We know that you \'’’ll aid in meeting this war ne cessity. Mrs. Chrysler wishes to express her appreciation of the splendid co operation which has alreadly been given. The Woman's College at Greens boro has begun a student project in the maintenance of gi-ounds and res idences. It is probable that Colleges all over the country will find it es sential to do something of a similar nature for the duration of tlie war. Until further notice, be careful not to create any unnecessary work in keeping the campus in ship-shape. At a later date, we may liave to ask for some kind of student organization to help out in the emergency. DR, JOHNSON S ENTERTAIN FOR NEW MEMBERS The Drctor Johnson's Literary So ciety entertained its two new mem bers, Dwight Kernodle and Don fjillcr, with a weiner roast and song program Wednesday night, Septem= ber 27. The scene of the festivity was the Girl Scout cabin noith of the E!on Camus.

Eut thanks to the fine play of an experienced forward- wall of the Florites. they were held ‘scoreless. At the beginning of th? third quarter Burlint^ton again went nn (he 'nnrch. At the r'art of t’.it foin-:!i quaitcr the Speed Demons of Elon b?gan vjhat proved a final and decisive thrust irto scoring territory Due to the fine line nlr.y of Bob Ga'-kins “Bunk” Sulton. and Wendall Ilo'vrtrd and tlie fine haokfield v,'ork of Fred Regifter. who intercepted a oass they were held. The ball was then fum bled but recovered by the Freshmen in the last 59 seconds. The boys be gan to look worried, Init two short, chest-high passes over the line gained ten yards. The captain called, the boys limped back to hear their final instructions There was only 40 seconds to play and the two teams v.’ere deadlocked in a scoreless tie. The boys walked back to the line; the center was over the ball; the ball was snapped. South-' erland juggled the ball momentarily and was forced to back-track his field as the defenre rushed in. He was off balance as he threw the leather spear, I but the excellent blocking of Davis enabled him to heave a long spirling pass into the end zone. Steed pulled out of his position at left end and cut wide in the end zone to meet the on coming pig-skin for the deciding tally. The extra point v;as set up for a placement but the center cot off a bad pass. Davis threw a long pass into the arms of Steed, but the referee ruled the pass out of bounds. r MUST r>E MAILED r,Y OCT. 15 DAY STUDENTS ORG.^NIZATION ACTIVE C!vr -rrL r^oroA'i I.-'.-.'•rnt • .n cn There are approvimately 125 reg ular day students and seventy-five special day students v.’lio help com pose the student body of Elon Col lege.
