Early, Alumni secretary. A program has been arranged by W. Clarkson McDow, class of 1928, a Charlotte lawyer and loyal graduate of the University. This meeting is for alumni living in Charlotte. York County, South Carolina, due to its proximity to the North Carolina city, is also included. Mr. Early stated that several hundred alumni arc present in York county and Charlotte and all signs point to an assured success for the meeting. The next meeting after the Charlotte meeting will be held in Spartanburg Friday night, March 14th.

This meeting will be in charge of the Spartanburg chapter of alumni of the University of South Carolina, Claude A. Taylor, Bobo Burnette, and F. E. Crawford. Full details will be given later. About twelve hundred alumni of the University live in these counties. Other meetings in prospect are Orangeburg, Charleston, Darlington, Asheville, North Carolina, and Atlanta, Georgia. The Alumni Association plans to hold county and district meetings each week from now until May 23rd. On Tuesday June 10th, the annual meeting of the Alumni Association will be held in the University chapel. All of the meetings now being held lead up to the big meeting in June when the annual election of officers of the Alumni Association will be held and reports made of alumni work during the year. The first time that any meetings had been held out in the State was in the fall of 11)27. The Alumni Association's progress, on account of lack of sufficient finances, has been slow but much progress has been made since September 1, 1927 and the time is not far distant when the University will have a strong Alumni organization working for it, it is predicted.

A warm bright afternoon. The sun shining on a red kite which was dipping, rising, gliding and soaring above LeConte College. The green was almost deserted except for the boy flying the kite. His white head was raised in joyful glee to watch that red dot. He let out his string, yard after yard, his ball of cord became smaller and smaller while the kite above became smaller also as it danced and swayed against the blue. Its color became darker till it seemed a mere black spot at its height. The boyish enthusiast watching it so intently and reeling out string was none other than the dignified president of the junior class! Boys will be boys.
