MANY DECLAIMERS FOR THE HIGH SCHOOL MEET
T H I R T Y - S I X E N T R I E S I N ANNUAL INTERSCHOLASTIC DECLAMA
T I O N CONTEST
TWELVE IN FRIDAY NIGHT FINAL Men to Arrive Wednesday Afternoon and
Be Entertained on Campus. Three Preliminaries on Friday
Morning
The annual Inter-scholastic Declamation Contest to be held at Trinity college on Friday, November 28, gives promise of being one of the best of the series of contests that have been held since the inauguration of the plan in 1910. The contest is being conducted by the 9019, local .scholarship and patriotic student organization, which has a long record of honorable achievements behind it, and which has won for itself an enviable reputation in college circles. Last year, because of unsettled conditions, the 9019 did not hold a contest, but soon after the opening of the present year plans were set under way and work begun that will find their fruition Friday night when one of the best of the series will be held in Craven Memorial Hall.
To date there have been thirty-seven entries by high schools in this state, and while one or two of these are not absolutely sure that they will be in the contest, there is every assurance that thirty-fivi contestants will enter the preliminary Friday morning at 9 :30 o 'clock. The speakers are expected to arrive in Durham on Thursday afternoon and night, and will be the guests of the college community until Saturday morning. Of all the men who enter, twelve will be chosen to take part in the final contest Friday night, the preliminaries to be held Fr iday morning when the men, who will be divided by lot into three equal sections, will appear before preliminary judges whose duty it will be to choose four men from each of these divisions. These chosen twelve will appear before an audience that has in previous years well filled Craven Memorial Hall, and the previous contests have been of a sufficiently high order to insure that the speeches will be unusually fine examples of the art of declamation.
The committees of the 9019, which have been at work all the past few weeks, have secured rooms and places of entertainment for all the men who have entered; in most cases it has been true that there were men from the home town of tlie contestants who have gladly taken charge of their high school chums, and who have thus relieved the 9019 of a considerable share of detail work.
The official program as announced by the 9019 officers is as follows:
Thursday Night, 7:30 P.M.— Meeting of ail contestants in the Y.M.C.A. Hall, East Duke Building, for purposes of enrollment, receiving instructions, and drawing for places in the preliminary contests.
Fr iday Morning, 9:15 A.M.— Meeting of all contestants and preliminary judges in Y.M.C.A. Hall

Every member of the college community is urged to be present at the Interscholas-tic Declamation Contest in Craven Memorial Hall Friday night at 8 o'clock. Admission free. Everyone is invited to attend.

DR. COPPRIDGE LECTURED TO BIOLOGICAL CLUB MONDAY
Chief Bacteriologist of Watts Hospital Lectured on "Tissue and New
Growth"
An unusually interesting meeting of the Biological Club was held Monday evening when Dr. William Coppridge, chief bacteriologist of Watts Hospital, delivered a most instructive lecture on "Tissue and New Growth." Dr. Coppridge pointed out the fact that tumors and cancers were the most serious disease menaces of the day. since more people, after they r?ach the age of forty, are affected by them than any other disease. He emphasized the fact that biological students should give careful and continued study to this subject and stated that medical experts knew very little of the causes for them, having no successful treatment with which to offset their spread. Those who heard Dr. Coppridge enjoyed one of the most enlightening discussions of the year.
J. B. Whitener, ex-17, has just been discharged from service and has returned to college to he a member of the class of '20. Mr. Whitener attended the first Oglethorpe training camp, and has been in the army ever since, only reeieving his discharge on November 10.
JOSEF KONECNY PLAYS HERE TUESDAY NIGHT
FAMOUS B O H E M I A N V I O L I N I S T AND ACCOMPANISTS WILL
PLAY H E R E
UNDER AUSPICES OF Y. M. C. A. Grand Concert by One of Best Known
Violinists to be Given in Craven Memorial Hall Next Tues
day Night
Josef Konecny, the young Bohemian violinist, will give a recital at Craven Memorial Hall on Tuesday night, November the second. This distinguished Bohemian violinist is taking his annual tour of America. He has played in almost every state of the unon and in the insular possessions, appearing in many of the cosmopolitan centers of this country. His critics unanimously place him among the foremost violinists of the day. He has the distinction of having studied with Professor Sevcik of Vienna, the great Bohemian master who has turned out Ruheliek and most of tlie galaxy of celebrated violinists of the present day. He is the son of an humble Bohemian blacksmith, and a living example of what can be accomplished through indominable courage, industry and per severance.
Mary Tris accompanies Josef Konecny as his pianist. Miss Tris is a brilliant young Chicago pianist—a pupil and graduate of the late William Sherwood. At her professional debut some years ago she played the Godard Concerto, and both in that work and in many other appearances has proven herself a pianist of splendid charm. Gifted with an abundance of temperament, her technic is by no means mere mechanical skill, but it is a means to the production of marvelous tonal and rhythmical effects.
Martha Stelzl, soprano, also accompanies the violinist. Miss Stelzl has enjoyed exceptional opportunity for study. She has appeared in concert in almost every part of the United States and Canada. Her artistic work and unaffected presence winnning her instant and enthusiastic recognition.
This recital is given under the auspices of the Y. M. C. A. No student should fail to be present at this recital, because it presents an opportunity to hear a musical performance rendered by one of the world's most famous artists. The following telegrams have been received from cities where Josef Konecny has given recitals :
" D o n ' t be afraid to boost Josef Konecny. He and his assisting artists gave us a wonderful program here last night. People highly enthusiastic. Our auditorium seats four hundred,—every seat sold several hours before program began."
"Konecny and assisting artists accorded great ovation at Academy of Music last night. Eight hundred dollar house. Concert worthy of your best suppor t . "
Tickets for this recital can he purchased from L. W. Saunders and .1. E, Cilbreath.
Josef Konecuy's Concert will be given in Craven Memorial Hall Tuesday evening, December 2, at 8 o'clock. For tickets see Y.M.C.A. officers. This concert promises to be a rare musical treat,, and everyone should avail himself of the opportunity.
PRELIMINARY DEBATE HELD BY COLUMBIA LAST NIGHT
Carpenter, Harmon, Jackson, and Lefler Compose Debate Team for
Columbia
The Columbian Literary Society held its preliminary for the selection of its inter-society debaters last night, and the following men were the successful contestants: J. T. Carpenter, G. T. Harmon, J . L. Jackson, and H. T. Lefler, as alternate. Quite a large number of men were in this contest and all the speeches showed a great amount of careful thought and preparation. The judges of the contest were: Dr. W. I. Cranford, Dr. W. T. Laprade, and Professor B. W. Barnard.
The intcr-soeiety debate is an annual event of the college year, and it is always looked forward to by the students with a great deal of interest. The query for this year 's debate is : Reseloved, That the principle of the closed shop should be applied to all American industries, Hesperia has chosen the negative side of the question, and will select her representalivcs tonight. From all present indications both of the societies will have very strong teams this year, and the members of the societies and of the college community are eagerly awaiting this spirited contest, which will be held just before the Christmas holidays.

