^t place of the nation. This ex­

change of world wide renown, is an

evidence of our prosperity, progress, and domestic tranquility. “ These three characteristics of American

society,“ explained the speaker, “ can­

not be explained by the natural re­sources of the country or by the vast

number of people, for while Russia

has these latter attributes, it has not the former. Our wealth is due, how­

ever, to certain social and moral ac­tivities, which taken as a unit portray our ability to cooperate.“

In conclusion Mr. Westerfield said, ‘ ‘One hundred years ago we were no

farther advanced in respect to trans­portation and communication than the early Egyptians. Today we have

harnessed the forces of nature. We have transferred the burdens from

muscle to mechanics. Today, we are The foremost business center in the world.“

HOMECOMING

A spirited pep meeting in the ehapel this morning ushered in what will probably be referred to in coming years as “ the greatest homecoming Lawrence college ever had.” Elaborate preparations during the past few weeks by members of Pan-Hellenic and Blue Key will be brought out over the week-end, when returning gradu­ates will be treated to a gala succession of events, already under way, which will reach their climax with the annual homecoming dance in Alexander gymnasium tomorrow night.

The celebration includes a big parade tomorrow morning, in which all campus Greek letter organizations will be represented, a torchlight parade tonight down the main streets of Appleton, and the Beloit-Lawrence football struggle at Whiting field tomorrow. When the proceedings have come to an end, Lawrence alumni will have had another opportunity to see the college life at its best, and to witness once more the familiar scenes of their undergraduate days.

Perhaps the most enjoyable feature of any homecoming celebra­tion is the memorial sensations which it transmits to the returning alumni. The atmosphere of a college dance, the spirit of a football game, and the interest which the alumni must take in the entire reunion program, all reawaken an interest in the college; and it is this interest which the alumni attempt to capture upon their return to Lawrence.

The students and faculty of Lawrence college are watching with interest the enjoyment which it is hoped the returning graduates will take in their homecoming. In a very few years most of the present undergraduates will themselves be returning to their former school. The interest which all students are able to display towards the 1927 homecoming is a reflection of that which they recognize in the alum­ni, and which they realize will be their own sensations a few years hence. j ^ . i M

GOING UP

Interest in homecoming proceedings has been accentuated by the sudden, and unexpected withdrawal of Lawrence college from the Wiseonsin-Illinois conference, after being an active member of that athletic organization for nearly twenty years.

The change implies that in the future Lawrence will book more Midwest conference teams, and will be considered seriously in the running for championship honors in that league. Ripon, with Law­rence, has considered it unwise to divide its football activities be­tween two conferences, and the two colleges will henceforth bend every effort towards achieving excellence in the larger wheel.

Lawrence is honorably withdrawing from participation in the Wisconsin-1 Uinoise league, after having won ten of its six champion­ships. Highest rating in the Midwest conference has rested in Ap­pleton but one year, when Lawrence kept its Midwest slate clean in 1922, a net was awarded the title.

With the booking in gridiron contests of such schools as Carle- ton, Coe, Cornell, Knox, Monmouth^and Hamline regularly, blue and white football stoek is bound to elimb. It is assumed by interested “ fans” that Lawrence will continue to engage Beloit and Ripon, both of which are members of the Midwest conference.

The change may usher in the greatest age of football prosperity the college has ever known. With a large group of undergraduate stars on this year's team, a very few seasons may see the develop­ment of a series of great football elevens. —Jack Walter.

TRUE DISCIPLINE

e will see to it that you have freedom, ” President Frankstated in his address to the freshmen at the Varsity Welcome; “ you must see to it that you achieve discipline. Discipline is not some­thing imposed upon you by the university. That sort of discipline is nothing more than police regulations. A discipline that is impos­ed is not discipline; it is regimentation; and against the regimenta­tion of minds the true university flees as from a plague.”

—The Daily Cardinal.

“ You cannot, if you are to be strong, flit from one adviser’s so­lution to that of another, and finally settle upon one of them. You must create, as a new creation of your own, your own solution.”

—Benjamin Ide Wheeler.

Form number 1: Paek ball carefully

on pasteboard box (use adhesive tape, not strings, th^v eost more). Put a

sign on the box: “ Use no hooks.” Drive rapidly to post office. Give

package to man at the third window

along with summer’s wages. A second

man will take box to field, and since

he wears a uniform, opposing plavers will step aside and allow him to pass.

