STETSSJHf CSLU0BTE STUDENTS' PUBLICATION OF STETSON UNIVERSITY. VOL. XXIII DE LAND, FLA., THURSDAY, DECEMBER 1, 1910. No. 8 JACKSONVILLE GOES DOWN BEFORE STETSON. With the weather warmer than usual for Thanksgiving the Jacksonville and Stetson boys prepared for the great game. The game was called at 2:30 with large crowds on the sidelines. Chaudoin Hall was not as well represented as we would have like to seen it, but perhaps they'll do better next year when they can't go home. Jacksonville kicked off to Stetson. For ten minutes things looked doubtful until Snedigar made the first touch-down by a long end run. Scan- Ion, Jacksonville's giant full back gave our line some trouble. But he could'nt stop our touchdowns. In the third quarter Scanlon got his and had to retire. Woolery, like Jefferies couldn't "come back." At end of second quarter, or first half the score stood 17—o in favor of Stetson, and not much hope for Jacksonville. At end of third quarter the score was 27—o and everyone knows what it was at the last; 34—o. Everyone of the Stetson men played good ball. Jacksonville worked hard but were simply outclassed. The Stetson lineup was as follows: Center "Babe" Phillips L. Guard "Squee" Wideman R. Guard "Lank" McCaskill L. Tackle "Mike" Murphy R. Tackle "Pinkie" Whitehurst L. End "Time Out" Farriss R. End "Calf" Jackson Back Field—"Orator" Jones, "Rusty" Carter, "Red" Snedigar " Henie" Allen. Subs.—"Farmer" Padgett, "Pelican" Bow, "Jacksonville" Cowles, "That's Me" Magruder. Stetson showed her fighting spirit in this game and showed that she was the equal if not the superior of any team in the State. Stetson's goal has not been endangered this season.

" It will go eight days without winding." "Gracious!" exclaimed the customer, "and how long will it go if you wind it?"

In fact we settled the racial question of the South there last Saturday night. Mr. Garwood opened the program with a resume of the part the negroes played in the prohibition cause. Then Miss Campbell gave us an address upon Booker T. Washington. The address was full of deep dark meaning. However, it was rather short. Then the program manager announced the debate' "Resolved that the negroes should be disfranchised." This was an extemporaneous debate. In fact the whole program was extemporaneous. Several of the members debated on this question. The negative won, the house deciding. Mr. Durrance, Miss Gordon and Rev. Perry Abraham were called upon for negro anecdotes and stories. Miss Gordon recited a negro love letter that pleased us all. Many of the boys were seen taking notes. Doubtless they will be greatly aided by this course in letter writing. Mr. Durrance then took the floor; that is to say, he took his stand upon the floor, and amused us for a few moments with some darky stories. As usual Rev. Perry Abraham scored a tremendous success in his role of fun maker. His sermons are always hugely enjoyed. Mr. Childers, president and grandmaster of the H. B. Club (ask Childers what H. B. means) defended the rights of the white race in the debate. T arose with great alacrity To offer her my seat. 'Twas a question whether she or I Should stand upon my feet.
