ALMA STUDENT
FROM RUSSIA
IN ARMY CAMPED ON BANKS OF
RIVER FROM WHICH CITY'S
NAME WAS PROCURED.

That the Y NJ c. A. and y. w. C..
A. did not wage vain campaign
when they. made their drive for funds
for a scholarship for foreign stu
dent last winter was demonstrated
when the recipient of that scholarship
arrived last Wednesday. Alexander
Dawydoff, which is the young mans
name, is a former Russian citizen of
days of the Cars regime, dweller in
a city under the Bolsheviki control,
later member in the Russian army
fighting against the Reds, finally a
messenger and interpreter for the
English army and in service on II. VI.
S. Destroyer Smyrna Three months
ago arrived in New York City under
the care Of the Russian Christian
Students Committee and now, due to
the generosity Of last years students
and of the College is student at
Alma. Such in brief is the history
Of Almas newest and most interest
ing Freshman.
al" as he is already known to the
denizens Of Pioneer Hall, was at one
time son Of the Governor Of Kiev
Province az time when the Little
Father" ruled the land Of the North
ern Bear, and also was a student in a
Russian "Gymnasium.' The vicissi-
tudcs of war left Mr.. Dawydoff in
Kicv nine months while the Bolsheviki
ruled the city. His experiences under
their rule were many. lie finally
escaped TO the Crimea where General
Wranwel was disputing the ascend
ency Of Leninc and Trotsky with a
white" Russian army. Serving in
this force until sickness compelled his
discharge Alan finally reached Con-
stantinople in the service Of the Eng
fish. Our foreign students knowledge
Of German and Russian as well as
French and English made him valu-
able as an Interpreter and messenger
until finally he took service with the
English on board the destroyer
Smyrna" then operating in eastern
waters. DaWydoffs mother and sis
ter were in this country so his even
tual arrival in New York meant q
happy family reunion. Thus it can
be seen that our guest has had an
eyentful career for the last few years
and may we'll be thought 20 be ready
10 settle down for four uneventful
year, in college.
An interesting incident in ccnnec-
tion with Mr.. Dawydoff's stay with
us is that while engaged in the
Crimea he was at one time encamped
on the banks of the river Alma and
stayed at a little town in that region
by the namc Of Alma. 1t win be re-
membered that our own city Of Alma
received It's name from the battle Of
st. Alma fought on the banks Of the
river Alma during the war Of the
Crimea.
It will hc remembered that the Col
lcgc gave half and the Y. NJ c. A.
and Y w. G. A. the other half Of the
amount necessary to raise this schol-
arship for truly missionary under
taking, and il is to be hoped that
when the appeal is made again this
December the College may do as well
or better.

SOUTHERN BREEDERS
FIGHT FREE RANGES
Cattle Men Meeting at Columbia
"Swat the Tick"

BARLOW, Feb. 26.-That the lead
ing cattle men Of the south are unal-
terably opposed to continuance of the
free cattle range imposition, and that
they are strongly opposed to the
transportation OF ticky cattle by rail
or otherwise, was shown by unani-
nous adoption Of strong resolutions at
the recent annual meeting of the
Southern Cattlemen's association, held
at Columbia.
Noted authorities discussed the ne
cessity of getting rid OF cattle-infest-
ing parasites and diseases, and a dec
laration in one of the resolutions ad-
opted reads:
Under a system of free range 1t is
impossible to improve the cattle OF the
South, or to control the spread of
contagious diseases"
1t was particularly fitting that these
resolutions should be adopted at a
meeting in Columbia. the capital of
South Carolina, one OF the first of the
Southern states to abolish the free
range after a bitter political fight. The
demand went forth from the meeting
that all other Southern states do like
wise.
The meeting was held at the time
when Louisiana, the last state in the
union to accept Florida's ticky cattle,
barred her ports against these cattle.
and prominent speakers expressed
qualification at the fact that the
Florida No-Fence league, organized at
Barlow, is making a winning fight
for abolition Of the free range and
eradication OF the tick in Florida.
The need of having progressive peo-
pie urge their legislators to submit
the proposition to vote OF the people
at the general election IN November
Is strongly stressed by officers of the
league.

Teams Are Called by Many Fanciful
Applications Some of Which Are
Meaningless.
(By The Associated Press)

ATLANTA, Ga, Fe'. 23.-Students
of southern universities and colleges
delight in attaching to their football
and baseball teams some picturesque
nick-names. The reason for some of
these names is easily fathomable but
for others cannot be determined, ex-
cept that. they have been used for
years.
The list of nick-names and some OF
the reasons for them, include:
The Praying Colonies, Centre col
lege, Danville, KY, because they pray
before entering contests and because
they come from Kentucky where COL
onels abound.
The Flying Cadets, Virginia mill
cause they are military cadets and
have a fast team.
The Generals, Washington and Lee
University, Lexington, Va, because
their university as named for Gen
erals Washington and Lee.
The Fighting Volunteers, University
OF Tennessee, Knoxville, Tenn, be
cause OF the title OF The Volunte er
state earned by Tennessee in the
Mexican war.
The Commodores, Vanderbilt uni
versity, Nashville Tenn, because their
institution was named after Commo-
dore Vanderbilt.
The Hatchetites, George Washing
ton university, Washington, D. C,

cherry tree-according to popular
story.
The Indians, William and Mary coll
Iege, Williamsburg, Va, because the
was founded back In In
dian times.
The Plainsmen, Alabama polytech-
mic institute, Auburn, Ala, because the
