Officers Chosen Sunday Night for Next
Year and Y. M. C. A. Looks
Forward to Good Year.
T]ie Soplumiore class Tuesdav
to elect the officers wlio are to
guide ils di'Stiny tlivouglj tlie next
school session. The meeting wns feii
tured l\v the usual live, iuterest that ac
companies jneetiiigs of the class of
1P27.
Tho usual ])V(/i-edurc‘ was followed,
and till’ usual were tilled, except
that two new ones were ailded. These
were associate editor and associate
business luauager of the Pliipsicli. The
class is the tirst class to liave the oppov-
tunity to furnish these offifevs and is
highly grateful i‘oi‘ the [irivilege anrl
c^i]»ortunity.
The following officers Avere elected:
E. W. Anman, president; M. G. Stanley,
vice president; Katlileen Paschall, sec
retary; Allen Walker, treasurer; S. D.
AVoodie, athletic manager; .T. E. Watts,
anl J. I). Gorrell, Pliipsicli associates;
E. P. McLeod, A. B. Fogleman, and H.
■Richardson, student senators.
With the election of- these cfficers the
fact was clearly brought, home to every j
member of the class that they are now
half way , toward the goal which two
vears ago seeuied so far down the beat
en path of learning. Tt is with reluc
tance t^at we dig into the two yeara
just gor» and try to find what has Iken
acconiplished'anO*lifts failed to be
accomplisl\ed. ’But that is the job of
the hi'torian. For us it is sufficient to
loo'k back and say that we are proud of
our cb'"'. ])ecause it has the honor of
being T)ie first class to enter Elon after
the fire, which marked the end of the
old and the beginning of the new. We
are proud of our class because during
our first days at our beloved alma mater
we were striA'ing against the difficulty
of going to school in partially com
pleted buildings. Indeed we had the
honor of seeing tlio first shovel of dirt
taken from under the Duke Science
buildins'. Tn view of the fact that eo’u*
ditiona were as they were at the very
beginning of our school career makes us
take cognizance of the fact that we
were quick to assimilate that * ‘ Spin'
of Elon” which makes a person ovei-
Iffok the difficulties over which he is
traveling.
Puring onr first year we furnished-
two men for Varsity football, two foe
.A'arsity basketball, and several for
baseball. We won the class basketball
championship, and won the inter-class
debate. This year we again won the
class debate and the class has shown a
general interest in all phases of student
life.
With this behind us we hope to make
our pathway bright over ttie last half
of the journey.
The Y. JM. (’. A. met Snnday evening
in the chajiel for the purpose of elect
ing oJIicers for next year. L. Y. Wat
son, the outgoing president presided
over the ineeting. A good number of
the students were present and much in
terest was shewn in the election of the
officers who are to guide the destiny of
the y. 'SI. C. A. next year. During the
nu^eting Y. M. (\ A. work in general
j was discussed. During this discussion
it was brought out that during the jiast
tv.'O years the “Y’’ h*as been laboring
under diffienlties, having a chance to
meet only eveiw third Sunday. It wai-
also bro'uglit out that next year there
would be a jdace provided for regular
“Y’- v>'ork and all indications are that
inuyh good work will be aceom]>lished.
The following officers Avere elected:
F. 1\ Ballard, President; H. Richnnl-
■^.'.n./Vice President; ,T. E. Corbitt, SeC'
retary; C. E. Newman, Chairman of the
Program Committee; B. L. Green. Chair
man of the jMeiubership Committee; J.
E. Watts, ^Maroon and Gold Pteporter.
All of these offcers are well known te
the student bo'dy, and have demon
strated their ability to hold the offices,
which the students have seen fit to
award them. It will be noticed tha.
one new office was ailded this time, tin
MariKHi and Gold reporter. This changt
was made by vote of the members. Dui
ing the discussioii that preceded th •
>dection the fact was brought out that
in the pa,st the write-ups of the meet
ings that have appeared in the pape:»
have been altogether tod iusuffi.cien:.
It was decided that a reporter, shoub'
be elected, whose duty it would be io
hand in a write-up of the regular roii
tine of the meetings and also to give
a gist of the I'sson that is brought out
in the nieeti'\y.'. This should serve the
dnal pnrpfc'.e increasing the intere.U
in Y. M. C. A. and of perhaps carryin-
the message of tl '' 1 '''n to those w'lu^
were not there.

Students and Faculty will take notice
of the following:
1. All |*xa)ninations must be taken
in the regular order except where per
mission is given by tlie Pean of the Col
lege to' change the order. This may be
done only in case of where a professo-
has more than two divisions iii the same
subject. In this case the Dean may
give perinis.sion for any division to t>c
moved to' another time; but ^lo permis
sion can be given if it causes a conflict
with another examination.
IT. Xo jirofessor or student may ar
range any examination before the time

