CO-ED ATHLETICS PROVE POPULAR AT UNIVERSITT IRECTOR KEPT VERY BUSY ockey and Tennis Rivalled in Popularity Only By "Heavy weight." Seeking to Reduce Coach Bocock's football team is in ave danger. There must be some hing done about it immediately. The ch has done all in his power to old them together but every after oon as soon as the girls come onto he field carrying hockey sticks the hole squad forgets the football and ushes madly to the girls using all heir artful persuasions to win from hem their instruments of play and be n knocking the-ball gleefully around he field4 absolutely ignorant of other eople's heads or the coach's remon trances to come back to the football rectice. It is indeed hard to understand their nfatuation for the game because hock y is really not a man's game but it is till harder to fathom the reason why hose girls who gave tearful excuses or physical education at first are now he first to come out to the field and he last to turn the sticks in when the histle blows. There is surely some eat fascination in the game-anyway uppose we all try it out. At least here is an opportunity for you to ccidentally get even with all those yca ave been "owing one" for a long time y hitting him in the head with the ockey stick! quite unintentionally. It s worth trying. Scheduling Difficult The director of the Department of hysical Education for Women has ad a terrible time getting the three undred women and more scheduled or physical education and planning the ight kind of work for every group ut the girls are beginning to see light nd realize what it is all about. They re gradually coming to the conclu ion that it is better to begin with the thers, rather than come in later and e dumbells of the class. There 'are nly half a dozen girls in the Univer ity who have played hockey before, o every one is on practically the same evel and has to be taught from the round up, so to speak. Only two other olleges play hockey, but it is fast win iing popularity among the leading portswomen and physical education lirectors. When everyone is familiar with the ame, class teams will be formed for ach class and Carolina will witness ier first hockey tournament about he first of December. Enthusiastic Gallery Because of the lack of a woman's ath etic field the freshman football field sbeing used this season and it is oped that a large athletic field for 1omen will be ready for the first prac ices next fall. The immense popularity of the sport Sproved by the fact that even the arny morning classes are honored with n audience. The windows in Ward tw, Woodrow and Burney Colleges re filled every morning with admirers ithe fair players. Possibly therein es the reason for the impatience with thich the girls rush to the early class sIt is presumed that before long he crack of the hockey stick and a irl's shrill scream will be the sginal or many an honest lad to rouse from lis slumbers and apply himself to the asks of the day. Several girls are practicing tennis his fall to get themselves in line for hpossible tournament next spring. o0 definite plans have been made yet uit is hoped that there will be a irl's tenniis tournament similar to the ne held by the boys next year. Miss Itnith will be glad to coach tennis or the girls at any time when she is ebusy. The courts in front of the oman's College are for their use and he girls are urged to begin now to take themselves fit for work next pring. Woaikout Replace.

During this month four 'arades have occurred with the one following Caro lina's victory over Clemson predomin ating. And the shirt-tail parade following the fair classic was truly a "reel" one. Long and short shirt-tails, pajamas and nighties were all in view as the Carolina boys bustled down Columbia's "main dragf' singing loudly "We rode old Clemson on the rail." From the State House to one end of Main street and back was the course of the students. After the shirt-tail procession had taken in the "Main drag", stopped traf fic, the boys came back to the State House and pronounced the "last sad rites" over the Tiger.
