"Early Rhode Island Pronuncia-

When interviewed by a Teco
K ho reporter. Dr. Simpson seemed I
reticent about discussing his part on
the M. L. A. program, beyond con-
riding that his study had been based
on the spellings of unlearned clerks
in Rhode Island town records of the
seventeenth century. "If I should
go on to try to explain to you what
I tried to do he said "you would
quickly become bored. Ami I
shouldn't blame you. After all, there
were many things that happened at
this convention which have a more
compelling interest
"What, for example we
ventured.
"There was a great deal of ten-
sion the morning that Professor
Howard Mumford Jones of Michi-
gan was to address the convention.
His subject, 'American Literature
and Scholarship had been an-
nounced in advance, and a summary
of his speech had been printed. It
was a very forthright paper, and
minced no words in treading on the
feet of several important persons,
notably Percy Long, who edits the
quarterly, PMLA, published by the
association. Mr. Jones contended
that we as a nation have been too
content to look up to British and
continental civilizations, cultures,
and literatures; and it was his feel-
ing that we are paying altogether
too little attenti n to life and litera-
ture in our own country. In
particular, he scored the PMLA for
printing too many articles concern-
ing Middle and early modern Eng-
lish, too few concerning American
literature. It is true, I think, that
a good deal is to be said for his point
of view.
"But Percy Long did not think
so. So wrought up was he by Mr.
Jones' criticisms of his magazine
that he launched into a defense of
himself�even before Jones could

Miss Ruth Kiker and Miss Viola

Memphis, Tenn December 27-31,
1935. Miss Kiker represented the

Probably the most outstanding
speaker was Kagawa, the greatest
Christian in the world and a great
Japanese worker in the slums. He
spoke twice on Saturday, December
28, which was known as Kagawa

was "What Christ has Meant to

law of love was the greatest thing
in a Christian life.
The phases of Christianity that
were discussed during the confer-

Opening the past quarter, the
Science Club had a program devot-
ed to current topics. It included
discoveries from a chemical stand-
point.
With chemistry as a central theme
for the quarter, the subject of
photography furnished material for
a good program. The details of
film making, developing, printing
and enlarging were explained. Ac-
tual prints and enlargements were
made.
The last meeting of last quarter
was a gala Christmas party. Old
Santa attended and distributed
gifts, which had been selected as il-
lustrations of the receiver's charac-
teristics.
Physics is the main objective for
this quarter, and promises programs
fully as entertaining as those on

There are numerous questions which arise from a careful study of these

resolutions :
1. Why do we have no societies, fraternities, and honorary societies on
our campus?
2. Do we have an Honor System?
3. Is there an adequate amount of Sex Hygiene offered here? Is it
campus wide or confined to limited groups, such as Science and Home

LIKE TO TACKLE IT?
Everyone has observed, no doubt, that Gotten Hall parlor has been
greatly improved this year. It came about like this : At the end of last year
the budget committee voted $500 of the surplus from the student fund
for use in the renovation and redecoration of Gotten Parlor. During
the summer the floors were refinished and the walls painted. At the
beginning of the fall quarter $370 was turned over to the class in Home
Economics 326 to spend for the improvement of that room. The money
was spent in the following way:
8 rugs 6x9 feet.
8 rug pads 6x9 feet. W5
1 rug 9 x 12 feet H
1 rug pad 9 x 12 feet.
1 chest of drawers.
1 drop leaf tabb
1 desk.
1 sofa.
1-1 pairs curtain?
2 etchings.
6 wall beaches repainted and recovered.
6 sofa pillows recovered.
Radiators repainted.
The results are certainly praiseworthy. The effect produced on one

friend and treasurer-of thisjnstitution, Mr. by the parlor is much more desirable now than it was previously.
For contrast, all one needs do is walk down the campus from Gotten
to Jarvis. Stumble across the broken porch, open the front door, and
step inside.
Only a short time is required to realize that the room is practically
vacant. Its contents may be enumerated as follows:
S ordinary straight chairs.
2 tables (1 heavy and 1 long and narrow).
1 rocking chair (cream wicker with blue cushion).
12 bookeaaes (or shelves for some purpose, painted red inside).
There are no rugs on the floor. No soft lights from lamps lend a com-
fortable atmosphere. There are five ceiling lights, only three of which
burn.
Think what an opportunity is here. Jarvis parlor could be fully as
lovely as Fleming or Gotten. At present, even Wilson surpasses it. The
amount spent on Gotten indicates that Jarvis could Ik- furnished for a
sum so small that it might be possible for an energetic person to "scare up"
the necessary amount. Anyone interested would certainly find splendid co-
operation in the president of the college and those members of the faeultv
who are acquainted with the work involved.
A nicely furnished parlor in Jarvis Hall might prove an advantage to
many students. Eventually, someone is going to have to date somewhere

their guests in Fleming. Perhaps another group might date in Janus.
Surely those students rooming in Jarvis would like to have a parlor there

