At several times during the meet the score was deadlocked, but the su- pexsority of the Blue Hose in the track •vents proved too much for the visi tors. None of the times were out- jidAUding.

The time, 22.6 seconds, volume of Robinson's poetry was was not particularly fast, but it from 50,000 copies upward. proved that Paul Yearout will be a strong contender'for Clemson’s Ford in the state meet. ^ Bill Clark, Ho.se middle distance man, won both 440 and 880 distances to tie with Brown of Florida for high scoring honors, each taking 10 points. In the longer stretches, Adams and Hu<fson were the mainstays of the P. C. outfit. Adams captur^ the mile with a good lea<l at 4 minutes, 45.1 eeconds. With the fact in mind that the state record is 4:37.2 and that Adams did not seem to be especially pushed, it looks now as if he will give Cardwell of Carolina and Green of Clemson plenty of entertainment on the four laps. *CoJin-Hudson, running for the first time in several weeks, was far ahead at the finish to take the two mile in good time. Both high and low hurdles were won by Schuchst of Florida. Bill Thomp- Bon had trouble regulating his stride for the^220 flfght, but redeemed him- eelf with a first in the broad jump. The remaining first place for P. C. was contributed by Underwood and ... / Jacobs, who tied in the pole vault event with the bar at 10 feetj 6 inches.

But he had the good luck to at tract the attention of Theodore Roose- vet, when “Teddy” was President, and Gol. Hoosevelt saw to it that the young poet was given a job in the New York Custom House, that paid him enough to live on while he was writing his poetry. Somehow, this country is not doing as much-to aid able poets and authors as we used to. England has always seen to it that men who^ could produce real literature did not starve. Ma- cauley, the great poet and historian, was given a five-year job in India at 650,000 a year. Our own Washington Irving was saved from poverty by being appointed Minister to Spains Bret Harte, pioneer of western verse, was consul-general at Glasgow for many years. I think the New Deal would do well to round up all the young, struggling poets, painters and authors who show promise and provide'for their econom ic security while the^r ■‘are proving their talent. prefer the qujet country along the Gulf Coast, an the way from ,Fort Myers to Pe^cola.

GOLDr-Old Mines News from the Phillipines is that the new high price of gold ha$ .started a mining boom there, and this year’s production is likely to be greater than that of Alaska.
