Original contributions of the aspiring authors include 23 short stories and essays, 11 musical compositions, 83 poems, and 13 plays. Taken from Apollo, the classical mythological god of youth, beauty, music, song, and prophecy, the Apolliad was named by Dr. Allison Gaw of the S. C. department of English language and llteratura. The movement was first established in 1925 for the purpose of stimulating talented college students to sented before an audience of authors, artists, und critics. Zane Grey. Marquis Busby. Bliss Carmen, Alexander Stewart. Frederick VVarde, and Dorothy iladdox are among the critics who have previewed the programs in previous years. “Sending Grandpa to Heaven," a play submitted in the 1929 Apolliad by T. Reg Arkell, senior student, was recently released by a New Yolk publisher, while the works ol Dorothy Davis and Annette Larson, former students at Troy, have been published as a result of campus presentation in the annual Apolliad. Winners of this year's Trojan Apolliad will be announced April 1. To The Editor Guffaw, England, March 10 (To the Editor of the Daily Trojan): George Bernard Shaw suggests that the only effective way to bring about prohibition enforcement in this country is to provide the working classes with better pay and less working hours. In this way their desire for liquor can be overcome by getting them interested in wholesome recreations, like sports, radio programs, libraries, and theaters. Mr. Shaw claims that he cured a drunk-aiu uf VNue-bettiiufc by getting him interested in beating a drum in the village drum corps. Here is the open sesame to civic reform. The palm greasing habits of our oflicials can be cured by requiring them to put in a few hours daily in a gas station greasing cars. Yours for official greasing, MORRIE CHAIN. Officials Asked To List Classes Graduate Student Wins Second Prize In Essay Contest Karl Tunberg, an S. C. graduate student, has just received notice that he won the second prize of $150 in a national essay writing contest conducted by Steinway and Sons. The subject was “Why every American should be proud of the contribution of Steinway and Sons to civilization.” “I am especially proud of Mr. Tunberg because he received his essay training in the Trojan English department,” Dr. Louis Wann chairman of the department said of the contestant. "He was awarded his degree of bachelor of arts by S. C. in February, and is now taking graduate work in the English department.” The winning paper discussed the Steinway piano and its contribution to American art. President To Leave For East Tomorrow With university business as his object President R. B. von Klein Smid, of Southern California, will leave sometime tomorrow on a ten uay trip in the east. He w ill spend most of liis time in New York City, it w’as announced today.

Captain Johnnie Lehners closed Ills collegiate basketball career last night when ordered from the floor because of four personal fouls. He and Jack Gardner, Troy’s high point man with 14 digits, received the only ovation given. Ralph Calrney, Husky guard, whose first year ot varsity competltoin as a sophomore placed him in the conference title playoffs, left the game reluctantly, even when because of too many fouls.

It Is dividual and not the educational value of a university course is given by Dr. Howard R. Taylor, director of the personnel bureau of the University of Oregon, as the determining element in accounting for the fact that college graduates earn higher salaries than men who discontinued educational study after graduation from high school. Dr. Taylor pointed out that, although statistics show the earning power of the college graduate to be greater, it does not follow that a man benefits financially by attending or graduating from a university. “The higher salaries paid to college graduates," he explained, "result in most cases from the superior native ability which the individual must possess in order to complete the four-year course, rather from any educational value he may from sources where the significance of this fact is not taken into consideration that the frequent fallacious reports on the financial advantages attendant on college training arise.” Regarding the reliability of a student’s scholarship record as a basis for predicting the extent of his success after graduation, Dr. Taylor cited statistics showing that the greater per cent of suclessful men u-flr.

Winners of this year's Trojan Apolliad will be announced April 1. To The Editor Guffaw, England, March 10 (To the Editor of the Daily Trojan): George Bernard Shaw suggests that the only effective way to bring about prohibition enforcement in this country is to provide the working classes with better pay and less working hours. In this way their desire for liquor can be overcome by getting them interested in wholesome recreations, like sports, radio programs, libraries, and theaters. Mr. Shaw claims that he cured a drunk-aiu uf VNue-bettiiufc by getting him interested in beating a drum in the village drum corps. Here is the open sesame to civic reform. The palm greasing habits of our oflicials can be cured by requiring them to put in a few hours daily in a gas station greasing cars. Yours for official greasing, MORRIE CHAIN.

It was S. C.’s game most of the time, but not until flve minutes before the finish wh e n Frank Smith dropped a neat basket, was the title cinched t o the Trojan masthead. Captain Johnnie Lehners closed Ills collegiate basketball career last night when ordered from the floor because of four personal fouls. He and Jack Gardner, Troy’s high point man with 14 digits, received the only ovation given. Ralph Calrney, Husky guard, whose first year ot varsity competltoin as a sophomore placed him in the conference title playoffs, left the game reluctantly, even when because of too many fouls.

It Is dividual and not the educational value of a university course is given by Dr. Howard R. Taylor, director of the personnel bureau of the University of Oregon, as the determining element in accounting for the fact that college graduates earn higher salaries than men who discontinued educational study after graduation from high school. Dr. Taylor pointed out that, although statistics show the earning power of the college graduate to be greater, it does not follow that a man benefits financially by attending or graduating from a university. “The higher salaries paid to college graduates," he explained, "result in most cases from the superior native ability which the individual must possess in order to complete the four-year course, rather from any educational value he may from sources where the significance of this fact is not taken into consideration that the frequent fallacious reports on the financial advantages attendant on college training arise.” Regarding the reliability of a student’s scholarship record as a basis for predicting the extent of his success after graduation, Dr. Taylor cited statistics showing that the greater per cent of suclessful men u-flr.

But they do suggest, however, that the attitude of the individual to his college work ls likely to be cnarr.cteristlc of his later efforts." asket.