He will drop box on other side of line,

scoring a touchdown.

Form number 2: Deflate ball; hide same under eoat; take thirty seconds

out, carry ball across the line, wait

until time is called. Touch ball to ground. Touchdown is scored.

Appleton Boosters’ Club

This afternoon the judging of the decorations of the various houses will

take place. Results will be announced at the big dance Saturday evening, at

which time the loving cup awards will be presented.

Following the usual Frolic tonight in the gym another pep meeting will be held in the chapel. Talks by alum­ni, coaches, and members of the squad will be given, pep songs will be sung,

and yells ?gain chanted, after which will come the big torchlight parade down College avenue and back. The evening program will close with a

snake dance around a great bonfire on the campus.

Homecoming Parade

The big event of tomorrow morning

will be the annual Homecoming par­

ade, which will begin at the chapel at ten o ’clock. The parade this year is

expected to be the longest and most

colorful of any Homecoming pageant,

and all fraternities, sororities, and

clubs, will be represented with floats. The line of march will proceed west

from the chapel on College avenue, turn north on Oneida to Washington,

down Washington to Appleton and south on Appleton to College. It will

move west on College to Walnut and will then reverse the column and re­

turn back down College avenue, breaking up at the starting point.

The march will be led by Chief

Prim and his officers, followed by

Blue Key, the college band, and the

class of 1931. Sororities will follow

in the order named: Alpha Gamma

Phi, Alpha Delta Pi, Phi Mu, Kappa

Alpha Theta, Delta Gamma, Kappa

Delta, Zeta Tau Alpha, Beta Phi Al­

pha, and Sigma Alpha Iota. Theta Phi, Beta Sigma 1 hi. Delta Iota, Sig­ma Phi Epsilon, Phi Kappa Alpha,

Phi Kappa Tau, Delta Sigma Tau, and

Psi Chi Omega will comprise the fra ternity lineup in the order given, fol­lowed by campus organizations and clubs.

Beloit vs. Lawrence

Saturday afternoon the celebration

will reach its climax at Whiting field

when the Vikings clash with Beloit

in the twenty-fourth annual battle

between the traditional rivals.The whole affair will draw to a

fitting close Saturday night at the

gymnasium when the annual Home­coming dance will ring down the cur­

tain on the 1927 festivities. The com­

mittees in charge have been at work for weeks on the preparations for this

dance, and it is expected to be the most pretentious function ever at­

tempted for an all-college affair.

nesday, Thursday and Friday from 7:45 a.m. to 10:00 a.m.; from 10:30

a.m. to 5:45 p.m.; anr from 6:45 p.m.

to 10:00 p.m. On Saturday the clos­ing hour will be 6:00. Vacation hours

w’ill be from 9:00 to 12:00 noon every

week day, holidays excepted. Any changes from this schedule will be posted.

Other library rules include the fol­lowing:

The pink cards in open reserve books must be signed when the book

All books may be drawn from the

library for two weeks except refer­ence books, periodicals and reserves.

Two week books should be charged on the white slips. No books or periodi­cals may be taken from the stacks

w’ithout being charged at the circula­tion desk. Only seniors may use the

stacks without special permission. Books used in the stacks should be left on the desks at the ends of the stacks and not placed back on the shelves where they would no doubt be

misplaced.

The following fines are imposed for books that are overdue: reserves,

twenty-five cents for any part of the

first hour, and five cents for each ad­ditional hour; two weeks books, two

cents for every day over tw’o weeks that the book is kept.

A new table has been placed in the circulation room for many interesting

new books on varied subjects.

OPINIONS

A great divergence of opinion as to

what is the most important feature of

homecoming is evinced by the several

replies which have been given to that

question.

President WTristor: “ I like the idea

of Homecoming. The thought of Law­

rence as a home, to w’hich those who

have been here may return, is a graci­

ous thought in itself. It suggests some

of the values w’hich come from college

life. It brings definitely to mind the

loyalties that grow, and ^ud, and

blossom, and bear fruit. It empha­sizes the continuing interest in the

work and progress and fortunes of the college. It brings opportunity for re­newal of old ties, for refreshing of

old memories, for new’ information as to new plans, for inspiration as to fu ture hopes.

“ Coming at a colorful and bracing time of the year to an occasion color­

ful and joyous, the alumni find not only diversion from ordinary tasks,

not only enthusiasm for the team and its efforts, but a warmer appreciation

| of the function and place of the col­lege in life.”

