Y. M. DIRECTORS
ENJOY SUPPER
AT FLINN HALL'
DR. D. R. PORTER SPEAKS
Tell of Work That Can Be Ac
complished By Campus
Organizations
The Board of Directors of the Y.M.
C.A. and the prospective leaders of
next years work, had the pleasure of
hearing two address last night at a
supper meeting at Flinn Hall. The
speakers were Dr. David R. Porter,
senior secretary of the student work
of America, and J. W. Bergthold, the
regional secretary for the Souther,
district.
Dr. Porter is a graduate of Yale
University and also a distinguished
Rhodes scholar at Oxford. In addition
to this he holds the unique distinction
of being the only football player who
has ever made a touchdown against
Harvard after a run of 110 yards.
Dr Porter confined his talk to the
expansion of the student association.
The student associations were the only
international organization that with
stood the shock of the World War.
The characteristics of all of the stu
dent associations according to I)r. Por
ter is life and vitality. He attributed
the source of the powers of the student
organizations to the following factors;
the initative ability of the students, the
fact that the movement covers the
whole campus and is. non-d'eneminat
ional, and that it is world-wide in its
scope. He challenged the members of
the Y to carry on a great work which
is stimulating in that it is often im
possible to attain the desired end. The
sum and substance of his challenge was
that it. the Y and its members, and it
alone that stands as a last line of de
fense in keeping the incoming fresh
men on the right road.
Mr. Bergthold made a short im
pressive talk in which he charactized
the trouble with the students of to
clay is that they try to engage in too
many activities. Hei issuedl a wvord of
caution along this line, and advised
the meni to think things through and
not try to do so much in quantity.
Mr. J. 0. Van Metre p)residled at the
meeting. Among those present wecre B.
A. Schnell, state student secretary;
Professors Stodd(ard and Hankin-s;
Frank Meeks; Dr. L~. L. Carpenter; R.
