The attractions arranged by the local committees and the officers of the Corporation give promise of a widely diversified two days in St. Louis on Friday and Saturday, November n and 12. Of notable importance will be the opening business session on Friday morning, when C. Rodman Stull '07, of Philadelphia, president of the Alumni Corporation, will introduce President Farrand for a general presentation of the question of the selection and limitation of students. Dr. Farrand will discuss the problem both in its larger aspects as they affect all colleges and universities, and with particular reference to Cornell will show how the problem is being attacked. Following his talk, Dr. Farrand will hope for a general discussion by the delegates and representatives from the various local clubs. The time-honored union between Cornell and Michigan will be honored on Friday. Wilfred B. Shaw, alumni secretary of the university at Ann Arbor, and generally known to alumni workers as "the Dean" because of his long and distinguished service in educational work, will speak on "The Problem of the Alumni." From several points of view Shaw will speak with authority. He is president of the American Alumni Council, the national organization of alumni workers which unites secretaries, magazine editors, and alumni fund executives. He is the author of several widely-read articles, which have appeared in Scribner's Magazine and elsewhere, on the fundamentals of the relation between alumni and their universities. He is the alumni officer at the university which perhaps more than any other has developed the possibilities for service by local clubs. Among the more important matters which will be up for alumni consideration at St. Louis, with reports by the chairmen of the various committees of the Alumni Corporation, will be the increase in the number of candidates for Alumni Trustee of the University, with further report by Chairman Andrew J. Whinery Ί o , of East Orange, New Jersey, the possibilities of such rearrangement of class-room schedules at the University as will permit of more recreation in the late afternoons, of which committee Dr. Floyd S. Winslow '06, of Rochester, is chairman;the development of the work of the committee on relations with preparatory schools, Thomas I. S. Boak Ί 4 , of Seneca Falls, New York, chairman. The report of Wiley Wakeman '99 on the completion of his first five years as Alumni Trustee, the election of the district directors of the Corporation, and the annual report of the retiring board of directors will be among the other more significant items. The Convention banquet will be held Friday night, at the Hotel Coronado, where most of the activities of the two days will take place. One of the distinguished speakers who will be on the toast list with President Farrand is the Hon. Cleveland A. Newton, generally recognized in the Middle West as prospective candidate for governor of Missouri. Another will be Coach John F. Moakley. Jack will stay over until Monday morning, in order that he may present to the Soldan High School the Cornell Club of St. Louis cup, which is emblematic of the championship of the city in track athletics. The St. Louis program will include one event of particular interest, when the convention will adjourn to the University Club on Saturday afternoon for direct telegraphic communication with Hanover, New Hampshire. The football game between Dartmouth and Cornell will come across the country play by play. From reservations already received, it is evident that the representation at St. Louis will be wide-spread. Special cars will be made up in Chicago and Kansas City, and from points both east and west delegates from many clubs*will be on hand. Although special emphasis is placed on the desirability of representation by the local clubs, through accredited delegates, the convention is open to all Cornell men and women, together with wives and husbands. Inquiries and reservations for accommodations at the Hotel Coronado should be addressed to William P. Gruner '07, 4006 North Broadway, St. Louis, general chairman, or to the secretary of the Corporation, Foster M. Coffin '12, in Ithaca. PRESIDENT FARRAND, thanks to his LL.D. from Toronto, now holds eleven LL.D.'s, in addition to an A.B., an A.M., an M.D., an L.H.D., and a Ph.D. A Man Who Dared George Bell, Jr. >94, Revealed as General Praised by Haig at Legion Luncheon Honor has been paid to a man who disobeyed orders, a man who, as general in command of the 33d Division of Illinois troops, sent four companies of the I32d Infantry of that division into action at Hamel, France, July 4, 1918. That man, General George Bell, Jr., '94, "disregarding an unseemly order at a critical moment," had disobeyed the orders of General John J. Pershing, Commander-inchief of the American Expeditionary Forces, against joining with the troops of the British Army in an attack. General Bell died in Chicago October 28, 1926. In London recently delegates to the American Legion convention attended a luncheon in their honor. They heard an account of the battle of Hamel, the first in which American troops fought under British command, from Earl Haig, who told of the violation of orders and of the importance of the Americans' success, not only in the conduct of the operation but in raising the morale of the Allied forces and proving that Americans were capable of hard