which started Friday at Tulsa university.
According to John Hicks, president of Lambda Chi, the S.M.U.

Hicks stated that Gov. James V.

"High Tor", a story of a famous
mountain located in New York, was
written by Maxwell Anderson,
author of "Winterset". The play
opened with Burgess Meredith and
Peggy Ashcroft in the leading
roles a t Guthrie McClintic's Martin
Beck theatre on Broadway in January of this year. The play quickly
won the approval of the New York
dramatic critics and was awarded
the Critic's Circle award in April
by Robert Benchley, Walter Winchell, Stark Young, Edith J. R.
Issacs, Ruth Sedgwick, George Jean
Nathan, Gilbert Garbiel, and John
Mason Brown. Their citation stated
that "This is the most distinguished
play by an American in many
years, combining comedy with
poetic beauty."
"The Arden club players have
had their eyes on this play ever
since it opened," stated Barney
McGrath in his exultation over the
play. The organization staged the
first non-professional premiere of
Anderson's "Winterset"' in the
spring of 1936, which was one of
their outstanding hits. So, with

by playing card games (not poker),
dominoes, and reading different
books and magazines. Of course
there will be music by the radio
and nickleodeon.
At 11 p. m. the Ponies will gather around the table to partake of
a little nourishment, very little.
The meal will consist of a small
piece of meat, rarely cooked; a
baked potato, two pieces of dry

Thompson, a graduate from the
S.M.U. journalism school. Thompson has been recently connected
with the publicity staff of the
Greater Texas and Pan-American
exposition.
Last year he sponsored two contests, one for a news story and the
other for the best editorial submitted from the editorial writing
class. The editorial contest will be
held again, but will not begin until
the second semester.

Swing vs. Sousa will be the musical line-up of the Coca-Cola broadcast a t 6:30 p . m. Saturday emanating from McFarlin Memorial auditorium over Station WFAA. Melodic rebuttal in t h e dispute will be
offered by the S. M. U. Mustang
band and the University of Texas
Longhorn band. Respective sides
are obvious.
The public is invited to attend
the broadcast, which is transmitted
each Saturday over the Texas Quality network. The audience must be
seated by 6:15 p . m.
Hal Thompson, WFAA an-
nouncer, will emcee the thirtyminute air show. Ben Lee Boynton,
Coca-Cola commentator, will review
Saturday games.
Frank Malone will lead his swing
champions first through a "Study

with Malone's arrangement of a
medley of Southwest college tunes.
"Evolution of P e r u n a " will trace
the song in hymn, maypole, Waring, swing, and "scream" versions.
The entire assembly will be asked
to sing "Varsity."
Strictly martial airs will predominate in selections offered by
George Hurt's Texas band.
Ford, and Dr. Watt Winn are on
the list of returners. Other exMustangs who played important
roles in the S.M.U. of their day
including stellar grid stars, outstanding cheer-leaders and student
government officials will be on
hand.
Initial explosion was the presentation of the Mustang band's
annual show, "Pigskin Revue," last
night in McFarlin Memorial auditorium. With this entertainment
began the influx of ex-students to
the campus of their past hey-days.
Today's activities begin w i t h
early morning visitation of classrooms and campus buildings by the
exes. At 9 a. m. the judging of
fraternity houses will take place.
The judges, Sol Dreyfuss, Dean
A. C. Zumbrunnen, and Freeman
Burford, president of the Mustang
association, will determine the winner of the silver loving cup, their
decision based upon the house decorations which most cleverly and
originally carry out one of the two
fundamental themes of Homecoming or the Texas-S.M.U. football

Dudley Curry Named
Commerce Secretary
The staff of the School of Commerce Friday announced the appointment of Dudley Curry, instructor in accounting, as alumni
secretary of the school.
Among his duties will be keeping in touch with the graduates of
the Dallas School of Commerce, as
well as other commerce exes. The
total number to date who have

S.M.U. is 515. Of this number,
about 10 per cent is young women.
Over two-thirds of the commerce

ALABAMA
Dr. Charles C. Selecman, president of S. M. U., was elected one
of the seven clerical delegates t o
represent North Texas a t the general conference of the Methodist
Episcopal Church, South, to be
held a t Birmingham, Ala. The
seventy-first session of the North
Texas conference was called Wednesday a t the Tyler Street Church,
Dallas, and meetings continued
throughout the remainder of the
week.
Also included in the delegation
to the conference a t Birmingham
will be seven lay delegates, four of
which were elected a t Wednesday's
session and the remaining three

