GOES TO SOUTHSIDE
The Howard College Combined Glee
Chib was invited over to the Southaide
Baptist church last Sunday evening to
take charge of the music services.
Some 40 strong the Glee Club under
the leadership of Mr. Kamplain, the
assistant pastor of Southside Baptist
Church, won much praise and com¬
mendation.
One of the main features of the
program was the Girls’ Quartet. Many
compliments were passed on the ex¬
cellent voices of these fair damsels.
The program opened with several num¬
bers by the Men’s and Women’s Club 1
combined. Following these numbers
the Girls’ Quartet sang several selec¬
tions.
Mrs. Paul de Launey also Bang a

_
Mr. and Mrs. Sholfleld, who have
charge of the music at the First Bap¬
tist church, entertained the students
Monday morning in chapeL As always
these two singers rendered their num¬
bers beautifully. The Howard audi¬
ence was delighted with them and
their songs.
Miss Durant Entertains.
Dr. Gardner and Miss Durant of
the Ensley Baptist church visited
Howard college Wednesday morning
and rendered a most charming pro¬
gram.
Dr. Gardner read the scripture and
made a short talk, the substance of
which was: “FTnd your aim in life,
prepare for it, then do it. Many find
their purpose In living but fail to
reach the ultimate goat because of
lack of work; more failures come
from lozinees than from lack of abil¬
ity. Make up your mind to succeed,
but don’t allow one success to ruin
yon; make a new goal and pass It.”
After Dr. Gardner’s talk Miss Agnes
Durant gave several charming musical
readings.
Pep Meeting Held.
Prof. Burns read the scripture Fri¬
day morning followed by a prayer.
There being no speaker chapel exer¬
cises were turned Into a pep meeting
led by our able cheer leader. Mr.
Frank Mullins. All the old kells were
given with new and hitherto unequal¬
ed vim and several new ones were
learned and given In great style.
The Bulldogs feeling very little the
worse after their tilt with the Com-
modorea are in a revengeful mood Just
now and Saturday will invade the Vil¬
lage of the Plains to vent their re¬
venge on all that comes In their way.
It is not the most pleasant thought
that occupies the minds of the Bull¬
dogs when they think of their bewil¬
dering defeat by the Auburn Tigers
last year on Rickwood Field.
This is one of Auburn’s early games
of the season and heretofore was
merely a frolic to them. Howard has
served from year to year aa an easy
mark, one at which the Tigers have
been able to leave practically in the
hands of their cubs. A game to let
men run at will for a touchdown, a
game to assist Auburn’s coaches to
pick their varsity elevens Auburn has
always looked over the Howard game
as a ‘-track meet" But “Thom days
hln’t no more.” Coaches Cope and
Dobbins are going to send in a team
practically as heavy in the line as Au¬
burn, but a bit lighter in tlie back-
field, and the fightlngest bunch of
thoroughbred Bulldogs that ever
thronged a kennel and no more fear
of an enemy than a snake ha» hips.
Birmingham -Southern held the Ti¬
gers to the low score of 20 to 0, and
Howard contends to have the best
team of its last few years on the field
now. The Tigers are going to be a
disappointed bunch of Stripes when
they face that Bulldog menace Satur¬
day. A practice game is going tp take
on a reality bearing when that first
whistle blows. The Bulldogs have
blood in tlysir eyes, revenge in their
hearts and full determination to make
the Plainsmen repent from their in¬
flicted superiority on the Bulldogs for
many seasons pa*t. The thought of
72 to 0 calls to mind men like Shirey,
Shirling and a host of others, but they
are memories ssr fiSu Sst-fu*7 ttv»*
men will be ruefully missed.
Team we are for you, behind you and
will think of the game as it progresses
even if we can't be present In body,
we will be present In mind. Bulldogs,
give ’em what Pat gave the drum?
Win or lose, you are still our fighting
canines, and we will stand by you to
the last man.
Students, let's give them a send off
worthy of their praise— meet that
train and yell like hr."-'. • :

