-BLACKsBURG.- June / .. r7~-
After the spirited meeting Of the Nir-
ginia Polytechnic Institute Alumni AS
ISOLATION Tuesday afternoon. in which
the anti iSarringer element was over
whelmingly defeated by supporters OF
the administration, it Is not belieVed
the head OF the institution VIII be
harassed with charges from graduates
for at least year
The annual meeting was perhaps
the most stormy the association has
ever held. there being two distinct
factions both with carefully lala
plans and one bent on endorsing Dr.
Barringers course and the other on
olecting slate of officers who would
continue the fight inaugurated against
the executive by Lawrence Priddy, OF
New York. and his followers.
Warm debates, long and forceiui
arguments on the constitution and by
laws. the eligibility of members OF
this years senior class to vote, the
elimination Of proxies and a resolution
commendatory OF Or. Barringer, con-
tinued the meeting at a high pitch
of interest so long that the memb ers
of the association did not witness the
annual sham battle and were almost
an hour late at the luncheon given
in their honor. So heated did the
strife become that the majority OF
the anti Barringcr men left Blacks
burg last night without attending the
associations annual smoker.
Officers Elected.
The following officers were elected:
President. Allen T Eskridge. Of Pu-
iaski: first vice president. J. W Stuii.
of Clifton Forge; second vice. presi-
dent, l.. O'Shaughnessy, a member OF
the University of Pennsylvania facul-
~; secretary. J. S. A. Johnson, of the
V p. l., and treasurer. Harvey Price.
of the V. p. /.
The election OF these men gives the
Barringer supporters control OF the
association The first act of the Bar
ringer faction was to endorse the
presidents policy. This can be taken
az an indication OF what IT will do
in the future toward preventing any
further attack on the executive by
mem bers of the association.
About seyenty-five members attend
ed tho meeting. President Priddy, who
filed the charges against DR.. Bar
ringer last winter. and several of his
co-workers were armed with proxies
sufficient TO carry the elections and
draft any resolutions that the Prid-
fiEs.s@ ssligiTe have cared 20 dgaw uY
and pass.
Attorney Harry NJ. Smith. Jr., Of
Richmond. who is member OF the
board OF directors of the V. p. L.. n
loyal supporter Of DIR, Rarringer and
an enthusiastic alumnus, hurled a
hoomsheii into the Priddyites' camp
Immediately after the meeting was
called to order, by offering resolu-
ton providing that proxies should not
be voted, until committee on Gre
dentials had passed on the matter.
Prof. Drinkhard. DR.. Price and
Prof. Wilson were named as the
members of the committee. The two
first named members reported that

The case was an appeal from a con-

1t is with unfeigned pleasure that
the News announces the candidacy of
Hon. w. ]. Townsend, Jr., today to
fill out the uneXpired term of the late
Hon. G. C. Stokes in the upper house
of the Texas legislature. No one in
the district, we are sure, is more ably
qualified to serve the people in this
capacity and we are also certain that
no one could be selected who would
come nearer representing his whole
constituency in whatever matters that
might come before them in which he
would have to cast his vote.
The judge was born and reared, in
Angelina county, is thirty-five Years
of age, an able lawyer ynd gradu.te

BIG CROWD At A|RDoME
Despite Shower of Yesterday Evening
An Unusually Large Attendance
Visited This Play House.
The management says:


Even after the rain of yesterday
evening had stopped, the appearances
of the armament did not justify even
one of Texas Oldest prophets to turn
out rfor fear OF getting wet, for there
was not star visible and the clouds
were simminently" dark But Pales-
tine had set upon rounding out a day
of pleasure yesterday, and a little
thing like this weather interference
was not going to stop any of them.
No, stree, and the Labor Day festivi-
ties were not over until every one
had seen the Capital VS.. Labor" play
at the Airdome by the CurtisST Com
.edy company, which opened a weeks
engagement here last night, and this
part of the occasion was not sighted
in the face of the weather savoring
more like an April "all evening show
er."
According to Tim O'Connell, the
manager, the largest crowd in the
history of the Airdome was present
All records were broken for attend
ance, and several were turned away
When asked what would have been
done ON a clear evening, Tim only
looked quizzical, and replied thus:
Don't know what would have hap
pened."

their initial performance was o. k

Tonight they will present one of Mr..

says made the waves laugh" in At

The band and orchestra, it is said,
will render several new selections to-
night prior to the performance, this
part of the entertainment being quite
an attraction within itself. The must
