News of the men and women who spent a few years of their young lives in this University is always interesting and The Gamecock is anxious to carry as much of it that can be gathered from reliable sources.

GRADS TO RETURN FOR HOMECOMING(Continued from Page 1) given box seats at the game and will add color to the whole day's proceedings. After the meeting and luncheon the grads will be marched in a body to Melton field where they will occupy a special section of seats. After all, the affair on Melton field will be the most attractive dish on the homecoming menu, and the body of alumni can certainly be expected to shout their approval with the same enthusiasm that prompted them to travel from their far-distant towns and cities to be on hand. Barney Earley has worked untiringly on the plans for the success of this homecoming day and to him the thanks for a good job should be directed. U.B.C. CAROLINA CITADEL FETED AT FAIR (Continued fiom Page 1) a fine exhibition of silent drill between the halves. The game last week marked the twenty-fourth annual clash between the Citadel and Carolina. Of this number the former has won five, the latter 15, three ending in knotted scores. The cadets have won only once since 1919, but no game since that year has been over a two-touchdown victory for the Birds. As is their custom, the Orangeburg | people played hosts to both student ! bodies, giving them their dinner and I showing them many other courtesies. U.S.O.?? ' t = / Alumni Trail Homecoming day next Saturday looms as a grand festival and a flani-g red letter day in the annals of ^outli Carolina s alumni history. 1 he occasion promises to hold a pleasing realization of all the fond dreams and fancies that George Hell 1 immcrman and Barney A. Earley president and executive secretary respectively, of the Alumni Association, have been hatching in their brains for the past two or three months in anticipation of entertaining the largest and most enthusiastic gathering of alumni _ that has ever assembled at one of the , University s homecomings. The festivities of the day will assume the proportions of a triple threat affair, featuring the United States Marine Hand 111 morning and evening concerts at the University Field House, the alumni meeting and luncheon in Steward s Hall, and the football clash between the Gamecocks and the Tar Heels of the University of North Carolina. ^ All three of these attractions are on c schedule only as a main current of the t celebration. Numerous other minor s features will be scattered on the program and will add a pleasing variation P lo the events of the day. I I Many hundreds of graduates and former collcginas of the University f have followed the spirited Gamecocks I in their battles with the Tigers and I the Bulldogs in the annual fair classics, but the number will be small compared to the body of alumni who will attend the North Carolina Game and watch the gridiron warriors of their Alma Mater fight it out with the boys from t Chapel Hill. p Sport writers have thought little of li the game from a South Carolina stand- f point because of the dampening effects '] of the Virginia and Clemson games, h but^ something has been flowing from 1 their pens since the Citadel game that c changes the tune to a more pleasing 1 anthem. j North Carolina can look back over c an enviable series of victories and over- d whelming scores, but since Georgia t threw a wrench into the works the Tar s Heels have lost some of that early season unbeatable aspect. In fact the a result of the game on homecoming a day seems to be depending on the well- known breaks, and, if the upper Car- g olina should send down a better team I than this writer is expecting, the fact ( that (he game will be in the Game- ii cocks' own back yard will go far to even up the odds. v ,,,, 1 he two thousand alumni who arc e expected to be here for the celebration on the fast approaching November 9 ' are in for a real twenty-four hours of celebration and if they do not take this opportunity to bid the office, or the store, or the wifey, good-bye and come dow n to do their share of the homecoming, it will just be their own hard luck.