Ray Richards, ’28, chairman of the Homecoming publicity committee: “ The thing that interests me most is the alums who come back. I like to

hear howr things were done in their

day, and the impressions the} have of

Oxford Club

The Oxford club was entertained at dinner at the home of Dr. John R.

Denyes, E. Washington street, Tues­

day evening. The club is to have charge of the services at the Metho­dist church of Green Bay next Sun­day, and the following Sunday at the Methodist church of 8eymour.

the school at present. There is a pro­motion of school spirit too because every one is working with a common purpose. ’ *

Lola Payne, ’28, president of Orms- I by: “ Just the spirit of the whole

celebration, especially the reunion of old friends, is of utmost importanceto me.”

Lael Westberg, ’28, President of the

All-college club: “ I do not choose to

express my opinions on this subject.”Verel Knaup, ’28, Vice-president of

the All-college club: “ Perhaps the

most attractive feature of this year’s program is that of broadcasting the

music of the Homecoming dance, and

the float and house aw’ards. It will increase the interest of the student body in the dance. But greater than this it will form a bond between the

alums listening in and the students and alumni actually participating in the homecoming celebration.”

Dr. Naylor, Dean of the College:

“ By all means, the football game!”

Jack Rudolph, ’30, sports editor of

the Lawrentian: “ Homecoming tends

to shake the college out of its lethargy

and arouse a little pep, just for a change. It is one of the few times

during the year when real pep is shown.

Dr. Weston, Professor of Latin: “ Its very existence as a homecoming and the idea of reunion connected with it, seem to me the most attrac­tive features of the idea. It is the

homecoming spirit w’hich urges alums

Brokaw Examination* To Be Held On Nov. 1

A competitive examination for the Norman Brokaw’ scholarships, for ex­cellence in Latin, will be held on No

vember 1, under the supervision of Dr. A. H. Weston, of the department of Latin.

These scholarships, established by Mrs. Kate Brokaw of Appleton, are

awarded shortly after the opening of each academic year. All students who

are matriculated in the college as freshmen, W’ithout entrance condi­

tions, and who are enrolled as mem­

bers of the freshman class in Latin,

are eligible to participate in the com­petition.

There are tw’o awards given, one of $60 and one of $40. The successful

candidates must continue to be accep­table in character and demeanor, and

to maintain satisfactory scholastic

j standing throughout the year under

penalty of forfeiting the scholarships.Helen Proctor, Neenah, and Viola

Beloit Faces

Viking Team

At AppletonHomecoming Gime To Be Hard

Fought; Both Elevens Inexperienced

“ Bent Beloit” is an old Lawrence

battle* cry which will be re-echoed at Whiting fieid tomorrow afternoon,

when the two rivals again face each othe r on the gridiron. With that one

thought in mind, Coaches Catlin, Ko- t.tl and Christoph have concentrated

on an offense and defense that will

cause Beloit no eiul of trouble, it is

loped, in the annual homecoming bat­

tle. The struggle between the two teams stands out as one of the “ high spots’ ’ of the homecoming celebra­

tion, aud a real thriller is expected.Same Lineup

Coach Catlin will use practically the same team that started the Lake For­est game, with slight substitutions

where they may be necessary. Jessup

and St. Mitchell will take care of the end positions with Bent and MacDon­ald in reserve. Ott will probably

grace the sidelines with his broken

finger, and his taekle berth will have

to be plugged by a substitute. Krohn will hold down the other tackle berth, and Posson may fill the other. Catlin’s two stocky sophomore guards, Yroecks

and Ehlert, will start in their posi­

tions, with Shauer and Kittleson both

ready to work at center.In case Bloomer is eligible, he will

start at quarterback, with Schlagen-

hauf and Maclnnis in reserve. Brus-

satt, who starred in last week’s game, will start at one half with the old

reliable Barfell at the other. Hum­

phrey will be in at fullback, with

Pierce, Hunter and Gelbke ready to take the place of any of the backfield

men.

Beloit Team

Captain Lawrence, dashing quarter­back, will lead the Beloit eleven onto the field tomorrow. He is an excellent open field runner, a good tackier and

blocker, a fine punter and drop kick­

er, and a satisfactory forward pass

heaver.