fighting. A few days later, Major Henry S. Hooker of New York, adjutant of 33d Division in July, 1918, revealed that Earl Haig referred to General Bell, who in defying the orders of his superior officer risked the loss of his command and military disgrace. Major Hooker still believes that General Bell's action prevented a possible military disaster to the British troops. He revealed that the British had counted on the support of the American troops already in the line just before the fight. ''General Bell himself," Major Hooker said, "took the responsibility for ignoring the order against the American attack," and that move prevented the Allies from setting the American troops down as quitters, at a time when they had not yet fully demonstrated their worth. "The division," Major Hooker's story continues, "went into the British sector primarily for training after its arrival in France. It was to be used in combat only in an emergency. "The British, expecting another big German drive, determined on the attack on Hamel because it was elevated ground and offered the Germans a broad view over the British lines. Such an attack 52 CORNELL ALUMNI NEWS also would straighten out the British line and help them resist the expected attack. ' 'Marshall Haig regarded this asan emergency and asked for troops. Ten war-strength companies were chosen and eventually were placed in position for the attack. On the eve of the battle the American high command ordered them out. Of course compliance with this would have caused great confusion, for at that late stage they could not have been withdrawn and replaced with Australian troops in time. " I t was a critical situation in which the commander onthe spot knew the situation better than the high command. If we had pulled out it would have been a disaster. I twas one of those times when the situation demanded that the orderbe disobeyed and Bell was a big enough man to disobey it. "Four companies of about 1,000 men of the Iβ2d Infantry went over under the command of Col. Abel Davis, and they proved the value of America's new army as Cantigny had proved the value of our regular army in actual combat. The event was celebrated by the Allies all over Europe and Haig was immensely grateful to us. Every one in the division loved General Bell, and wejfelt thatjie had done the necessary thing." After the battle General Bell, General Pershing, and several individual American heroes were decorated by King George V. ATHLETICS Princeton Wins Princeton had the better team and her victory was deserved; but until the fourth period victory hung in the balance. Then the powerful Princeton rushingattack, supplemented by a wide end run and a clever pass, took the ball sixty yards down the field for a third touchdown. And that settled theissue of a closely fought, cleanly played, exciting game Λvatched with keen interest by thirty thousand people, the ultimate so far in attendance at an athletic contest in Ithaca. The score was Princeton 21, Cornell 10. Princeton primarily won through power. Cornell lacked the power, but astonished the spectators with a forward and lateral passing attack that attimes was brilliant. Princeton made twice as much yardage in rushing, but Cornell completed more passes for a greater total gain. A slashing line attack, plus an occasional sweep about the ends and supported occasionally by some smooth thrown passes overbalanced—these were the factors that brought Princeton through. The Tigers beat Cornell ather own game, but Cornell was always a threat, remained a potential winner until well toward the end of the game, and went down fighting. In the last analysis it wasa battle of lines, and in line play the Tigers had a distinct edge. They hada perceptible advantage in weight, they were a shade quicker in charging, and in consequence when the lines locked it was usually a foot cr two in Cornell territory. Behind these big, eager charging forwards the Tigers had a fast, hard hitting backfield. Their attack was led by the brilliant sophomore, Wittmer, a fine plunger, passer, and receiver. Weighing 175 pounds, fast, and clever, he broke through orjumped over the Cornell forwards, and when hetired the burly Owen or the shifty Miles and Noiman took up the burden with telling effect. Cornell's secondary defense,notably Captain Hoekelman, put in an unusually busy afternoon. I t was the secondary defense that usually stopped the Tigers. And that tells the story. Not since 1920, the first year Gilmour Dobie coached here, have the backs been compelled to carry so much of the burden against what is known as "straight football." Passes, yes. But not cross bucks, or straight plunges between guard and tackle, through center, or outside of tackle. The line gave all it had, but it was outpowered and outplayed. And yet Cornell, clearly not the better team, might have won. A hurried punt by Balderston in the second period which traveled only twenty yards gave the Tiger a chance to strike, and he did with lightning rapidity. An intercepted pass fell from Sinclair's hands in the third period when he had a clear field. A for- THE PIGSKIN GOES ON ANOTHER FLIGHT Photo by G. F. Morgan Captain Hoekelmanbeats aTiger to the receiving end of aCornell forward. Aerial work furnishes the thrills to the largest crowd ever to sit in the Crescent. CORNELL ALUMNI NEWS 53 ward pass, Balderεton to Sinclair, fell a couple of feet