A student's poetry often turns out to be a po'try. "Infernal poipoise,'' Quoted old Mrs. Malaprop, "You give me the staggers. What has become of the old fashioned sophomore that used to take the freshmen snipe hunt ing? Funny, isn't it, how you have to get down to brass tacks be lore you can make a fellow see the point? Many of us were awardledI block "C's'' by the faculty last Moith, and some even went so far as to get a D)avidson block I(etter.

Maybe the boat that towed the Deutchland out of New London harbor was one of those tugs of war we hear them speaking of. Of course, we leave criticism for the high brows, but voicing the sentiment of the hoi polloi, we have had more real fun at many a two bit show than we did at the Ballet Russe. APPRECIATION This week's issue of THE GAME COCK is dedicated to the Carolina foot-ball team of 1916. Their record in games won and lost was not as high as that of the previous years. Although begin ning the season under great dis advantages, they gradually im proved by steady and efficient coaching, ending the season in a creditable manner. Not discour aged by defeat, backed by a few faithful cheerers, they fought each game from beginning to end, no matter how the score stood. Owing to the unfortunate con dition of our athletics last sea son, and the institution of the one year rule, we could not hope to do better than we did. As a result of these handicaps we were forced to have an inexpe rienced team, as shown by the fact that but two players who started last season's Clemson game were on the varsity this year. There is a silver lining to every cloud. We have laid the found ation this season for a better team next year, buried unclean athletics at Carolina, and put out a freshman team that was a CrOdit this Season and will be a valuable asset to next year's varsity. ST1ll. IIERE We had begun to think that "Pep" at Carolina had died and were about to run a runeral notice in THE GAMECOCK. Game after game a few fathfuls, sprinkled here and there on the kleachers, sent up cheers for the Garnet and Black eleven as they fought on the gridiron. Old "Pep" recovered from his spell and on Thanksgiving was on Davis Field in form that brought back (lays of days of 1912. The cheering of the stu (lent body on this occasion was nothing short of excellent, and it is to be oommended. They stoodI on the bleachers in a driz zling rain and cheered lustily throughout the game. They showed the alumni and people of the State that they were still alive andl were p)roud of their team.
