Only about 40 persons can be accom-

S.'Out of the several hundred applica-

Is REELECTED

tion of the state, the alumni Of Caro-
lima came home yesterday and for a
day once more held sway in the chapel
hall and the pleasant green, shut off
from the world outside by the red and
aged walls that have year after wear
watched young men and women go out
from the university. Old associations
were renewed; friends and classmates
long separated saw each other again
and together recalled incidents of col
lege days, mellowed and haloed but
not obliterated by the passing years
Business and pleasure divided the
day, the annual business meeting of
the alumni association being held yes
terday morning in the university
chapel and the annual barbecue at
Lakeview club yesterday afternoon.
j. Rion McKissick Of Greenville, edi-
tor of the Greenville Piedmont, was
reelected president of the association
at the business meeting yesterday
morning, the vote being unanimous
Mr.. McKissick yesterday completed
his first year as head of the Carolina
alumni.
Other officers named at the session
were: Vice president for the First
congressional district, j. Ross Hama
han of Charleston; vice president fo,
the Second district, w. Fred Lightse,
Of Hampton; vice president for the
Third district, w. II. Nicholson of

member of the board of trustees of the
alumni endowment and loan fund.
s. DIR. w. s. Currell, president of the
university, making the address of wei.
tome 10 the alumni, struck the key
rote Of the meeting in his prediction
of days of more glory and greater use.
fulness ahead for the university
Again and again other speakers voic,
ed this same prophecy at the same
time calling to the attention of the
alumni that these days of greatness
are not to be attained by sudden flight
and then only through the hearty co
operation of faculty, trustees, presi
dent, students and alumni.
This was the theme of President
McKissick his annual report, u
which he pointed out to the alumni the
need of placing the association upon 8
firm financial basis in order that il
might go on with the work it is now
doing. AS a means of effecting thi.
he suggested a reorganization of the
association with the organization Of
live chapters of the association in ev
cry county and city in the state. This
plan was not acted upon by the alumni
at their meeting and will presumably
come up for consideration before the
alumni council.-The State.

WE SHOULD UTILIZE OUR
RIVERS.

What a great pity it is that the
proper effort has never been made to
utilize the splendid rivers tributary
to Brunswick and what a boon it will
be to this city and to the splendid
territory surrounding it, when the Oc-
mulgee is made navigable and is
used!
Of course efforts of a fragmentary
nature have time and time again been
made to operate boat lines from Ma
con to Brunswick, but the matter has
never caught the attention of the
men who are really interested in this
vast transportation idea.
The time must come, however, when
the business expansion of the coun-
try will force congress to take the
necessary steps to put into commits
sion not only the Ocmulgee river, but
the other systems that are now idle,
when they ought to be providing out
lets for inland commodities.
On this subject the Mobile Register
of few days ago carried the follow
ing interesting reference:
"There has been of late a growing
recognition of the Importance oftriver
transportation and Southern outlets
for inland commodities. The present
congestion on the railways of, the
East is turning the attention of in
land shippers directly and with new
mephasis to the availability and ac-
feasibility of the river routes for com
merce seeking tidewater The rail
ways of hte great producing areas
have had no heavier handicap than
their own inability to move without
delay all the freight requiring to be
moved. Greater use Of river trans
port would relieve the railways to a
large extent of this handicap, and be
a boon to the shippers, who would no
longer be- at a disadvantage, because.
Of slow car deliveries and delays III
transit, due to clogged traffic chan
nels. A more nearly equal division
of, business between rail and river
would materially aid in bringing the
carriers out of seasonal and unseasz