short of making a first down in the same period and checked the momentum of a promising advance. Sixty yards of a brilliant Cornell offensive was halted on the very goal line in this period when twopasses failed. This was the turning point of the game as Cornellians sawit. Yet none who sawthe game doubted that the outcome was logical and just. Princeton's young team has great possibilities; it may well rank as one of her best. It was a fine game, and a very successful party. After four days of rain, the clouds lifted, and the countryside was Williant in its October coloring. A slightly overcast sky kept the sun from the eyes of the thousands in the Crescent. The crowd was good-humored; friendly Princetonians and Cornellians mingled in good fellowship before and after the game. The best of good feeling prevailed; each side sang and cheered the other. ThePrinceton undergraduates snake-danced about the field and tossed their hats over the goalposts, but when they finished they gathered in the center of the field and paid a graceful tribute to Cornell. Hibby Ayer took off his coat and made the Crescent roar with tremendous cheering between halves. And Colonel " J o e " Beacham '97 made good with his band, which marched out on the field a few minutes before the game opened attiredin brilliant scarlet tunics, white sam-brown belts, dark tiousers and puttees, and jaunty overseas caps and behind a tall white shakoed drum major swung down the field in themidst of a storm of cheering. The band problem is settled. Altogether it was a brilliant spectacle, an athletic contest of the finest sportsmanship. A hard game, but clean and fair. For Princeton the play of the line,the brilliant rushes, passing, and receiving of Wittmer, some great end play by Captain Lawler and Moeser, and the drive of the rugged line were features. For Cornell Hoekelman's fine all around play, the brilliant open field running of Beck, the sound defensive play by the ends, and the gallant efforts of the lamed Anderson will long be remembered. Cornell took the aggressive atthe outset, an unlooked for passing attack putting Princeton on the defensive. Before the Tigers knew what was up Wickham had taken a pass and run for a touchdown. In the second period Princeton came back and evened the score with a smashing rushing attack topped off by a forward pass to Wittmer for a touchdown. Cornell went ahead again when, after anothei brilliant advance. Princeton's defense stiffened onthe ten-yard line and Anderson kicked a placement goal. Then came a bad punt and the Tiger foray for a touchdown ending the scoring forthe half. In the third period neither team scored, but early in the fourth Princeton drove and passed sixty yards for the final score. Princeton, registering eighteen first downs tonine for Cornell, rolled up a total rushing gain of 231 yards as compared with 95 for Cornell. Ontheother hand, Cornell completed seven out of eleven passes for gains of 86 yards, while Priuceton advanced 70 yards in completing seven out of twelve passes. Game in Detail Princeton kicked off. Beck and Balderston made a first down through the Princeton line but further rushes failed and Balderston kicked. A short rush deep in Princeton territory was nullified when Baruch got a badpass from center and fumbled, but recovered a short forward pass. Baruch to Wittmer, made a slight gain, but Baruch soon had to kick to Beck who rantheball from Cornell's forty-five-yard line to Princeton's forty. A pass, Beck toBalderston, put the ball on Princeton's thirty-yard line. Another, Balderston to Wickham, resulted in a touchdown. The pass went for twenty yards and Wickham, unmolested, ran ten more. Anderson kicked the goal and Cornell led 7 to o. Neither team could make gains online plays and the ball was finally punted into Noi man's hands on Princeton's twentyfive-yard line. He ran it back to hisown forty-five-yard marker. Norman made a short gain through the line. A long pass, Baruch to Norman, puttheball onCornell's twenty-five-yard line. Short plunges by Miles putthe ball in scoring position; but Princeton's chance seemed to fade when Miles fumbled and had to take a loss with his recovery. On the next play, however, Cornell was tricked by a neat forward pass from Baruch to Wittmer, which sent the Tiger back over the Cornell goal line. Baruch kicked the goal and they were tied at 7to 7. Wittmer kicked off for Princetonand Beck rantheball from his own five-yard line to the twenty-five. Short plunges failed to bring a first down and Balderston kicked to Norman, standing on his own eighteen-yard line. The ball dropped in a tricky spiral and Norman fumbled. Wickham landed on it. The period ended with another successful Cornell pass, Beck to Sinclair, which put the ball on Princeton's seventeen-yard line. Hoekelman made it first down but two more plunges failed. An attempted forward pass was knocked down by Wittmer, but then Anderson stood on Princeton's eighteen-yard line and kicked a placement squarely between Piinceton's goal posts. Cornell led by 10to 7. Miles ran the Cornell kick-off from his own ten-yard line to midfield. Wittmer and Owen and an old-fashioned cross-buck involving Strubing and Miles made two {Continued on Page 60) BALDERTSON TOSSES THE SCORING PASS Cornell takes the lead over Princetonin their first football game in twenty years asWickham receives the ball fora touchdown.

