Co-Ed Debators
Are Undefeated
Have District Meeting
Rector, Sutton, And Culbertson
Debate Four Southern (
Colleges
The co-ed debating team returned un
defeated from its recent trip to New Or
leans. While away the Carolina students e
debated L.S.U., M.S.C.W., A.S.C.W., and v
Howard College.
It was a very'eventful trip according to a
the victorious team, which is composed of
Sara Rector, Mary Sutton and Mary 3
Culbertson. Mardi Gras was in full- a
swing while the trio were in New Or
leans, but other features of the old city
claimed their interest too. Among the j
spots of historic interest seen by the co
eds were the old Jesuit cathedral, the old
French market where no English is
spoken, curiosity shops, and the old ceme
teries and vaults.
At Baton Rouge they visited the grave
of I-lucy Long and went through the five
million dollar capitol that he had built.
Later the trio crossed the line into Flor
ida and took some snap-shots.
The debating group was cordially en
tertained by the colleges at which they
debated.

The War Department's R. 0.- T. C.
xpansion drive is still being promoted
igorously, but on January 14 it was
iven at least a temporary set-back
t the University of Texas, where the
largest faculty meeting in several
ears" voted five to one-154 to 31
gainst the establishment of an en
ineering R. O. T. C. unit.
In other places the drive is being
dvanced with greater success. On
anuary 18 the Board of Trustees of
)hio University, Athens, Ohio, voted
a favor of accepting the War Dc
artment's "gift horse," while sim
larly favorable action has been taken
y a number of Catholic institutions
ncluding Xavier College, Duquesne
Jniversity and St. Bonaventure Col
ege.
At the University of Texas aggres
ive student opposition to military
raining manifested itself the day after
t became known that the establish
nent of an R. O. T. C. unit was be
ng considered. Religious organiza
ions, political clubs and other in
ependent student groups immediate
y made public their unyielding hos
ility to the proposal.
The Daily Texan, school and com
nunity newspaper under the brilliant
ditorship of Joe Storm, subjected the
>roposal to merciless publicity and ed
torial attack.
The military training issue had been
liscussed ten years ago at the Uni

Marks Last Days
Mentioned In Scriptur(
Present Return Of Jews To Pales
tine Believed To Be Fulfill
ment Of Prophesies
The return of the Jews to Palestin
marks the approach of the "last days
mentioned in the Bible, according to Dr
W. A. Whitesell, professor of industria
chemistry at the University.
The prophecy found in the Bible is tha
the Jews will gather in Palestine in grea
numbers and "Another Kingdom" wil
descend upon them to destroy them, thi
Jews will call upon God to help then
and the feet of Christ will "stand of
Mount of Olives." "Russia is the North
ern Kingdom", Dr Whitesell believes am
she will use the huge air force now bein+
organized and with the aid of one or mor
allies she will seek to destroy the Jewisi
settlement at Palestine because there wil
be one of the wealthiest countries of th
world.
In the opinion of Dr. Whitesell th
Biblical prophecy is being fulfilled, eve1
to the "increase of knowledge" and "run
ning to and fro" propounded by Daniel
This, it is only a matter of time befor
the complete fulfillment of the scriptuic

Brown Banishes Dog
In Winning First Suit
J. Wiley Brown, member of the State
legislature, student in the University law
school, part time instructor in the Depart
ment of English, and part time everything
in general, has won his first law suit.
It was just a case of Brown versus
"Pluto." Poorlittle "Pluto" was the mas
cot of (lear old1 Tenement 26, as the boys
affectionately call it. It didn't take a little
bird to tell Browvn that there was a dog
in the adljoining tenement to his "sancto."
Delving back into the cherished rules
of the 01(1 South Carolina college, Brown
found it unlawful to keep little "Plu
toes" in tenements.
The followving morning, Stokes Goolshy
received a letter from the Marshal say
ing that he must sendl "Pluto" to a board
ing school or something. That afternoon
Goolsby could be seenl playing on the
green with "Pluto." How innocent little
"Pluto" looked. And how sadl Goolsby!
"Pluto" had to go.
And now a gloom has been cast over
"dear 01(1 Tenement 26." "Pluto" has
been shipped to Florence. Shoes, rugs,
and wvhatnots are now alwvays in place in
the tenement, but T 26 ain't what it
useta' be.
Moral: A dog is a mani's best friend if
the Joneses wvill let it be.
