GRID REVIEW.j
By JAY Em Ba
The statement made in this "colyan"
last week that It was too early to predict
who's who -in South Carolina football
circles was confirmed by some of the
scores of the games played last week
end. For instance some of the wise ones
were about ready to predict that our own
Gamecocks were about out of it because
the Birds took the short end of a 26 to
0 score at the hands of the Maryland
Old Liners the week previous. As the
wires shot in the 13 to 12 victory of
Carolina over the ' Virginia Cavaliers
these "experts" took another thought.
The week's games brought some up
sets for South Carolina teams as well
as for the elevens beyond the Palmetto
state boundary line.
Interest is running high now. This
week's games presents something for the
lans to think about. Starting right here

orth Carolina meet on Melton field and

Ig Therefore it appears that both of the
Carolinas are to be "duly and carefully
considered." Barring a deadlock, Car44
lina is bound to win, but which Carolina
That is the question that has the fans
guessing, As for Jay Em Bee, his heart
is with South Carolina and he believes
that the Garnet and Black has a good
chance to win, but he is not making any
rash predictions.
The Birds won glory and praise for
their splendid comeback on Lambeth
field at Charlottesville last Saturday. It
appears to have been a Carolina victory
and not a triumph for any one or two
men. Because of that conquest, the
Roosters seemed to be in a battling mood
and the Tarheel brethren will have no
bed of roses to travel Saturday, the
triumph of the Chanel Hill collegians
over the Old Liners to the coniiary not
withstand.
Furman still looms ace high because
of the Purple Hurricane's 27 to 13 win
over Mercer last week. This week-end
the South Carolina Baptists meet Geor
gia. The Southern Bulldogs beat Yale
14 to 10 last Saturday but that doesn't
mean that Furman is beaten before it
tackles Georgia.
The Citadel plays its first home game
this Saturday with the Oglethorpe Pet
rels. . The'Bulldogs have been unable to
win a decision yet, but they are expected
to make plenty of trouble for their fu
ture foes.
Clemson's 18 to 6 defeat at the hands
of the North Carolina State Wolfpack
does not sound so well, but the Raleigh
aggregation appears to have been a
whole lot better than the team which
met Furman the week before. This week
Clemson meets Erskine at Clemson, the
game being scheduled for Friday. This
should be a merry struggle, too.
Erskaine was one of the four South
Carolina teams which defeated out of
state elevens last week, the Seceders

BIBLE CLASSES

Pamphlets Listing Subjects to Be
Discussed Distributed at
First Meeting
ARE TWENTY -SIX CLASSES
"Where Do We Need.New Stand
ards?" Is First Question
Discussed
Beginning with a discussion on the
question "Where do we need new stand
ards?" the tenement Bible classes got
under way last Tuesday night. These
classes are conducted each year under
the direction and supervision of the
Y.M.C.A.
According to reports turned in, 26
classes have been organized and the at
tendance at the first meeting was ap
proximately 340. These figures com
pare favorably with those of the initial
meeting held last year. A. R.. Godshall,
head of the Bible class committee, states
that he hopes to make the classes a
greater success than they have ever been
before.
Three or four tenements still remain
to be organized. Leaders for these tene
ments have been chosen and a sgecial
effort will be made to have them organ
ize on the next meeting night..
Small pamphlets containing a list of
the subjects to be discussed and some
information concerning each were dis
tributed to those present at the first
meeting. The subjects are interesting
and in the main -have to do with definite
student problems.
The series of classes will last for nine
weeks instead of ten. as in previous
years. No meeting will be held next
Tuesday night, but after the fair a meet
ing will be held each week until the
series has been finished.
Just as in previous years a big ban
quet is being planned for those who have
perfect attendance records. In the past
a large number have qualified for this
banquet. It is always a very pleasant
event.

S. C.
A new idea for Carolina will be trie:
tomorrow at the North Carolina game
when concerted cheering by students
wearing sitniliar uniforms will be tried
out in an effort to increase the pep of
the student body. This special cheering
section will occupy the ccenter of the
Carolina cheering section. Three hun
dred and twenty of the students will
wear a white uniform consisting of
white duck trousers and white shirt.
Sixty of the students will wear blue
uniforms, consisting of blue serge suits.
The students wearing the blue uniforms
will be seated among those wearing
the white uniforms so that the effect
from the field and other side will be
that of blue "S. C." in block letters o.i
a white background.
Each student who has signed up to
wear the blue uniform is urged to be in
his assigned place at two o'clock sharp,
and all of those who have agreed to
wear white uniforms are requested to
be in their places not later than three
o'ilock.
This uniform block letter cheering
section is a unique idea for this section
of the country. The present plan is an
adoption by Thomas Wofford of sinmil

Craig's Talk Feature
of Society Meeting
Pugh and Brown Win in Debate
Over Atkinun and
Walker
An oration on "The Socialization of
Modern Life," by Thomas Moore Craig,
was the high light in the program of the
Futhradian literary society, which was
carried out at its regular meeting last
Tuesday night. Craig pointed out the
-:hurch as an example of an institution
which has gone far outside the narrow
bounds intended for it by its founders.
Griffith Pugh and E. Brown, repre
senting the affirmative, won the decisions
of both the judges and the house over
R. H. Atkinson and Henry Walker of
the negative, debating the question, "Re
solved: That legislation shouid be enact
ed to regulate stunt and distance fliglts."
'7lhe gentlemen of the negative gave im
promptit debates which proved to be
more amusing than i0fckrmative, and
kept their audience laughing. Mr. At
kinson pointed out that unregulated
flights must be made in order that future
flyers may know the problems to be met,
adding, "If someone had not risked being
poisoned and tasted the first watermelon
we might not be eating watermelons to
day."
W. B. Moore, the extemporaneous
speaker for the evening spoke on "The
Social Function of the Literary So
ciety."
During the election of new members
the recently inaugurated black ball sys
tem was used for the first time.
