For the past,year, the adminis tration, faculty, staff and stud ent Taody have joined in a searcli ing. cooperative study of the part Hampton must play in>'today’s world. To this end, President Malcolm S. MftcLean announced that Hampton would search, the na- tiHi for the best, most able stu dent body and faculty. /Enroll ment at the school will be limited to those entering students who show definite “talents” in some specific field. Academic ability is iu>t the only criteria as these youi^ people must have definite shop skills, traits of leadership or artistic inclination^.

Anyone who has had anything to« do with a drunkard—or a day-after- day "iocial drink er”—knows that he's as full of ex cuses as he is of rum. The liquor traf fic is that way too, the W.C.T.U. points out When a business means money In a maa’s pocket, he’ll find excuses, whether it’s tor liquor, slot machines, or naughty pictures. Mr. Ordinary Citizen usually de cides though that excuses ar^’t worth much when they are stacked up against the considered verdict ot experts, whose only interest is man kind’s betterment and not profits. Morgan Cloud, a captain ot the medical corps of the U. S. Army, published a book in 1934 to give an objective report on liquqr. He quot ed eminent opinion as follows: DR. CHAllL^S W. MAYO: The otUy le^itimat^ use of alcohol is in the arts and sciences. MARSHAL JOFFRE: Alcohol, by diminishing the moral and ma terial strength of the army, is a crime against national defense in the fade of the enemy. DR. RICHARD C. CABOT: Medi cally and socially the case against alcohol is just as clear as the case against opium. DR. H0WA31D K KELLY: There is no disease in the world for ,^ich alcohol is a cure. It does undenia bly cause thou sands of cases o£ disease. HORSELY AND STURGE: Alco hol weakens the heart, lowers re sistance to dis ease. shortens life, impairs one's judgment, reduces one’s earning' power, is harmful even in the small est dose, delays and prevents diges tion, is a poison, has become obso lete as a remedy, kills everything that lives, preserves everything that is dead.

Often he would sit in a darken ed theatre during rehearsals and dispatch telegrams to individu* ais no farther away than the actors of the stai^e. ,One time, when he was ou| of town, he loosed a barrage'' of messages against Will Rogers, no heed. As the day wor#;m the teleg^rams increased in vol ume and warmth of language.
