FIGHTING INDIANS LEAVE TODAY FOR CAPITOL Gridders On Fighting Edge As Washington Game Nears Indian Squad Expects To Give Colonials A Tough Battle (From The Pioneer) The Catawba Indians will leave their reservation for the last time this season when they journey to the Capital City to face the George Washington Colonials on Saturday. The Indians have offered the Colonials rather tough opposition in their past few encounters, but the abundant reserve material of the home club was a little too much for Catawba. Three years ago, the Indians held them score less during the first half, but the continued substitution of fresh material proved a little too much for our gridders. However, they always went down fighting. The Colonials have been playing a great brand ol ball this year. They beat Elon 39-0, Wake Forest 13-12, University of Arkansas 13 6, and tied Mississippi 0-0. Rice was the only school to defeat them, and that was to the tune of 12-6. The Indians are not expected to go up there and send the Colonials down to another defeat—they themselves do not expect to trot off with a big game. But, you can bet your boots on this, the Indians are going to be fighting all the way and will give their best. Last year the lights and the rain got our boys. The wet oily pants of the Colonial back made it al most impossible for the Indian! tacklers to down the ball carrier, j Pritchard and Clark could not getj going on the soggy turf. The above are not alibi’s* but the truth, | and for proof of this statement just watch the boys go Saturday.

New Lighting Equipment Adds To Blue Masque Facilities _._ (From The Pioneer) The first Blue Masque major production, _The Truth about Blayds, will be greatly enhanced by the use of new, improved light ing equipment. A new portable switchboard with several new spot lights will be installed in time for the play. These new additional units will make possible many var ied and interesting effects. Spotlights, switches, and dim mers have been purchased from the leading -stage supply houses in the country. Two new 400 watt, fo cusing spot lights have been pur chased from a New York firm through the Independent Electric Supply Company of Charlotte. The outlets and switches have also been bought from the Charlotte firm. Four of the latest type rot ary dimmers have been ordered from Cleon Throckmorton Inc. of New York. This establishment has equipped many of the little theater stages and is recognized as specialists in this line. The Blue Masque has long been conscious of its deficiency in light ing equipment for its plays. The production of many interesting plays has been sacrificed because of the lack of facilities to obtain proper .lighting effects. Other plavs w have been handicapped because of unconvincing lighting effects. The installation of the new equipment will make possible a greater variety of plays and many new, interest ing, and convincing lighting ef fects. The new switchboard has been designed and executed by David Schnebly of the electrical staff of the Blue Masque. The board is an elaborated arrangement of switches. It has twelve outlets and three i rows of switches. The board has. a total capacity of 10,000 watts. | It has been built up. as a portable unit and can be used on any tours the dramatic organization may wish to make. A second unit will be built up with the four dimmers. The units may be used together or separately. Nearly every desired lighting ef fect will now be possible with the new equipment. The flexibility of its arrangement greatly increases the effectiveness of the equipment. Everything in stage lighting, from large flood lights to baby spots, has been fitted into one coordinate whole. With this equipment a scene of daylight intensity can be changed instantly, or gradually, into one of the soft glow of the evening moonlight. ; 7 . i .

Tribesmen Lead Conference Teams With Three Wins, No Losses Elon Trounces Bears; Tussle On December 5 Looms Decisive By Paul Caldwell in The Pioneer By virtue of their astounding 14-0 victory over the mighty men of Appalachian, the Catawba col lege Indians were way out front in the North State title race with three straight victories, but they must sjtill face Lenoir-Rhyne and Elon before the pennant can fly above the Tribe’s stronghold. Elon’s Christians bounced back into the limelight with a 38-0 vic tory over the crippled Lenoir Rhyne Bears as the Walker-forces celebrated their conference debut. They served notice that the championship race is still far from settled. And it appears as though the far-away game between the Indians and the Christians on De cember S will tell the tale. The conference classic in Salis bury last week between the Tribes men and the Rippers saw the na tion’s highest scorers completely fizzle before the hard-charging and hard-tackling Indians of Gordon Kirkland who saw his record of having been defeated by only one North State conference team in three years well-protected. It was termed an upset, but the Indians will tell you that they were never more confident of a victory. Led by Charley (Ole Joe) Clark, triple-threat half-back who personally gained 167 yards from scrimmage—more than six com plete backfields had gained in pre vious tilts with the Rippers, the Tribesman put on a grand exhibi tion of offensive and defensive power that bewildered the "wild men of the mountains” who had run amuck with the less promin ent teams of the south. The Rip pers never really got started. They played defensive ball throughout the entire game, and actually lost more ground than rney gained. The 175 pound line of the In dians stopped the Ripper backs in their tracks. With Bill Guy, No lan Reid, Jake Briggs, and Bud Nash setting the pace, the Indian linesmen did everything but throw the Rippers out of the lot. The real story of the Indians power can be summed up in the words of the re feree when he said, "Third down Appalachian and 42 yards to go.” There is no doubt what-so-ever that the superior eleven came out on top last week, and the students and townspeople point to Gordon Kirkland and his assistants as they say, "There’s the fellows that stop ped the Rippers.” But out of the din and uproar of sidewalk conver sations and post-mortems, one can say that the Rippers had two great linesmen in Hummie Adans, cent er, and Farthing, guard. And al though he failed to deliver offen sively against real competition, Len Wilson, the 194 pound Blonde Bliz. zard of the Appalachians, was a powerful defensive man. This week finds the Tribe in Washington, D. C for an engage ment with the George Washington Colonials, one of the largest and one of the most outstanding teams of the East. The Colonials, de feated in only one contest, will be favored to win in a walk-away. Appalachian, with their victory march abruDtlv halted, rake nn the East Tennessee Teachers at Johnson City, Tenn. And the anger of the Rippers will not help the Teachers. Elon’s Christians, who, led by Wins Grunt Derby . 1 T* VENICE. 'Sal. '. ‘t This lucky little piglet is fast on his hams.

Conference Meet In Greensboro (From The Pioneer) The 16 th annual meeting of the North Carolina College Conference was held in the O. Henry Hotel in.,--, Greensboro on Nov. 5-6. All the leading educators in the state were present to discuss various phases of college activity. A large represen tation of Catawba professors was present at the meeting, since this school has always held a prominent place in the work of the confer ence. Dr. H. R. Omwake presided over the meeting as president of the or ganization. He was elected to that post last year at the Charlotte meeting, and has acted in that capacity during the past year. Elec tion to this positron is a great honor, and one never before held by a member of the Catawba facul ty. The theme for this year’s dis cussion was the "The Articulation and Integration of Higher Educa tion.” This topic was discussed in group meetings. The conference which convenes once a year, is unique in that it is the only body of its kind existing in the U. S. today. It was formed 16 years ago as a result of the need felt by leading educators in the state for an association in which different colleges of North Caro lina could present and discuss prob lems of a similar interest to all. The organization has grown until now it is one of the leading state organizations. The president of each college automatically becomes a member. Past presidents of Ca tawba College have' been promin ent members of this organization. Seven 4-H clubs have been re organized in Davidson County to start club work for the coming year.
