A ll musical organizations are now
well under w ay in their fall program s
and the music department has the
largest enrollment in its history, ac­
cording to the latest report from Robbert W. Manton, D irector and A sso­
ciate P rofessor o f the department o f
Music.
The U niversity Band, under the di­
rection o f Lewis Swain ’ 18, bandmas­
ter, has a busy schedule this fall and
numbers m ore than fifty. The band
officiates at all m ilitary drills on W ed­
nesday afternoons, and all home fo o t ­
ball games. They follow ed the team
to the Boston U niversity game and it
is hoped that the student body w ill
send them to lead the students at the
Tufts game. The band also w ill as­
sist in furnishing music at some o f
the convocations this term.
The M en’s Glee Club has a m em ­
bership o f over fifty and as the club
suffered very little loss from gradu­
ation last June m ost o f the men have
had experience. Their first appear­
ance on the campus w ill be in a joint
Christmas Carol Service w ith the
W om en’s Glee Club, Decem ber 6 and

program w ill be new and has secured
some beautiful English music fo r the
occasion. Frank W oodw ard ’29 o f

The W om en’s Glee Club suffered a
heavy loss in membership last year
by graduation but has been fortunate
in receiving support from the fresh ­
man class and now has a membership
o f nearly seventy. They are w ork­
ing on music this fall fo r the tradi­
tional carol service. The officers
are: Muriel E. Andrews, ’31, Som ersworth, president; M argaret R. M cDanolds, ’31, N orth H averhill, secre­

BOTH CROSS C O U N T R Y TE A M S
TO M EET H A R V A R D S A T U R D A Y
The V arsity and Freshm an cross
country team s w ill journey to Cam­
bridge this week-'end and com pete
with the H arvard V arsity and Fresh­
men aggregations. This is the first
time that a New Ham pshire cross
country team has met a Harvard
team in recent years, according to
Coach Paul Sweet.
Last Thursday the H arvard teams
won from H oly Cross in a meet held
at W orcester.
A s a featu re o f the U niversity
D ads’ D ay program the New H am p­
shire football team w ill play its old
rival the U niversity o f Maine Satur­
day at 2.30 on M em orial Field. This
w ill be the big home game o f the sea­
son fo r the W ildcats and all week
they have been w orking w ith the
game in view. The fr a y has always
been a m ajor one between the two
universities, and the riv a lry the past
few years has been very keen. D ur­
ing the last dozen years, N ew H am p­
shire has had the edge in the ratio
o f victories to defeats, but each year
the Maine eleven has risen to a
height above itself in the game
against the Blue and W hite. This
year both teams have had favorable
seasons to date and are out to chalk
up a victory in this game.
A special program is being plan­
ned fo r the occasion. Governor H unt­
ley N. Spaulding w ill attend the
game, arriving at M em orial Field
with his party at 2.15. A t 2.20 Gov­
ernor Spaulding, President Lewis,
President Boardm an o f Maine, and
A djutan t General H ow ard w ill be
presented to the coaches o f the two
teams on the field. A t this time the
ball which is to be the goat o f the
aftern oon ’s entertainm ent, w ill be
dropped to the Governor b y Edw ard
Gadbois, ’22, a well known New
Ham pshire gridster and a member o f
the ten year team picked by “ The
G ranite” last year, from his new Cur­
tis plane, which w ill be piloted by
Russell H illiard, also a New H am p­
shire alumnus. Im m ediately follow ­
ing this, the Governor and his pa rty
w ill be escorted to a special box, re­
served fo r the official pa rty and their
wives.
A t present the odds seem to be in
fa v or o f the W ildcats, who are com ­
ing ahead strong and w ill be in good
shape to meet Fred B rice’s Pine Tree
State eleven. Stewart, a dependable
halfback, w ill be able to see service
again Saturday. A leg in ju ry receiv­
ed in the Colby game, has kept him on
the sidelines through the last two
games, but the injured member is
now considerably im proved and is in
condition to stand at least a pa rt o f
the struggle. W ettergreen, who didn’t
play against Rhode Island last Satur­
day, w ill be back in the lineup, and
will doubtless prove a stum bling block
to the Maine ball carriers. The start­
ing lineup w ill be essentially the same
as it has been in the past games. K el­
ley gave a good perform ance at
K ingston and is a strong bidder fo r
the signal calling position.
In fa c t
all the men showed good footb all in
the Rhode Island game and there
seems to be a strong com bination o f
reserve m aterial on hand. Theodos
and Christensen, prom ising line play­
ers, have been suspended from the
squad fo r a week and w ill not report
until M onday.
The team has shown a tendency to
fum ble all season, w hich w as particu ­
larly noticeable against Rhode Island.
Coach Cowell and his staff have been
concentrating on this weakness all
week and are in hopes o f preventing
any disastrous “ breaks” o f this na­
ture in Saturday’s game.
The officials have been picked with
a view to fa ir and strict officiating,
preventing any h aggling or unneces­
sary delay o f the game. M. W . Fradd
o f H arvard w ill be referee, F. W.
Lewis o f H arvard, umpire, O. L.
Tow er o f W illiam s, head linesman,
and A. W. Ingalls o f Brown, field
judge.

