Transcript: Tech Oracle New Buildings to Be Erected On Tech Campus Very Soon Science Building, Gymnasium and Central Heating System Planned. At a meeting. of the State Board of Education in the office of Gov. H. H. Horton last Friday afternoon, appropriations were approved for the expenditure of $900,000 on State supported schools. Out, of this appropriation, -Tennessee Teel has been allotted $160.000. _ Two hundred thousand dollars will be expended for improvements in each of the state teachers' colleges;-$90,000 will gotto Southern Presbyterian U. at Clarksville, and $60,000 to A. & L. Normal at Nashville. Tech will have a new Science building and a new gymnasium, and a central heating plant. These buildings will add greatly to the equipment and facilities of the institution and will make a much larger enrollment possible. Blue print plans have not been submitted as yet, but construction work will begin at an early date. We owe thanks to President Q. M. Smith for his successful effort to build a bigger and better Tennessee Tech. Tech Wins 61 Points in Season’s Games Tech 12 –Hiwassee, 0. Tech 6 –Cumberland, 24. Tech 0 –C. H. H. S., 9 Tech 43 –Ga.

The final game of the seasonal will be played with U.T. Junior College at Martin, Tenn. Next Thursday. After that game, the figured will tell a different story. The Defeated by M.T. State Teachers The Golden Eagles motored over to Murfreesboro last Friday for the annual fracas with Middle Tennessee Teachers. The teachers got the pie, by a margin of 13 digits. It was a tough tussle, from the firing of the first cannon until the old purple and gold surrendered. Replete, the game was, with thrills and fighting spirit. It was four years ago that Tech began its football relations with M.T.S.T.C. That year the Eagles carried off the victory by a score of 6-0. The next year, the game ended in a scoreless tie. Las year the annual classic was called off on ac () count of an epidemic which was raging down the Rutherford county, and this year the score, unfortunately, was 13-0 in favor of the fighting teachers. This last game, however, was much closer than the score would indicate. Many of the Tech rooters and Cookeville friends journeyed over to see the game, and they reported the game was very, very close. The Eagles received the first kick-off and proceed immediately on a grand march for five first downs before the opposing team could find themselves. Near the goal line the Eagles were forced to call a halt, and the Teachers punted out of danger on the second trial. Tech blocked the first trial but M.T. recovered. From then on, it was a hard-fought game, with the teams evenly matched. The teachers scored their two touchdowns in the third quarter. Harrison and Harkman, quarter and full, played the outstanding game for the opponents. Adams starred for Tech, both on offense and defense with hard tackling and line plunging. The Tech spirit was high, and we played the best game of the season, with each man doing his best. Harvest On the air the ocean’s music, and a whisper on the plain. Where a lost wind sighs and murmurs thru the fields of waving grain. Overhead the white star-gardens of arvastly richer yield. And Orion’s golden hunter watching o’er the purple field. Where the dimly lustrous night has fallen over land and sea, Old hauntings of the days of Dream come flooding back to me. --C.T.B. Golden Eagles Hold Cumberland Bull-dogs to A 13-0 Score in Last Game Here, Friday. In a hard-fought game here Friday, November 18th, the Bulldogs of Cumberland University defeated the Golden Eagles by a score of 13-0. This is the second time this season that our team has suffered defeat at the hands of the lawyers from Lebanon, but our showing was considerably better in this game than in the first. The game was played on a muddy field –in fact, a few canoes and rafts would have come in mighty handy. Tech punted on first down nearly every time. Foxy Sixwell did some very good punting. The Eagles played a fairly good defensive game, but they could not keep Brooks and big “Tiny” Knee from gaining thru the line. As a result, Cumberland made 17 first downs to Tech’s none. Cumberland scored on a pass, Brooks to Farrow, just before the last half was up. They scored again in the last half-minute of the game. The Eagles showed real fight in the last few minutes and it took Cumberland four downs, to make about two yards for the touchdown. Cumberland tried nineteen passes and completed six of them. The Eagles tried one pass, which was incomplete. Guthrie showed adeptness at breaking up the opposing aerial attack. This was our last home game of the season. Captain Starnes appeared in the Purple and Gold uniform for the last time before home fans. He has given a good account of himself in Tech football for the past seven years.