A: tin- first meeting of the faculty after the death of J. B. Spilman,
President Meadows appointed a committee from the staff to submit
1 solutions or tributes to be presented to him at the next meeting.
This committee has well expressed the sentiments of the faculty, the
student body and community as a whole.
Of the three who make op this committee two have worked with Mr.
Spilman since be started bis official duties here, the other has been closely
associated with him in the office.
The resolutions of respect are as follows:

JUSTIFICATION
You may think perhaps that your editor was mistaken in her belief
that the printing of the resolutions adopted by the recent congress of the
NSFA is justifiable. If you are of that opinion, it is because you
read those thirty-three articles (found on page four) without an in-
quisitive nature. The NSFA being a national organization, the
resolutions decided upon by it, express the National opinion concerning
the matters in them. Is it not interesting, then, to scan these verdicts
with questions in your mind as to how closely this college agrees with
the majority of the colleges and universities in the United States; and
consequently, how closely you agree with the mass of American students?
I dare say that in the resolutions are found references to many subjects
foreign to you. Should they be foreign? Should they remain so? Or
should the disfavor registered in the resolutions concerning Hearst pub-
lications and newsreels arouse your interest to an extent sufficient to make
you want to know specifically what is objected to? On the other hand,

has been rounding the men into
shape and it looks as if he might
have some good material.
Besides having all of last year's
team back, with the exception of
Jerry Davis, he has quite a few men
who will make the regulars fight
for their position. Candidates for
the squad include: Stowe, Gibson,
F. Hinton, Cunningham, A. Smith,
Avers, Johnson, Ridenhour, Calfee,
Ferebee. Hollornan, Proctor, Flem-
ing, Abernathy, Scarborough, Wil-
liams, Woolard, Wells, and Forrest.
Hollornan. who is a former Cary
High School star, is the best pros-
pect for center. Hollornan is 6 ft.
S in in basketball togs. He should
be very valuable to the team.
There is a lot of good material in
the ranks of the newcomers and
with the size of the squad Coach
Mathis should have plenty of re-
liable substitutes.

f feet inches tall. He� thcm vrere g��d- There was a
talk made by a student from Oxford
University, who was a guest at our
convention, which I liked. He des-
cribed the American Student he
knew after an eight week's stay in
the U. S. His opinion of us was
uncomplimentary in that, he claims
we aren't, good students. We are
going around in circles, looking for
something, but uncertain as to the
nature of that something. He ad-
mitted that as persons, we are all
right.
Q. Did you have an elaborate
social life while at the Convention?
A. No. but we had a sufficient
amount to allow us to become ac-
quainted with each other. For
instance, there was included in the
program an informal dance, ban-
quets, and formal dances. One
interesting thing to me was the fact
that there were three negro boys
from Atlanta attending the con-
vention. On the night of the formal
banquet they like everyone else ap-
peared in full dress. The night of
the first dance, the Southern and
Southeastern Regions called a meet-
ing at intermission, so as to further
the Southern Hospitality idea.
Q. Did you meet Tom Neblett,
the President of NSFA?
A. I had already met him at the
convention in Florida last year.
He is a good speaker and presides
unusually well.
Q. Was the hotel a very nice
one?
A. Yes, it's one of the largest
in Kansas City.
Q. Whom did you know on the
train ?
A. A girl from Spring Hope,
representing Greensboro College,
and two boys from State College.
We went all the way together and
had lots of fun.
Q. Didn't I hear something
about your pulling a publicity
stunt?
A. Oh no, but you are probably
referring to my accident in the
cafeteria. I started to get up from
my chair, and fell flat. I was so
embarrassed, for even the manager
came running to help me.
Q. What about seeing Eddie
Cantor!
A. I saw him in the Union Sta-
tion in Kansas City. He was
traveling and just happened there
at that time.
Q. What conference w to be
held here in the Spring!
A. The North Carolina Student
Federation convention wall be held
here then.

rience, having played five years for

freshman we are expecting much
from him this year. He has had
experience playing for his home

players. He plays at the forward
position. He has had much experi-

Clarence Cunningham hails from

years at Hopewell High and we are

him in the next few years. He has
proven his ability as an athlete and
his many friends will enjoy seeing
him in action again.

