New Officials Will Begin Work Next Week

TIGER VARSITY SMOTHERS FURMAN FIVE

At a recent meeting of the senior numbers of THE TIGER Staff, the following men were elected to serve in editorial and managerial capacities for 1934: Editor-in-Chief - - W. L. Leverette Associate Editor - - -P. H. Latimef Managing Editor D. A. Barnes Managing Editor - - - W. C. Cobb Athletic Editor ----- J. Sherman Asso. Athletic Editor - M. S. J. Blitch Asso. Athletic Editor - - - G. Chaplin Y. M. (C. A. Editor - - W. J. Burton Exchange Editor ----- F. R. Her Feature Editor - - - - A. S. Thomas Feature Editor ----- R. B. Eaton Business Manager - - - - J. F. James Circulation Manager - - - WJ. B. Perry Asso. Cir. Manager - J. R. Hutcheson

Thesce men will take complete charge of the paper beginning next week.

Leverett, the newly elected editor- in-chief, is from Columbia, S. C. He has serwed on the staff since his freshman year, and last year acted in the capacity of athletic editor, a position usually held by a senior. It is also interesting to note that he is the brother of P. B„ Leverett, Clemson alumnus, who edited THE TIGER while a student here.

Latimer, associate editor, is from Brunswick, Georgia. He possesses -* the characteristics of making a reliable consciencious assistant to the editor.

James, business manager, is from Sumter and is another man who has been on the staff since his freshman year. He possesses an excellent sense of business values and will be of un- told value to the organization.

Perry, circulation manager, has also been on the staff since his freshman

■ year and naturally knows his duties veil; he is not only an outstanding stident, but takes a large part in all outside activities.

I:- might be said that THE TIGER is extremely fortunate this year in naming- as its new athletic head, Joe Sherman. Sherman has had much actual practical experience in newspaper won't, and is at present engaged as. sports correspondent for an Ander- son newspaper.

There are quite a few other men on the staff who possess certain qualifica- tions and ability which will make them invaluable to ,the editor, but space pre- vents naming ;hem here.

It might be loted that the personnel of next year's .staff is being increased in number over that of the past year. The fact that THE TIGER has a larger number of good men than usual this year should be an added factor in the success of the paper for the next nine months. GLEE CLUB TO SOON BEGIN REGULAR PRACTICE

GATORS DROP TIGERS; FIRST LOSS OF YEAR

M egg in son and Davis Win Bouts for Tigers

On their recent visit to the "Sun- shine State" Oaptain Heffner's boxers chalked up their first engage- ment on the "Red" side of the ledger. So far this season the Ben- gals had. won two engagements but the Saurians halted their victorious march by a margin of two bouts. Out of the card of eight fights four went to Florida, the Tigers won two, and the other two went four rounds each to draws.

Oaptain Megginson landed heavily with his right in the third, round to win a decision over Pierce of Flori- da in the middleweight class. The final gong of the flght found the Florida man still "taking it" but nearly gone. Davis won the other Clemson victory with a decision over Bilinski in the heavyweight division. Megginson and Davis are still undefeated.

In the bantamweight encounter Barnett took a decision from Tommy Lide. Harris, of Florida, took a decision from Crow after three rounds of fierce mixing. In the wel- terweight class Williams and Ban- nister traded punches in the fea-

BOWERY BALL TO BE A ROUSING AFFAIR

Senior Dancing Club Presents Annual "Rougn House"

STUDENTS ALL-CAMPUS BIBLE CLASS STARTED

Be Held Each Sunday Morn- ing at 10:30 in Y

Auditorium

The college glfe club, which had a very successful season last year, will begin practicing sometime in the near future. Last year the club really accomplished something, and it is hoped aid expected by everyone that they vill even have a more successful se son this year. The practice will probably begin next week.

A recent survey shows that less than 100 men attend Sunday School cere.

The Y. M. C. A. is anxious to do something to increase this attendance and to this end is planning a large class to meet in the auditorium of the Y. each Sunday morn- ing from 10:30 to 11:20. The plan is to invite only such men as are not attending any Sunday School now.

