UNIVERSITY PRESS ASSOCIA TION IS PLANNED. Correspondents for County News papers Will Discuss Organization. Furnish Newspapers With Cam pus News. The organization of a press club, through which the newspapers of the State will be furnished with a weekly news letter covering the happenings at the University, and through which the members will ob tain some experience in newspaper work, is the object of a meeting to be held in the green room at Flinn Hall, Friday afternoon, at 2:45 o'clock. Heretofore, several have been meeting Dr. E. L. Green every Fri - day at this hour and the happenings of news interest discussed, with a view to enabling the young men to write an interesting news loetter for their home papers. But it is believed that this work can be carried on more . efficiently through a press club, j' working along the same lines. At 3 the meeting Friday afternoon it is <3 proposed to adopt rules and 'elect cv officers. The only requisite of membership will be that each member write each week a news letter for his county , paper. Meetings will be held once 4 each week, at which the news of the week and other matters of interest will be discussed. It is planned to have several prominent n'ewspaper men to address the club later in the year. Sophs Held Wild Freshies. (Continued from Page One.) sophs, and the receiver vas downed almost in his tracks. The sopho mores made first down, but on the second dlown, the ball vas forfeited to the freshmen. Until the whistle blew at the end of the second half, the ball meandered from one side of the field to the other, and was often changed to the other side on fail ures to make the distance. Neither goal, up to this point, had been in danger. The freshmen kicked off again to the sophomores. Owens received the ball, and succeeded in running it back about five yards. After sev eral downs, the freshmen managed to get the ball up to the sophomores' 15-yard line. In the last five minutes of the game the freshmen's hopes rose high, when Moore fell upon01 a kicked ball back of his own line. For awhile it was thought that it was a safety for the freshmen. The ref eree, however, after careful consid-er ation, pronounced it to b)e a touch back, and hence no score. The line-ill) wvas as follows: FnR.E8H MEN. SoPHzOMiOREs. Dudley.........................

A few days ago the writer was wandering through the grounds of the Uiiversity of South Carolina, and was struck by so many evi dences of vigor and progress under the present administration. New buildings for laboratory and recita tion work and reconstructed build ings for physical and social improve ment-these are no small achieve ments for Dr. Mitchell's short term of service. Moreover, attention also might be called to tile enlarged pedagogical work, additional post-graduate courses, and the consequent growth in the number of students. You may also have observed that members of th-e faculty do not confine their activities to the class room, but are working out from the University as a center, and touching the people in many places and in many ways. Painful by contrast, however, was the impression that the University sadly lacked means for doing still further service through its lecture courses, discussions and various pur lic gatherings. In a word, a small, unattractive, antiquated chapel-and unchanged, as the writer was told, for 105 years-still remains as the only assembly hall for this up-to (late institution in one of the most rapidly growing cities in South Car olina. If a reasonably commodious structure of impressive architecture, with latter lay methods of lighting and heating, good acoustics and comfortable furnishings, could be erected, it would afford scope for promoting a sense of solidarity in the student body by the inspiration imparted to their various assembli.es, would give adequat.e accommoda tion for visitors to commencement and founder's clay exercises, and would enable the University to offer to the people of Columbia more tempting inducements to attiend lec tures and other entertainments of a cultural character. Inasmuch as such a hall could be so located as to render so valiu able a service to Columbia itself. why should not the good people of that city start a movement by a subscrip tion of something like $5,ooo and make a proposition to the legislature to supplement this sufficiently to en able the University to take this next step in doing its best work for the people? It is certainly not asking too muc'h of a city that has for a century reaped large benefits from hlaving tile University in her midst, anld uin dloubtedlly its citizenls are only wait ing for some opp)ortunity like thlis to sho0w their appreciation of it. The University neecis it, t,he city needs it anld tile State nleedis it. -Citizen. Spartanburg, S. C. *Lecture by Prof. E. L. Green. (Continued from Page One.) sentedi with bouquets.