Student pacifists who seek lowered

more fortified to learn that in the

with one exception.
That exception is a union of -bng-
and snd Japan against America.
And that, of course, is about as like-
ly as a brotherly game of chess
between Josef Stalin and Morgan.
INDOOR SPORTS SECURE
ROOM IN CAMPUS BUILDING
The Woman's Athletic Associa-
tion has just secured a room up-
stairs in the Campus Building.
This is a great accomplishment as
it will moan now indoor sports in
which every member of the Associ-
ation may participate. Plans are
l�eing made to put curtains at the
windows, to provide comfortable
chairs, and to subscribe to sport
magazines.
Two new sports already decided
upon are croquet and table tennis.
This room may be used by any mem-
ber of the association. Students
wishing to join now may do so upon
payment of fifty cents for dues.

GAMES LISTED
Schedule Includes Game With
Mitchell Junior College, Not
Played Previously
The girls basketball schedule for
this year does not include many
games so far, but the team hopes
that more games will be secured in
the near future. As yet there have
tn-cn only five games scheduled;
however, the manager. Elizabeth
Keith, is still trying to find other
girls' team for K. C. T. C. to play.
The squad this year is as strong
and as efficient as any team this
college has had thus far. and the
members are looking forward anx-
iously to their game�.
A game has bees scheduled with
Mitchell, a sdtooJ that EL C. T. C.
has not played before. Mitchell, a
Junior College located at States-
ville, is reported to have a very
creditable team.

year is as follows:

Fields of Medicine, Chemistry, and
General Industry Thought to
be Involved in Ray
Berkley, Cal.�University of Cali-
fornia scientists here have completed
the set-up for man's first experi-
ments with a really lethal "death
day 14 times as powerful as the
X-ray, and so dangerous that ap-
proach from any direction to within
50 feet is unsafe.
The ray is a powerful beam of
neutrons, the ultimate particles of
atoms discovered four years ago
by English scientists.
The first sizeable beam of these
neutrons is produced in the heart
of the field of an 80-ton magnet by
a method discovered by Prof. E. O.
Lawrence of the University of Cali-
fornia.
Involved, though at present un-
predictable, are possibilities for the
fields of medicine, chemistry and
general industry. The neutrons,
streaming in all directions from the
big magnet, are not stopped by any
known type of shield, not even by
lead. They pass through the yard-
thick coils of the big magnet as if
it were so much paper, and nothing
will perceptibly slow them down
except water.
To experiment in safety the Cali-
fornia physicists have set up a re-
mote control panel 50 feet distant
from the magnet, with a tank of
water forming a three-foot thick
barrier.
As easily controlled as an electric
light, the beam is produced by a
12,000 volt current, "stepped up"
to 4,500,000-volt beam of neutrons.

