Tenements _ IntraM117u Contest Football UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH CAROLINA VOL. XXII. COLUMBIA, S. C., TUESDAY. DECEMBER 4, 1923 No.1/0 NII T SCHOOL REPORTEb DOING EXCELLENT WORK New Department Under Dean Rowe Will Probably be Made Permanent Addition "PRACTICAL MEN" TEACHES Larger Enrolhnent Expected Af ter Holidays and Other Sub-. jects May be Added The night school, under the direction of Dean Walter . Rowe, head of the engineering school, is making rapid pro gress and bids fair to become one of the integral parts of the university. Dean Rowe, who was formerly head of the engineering department of a Pliiladel phia night school, says that conditidus are very satisfactory and point to the night ,school being a pekrmanent success. The night school was instituted for the purpose of aiding those large num bers of Columbians and others, who are not able to attend the regular sessions of the university, in securing a higher education. It is helping two sets of people: First, older persons whose edu cation, for some reason, was neglected during their youth; and second, young men and women who are forced to work during the day time. The last group, the director states is the one in which the school is pa' ticularly interested. He wishes to have enough of them to enroll so that in thr ft:'ture a regular four year course car be worked out. He is of the opinior that this group, when interested enough to enroll in a night are usually desirous of getting a full college education. The school is at present offering courses in French, accounting, elemen try accounting, electrical transmission. and English. There are approximately seventy-five students enrolled. Classes are divided into enrollment of about ten members each. Any time that ten ex tra stiulents are enrolled, a new class will be formed. Several of them are expected to be made necessary after the Christmas holidays. Dean Rowe, in discussing the prospects for future successes of the night school, says that at least two hundred st.t:dents should be enrolled from a city the size of Columbia. There are a large number of people who desire an education, but can not be reached by the ordinary sys tem of schools. When these people realize the opportunities offered them at the university, the enrollment will probably be greatly increased. (Continued to page eight) -'---U.s.c.

THE EXTENSION DIVISION NEEDS FINANCIAL AID Extension Department of Uni versity Has Tried to Keep Up Good Standard DIRECTOR IS NOT PAID People of State Make Good Use Of This Depart ment Many students are no doubt unaware of the fact that one department of the University is being operated without any appropriations from the Legislature whatever,-the Extension Division. Pie Legislature first reduced the revenues of the department during the directorship of Dr. B. L. Parkinson, but the Un,iver sity decided that, in view of the sup plies, equipment, and good will the de partment had built up, it would have been uneconomical to abolish it alto geiher. The announcement that all ap propriatios had been discontinued had no visible effect on the number of calls made on the department, a faqt which would have made a change embarrass ing. A skeleton organization was con sequently preserved. The personnel of the division has been reduced from a maximum of eight or nine persons to two, Dr. H. Babcock, Director, and Mrs. Lou Parker, in charge of the Bureau of Public Discussion. Naturally the work of the Extension Division has been severely handicapped by the withdrawal of legislative aid, and certain activities, s:ch as the printing of books and pamphlets and the University Weekly News, -have been discontinued altogether. With these exceptions, the work of the department is being con ducked substantially as it was with ap propriations, although the personnel has been greatly reduced. In fact, the rec ords of the Bureau of Public Discussion indicate a larger volume of business, more calls for assistance received and answered, more supplies ft:rnished, dur ing the past year than during any sea son previous to it. As at present conducted, The Exten sion Division is largely self-supporting. T:he Director, who has a full-time teach (Contmnued to page eight) -U.s.c.

What ?" Coach Laval gave an interesting talk before a large audience of students. Sunday night at the "Y." meeting in the chapel. "My subject for tonight covers much territory," he said. "especially the word 'What.'" After football what will the seniors do; will they be a success or a failure, will they break training and throw away their time ?" Tie speaker told how training receiv :d on the football fields would inspire all to a greater effort in work and how men learned to play a square game. There are three things to remember, whether playing football or in any phase of life," said Mr. Laval, "'The first of these is 'hard work,' and every occupation to he a success must have it. "Next to this", he continued, "there must be an 'honest effort.' You, can't deceive a coach when you are breaking training, neither can you deceive your professor, just wait until your reports go in and see." "Another thing to remember," he added, "is 'Fair play.' Don't take ad vantage of your fellow man ; play the game fifty-fifty with everyone. It is an effort to have teams that always play fair." He explained that these rules apply not only to football payers but to every one and that it was his ambition to see these principes always obeyed. In concluding the Coach stated that he had ben coaching football teams ever since he was 18 years old and had tried to turn ot:t clean sports. "I'm here," he asserted, "not only to 1 coach teams but to serve Carolina. I'm interested in all activities at Carolina and I'm always glad to help anyene that I can in any phase of camlpus5 lie. I'm one of you, I'm here for service and a greater Carolina." Meeting of Spanish .

WOLFPACK WIAS OVER CAROLINA THA NKSGIVING Several Gamecock Players Star r In Spite of the Defeat of 18 to 7 LAST GAME FOR SENIORS Cooper, Wolfe, Rogers; Griffin; Guarino; Wimberly Play Last Game Leading at the end of the first half by a one point margin, the Carolina Gamecocks lost prestige and were turned back during the latter two periods, losing to North Carolina's Wolfpack by an 18-7 score in the Tur key Day battle at Raleigh. Although Carolina's team was hand ed a stinging defeat in the final game of the season, the memories of several Gamecocks whose starring careers were brought to a close will linger long in the hearts of Carolina fans. Among those will undogbtedly be listed the name of Bob Wimberly. Eddie Zobel, the early season flash, who led the Gamecocks in victories over Chicago, Virginia and Maryland was in the line-up a large, part of the game but the Wolfpack kept the elu sive halfback covered in every move. Despite this, Zobel would probably have gotten loose if he- had not been kept from practice by injuries and the flu which set him back for a period of over a month. Harry Wolfe and Julian Beall, the former playing hiis last game in gar net and black colors, checked the rushes of N. C. State backs repeatedly and played one of the best games of the season. ' Power Rogers, Carolina's mainstay at end was there as usual to clip runs around that side of the line and ended his career brilliantly. ''he Wolipack drew first blood when a pass, in the second quarter placed the ball on Carolina's 20 yard line. A line play failed, then Warren tosse' the pigskin to Melton who was stand ing on the goal line. Adams failed in try for extra point. The Birds retaliated a few minutes later when Bob Wimberly. Carolina's "race-horse," took one of Beall's ins es in midfield and dashed 53 yards for a touchdown, "Happy" Edens, sub: stitute quarterback, placed the ball between the uprights for the extra point, the half ending with the score, Carolina 7, N. C. tate 6. The Wolfpack came back strong in the third period, placing the ball on Carolina's I yard line, but the Birds held and received the ball on downs. However, the "Staters" opened up an other drive when a pass from Outer to Goodwin for 15 yards, coupled with a trick play placed the ball on the Gamecocks' 8 yard stripe. Bob War ren, in four line punges. went over for the next counter, making the score N. C. State 12, Carolina 7, when the try for extra point failed. In the last few minutes of play, Car lisle Beall intercepted a pass on his own 12 yard litne, but the Birds were penalized to the one foot line. Several plays ran the ball out to the 14 yard (Continued to page eight) Notice. All candidates for the boxing team are to report to the gym Wednesday afternoon &t 5 o'clock.
