At formation, so many were ab- isent that one company had to formits two platoon, into one on ac-count of Insufficient numbers.

Cooper CommandsLcrf by the hand and under the

command of Battallion AdjutantCooper, the unit marched cast pastDuke Dormitory, turned west toOpncord Kn;jd and followed Cnti- |cord Road to Main Street. Traffic Ihad to be directed in order to letthe battallion pass; people fromthe business establishments came |out to watch this .spectacle.

This was 1he second drill atDavidson in 1940- Snow and rain !

have prohibited three consecutive.formations.

However, on account ft" its nov-elty and brevity, the drill on Mon-day did not seem boring to any- i|body.

Assessment of Students In-volved in Recent Damage

Will Cover Cost

At the suggestion of Presi-dent Sam Spencer ;i measureassessing ;ill those involved inthe recent damage to collegeproperty by the throwing oisnowballs was drawn tip andput into effect by the student <

body last Wednesday,President Spcrfcer called for sugj[

gestions from the floor and threeproposals were offered. The oldplan of assessing each floor forihc clamaRc done on thai nar'ticu- ilar -ball was advocated by several.]Another proposal was that the en-1tire student body be assessed forthe ffamage.

Plan AdoptedHowever, the plan finally .ulnpf-'

ed after much discussion pro andcon stated tli.it all those n"t in- !volved in any way in the breakagenf college property must sign a:petition to thru effect. All ..thosewhose names did Mot appear there-!On were to be assessed out of theirdamage fees on an equal pro rata1>:i-i^ tor the damage inflicted.

This method of payment wasa completely voluntary measure onthe part of the student body, thefaculty participating in no waywhatsoever with the settling of thequestion. The student iHiUHCli li.T"!discussed the problem prior to tin-student body meeting and deemingii an affair of that group* theydecided that the question shouldbe presented for discussion.

Damage UnknownJust after chapel Wednesday the

petition was posted on the frontporch of Georgia and remainedthere through the following night.A* yet, the extent of the damagehas not been computed.

During the discussions from thefloor, the faults of the former sys-tem and the unfairness' of a gen-eral assessment were pointed out.It was also stated that the onlyfair way to settle this problem wasto assess only those directly in-volved in the breakage of property.

A New Ballot SystemIIktc is a movement i" tlie student body

today which i.- slowly gathering strengthfor agitation lor open politics. By tbi> itis understood that candidates will eitherstate their qualifications themselves, orhave their campaign managers state themfor them, speeches will be made accompani-ed by parades, free cigars and whateverthe party or "clique" treasury can afford.It is even rumored that this will entice stu-dents away from such attractions as llonaMassey. Idoubt it!

But will the situation be changed in anyessential? No, for the fraternity man willstill vote, with few exceptions, for the manthat his lodg'e is supporting whether he bewithin his fraternity or.not. Swapping ofvoteswillgoon;cliqueswill flourish galore.And to cap it off, as the commentator on

THE DAVIDSONIANThun,, Jan. 18, !»*"

this subject saut hist wcrk\ "But it will belegHl." And thai makes everything rosy!Truly then will politics be discussed on theporch of Georgia, instead of the first floorliali. Qf what is there to be scared?

What uill happen to those students winilo not belong to fraternities? Unless some-cm- ri-l<s their political and perhaps physicalneck t" organize them, they will still vote

for the man whom "they have heard sincetheir snphomore year is going to be electedchief Door man. And he is! If they <I(organize, they will be out voted i>n thecount!

" So let us continue with the situation Iisit is. It gives u-> something to gripe about.. . . those who are being griped at just haveto listen . . . they needn't worry. They'llLjcl elected, regardless.

IVrhaps I am now being a little nasty.1 '.lit it is the way that Isee it from my sideof tin- fence, lint I can be constructive andfor the next election, propose first, that bal-lots be dropped into locked ballot boxes in-steail of put in the hack of seats. Knocki- tired of picking up "neglected" ballotsafter a dose race. Second, that the ratingihut uslhdeill-ciHIIffcll111(111 foe present in thecounting of vote- he observed. It hasn'tm the pa-i lliird. that there also be pres-ent ai eacli cuunting of tlu- ballots a non-fraternit\ Jiian. Fourth, that the countersmake a CullscicutiuUS effort to eliminate bal-lots signed by others for those absent from( hapel.