Williams and Botinno at halves and

Laabs at fullback will accompany

their captain in the backfield. The halfbacks are both new men, fast and

shifty, with specialization on off

tackle dashes and end runs. Laabs is

a 178 pound husky, and is the star

line smasher of the team. He also tosses a good many of Beloit’s passes.

At center Coach Bohler has a new

man, Germann, who has shown re­markable development in filling his position. Fessler, sophomore guard, is a big husky and Xieiuan, varsity man

of last year, is at the other guard.

The tackles are taken care of by Kuick and Rasinske. The latter is a

letterman of last year, while Kuick is a new man. Both are fairly light,

but are fast and aggressive. The ends, Westenberg and Lourin, are somewhat light in weight.

The whole Beloit team appears to be light, with the line averaging 164

pounds and the backfield 158 pounds. The team, however, is ably supported with substitutes for every position.

Athletic Director

A. C. Denny

Denny Makes Great Sports Contribution

To Lawrence College

Athletic Director Has Turned Out

Several Championship

Teams

In his three years as athletic direc­tor, A. C. Dennv has put intra mural sports at Lawrence on a sound basis,

has brought Lawrence from the bot­tom of the basketball ladder to a

Mid-west conference and a Wisconsin collegiate championship, and to a sec­

ond place in both races.Denny is a graduate of LaCrosse

normal where he was a football, bas­ketball and track star. After gradu­

ating from LaCrosse, Denny came to

Neenah high school where he made

exceptionally strong basketball teams.

In 1922 he came to Appleton high,

where he turned out some of its

strongest football teams.In 1923 Denny came to Lawrence.

His first basketball team placed third

in the Mid-west and Wisconsin col­legiate races. In his second year Lawrence captured the Midwest cham­pionship. The third year under his

supervision saw Lawrence tie with Cornell for the Mid-west title and win the Wisconsin collegiate flag. In 1925

his teams won the Wisconsin collegi­

ate track title and were undefeated in

cross country. Last year Denny took

a leave of absence, but he has already

started his cross country squad on the

road to a season without a defeat.

Lawrence Captain

Elmer Ott

A broken finger will force the Blue and White captain to remain on the sidelines tomorrow in his last Home­coming game and his last battle

against Beloit. Ott, a product of Kau-

kauna, has starred in the line lor Lawrence for three seasons, and his

work at tackle has earned him {»laces

on several mythical all-star selections.

Ott is a hard, clean tackier, a bulwark

on the defense, and does more than his

share on offense. Although he has not

had the fortune to lead a champion­

ship team, Ott has fulfilled his cap­taincy exceedingly well, and his play has been a constant bright spot in an otherwise drab season.

University

Coaches Vikings

Any “ old timer” who has followed football history since the days of 1900 will remember the day when Chicago

was playing Michigan, and the cham­

pionship hung in the balance. With

the score 0 to 0. a flashy Chicago end

tackled a Michigan back behind the goal line and clinched the champion­

ship for Chicago. This end was none other than Coach Mark Catlin.

Catlin is still remembered as one

of the most outstanding athletes Chi­cago university has ever had. Besides

being a great grid satellite, he held the world’s indoor track record for the fifty-yard high hurdles. Upon graduating from Chicago, Catlin went

to Iowa university, where he studied law and assisted in football coaching.

Later he came to Appleton to practice law and in 1909 took the coaching

reins for Lawrence football. For the

next four years his teams captured the

Little Five championship. In the fifth year they tied w;th Beloit for the title

and the next year finished second.

Catlin returned to Lawrence in 1918 to coach the famous S.A.T.C. team which still ranks as one of the strong­

est Blue and White elevens of all time. He left at the end of the year,

but returned in 1924 to capture an­

other Little Five pennant.

Lawrence Has Won Fifteen Games From Beloit College

By Jack

Although Lawrence college had been playing football since 1893, it was not until six years later, in 1899, that the Vikings first met Beloit on the gridiron. Since that autumn day,

twenty-eight years ago, the Blue and White has mingled with the Blue and

Gold on twenty-three occasions. Tab­ulation of records reveal that Law­rence has emerged the victors of fif­

teen of these battles, Beloit has won

five, and three have ended in dead­locks.

Beloit had been represented on the

football field for several years before

Lawrence ever had a team, and was considered in those days to rank with members of the Big Nine, as the

Western conference was then called,

and consequently, when Lawrence met the southerners for the first time in

1899, it wasn’t expected that the

Vikings would do more than take a

whipping. Beloit did win that first

game, but the Blue gridders put up

such a terrific battle that they were forced to play almost super football to eke out an 11 to 0 decision.