Basketball Material
Plentiful This Year
With the football season well under
way and a great team in the field,
Howard College feels as though fate
is kind to her as never before. With
the third game recorded as a part of
the institution's history, it is well for
her supporters to turn in a very pleas¬
ant mood and take an inventory of her
basketball material.
Howard College stanlle in her aca¬
demic work, with thei best of our

within the state without a doubt. We

Those present at the Friday after¬

tion to our college, and community ac¬
tivities.
Its relation to the college, educa¬
tionally, spiritually and socially were
ably discussed by Mr. Rodgers. Mr.
Bureon and Miss Ratliff. A round ta¬
ble discussion followed. Everyone
was impressed with the earnestness,
the breadth of vision and the sincere
purpose of those who spoke.
The volunteer whose life and efforts
will count most is he or she who
putting Christ first in hie or her life
tries not to seclude himself from the
many varied activities of college life,
but who is an all-round man, or an
all-round girl
May we aa students who are seek¬
ing to Christianize Howard College
bringing it up to its highest standard
of a Christian Institution, enter heart¬
ily into all Us activities, making our
lives such aa will enrich and uplft and
spritnallze the campus life. In doing
this we are not seeking self aggran¬
dizement bnt rather through co-opera¬
tion with and loyalty to the institution,
the faculty the Young Men’s Christian
Association. the Young Women’s
Christian Association and the Student
Government Association. We want to
serve God and yoo, our fellow stu¬
dents, thas living the spirit of our
band and of our Master.
On acconnt of a hike

Howard Holds Best Team In South Tu
ч
Surprising Score
For a second time in so many weeks
the Bulldogs pulled their stakes and
ambulated into Tennessee for adven¬
ture. The last scene of battle wai
Dudley Stadium. Vanderbilt’s new ath- *
letic field. Though never for one sec¬
ond did they quit fighting even if they
were fighting against trig odds and
losing all the while, they did not stall
for time as less courageous canines
are sure to do, but fought until the
game ended facing a defeat of 27 to 0.
There is no doubt as to the strength
of Vanderbilt They haven’t l08t"a
game in two years and the team this
season is the same to the man. Do
we feel good over the Bulldogs’ scrap
to save their scalps and hold such
an aggressive team to only four touch¬
downs? Vanderbilt will take heed be¬
fore again attacking the Bulldogs as
an easy mark in an early season game.
The Commodores were never In dan¬
ger the Sewqnee Tigers were, yet by
the effort It was necessary for theft
to exert to vanquish the Howard ken¬
nel they will not forget that game
for many moons.
Wishing to amend a statement that
came out in the city papers that Van-
dy used her second team practically
all the game and that Howard used
only her best team: This statement
is true. to the extent that Coach Cope
played 22 men in the game and Van-
dy used very few more men than the
Bulldogs.
Vandy kicked off to the Bulldogs
and after gaining possession of the
ball on Howard’s failure to make her
downs. the Commodores marched
down the field for a touchdown. This
time Vandy chose to receive and on
the kick-off Captain Knhn snatebed
the ball from the air and ran 78 yards
for a touchdown. After a few substi¬
tutes In the Commodore’s ranks they
were able to score only one more
touchdown in the remaining three
quarters of the game.
Early in the game Ham Stevens
was marked by Vanderbilt as a dan¬
gerous man by stopping Reece and
Kuhn when it seemed that they had
evaded the rest of the Bulldogs. But
Stevens was not permitted to harass
the foe so wilfully and was soon car- ~
ried to the side line where he re¬
mained for the rest of the game. Tln-
klepaugh took his place and starred,
too. Many times cheers went np for
him, for his nice work and diminu¬
tive size.
Lollar did some nice panting for
the BalldogB and easily outdistanced
the foe’s punting. Claud Brewster
played a good
чате
at center, as did
Kelly at tackie. Brewster was re¬
placed by Brindley in the last quarter
due to Injuries received in the face
until one eye was completely closed.
Brindley was forced to stay on the
side lines most of the game as a re¬
sult of injuries received from the Se-
wanee tilt.
In the fourth quarter the Bulldogs
started a dangerous aerial attack and •
for a while the Commodores were In
danger of being scored on.
А рам
from Stobbs to Sheppard netted a
gain of 30 yards, hot the next pass
was intercepted for the loss of the
