On Tuesday, the tenth of O c tober, we were extremely for tunate in hearing in chapel the youthful violinist, John Duryee. Although seemingly a young man, he displayed a very good tech nique, and his tone was excel lent. After his opening piece, the First Movement of Mendelssohn’ s Violin Concerto, the applause was almost deafening. Since it con tinued he could do nothing else but give us an encore. This he did in as charming a manner as the first one, if not more so. His selection was “Shonin Rosemarin,” by Kreisler. Although this was by no means a long number, it was as well received as the first. We hope Mr. Duryee will have the enthusiastic greeting wher ever he goes that he had in Pin gry. He resides in Elizabeth.

RECORD
CHESS CLUB (Continued from Page 1, Col. 1) team. Those selected were: Bob Hill, winner of last year’ s school tourna ment; Ken McCullam, runner up; Tel Mook, president of the club, and Joe Engel. Hill, of course, played first man and encountered very stiff opposition. His opponent was far more experi enced than he, but nevertheless Bob stuck right to it with the indomitable spirit that he has already shown on the gridiron and at times seriously threatened his opponent by tactfully complicated schemes. Bob had not quite enough tricks to match with those of his adversary and he lost in a very close contest. McCullam, play ing the second position, also met a more experienced opponent. Ken held the honors as far as duration was con cerned for his game was the longest of the four. The match was a very even one, and its outcome was in doubt up to the last move. Ken played a very clever game, and might have won if the tide of luck had been flow ing in his direction. Playing the third position, Tel Mook held the honors as far as non-duration, or brevity, was concerned. This match came to a conclusion a few minutes before Bob H ill’ s, which was second to finish, but Tel was on the losing end of the de cision. It was very closely contested, but to no avail. Joe Engel, playing fourth man, plunged into a struggle which was not quite as long as McCullam’ s, but equally as interesting. Joe came closer to winning a match for Pingry than any of the other three, but he finally succumbed another vic tim.
DOUBLES TOURNEY (Continued from Page 1, Col. 2) were having a hard time putting Eastmond and MacSkimming out of the running, but they finally came through with a 6-2, 11-9 win. In the semi final round Mook and Bender E., defeated Bean and Bender J. The scores was 6-1, 7-5, and this match afforded the best tennis yet seen in the tournament.
GLEE CLUB (Continued from Page \, Col. 5) is an activity which should be taken just as seriously as any form of athle tics for the sake of making the organi zation worthy of note, if not to show “school spirit.” All said, however, most of the boys are trying hard and sincerely to help Mr. Shrewsbury. We hope that Pingry will have a splendid Glee Club in the near future, and ex pect to have relations with other schools along the musical line this and succeeding years. stay in Paris an interesting one, as sisting us on a trip to Versailles and Malmaison. The summer experiences taught me and other American scouts that “ for eigners” are only other fellows like ourselves, whom we were very loathe to leave even after only a few days of friendship. Four hundred American boys went to Hungary this summer. They brought back a new meaning of the term, “International Good Will.” The boys of other countries are our pals, comrades whom we know and love, and our association may some day be a safeguard against that most destruc tive plague of humanity called war.
Tradition O f School BORDEN TO WN GAME (Continued from Page 1, Col. 5) Smashed B Faculty a touchdown. This run is one ot the We note with consternation that an Innovation has been introduced into our schedule, and Innovations spell the destruction of Tradition. Behind locked doors, amidst clouds of smoke, and between great draughts, these schemers against the commonweal have plotted the downfall of humanity. This is an age of science. Mechan ical devices are replacing manual la bor. Notice how the auto has re placed the horse. The noble beast, so sympathetic with the wishes of its master, is seen only in front of icewagons, and at horse races. Auto rac ing is replacing horse racing. But Scientific Progress is not syn onymous with Human Progress. Again, let us take a horse. Let us take two horses! When a young blood of forty years ago wished to return home after a hard evening in a saloon, he climbed into his carriage and fell asleep. The faithful horse needed no guidance to avoid telephone poles and other obstacles. Nowadays, when a drunk comes out of a speak, he slouches into his 85m.p.h. auto and speeds away. The result is inevitable. So it must be admitted that this gra dual displacement of Nature by Sci ence will incur the downfall of civili zation. We realize it, but what do we do? We stand by while nefarious elements combine against us, and surge forth from their hidden places to stab us in the dark. In case you wonder what we are talking about (dont’be ashamed to admit it; we can understand your doubt), we refer to that outrage per petrated under the name of Efficiency over a week ago. By the order of the Head, who might have relented had not his colleagues egged him on, the signal for waiters shall issue from a twinkling bell rather from the rasping throat of Norton. To those of us who have spent years in observation of this unique speci men (homo Nortonicus), whose most spectacular characteristic is a sten torian cry and much banging of doors a few moments previous to lunch, the discontinuance of this local color will cause much grief. To many of us, this was not merely a signal, but, as to the Minute Men of yore, a call to service. The passing away of this colorful tradition has created in our hearts an emptiness, an insatiable longing which cannot be denied. How long will it last?