In 1900 Beloit won again, by a score of 26 to 0, but the following year, the

Blue and White broke the spell of de­feat, and startled the rtate pigskin

world by administering a 24 to 0 de­

feat to the proud Beloiters. The vic­

tory permanently settled Beloit’s claims to superiority, for, with the exception of a forfeited game in 1910,

and ties in 1904, 1912, and 1922, twen­

ty years elapsed before a Blue and Gold team carried away a decision.

The score in 1902 was 22 to 0 in

favor of Lawrence, and the following

year the teams battled to a 5 to 5 tie.

In 1905 Lawrence earned a 12 to 0 edge, and repeated in 1906 with a 10 to 5 score. Again in 1907 victory

rested on the Viking goal posts, and if Lawrence had had a trophy room, another football with the legend, 11 to 4, painted on its leather side,

would have taken its place on the

shelves.

Those four points were destined to be the last counted by the Gold

against the Blue for more than a de­

cade, for until 1919 Beloit was urabit-

t«j score on Lawrence. In 1908 the score was 17 to 0, and in 1909, 5 to 0.

During the game of 1910, a squabble

arose which resulted in Lawrence

Rudolph

walking off the field and forfeiting the game to Beloit, 1 to 0. The Blues won again 1911, 8 to 0, and the fol­lowing year the two elevens battled to a scoreless tie, which was followed

in 1913 and 1914, by Lawrence vic­tories by scores of 9 to 0, and 36 to 0.

Relations were broken off in 1915 and 1916, and the World WTar, coming in 1917 and 1918, swept football from

the horizon. Lawrence had no team

in ’17, and when they reorganized in 1918, it was only a service schedule.

With peace declared, college foot­ball came into its own again in 1919,

and Beloit resumed its place on Law­

rence’s schedule. That year, the year of Lawrence’s first Homecoming, the

Blue and W’hite resumed operations

with a 6 to 3 win, and repeated in

1920 and ’21 with 10 to 0 and 36 to 0

victories. In 1922 they again fought

through four periods to a scoreless

deadlock.

At last, after twenty years of fail­ure, Beloit battered down the barriers that had held her so long from vic­

tory, and in 1923 overwhelmed a Vik­ing team, 24 to 9. This joy lasted only a year, however, as Lawrence

slipped into the rut of victory again in 1924 with a 10 to 0 win.

Although Pid Purdy, present quar­terback of the Green Bay Packers,

was declared ineligible the week be­fore the Lawrence game, in 1925, a

fighting eleven from down state bat­

tered its way to a 14 to 0 victory over

its ancient Nemesis. Last season

Lawrence crushed Beloit, 24 to 7.

Lawrence F oo tb a ll P layers Have Won Nearly 140 Games

By Jack

One hundred thirty-nine victories, seventy-seven defeats, and fourteen tie games in thirty-four years. This is the complete football record of Lawrence since the college first took up the gridiron sport in 1893.

But, as one reads in old Lawren tians the story of Lawrence’s bril­liant history, those figures mean more than mere games won and lost. They tell the history of the development of the college, showing how at first Lawrence was backward in accepting the sport, forced to send its first in­experienced teams against well- coached opponents and how in a short time she was fighting her way to the crest of athletic prestige through vic­tories over larger rival colleges.

No Football Before ’93 Prior to 18H3, according to the

Lawrentian files, Lawrence did not engage in football, although Law­rence and Ripon trackmen met an­nually. In ’93, however, in response to continued agitation a team was or­ganized, uniforms purchased, and the big parade was under way. There were only eleven men on that first squad, for it was not until 1896 that a second team was organized to give the varsity practice.

Late in October of 1893, this eleven travelled to Ripon for the first game of football ever played by a Blue and White team. The exact date is not given in the Lawrentian for Novem­ber, ’93. Lawrence was the first to score, playing even with the ex­perienced Ripon team throughout the first half, and the period ended 6 to 6. In the second half, Lawrence weakened anti Ripon pushed over three touchdowns to win, 24 and 6.

Two Games In *93 Only two games were played that

year, the other resulting in a 4 to 4

Rudolph

tie. Dr. J. II. Farley, well known nieinl>er of the present faculty, played right half back on that team, and during the two years following.

