vo_ Ix ,UNI-VERSITY OF SOUTH CAROLINA, COLUMBIA,_S. C., JANUARY 18, 1916.No13 IKUSItES ASK SOLONS FOR APPROPRIATION Curators Recommend Items in Annual Statement. LAW BUILDING WANTED Extension of Heating Plant and Establishment of New Chairs Included in Budget. Ii their annual statement to the General Assembly the trus t e- of the University of South Carolina ask, in addition to the a)propriation for the general ex penses. of the University, that $35, 000 be appropriated for build inrs, $4,500 for establishment of new chairs, and $31,517.85 for sip e ial itemis. Under this latter it2 n ar. inclu led, among other things, repairs, -printing plant, extension service, and summer school. Of the amount askt for build ings it is proprosed to expend $40,000 in the erection of a law biilding. At present, one room inadeqately equipt in every re spect, serves as a class room for t e three profes.ors, a moot ceirt room, and at meetring p;ace for the Law Associati( n. The onary facilitie are als- insuffi c:.nt to meet the needs of the c-mstantly growing law school. To extend the heating plant to: all buildings on the campus, about $44,000 will be required. It the wvhole am >nit cannot be granted this year, the legislature is urgd to appropriate $22,000 this year and the remainder in 1917. Extension of the heating servi2e reduces fire risk and aid janitor service, and provides more comfort and convenience to the students. The remaining $3,000 of the, item for buildings will, if appro priated, be applied to the erec tion of a house for the Superin dent of Grounds and Bui;dings. Tho the State has provided for, the instructionof' students in law, engineering, medicine, teaching, agriculture, etc., yet there is no school where those mien who ex-! pect to enter the business world ca,in learn the principles of con merce and finance. To fill this need, an appropriation of $3,000 is recommended for the estab lishment of a school of Corn mnerce and Finance. Appointment of an associate professor in the department of HIistory at a salary of $1,500 is also urged in the stnament to THIRD TERM OFFICERS CHOSEN BY SOCIETIES Templeton Clariosophic Presi dent.

WARREN OF VIRGI COACHING STA WILL MEET CLEMSON NEXT FRIDAY NIGHT The Carolina basketball quin tet will meet the Clemson College team in the University gymna sium Friday evening at 8:30. The game promises to be. a battle royal, if reports are true. It is reported that the Tiger team is coining strong and that the for mer bunch is counting on steal ing the Gamecock's tail feathers. A large crowd is expected. Manager Farrell said Monday that his team will go up against Clemson stronger than she was when she playd Wofford. Coach Blackburn has had the men hard at work living down the disgrace of being beaten by the Metho dists. It will be of interest to Garnet and Black fans to know that A. Fuller Brooker has been declared e'igible to play baskethall for Carolina. This materially strengthens the team, since Brooker was a Gamecock star year before last. The Carolina line-up for Fri day night's fray, as announct by the manager, will probably be as follows: Martin, center; -imms and Farrell, guards; Bow en and Talley, forwards. Spartanburg County Club. The Spartanburg County Club was organized today at a meet ing in F;inn Hall. The follow ing officers were chosen: D. D. Sanders, president; L. B. Harri son, vice president: J. G. Waters, secretary; A. L. Wardlaw, treas urer. Spartanburg County, next to Rlichland County, in which Columbia is located, has the largest enrollment at the University of any county in the State. Tonqiiin E. LaGrone, LL. B. '15, is in the city attending the meeting of the General Assem bly, of which he is a member. LaGrone has been in Washington working and pursuing a course of stuLy in Georgetown. J. S. McInnes, LLI.

NIA TO HEAD FF OF GAMECOCKS Old Dominion Athelte Comes to South Carolina. FOSTER FROSH COACH Hill and Mills, University Stars, to Assist--To Hav Ad visory Coaches. W. Rice Warren, former head coach at the University of Vir ginia, will be head coach at the University of South Carolina next year. W. Dixon Foster, for several years head of athletics at Por ter Military Academy will coach the freshmen team. John D. Mills and Luther Hill, both Caro lina stars, will be assistants to Mr. Warren. Dr. N. B. Edgerton, who has coacht Carolina for the past four years, was not an applicant for the position on account of his medical practice having grown so that he has not time to give to coaching next year. Dr. Edgerton will, however, give some time to Carolina, as he has consented to be one of the ad visory coaches, the other mem hers to be three alumni and one member of the faculty. Carolina feels that she is ex tremely fortunate in securing Mr. Warren for head coach. lie comes to the University with an enviable record as player and as instructor. In 1913, when he was head coach at Virginia, his team lost only one game and that one was to Georgetown, the score being Georgetown 8, Virginia 7. Mr. Warren is now studying medicine at Virginia and will be gradluated in Jinik. Mr. Foster will hav charge of the freshmen, and they will play an entire season of ball, making several trips. Mr. Fos ter made a fine record as a play er at Hamp(den-Sidney and his record a: instructor at Porter Military Academy was good.
