Clemson Trustees Vindicate
Riggs.

Clemson College, April 11.-Pres-
ident Riggs and Colonel Cummins
have been vindicated by the board of
trustees. Findings of the board in the
investigation asked for by President
Riggs and Colonel Cummins may be
summed up in the following quota
tions from the official report:
."The board expresses it's very full
est confidence in the veracity, integ-
rity and loyalty of President Riggs,
both to the college and to its students
ard deems it unnecessary to express
an opinion touching his extraordi-
nary efficiency, so well known to the
people of the state.
As to the disagreement between
President Riggs and members of the
freshman and sophomore committees,
s"Ehe board believes and adopts the
theory of President Riggs himself,
made at the hearing and found in his
testimony, as follows: My own the
ory is that these young men, whether
through my mistake of their ques-
tions or their mistake of my answers,
got mixed up in the matter of my ao-
.proval of this order, or my seeing
this order, with my not knowing of
this order. That is the only theory up
on which I can explain it. The repu-
tation of this student body is as dear
to me as it can be to any living soul.
/ would not wish at this time to have
you think that the young men of this
corps would attempt, directly or in
directly, deliberately to deceive you.
/ ask you to accept their statements
of the conference with the same sin
cerity that you accept my recollec-
tions to the contrary
Regarding the charge of harsh and
unjust administering of discipline,
the board found as follows: "The tes-
timony offered to support the charge
that discipline had been administered
harshly ior unjustly does not sustain
BIT. The character, veracity and etfl-
cheney of the commandant, Colonel
|Cummins, was not even brought into
Egi5restion. The board allowed any ca
dsa to to 6ffer complaints or testimony
against Colonel Cummins or his as
sistants. Five cadets out of the corps
of nearly 500 offered complaints and
testimony but it is the belief of the
board that every one who heard their
evidence IS lie board was, that these
complaints were not sustained.
All the trustees were present, as
follows: Alan Johnston, chairman;
Ex-Gov. R. I. Manning, A. F. Lever,
Henry C. Tillman, w. D. Barnett, j.
E. Wannamaker, B. H. Rawl, M. L,

Madame Tetrazzini Charms
Boston Audience.
Dear Advertiser:

This afternoon 1 sat amidst an ex-
pectant throng, waiting to hear
Nine. Louisa Tetrazzini sing.
One who has been photographed
written about and praised is in hard
position when she appears before an
audience, if perchance many of them
have never heard her, for she is i'm
mediately measured by the mental
picture they have of her, and found
at once to be up to their standard OF
below it.
In an article / read recently this
statement was made: personal lik-
ing is a great factor in human rela,
tions." Personal liking has also some
thing to do with the popularity of a
persons art. l was deeply impressed
from the moment she entered the
platform, with her graciousness to-
ward the audience. Never before
have l seen anyone so very apprecia-
tive of a warm reception. If courtesy
is noticeable and commendable in or
dinary life, it is even more so on the
platform. Her attitude was her best
introduction.
When the program began l listen,
ed with interest, and more than that
with the willingness to forgive any
faults, had l had the knowledge to
detect them, because of her kindly
attitude. Through the entire program
however, l found no fault to forgive
The Italian numbers were enjoy
able for tone if not fo meaning, but
one delightful old melody l have
heard many times in the South repaid
me for all the Italian l failed to un'
derstand.
Mr.. Gordard, who assisted Nine
Tetrazzini, sang a negro spiritual
song. There is nothing more popular
with a Northern audience. l noticed
the pleased expressions on the faces
of the audience as it was being sung
Nine. Tetrazzini herself is an
Italian and during the war she gave
a large part of her time to the Rec
Cross and Liberty Bond sales.
At the concert in Boston, she wore
a decoration said to have been given
her by the King of Italy. Thus Nine
Tetrazzini's lovely voice is enhanced
by a splendid loyalty to the cause OF
all the allies.
