The manage nient was unable to distribute the uni forms usually worn as it was not known how many would be needed. There are many new men this year who show much promise and are pre pared to fill up the gaps and streng then the weak-spots caused by gradua tion. Director Olson is well pleased with the prospects and promises the University a band of more than usual merit. The band has secured the contract to furnish the music for the state fair this year. Leslie Edwards, manager, has arranged for the band to accom pany the football team to Orangeburg and Greenville when the Gamecocks meet the Citadel and Furman at those places. Last year the band played for the Orangeburg county fair and was in vited back this year, declining how ever, in favor of the state fair engage ment. The manager is also making ar rangements for a tour of the state next spring, giving concerts, much as the Glee club does. From time to time concerts will be given on the campus, consisting of a new assortment of popular and classi cal music. The new men are: Carter, Paul Lu po, E. 0. Black, Young, Ray, Edwards, Bowen, McNalan and Monteith. ZIBY B3RIGS wHo.ex ouI *7L OPPORTUNITY TO THe swner YOUNc To srT OUT IN 'THE SLe (oR PERGOW AND .
