Johnson featured the gathering. _ Richard Gillespie, Atlanta, was ‘elected president of the Georgia as- Bociation; Snoqks Dunlap, vice-presi dent; and Walker Combs, secretary- treasurer. Mr. Gillespie is pastor of Rock Springs Presbyterian church, Atlanta. Among the approximately 100 peo ple present at the banquet were alum ni of P. 'C., PresbytCTian ministers, parents of P.

Farm Loan Conference Another topic which has aroused a great jdeal bf discussion here-4s the question of the position of the big in surance companies. It is regard^ as somewhat unfortunate that this should have been injected into parti san politics in the heat of the cam paign by the remarks of the Republi-. can candidate for vice-president, Col. Frank Knox, to the effect that if the present tendency toward inflation continued everybody’s life insurance policies or savings bank accounts would be reduced in value. The unfor tunate part is that this has been taken, in uninformed quarters, to mean that Mr. Knox believes that the insurance companies and the sav ings banks are not in a sound posi tion. President Roosevelt’s summoning of seven life insurance presidents to the White House was not a result of Col. Knox’s statement. The invitations for them to discuss the whole insurance- situation had gone out before the vice-presidential candidate’s speech. What Mr. Roosevelt discussed with the insurance men was mainly the subject of mortgage loans, especially on farm properties, in which a high peixrentage of insurance company in vestments are made. It was an explor atory talk for the purpose of seeing pens when they reach Columbia? Is there too much social life? Is there anything lacking in the coaching staff? Something is wrong but the diagnosis is, hard to make. Billy La val couldn’t remedy it. Coach Don McCallipter has had little success thoogh-' he - has* vrorked 'tire lessly with his team. To see the I team one gets tfie impression that it s.hould be one of unlimited strength but to see them in action, the im pression gotten is just the opposite, except against teams that are great ly* lacking in reserve strength. This reminiscing isn’t 'supposed to take any c^dit from V. M. I.’s well bal anced team of this year nor of Clem- son’s team of last year, for they were and still are, good. It is yet too early to foresee a disastrous season for the Gamecocks, but that,is just the appearancj»3 if something does not take place. Should the team be gin to coordinate a successful season can still be had by Carolina. P. C. is back at‘home after a good but unsuccessful battle against a very strong Georgia T^h team. The Techsters are one of, if not ’ the strongest teams in the nation and are already holding high hopes for a trip to the Rose Bowl. It is no re flection on the Presbyterian team to be. decisively beaten by a team such as Tech. The Blue Hose are to en joy a week-end ~bf rest from battle this week but not a rest from prac tice. Coach Johnson is drilling his tfam daily to iron out the kinks in his machine. This rest period ‘ will allow the injured to be in shape for what we hope will be a successful remainder of the current season. The continued good punting of Cap tain Jacobs leaves “Coach” with liU tie worries in this department. some sort of an agreement upon keep ing loan levels at"a reasonable rela tion to the easing power of farm properties, rathir than on the basis of their possible sale value. It is generally recognized that a great deal of the farm mortgage dif ficulties in the West have their roots in mortgage loans made on the high ly speculative values that prevailed during the early and middle 1929’s. The Tkfdnoihic Situation It is not known that the subject of inflation was discussed by the presi dent and the insurance heads. It is being discussed, though, by thosq con cerned with the economic future. And it is known that the system under which the government has been mak- ing lfu>n« frnpi in increasing^ of bank credits beyond the present ability of bi^iness to uti lize >sach credits profit^ly. When a bank takes $100,000 of govf ernment . bonds and in effect opens a checking acco.unt for the government to the dollar value of the bond pur chase, that m|ans that new money, in the form of bank credit, has been cre ated. This new money is cheap money, in the sense that there is more of it than there is a current demand for, and cheap money always' nteans high prices. There is nothing in the present sit uation to indicate that this form of All doubts to the question mark hovering around the Purple Hurri cane of Furman University was r<- moved and optimism took Its place after their initial tilt with Wofford last Baturday. The Hurricane show ed an aggregation equally as power ful as the team .that last year won the state championship. A real test is in store for Furman this Saturday when they meet the University of Georgia. By comparison of previous results and with a knowledge of .the Furman spirit, 1 wouldn’t be sur- prised to see a closely contested game, and not greatly surprised Furman would come out on top. but to mention the outstanding ones it would be unfair to forget the great defensive play of Erskine’s Alex Gettys. This great end played a marvelous game against Citadel, holding the Citadel Bulldog at bay during the most of the afternoon. Gettys is certainly headed for All- State honors unless misfortune comes his- -way*. i:Berry^ Lawtoa,. and Sand*, ers were outstanding in the game with V. P. I. although they did a lot of fumbling. King and Scott were up to their form of. last year and were directly responsible for the de cisiveness of Furman.’8 victory over Wofford. Jacobs of P. C. stood out in Atlanta by his fine punting against the powerful Georgia Tech eleven, and several linemen in the Blue Hose forward 'wall acquitted themselves highly.
