CAROLINA ALUMNAE VOTED RECENTLY One of Our Old Students Comes to Her Own in Far Off California. Mrs. R. B. Perkins, who was Miss Beulah Gertrude Calvo, an A. B. graduate of 1901, who now resides in California, recently voted under the laws governing woman suffrage in that State. This is of peculiar in terest to students and alumni of Car olina owing to the fact that Mrs. Perkins is the first female graduate of this institution to be admitted to the polls. Mrs. Perkins was an exceedingly brilliant student while at Carolina, and is pleasantly remembered by her associates here in Columbia and the professors who were on the fac ulty when she was in college. PROFESSOR CARSON TALKS ON AVIATION Interesting Subject Treated in a Scientific Manner. Thursday evening in the chapel Professor Carson delivered his lec ture on Aviation. A large audience of students and out-in-town people heard this most interesting address of the season. Professor Carson reviewed the progress of aviation from the time it was conceived of in the minds of the ancients up to this, the twentieth century, when we have become 30 accustomed to flights in air that we are no longer surprised to hear that some aviator has broken another record in speed, endurance or alti tude. Numerous lantern slides were shown of the various types of di rigibles and areoplanes. These Pro fessor Carson discussed in a most interesting manner, telling of the many experiments man has carried on in his endeavor to master the air. As a fitting close to so interesting an address several areoplane models constructed by Mr. Terry Mitchell were shown. Mr. Mitchell, though quite young, has shown great ability along scientific lines. He has so far constructed several models of late typ)e areop)lanes. Two short flights across the stage of the chapel were made by one of Mr. Mitchell's ma chines. This is the last of the p)oputlar lee tures to be given this year. These lectures have adlded much to the life of the college and have been enjoyed by many of the p)eople of the city ais wvell as the students. During the last few (lays tw~o of our number have b)een sadd(enedl by the loss of loved ones in their fam ilies, one of his mother, the other -.f a brother. The whole student body symnpathizes deeply with these our fellow students in this time of sore h)ereavement CAROLINA PLAYS THE UNIVERSITY OF TENN. Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. Will Have Plenty of Baseball Next Week. Carolina will go up against the University of Tennessee in three games next week. Monday, Tues (lay and Wednesday will see three of the best games of the season. The University of Tennesse always puts out a good team and it is reported to be better than usual this year. If reports are true, every man on the team is a good hitter. Since Caro lina has recovered from the slump experienced on the Northern trip she has shown great form and will doubtless put up a good exhibition. Turn out in full force and help Car olina win.
