pd fo Caro&lina- 1000 STUDENTS ot Pu UOut by 1925 Vrot'. XV. UINIVERSITY OF SOUTH CAROLINA, COLUMBIA, S. C., OCTOBERI3.11.N2 GAMECOCKS SC) IN HARD F Belk, Holland, McPb The Carolina eleven annexed a second victory in as many starts when it took the Newberry out fit into camp by a 7-0 count. The score gives a fair indication of the hard fought battle staged on University field Saturday. The Indians were on the warpath and the Gamecock spurs were not as sharp as "fandom" thought, but Carolina won, and that's the big idea in a football game! The invading eleven uncorked a punch and drive that was a sir prise and a source of worry for the Garnet and Black supporters. But, although shy of some of the drive of former Caronna defend ers, Metzger's wards came thru with the goods in the second peri od and carried the oval over many white lines, and Billy Hol land skirted right end for the necessary 15 yards to plant the pig skin behind the line "which many strive for, but few reach." Belk's trusty right toe .gave another point to the total when he kicked goal. Before and after the only scor ing both teams alternated pos session of the ball. Both elevens stood in the shadows of their goal posts several times, but with their backs to the wall, proved impenetrable. During the series of plays which resulted in the Carolina counter, the Garnet and Black machine showed at push that sat isfied the most pessimistic of the "bleacher 'coachers." I-here was displayedi a sample of what the old reliable crew will be when they strike their stride. As all football teams will do, the home crew made some mistakes and didn't do some things that woul(d have helped matters some, but that's all in the game. TI"hey di(d what they were out there for, to beat Newberry, whether by one point or by fifty. The Gamecock did not appear on the field in all its brilliancy, for some of its feathers were lacking. Captain Gressette and Alex Waite were on the side lines nursing injuries to their pedulari extremities. Gressette may be' out for several more games, in fact he may have to wvatch the re maining games from the side lines. Waite will probably re cover sufficiently to be in the North Carolina game. But newv feathers came out to fill the ca cancies, and right well they did (Continued on page 5.) TAl RLP INDIANS 'OUGHT BATTLE ee and Gardner Star UNIVERSITY WILL HAVE GLEE CLUB One would not imagine that so mluch musical talent was here at Carolina if lie had not seen the rush that took place for berths oin the Glee Club at the first re hearsal of last week. The old chapel was filled up with appli cants, the basses on one side and the tenors on the other. Those who could not decide otherwise, were able to determine the exact pitch of their voice by the toss of a coin, a method which proved unsatisfactory to the director, Mr. Mairice Matteson. Many were distinctly disap pointed when Mr. Matteson Pn nounced that he had not found anyone to take the place of Caru so, but much consolation was found when lie said that many had excellent voices on which to build a good Glee Club. Twas an irony of fate that many a fright cned songbird was forced to sing "Ain't We Got Fun" while his knees were wobbling to the tune of "Home, Sweet Home." After a series of "Ah-s-s-s" with rising inflection the following tempo rary assignments were made: Basses: J. M. Miller, R. M. Smith, J. it. Sullivan, 13. L. Smith W. H-. Clayton, J. E. Hankins, V. J. Ready, J. P. Bowen, L. B. Cox. Baritones: H. F. Smith, C. Karesh, V. B. Cave, E. M. Baker, II. 11. Crosby, D. Stepnens, C. T. IBullock, E. L. Johnson, L. G. liarr, L. E. Smith, H. F. William son, C. B. Williams. Second Tenors: G. M. Gasque, II. B. Abrams, V. M. Martin, J. Ml. Oliver, J. M. Millard, J. E. Ready, L. M. Price, E. B. Castle, H. M. Wise. First Tenors: E. TI. Thomp son, J. Horowitz, A. P. Ragsdale, C. A. Sherrill, R. W. Baxter, M. K. Waltz, Larry McLain. Much interest is being mani fested in the Glee Club and with a director of Mr. Matteson's abili %y there is every reason to expect a successfulm season. Al ready several trips omut over the state are being conisideredl. Fred Par ker, a piatnist whlo has had a good deal of experience in Glee Climb work, is assisting Mr. Matteson. Weekly meetings will he held in chapel every Mondlay night at eight o'clock. Those who sing, or think they can sing, are urged to turn out.

An important step made in col lege athletics at Carolina is the recent organization ot a Fresh man football team. A student body meeting held last Tuesday morning initiated the movement and called a special meeting of the Freshman Class. Plans for the teai were outlined by Dr. Reed Sinith. Five years ago the U7niversity had a Freshman team but for soie reason decided to discontinue it. A Freshman football team at the University will greatly fur ther interest in the game and promising material will in this way be given more and better at tention. Most all other southern colleges now have Freshman teams which are a material help to their varsity elevens. Coach Metzger also addressed the student body on the proposi tion and urged that all new men come out for the team. Tihe Freshmen held their meet ing Monday after chapel and manifested a great deal of inter est in the plans being made for them. Blake Edmunds was elect ed manager. Games with David son and Clemson Freshmen are under consideration as are also games with many of the stronger high school teanis of the state. ('ius Allen has been secured to coach them. GYMNASIUM PLANS WORK FOR YEAR The plans and program for the minor athletic teams of the Univ ersity this year are more compre hensive and clear-cut than ever before. In the first place there has been several additions to the staff of instructors. Mr. Laurence McLean, of Troy, N. Y. a former Y. M. C. A. Physical Director, will be first assistant to the Di rector of Physical Education. Mr. McLean will have direct charge of general gymnasium work, special superv,ision of the gymniastic teams. There is some excellent material on the University Campus for this particular team. A numlser of men have enrolled this year who have dlone consid(erable gymnastic wvork prior to coming to the Univ ersity. From last year's squad there is Wade Jenkins, "Buster" Gray, andl "Redl" McCall. These three men will dloubtless form the nucleus of a good size squad. BOXING.
