Carlisle Roberts opened the program with a new version of "The Origin of Women." Mr. Boswell, who often sings over WIS, rendered several musical numbers and received much applause. The debate for the occasion was; Resolved that the women should make amatory, osculatory, and other advances to the men. The affirmative was represented by J. C. McDuffie and Alice Smoak, while the negative was defended by J. Mitchell Morse and Suzannah Barnwall. The judges decided that the affirmative knew more about the subject, so awarded that sidfc the decision. Another feature of the program was the reading of an original poem by a former president of the society, John Younginer. The poem dealt with students that the author had known while an undergraduate, many of whom were present. The annual orators' contest in the society will be held on Tuesday night, November 25. Any member is eligible who has not won an orator's medal in the society before. u. s. c. 1 WHAT DO ! YOU KNOW? 1 1. When was South Carolina Col- . lege chartered? 1 2.

"" * ' Dean McKis Have Chan i , ' - Dean McKissick of the School of Journalism told his sophomore class that The Gamecock should carry more feature articles. Well, how's this, Colonel? Before accepting his present position with the University, Colonel McKissick was heard to remark to professors: "You know, I certainly do envy you fellows your great amount of leisure time. In the newspaper^game we don't have much time to play around in." To which the professor addressed would make remarks of protestation, which invariably failed to make any impression on the Colonel. After several years of teaching, Dean has admitted to the same teachers his | mistake. And to this same class in journalism he remarked at a recent meeting: "You'll get those test papers back ; eventually. I have just been worked to ( death by having so many quizzes to correct and committee meetings to at- | tend. If they would postpone all meet- , ings for two weeks it might give me j time to turn around." t NO MEN AULOWED I BY DEAN DANCERS . t Enterprising Young Reported s Makes Humprous Error in Last < Issue ol "Gamecock" s s An over-enterprising young reporter, > in Ins efforts to get an interesting story 1 an the Dean dancers, made the humorous * error of writing in the last issue of The 11 Samecock that the dancers would prac- e :ice and be taught in the office of Mr. r William Dean. Inasmuch as much dress- J ng and undressing on the parts of the s ?irls is necessary the matter would be * \ case for the discipline committee if r :he statement was true. . ? The dancers are being taught by Mrs. ' Dean, and at present are holding their ^ practices in Chapel, where there is plenty , af privacy from the eyes of Mr. Dean J and other males, including reporters. Two reporters were told by Mr. Dean to go over to Chapel and get an eye-full af one of the first practices. On putting ^ in appearance, they were told by the lady j in charge that their presences could be lispensed with, as the girls required priv- ^ acy for their work. j Retribution, probably; but no doubt deserved. u. s. c.

' : i Yates Williams Yates rolled into his senior year at Carolina with the highest honor that his fellow-students could give him. Last spring he was elected president of the Student Body, this coming to him as a culmination of a heated campaign on the part of several students. Yates made his letter in freshman football, and played guard on the varsity his sophorpore year, but received an injury last /ear which prevented him from playing. He is a member of Phi Kappa Sigma fraternity, and is also president of the local chapter of Blue Key honorary leadership fraternity. Besides holding nembership in the Clariosophic Literary Society; he is a member of the Y. M. C. A He plans to enter the law school next fear.

He has been a coniistent player on the Gamecock eleven ince his freshman year, and was last 'ear chosen to captain the 1930 team.