The schedule for the next eight weeks is being made out and it is hoped that any who are interested in this work will be of assistance by not only attending this class but by urging others to come with you.

Suggested leaders include: Dr. Sikes, Dr. Daniel, Rev. Mr. S. J. L. Crouch, Rev. Mr. J. O. Smith, Rev. Mr. Capers Satterlee, Rev. Mr. J. K. Goode, Theo Vaughan, and several professors.

There may be some objection to having this class but it win /be tried and it is hoped that it will be a success. If it does not meet with the approval of the ministers or does not meet a real need on the campus, it will be discontinued. However, the Y hopes it will he a most helpful way of keeping boys interested in Sunday School while they are at Clemson.

Much attention has been aroused concerning the annual Bowery ball which will be held at the Field House, Friday, February 10. This unique and novel dance, which was inaugurated at Clemson in 1930 to supplant the mid-winter prom, is to .be sponsored by the Senior Danc- ing Club, under the supervision of the Central Dance Association, and quite a contingent of "beautiful girls is expected to be present at this gala affair.

A different plan has been formu- lated this year in which a colorful cabaret scene is to be exhibited, and if suitable arrangements can be made, the dance will be held in the form of a floor show.

Music is to be furnished by the Jungaleers, and according to Scha- chte, director, a surprise in the way of novelties and skits is to be expected.

Although admission to the ball does not stipulate a Bowery costume, all who attend are ardently enjoined to wear some sort of a "conventional" dress.

EIGHTY MEN OUT FOR PUCES ON PLATOON

Juniors Begin Competition for Places on Exhibition Unit

According to Cadet Colonel Mor- ris, the prospects are bright for a crack Junior Platoon. Beginning this week regular drill periods are to be held. Approximately eighty men are out for this platoon and these cadets are showing plenty of

.' ability and willingness to drill. Sev- eral new movements nave recently been practiced.

Sometime ibefore camp a leader is to be elected iby the members of the platoon. It will be necessary tc reduce the outfit to five squads. This elimination of 30 men insures plenty of competition for places in the platoon. The boys are looking to camp because they have every intention of out-drilling this year's Citadel Platoon.

WELL-KNOWN ARTIST DISPLAYS PAINTINGS

Original Oils of G. Thompson Prichard at Riggs Hall

, The Department of Architecture takes pleasure in announcing a se- lective exhibition of the work of G. Thompson Pritchard. The showing is in the studio in Riggs Hall and will remain hung for a -week from ten until four. The exhibition consists of thirty original oil paintings and admirably shows the varying technique of the artist.

Mr. Pritchard is a New Zealander who now lives In Glenn Allen, Vir- ginia. He has travelled extensively and his canvases reflect the cosmo- politanism of his li*j. His exhibitions have been hung all over the world, the London Times. To- ronto Globe, Melbourne Argue, and New York Herald being equally generous in their praise of his excellent work.

One of the most striking canvases is a scene in Algiers, done in hold contrasting colors. Another is a placid English scene which ap- peals to many because of its natur- alism of color and composition. There are two marines of which .one is particularly fine and shows a full rigged ship sailing through a fog. The bulk of the display is of landscapes of various parts of the world and executed in varying styles and colors ranging from soft spring scenes to bright and colorful fall scenes.

The exhibition is sponsored with the hope of sale of the paintings.


GAGEMEN STRIKE WINNING STRIDE

Defeat Furman and P. C But Lose to Kentucky

CLEMSON MAN ONE OF YOUNGESTIN SENATE

J. S. Thurmond, Active Mem- ber of State's Upper House

While the house claims the youngest South Carolina legislator of all times in J. Frost Walker, 3rd, of Union, the senate has in Senator J. Strom Thurmond, Edgefield, one of the youngest and most active members to sit in the upper house in recent years.

Like "Walker, whose father and grandfather preceded him in the house, Thurmond is heir to a polit- ical tradition. His father, a promi- nent lawyer, served in the Legisla- ture in 1886, and later became Uni- ted States district attorney.

