State i Gridiron Duel Holds Spotlight Exhibitions Will Represent State In Its Many Phases; Entries Pour In With the shouts of vendors and the clatter of amusement concessions the sixty-fourth annual State fair will open its doors to the public next Monday morning for a week which fair officials predict will be the most successful in the history of the fair. While the interest of University students will center around the "classic of classics," the Clemson-Carolina game, there will be a wide variety of exhibits and concessions that will attract them to the midway and the exhibition buildings. This year the fair officials are attempting to have an all-South Carolina fair and professional "ribbon snatchers" from out of state will be excluded. Entries have been pouring in and it is expected that competition for the various awards will be keen. Amusement concessions have been taken over by the Model Shows of America which has been traveling throughout the country since its opening at the Great Canadian National exhibition at Toronto this spring. There will also be a wide variety of wheels and other "take-a-chance" machines. The grandstand program this year will be conducted by the fair association and a large troupe of entertainers has been obtained. Music for the grandstand events will be furnished by the University band under the direction of Professor George Olson. Paul V. Moore, secretary of the association, said, in making the announcement concerning the band, that this move was taken in line with the desire to have an all-South Carolina program. Fair week will feature two football games and a polo game. On Thursday at noon Carolina will meet Clemson in their , annual battle and Friday New Brookland-Casey high meets Sumter high. The polo match will be an innovation and will be played Saturday between team of the 118th Field Artillery of Savannah and the strong Camden aggregation. These teams have met four times already this season and each team has won twice. Saturday's contest will be the deciding match in the series. Most of the fair buildings have been renovated during the summer and the grandstand has been repaired. There has also been an improvement in park / _ nig iaciuues. The daily program that will be followed will be the same as that used in past years. Monday will be "opening day," Tuesday will be "judging day," Wednesday, "veterans' day," Thursday, "college day," Friday "childrens* day," and Saturday "closing day."

Freshman Quiz Results i Completed This Week j Reports of the results of preliminary j tests given to all new students at the beginning 6f the fall semester will be . completed this week and is issued to the faculty and administrative officers of the University. The tests which arc given by a committee of whidh Professor W. C. McCall is the chairman include for the freshmen, a psychological test, an English test, and a mathematics training - test, and for the transfer students the [psychological and English tests. The tests emphasize the general scholastic attitude instead of speed and are graded by comparative ratings. These tests are not entrance examinations but are used to advise students on courses and to give professors more insight into the ability of the students than the high school transcripts make possible. Students wishing to know their standings on the tests should consult R. G. Bell. tr. . P., i. . articles has a number of notices to present to the students. Found: a fraternity emblem. See Mrs. Moon.

Mills Directs Work Large Section Of Legare College i Road Is Prepared By State * Highway Department A new base for surface treated roads, something entirely novel and revolutionary, and which might prove a big 1 factor in reducing the costs of building and maintaining the highways of the state if it proves practicable, is being experimented with at the State Highway Laboratory directly behind Legare College. This new base is a mixture of plain, ordinary dirt, Portland Cement and ( has in it just enough water to hydrate the cement. Surface treated roads (roads whose surfaces arc composed of a mixture of ' tar and rocks) were first used in this state about 12 years ago. They have proved increasingly popular. The greatest trouble has been to find a suitable base for these highways. Mixtures of top soil, clay, sand and even marl have been used. Some of these materials have to be hauled as far as four miles. They have also tended to raise the cost of maintainence and to shorten the life of the roads. The new idea for this was advanced by Charles H. ^Moorefield, State Highway engineer, about nine months ago. The laboratory, whose personnel numbers several University of South Carolina alumni and engineering students, immediately started to work. Under the direction of W. H. Mills, a mixture of the proposed base was placed, in the form of narrow slabs, in the road leading to the rear of Legare College. When the nine months period was up, the experiment was judged successful enough to warrant additional tests. I Representatives of the Portland Cement company were so impressed that they offered to give all the cement that would be needed for further experiments. Accordingly, a large place in the Legare College road is being prepared. Mr. Mills plans to put in the new base and then surface treat it so that a definite test may be had. If this test is successful, which can be determined in about six months, then a section of one of the highways around Columbia will be prepared in the way. * THE R. L. BRYAN CO.

James M. Black, the editor, and his staff have sent the copy to the publishers and announce that in the first number original jokes and humorous verse will be featured. The magazine was omitted this year from the list of those activities supported by student activities fees and will be published by means of private subscriptions. Only a limited number of copies will be printed and only those who have subscribed will receive copies which will be issued from The Carolinian office in the basement of the building which contains Dr. R. K. Fos ter's office. Copies will be placed on newstands in Columbia, Charleston, Greenville and Florence. The magazine will be the same size and quality as last year. Under the editorship of Frank M. Durham, Jr., for the 1932-33 session, a number of interesting ideas were used for the issues. Among these were: "The Football Issue," the Christmas Issue," "the Mother Goose Issue," "the Black and White Issue," "the Campus Literati Issue," and "the June Issue." The Carolinian is an institution on the University campus and the editors are trying by means of subscriptions to keep it from disappearing from the list of publications here.
