S. C METHODISTS
HOLD CONFERENCE
from eight colleges
Held At Washington Street
Methodist Church; Dr. Rowe
Prominent Speaker
Students representing eight colleges
of South Carolina met in Columbia for
the second South Carolina Methodist
Student's Conference last weekend, February
20 to 22. The sessions were held
in the Washington Street Methodist
Church. The conference was invited to
Spartanburg for next year's session.
The meeting was brought to climax
Sunday morning with the annual Consecration
Service followed by a sermon,
"The Aims of Present Day Christianity,"
by Dr. Gilbert Rowe, of Duke University.
Dr. Rowc's sermon took the form
of Washington Street's regular Sunday
morning service, the congregation as well
as the students being present.
Saturday afternoon in the business
session E. K. Hardin, of Wofford College
was elected president to succeed
Carlisle Roberts of the University of
South Carolina. Mr. Hardin served the
conference very ably last year as treasurer.
He is a rising senior at Wofford.
Miss Ruth Lineberger, of Lander College,
was elected vice-president; John
13. Benett, Wofford, secretary; Leon
Keaton, Jr., University, Treasurer; \
Elizabeth Daniel, Converse, entertainment;
Alice Holler, Columbia College
and Charles Hogarth, Clemson, directors
of publicity.
Much interest was shown in the discussion
groups that came the first two
days. The students were taken on a
visit to Saluda Dam Saturday afternoon
and that night they were entertained by
a banquet at Columbia College given by
the students there. A feature of the banquet
was a talk by Dr. Rowe on "Religion
for College Students."

Sunday was Washington's birthday and
they served cherry pie for dessert for dinner
at the mess hall. And then some boy

Since pajamas arc now being worn to

"Awake! Awake! Cast off this dusty

If you see a pretty co-ed smiling at
you, don't think she's advertising Colgate

for May Queen!
Clemson, Converse, and Winthrop colleges
are now under quarantine. Just
think of the glorious uniforms and new
spring clothes that are going to waste!
The windows in the front door of
Davis were washed last week! Maybe the
professors wanted the students to have
some light on various subjects!
Ever notice the difference in the ringing
of the chapel bell? It sounds so
cheery after we win a football game and
so gloomy when it rings for classes!
Thoughts between classes:
Wonder how many co-eds smoke? And
which they prefer? And didja ever notice
the various struts of the different
profs on the campus? Or how the journalism
students flock around Colonel McKissick
when he goes in the Canteen?
How did you feel when you cut that
class and then met the professor in the
next few minutes? And the co'.ors of the
ties that the faculty members wear! Talk
about flaming youth!
.Wonder if tlusc professors that come
to classes in Tux shirts have been up all
night! Maybe they were doing research
work! Or having a date with Dracula!

Wonder what Mrs. White serves?
The February issue of The Carolinian

contents yet, but hope the authors refrained
from so much bloody murder this

William Dean told his Public Speaking

the reason young people make love at
night when all the world's in mourning!
Kappa Sigma Kappa hasn't joined the

Havilah Babcock says that a lie is a
terminological inexactitude. Imagine calling
a person that?might think you were
flattering them!
Thank heavens! It will soon be time to
go swimming again! And if we can just
make it Saturday?we can save the University
a lot of money by omitting the
weekly shower!
That ought to please the Legislature!
Like Dracula, we bid you adieu until
sunset!

CAROLINA TEAM
(Continued from page Six)
on a decision to Ed Kostainsek of the
invaders. Gettys, though outweighed
and smaller than the Virginian boxer,
put up a game fight, but could do no
harm to him.
In the unlimited division "Cowboy"
Urquhart of Carolina lost the final arid
deciding bout to Roy Dunn of V. M. I.
After being knocked down twice in
the first round, the cowboy put up one
of the gamest fights of the match
against his more skillful opponent.
Urquhart seemed to be rubber as he went
down to the canvas but bounced back
again to the fight, and was on his feet
as the second threw in the towel.
This was the last meet of the season
for Carolina. The team won three
matches and lost three, having been
undefeated in the State.