Lilt's admit the prqbk'W frankly. 1'ntil thenun-fraternity man is encouraged to go outfor activities, until he learns the ropes inhis first two years, until he gets the neces-sar\ experience ill those- veal-* to lulfillcapably any office, he will not be and nevershatllij he elected.

Against Open PoliticsPolitics at Davidson for yeart have not been

nil that one might expect to find at such an

institution. I know tnat this hat been true forthe four yeart 1 have been here and Ithinkit is not too unsubstantiated a statement to

say that an equally questionable political situa-tion has existed for a number of years in thepast. Editorials and letters in DAVIDSON1ANSof past years seem to bear this out and alwayspopping up is the now somewhat boring butstill pertinent question: Should Davidson haveopen politics?

But 1 am not in favor of open politics at

Davidson. Perhaps if we had a school of two

thousand or more students, open politics wouldpe the only solution, but in a school of onlyseven hundred students such a system has noplace.

There has been much hue and cry about thefailure of our present system to put before thestudent body the qualifications of the candi-dates as they should be presented. But inlooking back over the men our student bodyhas elected to the important campui officesin years past, Ithink it will be admitted thatonly in few, very few, cases could better menhave been elected to these offices. Of coursethere have been exceptions, "the best man" hasnot always been chosen, but whatever thesystem of politics, open or closed, there willalways be these exceptions. There will be agoodly number who will swear that "the bestman" was not elected, in every election. 1 donot believe that open politics would to anydegree raise the calibre of our leaders.

Granted that open politics would bring outinto the open the sd-called "hypocrisy" of ourpresent system, 1 rather doubt that the elimi-nation of this evil would be a fair exchangefor the evils which are inherent in the open

political systems. Conditions in college* anduniversities in our own and neighboring stateswould hardly bear an honest investigation.Davidson students advocating such m system

because of the "corruptness" of our own would,

if as sincere as they apparently are in theircondemnation of political corruption, be forcedto really throw up their hands at circumstancessurrounding these elections. We, in scrappingclosed politics would be making a very badtrade.

Closed politics, idealistic at it may teem i«the only system in strict keeping with David*son and Davidson traditions. And say whatyou may, Davidson traditions really exist andplay an extremely important part in making'the college what it is today.

QuestionohL Week

I IFor many years Davidson iia^

had a. system of electing officerswhich was based on the candidate'squalities and personality alone.There has been no "open politic-"to far. hut recently there lias beenconsiderable agitation in favor ofa new system somewhat similar tothat used by the national parties.

So we have nicked as the une.,-tion of the week. "What do youthing of the idea of "open" politics

a» suggested by Earl Austin's arti-cle in last week's Davidsonian?"Post McLean, Senior:'I am definitely ill favor of open

politics. It serins to me it is muchbetter to come o'.(t in the open withnttr politics than to carry on thedirty, sneaking a whines which weall realize can not he excluded fromour present system. There is justtoo much hypocrisy in the system-*ve now use."Fheron Sain, Senior:I .ini in Favor of open politic- he-

cause 1 think that would eliminateto a certain extent tin politicalcombines fhat are carried on. If thisis being carried on. you might justas well come but in the open withit. I think that the campaigningof the candidate would 'put morepep in the elections..Bob Garvcy, Sophomore:

Personally I would not like tosee the system of politics changedhere at Davidson. This is one ofthe few old traditions that we haveleft, so why mil keep it? I admitthat there is some fallacy in thepresent plan, hut aren't we bigenough to overcome this,- smallerrors? I have no better plan tooffer hut I believe that1something

■conid be worked out if the energyoi our leaders was exerted to thatend. However, the student nuisi co-operate if anything is t,> sufcee'd,so let's keep our old system andpull with our leaders to get a sys-tem better than any previous one,and one that will prove that we arebetter men than our neighhors.

