C., TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 6, 1928 No GAMECOCKS TIE BULLDOGS IN ANNUAL GAME Opposing Teams Never Able To Break Across Opponent's Goal Line GAME ENDS IN 0-0 SCORE Largest Crowd Attends Game Held At Orangeburg Fair Thursday The Carolina Gamecocks, fighting against tough luck and a half dozen jinxes, let Citadel jolt a few feathers by holding the Birds to a 0-0 tie at the Orangeburg classic last Thursday. The Gamecocks, making 8 first downs to the Bulldog's 2 and outplay ing the Cadets in every department of the game lost, at least, several gotI chances to score when penalties and failure to make first down by an inch pushed the ball back from the Citadel's goal posts. Bob Wimberly was the outstanding player of the game, smashing the Cita del line repeatedly and breaking loose for several long sprints. The first quarter was practically nothing more than a punting duel with both teams alternating in possession of the ball in midfield. Citadel's only threat came in the second period when, with the ball on Carolina's 23 yard line, failed to gain and tried a field goal which went wide. Carolina displayed a sparkling at tack in the second quarter when line smashes and end runs by Beall and Wimberly, coupled with two passes completed, advanced the ball from her own 20 yard stripe to Citadel's 35 yard marker. A pass over the goal line from Beall to Boineau was dropped and the ball went over on downs. Howle, Citadel back, made a pretty sprint in the last period when he ran from his own 20 yard line to Carolina's 45 vard stripe before he was halted Tn the late stages of the game, Ed Zobol. standing on his own goal line r-^*ived a Citadel punt and ran the '-'1 hack to midfield for one of the nr^+tiest runs of the game. Carolina -^Qtpd to a nassing attack near the e.',.., of the fourth period but was ud'"- "r when the ball went over on --ns ss the game ended with Citadel nopFssion of the ball on her 45 "-'^d line.

"He and She" Merits Repeat Performance Increasing Crowds Mark Show ing of Rachel Crother's Well Known Play "He and She" a drama by Rachel Crothers was presented at the Town Theatre, under the direction of Wil ham Dean last Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. Edward Pritchard, a University student took an outstanding part in the production. His acting would be a credit to almost any play and he is due much credit for the excellent way in which he put his part across. Miss Sarah Quattlebaum also a student of the University, made a good showing while playing the part of Millicent. The other parts were taken by E. G. Whiteside, Mrs. Julius Taylor; Miss Epps Jones; Alex Martin; Miss Lutie Robinson and Miss Daisey Lee Powell. Mr. Whiteside took the part of the sculptor while Mrs. Julius Tay lor, also playing as an artist took the -rt of his wife. Miss Jones playc< the difficult role and showed skill and ability as a dramatic artist. The setting of the play is in a studio in New York. The stage setting for this particuular production was desig -ated by William Dean. The scenevy blends well with the play, lending an effect that enhances the atmosphere of the production. The frieze used in the play was designated by Lewis West and much praise is due Mrs. William Dean who designed the costumes. -use Bradlev Speaks on "Honor Principle" Gives History of Syste mSince Installation In This University Professor Bradley of the Department of German gave a lecture on "The Honor Principle" last Sunday night at chapel, explaining how it with the Honor Committee had caused a shifting of the responsibility to that committee. He traced its working from its very be ginning at Carolina, over a period of a century and a quarter. "Every man has his own conception of honor," he said, "but every man knows 'what is right. The'word of the student is held sacred and it is beneath the dignity of a gentleman to have hi.; word questioned. Until 1910- there was no written law in regard to the Honor System; each class looking out for any breaches within itself." Professor Bradley then told how the Honor. Committee idea was suggested. He explained that the Honor principle is concurrent with not only exams, qtuizes etc., but, the conduct of ever student at all times and at all place.. In 1927 a long questionaire was place in .the hands of each strdent and from the results of these papers it wvas felt that the Honor System, as used then, had broken down. Pan Hellenic Coun.

A LUMNI CHOOSE DAY OF GAME FOR GATHERING Contest With Furman to Mark Reunion of Old Grads PLAN BEGUN LAST YEAR Fall Meeting Featured By Lun cheon and General Get Together Home Coming Day, the second to be held under the precedent set last year of having it on the date of one of the football games, will be November 17 the day of the Furman-Carolina classic, according to Barney A. Earley, secre tary of the University Alumni Associa tion. Two of these General Alumni meetings are held each year, one in the spring and another in the fall. This is the first fall meeting under the new plan. Home Coming Day was held last year on the date of the University of N. C. game which was won by the Gamecocks with a score of 14-6. As the Furman game is always one of much interest, the General Fall Meeting has been set for that time. The game will be the high spot of the meeting and with all probability the university is expecting the largest num ber of alumni visitors within the history of the Association. Before the game the. guests will assemble at the Rose Mary Tea room where a Dutch lunch eon will be served. It is to be more of a get-together pep meeting than a business meeting. tnmediately after luncheon they will adjourn as a. group to Melton Field for the game Alumni members who expect to attend the game have been. requested to. make their reservations in advance. so as to secure the best seats jvailable. . . -w sc-.-- " - - - ...
