J. B. Dufie, Editor
T. W. Wallace, a member of
last year's law school, was on
the campus this week.
E. L. Williams, a last year
graduate, and a member of the
firm of Blakeney and Williams
of Kershaw, was in the city
Tuesday on professional busi
ness.
Mr. T. K. Trotter, of the sen
ior class, was one of the seven
men who successfully passed the
State bar examination held Wed
nesday and Thursday. Nineteen
stood the eAmination.
The members of the Law Asso
ciation are reminded of the fact
that the moot court will be held
on Wednesday night instead of
Thursday, as is customary. The
change was necessitated because
of the fact that the series of
meetings to be held by the Y. M.
C. A. begins Thursday night,
and this action was taken as a
special favor to them.
Moot Court December 9.
The case for trial in the moot
court December 9 is one involv
ing a question of usury. The
attorneys are as follows: Plain
tiff, Crawford and LaGrone; De
fendant, Meyer and McLeod.
Proceedings of the Moot Court.
The regular weekly meeting of
the moot court was held Thurs
day night. A murder case, one
of the most interesting heard
this year, was tried. The ac
cused was tried on a chain of
circumstantial evidence. The
abbreviated facts are as follows:
The prisoner previous to the al
leged killing had been on un
friendly terms with the alleged
deceased, having made several
threats against him. The State
tried to show that these circum
stances constituted the motive
for the crime. Subsequently,
after the deceased had been
n.issing for some time, a coat
was found with a cut place and
some blood on it. Coupled with
this, the prosecution contended
that the defendant when arrest
ed made a confession admitting
that he had fixed the deceased.
A t the. conclusion of the State's
case the presiding judge, Prof.
Rucker, directed the jury to
bring in a verdict of not guilty,
the prosecution having failed to
make out a prima facie case.
The attorneys were: For State,
Schwartz and Webster; for De
fendant, Adams and Duffle.

FINANCIAL REPORT
OF FOOTBALL, TEAM
Large Deficit-Result of Past
Season's Reverses.
The financial report of the
football team shows a deficit of
$1922.57 less than the net pro
ceeds from the 386 breakage fees
signed away. The loss is about
$800.
Student's tickets to the Clem
son and Citadel games cost the
athletic association $375. Of
course, the students have signed
away their breakage fees, but
they could help wonderfully if
they would pay fifty cents ad
mission to each of these games.
The report below shows that
the price of the season tickets
should be raised from $3. to $5.
If this had been the case this
year, the Athletic Association
would be out of debt and have
about $150. left over for basket
ball expenses.
