NUM EXCITING BASEB BETWEEN 126 Errors Made Engineering School Team Defeats Team of Com mercial School In one of the fastest games of baseball ever seen on Davis field, the School of Engineering Faculty downed the fast nine of the School of Commerce Faculty by the score of 36 to 20. The game developed into a veritable battle of pitchers, and the hitting of both sides was a feature of the game. The En gineers got off to a five run lead in the first inning, but the Commercials came back strong in their half of the first frame and when the second round began the score stood 10 to 5 with the Commercials on the long end. However, they never had an other chance to score hardly, only managing to acluire 10 more runs ihroughout the remaining eight in nings. Oleson, after blowing up in the first, tightened up again and sent 'em down as fast as they came up, walking only twenty men during the entire game. Mercer was going going good until he heard that more cars were parking on the street than on the athletic field ; this rattled him considerably and before he could re cover, the Commercials had scored 7 runs. Corrington led the hitting for the Engineers, getting 3 out of 14 times up. For the Commercials Baker was the leading slugger with two safeties out of 12 times at hat. Both teams fielded well, there being only 126 errors made during the en tire contest. Teeple walked to start the first; Corrington connected with one for two base, scoring Teeple. Tabor got a pass as he looked dangerous; Rowe, as clean-up mian, also got a free ticket to the first station; Wau chope also walked. With the bases loaded, Jackson flied out. Lipscomb hit one on the nose into deep left, and as Merriweather was deep in the study of baseball history, he let it go over his head, with the result (Continued on Page Five) "BULL" FACTORY BEGINS OPERATIONS Turner and Earle Black Promo ters of New Concern A new industry has made its orig inal appearance in the cap)ital city.

CO-EDS SWAMP VARSITY Gamecocks Downed by Pullets in Thrilling Post-season Game In a thrilling contest last evening the Carolina Co-ed Basketball team defeated the Varsity to the tune of 69 to 3. The battle was staged at the home of Prof. andI Mrs. George W7auchope, and was witnessed by a floor-breaking crowd. The game was tense throughout, as the score indicates, but was mark ed by the terrifically rough playing of the Co-eds. T"he Eds were hand icapped by having but five players to the Co-eds six.

For 0 some time Marshal CanteY has no- r ticed a bit of drunkediess among e people connected with the Uni- t verity anl detailed his two most V proficient men on the case. "Sleuth" t Causey noticed the increased num ber of visits of Dr. Burney and Maurice 'Matteson to the chapel and N suspected that it had something to s do with the mystery. However, an 0 examiination disclosed nothing, and r as the visitors returned apparently t sober, "Toots" dropped that end of i it, however, Assey would not put f the possibility out of his mind, and t under pretense of studying chemis- 1 try, made frequent visits to the t home of the trusted professor. He a noticed that Dr. Burney excused s himself rather frequently and al- t ways appeared to he in higher spirits N upon returning. Mr. Causey, on his round with "Judge" one evening, t left him near Dr. Burney's home, happened to glance back and see him t (art into the cellar. Calling his col league, they armed themselves an( forced their way into the cellar, sur prising therein the entire chemistry department of the school, including t Drs. Lipscomb and Rice and 'Mr. 1 Josey. U Tpol investigation they found an ordinary spigot from which came the odors of "spirits that were."

O L S' PROPRIATES FOR THE U. S. C. Favored By Everyone Presidents of Other State Colleges Plead For Carolina Nothing has ever causde as much excitement oil this old catilptis and in the City of Columbia as the ac tion taken by the Legislature before it adjourned last week. It actually remembered that the University of South Carolina was a state support ed institution. Several montlis ago the trustees of the University met inl regular meeting and drew the budget for the following year. It took some time to go over everything in detail. Finally the trustees agreed to a bud et asking for fifteen hundred thous and dollars. Dr. Melton went be fore the governor and he was sur prised that lie asked for such a small aiount. The governor said that education could not make any pro gress inl this state unless the ulni versity, the "cap-stone of education in the state," received its proper share of moncy. I le went into a lo)Ing discussion to tell of the many ways that the University was ex pected to lead in this feld. "Whv. here vou are oIly asking for about two hundred thousand dollars for completion of the wmilen's drm itory that we gave lifty thousand (dllars for last year as a starter. You couldn't begin to compIlete all of the buildings as planied unless you have more. I will recomnicnd that they give three hundred thius and dollars for this pirivise."
