"DRAMA IN AMERICA" SUBJECT OF ADDRESS Dr. Archibald Henderson De livered Literary Theme. "The Drama in America" was the subject of the lecture deliv ered by Dr. Archibald Hender son, dramatic :ritic and profes sor of Mathematics in the Uni versity of North Carolina, in the chapel Monday evening. The lecture was well attended and was thoroly enjoyed by the liter ateurs present. Dr. Henderson told of the de velopment of the modern drama and how the literary field has changed from other phases of literature to the drama. Three tendencies are noted in the mod ern drama, the spirit of cosmo politanism, the influence of the drama upon the social life of the present, and the futurist tenden cy. Speaking of the futurist tendency, the speaker recalled Ibsen's toast, "To that which is to be; to that which is to come." In closing, Dr. Henderson said that the purpose of his visit to Columbia was to arouse an inter est in the Drama League of America, which he delivered somewhat in detail, and to organ ize, if possible, a Columbia chap ter of the national organization. Immediately after the conclu sion of the lecture a tentative organization was formulated which in time hopes to affiliate with the Drama League of Amer ica. Dr. George A. Wauchope, prof. of English, was elected president, and W. W. Ball, edi tor of The State, was made sec retary. The Co-ed at Oxford. Editor of THiE GAMECOCK, I have a bright grandson who is one of the Rhodes scholars at Oxford University, England, where women students have only lately been admitted. He writes: "A great many silly re gulations are made to keep the two sets of students entirely apart. The proctors have strict ly forbidden that an undergra duate should be seen with a 'female student' on any occas sion. An amusing event occur ed a few days ago when an American lady residing in Ox ford invited a number Rhodes scholars to her home one even ing to meet some of the college girls. The following wyarning was contained in each invitation: 'Please do not offer to escort any young lady home, for if seen by a proctor, you might be asked1 to leave Ox ford.'" What do you, Mr. Editor, and what do our fair Co-Eds. think of such a regulation? How wvould it suit for the University of S. C., and who would be first to rebel against it, the boys or the girls? Let a Co-Ed answer. With all good wishes to THE GAMECOCK, E. S. .Joynes TRACK TEAM IS READY FOR WOFFORD Men Are Practicing Daily for Easter Week Event.

CAROLINA STUDENTS REFEREE TRACK MEETS Men Conduct High School Meets All Over State. During the last several years this institution has been actively engaged in various lines of ex tension. Every year the athletic director here picks out several men, usually those doing track work, and gives them special in structions as to how to conduct a meet. Then, when the var ious high schools ask for men to conduct their track meets these men are sent. The men who will conduct meets at different places this spring are, LaMotte, Stewart, H. J. W. Kizer, Cog geshall, Geer, Templeton, Gam brell and Danner. LaMotte and Stewart refereed a meet at Lexington yesterday; on April 1 two men will oversee al meet at Camden; on April 15 one at St. Mathews. There will be other engagements for these men later on and they will also conduct the annual State High School Meet which is held here every spring. Cross-Country Run.