Thanksgiving Comes But Once A Year It won’t be long now until a goodly number of those who inhabit our dormitories will be boarding the train for home. Thanksgiving is a holiday second only in importance to Yuletide; the only difference is it’s shorter. Those who go home will feast and drink, and probably go to see their sweethearts. Those who stay here will write term papers. It is really surprising when you come to think of how many term papers are published out of the way during Thanksgiving. Just watch the town students carrying away books from the library on the afternoon of the 24th and you’ll see that they mean business, just the same as their Mayflower kinsfolk did in ye olden dayes. They’re Puritans for work –those town students are! But, to those who go home, we have only this bit of cautionary advice to offer: don’t eat too much, and don’t drink too much (Christmas is not far away –and anyway, there will be another Thanksgiving next year) and try to get back here on time. If you cannot get back any other way, call an ambulance! Gene Tunney Interviewed From the “New Student” we learn that a “Yale Daily News” reporter interviewed the erudite Mr. Gene Tunney (Mr. Tunney is the world’s heavyweight champion) the other day, and got a fine inspirational message for his fellow students. “All life’s a fight.” Said the pride of the marines, somewhat in the manner of William Shakespeare, “and everyone in the world is one of its principals. Its cardinal rule is give and take. The man who can take a knockdown and get up and fight is the man who is going to win.” Tennessee Tech to Become a Four Year College in ‘28 Tech will give Bachelor’s degree at Commencement in 1929. In chapel Monday morning, President Smith made the announcement that Tennessee Tech will no longer be a junior college, but that after this year, four years of college work will be given, leading to the bachelor’s degree. This, we feel sure, is the greatest single step that Tech has made in its decade of rapid growth. It is the goal towards which President Smith and all the friends of T.P.I. have been striving these many years. It places T.P.O. on as equal footing with the state “teachers” colleges and offers an opportunity for unlimited growth and expansion. Tennessee Tech has a wide field for development. There is but one Tennessee Polytechnic Institute and it fills one of the most important places in the educational needs of this state. It is evident, that with the new buildings, which are to be erected soon, and with the addition of the fourth year of college, Tech is entering upon as era of development greater than any she has enjoyed thus far. Armistice Program by Y.M. And Y.W.C.A. The Young Men’s Christian Association and the Young Women’s Christian Association held an interesting joint program in the auditorium on Wednesday evening. The program was in commemoration of November 11, 1918 when the “war to end war” ceased. The program was as follows: Song, “Star-Spangled Banner”, all Scripture reading, Selmer Neskaug. Is War Ever justified? By Wallace Mitchell. Poem Harriet Johnson Education as a means of promoting World Peace Lee Leonard Peace through Sympathy and Cooperation Betty Lee Song, “America” All --Lee Leonard, Reporter. Recognizing Scholars Recognition of students who have attained scholastic honors during the past academic year was made publicly at Brown University. . October 18. It marked the sixth annual Honors Day, which Brown has set aside for tribute to its best students. Brown besides pioneering in permitting students to do honor work, was the first university to give them recognition of a sort comparable to that granted achievement in extra-curricular activities. Cossack Chorus Free to Tech Students On Tuesday evening, November 29 the Russian Cossack Chorus will appear in concert at the City School auditorium, under the auspices of Tennessee Polytechnic Institute and Cookeville Music Club. The Chorus is composed of fourteen men under the personal direction of Sergei Socoloff, one of the most noted directors Russia has produced. Newspaper reviews from various cities in Europe pronounce this the most wonderful ensemble of voices ever heard on a European stage. Socoloff receiving unstinted praise for his artistic directing. This is by far the most expensive musical attraction that has ever been brought to Cookeville and it is an unusual opportunity for the people of the Upper Cumberland section to have a musical treat brought to them. The chorus comes to this city directly after its appearance at Ward-Belmont, Nashville, the previous evening. The Russian Cossack Chorus entertainment will be free to T.P.I. students. What’s the World Coming to? “Miss Mary Lou Colvert holds the expectorating record for DeKalb county Hi. She stood at the back of the stage, spat thru a window on the far side of the auditorium, and submerged a herd of cattle being driven up College St.” --County Hi News (Straw Voting) Jim Reed of Missouri, nominated in convention extraordinary, and pitted against Herbert Hoover, was elected president of the United States by a majority vote of 55 freshmen students of Clio Hill, Princeton University, who have started the first of what probably will be many college straw votes on presidential possibilities. Upper Cumberland Society The Upper Cumberland Literary Society is stepping out with a higher class of program than they have ever given before. If you want some real entertainment, drop into our sanctum and be our guest on Monday afternoon at 4 o’clock. The Upper Cumberland spirit is coming to the front this year.

