HATS OFF TO THE TEAM
The basket ball season of 1916
17 has come to an end. We were,
not so successful as we had eount
ed on being, but our season was
far from a failure. No one can
say that we did not play just as
clean a game as any team that
ever went on the floor. No one
can say that the team did not
fight hard for victory in every
game. This is true athletics after
all. Besides this we won a ma-.
jority of the games. Hats off to
Coach Foster, hats off to the team,
and hats off to the management.
May every season be as great a
suc.cess, and may every team give
us the right to he as proud of them
as we are of this one.
HIGH SCHOOL DEBATING
We notice that in the high
school meet program, to be held
here in April. no debating is in
cluded. This is a bad oversight.
In other states, triangular de
bates are held between cities
most accessable to each other.
Tlie winners meet the winners of
some adjacent triangular contest,
and so on until the contesting
high schools have narrowed down
to one school in each part of the
state, according to the most log
ical geographical division. These
two winners select the team rep
resenting them that upholds the
side they draw on the querry,
and the two successful teams
meet each other at the Univer
sity.
I)ehating, in some respects, is
a training that can be gotten in
no other way. Encourage it and
give the University one more
point of contact with the high
schools of the state.
COED ATHL.ETICS
What has become of' the coed's
physical training class? Why
are oIr coeds so far behind those
of* other co-educational institu
tions, when it comes to athletics?
Perha)s the answer to the first
<Iiestionl will give us asoution to
the second. But. he this as it
may, something is undisputably
wrong. Why should there be two
years of compulsory physical
training for the boys and none
for the girls? Why should the
boys have a monoply on athletic
teams representing the Univer
sity? With two girls' colleges
right here in Columbia, and scores
within easy reach in the state,
the plea certainly cannot b)e no
Olopponents. The trouble lies with
the UJni versity au thorities, anid
with the coeds themselves. Some
one of' you fair sex take the lead
and start something mohving. Let
the boys know you are on the
camp)us in some other way be
sides forcing them to dodg -into
tenement doom's on a hot after-'
noon, or' watching you blush
when under' some of the rasher
pmr >fessors. Wake up! There is
s .mething more to college life
