Kod Norvo aiul liis ovcliostra Iwivo lieoii booked for tlic eighth annual J n tc r f ra te rn i ty Ball, F r a n k Meyers, chairman of the ball committeo, an nounced last Fr iday. I t is believed the annual affair will lie held in the Bitz-Carlton Hotel’s main liallroom Friday, November 3. An added fe a ture of the main social event of the fall term is an additiona l hour of dancing for the Greeks. In previous years the dance came to an end a t 1 o’clock; this year the program calls for dancing from 9 until 2 o’clock.

The committeo has also made a r rangements to have the lounge ad joining the main ballroom exclusively reserved fo r Drexel .students. This will give the dance a pr ivacy th a t has not been fe lt in other years when guests of the hotel were present in the lounge.

Meyers Chairman

F ran k Meyers, chairman of the Ball, in announcing the committee’s selection, said, “This year the In te r f ra te rn i ty Bal l will have one of the top-notch bands of the country, and since the committee has been so fo rtu na te in securing Bed Norvo, I feel certain tha t the ball will be both a financial and a social success. I would also like to announce th a t the ball is not limited to f r a te rn i ty men. Eve ry freshman and upperclassman in the college is cordially invited to at tend.”

As has been the tradit ion in past years, the evening following the ball will fe a tu re open house dances a t all the f r a te rn i ty houses a t no additional charge.

Members of the In te r f ra te rn i ty Ball committee other than Chairman Meyers are Ed Boltz, Virgil Groo, Fred Bolten, Winif red Degen, and B eth Eeese.

P lan Lodge P arty Late in Fall T erm

L arry Smith, pres ident of the Drexel Debat ing Society, called to order last Tuesday, October 10, the meeting a t which plans for th e coming season were commenced.

The date of the first debate is ten ta t ive ly set a t November 6 with Haver fo rd on the topic: “Eesolved: Tha t the United States should follow a policy of s tric t (economic and milit a ry ) isolation to all na tions outside the western hemisphere engaged in civil or in te rnational armed conflict.”

The activities of the society are, in a large measure, dependent on the outcome of the still pending affiliation with the Philadelphia I ’orensic League. I f membership in the league is obtained, there will be regularly scheduled debates on the P h i Kappa Della question quoted above, with local colleges and universities all during the fall. The usual, widely va ried round of debates during the win te r season are a lready being scheduled.

A Lodge par ty is planned for some time a f te r Thanksgiving. Such a f fa ir s of the Debat ing Society are famed fo r the enterta in ing na tu re of the debates usually occurring.

F our freshmen, prospective debaters, were present a t the meeting, and it was announced tha t several others had ind icated their interest.

F o r C o m in g Y e a rFeatu r in g an interview of Profe s

sor Cecil Kapp, director of cooperative education, the first issue of the “Drexel Technical .Tournal” will be published about October It). This magazine, which is put out for the students in the engineering school, is going into its th ird year of publication. According to Marvin Ham- berg, th is y ear’s cditor-in-chicf, the “Jou rna l” will be larger and contain more information of inte res t not only to engineers but to other students and alumni as well.

Telling the inside story of how the engineers get their indus try jobs, the artic le on the cooperative system is only one of six articles in this coming issue. These articles cover va r i ous subjects such as “Elimination of S ta tic and Noise in the Radio,” “New Methods of Building,” and “ The Moulding of Synthetic P la s tics.” Mr. G. K. Matheson, inst ruc to r of economics, also contributed an article on the “Application of M athe matics to Economics.”

This year the “Journa l” is sponsoring a contest to stimulate tech nical wri ti ng among the students. Ten dollars will be awarded fo r the best article. Details of this contest were announced in the first issue of the Triangle. The “Drexel Technical Journa l” is self-supporting, depending entirely on studen t subscriptions. All students may obta in subscription cards a t the. “Technical Journa l” oflice.

Commuters’ Club Organizes Party

A very successful buffet supper held last Tuesday in the Women’s Lounge was th e first of a series of social activ ities to bo sponsored by the Commuters’ Club this year. Among the ninety who attended wore a number of freshman women whose in te res t and enthusiasm added grea tly to the fun.

