NUMBER 1 CAROLINA TEAlM Score 5-3 in Bird's Favor Pitching of "Wild Bill" Clark and Fielding of Kern Features Game Who said "Wild Bill" Clarke couldn't pitch any more? Well, if you had just seen the way he had those Columbia Comers guessing last week, you would have said he was just as good if not bet ter than he was 20 years ago. He had a change of pace and a hook that had the Comers baffled, so that they only man aged to get three runs across while the Gamecocks were scoring five. The hit ting and fielding of Bob Kern had a lot to do with winning that old game, too. "Bobby" was right on the job whenever called upon. The fielding fea ture for the Comers was a spectacular throw by McCue. There were a couple of casualties dur ing the game. Purdy happened to get his head in the way of a pitched ball, with the result that he had to stop playing, while Tutwiler was forced to retire with a bum finger. After Sanders and Purdy missed third strikes in the first inning, Kern singled to left and stole second. Snipes walked. Rhame singled to right scoring Kern, and when Middleton's peg got by Chis holm and Strickland, Snipes scored. Rhame was caught in a trap between third and second and run down. Brown singled to second to start the third and took second on Purdy's high throw. McCue flied to Kern. Brown went to third on a passed ball, and scored when Kern fumbled Sike's smash. Beckwith's single sent Sikes to third and he scored with "Beck" when Chishohr singled to center. 4 Strickland floiced Chisholm and Middleton lifted to Kern Clarke singled to start the third and Sanders beat a swinging bunt. Purd) was hit, filling the basses. Kern singled scoring Clarke. Snipes flied to Middle ton whose peg drove Sanders back tc third and Chisholm then caught Kerr at first. Rhame rolled to Allen, whc fumbled, Sanders scoring. Johnson fan ned. Clarke was hit to open the sevent and Dick sacrificed. Wallace flied tc Beckwith. Kern doubled to left, scor ing Clarke. Snipes missed the thirc strike. The Comers had a chance to tie ir the ninth, but a great peg by Dick stop ped the rally. McCue opened with a single to right and Sikes followed with a safe smash to left. McCue tried tc go to third and Dick tossed him out Beckwith flied to Rhame and Chisholi lifted to Snipes.

P Junior Class of Columbia College a Gives Entertaining Glee Club 0 Recital in University Chapel s( ai On Thursday evening, April 12th, the o Junior class of Columbia College gave C a glee club recital in the chapel.of the C University. The girls gave an evening fall of entertainment, and all those that E didn't attend missed a treat. The crowd ir wasn't any too large, which probably ex- h plains why "C. C." doesn't visit us often- rz er, and we'd surely like to see them fre- r( quently. - t The "show" was full of "features," in fact we might say it was all "feature." A number of amusing stunts and songs kept the audience in a mirthful frame of ti mind, while the dancing of the minuet ta added color to the occasion. Miss Nell N N\urray pleased everybody with her ren- ci (lition of several vocal solos. The sing- b ing of "Silver Threads Among the Gold," ti and "In the Gloaming" was enhanced by ir the dainty stage setting and the quaint colonial costumes of the singers. The N "Athletic Wedding" was original and i unique, as was the "Ford" stunt. Prob- w ably the biggest hit of the evening was C the quartet, composed of four charming N young ladies, who had to respond to en- C core after encore each time they ap- Fi peared. It can be well said that it was al an A-1 show and we hope "SceSee" N will put on another one some time, and N1 will bring it to Carolina for we're al- ti ways ready to welcome anything that has t< any connection with Columbia College. C< A short reception was held at the close b of the recital, which added pleasure to ( the evening. jIn spite of the annoying f, way in which sonme "smart aleck" mon keyed with the lights, everybody had a a goodl time and 10:15 came all too soon. ti w Hankins and Sparkman to Repre- ti sent U. S. C. in Forensic Con test with William and Mary v: College c ~~ C J. E. Hankins and Thorne Sparkman 0, were selected by the judges in the pre- at liminaries held last Wednesday night to represent the University of South Caro- L lina in the approaching debate with Wil liam and Miary College. Clarke Floyd was chosen as alternate. The debate is to be held in Columbia on April 2th, and the query is : "Resolved, w That President Harding was Justified in G, Vetoing the Bonus Bill." This is the thi first time that these two old institutions a: have met in a similar contest, and the at outcome of it is being awaited with in- E OCIOLOGY EXHIBIT A SUCCESS Known As Social S. C. VIEWED BY MANY ept. of Sociology Deserves Great Credit For Staging It The first sociological exhibit ever at mpted by the University of South arolina, or, in fact, any university or )llcge in America, was a success from rcry angle. From the time the doors I ere opened on Thursday morning until , icy closed Saturday evening their was throng of people examining and com- I enting on the various exhibits. Social South Carolina was the name the exhibit which portrayed the dif !rent lines of work of those highly )mmendable organizations laboring for 1 ic social uplift of South Carolina in a ( !ry interesting and educational man- t !r. The exhibit was designed for the irpose of showing the people of Colum a and the entire state what is done by s agencies of social betterment. In all there were thirty-five organiza ins that collected and arranged the ex- s bits in the University gymnasium, de cting their several fields of labor. I hese organizations co-operated in every I )ssible way with Dr. G. Croft William < i putting on the exhibit, and without I icir assistance it would not have been 1 >ssible to have had it. The most credit >le and noteworthy exhibits were those F the Columbia Hospital, State Board F Health, Public Health Nursing As )ciation, Associated Charities, Farm id Home Demonstration Departments F Clemson and Winthrop colleges, South arolina State Hospital and the South arolina Sanitarium. All of the students taking work in the epartment of Sociology played a very niportant part in helping make the ex bit a success, although they had to work tther hard at times, they were fully paid in the end by the appreciation of ic public for the exhibit.

