VOL. IV. UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH CAROLINA, COLUMBIA, S. C., OCTOBER 28, 1910. No. 5.
FAIR WEK IS HERE.
Week of Pleasure for the University
Students.
There Will Be Two Football Games
in the City, Carolina vs. Clemson
and Davidson vs. Charleston Col
lege.
Signs of Fair Veek are in the air.
The general appearance of the city
is picking up in anticipation of the
arrival of thousan(s-yes, thousands
of visitors wlho will throng our fair
city during the next week.
E-vcrbo(dy is getti,ng rea(y for that
great occasion. Tlhe college men
especially are preparing themselves
for a week of )leasure. Some are
studying far ahead in order to l)e
able to "take a veek off," while all
are closely hudling their small sum
of nickels and (limes.
Great events will happen next
week. There will be much doing.
Confetti, rubber )ails, ticklers, bal
loons, shows, races, pretty girls and
football. Ve emphasize the two last
because they are most importat
they go together. Thousands of
pretty girls will be here, and to a(ld
to the exquisite pleasure of flirting
with them, will be the great Caro
lina-Clemson, Davidson-Charleston
College games.
It is about the Carolina-Clemson
gaine we are most concerne(l. \Ve
wvant to urge every Carolina man to
be in the gran(lstand for the game.
The ceuter of the stan( will be espe
cially reserved .for the Carolina
cheerir .; bunch and there is no rea
son wh l1 390 men, along vith alumni
an( foA iids, should not be "on the
job," oea(ly to make "some noise."
The cheer leaders will be there to
lead the "rooting," so some noise
must be made. Reniember, that en
ergetic, spirite(d cheering will help
to carry more "pigskins" across the
goal than you can imagine.
"Gamecocks," we only desire to
call your attention to this fact; von
wvill need no urging. Talk it arounl
and let every true Carolinian be on
hand to cheer his team on to victory.
I)ui-ng an exciting game of ball
a player had tw\'o fingers bunged np,
and on the way home lie stoppe(l to
see a doctor.
"Doctor," lie asloed anxiously,
"w.hen this paw of mine heals will
I be able to play a piano ?"
"Certainly you will," the dloctor
answeredl him.
"Gee, you're a wonder, Doc. I
never could before."-T. M. R.

"Youi'd better join the studlent body."

LENOIR ELEVEN GO
Crawlord's Extraordinary Ru
Ga
Gamecocks Defeat Them I
of 32
1,enoir was not in the game with
the Gamecocks on last Saturday,
when the latter defeated them lby the
overwhelming score of 33 to o. A fter
the first few downs it was clearly
seen that it would be a wvhirlwind
victory for the Carolinians. The vis
itor's line and ends would not
restrain the terrific rushes of Caroli
na's backfield, which went through
for long gains.
The ball opened u) when l,ohr,
Lenoir's fullback, recovered a bad
pass across his goal line and was
caught by Mobley, giving Carolina
two points on a safety. Crawford
next kicked a field goal from 25 yard
line, scoring three more points. This
ended the first quarter.
The second quarter was a walk
over for Carolina. Crawford opened
up with ain end run for 30 yards and
a touchdown. In the next play Mc
Nair goes io yards and Crawford
1 Iove for another touchldowl.
Stoney gains 35 yards on quarter
back run, but ball is brought back
and Carolina penalized 15 yards for
holding. Stoney makes 20 yards.
followed by McNair, who gains 15.
In next down McNair carries ball
across for touchdown and then
reaches goal. McGowan receives
forward pass for gains of 35 yards,
but ball is brought back because
Stoney passed ball whenl he was less
than 5 yards behind line. Quarter
enlds with score 22 to 0 in Calolina's
favor.
The North Carolinians spruced
upl) considerably in the third quarter
and held the Gamecocks for downs.
Their only chance of scoring was
broken up by Alexander, who caught
Green. Ikenoir's left guard, who had
gotten away wi'th a blocked ptnt
and had a clear field.
Inl the fourth quarter Mlobley
broke il) Lenoir's puint, recovered
the ball and waltzed over for a
touchdown. Crawford again pulled
ofT a spectacular run for a touch
dowi and kicked goal. Game ended
with score of 33 to in Carolina's
fav~or.
Crawford starred for Carolina
with his spectacular end runs. Mob
Iey and Mc Nair also p)layed great
ball.
The visitors were simply out
ekassed-they were not in the gamre
at any time. However, they played
p)retty ball and showed themselves
to beC gentlemen, there b)eing little or
nn n)ennlizino.

