BIBLE DISCUSSION
GROUPS START TONIGHT
d Friday night at 7:00 o'clock the Bible
4 Discussion Groups will organize on the
campus. There will be a leader and a
group in each tenement. The groups
will meet every Friday night until
Christmas. This year, the B. 1). G.s
will be conducted in practically the same
mamnner that they have for several years.
points will be given for attendance and
for new members; every student who
attends every meeting and all members
of the winning class-that is, the class
with the greatest number of points at
the end of the season-will be eligible
for a "feed" of some sort. 'The hour
of meeting will be seven o'clock so as not
to conflict with the Clariosophic Liter
ary Society meetings.
This year we arc going to study a
phamplet on campus problems. There
are many problems here that only the
students themselves can solve; it is the
purpose of the groups to bring the boys
closer together and get them to (1o some
real thinking on certain conditions on
our campus. Church services and Bible
classes and young people's societies cani
not always touch the right spots. Iii
B. D. G.s the students feel free to ex
press their opinions and to enter hear
tily in the discussion. This is what is
wanted.
J,ast year there were (ily jive men ol
the campus who did not attend a grour
meeting at some time or other. Thi

classes has beenl exceptionally good antd

them lined ill) to go to the best schoo
in the state. The success of the fresh

in no small measure to their energ)
during the warmish days of July and
August.
Mainy stra.nge tales are told of Bob's
adventures during the summer, bul
they are hardly to be mentioned in the
same breath with some that are credited
to Bill in the course of his travels. Se
lected from a large group of choice
specimens there is one that stands out
rather sharply.

ADVERTISING CAROLINA .
DURING SUMMER
Thre are matny wvays to spread the
news abiout the greatauiess of the Univer..
.. sity' of Soiuthi Carolina btit the most
ing the summ rneonths by several of
our athletes working in a punup foundry
at Ashland, 0. These boys seemed to
have created quite a stir when a certain
show camte to town. The story is told
very interestingly in the Ashland Tines
Gazette and is as follows:
"What's the use of goitig to Shelby,
Mont., to see a light as long as Bart I
Siediker's big athletic stadium is in
town? 'Tle big attraction at the Wal
lace shows this week has been Bart's
show, where many good boxing and
wrestling exhibitions have been put on '
with great success to the delight of
many local sportsmen.
"Like a volcano in eruption last night
the stadium became jammed and burst
forth with whoops and yells from the
local boys when Bart's giants were over
powered by two power pump handles
from the Myers plant. True to Myers
policy the "Pump Handles" were the
best and overpowered their opponents
as ten ton steam rollers would crush
pebbles in the sand.
"Coach Red Jenings, supervisor of
wrestling at the University of South
Carolina, was the cause of it all. He I
took five members of his team to the
carnival and after showing the boys
how to do it, they downed Bart's men
without hesitation in the best wrestling
matches that have been witnessed in
the city for several years.
"Coach jeinigs told the carnival
men lie k,ntew a little something about
the game and Wouldn't mind wrestling.
"Feeling quite confident, Ross Hut- I
cheson, a nu1te, from Andersonville,
Tenln., who has been with the carnival,
went into the ring with Red and at the
end of 16 1-2 iniutes Red had Ross
helpless on his back with a body scis
sors and armlock. Red stated this
morning that lie had a big notion to
start a show of his own.
"Bull Kirven, another member of the
university's wrestling team, downed
Jack Phillips, of Cincinatti, with a toe
hold in only six and one half minutes.
"'ile five members of the wrestling
team of the University of South Caro
Iina, who have been working in this
city, are N. Theodore, Buddy McKee,
and Red Jennings, of Columbia; Bull
Kirven of Sumter and John Mont
gomery of lartsville, S. C. 'Tile boys
have been making things interesting
this week at the carnival and Bart Sne
dicker, manager of the show, stated this
noon that he had never struck a city
where there were so many good wrest
lers.
"Following a tenl round bout this
evening between 1I(lianl Joe, of the
Nlyers plant and Jack Phillips, of
Cincinatti, Hutcheson and Buddy Mc
Kee will wrestle to a finish."
That must have been great stuff. We
wish that the same carnival would conic
to Columbia so that the boys could
show us how they did it.
We have learnt from the boys who
have returned that Buddy won.