FOOTBALL DECLARED TO BE
BIG BUSINESS IN COLLEGES

By Associated Collegiate Press)
New Haven. Conn.�Football is
Big Business in over 70 per cent of jpr�granis
American colleges, according to
President James Rowland Angell
of Yab. who charges that in these
schools it is the crowd
�the receipts�that
everything else connected with the
game.
Should college football, with its
sub-rosa subsidization of players,
lose out in the competition for
popularity with the professional
teams, and follow college baseball
into obscurity, there are three pos-
sible solutions for schools that re-
fuse to countenance any but strictly
amateur procedure. Dr. Angell says.
The three ways out cited by the
Yale president are: Endowments
rendering the athletic program inde-
pendent of gate receipts; discon-
tinuing some or all sports as finan-
cial responsibilities of the colleges
and leaving them up to the students;
or the abandoning of the whole pro-
gram of "college sports as public
spectacles" with a return to the in-
formal games of the pre-Victorian
era.
11. Resolved; that the NSFA
sponsor an organization of college
editors to further disseminate col-
legiate news and work for the more
complete freedom of the college
press.
12. Whereas the case of Dr.
A. J. A. Kraus has been brought to
the attention of the NSFA, we in-
struct the Executive Committee of
the NSFA in New York to investi-
gate the facts and if the Committee
finds that the college has dismissed
Dr. Kraus on the ground of mental
unfitness merely as a guise to cover
their opposition to his policies, the
Executive Committee shall take the
steps which are to the best interests
of Dr. Kraus.
13. Resolved; that NSFA should
continue its activities as the United
States representative of Inter-
national Student Service.
14. Resolved; that the NSFA con-
tinue its affiliation with the CIE for
the coming year. Be it further re-
solved that our universities be more
widely informed as to the travel
International Relations Clubs in
open forums in various colleges that
are members of NSFA.
22. Resolved; that NSFA con-
tinue its membership in the National
Peace Conference.
2:?. Resolved; that the NSFA go
on record as approving the exten-
tion of the present Neutrality Act.
24. Resolved; that the NSFA go
on record urging American Youth
never again to go beyond the borders
of the United States to participate
in a foreign war.
25. Resolved; that the Executive
Committee give consideration to the
possibility of beginning the fiscal
year July 1 rather than September 1.
26. Resolved; that the "Mirror"
be abolished within two months un-
less 1000 subscriptions are avail-
able.
27. Resolved; that students should
actively participate in curriculum
revision; that students should take
the responsibility for emphasizing
the understandings, attitudes, skills
and other learnings to be gained
from college courses rather than on
credits and grades; that the guid-
ance program of colleges and uni-
versities should be adequate as to
number and qualification of counsel-
ors, for emphasis upon the values
both of college courses and extra-
curricular activities, and for the
cultivation in each student of a
critical and creative attack upon the
problems confronting him; that
more serious attention be given to
the nature and scope of the curricu-
lum in our schools, and that both in
and outside of the classroom greater
emphasis should be placed upon
study and solution of student
problems, of general problems, of
know that it will be well done.
Everyone who knew him, who
worked with him realized that what-
ever task was given him would be
well done. I have in my pocket
statements from various officials
throughout the state, from students,
from people who had1 known him
in Raleigh, and practically every-
one mentioned his capability. I
have a letter from a member of the
Board who says she has never
known a more capable person. As-
sistant Director of the Budget Dun-
lap says he has never dealt with a
person who had a finer personality
and who understood his business
better than Mr. Spilman did.
"I would characterize Mr. Spil-
man as being a loveable person. I
could name hundreds who loved
him: I don't think I could name
anybody who knew him well and
didn't love him. I don't think he
was ever hated, or adversely criti-
cized; students would go out wor-
ried because they couldn't meet
their obligations, but I think they
realized that Mr. Spilman was try-
ing to help them.
"He was a gentlemanly person,
a thorough gentleman, a gentleman
of the old school, a man who re-
spected the rights and privileges of
others. For about seven years he
and I use to walk to and from the
college together, before either of us
had a home here, and I learned him
quite well; yet, in spite of that, Mr.
Spilman would come into my office
after I was made president, and
never take a seat, until he was asked
to. He observed those nice cour-
tesies in a way few people observed
them. You will not find a person
among the thousands who have been
in his office who was not treated
with the utmost courtesy.
"On the twenty-fifth of December
he closed his books. Christmas
morning, while children everywhere
were happy, he went to join those
who had gone before. Some of us
feel like the last leaf on the tree,
or as Thomas Moore put it

Some years ago there was a group

the eight I am the only one left.
Those who are gone are President
Wright, Professor Wilson, Profes-
sor Austin, Professor Underwood,
Dr. Laughinghouse, Mr. Ragsdale
and Mr. Spilman. Are they in
some other realm moving plans for
future development? Do those who
pass before still speak to us? Is
there recognition in that other
realm? Certainly they speak to
me. They tell us not to become dis-
couraged; not to give up; to carry

Whenever controversy begins over
any new thing, you can generally be
sure that thing has begun to amount
to something.
So it is with American proletariat
literature. For years critics have
been moaning the want of a virile,
real literature of the masses. As the
red ink years have continued the
proletarian spirit in literature has
steadily grown.
A significant localized contro-
versy has occurred at the University
of Michigan. There the editors of
the Daily have put the bee on the
library officials for not including in
their files the important recent works
about the working classes. Only the
journalism library has them, they
contend. As significant books not
accepted in the regular library they
name, "Land of the Free "To Make
My Bread and "Crisis of the

Two weeks later he received letter
No. '1 from the government. Th
time he had to put his initials over
each of the individual items and add
the exact time to the minute of his
arrival and departure from Wash-
ington. Moreover, a correction he
had made in ink was ordered
changed to typewriting.
Another fortnight passed, and
the long-suffering pedagogue was in-
formed he would have to swear in as
a government employe. Still game.
Prof. Graham went to a notary
public and took the governmental
oath promising "to uphold and de-
fend the Constitution This done,
another notice went off to the
Comptroller, giving notice that
WPA Adviser Graham had taken
oath of office and was at last an em-
ploye of the government.
