DAVIDSON WALKS
OVER GAECOCKS.
CRUSHING DEFEAT OF FIFTY
THREE TO NOTHING.
Carolina Plays Miserable Ball.
Booe and Kluttz Starred for
Davidson.
The game last Saturday with
Davidson, on the grounds of the Red
and Black, was a humiliating sur
prise to us. Of course, we know they
had a stronger team than -we, but
little did any of us expect such a
landslide as occurred. If any onc
had told us that Davidson could pilc
up a score of 53 to o against us, we
would have hooted him off the cam
pus. It is said 'that the unexpect'ed
always happens, and it certainly hap
pened in this instance.
That there is the friendliest rivalry
between the two institutions was
levidenced by the fact that Davidson
cheered our team upon arrival and
departure, when they came on th<
field to practice, and also some of th<
individual players, when they mad
good plays. The treatment receive(
was as kind and friendly as could b<
desired.
From the beginning -to the end
TTJhiT6ii ~Wor-eti~ 'her forward
passes, fakes and kicks in such rapid
succession that our team hardly had
time to draw breath betweenm plays
'rhe game was characterized by
clean playing on both sides.
The detailed account of the gam<
is too long for our limited space. sc
we only show a few figures. Caro.
lina made first downs four times
Davidson failed to make downs only
twice. Davidson worked forwar(
pass for gains amotmting to 157
yards. Booe gained 390 yards foi
Davidson and Kluttz gained 131
yards. In -the first quarter lDavidsor
made three touchdowns and kicket
three goals. Second quarter, they
made three touchdons, kicked twc
goals and made one safety. Thir]
quarter they made two -touchdowns
but failed for goals. Fourth quar
ter they made one touchdown an<
kicked goal. Total, nine touch
downs, six goals and one safety.

DRAMATIC CLUB ADOPTS
PERMANENT NAME
CLUB NOW CONSISTS OF FIF
TEEN MEN.
Tryout Will Be Given to All Desir
ing to Join.
At a meeting of the Dranatii
Club, licld on Mniday evening, th<
permanent name of the Garricl
Club was adopted. The selection o
this name vas a wise one, as ,
good name always adds to any or
ganization. David Garrick, fo
whom the clib was named, was on
of the greatest, if not t'he greatest
English actors that ever liv.ed.
It was decided to have a "tryout
in the near future. All men desir
ing -to join the club will be given ;
chance to display their talents. Th,
competitive system is thus em
ployed, and those showing up wel
will be selected for membership.
All persons vishing a tryout wil
please apply to the "membershil
committee," consisting of Messr
McGowan, V. C., Hazard and Gucr
ard. A committee was appointed t
select a play to be given early in th
spring. In most of- the universitie
it is customary for the club to pre
sent a play wvritten by one of th
studen,ts, which adds local color an
interest. If any student has an
play which he has written, or cai
write one, it would be well to turi
it in to he read and passed upon b:
the club; for, possibly, it can be use<
to the advantage of the club an
honor to the -writer.
This organization is permanent
it is here to stay ; so every studen
should take an interest in it. If yoi
have any talent whatsoever, giv
your name to the membership com
mittee.
See Ben-Hur.
Next Monday, Tuesday an
Vednesday matinee and iiight, lien
Hfur, one of the greatest plays o'
the stage, will be presented to Cc
lumbia. "The Gamecock" calls th
students' attention to this play, as w
think that every man in the Univer
sity should see it. The company ha
over 200 )e'o)le in the cast and th
scenic prodtuction is great. le suir
and see it.
Team Off for North Crolina.
The Varsity leaves today for Duri
ham, N. C., to meet the Universit;
of Nor-th Carolina. They have beel
practicing hard for the last wveel
andl though still crippled, they wvil
give N. C. a tough fight. The bes
wishes of the studlent body go wvit'
them.

the life of the two colleges, and it

Nothing can surpass the los)i

forfeit a few "wheels" to have a good
time, and greatest of all, to support
your team? \With a big bunch on
the side line to cieer the Varsity on,
they will be able to put more life
and spirit in the game.
EtTort is being ma(le to get a car

(uently lower rates. Further an
inouncements . concerning this plan
will be made in the stu(lent body
iecting on Monday, and in "The
Gamecock," which conies out
\Vednesday morning.
Nlake up your min(l to go. Even
if we don't. get reduced rates, for
lack of sufficient men, the block
ticket rate is oily two cents a mile,
_ and that is considerably lower. The
team ieeds your support. WNill you
go?
As Wives See It.
. "Every time the baby looks into
i my face lie smiles," said Mr.
. Meekim.
'ANell," answere(d his wife, "it
2 may not be exactly polite, but it
shows lie has a sense of humor."
ATTENTION!
A committee has been appointed
to canvass every dormitory to raise
money to give the scrubs a trip to
Charleston on Thanksgiving day
to play Porter's Academy. The
'Charleston team is unable to guar
antee expenses, so it is up to the
student body to help raise the
tmoney. If you have not already
contributed, do so immediately, as
the scrubs deserve this trip, and the
money must be raised. At least $x5o
must be forthcoming. Come for
ward and give your sare.
DR. WtAUCHOPE DELIVERS
INTERESTING LECTURE.
"SHAKESPEARE: SOME NEW
FACTS AND THEORIES
ABOUT HIM."
Received With Much Enthusiasm
by Lovers of Culture.
Dr. G. A. \Wauchope lectuie(l last
iiight in the chapel -to an over
crow(le(l au(licnce. Tiis was the
seco(l of t'he exteension series, and
was heard with as much enthusiasm
as the first.
Ihe subject of Dr. Wauchope's
lecture vas, "Shakespeare, ai( Some
New Facts and Theories About
Hjim." I-e tlldertook a v,ery (liffi
cult viewpoint, tha-t is, in substan
tiating new facts an(l theories. I low
ever, lie a(lmirably acconiplislhe(l his
(lesire in a most attractive treatment.
The lecture was (leci(ledfly interest
ing from start to finish, and inval
tiable to those intereste(l in the plays
of Shakespeare.
Flinn Hall Reading Room.
The mea(ling room at Flinn Ilall
is serving a(lnirably the purpose for
which it is inten(le(l-to supply
those who find leisure moments for
recreation with curreut literature of
the (lay in the form of the best
monthly and weekly niagazines of
the country, an( the newspapers of
our State.
The students vho avail thcm
selves of the privileges of Fliin Hall
have respecte(l all proprieies in the
use of the furniture and reading mat
ter -to a pleasing extent, except in one
regar(l ;'an(l that is that some person,
or personms, has on more than one
occasion cut the covers from some
of the magazines, for the purpose,
it is prestme(, of securing pictures
to (lecorate their rooms. In a(l(lition
to this. it sometimes happens that
an anec(lote, or poei, or something
of the kind is cut from tihe bo(ly of
the magazine.
These acts have probably been
(oie without thought on 'the part of
the persons. Tihe magazines at
Flinin I all are the common property
of all tihe students in the University,
an( others are (leprive(l of the pleas
tire afforded by them if they are
thus selfishly used. It is the pur
pose of those in charge of Flini
Hall to bind some of the magazines.
if a p)art of the contents of these
magazines are cut out, they are -then
unfit for binding.
So, fellowvs, please bear in mind
that t1he p)eriodlicals in the reading
room are there to be readl by all, but
to b)e mutilated by none.
