HE had turned out In vigorous form at the stadium in the fair grounds vicinity. Our friend might have credited his mistake to his ignorance, but the results proved self-satisfactory even if he did miss the first day of practice. As the big, brawny giant strolled over the forty-five yard line, he realized that he had, doe spite appearances to the contrary, accomplished something. He didn't quite know what it was, but some how he felt no loss at missing the first day. Instead, he sensed a keen feeling of satisfaction as his en vironment of solitude was inter rupted for a moment by the rustle e of a slight breeze and the honking I of a distant horn. He stood there trying to figure ill Be Discussed ator J. B. Pruitt ;ociety will meet tonight at T James B. Pruitt, prominent _ test speaker. >f the Senate Committee on icio of the Board of Trustees >n the proposed Board of Re I institutions of higher edu cation. The student b'ody is invited to hear the address. For those who may be interested in attending, Eu phradian Hall is located on third floor, Harper College. The organization held its sec ond regular meeting of the semes ter Tuesday evening, February 11. The topic of discussion, led by Dick Breeland, in the Euphradian Senate was "Should South Caro lina Have a Divorce Law?" Con census of members present, in re sponse to the discussion, showed that if the constitution is amend ed to include a divorce law, appro priate legislation should be enact ed to bring about stricter mar riage laws. Constitution Revised The society recently adopted a revision of its 1932 constitution. The former document was revised by a committee headed by Bruce Littlejohn, alumnus and former T Euphradian, and new speaker of a the House of Representatives. L The first constitution of the so ciety was adopted in 1806 at the - time of the organization of that body. Each constitution thereafter bas been a revision of the earlier one. The 1932 paper had been out moded by changes in parliamen- r tary procedure, making the recent r revisions an absolute necessity. 8 C Booster Club Elects New Officers With i I Bill Keith President t Last week the Boster Club held c its weekly meeting and Bill Keith was elected new president for the t spring semester. Other officers in- r cluded: Jo Ann Dellinger, vice $ president; Laura Roberts, secre- T tary-treasurer; Lionel Boylston, s publicity chairman; Ben McGuinn, 1 assistant publicity chairman; and $ Bert Moore, social chairman. C Having as its ultimate aim to boost student spirit and morale, the 1 Booster Club was reorganized last fall to continue a policy that had to be discontinued during the war. Sue Rives, the first new president of the club, relinquished her posi tion at Wednesday's meeting to Keith. New business included the task 1 of raising funds for the organiza- I tion and resulted in the opening< of the Wade Hampton cafeteria for all students after the N.C.U. bas ketball game last night. Hambur gers, coffee, and doughnuts were< sold by the club members and a juke box for dancing was on hand. Of Spring Grid SMeaning Of Co out what it was that gave him thisi strange feeling, and as he turned: to the west stands he noticed the long, somber reflection they cast across the green, and for a second centered his attention on an oldi newspaper which the breeze gently: carried from the press box to theI second row of seats near the main gate. A small dog completely ignor-I ed him as it meandered aimlessly from beneath the stands and stroll ed across the field. Then the player lost himself completely as his eyes tried vainly to follow a rough pat tern of white lines across the green, that had been forgotten with the close of the '46 season. The time clock waited patiently for the next year, as its hands rested on the "last second to play." The athlete began to wonder what this stadium would say should it be granted the power of speech. Would it resent being forgotten during these cold months of wait sportscast Vleet To 0 . .. ~ hree solutions to Carolina's 1947 airport Harbor, Ohio.

Some sow he could visualize the oppo rite stands filled to capacity with oudly cheering gridiron fans. For moment he saw himself with the recious pigskin tucked under his ~rm racing amid the cheers of the rrenzled crowd. He soon came out of his day Iream into reality, and headed to Nard the west gate and his car. And as he turned to look once more, de knew what it was that had come over him as he strolled across the emipty field, and the full meaning sf spirit, tradition, and sportsman ship, that tend to combine the meaning of Carolina, all became a part of him as he looked to the '47 sason with anniration. k.rs Of Sevt rganize A~ c ] - I s e s t t basketball problem come out of I left to right: Center Al Adams, Esterhay.

KSK Spring Sale Of Rat Caps Launched at Saturday Night Game During half-time at the Georgia game Saturday night, Bill Rogers, president of Kappa Sigma Kappa, opened the spring-term sale of rat caps to the field house spectators. Following his announcement, freshmen passed through the crowd vending the caps at one dollar each. Proceeds from the sale of the Garnet and Black caps go to the McKissick Scholarship Fund for worthy students. Freshmen, who have not as yet purchased their caps, are urged to do so at once. Rogers explained that each sale ac complishes a two-fold purpose. "First, it helps boost Carolina spirit, and second, aids in the pro motion of education for outstand ing students." Caps may be obtained by con tacting any KSK member. REMEMBER .. . This is "Clean Speech Week" at Carolina. If you can't express yourself without using profan ity, don't express yourself at all. THINK BEFORE YOU SPEAK I 'n States sociation Group To Seek Wide Coverage E'orUSC Games By WILLIAM A. SPEER Recent action by radio sports asters from 17 stations in South ,arolina, Georgia, and Florida may erald a new era for sports pro rams at this university and on ther campuses in the South At intic region. Last week, radio station WIS xtended an invitation to sports asters from stations in three tates to meet in Columbia for the urpose of working out mutual roblems of importance and inter st to sports fans in the respective tates. The result of the meeting was he formation of what is believed o be the first sportscasters asso iation in the entire South. All Columbia stations, WIS, VCOS, WKIX, and WNOK, are harter members of the new or ,anization which listed its major objectives as follows: (1) to seek ecognition given and receive same -ights given other sports gather ng media; (2) to seek a voice in he selection of all-star teams and >layers; (3) render as much mu ual assistance as possible to each >ther in covering sports events in respective areas; (4) strive to im rove broadcast facilities from some playing fields in this area; mnd (5) cooperate fully with local fficials in cleaning up all sports f gambling and bribery. University officials would profit from the organization in many ways, officials said. Most imme liate would be wider radio cover age of games in which Carolina teams and other state teams are playing out of town. By a united radio organization, these scores could be obtained at night in time for late sportscasters, whereas present facilities do not enable full coverage for games not actually played here in Columbia. Broadcast facilities at the State Fair grounds were sufficient sev eral years ago to take care of the needs of radio men, the sportscas ters said. However, there is an "acute" need for better broadcast ing facilities to handle the increas ed number of radio stations, they stated. The association is to seek this and similar improvements. Every move, according to an of ficial announcement from this group, is being directed to "assure the listening public of the most comprehensive and accurate cover age of sports events in this area." Officers elected at the organiza tional meeting include: Frank Har den of WIS, Columbia, president; Robert Bender, WTMA, Charles ton, vice-president; and Dan Dan iels, WMBR, Jacksonville, secre tary-treasurer.
