I ANY SPEAKERS AT 'Y' BANQUET 3 WEDNESDA Y EVE .arge Attendance of Freshmen 3 at Annual Affair in the Gymnasium ESCAPE MESS HALL MENU ts, Speeches, and Co-eds Ab sorb Attention of Those Who Are Eager "I am glad that I am here; I am glad that you are here; I am glad that we are all here," said acting-Dean Bradley, in his greetings to those pres ent at the annual Y.MJC.A. freshman banquet held at the gym Wednesday night. And from the looks of the eaters, they were all glad that they were there. A large crowd was out to take ad vantage of the free "Y" banquet, and take part in the evening prgram, for all present participated. The menu was good, as usual, the program excellent, the waitresses pretty, and the affair a success. The invocation was rendered by Prof. Stoddard, chairman of the board of directors of the Y.M.C.A. Then all fell to work with the board, and much satisfaction was evident as the ban queteers seemed to appreciate the de parture from the mess hall menu. Actin-Dean Bradley, In his greetings gave some good advice for freshmen to follow. He attacked the old South Ca rolina expression that "Somebody was goin to do something sometimes." The student, he said, had the opportunity to "be that someone and do that something now." He urged the stu dent to be that one and not wait for the other fellow. He related an inci dent from the life of Captain Ambrose Gonzales, which showed how that celebrity became such a worker. Mr. Bradley closed with this verse. "Whatsoever thy hands finds to do; Do with all thy might." Coach Stoney, head of freshmen athletics, spoke on college athletics in reTation to college spirit and sports manship. In praising good sportsman ship, he lamentd the fact that there was not more of that article spread about the world. The freshmen, he begged to decide now what each could do for Carolina to make it a better in stitution with high ideals of sportsman ship. Attacking his critics, Mr. Stoney ex plained the position of a freshman coach, and the obstacles which he must overFome. He called upon, the students to get behind the team and help it win. The freshman year is the best year of a college students career, and habits formed as a freshman usually were the formative influences of a man's life. In closing, he compared athletics to the game of life and told of the similar sacrifices that must be made in each for ultimate success. Next oni the program was the sing ing of two ditties, led by Mr Maurice Matteson, director of music, and in which all joined. This was followed by the singing of the Alma Mater, "We Hail Thee, Carolina." Jimmy Baldwin lead a series of cheers which nearly raised the roof. He announced that all freshmen would gather before the chapel a half hour before the game to morrow and march to the field where~ a spedial section would be reserved for them. Mr. R. G. Bell, secretary of the "Y", after telling his annual joke, gave what he called "Exhibit A" in which he in troduced those who strongly supported the association. Some of them were Messrs. Bradley, Stoddard, Crow, Boyd, KCafer, Burke, and members of the "Y" promotion force. In the second part of his speech Mr. Bell declared that three things determined a man's lif6: His attitude and relationship to God, to the other fellow, and to his life work. He then advised the freshmen that all members of the faculty were willing to aid the student determine these thirngs. Mr. Kafer, of thec "Y' p-omotion force, gave a short talk on the work of that force. He was followed by Dr. Schayer, professor of Hygiene, in his annual talk in which he gave sound, hman Camp BIBLE CLASSES TO BEGIN WORK TUESDA Y NITE SAME RULES TO PREVAIL New Policy Will Be Followed in Choosing Subjects for Discussion * B. D. G.'s or in othe- words the Bible Discussion group will start Tues day night, according to the announce ment from Remsen Bauknight, the chairman of the committee. As ii-.tel there will be a class in every tenement on the campus. Teach ers are in process of being selected now and volunteers will be receved with gladness both at Mr. Bauknight's room, or at the Y office in Flinn Hall. Last year there were nearly 600 mcn enrolled in the classes and about 300 with perfect attendance. The Y of fice is planning for a record breaker this year. As usual the classes will end with a reception or a feed to the members of the winning class, and to all the men who have not missed a class in the series. The first class will not count on the record, but will be for the purpose of enrolling, selecting subjects for discussion and electing officers for the class. There will be 10 class periods running up to Christ mas. The Y is following a new policy this year. A list of subjects for discussion will be given out at the first meeting. Each man is to check 10 subjects that he would like to have discussed in the classes, and the course will be coin piled from this. Some of the subjects will be as follov,s: Where do we need new standards. How honest shall we be. Where shall we stand on relationships between Men and Women. How nearly perfect can we bc. Are we living by the footnotes. How is a Christian student different. How can one be sure of Jesus. What are we in college for. Does the campus give a fair chance for all. I's campus popularity worth seeking. How shall we choose our life work. How cae we test the truth of Religi ous Faith. What is prayer. These subjects are among the large number that will be presented in the list. The rules will be the same as last year. Among the rules are the fol lowing. No man shall be a member of a class not in his tenement unless he is living off the campus. No man shall be a visitor of one class who is a member of another. All new members shall count five points additional. Each visitor shall count one point. All men who have had perfect at tendance (10 mieetings) will be invited to the feed. No excuses for absences except sick ness in infirmary, or absence w'th football squad as member of squad. T1he University has had the largest classes in the south, and these classes have been one of the most attractive features of the University life. The Bible class committee will probably coordinate the subjects with the sub jecf'! to be uised at the regular Sun day night meetings, as last year.

On the Fre4 PROF. BRADLEY WILL SPEAK AT NEXT 'Y' MEET CHICORA GIRLS TO SING Large Number Hear Dr. Ward law Speak at First "Y" Service Prof. Francis W. Bradley, acting dean of the University, will be the speaker at the regular Sunday night meeting of the' Y.M.C.A. in chapel at 7:15 Sunday night. The Chicora College quartette will furnish the music for the occasion and this added attraction will no doubt re sult in a large attendance. A large number of students were present at the first meeting to hear Dr. Patterson Wardlaw speak on "The Present Perplexities," an address in which he stated the ideal attitude of the student toward the religious con troversy now going on between the modern and fundamental schools of thought. Dr. Wardlaw declared, among other principles, that facts should be faced unflinchingly, and that one should never base his religious attitude upon his theories. This address was given by Dr. Ward law last spring, and met with such ac claim that he was asked to speak upon the same subject again. At the beginning of the meeting a xylophone solo was given by Carroll Abrams. - U.S.C. -- Flinn Hall Renairs Are Now Complete Ping-Podtg Stadium Remodeled -New Plaster and Paint Applied It is now in order to announce the completion of the Y building remodel ing drive.