A week-end at the Lodge on October 28 and 29 is the club’s second b ig event fo r this term. Many plans fo r i t have already been made by th e ente rta inment committeo, of which Mildred Schlosser is in charge, and the big featu re of the week-end — a Hallowe’en pa r ty on Saturday n ight—will, in itself, make it well wor th at tending. Afte r the Randolph- Macou game on Saturday, th e group will drive out to the Lodge where th e foods committee in charge of Ed i th Thomas, will serve dinner. L a te r in the evening, the girls will don costumes of all descriptions for the party . On Monday, October 23, there will bo a table in tho Court to make reservations for the week-end, which will cost $1.25.

‘‘Stage Door” Cast Begins Rehearsals

The Rouge and Robe will j)resent “ Stage Door” on November 17 and 18. Our amateur thespians under the direction of Mrs. Chase have an nounced the cast and are rehearsing diligently. All indications point to as huge a success a t Drexel as “Stage Door” experienced on Broadway and in tho cinema.

An in tr iguing s tory of the th e a t rical world, “Stage Door” owes its existence to it s co-authors George S. K aufm an and Edna Ferbor. F i r s t produced by Sam H.

Many thanx to Bill Bcthnrds who did a swell job of piiuOi hit ti ng for your corrospondont Inst week.

Viewed from the absolute s tand point, th a t Hartw ick encounter was a very sad ailair. The boys were at least hoots and a holler from expected form.

Should ImproveMuch improvement in all depar t

ments of the game is necessary be fore the G-burg brawl. Las t year Horse Chase’s linemen smashed every Bullet oifensive thrus t except those three touchdown plays a la the in te rcepted pass route.

The H artw ick contest uncovered very in teres ting fac ts however. For ins tance— the fa c t th a t our Kenneth Rodgers, blocking back, quarter back, and ji t t e rbug is a competent car rier. Kennie, though he is no speed demon, is nevertheless fast. He re versed his field be tte r th an any other back on the gridi ron last week when he galloped odd yards to score. Inc identally, Kenneth utilized litt le downfleld blocking on tha t play. The en ti re H artw ick secondary moved to the r ight when Rodgers broke thru the right side of the defensive line. His immediate reversal of direction crossed th e defending team so tha t Rodgers traipsed the full distance to the goal line in the Thurston midst wildly waving arms.

Rodgers Tr ickyRodgers’ “Give ’em a leg take it

away” xiivot is an open field weapon worthy of mention. The effective execution of this tr ick depends on th e nicety of time for the leg must be taken away a f te r the tackier has taken his shot. Should the runner pivot before the tackie r commits himself, the tack ier need merely change direction slightly.

The performances of Messrs. Carp- lick, Quinn, and Dilarso, in the tai l back position, were heartening. These gen try proved th a t the outside ru n ning a t tack remains dangerous even a f te r power Hughes leaves the game.

Carplick F as tCarplick proved himself part icular

ly adept a t receiving punts.The in jury which forced Ed from

the game prevented his showing his wares fully. Carplick is as fa s t as Hughes on the dead run though not as fa s t a s tarter. Red-bearded Ifrankie Quinn learned his lesson about interference following two short plays wherein ho left the blockers, cut to the inside, and was jiroinptly murdered. Thereafter the Jer sey fleetfoot used the in te r fer ence like a veteran, ge tt ing off to some beauti fu l gains. His hop, skip, and spirit stylo of running is sometimes reminiscent of bro ther Jack.

Dee Shows WellDilarso, the 131 pound wonder, is

a law unto himself in the open field. Deo, who has seen litt le action, is a will-o’-the-wisp in the open field. Seldom hit squarely by a tackier, Dilarso is a. constant throat.

I n the opening minute of the first quarter, Bob Clyde, tlie roly-poly from Northeast, proved himself a capable tackier from the defensive center position. Enthusiastically aid ed by the mite, Consalvi, Clyde stopped all plays to his side. Lit tle Tony enjoyed equal success on his side of the field, rendering very foolish tho at tempts of the 200 pound Hartw ick guards to block him out.

