WOODROW WILSON LEAGUE GROWING Various Colleges Are Working with Earnestness-Meeting Held in Chapel Here. The Voodrow Wilson- League continues to grow and get more en thusiastic at this institution. Corre spondence is still going on with the various colleges of the United States, and letters are constantly coming asking for instructions in regard to what is expected of their institution. A letter from the Uni versity of Montana was received re cently, saying that a similar league, as a result of the request made by the mother of this movement, was formed there. 8 A meeting of the club was held in chapel last Vednesday evening at 7:30. Many important topics were 3 discussed. The geographical divis T ion of the work seems to be the great problem at present. To facil itate matters, the University of Vir ginia will be headquarters for col leges north of the Mason and Dixon line and the University of South Carolina headquarteis south of this line. Colleges of this State have not responded as promptly as was ex pected. They will be urged to take up the matter at once. Robert E. Gonzales was the speaker of the evening and made a very forcible address. Hde was after ward made an honorary member of the club. Campaign literature in form of speeches of Gov. Wilson, lithograph pictures, buttons, etc., are being dis tributed on the campus. More en thusiasn is added each day and the movement here is even a greater suc cess than was expected at first. JAMES G. DRIVER ATTACKED BY CADETS (Continued from Page One.) Citadel supporter rushed on the field and with the remark, "You have been giving us a dirty deal through the whole afternoon," put one arm around the fiel judge's neck and hit him wvith his other fist. They clinched. Then the Citadel cadets, about 25 of them, started on Mr. Driver so that lie wvas able to defend himself but little. By this time Coach Neff and Carolina men camne to his assistance and the general fisticuff resulted. The Charleston police brought quiet in a short while and play was resumed. Previous to this the Citadel had requested the removal of Mr. Driver as an official, but Coach Neff refused to have him taken out. Mr. Driver when asked before the game to offi ciate did not want to do so, but the Citadel insisted. His decisions, as reported by football men who know, were absolutely correct, and the Cit adel cadets need to get up on the 19 11 rules. It must be said that the Charleston police department acted in a most gentlemanly manner, stopping the difficulty in as quiet a way as possi ble and showing the men of Caro lina every courtesy. Refused to Attend Dance. Soon after the game, the Carolina men met, before removing their foot ball togs, and agreed not to attend the annual Thanksgiving hop ten dered by the Citadel. The Univer sity was represented at the game by five sponsors, and they, too, did not attend the dance. It i,s said that the Citadel cadets thought it "funny" that the Univer sity men would not attend the hop, saying that they had no hard feel ing against the University of South Carolina, but against the field judge, Mr. Driver. The 'varsity returned to Colum bia yesterday . morning at 6:45 o'clock. The men were indignant at the treatment received at the hands of the Citadel. Usually this game is a big social affair and the best of feeling is always shown. The action yesterday, however., shows it to be different. It is hardly probable that Carolina will soon again accept the "hospitality" of the Citadel. MOOT COURT 4F The Moot Court usually held on Wednesday night under the auspices of the Law Association, was not held this week on account of Thanks giving. The regular meeting will be held next Wednesday night in the law room in Legare college. The Law Association this year is larger than usual and much interest is being dis played in the Moot Court and other law work. Sweater Money Donated to Athletic Association. At a meeting of the student body after chapel Monday morning the money collected during fair week to p)urchase sweaters for the 'varsity was turned over to the athletic asso ciation. The amount was $31-50. It was the object when the money wvas raised to equip the football eleven wvith the swveaters that they might make a better showv before the fair week crowvd. The amount col lected wvas not enough to procure the sweaters and as the season was so near the end it was dlecidled to aban don the idea anid give the money to the athletic association.

Just after the usual devotional exercises Mr. T. S. Mc Millan read President Ta ft's Thanksgiving proclamation. The address of the morning was made by Rev. Dr. Thornton Whaling, presi dent of Columbia Seminary, who If You Only Knew A t .n t Copyright Rocum at The Marshall 1318 M4 0 spoke on the qualifications for great ness. He said in part: "Two things are essential to true greatness-hu mility and the spirit of service which grows out of true humility. Hu iility is essential because, first of all, only the humble man can guard against his own weaknesses, and, second, because it is only this sort of a man wlho is teachable. The proud, conceited nian is the only sort of fellow it is inpossible to teach and to help. Willingness to serve is a further test of greatness, because it is only the man who best helps all who is most truly entitled to the love and esteem of all. Greatness should be estimated in terms of service ren dered, and not of applause gained; in terms of kindness and helpfulness and not in terms of dollars and cents."
