the bottles are those of well-known
and expensive brands, but when
Mississippi State zones, the bottles
are always branded with names not
even the janitors have ever heard OF.
They think the rotten brands account
for the fact that Miss. State fans are
always more disorderly than those OF
Ole Miss!
Now, it's time for editor Emmer-
ich to be insulted: Mississippi State
is his Alma Mater. )
Mary concludes her column or the
subject saying:
Seriously, having attended LSU
for a brief time, / know what a great
school it is and / must confess that
there was a tiny spark of resentment
in my own mind over the editorial.
And for this reason: 1t seems to me
that Editor Emmerich is asking DR..
Stoke to put himself in a rather i'm
possible position: that of an ungraci-
Gus host. In short, must President
Stoke henceforth search every Mis-
SisSippian who comes to an LSU
game, to insure that he doesn't drink
excessively while attending a game?
1.-The truth of the business is this:
the wrong lies with Mississippi and
her hypocritical attitude toward
liquor. AS Alice Stringer said, oft
entimes Mississippians who go to
Louisiana take their hair down" in
this unseemly fashion because they
are not, as our neighboring citizens
Of Louisiana are, accustomed to
much of the stuff at a time. The
shame is Mississippi's, not DR..
Stokes. He heads a great institution
but somehow | can't picture him in
the role of a host who denies us en-
trance to LSU ballgames because we
we don't know how to behave like
adults"
The Lexington advertiser. [volume] (Lexington, Miss.) 1904-1985, 1947-11-13

In commenting on the Emmerich
editorial Mary Cain, editor of the
Summit Sun and a neighbor of Oil
ver's, said a friend of hers from
Louisiana, called her protesting the
editorial written by the McComb
editor.
Mary said she tried to explain to
the caller that she Mary thought
Oliver was not condemning the
President of the University, who Is
newcomer and unfamiliar with the
strange antics of Mississippians on
a binge in Louisiana" but was simp-
ly urging DR.. Stoke, the LSU prexy,
to make himself felt as the custodian
of the stadium. Mary said she didn't
thing she convinced worth a darn"
But the lady did brighten up enough
to tell her what they consider a
very funny story at LSU: 1t seems
that there is a great deal of discus
sion among janitors after the various
games, because of the varieties of
whiskey bottles they find. They al
ways say that when Ole Miss visits,

Virginia Counci|U Urges
Clinics for Alcoholics
BY the Associated Press

RICHMOND, Va, Oct. 20.-The
Virginia Advisory Legislative Coun-
Gil has recommended establish
ment OF clinics in various sections
OF the State to work in conjunction
with an institution Or farm for the
treatment of alcoholics.
The council termed the extent of
inebriety in Virginia Shocking
and added that there are substan-
TALLY no effective methods being
taken for the prevention or control
Of inebriety and excessive drinking. ="
Unfortunately" the council ad-
ded, society has adopted a rather
'do-nothing' attitude toward this
very serious problem with which we
are faced in the Commonwealth.
At the present time, inebriates are
committed to the altogether made
quate facilities at Staunton.
I'm practice, this merely amounts
to a sobering-up station for these
unfortunates. 1t does nothing to-
ward curing or controlling their
addiction to alcohol or in any way
to insure that they will not be i'm
mediately recommitted upon being
discharged.
Five clinics were recommended
These would be located in the Tide
water area, in the Richmond area
one in Northern Virginia, one in the
Charlottesville Staunton area and
one in the southwest portion of the
State.
The council said these clinics
should be operated in conjunction
with psychiatric centers. which
would be adjacent to general hos
pitals.

NEW YORK, Oct. 20.-Selected
steels, oils, motors, rails and indus
trials resumed the forward swing In
today's stock market, although in
termittent selling restrained many
leaders.
Dealings were fast from the start
with big blocks expanding volume
Occasional slowdowns appeared, but
gains of fractions to or more points
predominated near the fourth hour
Buying again was based mainly on
business optimism, in addition to the
feeling that European dollar relief
and growing domestic needs would
bolster corporate progress for some
time to come. Lessening worries
over foreign affairs. with the French
elections deemed bullish, inspired
purchasing. Accounts were light
ened here and there by those who
thought technical correction may
