University of South Carolina Libraries
College Comment Since our Honor System, of revered memory, is still passive and past de spite worthy attempts at revival, a gimpse into similar affars of our brother universities should not be amiss at this time. Sewanec, the University of the South, kr this scholastic year. The committee for th's chol!astic yar. The connmitte^ consists of six members, each class be ing represented. According to the Sewaree Purple, school paper, this small bbdy ft nctions perfectly, so that the honor of the University is maintained in a manner entirely compatible with its high standards. Tho our student body is much larger than Sewanee's, there is no reason to believe that it contains a greater pro portion of undesirables. '1 the Honor System is reirstated here it can qu:ckly be placed on a firm basis by the hearty support of all the honest students, and there will remain no problem concerning the others. Our boast that we have a renovated and enlarged library is by no means uni que, even within the boundaries of the Palmetto State. The Johnsonian, offi cial publication of Winthrop's fair ladies, devotes a col:mn of its front page in setting forth the claims of its library, recently remodeled to accomo date 200,000 volumes. As its present contents number only 31,800 volumes, there is ample room for increase, but the indefatigable penmanship of certain local swains should endow the Winthrop library with at least 200 volumes, each rivalling the wellknown letters of He loise and Abelard, the medieval lovers. Wofford College is offering a series of night courses parallel to those now getting under way in Carolina's halls of learning, apparently without trepi dation or financial nervous spells. The classes are intended primarily for the benefit of graduate students, and have a total enrollment of seventy-one. This is the second year that sech nocturnal scholastic activities hsave taken place in the Spartanburg college, so it is evident that the plan is entirely feasible. And what can be done n Spartanburg can be done with at least the same facility in Columbia. We have recently been informed, via Grapevine Telegraph Co., that after the late lamented pres:dential election cer tain students on the campus of the Uni versity of Virginia hung streamers of black crepe upon the statue of Thomas Jefferson, in mourning for "Religious Tolerance, Deceased in These United States." The sad event, so fittingly symbol:zed by our brethren, arot:ses in us expres sions of heartfelt sympathy and condlol ence. The loss is ours eveni as it is th eirs. "It was dliscoveredl that several fresh men were shirking their dluty at:d look ing on from the p)rivacy of thier windlows instead of engaging in the activities. TFhis, lack of interest aroused the active workers, an;d with shouts they rushedl thru the (dormitor:es and rustled out every muember of the freshman class."

A spirit like that is usually rewvarded by victory. We (It not wvhm to detract from the Old liner's sp)lendidl cornquest by calling attention to the s core of their October clash wvith the "ole home team."

Carolina, aside from the Clemson de feat, boasts one of the best records in this section of the country, having turn ed back such strong teams as Chicago, Maryland, and Virginia. But, on the other hand, the Gamecocks have been suffering a slump during the last several contests which has caused a gloomy spell over the Birds' hopes. However, Game cock supporters are anticipating a com plete reversal of form next Saturday and expect to minimize considerably the blow of the Purple Hurricane. EUPHRADIAN PRESIDENT DELIVERS SPEECH (Cont:nued from page one) iner also stated that today the flower of speech from the silver tongue orator ;s as much enjoyed as it once was be eath the olive trees of Greece. Immediately after the inauguration ceremonies. a reception was given in tionor of the new officers. President %'ounginer presided for the reception, and was honored by M:sses Emily Geiger and Aileene Funderburke whom he call ed upon to take their seats on his either side. A mock debate was a chief event, the affirmative side of which was up held by two boys and the negative by two co-eds, on the query, "Resolved: ''hat the co-eds should play football w:th the girls of CoL mbia and Chicora Colleges." The negative side was given the decision. Another feature of the program was an humorous speech by "Punk" Atkinson. Sandwiches and punch were served (luring the reception. from their actual conclusions. It is unnecessary to describe "with tears in our voice" (Daily Tribulat*ont of Teaching, by Josiah Morse.) the oc currence of incidents showir.g the lack of spirit on the Carolina campus. They go almost unnoticed, for such s the at titude of the majority. Freshman-"Yeah. a sophomore is my broommate."

With the exception of the Tiger af fair, this is the -greatest game of the season-and espe~cially so Saturday, sirce Carol'na intends to route the hoo doo and break the scoreless ties that have been making themselves quite num crous around the Gamecock camp of late. Furman has stopped our march to the state championship at least twice in re cent years, bt.t all indications point to our placing a check on theirs this sea son-so turn out for the pep meetings to be held prior to the game. -UFC NEW RINGS TO BE VOTED UPON (Continued from page onr" isvibie and of uniform design a:l qtuality.

DecoraConm Mr. Driver, the director of athletics, has received a bill from the Orangeburg Fair officials for banners and other dec orations taken from the grounds by Car olina students. Although the above men tioned articles were probably taken through fun and for souvenirs, and in view of the fact that the athletic depart ment has been charged quite a large sum for the decorations, Mr. Driver re quests that those students who have these above mentioned articles please retirn them to his office immediately and no questions will be asked. 1-Tatum Offers COLLEGE CLO THES For fall and winter wear here's a selection that beats anything we've ever shown.

The cattle died of thirst that day When water flooded the town The dust was something awful, While the water was knee deep. The evening train had a blowout Which disturbed the pilot's sleep. "Don't shoot," the captain shouted As he tangoed down the deck, "I've got a pair of bee's knees And a red landlubbers neck 'Twas pitch black dark at noon that Night, as the sun began to pass. And a bare-foot boy with shoes on Stood sitting in the grass. The horses' calf was braying, The hound clog meowed out loud, The cat barked at the elephant, ' And the jackass seemed real proud. The ship was heaving slightly, Not a street-car was in sight. The conductor called the balls and strikes, While. it rained all (lay that night. All hell broke loose as the roof caved in It seemed my life was staked. IF YOU ARE PLANNING A THE CAMEL CIT Yellow Coach Chair Cars-T] Busses in operation-A i Rates on Request CAMEL CITY CO.