Untangling Room Troubles Committee Attempts to Keep Peace Between Landladies and Student Roomers Some curious tales as to the ways of students with rooming contracts are always current at this time of the academic year. The fierce business of shunting bewildeied freshmen into rooms has been completed, and the room agencies have balanced their books, but the University's work in adjusting complaints over rooming contracts has just begun. A committee has been functioning for a number of years to take care of the University's side of the question. All disputes are referred to this committee with power, the committee having one of the triplicate contract forms, signed by student roomers, in its possession. Another is retained by the student; the third goes into the landlady's account book. Interesting points are sometimes revealed in the course of an investigation. Embryo lawyers, still students in the Cornell Law School, take it upon themselves to act as counsel to hapless brothers, and their conception of the laws and their arguments in behalf of the defendant furnish, in many cases, a good deal of amusement. The percentage of student plaintiffs in the cases coming before the committee is small. The complaints are usually filed by the landlady, mostly complaints of breach of contract during the school year. This type of case is rare early in the year. The major problems at this period concern the adjustment of tangles wittingly and unwittingly caused by the student's lack of business sense. A number of cases arise in which a student signs more than one contract. The student, having signed a contract, does not like his room. He moves out, chooses another room, and signs another contract. Result: Landlady No. 1 requests half-rent for the remainder of the year. Her request falls on the student's deaf ears, and it finally reaches the committee. The committee has only one course. The contracts are strictly legal, and the student, if his signature is proved, must honor the terms of the first contract. This question seems to be a favorite one with the embryo lawyers. They will argue endlessly, even going so far as to claim ignorance of the law for their "clients." One point is always heavily controverted. A student, signing a contract, perhaps does not take possession of a room. He does not, in legal phraseology, establish a residence there. He may immediately become enamoured of another room or he may join a fraternity. He attempts to break the contract, claiming that he has had no benefit. The point is always heavily stressed by the lawyers, but it usually fails to impress the committee. One student was more than lucky in his dealings with landladies and the committee. He signed a contract, but before taking possession of the room, he was pledged to a fraternity, to whose house he immediately moved. The case came to the committee's court, and he lost the decision. The fraternity stepped in, agreed to pay the half-rent for the rest of the year, and then added a portion of the rent bill to the student's house account. Another student signed a contract for a single room. A few days later he asked for more room, telling his landlady that he was bringing his wife and child from South America to live with him. The landlady's available rooms were rented, and she could not answer his request. He left in search of larger quarters, intending to break the contract. His attempt failed. The committee does some very serious work. Its members, individually, also accomplish a great deal in the adjustment of disputes before letting a case reach the committee. About twenty-five cases have been brought before the full committee this year, and a large percentage of these cases have heen satisfactorily adjusted. The committee aims to settle out of court all cases in which either the landlady or the student is not seriously affected. The committee, its chairman, Charles E. Cornell, feels, has been decidedly worth while. It has effectively handled a situation which might be of considerable disadvantage to other University departments. The committee finds, in many cases, that disputes aie the result of misunderstanding, and these cases are settled privately with a minimum of trouble. One angle of the situation concerns the contract. These contracts, furnished by the University, have found their way to the hands of landladies of unapproved rooming houses. Each year the committee inspects and lists approved houses for the benefit of the students, but many students, in spite of the efforts of rooming agencies, get into unapproved houses. Contracts signed by students living in unapproved houses are considered strictly legal by the committee. The list of inspected and approved houses is revised every year. Students living in unapproved houses, if they request the committee to do so, may have these houses inspected, but contracts they sign with landladies of such houses cannot be broken merely because the house is not on the approved list. The members of the committee are Charles E. Cornell, chairman; Lieut. Theodore H. Twesten, University proctor, and George C. Butler '28, chairman of the Freshman Advisory Committee. 56 CORNELL ALUMNI NEWS Published for the Alumni Corporation of Cornell University bv the Cornell Alumni News Publishing Corporation.

ITHACA, N.Y., OCTOBER 27,1927 PAYING THE SHOT E question whether or not CorI nell is to have a band seems to have been definitely settled by the producing of a band. Colonel Beacham has provided a band that showed Saturday that it can play adequately, is attractively uniformed, and is permanently established under proper management. How to pay the shot is another problem. The benefit dance held last Friday goes part of the way toward getting the band established. Three thousand undergraduates, townspeople, and early visitors showed approval of the idea by buying tickets to the dance and dancing. The dance is over, but the crafty Colonel has plenty of tickets and knows where he can get more. If the desire for a properly supported band is as fervent as it seems to be, there will be many alumni who will appreciate the opportunity of buying a ticket or tickets for last Friday's dance. They were four dollars each. Address Colonel Joseph W. Beacham, Jr., Drill Hall, Ithaca, New York. This suggestion is offered without consulting him.