The Edgefield. senator was 2 9 last summer when he ran for the senate and defeated Benjamin R. Tillman, Jr., son of the late Gov- ernor Ben Tillman whom Thur- mond's father used to advise.

Thurmond won 1,838 of 2,350 votes to beat his older opponent decisively. Although he celebrated his 30th birthday before taking his seat, Thurmond still is the youngest member of the 1933 senate.

KENTUCKY Coach Joe Davis' rejuvenated Tig-

er five started on the up-hill grade last week by winning two out of three contests. After taking only two out of seven games the Ben- gals, with their victory over Fur- man and P. C, have raised their average to near the 500 per cent mark.

Wednesday night the Clemsonians met the highly touted Kentucky Wildcats, and came within an ace of /upsetting the Blue Grass Cagers. It was only after a terrific strug- gle that the visitors were able to come out on the long end of a 42 to 3 2 score-

Kentucky led at the half 32 to 12, but the determined Tiger team came back to outpass and outshoot the visitors to make 20 points as compared with the 10 counters made by Coach Rupp's proteges du-. ring the final period.

Johnson Craig, Clemson center, probably played the best game of his career Wednesday and tied for scoring honors with speedy Bill Da- vis, sophomore guard for the Wild- cats. He held Demoisey and Sale, the latter an all-American, to con- siderably fewer points than they have neen accustomed to making.

Diminutive Bill Dillard bounced around the floor like a rebounding ball and. intercepted passes time and again. He accounted for three field goals and one foul shot.

"Frenchy" Demoisey, lanky pivot man for the visiting five, was second high scorer with 10 points to his credit.

SWEATERS CLEANED FREE BY COLLEGE LAUNDRY

On February 2 and 3 the college laundry cleaned all uniform sweaters free of charge. This was volun- tary on the part of the laundry, and is only one of the many examples of the willing cooperation shown by the college laundry to the Cadet Corps. The laundry has been recently equipped with some new cleaning machinery and the work shows much improvement over that of last year.

Iraq, the new Arabian state ad- mitted recently to the League of Nations as a full-fledged nation, con- tains a sect called Yezidis, which worships the Devil.

FURMAN After giving one of the best teams

in America a severe scare, Clemson encountered Dizzy McLeod's Purple Hurricane on the local court Friday night and subdued the Breeze for the first time in seven years by a 31 to 16 score.

The almost perfect shifting defense put up by the Tigers allowed the Greenvillians only three field goals during the game, and. the Pur- ple and White team had to resort to the conversion of free throws for points. They were exceptionally good at foul-shooting and made 10 out of 15 attempts.

Johnson Craig repeated his excellent performance of Wednesday night and held Roper, Furman pivot man, to one point while he him- self made 6-

To name a star on the local team would be an injustice. The whole team clicked as one throughout the contest. Dillard was everywhere, intercepting passes and breaking away for "snowbirds". Dobson was power on the rebound and took the ball off the visitors' goal repeat- edly. Nolan Shuler, despite an in- jured knee, played exceptionally fine ball and held the Huricane

EDITORIAL

TO THE NEW STAFF

THE TIGER Staff of 1933 is through. We have had our share of fun and blame and we pass it on to you, the new Staff, to see what you can do with it. We did not win any prizes for putting out a masterpiece of journalistic art and we offer no alibis.

THE TIGER is the organ of the students of Clemson Col- lege and we hope it will remain so. That is up to the new Staff. i. ;|'ll

The seniors who are turning the managing of the paper over to the juniors are very grateful for the cooperation which they received from those juniors. Without them it would have been impossible to put out the paper.

There were several new positions created this year for men who did good work and deserved a place on the senior staff. There are a number of men who are potentially as capable as these men, but who let others win out over them in the election. We are sorry they couldn't all be "best".

It will be noted that the new editor is not a fraternity brother of the out-going editor. This fact alone should make a number of people feel very elated.

