1 ? The Political Pot "Always Bubbling Over" L . i The editor of the Political Pot promised to write up the prospects of The Carolinian election this week, so here goes. The Committee appointed from the four literary societies has finished the ( new constitution, which is to go be- j fore the four societies, meeting sepa- ( rately, sometime this week. A joint ( meeting of the four societies was callcd j this morning to repeal all previous. , constitutions of The Carolinian. Due | to the receptions given by the men's ( societies tonight, the passing of this new constitution will be put off until < later in the week. I This new constitution provides that ! the editor of The Carolinian this next j term be a girl. There arc four girls , eligible for this position. They arc \ Anne L. New, Elizabeth Marshall, , Mayre Wall, and Foy Stevenson. j Miss New is well equipped to handle , this office. She has worked on both The Gamecock and The Carolinian, and is a member of the local journalis- j tic sorority. Her compositions are brilliant and with her practical experience she should be an excellent editor for the monthly publication. However, it has been learned un- < officially that Miss New will not run < for this office. Elizabeth Marshall lias also served ] on the various publications. She is 1 also a member of the local journalistic sorority. Miss Marshall should be a very capable editor. It is understood, also unofficially, that Miss Marshall does not intend to run. Mayre Wall is one of the most prominent women on the campus, and with her backing she should win the election easily. She lias also worked on The Gamecock and The Carolinian. Foy Stevenson is the least known of the candidates, but is a very accomplished journalist. She has also served one the staff of both The Gamecock and The Carolinian. Miss Stevenson \&uld make a very competent editor Sr the Carolinian. c_> ^ Now is the time to start the old political slogan of "Carolina offices for ^arolina men." Too long in the past 2jhave we given these offices to men rSwho have come to us from other ""^schools. . They do not have the real Carolina spirit. This is natural and these men are often very fine men, but they cannot have the real feeling t due this school. If they did, they ^ could not be true to their real alma mater. Spring elections are just around the corner, so keep this slogan in mind and elect real University men to every position. The election for State offices will be held this summer. Every Carolina man and woman should bear this fact in mind, and if there is a one hundred per cent Carolina man in these races, vote for him. If we fail to do this the University will be confronted with the same bitter opposition that it now meets in State matters, especially in the lower house of the legislature. The Political Pot does not wish to insult any member of the general assembly, for no doubt these men are doing what they think is right, but what we of the University would like to know is this: how can these same men who voted for the sixty-five million dollar bond issue last year, arguing that it would help education, vote against educational appropriations this year? Does this not defeat the purpose of good legislation? It is the opinion of the Political Pot that all the money that can be raised in the state for educational purposes should be spent on education. If South Carolina is to get ahea(J in anything, she must have education and plenty of it. Carolina, forever for Carolina. U.B.O. GLEE CLUB PLAYS INEDGEFIELD The University Glee Club gave a public performance Friday evening at the Edgefield high school auditorium with Mrs. J. L. Mims, president, and the Woman's Christian Temperance Union of Edgefield sponsoring the program. This is the first trip the Glee Club has made since its northern tour in December. George Meetze, business manager of the club, stated recently that a tour in the western part of the stale is being planned. On this trip, the club will sing at Barnwell, Allendale, McCormick, and Granitevillc. One night's engagement has not been decided upon. Mrs. Troiter, assistant to Maurice Matteson in the musical department, accompanied the Glee Club and sang three numbers on the program. The club was also accompanied by Mrs. Maurice Matteson, who played the piano in accompaniment to some solos. JOHN LAKE TELLS |i OF EXPERIENCES MISSIONARY GIVES TALK ipeaks Of Conditions In China ,And Pays High Tribute To Chinese The Reverend John Lake, Baptist missionary to China for the past juarter of a century, spoke in chapel ast Tuesday. Mr. Lake told of some )f his experiences in China and of his :arly life as a native South Carolinan. His present visit to the University campus was not his first, as much :>f his early life had been spent on or near it. The speaker told of conditions in China and pointed out their great improvement in recent years. He said that the Chinese regarded themselves is the proper model of life, just as people of the white race regard themselves as being perfect. A Chinese :onsidcrs himself the equal of a person of the western world and cannot understand why he is regarded by the latter as being inferior. u.8.o. MATTHEWS HEADS COTILLION CLUB Officers for the present term were jlected at a meeting of the Cotillion :lub last week.