HOWARD RETIRES The retirement of Leland Ossian Howard }yj as active chief of the Bureau of Entomology of the United States Department of Agriculture, has been announced. Dr. Howard became head of the Bureau in 1894. He will devote himself to research work in the department when his duties are assumed by Dr. C. L. Martlatt, chairman of the Federal Horticultural Board. After obtaining his B.S. degree, Dr. Howard studied for the master's degree, granted by Cornell in 1883. He became a doctor of philosophy at Georgetown University in 1896, and since he has been awarded a number of honorary degrees. He served as assistant entomologist in the Bureau at Washington from 1878 until his appointment as chief. He has served on many national committees, and he is a senior surgeon in the reserve of the United States Public Health Service. He has held important posts in many scientific organizations, including international congresses, and he is the author of many definitive works on entomology and related subjects. Honor Professor Woodruff Law Association Pays Tribute to Beloved Teacher Who Retires—Judge Hiscock President Tribute of honor to Prof. Edwin Hamlin Woodruff '88, member of the first class to graduate from the Law School, was paid last Saturday by members of the Cornell Law Association in annual meeting here. Professor Woodruff becomes emeritus professor this week. The speakers, who took the occasion to pay honor to Professor Woodruff, were President Farrand, Dean Charles K. Burdick, Col. Henry W. Sackett '75, Supreme Court Justice James O'Malley '01, and Supreme Court Justice George McCann '88, a classmate of Professor Woodruff. Judge Frank H. Hiscock '75 was elected president of the Association, succeeding William L. Ransom '05, and Prof. Horace E. Whiteside of the Law School Faculty was re-eclected secretary-treasurer. The following regional vice-presidents were chosen: James B. Kinne '02, Seattle, Wash.; James P. Harrold '93, Chicago; Edwin J. Marshall '95, Toledo; Carlos Lazo '18, Havana; Justice George McCann '88, Elmira; Percy W. Phillips '15, Washington, D. C ; Oley D. Roats '06, Springfield, Mass.; Paul O. Overton Όo, Los Angeles; Lewis I. Gulick '04, Buffalo; Christopher W. Wilson Όo, Brooklyn; Alfred Huger '03, Charleston, S. C. Judges Hiscock, Ransom and Neal D. Becker '05 were named to the executive committee. After graduation, Woodruff remained for two years at Cornell to teach English, in the meantime being admitted to the practice of law. He then spent a year in Florence, Italy, as librarian of the Willard Fiske Library before accepting, in 1891, the position of librarian at Stanford. Two years later he was appointed acting professor of law at the Western University. He came back to his alma mater in 1896 as professor of law, beginning a term of active teaching that ends this week with his elevation, by action of the Trustees, to the post of professor emeritus. In 1914 Professor Woodruff began a two-year term as acting dean of the Law School, at the close of which he was appointed dean, a position he held for five years. In 1926, he was granted a leave of absence. The Law Association, of which Professor Woodruff has long been an active and valued member, now has an enrollment of 811, an increase in the past year of 138. Nine annual scholarships have been obtained for law students, and a new edition of the Cornell Law List has been issued. Professor Woodruff's specialties in the field of law include contracts, domestic relations, and insurance. He has published "Cases on Domestic Relations," "Cases on Insurance," and "Cases on Quasi-Contract." With the late Ernest CORNELL ALUMNI NEWS 57 W. Huffcut '88, also a member of thefirst Law School class, he collaborated on "Cases on Contract." He has also written an "Introduction to the Study of Law." SPORT STUFF The Princeton-Cornell game turned out to be a goodact. The management tenders its grateful acknowledgments to theweather, the colorful bands, some extra-special autumnal foliage, the courteous and frieildly crowd, and tothose courageous teams that battled through the afteroon. Princeton won and deserved to win. But it would not have taken one little mustard seed in the scales to have turned the thing the other way. Neither the most psychic Princetonian nor the most fluttering Cornell man felt sure ofanything until the sun was well back of Connecticut Hill. When these two colleges last played football the present undergraduates thereof were in swaddling clothes—or had not been born. Nevertheless the oldsters could detect the same happy spirit in the game of 1927 that used to surround the contests ofthe early days. While the game was on, the game was everything, but before and after everyone concentrated on making it a good party—which itwas. The Princeton-Cornell game of 1928 will be played on October 27 at the Palmer Stadium and points adjacent. The line forms on the left. I have my room engaged right now. And would to Godthat the 268 Foolish Virgins who during the last few days have been calling up at midnight on the false assumption that I'm the night clerk would get busy at once or else make up their minds to buy pup tents and sleeping bags when next the Bridegroom cometh! R. B. WHITE TABLET ERECTED The memorial to Dr. Andrew Dickson White, first president of Cornell, which has taken its place on the walls of Sage Chapel is of French marble, carved and