Drop in Chapel Seats Reported By Stock Market Experts (By 'Is 'Ighness) While recently engaged attentively lis tening to the superfluous overflow of verbosity emptying from the learned brain of one of our recent eloquent chap el speakers. I was "startled out of my wits," so to speak. The air became blue with bolts and nuts and crashing sounds, echoed and re-echoed in the halls of the old building. I was in a critical con dition. In fact I had no visible means of support. My chapel seat had "busted." The authorities here should be more considerate and foresighted. They should think of the responsibility they undertake in assigning chapel seats. Pupils may be heartlessly crushed beneath the sudden collapse of a number of chapel seats. Limbs, bodies, teetn, eyes, and even the beautiful faces of some of our co-eds might be bruised, broken, lacerated, or, even marred for life. Think of it, gen tlemen I It was not only my intention in writ ing this article to "roust" the authorities, but also to name a remedy for this dan ger. So in closing I will make a sugges tion that I hope will be carried out in future chapel assemblies. Why not let the student body sit on the lawn and let the chapel speaker mount Maxcy monu ment? Dean Dillard Attends Meet In Rock Hill (Continued from Page One) Headquarters, will deliver an address which will be followed by a reception at the home of Mrs. Allen Graham. Saturday morning there will be a busi ness meeting and a luncheon at the Poin sett Hotel. Mrs. William Burnett of Greenville is president of the South Carolina division and Miss Amelia Tompkins of Columbia, vice-president. Miss Aileen Shane and Mrs. Heintish are the other delegates from the Columbia branch but there will probably be several others to go. The convention will close with the Furman-Carolina football game Saturday afternoon, to which the delegates are officially invited. - U.s.c. - N.

Both wins were clean shutouts, one over the Wofford Pups, 22 to 0 and one over the Citadel Pups, 9 to 0. Both fresh elevens boast excellent teams and it is con sidered a feat to keep either from scoring. Furman now stands super ior to the Biddies by scoring more heavily against Citadel, but the juv enile Birds declare that Furman against Citadel and against Carolina are two different things as far as they are concerned. Chicks Score Safety Against the Wofford rats a fierce drive was shown by thefreshman back field. In the last two qarters a total of sixteen points were made. The Chicks were the first to score on Bar ney Early's Methodist team this sea son, making their first six points ear ly in the game. Then the scoring sub sided and no more points were made until the third period. The Woff6rd rats fought with might and main and played a good defensive game. In the second half a Wofford punt was blocked and rolled behind the, goal line. Fleming, who kicked it, turned and outra,* a number of Biddies to it, falling on it and scoring the first safety to be seen this year on the University field. From then on, the young Birds smashed and walloped their opponents as they pleased. The overpowering Carolina freshman ma chine was operating effectively and nothing could stand in its way. T ie Biddies were superior, stronger and abler, and a team with more experi ence. Rogers was the shining star of the cohfiict. His smashing tackles were in evidence and he kept his head up always. Tolbert and Windus, ends, were good and the tackling of Harry Wolfe stood out. Joyner at quarter back distinguished himself when he sped through the Wofford team for the first touchdown of the afternoon, as did Magill, a plunging back and a hard hitter and Cooper who made frequent returns for 15 yards. Guarino continued to add to the name he is making for himself as a guard and / I , THAT STYL BREA $35.00-$37.50 Marshall - Corner Main and H.am...n eS. Mr. Fly Killed When He Slips on Ivory-Domed Surface Yes, another, one of those pests sent against Pharoh for his cruelty to the Is. realite is deadl 'Twas certainly a sad occasion when poor Mr. Fly came to his death in such a tragic way yet it was just his lot. The men and co-eds who do not at tend these Sunday night meetings of the "Y" not only miss wonderful teachings of morality and religion but quite fre quently they miss also perfectly good humorous incidents. Only several nights ago those present could have hardly es caped noticing that bothersome fly which continually sailed around the speaker's head. Mr. fly insisted upon lighting somewhere but the speaker kept knock ing or blowing him away every time he made an attempt. Yes, to make a long story short, he did finally alight. And that's just the sad part of the story. It was indeed mis fortunate but he alit on the top of a bald head and without doubt you know the results. He could not skate very well so he slid off and broke his neck I Griffin drew applause from the standi making 42 yards from scrimmage in four straight runs. Bullpups Quieted Magill exhibited a starry brand of football to beat the Citadel rats in Charleston by a score of 9 to 0. Caro lina was admittedly the better team and it proved it rather a surprise to the Bullpups that their team could hold the Garnet and Black to so close a score. In the third quarter Magill inter cepted one of George Week's passes on his 50 yard line and was not down ed until he had reached the five yard mark. The Citadel line proving in vulnerable for three thrusts, Stewart booted the porcine epidermis through the bars for the first points of the game. Magill made the touchdown of the game singlehanded from the 30 yard line. He drove over center and kept driving right on through the midst of the bewildered Citadel rats. Several tackled him but were unable to hold him. Citadel Threatens Citadel came near to scoring a min ute before the game ended. Weeks passed to Willard outside of the end zone from the five yard line the pass missed being inside legal territory by only a few feet. Beside the excellent playing of Ma gill the playing of the Chicks that stood out was of Captain Fulmer at center and Guarino at guard and al so Stackhouse at quarter.
