THE ALMA MATER SONG.
Several weeks ago THE GAMECOCK
published an offer, made by the fac
ulty for the best original Alma Mater
song, submitted by any student or
friend of the University. The re
ward offered is fifty dollars, and will
he given only upon the selection of a
song that is entirely satisfactory.
It seems remarkable that so old an
institution as Carolina should be with
out a song of this kind. Many younger
colleges-even the very recent and
breezy Western ones, who have noth
ing of a historical background, such
as we have had for so long, have yet
been energetic enough to acquire soigs
which are every year ingraining them
selves into the college life. Few in
stitutions in the country have greater
local color or a more interesting his
tory than Carolina, and none can r*e
flect a better spirit or one that has
tended m1ore towards loftier ideals
and the proper molding of public
thought.
At one time this institution led
the thought of the State, notably
at the time of the Nullification Ordi
nance in 1832, when Dr. Thomas
Cooper, the then president, was the
chief expounder of this doctrine, and
exerted a wide influence by virtue of
his position. The college continued to
yield a dominant influence in state
affairs until the wvar, and always re
flected the feeling of its citizens. Since
the close of that great struggle the
college has had an uphill road, but it
is again coming into its own and will
soon assume its 01(1 imp)ortance.
All of these things should find a
place, or, rather, expression in a song
which, in a few wvords, will properly
set forth the things for which Caro
lina has always stood. It is earnestly
desired that this song should be wvrit
ten as soon as possible, as the need is
one that grows more pressing every
(lay.
A ROOM FOR THlE PUBLICATIONS.
The question of providing a room
for the staffs of the th,.ee puliation
in *college, is one that has often pre
sented itself to members of the vari
ous staffs.. The need for such a
room is apparent, and the. stimualus it
would give to work of this kind would
be very great. The idea was agitated
to some extent last year but at the
time no suitable place could be found.
It seems now that a room wijl be avail
able, which will answer the purpose in
every respect. The plans for the re
iodeli:ng of Dr. Gordon B. Moore's
residence on Sumter street, to be used
for the Y. M. C. A. and as a social
center, provide that, if desired, a
room shall be reserved for the use of
the staffs of The Carolinian, GAML:
cociK and Garnet and Black. The
furnishing, however, will have to be
done by the several staffs, in whatever
manner possible. The remainder of
the builing is to be fitted up from the
fund of $850 collected by the late Dr.
J. Villiam Flinn, but this will not be
available for the furnishing of the
publications' room.
This is an opportunity vhich should
by all means be taken up, for no more
suitable place could be found. The
furnishing would not be a very for
midable matter. Possibly only a be
ginning could be made this year, but
all succeeding staffs could add to the
work, an.d :in time complete it. It
woild seei a better plan to have a
few pieces of furniture in good taste
and of a substantial quality, to begin
with. such as a large table, some
chairs, and eventually a desk for each
of -the three ptblca,ions. A type
writer could be installed and save the
renting of two or more, as is done at
present. This subject should be
taken up in the near future, and some
plan devised for raising money which,
after all, is the first and last essential
towards making the room a reality.
Game Lost to A. & M.
(Continued front Page One.)
sutffered a severe relapse. The A. and
Ml. btnch was completely outclassed
at the bat, Carolina hitting safely
eight times for a total of thirteen
bases. wlhile the Tarheels totaled nine
bags for six clean swats. In the field,
hiowever, the story is reversed, and the
tale is a sad one. iere, Carolina lost
the game. She made nine large errors,
and every one came when a slip-tip
meant rtuns. The A. & M. infield
worked together like a machine, and
the .head work of Black at third
directly prevented one run at least.
The feature of the game, however,
wvas \Videman's great wvork at third
for Carolina, bo0th inl the field and at
the bat. Jrones pitched splendid ball,
fielded his position beautifully, and
brought in the first run with a warm
smash through the pitcher's bo0x. The
sad story follows in detail:
