BIG ATTRACTION COMING TOI TEXTILE HALL. The management of Textile Hall t t desires to adlress the people of the Piedmont section through the col umns of the newspapers and requests that this statement be carefully read by everyone. Textile hall is an expensive build ing to maintain. It represents a large investment value to begin with, and the cost of keeping it in proper condition, paying taxes, insurance and all of the other outlays ifici dent to a public building total a large sum. We must have the support of the citizens of Greenville and the sur rounding counties. We do not mean to call on anyone for subscriptions or donations, but if this magnificent building is to be preserved and main tained as a center for the various ]rg activities of the upper Caro lina the people must come to the en tertainments which ar3 provided therein. It should be noted that occasion ally the hall is rented to indic iduals or groups for entertainment other than professional. These are usually or some charity and the cause is al ways a w..rthv one. These, however, should not be confused wits. lhe at tractions otYcred by us which are in every case carefully selected and thoroughly advertised. We will soon put onI a hxing exhibition. It will be different from anything ever seen here, in that there will be scientific contes:s be tween train ?d boxers and nothing of the free-for-all, rough-and-tumbke character about it. We have such an exhibition now under considera tion, and if it is supported we will in time bring some of the best known pugilists to Greenville. Thse box ing exhibitions will be given strict. ly under th1e direction of the Athletic Commission recently appointed by City Council. We also have arranged to bring t< Textile Hall this winter the two mos remarkable d: ers in the world, Ted Shawn. who comes with his own pian ist. and assistants on October 27tl and Madam Anna Pavlowa who come, with her Russian Ballet after the New Year with a company of ser enty-five. Ted Shawn is the founder witi Miss 'Ruth St. Denis of the celebrat ed dancing institution known a "Denishawn" in California. To sad he is the foremost man dancer in the world may be to challenge critician because there are a few who may be out equals, but certainly he is with out a "superior, and he draws thous ands of people at every appearance Mr. Shawn will demonstrate th< modern art of dancing in a way thai will be entirely newv to thq majority. of our people. Madam Paylowa is the moderri Greatest sport you kn * 'tpull out your maki papers and some Prii !Albert and roll up a ci, rette!

She has . symphony orchestra of about twenty tive musicians who play the selected' music which is used as her accom paniment, and she has a large group of beautiful girls and accomplished young men who take part in the dra matic part of the entertainment. Both of these dancing features are wonderfully beautiful. They are it lusionizing. There is nothing to be compared with them. You could see no better in any of the capitols of Europe. In music Textile Hall this winter offers kubelik, one of the greatest violinists in the world ranking with Ysaye, Kreisler, Zimbalist, Ilman and others. For singers we have booked Riccardo Martin for November 2nd. Miss Anna Case, one of the most beautiful women on the concert stage today comes about March 1st. It is rarely we have the opportunity to obtain a Metropolitan star and Greenville is to be congratulated on this effort. We have also been most fortunate in securing another fam ous leader of the Metropolitan stage, Miss Marie Rappold, who a few years go was considered by Cazza, the manager of the Metropolitan Opera 'louse, as the most accomplished dramatic soprano in the world. Her name is known to every music lover n the country. Another New York attraction is the great harpist, Salvi, the only liv ing musician who has turned away people from the. coliseums of the North and West. He is the possessor of the most beautiful harp in the world, being % a golden instrument which it required four years to build. It is the largest harp in existence and his playing it is said by the New York press to be the most marvelous thing ever heard. There will be no series of concerts in Textile Hall this winter. Each concert will stand on' its own merits, and the box office will be open one week in advance or more to each attraction. Textile Hall is now offer ing these splendid entertainments to the people of Greenville for the sea son of 1921-1922. If, when the re serve seat sale is open, patrons buy one or more seats, it means that we shall be encouraged to bring other attractions later on in the season. If you do not use the seats you take, give them to some friend or rela - tive who will appreciate the courtesy highly, and you will have given us r substantial assistance. Be generous in your support. If you can afford it, buy tickets whether you are cer tain you can use them or not, and urge everyone you Ae to fall in line. We welcome criticism, and will ap preciate letters or suggestions that will help us make Textlie Hall popu lar. We have tried this season to Ioutstrip all others in point of variety of entertainment as well as quality. ITe' 4le Hall Corporation.

Mili tary Academy at West Point. The schedule of the Clemson Col. lege football team has been announe ed and in keeping with Coach Stew art's policies some big teams are to be played. Of ispecial interest to Clemson alumni will be the opening game of the season, that with Centre College, at Danville, Ky., October 1. A game with Carnegie Tech at Pitts-' burg is pending. This game is on the schedule two days after the Citadel game at Orangeburg, so there is some -doubt as to whether it will be played this year. Stewart, however, may arrange the dates. Next year Clemson will open its season with the United States Mili-I tary Academy at West Point. That is in 1922. Coach Stewart's policy is to schedule two or three big inter sectional games each year. His re cor'd gives him prestige and with it the team acquires prestige. With the exception of Centre and Car negie Tech the other teams will be among thos: played last yeai'. The 1921 schedule follows: October 1, Centre College at Dan ille, Kentucky. October 7, Presbyterian College, campus. October 14, Auburn at Auburn, Alabama. October 21, Furman at Greenville. October' 27, Carolina at Columbia. November 5, Georgia Tech at At lanta.
