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. University Directory.