Thursday evening at 7:30 a group of student met with Professor A. M. Webb in the Economics room and organized a French club, " L e Circle Franeais ." Professor Webb opened the meeting with a short talk in which he stated that the purpose of the organization is to get together those students who are interested in and want to learn French, and to help them acquire a better knowledge of that language. Mr. La vail ee gave an interesting talk explaining the work and activities in the Lycees of France.
SOPHOMORES DEFEATED BY JUNIORSMURDAY
CONTEST R E S U L T S IN SCORE OF 16 TO 0 FOR THIRD
YEAR MEN
JUNIORS HOLD CHAMPIONSHIP Contest Was Hard Fought and Was an
Excellent Exhibition of Football. Practice for Varsity Will
Continue
Three hundred enthusiastic football supporters saw the junior eleven walk away with the interclass football championship last Saturday afternoon, beating the sophomore aggregation by the score of 16 to 0. The count consisted of two touchdowns, one field goal, and one goal kick. This game ended the schedule planned for this season, but Coach Rothensies has announced that football practice will continue and several exhibition games will probably be played in order to train the material for a varsity team next fall.
Captains McGranahan and Crawford were back in the game, having been out a while on account of slight injuries. Barrett and Leach did good playing for the sophomores while the defensive work of Hathcock at tackle, Harmon at guard, and the playing of Giles at end deserves special mention for the juniors.
The first half of the game was marked by hard playing by boih teams; the fighting of the sophomores being marred, however, by The high tackling of some of their players. Near the end of the sec-. ond quarter the juniors scored a touchdown by two line plunges by McGranahan, one end run of Starling, and a series of quick line rushes, Starling carrying the ball over.
The second half was opened by a splendid run of 20 yards made by L. L. Rose, after reciving a forward pass. During the first quarter of this half, the game was marked by series of penalties placed on the juniors which were counteracted, however, by a series of brilliant plays made by Cole, Hathaway, and Starling, which ended in the second touchdown of the game made by Captain McGranahan. Cole kicked goal. In the last few minutes of play Cole received a punt and made a run of 20 yards, following this by kicking a field goal. The line-ups were:
Juniors Position Sophs. Ashe, A. E _..._.Millican, J . P .

PARK SCHOOL NOTES
Robert L. Jerome was selected from the nine contestants to represent Trinity Park School in the 9019 declamation contest to be held at Trinity College on Friday following Thanksgiving Day. The winning selection was from President Wilson's April 2nd Address before Congress. Mr. Overton was given special mention for the good selection and excellent way in which he delivered his plea for present day education. The judges in the contest were Professors West, Murray, and Lewis.
Professors Aldridge and McKay have just returned from conference bringing news from home to many of the boys.
