CAROLINA SUPPORTERS WATCH WOFFORD WIN Methodist Quintet Defeats Gamecocks in Well Matcht Basketball Game. The Carolina quintet went down in defeat before the Wof ford five last Wednesday night in an extremely hard con tested basketball game. The final score was 21 to 19 in favor of the Methodists. The game, was started by Ref eree Van Meter at 8:30 o'clock and from the minute the ball was put into play until the time keeper's last whistle blew the result couldn't be determined by anyone. Every man on the floor put the best in him in the game and it is hard to pick any especial stars. However, for the winners, Turner, at right forward and Hines at left for ward playd stellar ball. While for Carolina, Bowen at left for ward and Simms at right guard showed up well. The chief feature of the game was the large number of fouls occuring on both sides, Wofford netting 11 and Carolina 14. Turner for the Methodists shot five out of eleven chances at goals from fouls and Bowen shot seven out of twelv chances. The first half of the game past without any exciting mo ments but when the second half started excitement ran high from the outset. The teams be ing so evenly matcht raced up and down the court neither be ing able to secure a safe lead. Several times the game bade fair to be a tie- but during the last few second of play by a lucky shot the Methodists forged two points ahead and thus won.

NOTED SPEAKERS TO COME IN SPRING Christian As, oci xtion Secures Men of Mention for Inter esting Addresses. An unusually strong list of speaker4 have been secured to address the Y. M. C. A. meet ings this spring. Among these are Mr. Edward C. Mercer, usu ally known as "Ted", and his friend and co-worker Tom Far mer. Every Carolina man who iheard these two men last year will be glad to know that they are to return. Mr. Mercer will speak in Flinn Hall March 1st. and will also address a number of smaller groups. On March 15th Dr. Charles E. Barker, who was physical advi sor to ex-president Taft, and who lectured in Columbia on the Cha tauqua platform last year. will speak on the "Rational Sex Life." Some time during March Dr. W. D. Weatherford, Internation al Secretary for the South, will deliver a series of addresses on "Fundamentals of the Christian Faith." This series of addresses will prove of infinit value to those who hav intellectual difficulties in the Christian life. Dr. Weath erford's coming will be one of the most important events in the college year. It seems very probable that Bishop McDowell will be secured to address the Carolina students during the Laymen's Missionary Convention. Bishop McDowell is easily the best speaker on the program. and to secure his ser vices will be fortunate indeed. Her silver light falls on ancient walls And on the wane serane. In their sphere divine the star worlds chime, Dance in the lake below, And the voice is heard of some night bird In dreamy anthem flow. But the rising gale brings sound of wail, The student stands aghast; At the dead of night, in horrid plight, The gloomy phantom past. On funeral pyre in word of fire, "Eaminations'' blazed! He feared in his heart tomorrow's )art, His mind was wholly crazed. But the fright soon past, it could not last, "Tomorrow's" sun sinks low, And the bouyant soul laughs o'er the bowl, Nor sorrowv does it know. The tra.nquil lights, from windy heights, At night thru wiudows look, Continuous speak, in accents sweet, The student's at his book. And the winds that sigh, as clouds roll by, Shall waft his cares away; Selene's light shall rule the night, -Hyperion rule the (lay.