adorned with small shields and figures as 9 miniature cathedral and reads: "In memory of Andrew Dickson White, the ideal citizen. Heserved his State, his country, and mankind, with single-minded devotion, as senator, as ambassador, as police commissioner, in Russia, inGermany, at The Hague. But above all honors by him obtained, he valued most his part in thefoundation of Cornell University. In that institution as fostering mother of citizenship, he realized the dreams ofhis earliest manhood, and among the last wishes, byhim expressed, was that he should be remembered asthe originator of her educational policies, her broad intellectual outlook, hernonsectarian spirit, and her even-handed justice to men and women alike." The Week on the Campus THE WEEK ON THE CAMPUS was a week of preparation, material and spiritual, for the Princeton game. Every morning thousands of anxious eyes scanned the heavens, not regarding the weather as a thing-in-itself, but as a forecast of the conditions of the game. Yet the weather was interesting in itself to us country folk who must live on intimate terms with it. 4.11 inchesof rain fell from Monday to Thursday; the water in the creeks was high and swift and brown and filled with black branches and debris. The weather cleared nicely by Saturday, and our visitors had a chance to see the gorges at their best, with water rolling solid over Triphammer, transparent for several feet below the crest, before it shredded into white and was lost in a cloud of rising spray. THE PBINCETON GAME itself receives ample attention on other pages. The Crescent was a memorable sight; the crowd was probably the largest ever assembled in one place hereabouts since the Battle of Gettysburg. The blue-gray tone of this year's overcoatings blended with raccoon brown to provide a background for the scarlet coats and white Sam Brown belts of the new Band. And speaking of the Band, its new brilliance of costuming operated on it exactly as was exclusively predicted in this column last week. Led by a magnificent drummajor in a tall white shako, it marched and played with a snap andswagger that bodes ill for pacifists in thenext war. THE MEMORIAL SERVICE for Louis Agassiz Fuertes '97 will beheld in Willard Straight on the afternoon of Sunday, October 30. It is set on that date largely in order that many of his old friends who return to the alumni homecoming may be present. Louis Fuertes was an activemember of the Board of Managers of Willard Straight until the day of his death. The work of his spirit is manifest in the lives of all of us here today. He was a man who made hisown memorials. Louis FUERTES'S paintings and drawings were put on exhibition in Memorial Hall of Willard Straight last Saturday, and will remain there until Monday, October 31. This is a unique opportunity; you must see this exhibition even ifyou miss the Columbia game. Louis Fuertes was, in thegeneral opinion of experts, the greatest bird painter of our times. This assembling of his work impresses one again with his rare union of artistic power and scientific exactness and erudition. The pictures areall for sale. THE MORSE HALL gallery, under the direction of Professor William H. Schuchardt '95, has opened with its first exhibition for the year. It displays the minor arts of India, Chinese painting, and Japanese prints. Some uncommonly interesting examples have been obtained through the courtesy of the IndiaCommerce Company, the Sogani Company, and the Long Sang Ti Company. Especially noteworthy aretwenty-eight rare Japanese prints, loaned by Howard Mansfield of New York, one of thedirectors of the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Supplementing this exhibit three lectures will begiven, one byH. K. Rakhit of Calcutta on "The Art of India," on October 28, and one by Dayn Doon on "The Art of China" on November 4. The enterprise of Professor Schuchardt in installing these exhibits and in elucidating them with the aid of visiting lecturers cannot be too highly commended. THE PRIDE OF DETROIT, lately visible over Europe, Asia, and several oceans, appeared in the skies above Ithaca last Wednesday. It hovered about for a time and then settled down on the ThomasMorse landing field, and Messrs. Brock and Schlee stepped out. Mr. Brock recalled that he was employed by the Thomas-Morse Aircraft Company when aviation fir^t came to public notice, and that here he learned tobe a pilot, spending a good deal of his time testing planes. He told of a very amusing incident, when he dida spectacular nose dive into the icy waters of Cayuga Lake. He said it was a very amusing incident, and everyone laughed heartily at the idea of his discomfiture. SPEAKING OP AMUSING incidents in the air, there was a flying circus here last week, taking people up for short hops for a small fee. John W. Fitzgerald '26, instructor in the Mechanical Engineering Laboratory, and Robert P. Ludlum '30 went up in one of the planes. When it had risen about seventy-five feet it developed motor trouble and crashed in a swamp, badly damaging the wings and the fuselage. Fitzgerald and Ludlum were very angry, as they had to pay for a full-length ride. They walked back to the flying field and demanded that they be given a good high hopor their money back. They were given an unusually long and high trip, which they pronounced fully satisfactory. FRANCHOT TONE '27, after his triumphs