Gratifying Report

1t is very gratifying to few of the
W. c. T. U. women that have so
earnestly and faithfully worked for
the Travellers Aid to read such
reports as Mrs. Darracott gives from

worth while when we can help in 80
great work as this. The stranger
that comes to our city cannot help
from being impressed from the well

Greenville, March 11-"A thorough

the purpose Of our leaving the college
in body yesterday" was the state
ment made here today by Harold
Turner, president of the freshman
class at Clemson college, commenting

Mr.. Turner said it had been de-
cided by himself and members of his

mated that they would have matters
of Importance to talk about later.
He today received a telegram from

situation. There are no further de-

situation. There are no further de-
velopments of consequence. The
rumors published in the afternoon
papers that the seniors and juniors
were leaving is incorrect. They at
tended classes as usual today, and
will do so tomorrow They will then be
given permission 10 go to their homes
for vacation, covering the time
usually given to second term eXami-
nations. March Is to p. The au-
tllorit;es feel tina. the students could
not do themselves justice on exanlila-
tons because 50 many had lost time
on account of influenza, naumps and
because of the disturbed conditions.
There seems to be q feeling of hope
fulness on the part of all concerned
that wise settlement Of all issues
will be made.
Following is copy of letter sent
by President Riggs to parents Of boys
who left college without authority:
81 inclose herewith article which
was officially prepared by the college
and published this morning in the
leading newspapers. This sets out
fully the essential circumstances of
the recent disorder at the college. l
regret to say that your son is one Of
those who left college without au-
thority.
''The matter will be laid before the
board of trustees at meeting prob
ably this week ard you will then be
notified upon what conditions, if any,
your son will be permitted to return
in case he applies to do so. Both the
board and | must, of course, realize
that young boys can not be expected
to exercise the mature judgment of
their elders, and we also realize that
good many boys, had they acted on
their own Judgment and not follow
ed the leadership Of others, would not
have left. l have little doubt that the
trustees will make wise and con-
siGerate decision in the whole matter.
There is no legal way in which
the authorities of the college can re-
ceive boy back who has left without
authority except through trial by
the discipline committee. For that
reason the matter is being referred to
the trustees, who have, of course, full
authority to take any action that they
see fit. l regret, exceedingly the oc-
currence, as I know you do, but this
is day of unrest and that, too, has
to be taken into due consideration"