Porky Woodward, Sophomore:It seems that open politics are

about the only method that can'tbe used to end evils that have a-risen in past elections. Past leadershave been unsuccessful in doingaway with the ill feelin.es that ariseduring the election periods, hut Ithink open polities will remedy thisundesirable condition. Here is un-vote for open politics and betterfeelings during elections.Don Hott, Senior:

"I do not believe the solution ofthe Davidson electoral system liesin 'open politics.' The very ideaof non-fraternity vs. fraternityseems contrary to the spirit ofDavidson. So far there is no ani-mosity between those two groups.This, I believe, would arouse it.I cannot believe as Mr. Austindoes that the Slough brothers willgo bankrupt if we get 'open poli-tics.' Davidson is too small forsuch campaigns. F.vcryone knowseveryone else. 1 would certainlylike to see a solution to the prob-lem be something rather than 'openpolitics.' Because we have failedin tlie past to prohibit these evils,I see no reason .to quit trying. Ifand when our student body is madeto realize the advantage of real'no politics' system, then these com-bines, cliques, et cetera, will dis-appear. I would suggest this asj campaign of the 'Davidsonian'instead of trying to get 'open poli-'tics'. Why~ trot tTy~~Trr -nTak<v~mrrpresent system work better?"Bill Shaw, Sophomore:

"General evils connected with ourpresent system of so-called 'politics'were very aptly pointed out byFrle- in his editorial. Although thereare certain evils in his proposedopen-politics. I am inclined to be-lieve that the new system wouldhave a much better reception a-mong the students and would there-fore be an improvement over the'closed' type.Iam heartily in favorof the open {orum because every-one has a chance to impose hisideas on all without fear of hear-ing someone cry combine, et cetera.This open and above-board methodwould show the position taken bythe majority of men. It seems asthough it could be arranged tohave these open meetings preced-ing or during election period atwhich everyone could have an op-portunity to 'say his piece' and thussilence the petty hates and secretsfor all time."

Thus far Hank Bahnson, DickHudson, and Frank Ca'dweil have served as cannon fod-der in the ring. Manager Poss McLean backed upPoweil'sclaims that he was really serous about the thingby issuing the following statement: "I think my manwill put up a good fight, win, lose, or draw. He has beenin train'nsj for a week now, and is progressing well. Themain drawback is lack of sparring partners. As youknow, Powell comes from ■ a family of fighters, hisyounger brother, Monteith, being state thigh schoolchamp last year, and I am expecting the "Whizzer" touphold the reputation he has made in eastern NorthCarolina. I hope the Davidson student body will turnout en masse when he fights to support him, and I amconfident that he will give them their money's worthwhile in the ring. He will meet some tough opponents,but he has the heart of a lion, plus plenty of punchingpower, which will be developed to an even higher pitchbefore the fight. We invite the whole student body towitness the bout, and, I hope, bouts in Charlotte."

While the crowds turnout to watch the quint in action,all but a few miss the wrestling bouts which come offat regular scheduled dates, the next home meet being onFebruary 10. While they don't hog the limelight, thosemen train diligently, and work out hard every day. Thewrestling grind is one of the hardest in the athletic pro-gram, and those men have to be in real "shape" beforethey are even allowed to practice. We'd like to see morespectators at the mat meets in the future. This is arecognized intercollegiate sport, and is one sport in whichDavidsonhas ranked high in the past. Of course this yearthere has been but one meet, in which Duke eked out awin, andno forecast couldbe definite now.

If you've never seen an intercollegiate wrestling boutyou probably think they are very dull, and they do lackthe rampant color of the pro matches, but wrestling asdone under intercollegiaterules is fast and calls for bothskill and strength. Come downand support our wrestlineteam! B

Dances and still more dances isthe order t>i many colleges anduniversities for the month of Feb-ruary, Many lails and lassies willshake off the worries of past ex-aminations to swing out to thetuneof a hut trumpet or saxophone.

With several Midwinter dancesbeing promoted in colleges anduniversities near Bnvidson, there-eems to be a lack of any 'reallyhig name band- on trie Contractswith possibly one or two excep-tion->. Hob Chester, who is signedto play for the Davidson Mid-winters, seems to be as good asmany of them.

Duke DanceaDuke University's Pan-Hellenic

Council signed Artie Shavv's oldband which is..under the"'dircctionof Georgic Autd. Dukesters saythey can't tell much difference be-iIwmh the band led by Shaw and

the one led by Auld after listeningto radio programs. But it is a not-able fact that Duke fraternitieswere quite worried- about the slowsale of tickets for the January\2 anil 13 fiances.

Washington and Lee's renownedfancy dress ball will feature KayKyscr. February 2, .V For the firsttime the ball will be closed to out-siders other than the invited guestsof the university. The given reasonis that advance sales show that thegymnssiujn will be overflowing asit is.
