You speak to the people, Record, you make the noise. On olserving what Carolina Alumni have done for- athletics here, Wofford Alumni are get ting together to resurrect athle tics over there. Here's to the 1920 Gamecocks -their feats on the gridiron wifl live forever in the memories Qf Carolina men. Wonder Eleven, Carolina has never before had a team to equal you. Some gentlemen has left the University of Texas an endow ment of $1,000,000. Looks like somebody might leave the. Uni versity of South Carolina an en dowment some time. . We used to have an idea that England had democratic tenden cies, and that Britannica was a kind and gentle ruter. But her treatment of Ireland has just about reversed our ideas. Carolina has defeated every football team in the state except Furman and Erskine. Furman has defeated every team in the state except Carolina and P. C. * Now, who are the state chain pions? The University of New York has entered into a contract with Carolina .whe9eby the two col legocfill debate each other.

Well, how did those mid-term grades look to your weary, studied-out eyes? - Were. they what you were looking for, or were they B's and C's. If they were, the -1atter,' which we sin cerely hope was not the case ,if not for your own sake, then for love of Carolina and her scholas tic standing in the eyes of great er institutions of learning, do your best to retrieve ypurpelf during the remainder of the term. Carolina must forge ahead in her literary standing. FOOTBALL FINALE. With the defeat of the Cita del, one of Carolina's most dan gerous and bitter rivals, the cur tain fell on the football reason at Carolina. The season just closed was the most successful of any which she has' had in many years. She won every game which she played within the boundaries of the state of South Carolina, a total of five victories. She lost four outside of the state, only one of which she had any hopes at all of win ning. By means of this sum mary, it is seen thtt the Game cocks were the winners in five out of nine games which she played. Only once was Carolina scored on by a college in South Carolina--that one being well known as the Citadel. This is a record which only one other col lege in the state has equaled, and one which Carolina men can be nore than justly proud of. It 'has been a glorious year for the Gamecocks, a glorious year for football at Carolina. It has been a year which saw the birth of another Southern won der eleven. To wl}om goes the credit for making this such a year? There were many factors which made the ju st-closed sea son such a wonderful success. We may say/llrst, that the Alumni made up one factor; The coaches which they gave us a second. The.support of the fac ulty a third. The undivided sup port and backing of the entire student body a fourth. And, fin ally, the team itself. Nevev be fore, we will venture to say,. has there been such whole-hearted backing of the team within the student body. Twice hundreds followed the team to foreign ter ritory and cheered like they never -knew they were able to cheer, with the indominatable Blacknmon leading them on. Every one knows how ;hey yelled at home. The Gamecocks have always been known for their Oghting spirit, And this yeQt A A no. eteeption.

"EASTWARD," Eastward in gentle undulation, Away yonder there lodms a hill Where pine- trees, sentinelled station, Day .long a gracious shadow spill Over the hill's~loftiest lifting They draw a carven, dusky trail Upon cloudland, whose slow rifting Reflects day's last, beams ere they fail Rose and orange, in' pale repeat ing, There meet the pines' jade tinted spires- .

Lamps that salute day's end of toiling And cheer on hungry farm-. , lands shed; Lamps welcome to the children coiling Game weary limbs that long for bed The glimmers, one by one, now fade In darkness that no stat Is *breakIng; Every wind whisper low is laid; No grass or weed Its spear is shaking Yet still, for rne, those tall pines rise Where, in dim, ~pest silence, -are sleepin*.
