Nunamaker Manager A Word of Appreciation The recent action of members of tie Columbia Kiwanis Club, in donating th< sum of $6,800 for the purpose of estab. lishing seventeen four-year scholarships at the University of South Carolina, is indeed highly commendable and is cer tainly worthy of emulation by similar organizations in this city and others throughout the state. It is praiseworthy from two viewpoints: educational and civic. From the educational viewpoini it is praiseworthy in that many young South Carolinians will be assisted in se curing a higher education, and from th< civic viewpoint in that we believe il marks the beginning of a new era in th< attitude of the people of Carolina toward our institution. As it is generally known the University has not been treated by the citizens of Columbia as it should hav< been, perhaps, but recently they hav< begun to see the University in a new light, and any unfriendliness or disrespec for it on their part that there may havc been in the past is being rapidly erad icated. The Kiwanians doubtless were mo tivated in making the gift by the desir< to show their prominent fellow member and our great president that they are he hind him body and soul in the work tha he has undertaken. We feel that th< establishment of these scholarships b the Kiwanis Club is only the beginning of other things to come to the Universit: from Columbia in the future. Kiwananians, we thank you one and al for the forward step that you have taker in bestowing this handsome gift upor our Alma Mater. Public Property A few days ago, while entering th( library,. a graduate student was seen to strike a match on the recently erecte< tablet to those former members o our student body Who so nobly gav their lives for the cause of Democracy I-e may not have realized what he wa doing, hut all of us here are old enougl - to knowov that public property is not to b damaged. These buildings have been put here fo our use by the people of the State. The are to be resp)ected. 'We are the custo (ianls of them. It is uip to us5 to showv t< thet rest of the State that we applreciat, what they have given uts. The only wvay ti stop such mutilation of p)roperty is fo every studlent to step in and take a hani when some careless studlent sets abou to dlestroy. If a fellow knows that he being watched he certainly will not allos himself to be caught in such an act. * A Suggestion K; In the majority of our class rooms w find a condition that (does not exist ii mayof theC institutions of higher learn which we refer is the bareness and tin attractiveness of the walls. 'This, howv ever, is unnoticeable to many of us, bu - whether noticed or not it is a conditio that (does not prodluce the very bes * psychic effect on the studlents or pro fessors. Moreover, in class rooms tha have been made attractive with painting * andl pieces of statuary which are con nectedl in some way with the subject taught therein the students are given am impettus to become more interested ii their courses, andl consequently they ge more out of themt than they otherwisi wvouldl. This conditior. is onie that cai be andl shouild be remedied. In this case, as iii all others, the inevit able quiestio)n arises. From what sourc< can wve get the money that is necessary At first this appears to he a dliffictil obstacle to overcome. The 1imited fund: appropriatedl by the legislature for th<n University are far from being enougl frother more necessary purp)oses, an< 'the Alumni are alreay urdened..m, wi.:l furnishing the finances for our football teams. So we cannot expect to secure any aid from either of these sources. However, there are the future graduate ing classes to fall back on, and we firmly believe that they can do much to im prove the appearances of the class rooms at Carolina. The plan we have in mind is a simple one and is one that has met with ad nirable success wherever given a fair trial. It is that each outgoing class do nate a certain amount, to be left at the discretion of the class, for the purpose of purchasing something that will add to the attractiveness of the class rooms or halls of the academic and other build ings of the institution. A competition is set up, each graduating class endeavoring to make a more beautiful and substantial gift than the preceding classes. The re suit is that before many years have pass ed the interior of the classrooms are made attractive and interesting to every ole. Besides the attractiveness added by these paintings, etc., they are some thing tangible and permanent that the members of the classes can point to with pride in later years and say that they had a part in the presentation of them to their Alma Mater. Is there anything to prevent us from putting this plan into effect at the University of South Caro lina, and why not let the class of '23 start the ball to rolling? Annual Gone to Press Manager Claude Sherrill reports that all of the material for the 1923 Garnet & Black has been turned into the printers. According