on the stage of Willard Straight, is now treading the boards of Broadway. (Broadway is assumed to include Commerce Street.) He has a part in "The Belt," now being produced at the New Playwrights' Theatre. EDWARD K. CAMPBELL '23, now a graduate student anda teacher in Cascadilla School, has just been awarded a scholarship by the American Foundation for the Blind. This is one of fifteen scholarships awarded to sightless students throughout the country. Campbell will continue his studies here for anadvanced degree in government. M. G. B. 58 CORNELL ALUMNI NEWS FOREST HOMERS MILLS PASS OUT The purchase bythe University of the Bool furniture factory and mill atForest Home to make way for construction of a filtration plant and water supply system for the Campus did not bring extinction to the mill, one of the last survivors of the many that dotted the banks ofFall Creek in the past century. The Bool factory equipment has been purchased by a former employe, L. E. Lucas, who also takes over some of the Bool contracts. The company has done much work for the University. I t furnished the cabinet work in the Baker Laboratory of Chemistry and other wood work in Sage Chapel, Fernow Hall, and many ofthe fraternity houses. The mill will berelocated at Dryden. Its departure from Forest Home calls to mind the disappearance of other mills, among them a tannery, a cider mill, saw mill, and a flour mill. In Civil War times a cannonball factory was operated on the banks ofFall Creek near Forest Home. BOOKS Alfred E. Smith Alfred E. Smith: a Critical Study. By Henry F. Pringle '19. With a Portrait Frontispiece by Wilfred Jones. New York. Macy-Masius. 1927. 23.7 xcm., pp. 402. Price, $3 5° Pringle has given us a well written and thoughtful study of a man who will be very much in the public eye for some months to come—and it may be, quite a good deal longer. In any case this is no merefly-by-nightpre-campaign biography it has enduring value as a portrait of a Tammany politician who has proved himself to be something besides. The author makes no secret of the fact that hewould be glad to see Governor Smith move on to Washington as a result of the people's action next year; but heis a wholly unauthorized and independent observer and critic. Mr. Smith does not appear as a wholly faultless person; yet his faults are, so to speak, of a minor order, something like the faults Abraham Lincoln may have possessed inthe days before the Lincoln myth had developed. Reading Pringle's book will make some of us more ardent and some others more content at least to see Al in the White House. But Pringle isno special pleader. His cards are allon the table, orSQ, at least, it appears. The two great obstacles, of course, in the way of a landslide for Governor Smith are his wetness and his membership in the Roman Catholic Church. Pringle goes into these matters at great length and his chapters will be read with great interest by all classes of voters. Probably his being a wet will do Smith's candidacy more harm than his adherence to the Old Religion. The passing of the Referendum Act in 1926 "exploded the nonsensical theory that the believers in light wines and beer would be satisfied with a 2.75 per cent alcoholic content. No good beer could be made on that basis and no good wine . . . Smith can no longer claim, as his friends are doing for him, that he believes in the 2.75 maximum. He believes in a maximum, or so he is on record, to be determined in some unknown manner by the various States." This is the trouble. Bad as prohibition ispainted by its worst enemies, it is a tleast a definite program, and itisachieving results. The wets have yet to suggest a constructive program that comes anywhere near being acceptable to even a small number ofthe electorate. This is of course a purely personal view. On the other hand, and in favor of Smith's candidacy, it must be remembered that the President has little if any personal weight in the matter of forwarding or blocking prohibition. Wilson vetoed the Volstead Act, only to see it become a law over his head. Governor Smith's manly and honest attitude as to the duties of a Catholic citizen in public life has won thousands to his side. Really one would suppose that there might be far more danger to the country from a Unitarian administration; yet we emerged from, the nightmare of the Taft regime with most of the china still intact. Surely after Mr. Smith's reply to Mr. Marshall there can be no great danger in trying just for once a member of the Church of Rome. Nevertheless we do not understand the last sentence of Pringle's discussion: "The Protestant Church must also plead guilty to violating the thesis thatthe Church and State are ever separate in their jurisdiction." What, where,and when is "the Protestant Church?" We hold no brief for Protestantism, whose sins are many; but we think this statement is loose and untrue. Even if there can be said by some stroke ofthe imagination to be a Protestant Church, when has it taken collective action that could be thus described? Surely the efforts of a few fundamentalists to pass anti-evolution laws do not come within this range; nor does the maintaining by one branch of the church of a temperance board at Washington. But this is a slight matter. Pringle's book will doubtless have a wide hearing, as it deserves. And it will help some, perhaps, to make up their minds next year.

