THE CADET I N THE J. M. H A L L A T 8 P. M. PUBLISHED WEEKLY BY IHE CORPS OF CADETS VIRGINIA MILITARY INSTITUTE VOL. XX.

COPENHAVER'S MES-SAGES MAKE GREAT IMPRESSION During the past week large num-bers of cadets have attended the re-vival services held in Jackson Me-morial Hall by Dr. J. C. Copenhaver of Baltimore. As these meetings were entirely voluntary, the attend-ance becomes particularly impres-sive, testifying to the attractive per-sonality of the speaker and the in- * spiring nature of his message. Dr. Copenhaver addressed the ca-dets on such subjects as gambling, profanity, selfishness, religion in the lives of great men and "the greatest sin in America today," the sin of de-nying Christ and the air and com-fort he alone can bring. The speak-er's message was delivered in a man-ner which was sure to appeal to ca-dets and there can be no doubt that the Corps has been benefited im-measureably by his visit. As he goes back to his congregation in Baltimore, Dr. Copenhaver carries with him our best fcood wishes and our hearty appreciation of what he has done for us during his all too brief visit here. It has become customary that ser-vices such as these should be held here at this time every year. On each occasion a speaker of a differ-ent denomination is invited to ad-dress the Corps and the cadets them-selves take a large part in the serv-vices. THE CHAMPION" PLAYS TONIGHT PLANS FOR MINSTREL LAUNCHED Dramatists Present Annual Play to Corps Lengthy Series Rehearsals Over; All Scenes Polished. Varsity Quint Loses to • U.ofS. C. and V . P . I. Both Scores Close and Games Exciting. Harner and McGlone Do Fine Work During Week. UNIV. OF S. C. GAME In the closest and most interesting game played this season V. M. I. fell before the University of South Caro-lina to the tune of 42 to 40. It was a good game throughout and it look-ed as if the Flying Squadron would come out on top for quite a while. South Carolina started the fire-works when Rogers sank one from the side. Then the fun started. First one team and then the other sprang into the lead. Time and again both teams intercepted passes and marched down the floor for a coun-ter, with the Squadron slightly ahead. The second half was almost the same. Rogers and Fair did the brunt of Carolina's scoring, while McGlone and Harner were keeping V. M. I. in the running. Then it looked as if V. M. I. would pull away to a victory when Harner gathered three beauties in a row. But with only two minutes to play and the score 40 to 38 in V. M. L's favor, Fair sank one from mid-court, and H with only a minutes left, White got another which threw Carolina into the lead. For Carolina, Rogers, Fair, and Glub Makes Trip to Sweetbrier Saturday Tonight in the Jackson Memorial Hall, "The Champion," a three-act comedy by Thomas Louden and A. E. Thomas, will be presented by the V. M. I. Dramatic Club as their an-nual offering under the direction of Mrs. Kent Craig Lambert and Col-onel T. A. E. Moseley. The story is laid in the home of Mr. Burroughs (R. E. M. Goolsby) at Knotley, Eng-land. The time is the present. Lady Elizabeth Galton (G. C. Scott) is vis-iting in the Burroughs' home and act-ing as their social chaperone in or-der to tide herself over a period of financial embarrassment due to the supposed failure of a silver mine left to her by her father, and managed for her by Lord Brockington (F. M. Ansley), an unprincipled but polish-ed English nobleman who hopes to gain possession of the mine and also to marry Lady Elizabeth. George Burroughs (J. W. Mann), the elder brother who is conducting a campaign for Parliament on the Conservative ticket, as well as David (H. H. Staudt), the younger brother who plans to enter the ministry, are much disconcerted by the return to England of William Burroughs (T. A. Klein), a more or less prodigal son who had run away from home fifteen years before this time. The entire family is greatly cha-grined when Mr. Mooney (J. N. Jones), a tavern keeper, unwittingly gives to them and to the press the information that their son is none other than "Gunboat Williams," lightweight boxing champion of the world, and William again prepares to leave home in order to spare their feelings. Upon taking leave of Lady Elizabeth, with whom he has fallen in love at sight, he finds what her true financial condition is and deter-mines to inquire further into the ORCHESTRA TO RE-CORD "SPIRIT "--WILL MAKE EUROPEAN TRIP Columbia Phonograph Co.

F. Brew-ington and Mr. R. T. Norman, the di-rector and manager, respectively, of the orchestra by which several rec-ords will be made. He requested the Orchestra to record their interpre-tation of the V. M. I. Spirit; he is leaving the other numbers to the dis-cretion of the director. These records will be made in Baltimore during the next few months, and will be ready for distribution about the first of June. Alumni, cadets and friends of V. M.

