Clemson College began this morning
with all the seniors present, all the
juniors present but four, and all Of the
lower classes except 20 some OF
whom have asked for an extension of
leave on account of sickness or other
causes. President Riggs welcomed the
students back, as is his custom in an
arnest short address.A feeling of op-
timism prevailed at the chapel exer-
cises.
The regular class work started this
afternoon. There seems to be desire
on the part of all to make the third

the large lot on South Main street
next to the Community House from
Mrs. J. G. Edwards this week and it

ton will be attained.
The cost of the building has not
been decided upon, but it has been
announced that Y. M. C. A. plant
fully adequate to more than care for
present needs will be constructed.
An experienced Y. M. c. A. man

COMFORT IS GIVEN
THE SUFFRAG|STS
BY CHAS. F. HUGHES
Says When Anthony Amend
ment is Ratified it Will Af-
feet Every State in Union

New York, March 23..--Claims OF
anti-suffragists that the Anthony
amendment to the constitution, if ra-
titled, would be ineffective IN states
where state constitutions restrict
suffrage to male" citizens until
such constitutions had been amend
ed, are erroneous, according to an
opinion obtained from Charles E.
Hughes, former Justice Of the United
States Supreme Court, by the Nation
al American Woman Suffrage Assc-
citation. Judge Hughes also advised
the association that in his opinion
claims that the amendment iii any
case would confer only the right TO
vote for Senators and Representa-
tives was equally erroneous.
Pointing to the similarity in YER
biage of the Anthony amendment aid
the fifteenth amendment extending
suffrage to negroes, Mr.. Hughes said:
If the suffrage amendment is duly
ratified so as to become part Of the
federal constitution, am Of the opir-
ion that the amendment will be i'm
mediately selfexecuting and will! rem
der invalid and therefore Ineffective
any existing provision III any state
constitution or statute establishing
suffrage disqualification solely on
the ground of sex. Further, the
amendment, in my judgment, will
apply to all elections and not simply
to the election Of Senators and men,
bers of the house of representatives.

Atlanta, Ga, March 23.-Whether
the state courts or the federal coGrts
have jurisdiction in the fight being
made by the Country Banks Associa-
tion OF Georgia against the par clear
ance rules Of the federal reserve sys-
tenn was the first subject to be argu-
ed at the opening Of the hearing in
federal district court here today.
Should Judge Beverly D. Evans
hold the case to be one for federal
courts, the motion of the sixth dis
trict federal reserve bank for dis
missal of the entire proceedings was
expected to be taken up next. The
petition for an injunction against
the federal reserve systems enforce
ment of it's universal par clearance
rule was regarded as a test case and
counsel for state bankers associa-
tions from other states came here for
the hearings.
The country bankers of Georgia cb-
tanned a temporary injunction in
Fulton superior court here and Judge
w. D. Ellis, of that court after a
hearing ordered the case transferred

ABBEVILLE DEFEATS
GREENWOOD IN DUAL
MEET AT BASKETBALL

After having suffered defeat on
two different occasions, once here
and once in Greenwood, the boys and
girls basketball teams of the Abbe-
vile High School turned the tables on
the local courts Tuesday. The boys
team defeated the five from Green
wood by the score of 20 to II. The
girls whitewashed their opponents 1S
to O. A large crowd saw both games.
The girls had the sextette from
Greenwood completely outclassed,
keeping the ball for the most part in
Abbeville territory. Greenwood got
but few shots at the goal and those
were so hurried that the goal was
never shot. The local six on the
other hand had + ny op. )rtunities to
shoot the goal ard were successful in
a large percentage of tries. The
shooting of Miss Ada Faulkner fea-
tured.
1t is hard to place the best player
on the teams but for the girls we
would give the lions share of the
glory to Misses Margaret Swetenberg
and Carrie Hawthorne, although
every player at one time or another
distinguished herself. Little Miss Ada
Faulkner, who was substituting for
her older sister, played excellent ball.
Miss Victoria Howie in center got the
tip-off every time the ball was tossed.
For the boys Billy Long shot the
most goals, Fatty Galloway was at
his best making free throws and at
guard while Skinny Moore starred all
over the court, playing the best game
of the season.
