David Means Delivers Extemporaneous
Speech On "Thanksgiving"
To Society
The most important matter of business
before the Euphradian Literary
society at its meeting last Tuesday
night was the first reading of the new
constitution. Since this was the first
reading, no debate was held. The
second reading and the subsequent debate
will be held at the next meeting.

Wednesday In Honor Of Outstanding1

Student members will be elected to
chi circle of Omicron Delta Kappa at
the regular meeting of the honorary
leadership fraternity Wednesday evening
at 7:30 o'clock in the law building
according to Bland Hammond.

been appointed as a committee to

students who are eligible for membership.

body of the document is expected,
a literary program will also be given'
The feature of the literary program
of the meeting was an extemporaneous
speech on Thanksgiving, delivered
by David Means. Swerving from the
conventional method of approach, Mr.
Means treated this holiday as a natural
development of the religious consciousness
of a nation and cited similar
holidays in many other countries.
One of the fundamental needs of
a race is a diety," he said. "With
every race there is a day on which the
people come together to thank their
god for his protection and his blessings."
He went on to develop this
theme, deploring waning realization of
the true significance of Thanksgiving
day. Throughout his speech he
showed a splendid grip on his subject,
and on affairs in general, and amply
supplemented his points with illustrations
and examples.
Another speaker, N. C. Croft, spoke
on the president s unemployment relief
committee. He treated his subject
more from the human side than the
formal, and amplified the theme, "Am
I my brother's keeper?" In closing,
he described the test of our civilization
as to the ability to go on higher
and higher in the provision of necessities
and culture to all the people.
The debate for the evening, "Resolved:
That a State Board of Eugenics
Should be Established in South
Carolina, was rather disorganized,
one side discussing specific legislation
and the other the general aspects of
the case. A two to one verdict was
given the affirmative.

Students A
Facult
o
"If you were today elected president
of the yniversity of South Caro- '
lina, what changes would you make, i
what policies would you advocate?" ]
was the substance of a question asked \
the journalism lab class last Wed- ;
nesday; to which a large per cent of
them answered, "I would fire half of
the faculty."
W. C. Herbert, senior in the school '
of journalism, proposed making great
changes in the professors. He would
advocate in the faculty a unity of age
, and purpose. They should be supremely
interested in the University
and willing to make every sacrifice to
put it forward. He said, "The greater
. portion of the alumni give absolutely
r no evidence that they have been taught
( any love for the University during the
time in which they were taking
courses here. I would employ a faculty
with the definite purpose that
I they should convey school spirit of
such a type to the students that it
I should last after they have left this
campus?one which should manifest
I itself in the normal way of pushing
forward the University." This opini
ion was backed by many members of
the class.
There was a general cry among the
students of the need for a new stadium,
for a new chapel, and for a new
building to house the School of Jour
nalism.
I
VV. R. Geddings, a junior in the
School of Journalism, said that lie
would mafcc attendance at chapel noncompulsory,
and would make the buying
of student activity books voluntary.
fie would try to have separate
buildings for "The Gamecock," "The
Carolinian," and 'The Garnet and
Black."
T. W. Friday, a junior, taking journalism,
would see that all buildings
were completely overhauled. He
would also advocate that more organizations
benefitting the University
should receive funds'from the student
activity fee.
i Rena Buchanan, who is a junior in
! the School of Journalism, would try
; to do away with the friction among
| fraternities and sororities. She would
! do all possible to take politics off the
; campus, and would have students
1 promoted to office by merit rather
^ than with the aid ol someone "pulling"
for them.

y Changes
?_? x
Ben Woodruff, junior, Sigma- Nu,
would advocate a policy of advancing
the favor of the University with the
legislature. He would do everything
possible to have a football team known
ill over the country.
Geniveve Reynolds, a freshman in
the School of Journalism, was in favor
of firing one-half of the faculty.
She said, "I would employ a man for
his teaching ability and not for the
string of degrees he has tacked onto
his name. I would try to attract a
type of students to the University who
would benefit the institution after leaving
it."
Some of the men in the class remarked
that Ethel Galloway, a junior
who takes an active part in campus
activities would soon make of Carolina
a girls' school. She would have a
new dormitory, voluntary physical education,
inter-collegiate sports for the
feminine portion of the student body;
she would have voluntary attendance
of class, and do away with half of the
faculty.
W. H. Farnum, a junior taking journalism,
would attend every chapel exercise
if he were president and would
try to put some life and interest into
the procedure.
Allen Ashly, president of Phi Sigma
Kappa, is one man who would keep
all the faculty. He would try to think
up a new scheme of providing an income
for the University. He would
attempt a bigger and better School of
Journalism, getting the money for this
from the contributions of periodicals
throughout the country.
Dorothy Byrd, a junior in the
School of Journalism said she thought
all the opinions that had been stated
were fine, and that she agreed with
them all. She added, "I would change
the methods of teaching in the class
room in a way to develop the personalities
of the students. I would
allow them to take the courses they
choose, but would advocate an emphasis
on fine arts."
After the discussion, Colonel McKissick
remarked that he considered
it most unusual that no one had expressed
p desire for abolishing examinations,
nor for a student activities
building.
Ben Woodruff. said, "If we were
presidents there wouldn't even be a
squirrel left."

Gather In Meet
More than 100 delegates attended^
he annual meeting of the South Atantic
Modern Language Association;
which met at the University on last
Friday and Saturday. The associa- i
ion, of which the University of South.
Carolina is a member, is made up of

The convention officially opened on
Friday night with Dr. E. J. Erwin,
jrcsident of the organization, prcsidng.
An address of welcome on thej
>art of this school was given by Dr. -i
N. S. Currell. The feature of the program

ury," by Dr. H. Carrington Lancaser
of the faculty of Johns Hopkinsj|
University.
The meeting Saturday morning was
jiven over to the election of new oficers
and Dr. N. A. Goodyear of ;

According to Dr. Francis Bradley,
