Three New Editors.
In a recent joint meeting of
two the literary societes it was
moved and passed that the staff
of The Gamecock be increased
by the addition of three new edi
tors. It was explained to the
societies that the editor-in-chief
of the weekly has entirely too
much work to do, making it
hardly possible for him to carry
on his college work in a credi
table manner.
As a result of this appeal the
societies created three new edi
tors, namely, managing editor,
co-ed editor, and athletic editor.
Miss Sarah Fromberg ha.;
been elected co-ed editor by the
Co-ed Association. The student
body elected S. L. Latimer athe
letic editor. The managing edi
tor is to be appointed by the edi
tor-in-chief from the staff.
Those editors will take charge of
the next issue of "The Bird."
The Army-Navy game will be
played in Philadelphia on Novemi
ber 28th.
GARNET AND BLACK
STAFF BEGINS WORK
Editors Will Make 1915 An
nual Best Yet.
Senior's Section Will be Main
Feature-Business Manage
ment is Handicapped.
The staff of the Garnet and
Black for 1915 has already got
ten down to work in earnest and
have practically completed all
plans for the annual of this year.
They are non-committal as to
the details of the book but con
fidentialy declare it to be a
wonder. The feature this year
is to be the Senior section. Not'
only will the regular picture and
record of each senior appear but
the staff plans to have a photo
graph of all last year men taken
in some informal pose. In ad
dition to this a thumb-nail bio
graphy and a novel prophecy
will appear in the section.
The business management is
working this year under a heavy
handicap. The advertising ob
tained from the merchants down
town have hitherto been the
chief support of the annual.
This year by reason of the finan
cial depression this will be much
cut down. The stvfA will havei
to rely thereon the students for
more than ordinary loyalty in
support of the annual. Every
nian on the campus is urged to
subscribe for as many copies as
lie can afford and to subscribe
now. The business managers
are J. McB. Dabbs and "Ram"
Purdy.
Hold Your Cash.
It seems that some sawed-off,
hammered-in piece of humanity
is forming a habit of meeting the
University students at the door
leading to the "roost" of the
Columbia Theatre and relieving
them of financial burdens. Only
a short while ago our good na
tured "fresh," Dominick, lost a
cons!derable sum of money while
center-rushing for the front seat.
Still more recently a good mem
ber of the law school and others
lost quite a sum while struggling
under the pressure of the 'mass
of humanity that is quite char
acteristic of the side door. The
student should never carry a
bunch of money on his person
when going to the theatre. It is'
nseless as well na risky.
CAROLINA LOSES
FOOTBALL CLASSIC

Clemson Eleven.
Gamecocks Work in Face of
