N.J CAROLINA WINS IN FIRST GAME AT HOME Lads from Presbyterian College Defeated by Rally in Ninth Inning. MANY HLTS AND ERRORS Gamecocks Enter Ninth With Score 4 to 3 Against Them But Win by Consist ent Batting. Staging a sensational ninth inning rally, the University of South Carolina scored two runs, just enough to win over the Presbyterian College of South Carolina to open the season here Monday afternoon, with a 5 to to 4 victory. A double by Gibbes Richards sent the winning counter over after a single by Gressette had tied the score. The game, while developing some erratic play, was interest ing throughout, and the sensa tional climax sent the Game cocks' supporters home in an ex cellent humor. The field feature was a catch by Gressette, while the hitting of the Richards brothers and a home run by Williamson and three hits by Alford were the of fensive features.

WOFF( WINNERS OV1 A -:= JOSEPH HOROWITZ CAROLINA L DEFEA 7 Garnet and Black Triumphs By Decisive Vote of Fou in New York City On last Friday night the Uni versity of South Carolina de feated New York University in debate in the intersctional de bate between the two institu tions. Debating the query, "Re solved, That the A. B. C. Powers be invited by the United States to co-operate in the establish ment of a joint protectorate over Haiti," the University's negative team, according to New York au thorities, acquitted itself in a masterly manner, "equaling that of any college debaters heard at the University of New York this year." Carolina's team was com posed of W. C. Mann and Joseph Horowitz. The judges of the contests weye: Cushman Mclffer, presi dent of the Union Theological Seminary, New York City; Arthur L. James, principal of the boys' high school, Brooklyn ; Henry D. Smith, New York City; William F. Quigley, Assistant District Attorney of Bronx County, New York, and Paul A. McNally, of Fordham Univer sity. The Chairman was Archibald Lewis Bouto, dean of the college of arts of New York University.: Alumni of the University of: South Carolina in New York have looked forward with a great' deal of interest to this contest and attended in large numbers.| They are still rejoicing over their'Alma Mater's decisive vic tory. New York University will send a team to Columbia next year to meet South Carolina, the present agreement calling for two debates. )RD vs. ( 'R NEW YORK .W. C. MANN )EBA TERS SNEW YORK Over Northern Opponents r to One. Debate Held -Here Next Year. The North and South debate was established this year, or re sumed rather, as an annual event, and each year contests will be arranged with institu tions of the North. The Univer sity of South Carolina debating council in suggesting the estab lishment of an annual debate with a Northern institution, had in mind the fact that for over half a century after the Confed rate war the position of the South has still been misunder stood and sectional hatred seems to continue to make itself spora dically manifested. These de bates, bringing the sections into closer contact, is expected in some measur to undermine the insidious forces of anti-Southern prapaganda and to establish in the North a center of right thinking on the subject. Students and friends of the University are gratified with the results of foreinsix activities so far this year, having won both the Triangle debate with Tennes see and Florida, and the dual de bate with New York University. DR. CURRELL LEAVES TO MAKE ADDRESSES. Dr. W. S. Currell, President of the University, left on last Wed nesday for Lynch burg, Va., where he addressed the Spex club on "Some phases of wit and humor." From Lynchburg Dr. Currell went to Nashville, Tenn., to deliver two addresses before the meeting of the teach ers' association in session there this week. Dr. Currell will return on or about the 16th. ZAROLINJ SUPERINTENDENT HAND ADDRESSES Y. M. C. A. Carolina Alumnus Makes Im pressive Remarks Before Weekly Meeting. MUCH INTEREST SHOWN. Men of the University Urged to Choose Well Their Life Work. Supt. W. H. Hand of the city schools made an interesting ad dress before the University Y. M. C. A. on last Wednesday evening. Professor Hand urg ed men who had not chosen their work after leaving college to consider the teaching profes sion. Mr. Hand attributes many failures to the fact that men in many instances inherit their profession. Those who allow themselves to drift rather than consider that they can do best fail to attain he success they should. Five questions should be an swered by the individual before entering a profession: (1) Am I fitted by nature to do this work? (2) Am I fitted by training? (3) Is the work con genial to me? (4) What is my attitude toward life? (5) What shall the remuneration be? The first duty of evry man is to make a living and an honest one, but life should be made ,W"rth living. Teaching has never been con sidered in the manner it should. There is no greater joy to be derived from life than' is fur nished by the profession of teaching. To watch and care for the development of the younger generation is a calling to which the capable only should respond. There can be no higher calling than that which promotes the welfare and happiness of our youth. MY SALARY.

PITCHERS ARE WILD. Errors Responsible for Seced ers' Victory-Wildness on Part of Pitchers Enables Newberry to Win. The University of South Car olina baseball team found hard sledding in the games with Ers kine and Newberry Colleges last week, and both of these came out victors. Errors, coupled with wildness of Carolina pitchers, enabled the visitors to win in both contests. The Erskine game: After nearly three hours of wild throwing, wild hitting, wild pitching and last, but not least, wikt thining, Erskine won from the University of South Carolina 13 to 11 Thursday afternoon, in what was called a baseball game, because the two teams were at it nine innings. This was the only excuse for calling the affair a baseball game. The visitors came into the ninth inning at the little end of a big score, the count then being 11 to 10. Captain Phillips start ed it with a hit, the only one of the inning, but Buck Pressley's lads copped the endurance con test then and there, when the Gamecocks began to throw the ball around. The total for the inning was three. Carolina made a round half dozen counters good in the sixth inning, and when the smoke of this round was over, had a lead of four runs. But what is four runs in a skirmish that is to record a grand total of 24. Douglass Harbison, who acted as umpire, was the goat for he worked, enough to last an entire series. The box score shows a variety of figures from one up: itSKINE. .\I til P0 A ': lvwini. r ........ .....' 3 o 0 0 A.n.w............... 6 1 2 3 2 2 Phillips. :1h .........5 3 41 2 3 1 Hear~1d.