to the contract they are to have ten weeks as a maximum in which to complete the job. He expects to have the new annuals ready for delivery about the first of June. At last the editorial staff, after watch ing many a mid-night hour pass in the e(litorial room, has completed its task. They have worked earnestly and faith fully at their work. They are now to get that well (leserve(d period of rest. A period of rest that will be enjoyed to the utmost because they know that they have given their best. There may be a few flaws here and there, but it must be remen->ered that even editors are nothing more than human and errors may escape their ever watchful eye. The annual this year will contain about fifty pages more than last year. The editor has endeavored to enlarge every section over that of previous years. He Coll(l not carry out all of his plans be cause of lack of the necessary funds. (One time he got so hard up for money that he had to swipe the copy paper for the Gamecock.) He leaves a plea with us. to try to increase the funds allotted to the annual work. If we want our an nial to keep abreast with the annuals of the other schools then the editor must not he handicapped by lack of money. There were many lelays in getting in material. In several cases the editor had to write-up some of the senior write-ups. 'lhus if you should find something wrong with the annual do not find fault with the staff, but ask yourself the question, "Did I do my part in helping the editor and his co-workers in getting out this volume ? "You will in all p)rob)ability find yourselif the one to blame. Amnong thle membnlers (of thle editorial staff to whom much credlit is due for the aniiual being a success are: Judson Ready, editor-in-chief ;Coleman Karesh, tsenior edlitor; E. Mt. Smith, senior edli tor; J. E. Millard, senior editor; Miss Lorraine Hendry, Co-ed editor ;J. F. H-ankins, junior edlitor; Calhoun Thom as, junior editor, and Epps Ready, chairman of the Joke section. Thle edlitor wvishes to thank the many Co-eds who so faithfully stuck by through all the struggle, especially Misses Heyward, Wilson, Penland, Bar roin andl Meredith for their kindness in trinmming tihe pictures, etc. (Continued from Page One) I up a perfectly good ball game a fter it had been going strong for tenl innings. Besides that, he had already hit a homer into dleep left, and he wvas one of the chief aids in the eighth inning rally which brought the Gamecocks from be hind and tied the score. B. Rhanme was on the job, too, when it camne to hitting! The contest offered many thrills. Caro t lina gainedl a lead of two runs before the seventh but in the seventh and eighth Mar ylandl .nlosedl ahead by one ruin. In the eighth Carolina again tied. In the ninth the Gamecocks threatened but they couldn't turn the trick until the tenth. The game fuirnished sonic excellent fielding. Kern and Itesley, the rival shortstops, conrtibuted somle goodl work. Kern is charged wyithi two errors, but lhe also did some clever fielding and( more thiain made til for his errors l)y his of both teams was good. Wallace for the Birds and Schriedei for the visitors put up a good game oi the slab, although each had his troubles Carolina scored once in the second *nipes was passed but was forced by Hol land. Bill stole second and scored ot Rhame's hit. Another was added in th sixth when Bill Holland pasted on< to deep left back to the scoreboard an< raced the sacks. In the seventh Remsberg walked aml went to second when a play on Watkins grounder to get him failed. With two oi Schreider bunted and Wallace threw thi ball to the end of the bleachers. All handi scored but Umpire Meeker ruled onli two bases on the throw, despite strenuou! objections from the Marylanders. Rens berg was allowed to score. In the eightl two hits, a pass and an error accounte< for two more runs for the visitors. Kern's double and Snipes' sacrifice anl Holland's single sent over the ticing rui for Carolina. In the tenth Kerns singled. Snipe again put down a neat but and Holland' drive to left sent Bob over with the win ning run.

The game was a long drawn-out affair lasting nearly two C I hours and a half. There was some bad C playing on both sides and several errors - that accounted for scores. However, the Birds swung some wicked willows, with the result that nearly all the Citadel in field got a chance to pitch. The Gamecocks scored two runs in their half of the first, and another in the third. However, the Bulldogs, after i having loaded the bases in the first in ning and then pulling a boner on a squeeze I play, getting the Birds out of a hole, i ran wild in the second inning and before the third man was out they had scored ; 5 runs. They added another in the ; fourth, giving them a three-run lead. But in their half of the fourth Carolina opened up and sent three runs across, making it six in all. Then in the sixth they jumped to a safe lead by making four tallies, and then added four more in the seventh for good measure.