A study in styles has been made at
Yale, Vanderbilt and Princeton to find
out what the college man is w earing.
It was found that extreme cut trous­
ers, absurd shirts and tie com bina­
tions, and all other freakish affects
have disappeared. The reasons given
fo r the change were that the “ slouchy dress” o f the college man was not
attractive to one’s colleagues, to the
co-eds, or to a future employer.
A new system o f elections to
“ Green K ey ” is being follow ed at
Dartmouth this year. Nominations
are to be made by petitions signed by
fifteen members o f the society, any
member m ay sign as many petitions
as he likes. Then on a set date the
mem bers of the Junior class meet
and make further nominations. The
election o f the members is given to
all Juniors. It is believed that this
system will give membership in Green
K ey to Juniors who are really m ost
outstanding instead o f to those whose
fratern ity already has the most
members.

Alumni News
Alum ni Office, O ctober 18— W e are
goin g to quote a few lines from the
welcom e speech to the delegates o f the
A m erican Alum ni Council b y Presi­
dent L. D. Coffman o f the U niversity
of Minnesota, which institution en­
tertained the Council last May. The
speech is too long to run in its en­
tirety, but there are certain sections
which should be o f particular inter­
est to all alumni o f New Hampshire.
W e will m erely make the quotations
leaving all comment to our readers.
“ But it is clear to me that the
graduates o f state universities, even
m ore than the graduates o f other
higher institutions o f learning, are
greatly in need o f developing a m ore
abiding devotion to their universities.
A ll college graduates need to bear in
mind that the generations follow in g
in their wake will need advantages
even superior to those they them ­
selves enjoyed, and that these im ­
proved facilities and advantages w ill
result partly from the manner in
which they conduct themselves to­
ward society in general, and towards
education in particular, after gradu­
ation. * '* * *
‘ ’ If the alumni o f the great p ri­
vately endowed institutions should
maintain that university instruction
on a high level and im portant r e ­
search should be carried on only in
such institutions, and if they stood
in the w ay o f increased appropria­
tions fo r state universities that de­
sire to provide university work o f a
corresponding character, such alumni
would have missed the meaning o f a
liberal education. * * * *
“ W e expect a college graduate to
continue to be loyal to the institution
that poured out its soul to him in such
generous measure. W e expect him,
however, at the same time to recog ­
nize that the wealth, the com fort, the
happiness, the institutional develop­
ment, and the industrial efficiency o f
the nation depends upon m aintaining
m any centers in which men o f letters
and o f science are perpetuating their
own kind. * * * *
“ Alum ni association should be w or­
thy o f the highest ideals o f the in­
stitution they represent; they should
stand fo r catholicity o f spirit and of
mind; they should be cosm opolitan in
attitude; they should be essentially
educational in character; they should
uphold the hands o f those who are
fighting the battle to preserve the
freedom o f the institutions that grad­
uated them ; they should insist upon a
still higher and better type o f edu­
cation within these institutions.”

on the part o f the educators o f the
state in their selection o f those best
fitted fo r college work. The median
scores o f this year’s freshm an class
are, in all except three cases, higher
than those o f last year. The men of
’31 were outclassed in all but the
test in analogies, which is quantita­
tive in type and measures the m athe­
m atical abilities. Likewise the w o ­
men o f ’31 were victorious only in the
field o f analogies and, by a very
slight difference, in the mathematics
training test.
P rofessor J. O. W ellman, head of
the Education Departm ent and direc­
tor o f the U niversity Summer School,
who conducts the tests during Fresh­
man W eek, is o f the opinion that the
analogies test was slightly m ore d if­
ficult this year, which fa ct would seem
to account fo r the result. Mr. W ell­
man gives tw o reasons fo r the uni­
versally higher scoring: first, that
there is a steady increase o f better
teaching in the H igh Schools o f the
State; and, second, that there is at
present much m ore adequate guid­
ance on the part o f high school ad­
ministrators in advising those who
are unqualified to attend some post­
secondary institution other than c o l­
lege.
Although this test has been con­
ducted this fall in universities and
colleges all over the country, com ­
parisons cannot be made until April
1929, when the Am erican Council on
Education publishes its annual report
o f results. Last year’s freshmen,
the present class o f ’31, compared
very favorably in their record with
other and sim ilar educational insti­
tutions o f the nation. A ccordin g to
P rofessor W ellm an, our freshm en
have consistently maintained high
averages in the field o f mathematics,
probably because o f the large enroll­
ment in the College o f Technology
where mathem atical aptitude is a
very essential asset.
A gain this year the fem ale con­
tingent triumphs over the male in the
linguistic tests, which include oppo­
sites, artificial language, and com ­
pletion; while the masculine forces
enjoy suprem acy in the quantitative
tests, which include arithm etic and
analogies. The masculine mind seems
to continue to be the more scientific
in both attitude and interest.

Wisdom
About the most foolish expenditure a college man
ever makes is to buy a cheap fountain pen. Sheer
waste! Lifetime0 is the college man’s pen because
it is dependable always. LIG H TEST T O U C H starts its
ready ink flow, yet three clear carbons can be
made at one writing, due to its remarkable nib.
And it’s guaranteed unconditionally for a life­
time! Faultless service— and no repair charges,
ever. It boasts a beauty as thrilling as its perfect
performance. And the Titan pencil offers like
reasons for the preference of every wise buyer.