Ends Capture FumblesEnds H utton and Silver gave their

best performances to date. Each managed to catch a Hartwick fumble during the game, and both handled end sweeps much more capably than during the Geneva fray. Ends Micklo and Engle also performed well. Mickle reported to camp two weeks la te ; therefore, ho has not reached peak condition. He tii’es easily—but while fresh, ho plays the typical “Horse” Chase smashing defensive game,

Engle a t long last shows signs of re tu rn ing to the form tha t made him one of Pennsylvania ’s outs tanding ends. His defensive play against Blue Ridge was outs tanding; he was no loss effective against Hartwick, I n high school, Sammy’s toe was magic. Pe rhaps ho will manage to regain tho extra point knack before the curta in rings down on the season.

D r e x e l W i n s S e c o n dSquad Gains at Will, But Fails in PayoflF Area; Sophomores Look Good In Only Bright Side of Tilt

b’inally scoring in the last few minutes of play, Droxel’s listless Dragons last week pushed a woefully weak Il.'ii'twiek football team all over the field for three jieriods for a sum total of only nine to notliing. Five times the Golden Dragons were on the tlireshold of scoring touchdowns, but through various bad breaks coupled with bad passes from center, failed to capitalize on iiiiy of them, exc>e|>t for tho au to matic safe ty scored in the second period on the tail-end of one of the many Dragon drives toward the W ar riors’ goal line.

I t was only in the last period, wlien the second team, conijtosed mostly of sophomores with a few veterans in to bolster the second- year men, jmslied the ball to the 42- yard line, a t which time Coach Halas, who seems to have changed his tac tics this year in regard to substitu tions, rushed the entire first team back into the game. Glenn Williams, a consistent ground gainer the whole afternoon, then slashed off tackle to pick up 12 yards. Again he took the ball and came to rest on the visitors’ 23. Then, using the shovel pass play th a t was the Dragons’ most consistent weapon with the exce])tiou of off-tackle smashes, Rodgers took the ball from Tommy Hughes on the run, slii>ped through tho line, reversed liis field, and crossed the goal line standing up to score the first six pointer of the game. Then the Drexel team did something th a t it failed to do the entire last season, it kicked the ext ra ])oint instead of plunging. Again it was Williams who did the trick.

Kicking GoodAbout the only place th a t the

Hartwick team showed any st rength was in the kicking department. Milone, halfback for the visitors, got off several beaut ifu l kicks, but our own Pal Hughes let loose some beau tiful kicks tha t set the Hartwick team back many yards.

G round At 6 9 lh St. and M arshall R oad Is Secured

Drexel’s new athletic field which, when finished, will measure up to the highest college standards, is in the making.

Ground for the field was purchased at 09th Street and Marshall Road in West Philadelphia. A t the present time, 09th Street is being cut through from M arket St reet to Baltimore Avenue. Thus Drexel’s field will be easily accessible to all.

Separate Football, Baseball FieldsWhen all tho ground has been se

cured, there will bo approximately sixteen acres. When completed, there will bo separate baseball and football fields, eight or ten tennis courts, a straight-away and oval track. There will also be a new stadium, a field house, and all other necessary college facilities. Tlio field will probably accommodate ten or fifteen thousand peoyile from surrounding vicinities and allow largo sports events.

Tho purchase of tho new athletic field was necessitated by tho possible sale of the present field a t 40th St. The la tt e r is pa r t of the Kirkbr ido property, which also includes tho ground for the Hospital for Mental Diseases, adjacent to our fiekl. The proposed moving of tho hospital to a new site near Newtown Square brought several ten ta tive offers for tho sale of tho 40th Street property. Turning the ground into a Federal Housing project was considered; ap parent ly no action has been taken.

Tho time for completion and occupation of tho now field is, as yet, unknown, since authorities do not know how long tho present atlilotic field will remain available for use.

K en Rodgers

As his last year of college football marches on, we pause to reflect on tho excellence of the games which Ken Rodgers has consistently played.

Ken s ta r ted off as a sophomore player with the proverbial “ bang.” He quarterbacked the Dragon eleven to a 34-7 victory over .Juniata tha t season, scoring two of the touchdowns himself as the result of well- executed forward ])asses.

Dropping the gridiron game for his pre-junior year, due to tho three- year eligibility ruling, Ken took up again last year where he had le ft off as a soph. Since then, Rodgers has always been an integral cog in the Dragon gridiron wheel. His vicious blocking and rugged backing up have helped to provide the downfall of many a Tech opponent. Having the blocking back’s job on any eleven is no picnic, mainly bruises and more bruises from hitt ing those would-be tacklers. However, Kenny has consistently done the job well.

