1 ®95-
The voice of the old chapel hell
after a silence of thirteen days, has
again been heard in the land, and
has called the 'Varsity man once
more to the recitation room. Last
Thursday morning it awoke from
its holiday sleep, and as peal alter
peal rang out from the old belfry,
the student was brought to a reali
zation that there was such things
as chapel service, recitations and
six mouths work before him. At
each dang some pleasing holiday
memory took (light and thoughts of
home, the little girl who was so
glad to see him, and the fine old
lime he had spent melted away like
the snow around him on the cam
pus, before the morning sun. Yes,
we are here again, ready for work.
Let each ami everyone of us make
every hour profitable, that lies be
fore us. Lot everybody remember
those resolutions made before Xmas
to do that hard study we were go
ing to do. These six months have
a great deal in store for us. How
are we going to use the time? Es
pecially is this period of time one
of vast value to the class of '95, for
it is the last act of their college
drama, llow soon will the curtain
fall and end their college career!
After six mouths the name of '95
will be heard no more within these
classic halls, and many a young man
will be out on the ocean of life with
the shores of the cam pus.world fast
fading from view. Well, we are
all going to use our time in the best 1
way, let us hope, and leave nothing 1
to be regretted on the college cal- (
endar of '95.
THE NEW HOARD.
After this issue of the Reii and
1 Black new hands will wield the pen
in our editorial sanstwm. In turn
ing over the sheet to the new staff, 1
I we wish to thank one and all who
have shown courtesies toward ns
I during our management of the j
sheet. We heartily appreciate the
way in which tlie Athens merchants
have patronized us in the shape of
ads, and to the college men for
their subscriptions. In regard to
the future, allow us to remark that
we wish the new editorial board
much success,and suggest that they
keep the paper up to her present
principle and views in regard to
college politics, that much discussed
question. It has been our endeavor
to break up this evil, and though
we may not have succeeded, it is
our wish that the next staff will
keep up the crusade. Hoping that
we have pleased our readers with
our past issues, wu now turn the
paper over to the next board, and
wish them all kinds of success with
the ('diversity's weekly.
THE INTER COI.I.EtilATE CON
YENTION.
On the first page of this issue we
publish a report of the Southern in
ter collegiate convention, which met
in Atlanta ou Dec. 22nd, 189-1, for
the purpose of developing ami puri
fying college athletics in the South.
It is with pleasure that we are ena
bled to announce that the origina
tor of this convention was Dr. Chas
11. Herty, one of our most popular
professors, and promotor of ath
letics at the ’Varsity. The conven
tion accomplished much toward the
interest and development of athlet
ics in our Southern colleges. They
drew up a constitution and submit
ted it to all the athletic associations
of the represented colleges to be
ratified by them. We have not
heard yet whether the U. of G. has
taken any steps in this matter, and
we would advise the athletic asso
ciation to take steps at once and
endorse it. Some time back a com
mittee was chosen by our athletic
association to draw up a constitu
tion, but nothing has been doue so
far. Gel to work, fellows, and fix
the constitution. We have shown
the right spirit in beiDg the promo
tor of the convention, and it means
much for athletics at the U. of G.
Accept The Red and Black’s con
gratulations, Dr. Herty and gentle
men of the Athletic Association, for
the enterprise shown in the above
work.

The Seminary Signal says the
Kkd and Black gives too much
space to athletics and criticizes us
generally. The Signal should re-
membir that the students of the
Georgia Female Seminary and the
’Varsity boys may prefer different
kinds of reading matter. We are
sorry the dear little girls are not
pleased with the Kkd and Black,
and if they don’t want to hear any
more about those horrible athletic
items, why we wont print them.
The above Magazine says : “Tlie
Phoenix, of Emory College is a mod
el college journal. Its mechanical
make-up is faultless, while its read
ing matter shows considerable depth
of thought upon the part of its edi
tors. It is always a welcome visitor.”
We expect Emory College and
the Georgia Female Seminary rank
in about the same order.
The Emory Pluenix for Dec. ’9-1
conus out with an article condemn
ing intercollegiate foot-hall, and
the following is an extract from
same:
“The president and trustees of
Emory are inexorable about Emory
boys engaging in intercollegiate
games and keep a sharp eye on the
games played on the campus. A
few city dudes howl at this. Let
them. The fathers did not found
Emory for them. Of a!' breeds of
men, they are of the least account.
Let President Gaudier stand firm
in his determination. The Trustees
will stand by him. Emory College
is an institution of learning ; it is j
not an athletic or other sporting
school.”
It is our opinion that Emory is
just about twenty years behind the
times and had better wake up if she ,
wants to be counted with the first
class institutions of the country.
We are sorry to learn of a slight
difficulty between one of the stu
dents and a town man last Thurs
day evening, from too much snow
balling. While snow balling is a
very amusing sport, it should not he
carried too far. A joke ceases to
be a joke when brought to an ex
treme.
list soon. Every ’Varsity man
should take the Kkd and Black.
We hear there is no drill to be
had during the months of January
and February, as the weather is
generally so bad at this time. Quite
right.