Our election was impartial and the best men received the best places. We hope the same feeling will prevail next year;1

We wish the new staff the best of luck.

A CORRECTION

THE TIGER last week made the unpardonable error of using information from a contemperary newspaper as the source of part of an editorial statement. The editorial was partly a criticism of the conduct of the captain of the football team, who according to several other papers, was on the verge of being expelled for excessive demerits, and thereby injuring greatly the chances of success of next year's team.

We have since found out that the man in question explained off his demerits satisfactorily to those in authority, and is in no danger of being suspended.

If our statement caused him any embarrassment, we are sincerely sorry.

• However, the other two statements in the same editorial stand as originally stated.

It seems that some of our Coker tiamoiselles have become quite peev- ed because of THE TIGER'S refusal to proint some of the heart-rending results of their poetic efforts. The editor of THE PERISCOPE says, "It may be interesting to the editor of the Clemson newspaper to know that their mighty sons are nothing to brag about", Now is that nice? We wouldn't have said that about your "mighty daughters".

Some rather interesting statistics present themeselves in the exchange column of the Tulane HULLABA- LOO. The writer says, "We learn that a recent survey conducted at the College of Emporia shows that the student ibody is more intelligent than the faculty, that they stay at home more, and devote more time to their work than do their peda- gogues". Now what do you think of that? These so-called surveys do disclose many astounding "truths".

In a recent census taken by the EROTHESIAN staff at Lander Col- lege, Wofford seems to be the choice of the feminine hearts; Clemson and Citadel, tied for second place. From these results, it seems that the "Fair Lander Lassies" care little for brass buttons and boots.

Your writer was somewhat as- tounded upon learning that the "old army game", viz. "snatching", is indulged in by the fairer sex. Ac- cording to THE JOHNSONIAN, Win- throp is no different from other schools in this respect. They, too, tell the professors such nice things as: "Oh! how much I enjoyed your course", "Your course was simply wonderful", "I wish I could schedule your course again", etc.

After explaining the methods used by the lassies, the editor of the Winthrop paper urges that the so- called "honey-funking" be curbed and that the girls depend more on their merit than on a "good line" to determine their grades.

MOVEMENT BEGUN TO REBUILD PRES. CHURCH

The biggest reason back of the movement to rebuild the Clemson College Presbyterian church is 3 0 feet long—it is a petition signed by 806 Clemson students including not only Presbyterians but other Protestants as well as Catholics and Jews entreating the Presbyter- ian Synod of South Carolina that the most effective steps be taken toward replacement of this much needed building and equipment.

BUILT IN 1896 The Clemson Presbyterian church,

erected as a simple house of worship in 189 6 and enlarged into a modern well equipped plant in 1931, was burned December 4, 193 2, and the movement toward prompt rebuild- ing 'has been endorsed by the synod of South Carolina which has made an appeal to the Presbyterians of the State to raise not less than SI0,000 for this purpose. The synod's entreaty is that "every member will help in this great enterprise for the sake of our Presbyterian boys at Clemson College."

The Synodical, state body of women workers in the Presbyterian church, has endorsed the action of the Synod and has pledged its hearty support to the movement; and the officers and members of the local church are of course leav- ing no stone unturned to secure the necessary funds.—G. News.

SNOOPS AND WHOOPS

I would point out that to cultivate art, to love it and to foster it, is entirely compatible with those qual- ities which make a successful business man.-—Ot*o H. Kahn.

Did you boys know that Octavus Roy Cohen, celebrated author, was expelled from our dear institution because he couldn't pass an Eng- lish course under Doctor Daniel? And look what he is today. That ought to serve as ample encourage- ment for some of youse mugs what ain't so inclined.

Big Inspection is just around the .corner so the Colonel tells us. Now we've been thinking about that and have come to the conclusion that it may be the same corner around which prosperity has been coming for so many years, and we won't even be bothered with an inspection.