This season Rodgers stands out as one of the best and most necessary men on the field, star ring of late as a pass receiver. He scored on a shovel pass from Hughes in tho opening ti l t with Blue Ridge, and went over for our only touchdown in the recent Hartwick clash as a result of a neat ]>iece of shovel passing and subsequent running.

Tech will miss one of our strongest, most dependable men, from the time a t the Hopkins game in November, when he plays his final college quarters.

P e r r y R i f l e M a tc h e sDuring the summer, J im Haislip

shot on the Third Corps Area Rifle Team a t Camp Perry, Ohio.

J im partic ipated in sixteen matches as a principal of his team. On each team there are ten principals, two al terna tes who only shoot if tho principals are not there, and two team captains.

The team on which Haislip shot won the Leech Cup Medal, which in cludes seven shots a t 800 yards, seven a t 900 yards, and seven a t 100 yards. J im scored 101 out of a possible 105, and won three qualifying medals as well as one Class B Medal.

Approximately 4n00 men shot in the meet which lasted for three weeks, the first week of which in cluded a small arms school. There tho men learned how to handle and ins truct in small arms shooting.

This Collegiate WorldWo knew it would happen—but

we’d hoped it wouldn’t. Tho gulping season has been ollicially and dram at ically oi)ened for another college year— and watch out for your laurels, you “ winners” of last year!

F ir s t entry in tho 1939-1940 derby is Franklin and Marshall College’s J im my Addy, a frosh from P i t t s burgh. For a mere 50-cont piece (they were get ting ten dollar bills for stunts lust year) he calmly swallowed a shaker-full of popper—and then not nco teams it desires to meet.

'I'his is ])recisely what wo are doing. The . \th le tic Department has decided to engage fewer conference opponents and schedules those opponents whom they wish to i>lay. Such a policy is deemed advisable becnuse- of the non-subsidizhig a th letic (lolicy established by the school. Intersect ional Games

Intersectional football contests between smaller schools are coming more and more into their own. The ])rirne example of such a (xilicy is the Arkansas A. & M. team. This group has a schedule of seven games, and each tilt is played in a different section of the country. Not long ago this club was hero to f ray with St. .losejih’s College.

I am not iidvising such a radical innovation into our schedule, but I do believe three or four intersectional games would enormously increase the prestige of the school. The home and home arrangement with

Dr(?xel journeys to Gettysburg to morrow for the annual fray with the Mullets. Coach Bream has a powerful squad of eleven lettermen and th ir teen sophomores, which has a l ready subdued Hucknell and Albright, both by one touchdown.

In having a qua rte t of triple-threat backs to draw on, the Battlefieldcrs ])resent their strongest backtield in recent years, l lnmilton and Bender are vetenins with two ye.'irs’ experience, while Stock and Shoemaker are sophomores who have l)roken in to the s ta r ting line-up.

Hamilton Passe rHamilton will be remembered for

his beaut iful passing in last year’s game when he heav(‘d passes right and left for good gains on almost every try, although one did boomerang when Khmling snared one and raced back over 30 yards before l)e- ing brought down. Hamilton then proceeded to intercept one of Ehm- ling’s own shots to race to the Drexel one before being brought down.

Bender is remembered for his vicious line plunging, scoring one of Gettysburg’s (i pointers last season.

Baldy Hamilton is tho spearhead of the G-burg off'ensive. His hard running, brilliant passing, and adroit kicking were dominant in sparking the Orange and Blue to its first two victories. Shoemaker, the first year fullback, is one of the most ])ower- ful buckers in Bullet footbiill history. He backs u]> the line on defense and is noted for his vicious tackling.

Coach Bream has a hard-charging rugged line; all the positions except center are occupied liy veterans: guard Baily and Glad iind tackles Hill and Ashburn have all seen serv-

Girls Rifle Team Loses Many Stars

W ith only sixteen fr eshman girls reporting for tho riflo team and Cramblet, Schwass, Gillis, and W al ters lost to tho team, prospects for the year are not as promising as they luive boon in previous years.