One of the highlights of the session was the approval of the unification plan which calls for the combining of the three branches of
American Methodism by an overwhelming vote of 235 to 13. The
Methodist Episcopal Church and
Methodist Protestant Church, along
with eighteen other Southern conferences, have already approved the
plan. Twenty-three other Southern
conferences have not yet voted on
the proposal.
Smith Brothers
Hog Directory
Trivial Smith again triumphed

count compared with last years is,
Williams, 21; Jones, 18; Johnson,
13 Harris, 10; Allen, 13; Browns,
14; and Collins, 7.
The 1936-37 Student Directory
contained 72 pages compared to
the 1937-38 directory of 80. With
approximately 42 names on one
page, and 48 pages of names, gives
a grand total of 2,010. Also, 42
names on one page, and 59 pages
of names in the new directory,
gives a grand total of 2,478. This
is an approximate increase of 462
students over last year.
Illuminus names appearing in
the new directory a r e : Tom Collins (ask any bartender), Jack
Johnson (pugilist), John Lewis

Rise To Prominence By Mustang Band Begun
% Cy Barcus With Injection of "Swing'; Peruna
Song Made Nationally Famous By Organizatii
I t was in the fall of '32. The
S.M.U. football season was at its
height. Ownby stadium was packed
to capacity. Gay, gaudy, flashy
clothes, a scattering of huge yellow Chrysanthemums adorned the
coats of milady, tiny torches of
fire across here and there, small
clouds of smoke were whipped up
by the near-freezing December
wind, streamers of red and blue
flittered back and forth, a whisper,
a hush, then a burst of voices characterized these care-free football
fans.
A sudden quietness blanketed the
stadium. The man quickly assumed
his position in front of the stadium.
He got the eye of every man before
him. His batch swung upward and
the strains of "Peruna" resounded
throughout the stadium—just as
they had echoed from coast to coast
during the seven years that Cy
Barcus directed the famous Mustang band.
When the tune was finished, the
famous band leader laid down his
baton and slowly walked back to
his seat, now a spectator. As he
sat down, he ceased being a band
leader and became a preacher. Cy
Barcus, the originator of jazz music
for college brass bands, the man
who made "Peruna" famous and
led the Mustang band in seven
states, had directed his last piece
as director of the Mustang band.
Cy Barcus is now visiting his
alma mater after an absence of
five years. He is on the campus for
the reunion of former band members Oct. 29 during the Homecoming celebration. Rev. Barcus is now
pastor of the Mt. Calm Methodist
church, Mt. Calm, Texas.
Rev. Barcus first came to S.M.U.
as a student in 1915, the opening
year of the University and the first
year of the now nationally famous
Mustang band. Five men turned
out for the first practice session
that year and three of the group
were: Red Mills, bass; Raymond
Jasper and Cy Barcus, trumpets.
Red Mills now directs his own band
and currently is playing in California, and Raymond Jasper is first
trumpeter in Herby Kay's orchestra. Shortly after that time, Rev.
Barcus enrolled in the Culver military institution where he became
solo cornetist and made his expenses by playing in the Culver
band.
In 1922, he attended Southwestern university where he reorganized their band and directed it for
two years. In 1924, Rev. Barcus
again became affiliated with the
S.M.U. band—this time as direct,
During his absence, the s t a n J

the goal may be reached.
Pan-Hel Committee
We asked several weeks
ago if the committee appointed by Women's Pan-hellenic to
revise rush rules was not
"just another committee." Apparently that committee deserves the title suggested.
Defects in the present quota system and rushing methods were clearly revealed in
the Pan-hellenic court held in
September and the concensus
of opinion was that something
should be done. But nothing
was done.
Actual proof was missing,

implied that certain sororities
broke rush rules and that possibly a rushee had done the
some. But nothing was done
about these infractions.
Before next rush season, it
is the duty of Women's Panhellenic to make an adjustment. Referring such action
to a committee will help very
little. "Putting off today what
can be done tomorrow" is one
form of logic, but a better
quotation is to "Strike while
