AT OTHER COLLEGES. The last issue of "The Tiger" con tains a statement of the treasurer of Clemson's Athletic Association. Football netted them over $1,ioo last fall. * *: * .The faculty and students of Tu lane University have been having a merry time over the question of the abolition of the annual Soph-Fresh all-night "tank fight." The faculty wants to substitute push ball for the fight. The Senior class passed resolutions not to attendl the push ball game if played. It seems that -,nothing is rough enough but the fight. Vashington and Lee won eleven out of nineteen games of basketball in the season just closed. U. of N. C. def.eated Oak Ridge 4 to 1 in the first game on their schedule. * * * At Clemson, a man was recently reported for "sitting dowii while walking post." * * * Junior wveek at N.

Tlw sul;ject of the second speaker, J. ). Irandenburg, was "The Age Old Conflict." In part, he said, America wvas founded upon the principle of freedom and has there fore escaped much of the persecu tion, common to other nations be cause of religious and other strifes. W'Xe have been burdened, but there has been rapid progress. and in our changes many details of government have necessarily had to change also. New ramparts had to be erected against new enemies, such as cor porate wealth. Such complex prob lems demand the highest statesman ship. Today the reins of power are affected by industrial revolutioii, and the South will resume her place in a national manner. R. S. Owens (Euphradian), next sp)eaker, handled his subject, "Caro lina's Problem," w~ell. lie tracedl the several periods in the dlevelop ment of South Carolina, wvhich has reached the present high stage only through the indomitable spirit char acteristic of Carolinians. There is a new spirit of progress. Nature has yielded her resouirces liberally, and we hav'e a just cause of p)ridle in our manu facturing. One-fi fth our total white p)opulation, howsecver, are stumb)ling under the burden of illiteracy. Many are not to blame for such conditions, but are victims of circumstance. There is much work h)einr dlone towardt improve.. ment, and its solution lies in educa .ion. The future of our State de pends upon the degree of public opinion aroused toward Statewide education. "The Rules of the Game" was the subject of the next oration, which was well rendered by C. G. Wyche (Clariosophic). He emphasized the fact of a young man's entering a great game when he steps out into life. Each individual has a small part, but much depends upon his manner of playing. The rules by hilch every one should abide are included in the words truth, honor and justice. There are .today, how ever, violations of every one of these principles. Trusts and corrupt poli ticians, through combined effort, rob the people of the results of their honest efforts, and no justice can be obtained from the courts. We need men to play the game from the standpoint of truth, honlor and jus tice. "Practical Citizenship." needs lit tle comment. Thve fact that this wvas the medal winner over so many other good orations showvs that Mr. Williams hadi an unusually good speech an( delivered it in an excel lent manner. There is, he said, a need of practical citizenship. The citizen permits corruptness. and it is he who canl, by his service, bring about reforms. All of the recent re forms. such as in civil service, bal loting system. commission form of governieit, conservation move mIent, etc., were begun by private citizens. There are many fields for service from every individual. lIe can aid by the proper exercise of the privilege of suffrage, by his jury service, in the educational field, and ill your own conlIunity. The im portance of good citizenship cannot be overestimated. The last speaker, 11. Watson, spoke very ably on "The Modern Crusade." I is speech - was a plea for and an encouragem-ent of the crusade now being waged against disease. There has always been many antagonistic forces to human effort, but there has been much progress, an( man still holds the sovereign position. Life and wealth have not been saved in the mighty crusade against these forces of na ture. There are three methods of combating the principal diseases at th.e present time, by destroying the parasite, by innoculation, and by surgery. Great steps are being taken through these means of eman cip)ating the wvorld of the termror of dIisease. "Do they teach dlomestic science at your college ?" inquired the vis itor, of the Freshman.
