Jollity and mirth prevailed and the good things to eat were en joyed by all Nvho attended. The class president, Mr. R. W. Scott presided. , . , The banquet committe consisted of Messrs. J. F. Lynch, (chairman), H. H. Hargett, C. B. . Hoke, W. J. Cook, R. Kenedy. The following were the faculty speakers: Messrs. Royster, Wilson, Booker and Bernard. The so-called responses were delivered by Messrs. Wiggens, Stokes, T. B. Gunter and Banks Mebane. Dr. Miras on Book of Job Doctor Edwin Mims gave' the first lecture in a series of lectures which he proposes to give on the Bible as literature, Sunday morning at. Jhalfr past twelve o'clock in his English class room in the Alumni building. The first lecture was concerned with the description of nature, the figura tive language, and the melody and liarmony of the verse found in the book of Job. The second lecture will continue the study of this book of the Bible, and the succeeding lectures, coming at the same hour on Sunday mornings, will consider other portions of the Bible famous for their literary qualities. Twenty men attended the first lecture. Glee Club Delighis a "Fair Audience" With the Aid of Messrs. Sneath, Woollen and Daggett The Carolina Glee Club and Orches tra gave its initial concert last Fri day evening in Gerrard Hall; More than two months', nightly training and practice under the direction of Mj Sneath, Mr. Daggett, and Mr. Woolen went into an unusually high class and enjoyable entertainment. The hit of the program was un doubtedly the quartet with its negro dialect selections. Its pantomine ren dition of 4 The Old Oaken Bucket" was an original idea in encores which took well with the galleries. Mr. Right's clarinet solo was an heartly enchored number. And Mr. .'Sneath ' introduced the personal interest element in his solo number by singing "Love's Twilight," and "I Know Two Eyes," two songs composed by Professor P. H. Daggett. The Orchestra was at its best in "T he Chocolate , Soldier," and ''Madam Sherry," and came in for its full share of applause. The Glee Club was a well ballanced and nicely harmonized body, but its selec tions, save in one or two instances, were stale, and did not meet with the favor of the other numbers. The boys sang and played to a "fair" audience as a consequence of the -February dances.' That circum stance ' must have added a slightly quicker time to the beat of Mr. Dag gett's, head, and a fuller tremelo,to George Sneath's "Rosary". Mr. H. S. Pember, first tenor in Glee Club and quartet, who was called to his home several days ago on ac count of the illness of his mother, was substituted for by Mr. C. T. Woolen who had prepared to serve as utility man in such an emergency. This in terruption, however, may necessitate cancelling the two engagements which the Club has scheduled for Winston and Greensboro, on Friday and Saturday nights of this . week, unless Mr. Woolen can be prevailed on to make the trip. The Club has in mind a more extensive tour of the Eastern section of the State further along in the spring. Twenty-four members of the Univer sity Musical Association participated in Friday evening's performance. This number will be thinned out consider ably before the longer trip is under taken. .. V ' ' ' The Mandolin Club, listed on the program, was not further in evidence. This club will probably be developed in time for the trips, and will add variety to this concert. It is reported that Professor Smith's lectures aTe creating a profound effect far outside the narrow bounds of uni veisity circles. The whole i literary part of the nation, it is said, is begin ning to read American short stories. That Virginia should be responsible for such a revolution is a matter of congratulation for all citizens of the old commonwealth. College Topics.

IIENDERSONVILLE RESOLUTIONS Nat Caitmell to Run " Here is what Coach Cartmell has to say in regard to meeting Robinson : "Recent sporting papers from Eng land have brought news to me of a a challenge issued by the American amateur sprinter, Lawson Robertson, who is now acting as trainer of the Irish-American Athletic Club of New York. In his challenge to the world's fastest sprinters, which was sent to the Manchester "Sporting Chronicle" in England, for publication, Robert son professes to have a desire to run for the sum of 200 pounds, or $1,000. Together with this challange to the world the English papers printed a statement as, having come from Rob ertson, to the effect that I am not wil ling' to run him a race of a distance shorter than 220 yards. ?:. "This statement is incorrect and un fair to me as well as to other Ameri can professional sprinters, as it has led the English to believe that Rob ertson while willing to run is unable to make a match in his native land. "If Robertson is anxious to run me I will sign articles with him for a race for any distance from 130 to 500 yards, for as much money as he cares to get together. The race can be run i. on any; fair cinder track. . The coach has met Robinson three times. In 1905 he defeated him in the hundred. At the Olymphic trials in Philadelphia, 1908, Robinson won the 100 metre dash from him. In the semi finals) at the Olymphic games, how- The Baptists Soak Us Again Wake Forest 38, Carolina JL6. That is all there was to it. The water ba bies simply outplayed us and carted the game away to the ice-house. ; A square deal was our portion all along the line with the exception of the rooting, which to say the least was unsportsmanlike. However con sidering it was the water babies, we'll " .overlook it. - . The first half was about a toss up between the two quints. Each threw five goals, but ' the Baptist gentlemen proved better in throwing touls. They landed five in' the basket to our none, making the score at the end of the half 15-10 in their favor. The water babies came back strong in the second half ar.d we went to pieces. They played beautiful rings around us and as a xesult, six points for us and 23 for them. Final score 386. . ,. ,'"'.. Our bunch was decidedly off color. They lacked a whole lot of putting up their usual , game. They showed plenty of fight' but not enough basket ball. Consequently they gor trounced.
