ALUMNI ASS OUTLINI For Better S. Carolina Given In Constitutioi Among the purposes of the Alumr Association of the University, as ex pressed in its constitution is the fol lowing: "To promote the development of th University of South Carolina, to mec the needs of the State for an institu tion of higher learning, and to encout age the maintenance of its scholarshi and high traditions." It is characteristic of constitution that their terms be general rather tha specific, so that they may be welde to suit the needs of the people who ar governed by them. But when one at tempts to give application to a con stitution, one must be specific rathe than general. The Alumni Associa tion followed this rule in proposin the following activities: I-Extension Department The University's primary functio is to give proper training to its stu dents and when this is done it ha justified its existence. There is growing recognition, however, tha one cannot afford to cease to study fo the simple reason that he no longe resides on a college campus. There i where the Extension Departmer comes in. Since it is natural that th citizens of our state should turn t the State University for informatio concerning their state, the Goverr ment should not only see that such department exists, but also that expands to meet the continually grov ing interest in the history and affair of our state. II-Research Work Closely associated to the extensic department and quite essential to ti proper function of such departmen is the making of provisions for sciet tific research work. There should I established at least three or four fe lowships for advanced students who. principal occupation would be researc in all fields of peculiar interest I South Carolinians. III-Bureau of Legislative Inform, tion Often questions confront our lef islature which have been acted upc by other states. The legislator usua ly has to rely on his intuition to se tle the question, but if he had an a< curate and complete record of tl result of the methods pursued by oth< states he could intelligently base a opinion on these results. As to matters of peculiar intere, to South Carolinians, there exists i the reports of departments and th heads of institutions, in papers pr< sented before scientific and oth< groups, and in newspapers of gener; circulation, a wealth of material whic would direct a clear light upon th questions involved. All the material necessary for th formation of an intelligent opinio should be assembled, carefully indexe and made available to the members< the Legislature at the Universityi a room devoted to that purpose an for the use of the legislators exclt sively. IV-Department of Political Science It seems an anomalous situation tha the University of South Carolimg establish for the particular purpose c furnishing leadership to the Stat< should not have a department of pc litical science. As a means of fulfillin its historic mission and as a means c rendering the largest service to th people of South Carolina, such a d( partment should be established. Some methods to be pursued in cai rying out the foregoing plans are: (1) Enlisting the interest and sur port of other organizations i.n th State, which interest and suppo: would be evidenced by the passage < appropriate resolutions and present at tion of such resolutions to legislativ delegations. (2) The preparation and dissemin2 tion of proper and legitimate public ity which would present the actts facts pertinent to each of the aims t be pursued.

Don McCallister was born 32 years ag i Karmi, Illinois. During his senior yea i the Karmi high school his athleti bility was such that he was elected car tin of the football, baseball, and baskel all teams. It was in his grammar schoc ays that McCallister got his first taste c Ite South when his family moved' to Al mnta, Georgia, for a short period; bt icy returned again to the place of hi irth. In the fall of 1922, lie enrolled at th iniversity of Illinois where, in his fresl ian year, he played quarterback on th otball team and was a member of th asketball team. This was the time whe arl Britton, McCallister's roommati ad Bo McMillin were clearing the pat >r the immortal "Galloping Ghost," Re range. The entire Illinois first teat as of All-American caliber. In 192 icCallister received his degree c atchelor of Science, with a major i 'hysical Education. After his graduation lie returned to th outh and started a successful coachin ireer at the Palatka high school, i lorida. At the end of two years Mc allister's fame had spread through Floi la and lie was engaged by the Mian igh school to lend aid to their footba rtune. He came through with a teat iat lost but three times in as many sea )ns and whose reputation was natio ide; for the Miami eleven was one c te few high schools in the country thz layed intersectional matches. During the depression of 1931, McCal ster returned to the North. The ca as from the Morrison R. Waite hig hool in the city of Toledo, Ohio. Thi evidence enough of the wide popularit e enjoyed. His short stay there wa ually as brilliant, as Waite was able t Dast of two state championships, an ne of the finest football stadia in ti auntry. McCallister did not confine hi ctivities to the gridiron; he was instri ental in securing the necessary aid ic s construction. The New Deal extended also to M< allister when, in 1935, lie was rewarde ith a post that lie so richly deservei nformed by a cose friend of the v. ancy in the coaching position at the Un ersity of South Carolina, McCaliist< ias chosen over such widely publicize andidates as Matty Bell, of Souther iethodist, and Pooley IHubert, form< Il-American, from Alabama. his s< :ction brought much praise from ti ress; even such notables from his ow rofession as, Ilarry Kipke and Fieldin 'ost, of Michigan, Noble Kizer, of Pu uc, and Bob Zuppke, of his Alma Mate oured in their congratulations.

Manuel Black, a second All-State tackle last year e is still with the squad. g During the season so far, Clemson has won two games and lost three. -R1DR OLD CLEMSON ON THE RAIL i complished this by selecting Frank Pauly, who came with him from Waite high n school, as line coach. The University of Illinois is again represented in the per son of Dutch Stamman who handles the f backfield. The training of the Biddies was intrusted to Ted Petosky, of the Uni versity of Michigan, an All-American end. The method of offense employed by h McCallister differed from that of his s predecessor, Bill Laval, the former em y ploying a modified Warner system with s his original variations. His contention be o ing that a set system of attack is out d moded. The success of Princeton, Pitts e burg, and Ohio State proves this theory. s The Gamecocks, composed mainly of sophomores, show great promise of be r coming adept in this new style of play. McCallister's fame is not limited to the football lield ; he also holds the Ama d teur Golf Championship of Columbia, and was a winner in a State tournament in Illinois. His greatest quality is his personal re r lationship with his players; for he does d not look upon them as marionettes who n transfers his genius from the blackboard r to the gridiron.
