September 22, 1927. MAROON AND GOLD Page Three AL-U-M-N-I n-o-t-e-s POPULAR ALUMNUS AND FORMER STUDENT WED We quote the following from the Buvlington News of September 16: ‘‘The following announcements were received tod.ny: ‘Mr. and Mrs. Charles W. Jo'hnson announce the marriage of their daugh ter, Beulah Belle, to Mr. Paul Braxton, oil Monday, August 8, 1927, Danbury, N. C. At home, after September 12, Mt. Olive, N. C.’ ‘The marriage is of much interest to the many friends of both of these young people in the Snow Camp sec tion and throughout the county. ‘Mr. Braxton, the son of Mr. and Mrs. E. J. Braxton, was graduated from Elon College this year, and will teach in Mt. Olive this winter. He is a most excellent young man. His bride is also from the Snow Camp section, and has taught the past three years. She is very popular with a large circle of young friends, and is a talented aiid attractive young woman.’ ” These young people are most pleas antly remembered indeed on the Elon campus. Members of the Class of ’29 will recall Mrs. Braxton as their ef ficient secretary in their Freshman year. Mr. Braxton is well known to those familiar w^ith North Carolina col- "lege baseball history. As captain of Elon’s 3 927 baseball team, he led the Maroon and Gold squad almost to the state championship honors, w^hile this summer he helped Siler City win the amateur championship of eastern North Carolina. The Maroon and Gold ex tends to them its heartiest congratula tions. ALUMNI NOTES ing good in the teaching profession. However, that is no more than is ex pected of a man of his calibre. Mr. D. L.

(Contributed) Elon College students, now is the time to show the spirit that is going to help carry old Elon on to victories in football this fall. As students of this institution, let’s get behind our college and our teams and show a spirit equal to that found anywhere. We can in still such a spirit several ways. Come out to the pep meetings; help the cheer leaders teach the new students the yells; contribute any new yell you have; talk things up; be enthusiastic over our prospects. Make yourself one of the many that will be behind Elon’s teams this year. Be a sport; go out to the games; be there to cheer the team. Show such a spirit on the campus and in the class room as well. Prove to your fellow-students that you have the right attitude toward everything. Come on, let’s show the world we have that true college spirit. What say?

Wysong’s Men’s Shop Next Door to Ausley Barber Shop BURLINGTON, NORTH CAROLINA Coach Walker is hard at work trying to get his team in shape for the open ing tilt with the N. C. State Wolfpaek at Riddick field September 23. The team as a whole is far from the con dition that they should be for the first game. Many of the men are lacking in experience, also practice has been slowed up considerably on account of the excessive heat and rain. It seems that an unusual number of the squad are suffering from “charley-horses,” and other injuries. But it is believed that if we can get a little football weather for the remaining praeticee, a formidable team will be placed on the field against State. Cook, Yorkievti, and Loessi are among the late arrivals that are look ing like players with plenty of ability. It would be impossible to indicate the first team at this time. The men that are showing up fairly well at the different positions at present are: Ends, Zigler. Branner, Waggoner, Whitley, and Harrington; tackles, Capt. Jones, Smith, Efird, and Wilson; guards, Foster, Yorkievitz, Johnson, and Cox; and centers. Hardy, and McCauley; halfbacks, Jones, Coggins, Loessi, F. Alexander, and H. Alexander; fullbacks, Daniels, Harmon, and Cook; qua,rters. Bock and Walker.

She will be quite an asset to our Expression department this year. A recent Sunday survey of forty churches in Washington, D. C„ showed 7,000 persons present. In forty theaters on the same day 50,000 persons were found.—Selected. For Young Men To Whom Life Is An Adventure College men have their own ideas about clothes. We don’t try to improve on these ideas. “Modify” them or “modernize” them. We give them exactly what they want in their apparel wants. Therefore, for this Fall season, we are showing a collec tion of Young Men's Suits, Over-Coats, Hats, and Men’s Fixrnishings, that for size and quality is unsurpassed in this section. Even in the bigger towns of the state few clothing stores show a wider or more stylish selection than ours. The prices, too, owing to our less expenses, are most reasonable. So much so that we are enabled to offer you handsome New Fall Suits, splendidly tailored.
