alumn bailey writes for magazine "Churchman" Publishes Paper By First Man to Receive t Ph.D. From University ik . i A very interesting paper has appeared in "The Churchman," October 4th, 1930, by Dr. Thomas P. Bailey, Professor of Ethnology, Rollins College, Winter Park, Florida, under the title of "The World, The Flesh, and The Devil," which "Is the Disease of Modern Society, Materialism or Perverted Idealism?" Dr. Bailey is a member of the International Academy of Letters and Sciences of Naples. Dr. Bailey is a graduate of the University of South Carolina, receiving his A.B. degree in 1887; his A.M. degree in 1889, and his Ph.D. degree in 1891. Dr. Bailey has the honor of being the first man who received the degree of Ph.D. from the University of South Carolina. Dr. Bailey's title, "Professor of Ethnology," so far as is known, is the only one of the,kind in the world. Half of his work consists of conferences with individual students as to character estimates, especially needs and abnormalities. prominentalumni see citadel game Among the many prominent alumni who attended the Carolina-Citadel game at Orangeburg were: Dr. M.

ALUMNI TO RECEIVE COPIES OF GAMECOCK The Alumni Association is anxious to increase its membership, and thinks it would be a good suggestion to ask each member of the association, after reading the Gamecock to mail it to a friend, who is not a member of the association. Members of the Alumni Association are entitled to a year subscription' to the Gamecock, the official student body publication. V. 8. C. SOUTH CAROLINA SEEN IN BASKET Dr.Jfates Snowden, history professor, caused quite a furor on the campus last Saturday. Say, did you see Dr. Yates Snowden this morning?" "No, what about him?" "He's going around with a big basket on his arm." A basket? Is he going shoppintj or what?" | "I don't know. He walked into Davis a few minutes ago. Let's go see if we can find out." Further investigation revealed that in the said basket were transported six or eight books dealing with "South Carolina." 'Tis a novel idea. If some of our stu, dents tried it, maybe they wouldn't bring the wrong book to the right class quite so often. u. s. c. MRS.

"I ^ m particularly prejudiced against col- ( ges run strictly for women, but feel { lat there is lot to be said in favor of t )-educational institution," she writes. j According to Mrs. Putnam, the pure- ^ r feminine college is a holy terror. At:ndance at such a college more often lan not leaves a girl hanging midway s etween intellectual snobbery and a praccal education in living, without achiev- ^ lg either. For the girl who is deliberate- * r planning a career for herself, the riter advises four years at college. ' "But for an average girl who intends 1 ) make marriage her chief business? rid thank heaven, they are still in the mjority?to waste four precious years lat ought to be devoted to,romantic adenture, at a college which offers only ontact with her own sex, seems tragic, tnd what's more, the erperience is often ' lighty unhealthy for her whole point of iew on sex," the writer declares with 1 mphasis. 1 According to Mrs. Putnam, a girl who ' lans going to college should select one rhere she may mingle, not with her own jx entirely, but also with the opposite I ex. The author ends up with quite a ombastic statement that any work, praccally, will teach a girl more in a month lat will be of real value to her than ie'11 pull out of four years at "Wreckem lollege."

T. Penny, wife of a Professor in the Biology Department, dj ind a friend were returning from Cam- m len. Seeing two Clemson Cadets ev mmming in this direction they gave hem a ride. The Cadets were holding an animated m >ost mortem of the Big Game, declarng that they had been sure Clemson ^ vould win and discussing the superi>rity of the Tigers over the Game:ocks. One of them said that Carolina's dc earn was terrible this year, and that le had heard -that Coach Billy Laval ca vas to be fired shortly. Mrs. Penny had heard as much as she could stand, and turning to her 'riend she said, "I'm sorry, Mrs. Laval, [ hadn't heard that your husband was joing to lose his job." Not until they reached Columbia were the Clemson Cadets convinced that she was not Mrs. Laval. n.s.c. b. Nelson Elected As Representative P. H.
