Dr. Winfield Scott Hall deliv ered three lectures before the students of the University on his tour of the leading colleges and universities throughout the Uni ted States as arranged by the International Comnitt-e of the Young Men's Christian Associa tion. The speaker brought a message which was interesting as well as instructive. "The Psycho1ogy of Youth," the subject of his first address was listened to enthusiastically by a fair sized b.dy of men at me o'clock last Sunday in Flinti Hall. "The life of every boy said the speaker, "goes thru the successive steps of primevalism. avagry, barbarism, chivalry. and nocernism, the pr<.cess of evolution of our forefatl-ers. It is while going thru the last st .ges that the collegra man ac + q .:rs those certain fundaienta principles of developed manhood which mark him as a leader among his fellows." At chapel Monday morning the noted psychologist spoke rrieflI. on ''immortality.'' In examin ing and studying the amoeba we see that it grows and takes everything for itself, only to divide and give to the world two o.ganisins. This fact caus ed the great German scientist, Wei-mann, to discover that the germ plasm is immortal. In the anirnai life, then immortality was first gained thru sacrifice." A iarge audience heard the most practical and helpful lec ture of the series, whi'sh was given Monday night in chapel. Dr. Hall spoke on "Repi oduction and Sexual Hygiene" and pre sented a few pliaiu facts of life which every young man should know. Ali of his addresses were scientifiai y and interestingly de;i ve'cl.

OLD RIVALS MEET IN ANNUAL CONTEST Davidson and Carolina Battle for Gridiron Honors. Teams Evenly Matched-Sever al South Carolinians in Visi tors Lineup. Ancient rivals meet today when Carolina and Davidson clash in their annual football game. This is the first time since 1911 that the Presbyterians have appeared on the local gridiron. That fall, with Everett Booe in the leading role, Davidson defeated Carolina '10 to 0. There was no game in 1912. Last year Carolina, after a refusal by Davidson to play the game in Charlotte as scheduled, humored Davidson and went to "the hill" for the game. Caro lina easily won, 10 to 0. Today's game promises to be hard fought and spirited. Davidson's form in previous games would indicate that the visitors have the advan tage, but Edgerton's men will give the followers of Fetzer a distinct surprise today. Carolina goes into the game to win, and if they do not, their opponents will know they have had a tough battle. On the Davidson team are sev eral South Carolina boys. Cosmo Walker. of Columbia, is consid ered by many as one of the best backfield men in Southern foot ball. L. H. Anderson, of Ander (.n, will be seen at right tackle. He weighs 180 and is one of Davidson's best line men. Bob Walker, a brother of Cosmo, is p'aying sub-end and will be seen in the lineup. Robert McKay, of Sumter, will probably start the game at one of the guards. Debating Council Meets. The Debating Council met Wedneseay to discuss the pros pects for arranging debates for this year. It was announced that Georgia and Tennessee had accepted our challenge for a tri angular debate, and that it will come off about May 1. Prac tically the same contract as used last year- with Virginia and Georgia will be used. The Debating Council is en deavoring to arrange a single debate with some southern uni versity, but as yet have not been able to (do so. It was also decided that if the Southern Oratorical Contest is held this year', that Carolina would participate. CAROLINA EASILY DEFEATS WAKE FOREST. Open Style of Play Feature of Game.

These scholarships are made possible by money gotten from the Peabody fund. Each scholarship is good for $120. The requirements for those wishing to obtain one of these scholarships are practically the same as for those getting teach ers' scholarships. The applicant must take work in the teachers' department while he holds one of these scholarships. It is probable that holders of these scholarships will have to act as librarians in the Department of Education library on certain af ternoors of the week. T1he aim of these scholarshii's is get more good men to take up the teachers' course. I wonder if Harold ,James is .Jollv?
