Honor Fraternity Makes First
Attempt At Publication of
This Kind on Campus
The University of South Carolina
chapter of Blue Key fraternity is
publishing a complete University dir
ectory, giving the name, home and
campus address, class and college and
possibly the fraternity of each member
of the student-body and the faculty.
In case of faculty members, their hours,
department, campus and home address
will be given. The fraternity plans to
edit an4 finance the directory and dis
tribute copies with their compliments
to all students ahd members of the
faculty and also place a copy in all
public places about the campus and
city.
The University of South Carolina
has long since needed something of
this kind so as to enable people com
ing on the campus. And members of
the student body and faculty to locate
immediately any student or member of
the faculty without having to make
numerous inquiries and then perhaps
not find the party in question.
Harry L. Hingson, editor of the di
rectory, hopes to have the copies ready
for distribution on or before Saturday,
October 12th. Many of the students
failed to turn in any address to the
registrar and some turned in an ad
dress and later changed it. All stu
dents who fall in this catagory' are
urged to write their correct name, ad
dress, phone number and fraternity
and turn them in to Mrs. Moon at the
University postoffice, addressed to Ed
itor Student Directory or Box 283.
Mr. Chase, the registrar, is very
much in favor of the idea nd ias co
operating as much as possible to see
that the correct data is assimulated for
the publication.
Blue Key fraternity, the donors of
the directory, is a national honor,
leadership fraternity whose purpose is
that of SERVICE to the University.

Parade
In due justice to the "happy warriors"
the student body led by Cheer leader
Brock, met the football team at the Sea
board and escorted them up town as far
as the traffic lights at the corner of
Gervais and Main.
The majority of the student body
came a la foot but many cars of legit
imate and doubtful make joined the
happy procession. Little cars, big cars,
Fords, Cadillacs, Packards, or what have
you considerably weakened their batteries
by their insistent and vehement horn
blowing. One Ford of more doubtful
origin than any of the others wiggled
its way into the center of the mob and
contiinally embarrassed a few of its
betemoth compapipns. by "sionally
side swiping and none too gently bump
ing them. This gaily devorated automo
ebi-le was obviously a holdover from
some ones Citadel days as it had been
originally painted in blue and white
with "Citadel" in large letters written
on its scaly sides. An extra driving
wheel was ingeniously attached to the
rear of the peculiar contraption, seem
ingly for the, use of back seat drivers
Some ambitious Carolina student had
taken a can of black paint and had given
the Ford a generots daubing with "U.
S. C." and Chicago 0, Carolina 6, much
to the chagrin of the owner.
The fire department' generously ad
ded the excitement and merriment of
the occasion by driving down the main
drag in their largest truck with the
sign attached reading, "Here They
Are" and "Welcome Home," they also
furnished several sirens which were
placed in the windows of the Colum

continual howl for recognition wh ih

Gamecocks Take Greatest Vic
Tory in History of Institu
tion Upon Stagg Field
in Face of Strong
Opposition
ZOBEL STARS THROUGHOUT
Only Thirteen Men Used In In
tire Game-Very Few
Injuries
The University of South Caroina's
psychological Gamecocks started a crow
that was heard all over the United States
of America when it stiffened its spurs
and spread its feathers on Stagg Field
in Chicago and defeated the Big Ten
Conference eleven in every phase of the
known football game, as well as intro
ducing some new clements never seen
before. The game was witnessed by a
crowd of 35,000 fans, who had come to
tolerate a small southern team giving
the mighty Chicagoans a practice game,
but found themselves first astonished
and doubtful, then gradually began be
lieving and rooting for the smart, flashy
Gamecock team, as they outplayed and
out-generaled the University of Chicago
the entire four quarters, with a final
score of 6-0 in Carolina's favor.
The Gamecocks won this game by the
brilliant playing of every man on the
team and by an invincible spirit that
would not give an inch of ground with
out the most stubborn resistance. There
was no such thing as luck or getting the
breaks, it was a case of the best team
winning, anc( Carolina deserved to win,
as she was always on the alert, taking
advantage oil every situation.
Billy Laval had his men in tiptop phy
sical condition) as he used only thirteen
men in the game. All doubt and specu
lation as to whether he could teach his:
team the entirely new Laval system of
playing was removed when they demon
strated as smooth a working combina
tion as was ever seen on Stagg field.
Zobel with many long, accurate punts,
was the most important cog in the Car
olina machine. His punts kept the ball
deep in Chicago territory. Time after
time he punted 50 and 60 yards, many
of them going across the goal line or
rolling dead on the 10 or 15 yard line.
Zobet also made some nice gains while
carrying the ball and made Carolina's
only tally on a speotactllar end run.
Carlisle Beall bucked and slashed' his
way through and around the Chicago
team for substantial gains, one of which
paved the way for the touchdown, when
he made six yards over right tackle on
the play before Zobel carried the ball
the remaining distance and scored. Beall
was ever watchful on the defense and
several times broke up what looked to
be good runs and passes.- -
In the line Juliani Beall was the iron
nman. Chicago recognized him as such
when they p)rojectedl play after play over
himt with no gain. Coach Stagg ran in
four centers against Beall bet none could
handle him.
Another linesman showing exceptional
playing was Harry Wolfe. There is
some dloub)t as to his particular position
in the line as his tackles were from end
to end( as well as getting the man wvhen
going dlown ont punts.
Wimiberly did not carry the hall as
much as usual, as L.aval was using him
to run interferance, but the few times
he got his hands on it, lie did not stand
still. C'aptaint Cooper ran the team in
a brainy style that kept the Chicago team
puzzled the enitire game. Cooper made
a beautiful run of 20 yards on A fake