TV. No student ^who- has taken the
class work on any subject is permitted
to leave off taking the examination
unless lie is excused by the Dean of the
College, who must also notify the pro
fessors in charge o'f the student’s work
The Sunday mo'rning session of-Su.'
ly School proved to be very interest
ing, due to the fact that officials for
next year’s work were elected. This
election was somewhat delayed on ac
count of the fact that tho student bo^ly
had not been coming to the opening ex
ercises, in crowds large enough to war
rant ta,king such action. It has been i
general policy for quite a number of
vears to' have the Sunday School oftice:=
-filled by students, and it has proved to
be a very successful plan. This plan
serves a dnal purpose in creating mor;'
interest in the Sunday School and in
training students to take active parts
in the Sunday School work of their
home churches.
: The follo'wing officers w'ere elected to
fill the vacr.neies that will occur next
year: O. C. White, Supt.; F. T). Bal
lard, Asst. Supt.; -Tudith Black, Secre
tary; :^I. C. Stanley, Choirister: Mary
Ad'die Wiiite. l^ianist, with Mary Stout
as her assistant. These officers were
well chosen and are thoroughly capable
of tilling their offices. JTr. ^^hite has
sewed as assistant this year and has
alwavs evidenced an active interest in
such activities. Mr. Ballard has also
taken a very active interest in student
activities and has also had a go'od bit
of experience in this kind of work.
Miss Black, a • member of next year’s
Junior class, is well laiown among the
students and is capable of making one
of the best secretaries the Sunday
School lias ever had. :M:r. Stanley is
very ■'veil known to the students as a
songster and we are confident that he
was the man for the jdace that was
given him. Misses White and Stoul
are botli students of the i.iaiio depart
ment and they have both been very ac-
ti\'C in student life since entering
school.
With these new ofiicers tho Sunday
School gives promise 6.f having its most
successful vear in 1923-20.
Play Represents Some of the Best
Work Done by the Depart
ment this Year.
MISS SCULLY DIRECTS
A :^rid-sumnier Night's X)reani, one of
Shakespeare’s most popular and delight
ful comedies was presented in the
Whitley Auditorium by the Expression
Department on tho evening of April ;.n.
The Expression Dei)artnient of t-'C Col
lege did itself great credit in so eO-’ee-
tively staging and presenting thi' fan.-
ous comedy. The audience was. laige
and appreciative, the stage, one o: Iho
linest and best equipped in any College
auditorium in this entire section of the
country, was fittingly ornamented to
harmonize with the highly romantic
character ol‘ the play, and the acting
and the interpretation of the various
characters and situations tliroufhout
the play were so well done that one
scarcely realized that it was not a
group of professionals instead of ama
teurs, who were presenting this elastic
drama.
The cast of characters was as follows:
Thesfus, Duke of Athens..Ituth Klapp
Lysander, in love with Hermia'
J. C. Latham
Demetrius, his rival ....I’aul MeXeil!
Egeus, -father of Hermia
Mamie Sockwell
Pliilostrate, Master of the T?evels
Lillie rioTne
Xick Bottom, the AVeaver
G. L. William!-
Quince, the Cnrpenter

Popular Member of Next Year’s Senior
Class is Chosen Presidfent of
Student Senate.
R. S. Rainey, principal of the high
school at Biscoe, visited the Hill Sun
day arid brought a ivumber of his senior
boys with him. We are glad to have
our alumni visit us at any time and
still more s» when the;
prospective students.
The Psiphelian Literary So'ciety held
its annual essayist contest last W'ed-
nesday evening, in the college ch.apcl,
and Miss Arline Lindsay was awarded
the medal for having the best essay.
This is the last of the society contests
to be held this year and it proved to be
one of the most interesting.
There were five speakers, who entered
the’contest and it was really one of the
closest contests that has been held dur-
[ the year. Xo one in the audience t
seemed to have any idea who had won |
before the judges decision w’as rendered.
Tlie judges for the occasion were Miss
Louise Savage, Prof. S. A. Bennett and
Prof. W. J/ Gotten. Miss Kate Strader
presiled and gave the welcome address.
The speakers and their subjects were
as follows: Ruby Braxton, '“The Girl
of Today^’j Lyde Bingham, “Idols and
Ideals”; Arline Lindsay, “A Journey
Through Fairyland”; Suemall Alcorn,
“Highw'ays of N. C.”; Marie Nobles,
“Relation of Good Roads to Commun
ity I)e\'elopment. ”
On Tuesday morning after chapel the
yoaing men of the student body met to
confer the highest honor they are cap
able of bestowing ou a man, that of
president of the student senate. TJiis
office carries with it a lot of responsi
bility, and is one o‘f the highest honors
a man can receive during his college
career. Tins year the students hav^
seen fit to elect W. A. Lindley to this
position. Mr. Lindley, a member of the
present Junior class, has served one
vear on the student senate, has x>layed
shortstop on the baseball team foT three
years and throughout his three years at
Elon has steadily been gaining the place
in the esteem of his schoolmates that
led to his election.
The retiring president, R. W. I'tley,
in a short speech made just after the
election, spoke of the co-ox^eration tlir.
students had given him this year and
told them that he looked forward to a
greater year next school term.
Xext year’s senate is as follows, ex
cepting the senators from the class of
’26 and ’29, who' have not yet been
elected: Clarence Slaughter, ’28; C. P.
Thompson, ’28; E. P. McLeod, ’27; A.
B. Fogleman, ’27; and H. Richardson,^
’27.