The latest barracks news is to the effect that E. L. Howell, better known to the boys in the council as "Speedy", has just completed all negotiatons toward the purchase of several pairs of new sergeant stripes. Congratulations "Speedy", and may you have the best of luck during the "season", you little ole military devil.

Prosperity must be here. 'Scotty' has learned a new song and even knows the words to this one.

As we said before, someone ought to search "Blubber" Newsome for Gracie Allen's lost brother.

The story goes that during the Spring Inspection the year Bill Ashmore was a freshman, the in- specting officer approached Bill, and in an unusually gruff voice demand- ed, "Where is the balance of your rifle?" "I don't know, sir, came the weak reply, "This is all O'berg gave me".

And of course there is a moral to the above story, jus' like the pne about the cat who lost its tail crossing the railroad track.

If Chester Cobb dloesn't stay away from Winthrop "That big nose" gal" is gonna sho' give him hell. And there's Mamie too, Ches- ter, what would she say?

What would Chapel amount to if we didn't have Harrison Trammel to turn out the lights for us? We never tire of seeing you trip your 'light' fantastic, Trammel, and then too, we realize how much you look forward to this little stunt of yours. We see you, Trammel.

Wihat will be Oscar's reply? How do you like Cleveland, Si-

mon. You got to quit this running around.

Right after exams a gentleman was heard to say that he had the pleasure of eating breakfast with Colo- nel West in Columbia. Shortly after, he left Columbia in his automoDile with Charleston as his destination. About half way down he passed, the Colonel on the way back from the City b ythe Sea. Fast traveling, Colonel.

What about that notice concerning the Bowery Ball? Last year it was a great success. Everyone is urged to wear some sort of a costume. Anything will do. Make it plenty Bowery.

Campus notes: "Pea-vine'' Bane is becoming something of a rowdy-dow- dy. Spaghetti; Sam Galphin missed his school teacher the other night; "Meg" Megginson is still wearing out shoe leather.

Does the one Law School in the state turn out all the legislators?

We see by the newspapers through out the state that "The One Real and Only" Rudy Vallee will play for a concert and a dance at the Township Auditorium in Columbia on February 11. A brass .band and the police department will be on hand to add a martial air to the situation and to protect 'The Croon- er' from his many excited admir- ers.

The law of true art, even according to the Greek idea, is to seek beauty wherever it is to be found, and separate it from the dross of life as gold from ore.— Lafcadio Hearn.

WITH THE ALUMNI Fred E. Armstrong, a graduate of

the class of '16, is now on the faculty of the University of Hawaii located at Honolulu, Hawaii. He is an associate professor of agricultural education.

After his graduation from Clem- son in 1916, Prof. Armstrong received an M. S. degree from the Uni- versity of Minnesota in 1921. Be- fore joining the staff of the Uni- versity of Hawaii in 1926, he was connected with the University of Idaho. He is a member of Phi Delta Kappa and Phi Kappa Phi.

The University of Hawaii is a land grant university with a teach- ing and research faculty of 200 members. Its cosmopolitan student body is composed of 1400 students drawn from many foreign countries, 21 states, and the Philippine and Hawaiian Islands.

Billy Fisher who is a senior at Columbia High was a recent visitor in the home of Jake Woodward. Billy pians to join the freshman class next fall.

On Thursday night, February 9, the old and new Tiger staffs will be banqueted by Captain Harcombe.

Several editors from nearby towns have been invited to be present and give short talks. This banquet marks the ifinale for the senior staff, since at this time the junior staff takes over the publication of THE TIGER.

After College WHAT?

Journalism? Thomas W. Gerber of the execu- tive staff of the United Press says: "Seeking, reporting, inter- preting and distributing news is today a complex business, an exciting profession, a responsible career. It is a field only for seri- ous-minded, clear-thinking men and women. The day of romantic, adventurous assignments is large- ly over."

THERE'S no more "newspaper game." Today, it's a business—

still exciting, but calling for all-round resourcefulness. That's why new<- paper men agree with college men in choosing a pipe as their favorite smjke. A pipe helps a man organizr his mind for clear thinking.