Personal hits were scored by Jeannette Sweedler '30, and Joseph P. Binns '28. 60 C O R N E L L A L U M N I N E W S Princeton Wins {Continued from Page 53) first downs in rapid succession, but,with Princeton scratching at Cornell's twentyyard line, the Cornell defense stiffened and held. Lowry tried a field goal but failed. Cornell could not get a chance, however, and ina few moments, thanks torushes by Wittmer anda forward pass from Lowry to Lawler, Princeton was on Cornell's fifteen-yard line. Anderson smeared the first attempt through the line. Kneen and Wickham sat on the second. Two attempts at forward passes were broken up by Wickham and Cornell again took the ball. But Cornell still could not gain. And when Balderston punted he only succeeded ingetting the ball away. To make matters worse, the ball took a bad bounce and the punt amounted to only ten yards. Princeton had the ball on Cornell's twentyfive-yard line. Two fast punches and Wittmer had a first down. Two more and he had another. Again within the five-yard line, Cornell held, but finally Lowry went over for a touchdown. Wittmer kicked the goal and Princeton went into the lead, 14 to 10. The first half ended with Cornell trying a variation of the lateral pass, a short forward behind the line of scrimmage from Hoekelman to Beck. It gained nearly twenty yards andit was destined to gain many more, but not enough to make a difference in the score. As the second period was largely Princeton's, the third was quite Cornell's. Dobie's pupils threw nine passes, six forwards, and three laterals, and made seven of them good. Theeighth was knocked down on the two-yard line by Wittmer, and made all the difference in the world. The ninth was intercepted on thefifteenyard line by Baruch, butthe interception came on the fourth down and only deprived Princeton of five valuable yards. Third Period The Cornell kick-off went along the ground to Princeton's fifteen-yard line and Lowry ran it back twenty yards. Lowry made a short kick out of bounds at Cornell's forty-two-yard line. On a straight buck disguised as a criss-cross, Hoekelman made two yards. Lawler blocked Balderston's kick and Blake recovered. It was Princeton's ball on Cornell's thirty-five-yard line. Sinclair intercepted a forward pass, but dropped the ball, and the pigskin went back to Princeton. Lowry tried a forward pass which was grounded. It was Cornell's ball on downs on its thirty-five-yard line. Beck skipped around right end for four yards and Wittmer threw him. Balderston lan nine yards onkick formation. Beck made the most exciting play of the game to that point, when he took a short lateral pass, weaved through the Princeton play, veered off to the left, and was hauled down from behind by Wittmer after he had stepped thirty-five yards. He carried the ball to Princeton's twentyfive-yard line. Aforward pass to Sinclair added five yards. Another pass gained only a yard. Hoekelman on the next play took aforward pass to Princeton's ten-yard line. Beck circled around right endfor four yards. On the next attempt at anend run Howe threw Beck for a loss of two yards. At this point Cornell cut loose another forward pass, Balderston to Hoekelman, and it gained about four yards. Buttwo more failed and Princeton gottheball on downs. Princeton's punt from behind the goal line wascaught by Beck on Princeton's thirty-four-yard line. Sinclair found a hole in Princeton's left wing and slammed through it for six yards. Hoekelman's forward pass was intercepted and it was Princeton's ball on the sixteen-yard line. Cornell's defense threw Princeton back three times and Baruch had to punt. He kicked to Princeton's forty-three-yard line. The third period ended with the fighting in mid-field. Starting the fourth quarter, Wittmer intercepted a forward pass on Princeton's twenty-six-yard line. By hard work Princeton made a first down on its own thirty-six-yard line. A spectacular forward pass by Baruch to Moeser gained twenty yards. Wittmer and Baruch slipped in aforward pass which took the ball to Cornell's seven-yard line. Onthe second down on a reverse play Miles went through left tackle to a touchdown and Baruch kicked the goal. In the closing moments of the game substitutes were run in in abundance. A long Cornell punt transferred thescene of activities to Princeton's thirteen-yard line. The Tigers jammed through to a first down on their twenty-five-yard line. Wittmer came around right end and ran to Cornell's fifty-two-yard line. Princeton had the ball on Cornell's forty-seven-yard line when the game ended.

Tigers Win at Soccer The Tigers took more than a football victory back to the Princeton campus over the week-end. The Red and White soccer eleven last Friday lost a close contest to the Tiger booters, when Packard, Princeton center, broke a 1-1 tie inthe closing minutes of play with a fine shot into thenet. The final score was 2 to1. Packard, who made the All-Eastern soccer team last fall as forward, also accounted for Princeton's first goal early in the second quarter, after Kohn, Cornell center, had scored forthe Red and White. Allen at goal for Cornell played a remarkable defensive game, aided by Hsu and Degenhardt, backs. Cornell's offensive did not have the aggressiveness to buck the Tiger defense, while Princeton took advantage of the breaks in following the ball. To Row Syracuse Cornell and Syracuse will meet in a dual regatta on Lake Cayuga on Spring Day, May26, the first dual meeting of the crews in twenty-five years. The dual regatta will be the only home event for the Red and White crews in 1928. Cornell wUl open the rowing season on May 5, meeting the eights of Harvard and M. I. T. on Charles River at Cambridge. Two weeks later at New Haven, the annual triangular race among Yale, Princeton, and Cornell will be rowed. Then will come the Spring Day regatta. The Intercollegiate Regatta, in which the crews of Syracuse and Cornell have been participating for thirty years, will be held at Poughkeepsie on June 24, 1928. The last varsity race at Poughkeepsie produced a close fight between the Central New York State crews for fourth place, Cornell winning. The Orange crew last appeared onLake Cayuga in 1920,when it defeated the entries of Cornell, Columbia, and Pennsylvania in the regatta of the Intercollegiate Rowing Association, the only year in which Ithaca played host for the event. REGISTRATION for the elections has been unusually light. Election Day itself will pass completely unregarded. There is no one to vote for except the county clerk. In the city, Republicans and Democrats have united to nominate for the mayoralty Dr. Fred B. Howe, the reigning Lord Mayor, andfor city judge Daniel Crowley '07.
