SATURDAY, OCTOBER 8, 1933 1 He Likes Our President For West Throws Bouquets At Graham At Inn Luncheon Alumni President Chief Executive of Scouts Praises Greater University Head For Work By BEN ROEBUCK Dr. James E. West, chief exe cutive of the Boy Scouts of America, who is in Chapel Hill as the foremost guest of region six's four-day jubilee, lauded the University's President Frank P. Graham yesterday. "Dr. Graham in his under standing of men and his outlook on life is certainly one of the most outstanding men in his field," stated the chief executive yesterday prior to a luncheon at Carolina inn given in his honor by Alpha Phi Omega, national honorary service fraternity. "I am grateful to the Univer sity for having the Scouts and leaders of region six here for the second time; the last time I was here was three years ago and I hope my present stay will be as enjoyable as the last one," con tinued Chief West. Chief West has just returned from Kansas City; he came there after a trip to Mexico where he inspected a 35,000 acre expanse in the Rocky mountains which is proposed to be made a Boy Scout ranch. In discussing youth move ments of the world Dr. West stated that in Russia 125,000 youths gather annually at Mos cow to take part in the vast gov ernment program for the train ing of youths in various activi ties centered upon developing high idealism in the younger generation. "Twenty-seven thousand Boy Scouts came to Washington last year for the National Boy Scout jamboree, the first of its kind. In America we have a highly important youth organization which embodies 1,267,000 youths and leaders, the Boy Scouts of America," pointed out the chief executive. Dr. West, born in 1876, be came the chief executive back in 1911 because of his work under President Theodore Roosevelt in the interest of dependent chil dren. He at first declined the office but later accepted it for six months' trial period which never expired. The chief executive attributes his success in rounding out wide program of boys' work to his persistence in carrying out a project for which was one of his great ambitions. His "most in spiring job in the world" and the feeling of optimism it has con veyed upon him has helped him overcome the physical handicaps he had when he entered upon the work. Dr. West has given his per sonal support to a reading pro gram for the youth of America He is the editor of the popular Boy Scout magazine.

And to hell with the alumni, the townspeople, and the girls at the Woman's college." The speaker was Pat Gaskins, week-end visitor who was elect ed editor of the Buccaneer in the spring of 1934. His regime would probably have been no more unusual than that of any other editor, had not his first issue incurred the wrath of the administration. "They thought it was too filthy to continue," said Pat, "so they suspended publication of the Buccaneer. I admit it was a bit crude, but I never believed it was bad as they claimed. But Dean Bradshaw told me that he'd rather have given each stu dent a year's subscription to the 'Smoke House Monthly than let them read that June edition." The following fall, the student Dances. 3.

"They wouldn't let me call it Pirate, or Booty, or anything that even suggested a boat. So we finally picked Finjan, which is a Persian word meaning a cup without a handle. It was as clean as the flowers that bloom in the spring, and the lousiest publica tion this school ever had." The Finjan ran for eight is sues, and then it became the Buc caneer again. Gaskins believes that any humor magazine that can be absolutely cleairand still be witty is exceptional. "The New Yorker is one of the few. And it takes an exceptional stu dent to appreciate it. Sophistica doesn't go so well at Carolina." Pat suffered the usual troubles of the editor, particularly in the matter of copy. One month he put out an issue that was a parody of Time. In addition to rewriting most of the stuff turned in, he had to stay up all night, fortified by liquid refresh ments, and bang out 10,000 words himself. He considers Bobby Mason, now with the Dur ham Herald, to have put out the best Buccaneer in 1932-33. "I come back to Chapel Hill about every three months." re vealed Pat. "I sell laboratory equipment and this school is one of my best customers. The cam pus hasn't changed much since I went to Carolina, except that there's a greater interest in out side affairs and the fellows I used to get potted with every night are no longer here. "Everyone seems so surprised when they find out what busi ness I'm in. They all thought I was a journalism major, but I really specialized in chemistry. Incidentally, in case anyone re members that "how to play con tract bridge" article in the June, 1934 Buc, I want to say that I do not play bridge." Andy Bershak makes his de but as a journalist in the October issue of the Alumni Review. Bershak is featured as a columnist in the football specials, and his comments in the first of the customary weekly football supplements of the magazine at tracted unusual attention. To Tell the Truth (Continued from pagt ttco) Then he called a Big Apple (re member this was last year) in the most accredited college style. And when he was tired the old grad sat down in the comfort able chair again, and he called the freshmen back around him. "Boys," he said, "I just want to tell you one thing before I go. You're in the four best years of your lives. This is just an other football game to you, and another week-end of diversion. And you have three years more of them. Take them all in your stride boys . . . and do some studying too. Chapel HilPs a wonderful place, and it's yours just like it used to be mine. Keep it like it is boys, so men like me can come back for a day and see little things like they used to be." It was getting late and the old grad had a wife waiting at home with his supper. He waved good bye to the wide-eyed freshmen and waved a kiss to the girls. Then the old grad straightened his suit, fixed his tie, and left. Were hoping that he comes back to us today and we're hoping that. he has as good a time as he thinks we do.