Since 1893, Lawrence has defeated Ripon fifteen times, lost nine games and tied three. Beloit, first encoun­tered in 1899, ranked with the Big Nine teams, but of the twenty two games Lawrence has played with the southerners, the Blue and White has a record of fifteen wins and three ties.

Marquette first met the Vikings in 1902, and since then the latter has won seven games and lost six, includ­ing oue forfeit, and one tie. Carroll came in 1908, and here too, ¡¿awrence is on top, fourteen games to four with two tie games.

Lawrence teams held the state championship in 1911-12-13-14-20-21- 22 and 24, with the Midwest title in 1922. Most of these titles have been

won under the coaching of Coach Cat­lin. Only once has Lawrence gone through a season undefeated, but in many years the only defeats inflicted were at the hands of W'isconsin, Min­nesota, Michigan, Chicago, and other Western conference machines. And Lawrence grads of years ago still re­member the time they tied Wiscon­sin, a touchdown in the last minute of play saving the university team from defeat.

Theta Phis Take Net Championship

Winning three straight sets by scores of 6-2, 6-4 and 6-4, Remntel and

Catlin brought the Theta Phis through to first place in the inter-fraternity tennis race, in the final mateh played Monday afternoon. Klauner and Rob­son, of the Sig Eps, runners up, fought

an uphill battle from the first set on.The match was a re play by agree­

ment among the players when dark­ness forced a halt in the fifth set of the match which was begun last Fri­

day afternoon. The “ play over’ *

was not as sensational as the original dispute, although on several occasions, seemingly impossible returns w’ere

made by both teams.

Lobbing came iu for an important place in the tactics of both squads,

but volley shots from midcourts, well

timed and placed, usually brought this

“ Lindbergh tennis” to a finish. In

both the seVond and third sets the Sig

Eps staged comebacks, but the wear­

ing, tearing Theta drives were more

than Robson and Klausne'r could cope

with, and the match ended, 6-2, 6-4, 6 4.

Thirteen High Schools Send Debate Requests

Thirteen high schools of W'isconsin

and Michigan have sent requests for

a place in the Lawrence debate schedule this year.

The schools which have already sent requests are: Eau Claire, Green Bay, JefTersou, Lake Mills, Menasha,

1 rairie du Chien, River Falls, Shawa­no, Sheboygan, South Milwaukee, and

Wausau of Wisconsin, and Escanaba and Iron Mountain of Michigan.

October Lawrence Alumnus Contains

Notable Features

From the good-looking, newly-de­

signed cover on through to the last of thirty-two pages of interesting read­ing matter, the October issue of the Lawrence Alumnus is a magazine of

which the college, thq alumni, and its editor, Dan Hardt, ’26, may well be

proud.The drawing on the cover of the

tower of Lawrenee Memorial chapel

and Main hall with the title “ The Lawrence Alumnus” is the w’ork of

Austin Saecker, ex ’17, an Appleton

artist.“ Faith, The Key to all Know­

ledge’ ', the matriculation day address

delivered by Dr. L. A. Youtz, is the

opening article in the magazine.

A feature is the publication of the text of one of the addresses delivered

here during the winter by the Rev.

Henry Hitt Crane. Dr. Crane has

kindly consented to prepare three of

his addresses in manuscript form, and the other two will be printed in suc­

cessive issues of the Alumnus.A reproduction of the picture taken

of the student body and faculty group before the Memorial chapel is the central illustration of the book, and twelve other cuts illustrate the vari­

ous articles.There are interesting accounts of

the work of notable alumni such as

Lt. Col. Frank J. Schneller, ’02,

Neenah, president of the Lawrenee

Alumni association who was recently

unanimously elected Commander of

the Wisconsin American Legion, Rev. Arthur L. Frederick, a member of the department of religious education of

the College of Puget Souijd, Tacoma Washington, and Professor A. F. Otis,

principal of the John Milledge Gram­

mar school, Augusta, Georgia.Four poems appear in the Alumnus,

three by Olga Aehtenhagen, ’20, and

one by Ralph Culnan, ’24.An editorial, “ A Decline in En­

rollment” , gives satisfactory and con­

clusive reasons for the slight decrease

in the student body.There are stories on Homecoming,

the college band, Greek pledging, the

new faculty members, a reprint of “ Tut’s” letter from Switzerland, a feature, “ Worms Register Come­

back’ ’ written by Margaret Joslyn,

’31, and an athletic section written

by Royal LaRose, ’28, besides many items of current interest in a section

entitled “ About the Campus.”

