Fourteen blows did the Birds garned off Minnick and Jones, two of them being for three bases, but only five runs were accrued while the Laval men bunched their ten safeties for a total of eight runs. Scott hurled a good game for the BBirds, but he was wild at times and the Purple players took advantage of his wildness to mark up tallys. On the other hand Minnick and Jones were nicked plentifully, but as has been said before, the Carolina hits were kept scattered. Red Adams. Gamecock centerfielder. led in the hitting with a triple and three singles out of five trips to the plate. Burke and Farr secured two bingles out of four trips for the Birds. Also. \finnick. who went to the out field after being relieved by Jones in the box, got two hits. Hipps, the flashy first sacker who is slated to go to Connie Mack in June. poled out for the circit with the bases drunk. A huge crowd was on hand for the game and the occassion was made ier ry by a hand fronm Clemson College. which rendered numerous selections from time to time. -USC Stdents and Police Fought in Old Days Three Weeks Suspension of All Classes From Clash Between College Men and Officers Following is an extract from the Sunday Record's article upon the old "Daily Carolina Times.'

The exercises of the South Carolina College (now the Uni versity" of South Carolina) will be re sumed on 'edlnesd:ay- after a suspen siun of three weeks which was iad': necessary by the excited state of feel ing atong the students consequent. in part of the late unfortunate and much to be regretted disturbances of the fricndly relations heretofore, sub sistinig between them and our city authIorities. The rinnputs has, w~e trust, suplerindultcedl reflection and the 'sober secondl thought' of the young gentle men of the college and has alloyed the high excitement which lately swayedl their feelings, and warped, as we think, their judgements."
