All Homecc I Tren 8- >v-Alumni Re-unite From All Points Prominent Men Address More Than 200 " Alumni At Annual Gathering Home-coming day. proved even more successful than officials had expcctcd last Saturday when more than 2,000 alumni attended the L. S. U.-Carolina football game and about 200, representing every county in the state and from adjacent states, attended a luncheon at the Hotel Columbia, where a number of prominent South Carolinians, including amdng others Governor Ibra C. Blackwood and University President L. T. Baker, ' spoke. The luncheon meeting was presided over by Alumni President George .Bell Tiinmerman '02. "I often wish I were a Carolina alumnus. I really think of the University, more or 16ss, as my Alma Mater. Although I matriculated there it was necessary to leave three weeks later, due to circumstances over which I had no control," Governor Blackwood ^told alumni at the luncheon. The Governor, who is ex-officio chair-'' g man of the Board of Trustees, said ' 0 that the University is the property of := : the people, and that it was here for .O the service of all. Dr. Baker reviewed the accomplish*** mcnts of the University along many ?? lines. He said that the time was J=j rapidly approaching when the University would have to look elsewhere for funds on which to run. He told of co the fluctuations of the funds ^due to hard times, and the injuries of such on the University. "We should expend some of the time and words we use in destructive criticism of the University and its activities in honest effort to get behind it. We should get behind Coach Laval and his team and stick with them win or lose", Thomas P. Stoney *11, former mayor of Charleston, said. He said that ihe Brad-dates of the institution have a right to take an active interest in its activities and should be proud of it. . Christie Benet '98, former United States Senator, reviewed the progress made along athletic lines since the time he was a student and later when he was head cbach. It was in 1902, Mr. Benet said, that the Carolina team, which was exceptionally light but with true fighting spirit, won from a number of big teams and always fought to the last minute. It was this team that brought to Carolina the name "Gamecocks". , Among those present was C. A. Wells *85, of Edgefield, who has not missed an alumni meeting in 30 years. Among other supporters present who have always shown interest in the activities of the University were J. H. McLrire '87, of Chester, and Major Metts of Columbia. Many of the alumni who attended the football game in the afternoon expressed themselves highly pleased with the showing of Carolina against Louisiana State University, realizing that Louisianians were a much stronger team than any Carolina had beaten in former years. Those present at the luncheon from the Student Body were L. A. Williamson, president of the Student Body, John' A. Giles, editor of The Gamecock, J. Frost Walker, editor of T/ie Garnet and Black, and Troy T. Stokes, former Student Body president and house member-elect. u. s. o. Reflects the Life of the University "I advise that you all read The Gamecock because it gives you a vivid and clear picture of life on the Carolina campus", Dr. L. T. Baker, president of the University, told members of the Alumni Association at a luncheon in the Crystal Room of the Hotel Columbia Saturday. Dr. Baker told of the accomplishments of the University in recent years and said that all who wished to keep with Carolina, its activities, its work, its students, and its alumni, should read The Gamecock. v V , \ i ' t A. .A \v.

Say8 Cultural And Historical Atmosphere Could Scarcely Be Finer "The University of South Carolina, lias buildings and grounds which could scarcely be finer in cultural and historical atmosphere." Thus Charles Edward Thomas, of Indianapolis, Ind. writes of the University in a letter to the November 7 issue of Time. Mr. Thomas was induced to write the letter as a refutation to a sentence appearing in a previous issue of the magazine in which the implication was made that a certain Negro college in the South was possibly better equipped and more adequate than some of the ' wl\ite schools. Mr. Thomas also spoke highly of other colleges in the South. The College of Charleston he said was without a peer among city colleges while William and Mary was unsurpassed in architecture. The universities of Georgia, Duke and North Carolina were also praised. , Graduates Are Given Honor From the Medical College in Char' leston comes the news that T. L.
