C., Oct. 30, 1917 .- c Elitarial Explanation We do not want to begin our work by making excusses, but, in .iustice to all concerned, we must announce that the issue given to the public today should have been published last week by the retiring board. 'Th ru some misunderstanding, we were called upon only yesterday- -at the eleventh hour --- to get the paper off the press. We are re sponsible only for the editorials tJ of this issue. CYRUs L. SHEALy. Oct. 30, 1017. Greeting In assuming the duties, and the attendant responsibilities, of editor-in-chief of Tw GAME COCK, we feel, very keenly, our inability. but, since our fellow students have chosen us for this particular work, we will, in no wise, shirk it. And while we may not measure up to the stand ard set by our distinguished pred ecessors, we will endeavor to make this publication at least readable. But this will be no small task, and the staff, however f iligent and zealou., cannot pro.. duce a weekly worthy of' this Uni versity unless the student body lends its active assistance. TH'IE GAMECOCK should be the mnedium through which the ac tivities of the students and1 pro- I fessorsare made known; it should be the mouthpiece of the student body; it should1( carry the spirit of Carolina on every page, and, in the true Gamtecock spirit, this should be done in a whole-heart.. ed, courdgeous manner.