Foster Business Department Business Mgr. David Terry Circulation Mgr. Alfred Gill Published Semi-Monthly Subscription per year $1.50 Editorially Speaking Our Faculty Tennessee Tech is to be congratulated upon its corps of able and earnest instructors. Not many years ago, the criticism was bandied about to the effect that Tech had no faculty, but that criticism would now be woefully out of season. We have, thank god! None of those pedantic old codgers who wear the Ph. D., and that is an advantage of which a great many colleges cannot boast. The Master’s degree is about all that any man can stand, and retain his mental vigor. The teachers with whom we work and from whom we get not only information but certain worthy odds and ends of characters, may be summed up as follows: They are sincere and industrious: they are young and full of fire; they are unusually well equipped for the teaching profession –they are studious; they are lovable. This, to our way of thinking, is about all that could be hoped for. The faculty at Tech would be a credit to any modern institution of higher learning. We should feel thankful that we have the opportunity of associating with such a select group of teachers, and we should –at least occasionally –let them know that we appreciate the work they do, and also the spirit in which they do it. Obituary?? (Editor’s note –The flowing is a contribution handed us by a student. Perhaps it is out of place now, after that splendid speech which Mr. Passons made in chapel last week, but we print it hoping that it will cause a further revival of interest in literary society work.) The archangel Death dipped her pan and wrote “Here lies the wreck of that organization which was once a fundamental part of every student life –the literary society.” And then, like the vision of Abou Ben Adhem, she vanished. We wonder if it’s true? Can it be that the old customs inevitably give way to the new, and that out of ancient wrecks, new forms, often of lesser worth, arise? It has not been long since the literary and debating society was a vital part of the student’s life as math or Greek; even more so. Many of our greatest orators and statesmen, in times past, have been products of the literary society rather than of the classroom. Woodrow Wilson is an example –altho he later achieved eminence as a scholar in post-graduate work. The literary society may have had its day. The indications point in that direction. In T.P.O. (as elsewhere) interest lags, the shell of what was once a glorious institution is now falling to pieces and those who attend the meetings go to sleep. Even the debaters, the orators, go to sleep on their feet. The significance? The cause? That’s a problem. But at least something ought to be done about it. Attempts should be made to revive the literary society –to put new life into it, or else to abandon it altogether. There’s no use trying to sail on a sinking ship. Poets’ Corner A Warning. “Come, little Feshman,” said Mr. Foster one day. “Come down to my room with me and play; Put away other sciences that have grown old, For chemistry will make you as bright as gold.” Soon as the Freshies heard Mr. Foster’s loud call, Down they came flocking one and all, With a leap and a bound they came down the stair, For little they guessed what awaited them there. Oh, leisure goodbye, you’ve been with us so long; Pleasant moments, sing us your farewell song. Yes, we are sorry to see you go. Oh, we will miss you quite well, we know. Little twelfth graders in your ignorance stay, And do not let chemistry lure you away, For tho you have watched us as our knowledge spread, We assure you that chemistry will KILL YOU DEAD! --Ruth Leonard Remember You said “Remember me,” With the lovelight in your eyes And I said, “I will, don’t worry”, And I hought that I was wise In revoking love and you For our paths were twain you know And I knew you’d be a burden On the way that I must go. But now the scene has altered, For the trial is at its end, And the murky, misty shadows With my lonely pathway blend; As with a feeble, saddened eye Into the gloom I peer, I remember, I remember And wish that you were here --A Freshman A woman’s hair A golden hair’s before me, All shining; it lies so fair; I wonder what lady once owned it, With its face of gold so rare? Mayhaps some man once fought for her In that days of long ago— While ruler she was of some fair land, With love and life ashore. Only a woman’s hair it is. In a tiny curling loop, But I think I’d like it better If it were not in my Soup. --“Uncle Joe” Dodson Beastley The Merry-go-Round Watch, wait, listena dn save your dimes for the Sherwood Belles Lettres play.

Carrie High: “Just what are Italian forget me nots?” Bill Breeding: “At a venture I should say garlie.” Mr. Henderson: “Why don’t you answer me?” Hollis Ours: “I did shake my head.” Mr. Henderson: “Well, do you expect me to hear it rattle way up here?” “Lize, I hear dey’s found ol’ marse Phil guilty of bigamy” “What’s bigamy?” “Havin’ two wives.” “Huh! Dat ol’ scamp is prob’ly guilty o’ trigonometry.” Could Cupid Work in Daylight?
