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?

Biddies March
On to Victory
In Two Games
FURMAN BLOCKS TITLE
Wofford Defeated 22 to 0 And
BuHlpups Handed 9 to 0
Setback
Two clearcut victories by the Caro
lina Biddies recently places them in
the same position as the varsity, to
play Furman soon for the champion
ship of the state. 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

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. Willard,
sires and Duvall were good for Cit..
