POLICEM4N SEE VERSITY PUG! Officer of Law After Revenge FISTIC ENCOUNTER SOUGHT Looks For Student And is Re lieved on Not Finding Him Pre.senting himself as ready to fight, a policeman of the Columbia City po lice department came to the University of South Carolina campus one day last week. The uniformed policeman drove his motorcycle along Bull stre.t, park ed it behind the University extension building, then walked across the cam pus. He. told some of the students that some time ago he heard that a Caro lina student wanted to see him just one more time. And he said he under stood that if the student ever me.t him again, it was the student's desire to "beat him." "Here. 1 am," said the policeman, "I am now going to walk around here and give him his chance." But so far as can be learned, the fight was neve.r staged. And the policeman left the campus with an apparent mental relici. It is generally understood on the Carolina campus that no Columbia po liceman is allowed on its territory. A few years ago a policeman chase.d a Carolina student down Sumter street until the student reached the campus. Then the policeman had to stop. Tra dition also points out that a few years ago a policeman appeared on the cam pus, and when the students saw him they chased him away with rocks. The policeman ran, and was glad to escape without injury. "Jedge" is the only policeman allow ed on the Carolina campus. And only when he needs "extra help" is a city policeman allowed to lend a hand.

Last year a course in radio was offered for one semester by the depart ments of physics under the direction of Professor Carson. There were only a few interested at the. time, but it has steadily grown. The number of students now devoted to the new science are rapidly growing and show some real talent in handling the ethe real waves that are constantly burden ed with things of interest. Under the direction of Professor Carson some efficient broadcasting and receiving sets have been made. They have been unable to test the distance of those sets, but so far they function perfectly. On one occasion a 30 miin ute program of music played by a por table victrola on one side of the cam pus was received perfectly in the science building. The quality of the tone was almost the same as the. high powered stations doing commercial broadcasting. Several nights ago one. of the stu dents got a conversation carried on between a man in the northern part of F,ngland and some one in the U. S. This student could not enter into the conversation because he did not have a sending set of sufficient strength. 'hese station to station calls are on low wave length and are out of the! range of the regular receivers. Another night Bannie Stewart tuned in on a way conversation between a station in Pittsburg and the radio oper ator of the Byrd expedition at the south pole. The messages from Byrd's operator were in the morse code and those from Pittsburg by voice. Both were remarkably clear and distinct and free from static. On the same set a day later the. reception was interrupted by the scintillating hum which indi cates the transmission of a picture-. commonly known as television. nk ;ous and Refreshing L WITH AUT ThouG fT E.

Dick ens was in constant retreat before the tremendous rights of the Carolina fighter and all three rounds went to Keels by a wide margin. Heavyweight Captain Wolfe, Carolina, 182, won over Morris, Georgia, 188. Making his last ring appearance for Carolina before a Columbia,,ud icnce, Wolfe peppered Morris ' with terrific rights and lefts in half clinches and close exchanges and had the Geor gian hanging on at the final gong. Due to the. constant clinching of the Georgia 'heavy, the bout contabned much infighting and Wolfe put in many vicious jolts to his opponent's mid-section that weakened Morris con siderably. Southern Tourney With four out of five wins, the Gamecocks will rule one of the fav orites at the southern tournament to be held at Charlottesville, March 1, 2, and 3. Wilson, Keels, and Wolfe are expected to make strong bids in their respective classes and all Carolina and Columbia will be pulling for the entire squad. usC "I have never kissed a girl in mm life," remarked the painfully proper young man.
