The Freshmen, ow ing perhaps to the near proximity of Columbia and Chicora Colleges, and moved by the first promptings of that passion which stirs to ecstacy this mor tal frame, devote at least half of their spare time to study. It goes without saying that the post graduates, childrein of a larger growth, are consumed with "the quiet (ligility of a life ce.nsecrated to knowledge."

Let us hark back to South Carolina 0llege, in the year of our Salvation, 1824. That brilliant old( materialist, At)rmny petrel, Thomas Cooper, was j)resiCent and there had been constallt turmoil (luring 1823. Old Professor "Max" 1,all(irde, the first Listorian of the college. regret fully records: "Upon the whole the year was an unhappy coe for the college. Nothing was added to its reputation. but ii lost no smal I portion of the public coidence." The venerable chronicler begins the next paragraph in no such dolorous terms. Hear him: "All hail to the Year 1824! It was a year of quiet. Judging by the minutes of the Faculty (and I have no other means of judging) it had no very de ci(e(l character.*** There are no stir iig incidevts, nto riot. 11o combination, no flagrant violation of law, except in a single instance. One or two students only are suspended, andI one expelled. It is a smooth sea without gale enough to disturb the surface. Prayers and recitaticeis, and recitations and prayers. anId the weekly examination of the mon itors' bills-these make ip pretty much the year's history. Nor is this to be complained of, if the duties are well discharged. There it no report for tile year of the state of the college, either from the President or the Faculty; cer tainly the records of the Board give Ilot the slightest mention of it." The gentle LaBorde then calls at tention to what he calls "a singular pen alty by the Faculty,", and thus describes the pecadillo and the punishment. "Two students were discovered shooting guns at the back of the town and were called up, seriously admon ished, and required each to get fifty lines of Virgil's Aeneid by heart, and, to repeat then to the I-aculty at their next meeting." It is safe to say that no students in 1924 would shoot "at the back of the town!" If they did, they surely would not have to memorize and repeat fiftyi lines of Virgil, for not more than, twenty of the present professors could uderstnl th-M. and tile other pro ft.ss,-s, ("hli barbarbaoi") wolid simply "Quadfrupedlantc putr'em sonitti qua tct (Ju nla caliptui(."

"Bill" Rogers is captain of the Bid (lies. The first string team consist of the following: Schumpert and Mikell, forwards; Wise, center; Rogers and Seidemann, giards; with Russamaino and Ingram seeing service often. Most of the games in which these men have engaged they have won by doubling the score. Their passing and team work has been almost perfect. They never let up until the game has been safely tucked away, .id only then to let some of the other men get a showing. Un der the ,guidance of Coach Crawford many of these are going to make the Varsity next year, or give some of the older men a run for their places. Noth ing will be cinched on the basketball teamu during the season 1925. Carolina Fresh 36, Columbia Hi 13. The score shows quite a margin in fav or of the Chicks, but the story does not show the splendid defense put up by the future collegians. One interesting thing that escaped the notice of many was that until 80 seconds before the end of the half that not a Carolina for ward] caged a field goal, rather remark able for the Hi forwards to pull such a feat with the Biddies, eh ? Columbia high jumped into the lead immediately after the whistle on a foul shot, but almost as soon as this was done Carolina tied the score and then went into the lead which was never re linquished, though at times the schol astics had the collegians a little wor ried. Only one man who started on the Carolina team-Seidemann-had never worn the Columbia Hi uniform, the oth ers were the mainstays of last year's Red Cyclone. The defensive work of the Hi was very good-especially ini the first half they were battling against larger, stronger and more experienced foes and truly showed the championship mater ial of which they were made.
