VOL. VI. UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH CAROLINA, COLUMBIA, S. C., OCTOBER 26, 1912. No. 4. FLORIDA GETS BIG END SCORE OVER CAROLINA Third Game of Season Goes to Florida. Bad Judgment of Officials Causes the Game to Go Wrong Way-Florida Outclassed by Carolina. Although Florida got the big end of the score in last Saturday's game, it was far from being the Gaines ville lads' game. From the first the Carolina squad outclassed the Flor ida bunch in every way. Carolina was off from the scratch, advancing the ball at each down and smashing Florida's plays as if they had been high school formations. The ball was Carolina's for the greater part of the game and but for poor judgment of the officials the Gamecocks would have regis tered another victory. Early in the game VonKolnitz got his toe into the pigskin for three counts. Later Florida tried a field goal but failed, the ball going behind the goal post. Florida recovered behind the line, claiming that VonKolnitz had touched the ball, and was given a touchdown. The Carolina eleven did stellar work, each man playing his position well at all times of the game. Von Kolnitz, Heyward, Passaillaigue, Wel..an, Hill and Porter were the shining lights of the game. Dr. and Mrs. Lake, Missionaries, Visit Carolina. Dr. and Mrs. Lake, formerly of South Carolina, now of Canton, China, were visitors at the chapel on \Vednesday evening. Dr. and Mrs. Lake are missionaries to China and are here on a visit. Dr. Lake con ducted the devotional exercises and made a few remarks afterward in which he expressed the earnest de sire that there would be men in Car olina who would follow in the foot steps of those who had gone before in the endeavor to enlighten China. Mrs. Lake was born on the can pus in the house now used by Pro fessor George A. \Vauchope. Dr. Lake was a native of Edgefield. Y. M.C. A. Mr. J. A. McMurry, a Davidson man of '09, a(ddressedl the meeting of the Y. M. C. A. last Wednesday niight. HeI used for his subject the "Following of Christ.'' He showed that to be a successful follower and worker one must enter into the wvork with a whole heart. CAROLINA MEETS CHARLESTON TODAY Game in City by the Sea Last Before Clemson Event. Gamecock Eleven Ready for a Great Fight, Although Handicapped by Loss of Three Varsity Men. This afiernoon Carolina mixes things on the gridiron with Charles ton College, one of the fastest and pluckiest teams in the State. This promises to be a fast, interesting game. With VonKolnitz, Wehman and Dunn out of the game on account of the S. I. A. A. regulations the team will be somewhat handicapped. but the coach is working on the line that will meet Charleston today and Clemson next week. Christie 3enet, one of Carolina's greatest supporters, and Ralph Fos ter of the well known duo, Foster and McKay, were on the field last week. Guy Gunter, an old Carolina star, was also out to see the workout. Dan Heyward, who was hurt in Monday's practice, was out on the held Wednesday and will doubtless be back in the game in a few days. Popular Lecture Course. The popular lecture extension course will soon be under way again. Elaborate preparations are being made on the l)art of the faculty to make this session's series go even ahead of those given during the past few years. The subjects treated in this course will be on timely subjects that touch closely one's everyday life. 'l'he field from which they will be select ed is a broad one, covering almost every phase of study at the Univer sity. When possible they will be il lustrated with stereoptican slides. Past experience has proven what an enormous benefit is to be gained by hearing men of massive intellect and broad experience. Carolina of fers such an op)ortunity not only to her students directly within her walls, but also to her students who live without-to all the people of Columbia and South Carolinians in general. \Vith the co-operation of the people of Columbia--and cer tainly they have marched hand in haind with the University up to the p)resent-t-thle student bodly and fac ulty intend to make this session a recordl-breaker. J. R. H-umplhries, '09, is teaching at Perry,v. RC. CAROLINA TEAM IS ROUNDING INTO SHAPE For Clemson Game-Will Lose Some Good Men. But Will Put Up a Great Fight to Win From Clemson. With not quite a week to wait the Carolina team is getting in read iness for the Clemson game. Caro lina plays the College of Charleston in "The City by the Sea" today and this game will put a fighting edge on the Gamecock crew that will make them try with a vim to "Twist that tiger by the tail." The College of Charleston, although it has only a small student body, always puts out a good team and it should make things interesting for the Carolina bunch. Wehman, VonKolnitz and Dunn have been ruled out of the Clemson game and of course this weakens the Carolina team, but we are going to win from Clemson nevertheless. Dan Heyward, who was hurt in Monday's scrimmage, is rapidly re covering and will without a doubt put up a great fight in the Clemson game. Noble Dick was hurt in the Florida game on last Saturday, but will be there with the goods on next Thuu.day. We will lose three of our best men in the Clemson game, but just look what we have left Stoney, Avinger, Passalaigue, \Vil liams, Brown, Langston, Heyward, (;irardeau, Porter, Kollock, Sligh, Perkins, Wilds, Owens, -larth, Bris tow, Dick, Boulware, LaBorde, Shuler, Wikls, Hampton and Mc 'I'er. The team that goes against Clemson will come from this bunch alnl probably the largest part of these men will play before the game is over. Everybody has seen the "pep'' and "ginger" that our men are showing this year and know that the game will be far different from last year's game. Let every man come out and see the great game that Carolina is going to put up next Thursday morning at the Fair Ground. First Issue of Carolinian is Out.

The Athletic Association Realizes a Very Neat Sum Out of the Gate Receipts. Monday afternoon in Manson hall the Virginia-Carolina game was received over the wire just as the plays were gotten off on the Univer sity of Virginia's gridiron. A large blackboard, laid off as the field, was used to follow the ball about, and the line-up of each team, at either end of the board, told the audience just who was playing at all stages of the game. Messrs. Schiffley and Latimer had charge of the matinee and arranged it so that the only difference in see ing the real game was the absence of the players. Much enthusiasm was displayed throughout the game. After paying expenses the mana gers turned the balance of the gate receipts over to the Athletic Asso ciation.
