Negro's Condi Subject < J. Sam Taylor Gives Interesting Address; Pinley Speaks On Washington "The living conditions of negroes in the South have been much improved during the last decade, due primarily to the great decrease in colored population," stated T. Sam Taylor of Columbia in an address which featured the regular meeting of the Clariosophic society in the society hall Tuesday night. "The placing of an education within the reach of every Negro has done much and will continue to do much to lift them out of the depths of poverty, squallidness, and ignorance which has kept them from enjoying life as they should and made them a hindrance rather than an asset to the country" concluded Taylor after having reviewed the Negro situation from different angle. The other speaker on the program was Thomas Finley, who took for his topic "George Washington." Finley reviewed briefly the life and works of the "Father of our Country." "If we could only catch a vision of the principles which were the guiding stars of Washington's life and apply them to our present-day problems we would see most of the diffculties in our way dispelled and the curtains of night which have been lowered over our land lifted." h.

The play, Faulk's first, is written in one-act form. Faulk, a senior in the School of Arts and Sciences, has been active in dramatic activities at the University, having been cast in a number of the productions of the Palmetto Players. He has also specialized in dramatics. He is the second student connected with the Palmetto Players to sell dramatic productions. Mrs. Stephen Elliott Puckette recently completed and sold a dramatic version of "Alice in Wonderland." She was prominently identified with dramatic activities when she was at the University last year. u. H. o. Handwriting Revelations By Bonnie Kate Barnes , JAMES McKELVEY This student entertains a lofty opinion of himself; much egotism with culture and ability are indicated. He is self-contained, not being given to extravagances in spending material goods or emotion*. Very, very discriminating in generosity and kindness, invariably he is careful and reticent. McKelvey always does what he thinks is right, lacking fear of criticism or consequences. He possesses a great deal of will power with narrow prejudices and decided views 011 many subjects. He holds to unconventional ideas. His handwriting indicates that he is perverse in his convictions, always insistent upon his own ideas, never tolerating dictation. His handwriting indicates also a secretive mind, inclined to pessimism and suspicion. He possesses a careful and methodical nature, devoid of emotion and magnetism. He is ruled by his heart at all times. In addition to this, his handwriting indicates a disposition that is unbalanced, invariably nervous, erratic, eccentric, and unreasonable. He is neither practical nor logical. At all times lie is the idealist, guided by his imagination and impressions; he is sensitive and incredulous. McKelvey's intelligence is considerably above the average, but it is of the scholastic rather than the original nature. u. b. o.

The plan calls for each executive to edit one issue per year of the other college's paper. ?The Crimson-White. Replies on the mid-year exams at Boston University were extremely enlightening in many respects. According to some of the answers, "In 1G58, the Pilgrims crossed the Atlantic Ocean. This is known as Pilgrim's Progress;" "Theodore Dreiser is a probable candidate for President and the author of "Main Street;" and "The death of Socrates was caused by an overdose of wedlock." ?The Crimson-White.

The student publication of Center College was issued recently with an editorial which called marriage "the stupidest of all institutions."

This game will climax the football season in the1 East as the EastWest game closes the campaigns in the West. Arrangements -are being made to care for the 65,000 people who, it j8 hoped, will be attracted to the Baltimore stadium by such a contest. City officials arc working on ideas which will make Baltimore the perfect host* for the week-end, and it is even likely that the state legislature will change the "Free State" blue laws so that Sunday will be as gay as the rest of the week. A campaign has been inaugurated to select a poster suitable fbr the nation-wide publicity this game will receive. $100 is being offered to any artist in the Baltimore section who can submit an outstanding window display poster before March 1. In announcing that he would add his support to the endeavor, Mayor Howard W. Jackson of Baltimore said: "I am anxious to see a football game of national interest played in the stadium in/ 1932 and have, therefore, sponsored the North-South all-star football game scheduled for Decembtf 10, which should make an outstanding football classic." ^ LOST: Delta Sigma Pi Pin.