Why did college men choose Edge- worth as their favorite smoking tobacco?* Because it's individual! k blend of fine old burleys that's different.

But the proof of the pudding is in the eating. So drop a lint to Larus 8C Bro. Co., 105 S. 22d St., Rich- mond, Va., and let them send you a free sample of Edgeworth to try before you buy. You'll like it!

SPORTS By M. BUTCH

Joe Davis and his rejuvenated basketeers sprung an agreeable Bur- prise immediately after exams by playing a lot better brand of basketball than they had before exhibited.

Coach Davis shifted his men about quite a bit and each shift seemed to benefit the team to a great extent. Johnson Craig showed qute an adeptness at shooting with one hand by tying in high scoring honors with Sales in the Clemson- Kentucky fray. He continued his fine work in the Furman and P. C. games.

The basketeers finally broke the Furman jinx and they now seem destined to finish high in the State race.

TIGERS-OAMEGOCKS TO BATTLE IN RING

ELEVEN BOUTS ON CARD

Clemson Fighters Determined to Avenge Defeat of

Last Year

; Clemson's pugs are ■ having a very successful season and are fav- ored to win the remaining two matches with Carolina and P. C. Captain Heffner has brought the boxing team to the front ranks in fistic circles and he deserves much credit for his work. The Confer- ence meet is to be held the latter part of February and the Clemson team will send several men to this and we are expecting them to go a good way into the tournament.

Wiith the depression bringing the curtailment of athletics in many schools, Clemson is still pushing forward with all of her athletics.

Early football practice was begun about February 1 and the prospects are much brighter than they have been, pending the return of all the players. The success of the team will depend on the sophomore material to a great extent.

The 1933 edition of our football team will be heavier than those of recent years and it will have a great deal of reserve material. This is one thing that Clemson teams have lacked and this alone should improve the team greatly.

The early practice will last about six weeks and fundamentals will be stressed more than anything else.

The schedule for next year is a pretty hard one, ■ but we are all expecting the Tigers to come out on top in most of their games.

FROSH QUINT WINS FROM LITTLE WIND

Rats Also Defeat Greenville High—Lose to Greer

The Freshman displayed clever sVhooting and fine floor work last Ffriday night to defeat Furman's Frcish five 40 to 28 in a prelim to the ^Clemson-Furman encounter.

This passwork and shooting of both Yteams were fast at times and the ga'.me was not as one-sided as the finiil score indicates. The first half antl the early part of the second period found the two teams evenly ms'itched and they alternated in leadink the scoring. The Cubs displayed a', stronger finish, however, and the closing minutes of tne game found the Little Breeze helpless.

Shores led\ the scoring with 14 points. This j Savannah boy was all over the cou'rt and was the main man in the defensive work as well as in the scoring.

Turner with 11 poiuts was run- ner-up in the Scoring for the night and was also a power on defense.

As a preliminary to the Clemson- Kentucky game the Frosh five encountered GreenWille High and turn- ed 'back the Reaj Electrics by a 35 to 28 score. The freshmen took an early lead, d\ue chiefly to the superb shooting l,of Crawford, and were never headed. The first half ended, with the lirst-year men in the lead, 15 to 9.

The Greenvillians made a determined fight during the second half

The Tiger and the Gamecock re- new hostilities in the Clemson field house Saturday night when the Ben- gals meet the boxers from the Uni- versity of South Carolina at eight o'clock.

The all-star card will list 11 bouts, eight regular and three exhibitions. The exhibitions will be preliminary to the main bouts of the evening.

Both teams are recovering from lickings at the hands of Conference opponents last week. Friday Clem- son lost o to 3 to Florida of the Southeastern Conference while the Gamecocks dropped their match to N. C. State College 4 1-2 to 3 1-2 on Saturday. Last year in Columbia the Gamecocks handed the Tigers their only setback of the season, 4 to 3.

