LAW DEPARTMENT "Ignorantia legi. neminem excusat" The Moot Court convened Wed nesday night and tried the case of the State vs. Howard. Prof. Marion Rucker presided as Chief Justice and Messrs. Wade and Curtis were his Associates. The State was represented by Messrs. Jones, Dillard, and Le sesne and the 'defendant by lVessis. Merrimon, Pender and Blatt. The case was the murder of Haskell Jordan which occurred after a fight between Jordan, the deceased, and the defendant, William Howard. After the af fray the defendant exclaimed, "Damn you; I'll fix you for this; I am going to get you before the dawn of another month!" La ter, the deceased was found dead and declared that "William Howard has shot and killed me!" This evidence was not admitted as the deceased still had hope of recovery. All the evidence was circumstantial. The witnesses having been closely examined, the attorneys argued forcibly for their respec tive sides. The jury was thoroly instructed by Judge Rucker and retired. A mistrial was ordered, the jury being unable to agree. The lectures delivered by Mr. D. A. Daly, Esq., of Chicago, on "How to find the Law" proved most interesting and practical. Messrs. Wade, Heyward, and Wan.namaker were appointed as a committee to draw up resolutions of thanks and appreciation. The senior class was fortunate to have Chief Justice Gary to ad dress them Wednesday morning. He outlined the p:ace of the law yer in life and the important role he must play in the future to better law and government The junior-senior law class foot ball game was playeJ Saturday. Dr. Morse in Charleston. Dr. Josiah Morse delivered two addresses in Charleston Sunday, Nov. 28. His morning address was given in the Unitarian Church, the subject being, "The Meaning and Function of Reli gion." In the afternoon Dr. Morse spoke before the People's Forum on the subject of "Newer Poli tics and Patriotism." He seems to be a favorite with the people of Charleston, as this is his sec ond or third time to speak in the City by the Sea this fall. Dabbs announced at the dinner table: "I have some street car tickets for sale." A. M. Jones: "Where do they take you t ,?" CHAS. FARRELL PILOTS BASKETBALL TEAM' 'Varsity Man Elected Floor Man. ager by Advisory Board. The Student-body at a meeting two weeks ago in compliance with the request of the basket ball coach, decided to include in the list of men from which the Advisory Board was to elect the basketball manager only those men who played 'varsity ball. This was done in order to cut down the expense of carrying a man not on the squad as man ger. Mr. C. C. Farrell was elected by the Board as the manager of the basketball team. Mr. Farrell has played varsity ball here for three years and is captain of this year's team. He has shown great ability as a player and if his ability as manager only equals his ability as a. player, this year the Gamecocks may be certain of a good schedule. The prospects for a successful, season at Carolina this year are the best that have been seen.in a long time. A number of men have come in who have made en viable records at various prepara tory and high schools, and these coupled with the old men, nearly all of. whom are back, make a lively bunch to choose a winning quintet from. Last year was the first time in two years that the laurels. of State championship have rested else where than on the proud comb of the South Carolina Gamecock and this year the odds are all in fav or of the wreath being returned to its accustomed resting place. MRS. WRAY WILL TELL STORY OF ROBINS Carolina students were charm ed with the lectures delivered by Mr. Raymond Robins last week. Especially were they interested in the illustrations drawn from his own experiences in the mines, in the law courts, in the K,ohdike, and in his fights for clean government. However, many were disappointed in not hearing the story of his conver sion which he refrained from - tflling because he wishes to avoid being too personal. Wednesday night in Flinn Hall, those interested will I have the pleasure of fhearing theJ story of Mr. Robins' conversion i from the lips of one who isi largely responsible for it. This story is more interesting than any other in the life of Mr. Robins. Mrs. T. D. Wray, who1 will tell the story, is a woman of strong personality and is a sterling Christian. Every Caro lina man who is interested in Mr. Robins should hear her.
