Sumwalt On Committee Professor In Charge Of Administration Of Five Point Program In South Administration of the five-point pro- I gram of the Kiwanis International for the year 1935 is in the hands of a coin- ? mittee composed of three men, of which Robert L. Sumwalt, professor of civil engineering here, is a member. This committee drew up the program, and will administer it through a division of the country into three sections. Professor Sumwalt was appointed by ? President William J. Carrington in rec- * ognition of his work in outlining a pro- !"( grain for the development of point nuni- s her one, the development of intelligent, ( aggressive, serviceable citizenship. He f formulated this plan for the benefit of " the Columbia Kiwanis Club, and although the local club has not adopted f the program in full, the International M committee, of which Professor Sum- 111 wait is a member, will use it as a model outlined in the administration of its pro- N' gram. r* The southern district of the United Sl States will be in the charge of Professor Sumwalt and other members of C the committee will assume control of the * program in the remaining sectors of the S country. Each year a different educa- P tional program is followed by the Ki- " wanis International, with a different aim. 1 The goal for the year 1935 is "Informed ? Leadership."

State Game, Ted Ilusing, sports an- , nouncer, in his radio talk picked Ohio State to win. An hour later a rhytinned telegram appeared from Colgate reading this way: .. "My Dear Ted Musing: As to Your ,! Choosing that Colgate will be Losing We Have One Hundred Dollars We ' are Not Using, and if You Surmise . Your Prediction is Wise, Pork Up Your Hundred and We'll Take Youse Guys. (Signed) The Beta House, Colgate Uni- , versity." Husing wired back this jingle: "As To Y'our Pleading That Colgate Will , Be Leading, I have A Hundred I'm Not Needing. I Fear That the Betas Will P Soon Lose Their Status as Prognosticatahs. Please Let Me Know, And I "H Will Forward the Dough. (Signed) Ted Husing." "Hundred Coming, Keep Wires Humming With Disastrous News Ohio's Sue- a cumbing," taunted Colgate. Husing, wir- ^ itig the money, advised: "I Tell You This to Bring You Pain, j, the Beta's Bet Will Be Husing's Gain. I'm Sorry My Football Erudition Will ( Cost You Most of Next Term's Tuition." j The game was played. Colgate lost 'j 10 to 7. A few minutes later Husing received this gay surrender: "Congratulations.