Two of the most interesting bouts loom in the middleweight and unlimited, classes. Captain Bill Meg- ginson, Clemson, meets Willard in a farewell joust in the middleweight class and Footsie ' Davis, Clemson, scraps McManus in the heavy division. Megginson, with three scalps already on his belt this season, stopped Willard by a technical KO in the second round last year. Davis, a 220-pound giant with a forfeit and two slashing victories to his credit, has yet to encounter any stiff competition. McManus has won at least two decisions this season and has gained considerable recognition in Southern circles.

STUDENT REPLIES TO ARTICLE ABOUT CLEMSON

(From the Saluda Standard) Clemson College, S. C,

Jan. 27, 1933 Dear Mr. Eargle:

As you recall, a parent objected through your paper to the cost necessary for a boy to attend Clemson.

I would, appreciate if you would publish the Inclosed article. This article is not written as a reply to the above-mentioned article, but is written to let the people of Saluda County know that the cadets feel that the expenses at Clemson are very moderate for the high standards that the institution upholds. Please do not sign my Iname to the article.

I wish to congratulate you upon the impartiality which you have shown in discussing the many sub- jects printed in the Standard. I trust that you will give this subject like consideration. Thank you very much.

The student's communication fol- lows :

Editor The Standard: In behalf of my college, I wish to

say a few words concerning the institution and its management. Clem- son Agricultural and Mechanical college is one of the most efficient, as well as economical institutions of

but were never able to cope with the Cub attack.

Crawford, flashing forward, was high man with 17 points. Shore with 4 field goals also played well for the locals and was one of the spark-plugs of the Clemson offen- sive.

Kendrick and Anthony were high- lights for the visiting combination, the latter accounting for 8 points.

its kind in the United States. By carefully comparing the expenses of other A. & M. colleges of Clemson's standard, I assure you that the expenses at Clemson are far below those of the majority of colleges.

Although there is a general idea in this state to the effect that the Clemson uniform is very expensive, I wish to state that the cost for clothing during a four-year stay at Clemson is indeed moderate. Ex- cluding freshmen, cadets were only required, to make a deposit of $15.64 for uniform this year. Naturally the majority of the freshmen purchased the complete uniform at a cost of $51.94. For this $51.94 nineteen ar- ticles were obtained. Out of a cadet corps of ahout 1200, there are 1030 that are on the rolls of the R. O. T. C. This entitles freshmen and Soph- omores to an allowance of $10, while juniors and seniors receive enough from the government to take care of their entire uniform cost as well as many other expenses.

The Clemson college COTPS is es- sentially a democratic unit. The regular cadets wear the same uniform and eat in the same dining hall. This tends to smother any tendency towards distinction due to wealth. If a boy wins distinction at Clemson, it is because of some work that he has done well.

We take great pride in our institution. We are rightfully proud of the high standard of work that it is doing at such a reasonable cost. The support that the people of South Carolina have given us is apprecia- ted, and we hope that you will con- tinue to stand back of us.

FRESHMAN COUNCIL The topic that occupied the at-

tention of the members of the Freshman Y Council at their regular meeting Tuesday night was new books for the 1Y Library. Sugges- tions were also made for speakers at future meetings. A very interesting talk was made by Prof. Macormac of the Textile Depart- ment. The subject of this talk was 'A Motto for Life'. The meeting was closed with the Lord's Prayer.

JUNIOR COUNCIL At the meeting of the Junior Y

Council Tuesday night, four new members, Frank Schirmer, George Basha, Bill Howie, and W. O. Maul- din were taken in. A constitution and set of by-laws were discussed but action postponed until a future meeting. It was decided that the weekly publication, "High Road", which has been published by Mr. Aull would be continued, supported by contributions from the council members.