HIGH SCHO GAMECOCKS BESTED IN THREE GAMES Lose by Small Margin of One Point To Newberry Indians Why in the thunder didn't it rain las rhursday when the score was 7 to 6 it ur favor against Newberry! Fate had lecreed it otherwise, though, and the ndians got two over in the eighth tha von the game for them. The game wa L veritable slugging match from first t< ast, Kearse and A. Shealy, the opening )itchers, being driven to cover in th< arly innings. Newberry scored thre( in the first and Carolina counted twice ach scored one in the second, and New >erry added another in the third; th< .amecocks made it five-all by scoring wo in their half of the third, and then ,ot a one-run lead in the fourth, which qewberry evened up again in the fifth n the seventh the Birds put another on cross, but the Indians got two in th ighth, which ended the game as far as coring was concerned. The hitting of A. Shealy for New erry, and the fielding of Dick for Caro ina were the features of the game. An >ther ieature was the fact that "Daddy' lolland resigned his position behind the >at and pitched almost the whole game Gwilliam opened with a hit and Robin on sacrificed. Shealy singled to third rhe other Shealy crashed a triple t< eft. Crooks was safe on Rhame's error )errick singled but Dick made goo< :atches of drives from Wollett an< ;toudemire. Wallace also opened with a single an< )ick walked. Kern sacrificed. Snipe: valked. Holland's hit scored Wallac nd Dick came home on Rhame's sacrific( ly. Gwilliam was safe on a bunt in th econd and stole. He advanced on v it and scored on a sacrifice fly. Johnson doubled in the secotid, ad ,anced on an out and scored on a sac 'ifice fly. Crooks tripled in the third and stok kome. Kern, Snipes, Holland and Rhan ingled in succession in the third, scoring wo runs.

Bil tole and rode home in Rhame's single Wollett walked in the eighth and too econd on Johnson's error. Soudemir< valked. Rutledge sacrificed. Gwilliar ingled, but for some reason Vollett hek hird. The batter, expecting the runnei n second to be on his way to third, rar i to second and as StouIemire was oming back from third about that time, hey met on the base. Stoudemire was aIled out when they were both tagged, Ithough Gwilliam wvas the proper victim, 1owvever, Robinson singled and the win ing run scored.
