VACHEL LINDSAY, WHO WILL LECTURE HERE. HAS LED BOHEMIAN EXISTENCE Author Love* Art More Than Poetry; I* Hi* Own Illustrator Yachel Lindsay, noted American poet, will be one of several authors who will lecture this winter at the University. Springfield, Illinois, was the scene of his birth in .18<9. When he was eighteen, he attended Hiram College and later the Art Institute of Chicago and the New York School of Art. He once remarked that it still seems strange to him that he is acclaimed as a poet for he has always been intensely interested in art. He has published a book of drawings, “Going to the Sun” and has himself illustrated several of his collections of poems. When he was thirty-five years old, Mr. Lindsay published his first collection of poems, the well-known “The Congo and Other Poems” which brought him wide recognition and placed him in the front rank of American poets. For five years after this, 1905-1910 he spent much of his time j lecturing for the Anti-Saloon League. The spring of 1906 saw him tramping through the south- j ern states distributing “The Tree of Laughing Bells”. The bohemian life again claimed him in 1912 when he walked from Illinois to New Mexico, chanting his “rhymes” and proclaiming his “Gospel of Beauty”. Mr. Lindsay declares that, although he has learned the dialect and ways of the University, he prefers the bohemian life. Much of his life has been spent among what he calls the peasants, reciting his poems to them and doing odd jobs with them, and he avows that he is more at home in their company than with any University ■people. Among other works, he has published “A Handy Guide for Beg- Parris Islanders Meet Hurricanes In Tough Contest Heavy Marine Team Boasta String of Win« Over College Teams What promises to be the best game of the year is the contest slated for tonight when the powerful Parris Island Marines furnish the opposition for Tommy McCann’s frosh-varsity combination. The Marines have won seven out of eight games with college teams, and are reputed to have a heavy and tricky squad, while Miami played its best game of the season last week and fans look to them to turn in another win showing the same fine brand of ball. The result should make a whale of. a scrap. Two of the Parris Island Marine's victories were rung up on teams that have played here. Georgia State was defeated, 25-12, and Bowden, another Georgia team, bowed to the South Carolinians by a 32-6 count. Other than the above scores, information on the invaders is meagre. They are known to be an exceptionally heavy squad, the entire team averaging about 190 pounds. Many of the Marines are ex-college men, including two former students of Notre Dame and one from Stanford. They are coached by service men. Coach McCann has been sending a pony team against the first stringers armed with Marine plays throughout the first part of the week. The Parris Islanders use a wing back offensive which had the varsity baffled for a while with a series of reverses and tripple passes, After a short practice, the first string linesmen were stopping everything that came their way. Miami will be additionally handicapped this week in that Johnny Bates, chief ground-gainer against Erskine and an able backfield performer all year, dislocated his collarbone last Friday and will be out for the remainder of the season. Bates is the latest on the crippled list, which includes Siler, Crowe, Fogg, and Buckley. The Hurricanes are pretty certain to line up tonight with Cronin and Middleton at the ends, Puglisi and Weiss at tackles, Dansky and Graczyk at guards, Richardson at center, with Moore and Reichgott at halves in the backfield, Lee at quarter, and Hansen at full. gars", “The Chinese Nightingale and Other Poems”, and “Going to the Stars". The vitality of his poems is characteristic of the ballad form he frequently uses — a natural outgrowth of his previous wandering-minstrel mode of life. His poetry is chiefly appealing because, of its strong rhythmic, quality. To gain its full effect, it must be chanted aloud rather than read silently, and is most effective when half-sung. In recent years, Mr. Lindsay has been travelling over the country, as he says, “singing my own songs to my own tunes for the English Departments of Universities.”
