It was by far the most spontaneous and colorful welcome given the Gamecocks this season, and there was a noticeable smile on the faces of Billy Laval and Whitey Rawl as they descended from the train. From the moment news reached Columbia that Carolina had played Auburn to a tie, students were parading the streets and shouting the tilings to passcrbys. Up at the Jefferson Hotel where a play-by-play description of the game was received pandemonium broke loose when the final whistle of the game was blown. The feeling was prevalent everywhere that the mighty Birds machine had at Tast begun to function and people were unstinting in their praise for the entire team. The Auburn contest was the last of the year and the players hung up their uniforms until spring practice, when they will begin preparations for another Conference schedule. V. I. o. Carolina To-day "Hold 'Em Auburn!" As the powerful Gamecock offensive began clicking in Birmingham Saturday there was a notable tension on the part of Auburn fans and supporters. When the Birds rang up their third touchdown and began the last furious onslaught Auburn rooters were shouting frenzedly to the Plainsmen the familiar .defensive battle cry, "Hold that line, hold that line, hold that line!" Recognized At Last "South Carolina has the best liquor in the Union and Alabama the worst," declared John A. May, of Aiken, on a debate with the Alabama delegation before the Young Democratic Clubs of America in Atlanta recently.

Dele- ' gate Over Jim Galloway ^ Whom He "Repudiates" "I repudiate you Jim Galloway, I repudiate you here, now and forever," John Bolt Culbertson, campus political leader and self-styled "King Cotton" ' dramatically told James H. Galloway, 1 prominent student from Lynchburg at I a joint session pf the Kuphradian and Clariosophic Literary societies in the Clariosophic ^lall Tuesday night, just before the election of Culbertson as a delegate to the South Carolina Intercollegiate Oratorical association, to fill the unexpired term of Woodrow Lewis, who failed to return to school this year. The election carries with it the automatic election to the presidency of the association, as under the system of alternating the school from which the president of the association comes, the South Carolina delegate will this year be elected to the office. Culbertson was opposed in the flection by Galloway and a bitter fight between them developed in which personalities entered freely and in which Culbertson exposed the workings of .the' political machine which he has controlled on the campus for the past three years. Culbertson stated that he had worked hard in an attempt to secure the presidency of the Student Body for Galloway. He said that he had given without stint of his time and (Continued on Page 8; Column 2) u. 0. c. Carolinian Art Editor Chosen Geisburg Named By Board; Giles, King And Griffin Made Associates Irving Giesburg of Anderson was elected permanent art editor of The Carolinian at a meeting of the Board of Publications last Monday afternoon at which time other staff vacancies were also filled. Giesburg has been acting art editor of The Carolinian since September and the action of the board merely confirmed his former temporary appointment. Geisburg was art editor of The Camel and Mack last year and holds a similar position this year. He has achieved national recognition for his work in the past few years. He is a graduate student. Associate editors named at the meeting were John A. Giles, W. B. King, and Josephine Griffin. Giles is former business manager of The Carolinian and is editor <>t" The Gamecock, while King and Griffin are associate editor and co-ed editor respectively of the same publication. IT. 8. c.

It will be necessary to drop-this issue because the absence of -Kditor Giles, Managing Kditor Ward law, and Business Manager Broyyn while representing the Gamecock at the South Carolina College Press association meeting in Greenville would make production extremely difficult and the amount of ads docs not warrant putting it out.

The Gamecocks had the ball on Auburn's 25-yard line when the final whistle sounded. As the game opened it looked bad for the Birds, Auburn receiving the kickoff on its 2.5-yard line and marching 77-yards for a score. Five consecutive first downs were recorded in the drive, Phipps,-who led the march, passing to Dupree for the score. Following Auburn's counter, Caroina received the kickoff and got underway with a short-lived drive which carried 25 yards. A 15-yard penalty set the Birds back, however, and when Wolf fumbled the pass from center on fourth down and was tossed for another loss, the Plainsmen took the ball on the Gamecocks' 25. Auburn marched to the 2-yard line but here Carolina s forwards dug in and took the ball on downs. Captain Jimmy Hitchcock, Auburn's All-American halfback, intercepted Mauney's pass to Brown and again the Plainsmen drove to the Gamecocks one-yard mark, but were unable to shove over for the score.

Engineering School The opportunities for post graduate training at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology were described by Or. James S. Tryon, director of admissions at M. I. T., in a talk to the Engineering students and faculty and the Science faculty in Sloane College Monday. Professor Tryon was very favorably impressed by the work in engineering being done at South Carolina. The efficiency of the engineering curriculum is still further demonstrated by the fact that the institution represented by Dr. Tryon recognize all work done here by a former engineering student, R. J. Stoddard, who is now engaged in post graduate work at M. I. T. Dr. Tryon told the students that tuition at Tech is $500, and the estimated minimum $1500 per year. At Carolina the tuition is $40, while the estimated minimum is $315. During his stay here Dr. Tryon was the house guest of Professor Robert S. Suniwalt. u. s. o. A.I.E.E.
