Chairman Cordell Hull of the Dem
ocratic National Committee, declares
that the recent elections are mandate
to President Harding to abandon the
ship subsidy bill. The day before the
elections Mr.. Hull issued a prediction
that the Democrats would carry both
Houses, while the Republican leaders
predicted that the majority would be
lowered, giving 40 in the House as the
maximum The Republican majority
is about 90 so that the Republican
prediction fell off about 30 per cent,
while the Hull prediction was off one
hundred per cent, being all wrong
Furthermore the ship subsidy bill
figured little if at all in the elections
except for the money which was I'M
doubtedly spent on behalf OF British
shipping interests anxious to insure
the defeat of the bill if it could be
hlbustered out of the present short
session OF Congress.

Utility codes that permit it.-Bob Dun
bar.
Because of the questionable tactics
that have been laid at the doors of the
colleges in Vermont, from the outside,
it is up to the three institutions to get
together during the long winter and
show the world that they are all above
question and as clean and square as
any college in the country. They
should remove this cloud If the ell
igibility codes are at fault they should
be righted. In view of the circum-
stances, the proposal of the editor OF
the Middlebury Campus, published i'll
the issue Of the College paper before
the Vermont game last Saturday, des-
serves notice The proposal opens the
way for a complete understanding be
tween the three Vermont colleges and
for the establishment of uniform elig
Utility rules which will place them on
the same high plane that is enjoyed by
many other New England colleges.
The editor suggests that if "Presi-
dent Bailey of the University of Yer
mont President Plumley of Norwich
University, and President Moody of
Middlebury would agree upon holding
a conference at some centrally located
place. inviting a member of the fac
ulty, a representative of the student
body. and the head coach of each of
the colleges to meet with them, deh-
mite set of rules could be formulated
and agreed upon The combined ideas
Of such a group, formulated into def
mite. written rules, and approved by
the student bodies and faculties of the
three institutions, would do more for
the lettering of athletics, than any
single move that could possibly be
made.
Among other specific remedies sug-
gested by the College editor would be
clause providing for a committee tc
pass on the eligibility of every member
of the Norwich, Vermont and Middle
bury teams President Plumley has al

conference. President Moody, We
understand is heartily in sympathy
with it as no doubt President Bailey
is. The way is open In the interest

SYMBOLS

Middlebury College has chosen
BLACK Panther" as the symbol to be
used in descriptive stories of College
activities, notably, and naturally, ath-
letic events. The symbol is designed
for use as Yale uses the bulldog, as
Princeton uses the tiger and Brown
the bear. BLACK Panther" is adopted
as the result of a contest for which a
cup was offered by a local merchant.
While the chosen symbol did rot win
the cup, there being a tie in the CON
test, the judges selected the panther as
best representing the expression Of the
majority of the contestants
At present, we cannot say that
"BlaCk Panther" means a great deal
when associated with Middlebury Col
lege nor would any other symbol thus
arbitrarily chosen. While it IS a fine
thing to have some symbolic emblem
linked with collegiate institution, II
seems to us as though it should core
about by some particular instance, or
natural cause, rather than be deliber-
qtelv selected To he most effective
there should be some tradition con-
nected with the symbol, 1t would
take some time before symbol chosen
in any other way could mean very
much in sentiment to a student body
or alumni.
However, as Middlebury College had
no symbol, aud found itself needing
one, the BLACK Panther" is without
doubt as good as any that could he
found without a real and valid reason
Sometime the panther may find it,
way to the hearts of Middlebury folks
and its very mention stir the red
blood At any rate, it ought to strike
terror into the hearts of opponents
right straight off the bat

SUCCESS

Though Middlebury College was de
cisively beaten in the last game of the
state championship series, supporters
of the Blue have no reason for feeling
anything but pride in the teams per
Torrance Saturday, or in the seasons
showing.
Middlebury has well trained, hard
fighting eleven, respected throughout
the East and so above question that
thev rate on the top shelf with the
foremost sport writer's on metropolitan
papers as well as the colleges who Of
fered the little college the choicest of
schedules. The work of Middlebury
elected all manner of praise from big
opponents like Harvard, Penn State
and Dartmouth and this enviable rep
utation was established without a
transgresson of the strict and honor
able eligibility code in which Middle
bury takes just pride. There is some
thing in football besides the mere win
ming of victories. Middlebury College
appreciates that fact and this is worth
three seasons of indicated teams
Not only does the team deserve
praise, but the student body, as we'll
showed good craftsmanship after the
contest in giving a clear field and I'M
disputed sway to the jubilant and en-
thusiastic Vermont rooters that they
might vent their feeling Such sports
manship has not always beer evident

The Burlington News and the Free
Press, with exultation that is quite
excusable, celebrate the wind.up OF
Vermont's football season with eulogies.
The News says that Vermont has
had a glorious season under Tom
Ready" and prays that she may 90 to
even better glory in years to come.
Their morning neighbor speaks Of the
wonders of the Ready system and asks,
What will series Of years of such
service mean for Vermont"
This is a question that is a bit del
icate, and one that only time can an
swer. The Ready system, about which
they enthuse, is apparently to build up
a team from transfers instead OF max
ing it out of raw material \ series
of years OF such tactics can mean only
one thing, and the Free Press knows
what that is.
If Vermont insists on this policy they
will sooner or later find themselves in

With the object of bringing Yer
monters into close personal touch with
men who know what road problems
are and what neighboring states are
doing to solve these problems, the Yer
mont Chamber of Commerce has ar
ranged for a meeting to be held in
Burlington next Monday An invita-
ton is issued to all citizens interested
IN road problems, and this ought to
make it pretty nearly inclusive OF
every citizen in the state.
Among the speakers are mentioned
Paul D. Sargent, chief engineer OF the
highway commission Of Maine, Fred
erick Z. Everett, highway commits
sioner of New Hampshire, and repre-
sentative of the Bureau OF Public
Roads in Washington
The road problem, as we will all
concede, is one of the most vital and
puzzling before the state today. NO
one really knows yet how il will be
permanently solved, but it is just such
conferences as the one in Burlington
Monday that will help furnish the so
luton. There should be a good at
tendance, and we hope that Addison
county will have representatives on
the job.