An Athletic Suggestion.
In glancing through the columns of
our welcolie visitor, The Red and
la(i, of University of Georgia. we
Ioticed. besides iiiany-other well writ
tenl articles, the mientioln of I'ag" day,
which was held for the benefit 4)f their
athletic associationl. Th'ley raised eighty
dl(lars in onie day for tle athletic as
sociation, lotwitlstanldilng the fact
that jupiter iltivius reigined suprelme
an(d the rain desctded. .\theis, Ga.
is not a very large city. alnd considering
the rain, the (;orgianls were very Su
cessfful.
It has occurred to I.: G.u.:mcock
that our .\thletic .\ssociation might
try, witl success, the same scheme.
Columbia is a good-sized city, and has
within its bounlds mlany public-spirited.
genlerous Citizens, who would willingly
give to any enterprise that would aid
the University. "Tag (lay" means
)ilmling a tag ol every one in exchange
for anly amlonlit of m11oley. It was
worked successfully il C'oltuml)ia sev
eral years ago when the ladies raised
several hlund(redl dollar*s for somec civic
enterprise. It simply mmeans arming
p)retty, charming miaidenis with tags.
anid who couild refuse to 'ontriute?
WVe offer this suggestion. I f it was
successfully carried out in a smiall city
like Athens, on a rainy dlay, thlere is
absolutely no reason why it should 110t
be successful here. \Ve believe that
the Athletic Association can make
something out of this scheme. Think
hlitt it.
CAROLINA VS. CLEMSON.
The Prospects Good for Winning the
Game.
Comparing With Last Year, We
Ought to Be Victors - "Root
ing" Has Something to Do
With It.
Th-e most interestilg thing- to the
stulents of the I.ni1versity vIhich
vill hap)el luring Irair \\'eek is the
game of football betweenl Carolina
and Cleimson. All of its remember
the gaimle last year plaved h'etVeenl
these two institutions. L'lp to Fair
\\'evk Carolina had a repitation as
having one of the wveakest teams in
the State, because we had beenl
beateln. This year we have a good
repuitationl, not having lost a single
game. alld not having our goal
ieared. \Ve have the best Coaclh in
the South. and with a little hard
wvork we expect to defeat our rival.
Clemson has a very strong team this
year, liavitg hield the fast Auburnii
bulich to tiree t( cdoli wils last
wveek.
Last year tle dope that was
halded out was, that Clemson woul
beat us 40 to 0. T'lis year soie say
ve wVill win, others sav Clemson vill
win. Now, if we vary the score
according to the talk tlhis year as
much as ve did last year, we ought
to comlie 1f tle field victors.
Inl all our gaies heretofore we
have had two of our best imen out of
the game, our t v ends. \\ith these
tw.o )oys back inl the game we ought
to) play a m1uch het ter game than we
have done in the other tilree games.
l"el lows, the "rolotinig" has a Ilot
to do vith tle results of this gamle.
alid we wvant or chiief "rooter" to
prepare to give those Clemisom fel
1()\ws on tle side line jtist as muchl
as the team gives them on the foot
ball field. \'ietorv !
New Dormitory.
The I egislature will ieet before
so very ong now\,. and we want to
get from them this year a liev d(ir
llilory. This is wvlhat we want ap
propriatiois to Cover.
A finely eqltipped building, wvitlh
vater andil modern light fixtires in
it, holdig 50 or 60o mine, wonld
make a big jump in the iuinber of
Our sitldelits for tle session after
nlext.
Carolina is a chicken ready to
burst the shell. WVe are growving in
numbers. We must hav'e room. A
new dlormitory is the only soltition.
WVith a inew (dormitory andC what
other troom can b)e miade av'ailable,
we could have 500 meni at Carolina,
if we hiave 395 with otur present
erampiled (quarter's.
Thle cry is for a new dormiitory to
house 6o students. Let's get it from
this I 4erislanire