The original idea of issuing an engineering number—which was a complete surprise to the Corps — was excellently carried out. Eddie Kriete, "Engineer," is re-sponsible for the unique cover—a blue print. Congratulations are ex-tended to Miss Lettice Lee Coulling, Miss Ruth Wilson, and Sam Russel for their drawings, and the poems of Miss Louise White are more pleas-ing for their striking originality. The "Engineer's Number" of Sir Sniper is filled from cover to cover with incomparable wit and humor and as a whole is characterized by sophisticated drawings and catchy verses; it continues the high stan-dard previously set by the Sniper, leads us to expect better things, and should we predict, prove the most popular published this year. " A " Co. vs. " E " Co. Wednesday afternoon again found the Company basketeers in action, and displaying a greatly improved brand of basketball. Great enthu-siasm is being shown by all the teams, and it is hoped that future varsity material will be uncovered during the course of the tournament. "A" Company continued its win-ning ways by sending "E" Company down in defeat to the tune of 33 to 16, and assuming the lead in the tournament. Crockett and Harrison led the scorers, each having 11 points to their credit. The line-up: "A" Co.—33 Harrison, 11 Crockett, 11 Cheek, 4 Arnold, 2 Porter, 1 Dean Ruffin Shucker Smith, R. K. West, C.

Interpolat-ing the dreary stretch between Mid- Winters and Easter comes the one oasis in our desert of gloom: The annual Second Class Minstrel. In the second week of March before a packed house of first nighters the Black Face Follies—bigger and bet-ter than Barnum's—will open at its old stand, the Jackson Memorial Hall. Little can the average mind grasp the oncoming maelstrom of mirth and melody, the hurricane of humor and harmony that awaits it. Nevertheless, what is to be is to be and nothing short of an epidemic of small-pox can keep the corps from witnessing the greatset aggregation of funny bone ticklers that ever faced the footlights. The plan of the show differs vast-ly from last year, both in arrange-ment and elaborateness. The circle end of it is divided into two parts with three snappy, slam bang, screaming acts interspersed between. The experienced gained last year will be a big factor hi the entertain-ing qualities. Brewington exerted himself to such an extent in compos-ing such music that George White and Earl Carroll will tear their hair at the thought of opposition. The old head-liners from last season are back coupled with a meteoric dis-play of stars whose performance this season will firmly establish them in the cosmic—as you were—comic firmament. No, it can't be helped, the show is bound to be a hit, regardless. After careful consideration the Committee selected the following circle: Inter-locutor— Ed.

RATS PICK UP GAME FROM V.P.I. FRESHMEN Break Unlcky Streak In Hard Fighting Game. SCOTT A N D S W A NK STAR FOR HOME T E AM V. M. I. RATS vs. V. P. 1. FRESH-MEN After tasting defeat for the past few games, the Rats shook off the jinx and decisively defeated their ancient rivals from V. P. I., 29-23, last Saturday afternoon. The early part of the first period proved to be a pretty tight tussle and at one time the score stood 11-10 in favor of V. P. I., rjut a timely field goal by Scott put the Rats in the lead and they were never seriously threatened after that. The half ended V. M. I., 18; V. P. I., 13.

I.'s varsity wrestling team ran roughshod over the University of Virginia matmen in Memorial Gym-nasium, Charlottesville, last Monday night, winning by the score of 23 to 6. Two decisions completed Vir-ginia's scoring, while the Cadets reg-istered four falls and a decision. Mayfield, in the 115-lb. class, met Johnston of Virginia, the two going to the mat in the first minute with Mayfield on top, the latter securing a fall with a double arm lock in 5 minutes and 19 seconds. The 125- Ib. class was somewhat closer, with Davis securing a time advantage of 5 minutes 35 seconds over Salee (Va.). Wilson and Ferrebee in the 135-lb. class wrestled a close match in which Wilson was on top of his Virginia opponent part of the time, but lost by a narrow time advant-age of 1 minute and 15 seconds. Gillen, 145-lb. class, making his mat debut for V. M. I., was held for an advantage of 6 minutes 15 sec-onds by Bosworth, Virginia, making the score 8 to 6 in favor of the Ca-dets. With the heavier weights, V. M. I. got under way and Virginia never .threatened. Woodbury and Williams (Va.) met in the middle-weight division, Woodbury clearly surpassing his man in all respects and throwing him with a double arm lock and body hold in 3 minutes and 39 seconds. Fields was equally suc-cessful, throwing Captain Peyton of Virginia with a hammerlock in 6 minutes and 2 seconds.

The highly touted University of North Carolina Boxing team met a tartar when they engaged the Cadet agregation in the local ring Satur-day night, nosing out a 4 to 3 victory. In the light weight, V. M. I. was far superior, winning the first three bouts easily, but the Tarheels were especially strong in the heavier classes and succeeded in taking the four remaining contests. V. M. I. got off to a flying start when Captain Hardenburg stepped into the ring against Carpenter. He easily outpointed and outslugged the Carolinian, knocking him down three times during the second round. At