Sunset Play IsNow In Rehearsal

With the date of production less

than a month off, rehearsals were

started this week for “ The Romantic Age” , by Milne, w'hich the Sunset players will present in chapel on Tues­

day, November 22. Selection of the

business and production staff will be made in the near future, according to

Miss Lucile Welty, director of the three act comedy. Tickets will also

be put on sale soon.Rehearsals are to be held daily un­

til the twenty-second of next month. Members of the cast are Ray Rich­ards, ’28, Verel Knaup, ’28, Margaret Boslough, ’30, Eleanor Lea, ’30, Diehl Snyder, ’29, John Walter, ’29, Wil­liam Meyer, *31, George Jacobson,

’28, and Ruth Ann Linn, ’29.

Browsing Through the BookshelfBy JAMES COLLIER FORD

ZELDA MARSH, by Charles G. Nor­ris. E. P. Dutton and Company.$2.50.

“ Zelda Marsh ’ V-the very syllables

of the title have the piquanev, the un­usual quality, the challenge of this

novel of a woman ’9 life. Charles G. Norris has a knack of selecting in­

triguing titles; witness: “ Brass” ,

“ Bread” , and *‘ Pig Iron” ; but in none of these has the inner nature of the story so w’ell expressed itself as in this name.

There are three men in the life of Zelda Marsh. There is Michael—a

young love that, as it has a way of

doing, tinges the thoughts and actions

of all her days. Then came George Selby, a song and dance act over­

burdened with a sense of the possible pleasures of life, who proposes again

and again. So Zelda becomes the wife

of a vaudeville turn and travels on

the two-a-day. With a sudden, rather daring twist of writing, Norris lifts

her out of the ¿ad tragedy of existence

w’ith Selby, and overnight Zelda be­comes a star, glittering in the theatri­

cal firmament. Her fame brings her in contact with Tom Harney, wealth,

youth, and assured position. There

are three men in the life of Zelda Marsh, and her'life absorbs, consumes,

and exhausts all three and is in turn

engulfed.

Norris has given us a powerful

novel in “ Zelda Marsh’ ’. It is con­

vincing. True, the character of the vulgar Selby stands out above the

others, which are perhaps more sha­dowy than one may reasonably expect

in a realistic wTork. We do not feel

Zelda, until she has her name in the

bright lights of Broadway—she is the

veil through w'hich we see the back­ground of the action.

Life, how’ever, is surging through

the pages of the book. This novel is

the product of one who has unques­

tionably lived and experienced. It is alive with the tears, the doubts, the futilities, the rare, fine joys that throng the hours of men. It is intense w’ith the feeling of the poet when he

wrote:“ Life burns us up like fire,And song goes up in flame.”

Book Tips

This is the year of titles in color.

There’s Aiken’s “ Blue Voyage” and

Nathalie Colby’s “ Black Stream”

and Niles’ “ Black Haiti” and Julia F'eterkin’s “ Black April” . Some­

body ’s been getting rough when ev­

erything’s black and blue.Two of the large publishing houses

are amalgamating this year—George

H. Doran Company and Doubleday, Page, and Company. The aspiring au­thor will get one less rejection slip

now. But hold—T. R. Coward and J. A. McCann, at present on the Bobbs-Merrill staff, are forming a new

company. So cheer up, you’ll be able to get that rejection slip after all.

WE by Charles A. Lindbergh. G. P.Putnam’s Sons. $2.50.

Here is the book you have been hearing about—Lindv’s own story,

the one he wrote in longhand himself, mis-spelling some of the w’ords and

breaking the point of the pencil from time to time.

It is the account of the background of one that has been called the Typi­cal American, of the days and duties that finally rolled along to the mom­ent when Lindy hopped off for Paris,

thereby capturing the imaginations of the world as no other man has done.

He has told it himself, modestly as

only he would. In the pages of its

intimate narrative, we see the Uni­versity of Wisconsin against the back­

ground of Lindy, the flying school; we go barnstorming with those early,

somewhat weakly-audacious passen­gers over the Dakotas and Montanas. We learn of Lindy as a stunt flier, of the exciting routine of his experi­

ences in the air mail, of his emergency

parachute jumps. And then we go up with him to those high days of the

trans-oceanic flight and after.As in all its other activities, the

combination of “ We” has been suc­
