Morse And Rubin Win
Declaimer's And Debater's Medals
Awarded After Lively
Contest
Vivian Morse and Ilynian Rubin
won the declaimer's and the debater's
medals, respectively, last Tuesday night
in the Euphradian hall after a lively
contest. These medals are awarded
annually by the society. Morse, a
freshman in academic school, delivered
a speech on Kmmett, and Rubin, a
senior in the school of arts and
sciences, refuted the much discussed
query that "The Nations should agree
to prevent the intcrational shipping of
arms and munitions". Others competing
in the contests were James
Lynch, Frank Jordan, and Joseph
Cohen. All of the contestants in declamation
will represent the Euphradian
in the Inter-society contest to be
held the latter part of May.
G. Stanley Bryan, Robert Dunaway,
and James Thompson, members of the
Clariosophic society, served as judges
for both contests.
An amendment to the constitution,
proposed by James Lynch, came up
for third reading and was passed. The
amendment reads, "No member of the
society shall be eligible to run for office
whose electoral qualifications do
not conform to that part of the constitution
which provides that a member
of the society is a qualified voter only
when he has attended during the semester
three meetings exclusive of receptions
and meetings for elections."
The election of society officers and
members of the debating council will
be held on Tuesday, May 14.
Will Montgomery and George
Rogol were initiated into the membership
of the society.

It must have been a thrill?in fact
we are positive it was a most overwhelming
sensation, when two co-eds
at Syracuse University (Syracuse, N.
Y.) tripped along the corridors of the
anthropology department and ran
smack up against a five-foot alligator
which had escaped from his cage.

EARTH TREMORS
RECORDED HERE
Although the recent earthquake in
the Japanese Islands was more than
six thousand miles away, the seismograph
here very clearly recorded the
disaster, according to Dr. A. C. Carson,
professor of physics.
1 he machine is enclosed in a brick
underground room underneath LcConte
college. Karth movements are
recorded on a roll of white film, which
is revolved by an electric current. Two
films are constantly moving under a
needle, which makes an impression on
the film when irregularities in the
earth's course occurs.
1 lie room is kept in total darkness,
except for a red lamp which does not
affect the recording.

"The Terrible Meek" Is Considered
Contribution Toward
Peace By Author
"The Terrible Meek^" a one act
stage play written in a significant form
for three voiccs, will be presented at
Vesper's Services Sunday night at
7 o'clock in the chapel, according to
R. G. Bell, executive secretary of the
Y. M. C. A.
The play was written by Charles
Rann Kennedy in Holy Week, 1911,
and first produced in New York City
during Lent, 1912. When first presented,
copies were sent to mAarchs,
presidents, and statesmen of various
countries. It was banned in London,
Berlin, and St. Petersburg (now Petrograd.)
Since that time it has been
performed, broadcasted in churches,
colleges, theatres, thousands of times,
all over the world. It is even done in
Chinese.
The author considers the " 1 errible
Meek" a contribution toward the
peace movement, and therefore takes
no royalties upon the performances.
The cast will consist of Miss Iva
Gibson as the peasant woman; Sam
Cartledge as the Roman Soldier and
Wilson O. Weldon as the Roman
captain. Mrs. Reginald Kramer will
direct the play.

Grand-Daughter Of Former Professor
Presents Bust To
University
A bust of Dr. Francis Lieber, one ?
time member of the university faculty, y
has been presented to this school by
his granddaughter, Miss Mary Lieber,
according to Dr. Edwin L. Green,
professor of Latin.
Dr. Lieber resigned the post here be- 1
cause of his unpopular sympathy for 1
<
the abolitionists. 1
The bust is made of plaster, coated
with metal. The bust has been placed <
in the library. j
Miss Lieber recently visited the
university from her winter home in i
Charleston. While here she examined 1

guest of Dr. Green and his wife. ,
Glenn Makes Index
Of Historical Volumes '
Miss Bess Glenn, librarian for the
South Carolina Collection of the Uni- 1
vcrsity library, is making a cumulative
index of the five volumes of the
proceedings of the South Carolina
Historical Association. The index,
when complete, will be printed and
bound in with the fifth volume.
This will not only make the contents
more valuable, but it will also
increase the popularity and the usefulness
of the volumes.