Y. M. C. A. RECEIVES TROPHY Bill Hines of the class of 1921

has given a trophy to the Y in the form of a model of a Chinese boat. Bill is a former Clemson tennis and basketball star and is now living in Shanghai, China. The boat is only partially assembled and a great many parts are yet to be put in place. This will form a good after- noons' fun for these jig-saw puzzle fans and everyone is invited to come down and join the hobby club.

that the cadets really get their money's worth when they go to Doc McCollum's. In addition to buying a darn good penny box of matches, they read all the current issues of Ballyhoo, Hooey, Whiz Bang, and all the other 'literary masterpieces. that he has been wondering for some time what the expression "cut across J. Craig" means. that some of the campus "squaws" are certainly helping their parents through the depression. He never sees any of them "cadalicing" four or five cadets around. that Fred Kirchner is certainly running around with his nose up in the air since he got a desk at the "Y". that you had better wear knee boots when going to Andy Murphy's class. ■ that he would not ride back from Greenville again with Fred Thompson for the riches of Croesus. "Jawbone" Howard must be positively iron nerved. -that Sid Little can't possibly be the little Mama's boy that he pretends. Why he's been to Paris. that now that Fred Hook is on his own in this cruel old world, maybe that waitress will snitch him a sand- witch now and then. i that Denny "Big Blow" Grimes was held up in Anderson recently. Some Romeo relieved him of the heroine at the point of a .45. that mid-year graduation saw the withdrawal of at least three members of the Monte Carlo club. that he would like to know what happened to the love affair that "L. C> Green had on the campus last year.

Did You Ever Stop to Think— that almost all of our needs are

provided for at once by the folks at home ?

of the college's new interest in the grounds around the field house?

that we have a better chance than most millionaires'sons to make good in that we have never had plenty of money to throw away?

that hundreds of persons would be only too glad to get to look at 'Clemson and her campus just to feel the foeauty of it?

that one-half of the year of stud- ies has flown by?

that Mom and Dad are putting off those usual yearly trips so you and I may stay at college?

for 5 or ten minutes on your future life?

that some younger fellow is watching and imitating you and your habits,—By A, Lem Burr.

ture bout of the fights. Williams won after traveling a rocky road. Cobb took the decision from Henley in the lightweight division.

In the lightweight class Blitch carried Peckham, the Florida captain, four rounds to a draw. Many thought that Blitch had the better of the fighting but his opponent's aggressiveness evened the count. Culbreath and Medlin drew in the junior middleweight class.

speedster, Lyles Alley, to three points. Ted Simons and J. W. Dav- is also did well for the Bengals. The former gave an exhibition of fancy diving several times when he made headlong plunges for a free ball.

Adair, with seven points, led the scoring for the visitors, making all his points via the free throw route. He converted 7 out of 9 attempts.

PRESBYTERIAN Saturday night the Bangal bas-

keteers journeyed to Clinton and defeated Lonnie MacMlllan's Hose 3 8

to 22. The Clemson quint lacked the ball-handling and shooting technique displayed in the first two games of the week and led at the half l)y only three points, 19 to 16.

The Tigers played, the same type of ball last Saturday that they exhibited aganst Kentucky in Lexing- ton when the Blue Grassers massa- cred them 67 to 18. The first hair was one grand melee of bad passing and wild shooting. At several times during the gamp, the Presbyterians led the locals and it was not until the last half that the Tigers gained a safe margin.

Ted Simons with 11 points led the scoring. Adams, also a Char- leston boy, shone for the Hose with 4 baskets to his credit.

Tomorrow night, the Tigers jour- ney to Greenville tc play a return contest with Furman.

siders itself fortunate in being able to offer such a worth while exhibition at this time and urges the campus to make every effort to view it even though they may not con- sider the possibility of purchase.

Chesterfields are Milder

WHEN you ask a Chesterfield smoker why that's his brand — he

generally comes right out flat-footed and says . . ."It's because They're Milder!"

So we're going to keep on doing everything we know how to keep them that way.

That's why we look for and buy the mildest and ripest tobaccos we can get. That's why we age them in our ware- houses till they're mellow and sweet.

We believe that even the shredding of the tobacco... and the quality of the paper it's rolled in, have a lot to do with the even-drawing, mild smoke that people enjoy in Chesterfields.

You can bank on this... every method known to science is used to make Chest-f erfield a milder, better-tasting cigarette that satisfies.
