I ALUMN D tik V t /-? Past Years Gr AfowFo X , Although Carolina does not have as great a national reputation as some colleges have for turning out great athletes, quite a number of men have finished at Carolina who have and who are making good as high school and college coaches, i The class of 1930 includes one college and at least three high school, coaches. Oi course this list of Carolina alumni coaches is by no means complete and represents ohly a few of those who in the past years'have gone out from Carolina to carry on the work of developing a boy's body and at the same time his 1 morale. < Julian Beall, captain of the football team last year, is now coaching at High Point College in North Carolina. Barney Smith is at New Brookland high school. Hugh Stoddard, star backfield man last year, directs the Sumter high team, Carl ' Wingard is coaching at Blythewood. In the more recent years Carolina men have put out winning teams all over the state. Bill Boyd is with the Greenwood high school. Floyd Thomas is at Lodge, S. C. Tatum Gressette always has a winning team at Richmond Academy, Augusta. Ernie Burke coaches Riverside Military Academy. Harry Lightsey helps with Columbia high, while H; B. Rhame is the chief mentor of the Capitols. Sewall Hawkins, former gym asMo'iant, is at Aynor, S. C. Carlisle Military Academy is coachcd by J. D. Parler. Hey- , ward Brockinton, now City Recorder, coached Carolina freshmen as did Jack Cantcy. Burnet Stoncy, now on Caro- j lina's coaching staff, also coached the Marines at Newport NeWs, Va. In the years further back, Dr. Ralph K. Foster, our present director of stu- , dent activities, coached at the Citadel in 1906 and 1907. Some 15 years ago James G. Driver coached at Carolina. Barny , Early, alumni secretary, has coached at Wofford Fitting School and at Florence , high. In the trying time when Carolina ] first met Clemson in 1909 after the fracas of 1902, Douglas McKay, now a prominent lawyer in Columbia, steered Caro- 1 Una's team. J 1 u, s. c.

KIL DISCUSSED ON ANNIVERSARY :TA SIGMA PHI MEETING toman Banquet To Be Held In Honor of New Members As this is the bi-millennium of the ativersary of Virgil, Dr. L. T. Baker ilked on Virgil's influence to the rnemirs of the Eta Sigma Phi honorary assical fraternity at their regular meetig Wednesday night. Maud Brazelle is resident and Lorraine Gale introduced te speaker. Dean Baker made an informal talk beinning with his experiences with Latin i high school, saying that he had memozed the whole of the first book of irgil. Then speaking as to prospective teachs he pointed out the charm of Aeneid, s power as a story and its power as a idactic work. "Virgil's work centers "ound the character of Aeneas and he rings to us all that went into the making f the Roman Empire, through action id pictures." The one theme is the mison of Aeneas to found Rome, to give .ome to the world. "The treatment of Virgil should be to lake it as real, as human as the teachr's ability cap permit. Arouse interest, itellectual curiosity, and philological intinct," he suggested.

C. Withers in 1857 Last week Dr. Yates Snowden brought to the library a book which was published in London in 1857 and purchased in the same year by the late Judge T. J. Withers, then living in Camden, to be presented to the University of South Carolina. In some way it came into the possession of Kirkland Trotter of Camden, the donor's grandson. That this little volume by Edward Kirkpatrick, entitled "Historically Received Conception of the University as Considered with Special Reference to Oxford," has not been read during the 73 years of its existence is evidenced by its undipped pages. In it is inscribed "Presented to the South Carolina Library by T. C. Withers. 1857." R. L. Kennedy, librarian, expresses great delight over the fact that the book : has finally reached its destination , after a delay of three quarters of a century, ' u. s. c.
