Sigma Upsilon I Initiates Fiv BANQUET HELD AT JEFFERSON DISCUSS PLANS FOR YEAR Five prominent men drawn from the campus literati were inducted into Sigma Upsilon, honorary literary fraternity, at an initiation held in the Clariosophic hall Saturday night. A banquet followed the ceremony. The new members of the honorary group are Alphonse DesChamps, Ernest Lucas, W. Y. Wagcner, Ted Read, and Wilmot Jacobs. The initiation was conducted by Ashley Halsey, vice-president of the fraternity, in the absence of the president. He was assisted by A. C. Clement, secretary. | Places were set for 16 at the ban-, quet in the Jefferson hotel. Kershaw Walsh, of the psychology department ably acted as toastmastcr. A formal address on "South Carolina Echoes of the English Romantic Movement" i was given by Robert D. Bass, professor of English, and speeches were made by Dean J. Rion McKissick of the School of Journalism and Prof. Emmet Kilpatrick. In his talk on the effect of roman- j ticism, Mr. Bass pointed out as principle illustrations Henry Timrod and Hayne, outstanding poets of their day. He included William Crabbe in mentioning incidents and quoting compositions to carry out his topic. After the five new members had made brief introductory speeches, a short business meeting was held to decide upon the activities of the fraternity during the coming year. It was decided to meet at the home of Messrs. Walsh and Wittkowsky November 5, at which time a literary Pfogram will be rendered. Other means of fostering literary achievement in keeping with the fraternity's purpose were discussed, and plans for the future promulgated. In this respect the national group is akin to the Chanticleers, local organization at Carolina, though the Chanticleers do not confine their field to matters purely literary. Members of Scribes chapter who attended the initiation were Robert Wauchope, A. C. Clement, Ashley Halsey, Jules Siedman, A1 Rizzolo, Jack Hamilton, Harry L. Hingson, George Wittkowsky, Kershaw Walsh, Robert Bass, and Dean McKissick. U.8.O. |f. M. C. A.

The tea will be prepared by the University Auxilliary, poured by them and served by committees from various sororities and other organizations each week. The first tea will be Thursday one week. Announcements of the program will come later. u.B.O. M3KELL ENTERTAINED BY KAPPA ALPHA FRAT Kappa Alpha entertained Bishop Henry J. Mikell, knight commander of the fraternity, at a dinner last Wednesday evening at the Rosemary Tea Room. Bishop Mikell, who was in Columbia attending the Episcopal Conference, took an active interest in affairs of the local chapter, and expressed himself as being desirous to visit the University at some time in the near future for a deeper study of the fraternity situation on the campus. U.8.O. STUDENTS UPHOLD ANNUAL STAFF (Continued From Page 3) amendment that it be submitted to the faculty committee, Julian Beall, student body president, was authorized to appoint a deputation of students to confer with the faculty over the salary matter. On this committee he appointed the following: Harry DePass, chairman; R. H. Atkinson, Ashley Halsey, Robert Wauchope, and Wilson Wcldon. tr.H.o. "You had better get a hair cut." "But it cost money." "Well, it is cheaper than buying a violin." Then there was the Scotchman who bought the car because the clutch was thrown in. fraternity e New Members FRESHMEN PROVE ''WORTHY" OF UNIV. President And Vice-President Have Varied Experiences During Past Week The freshman class, not to be outdone by their older classmates, have seemingly given themselves the duty of bringing fame to the University. The president and vice-president of the class in question, at the same time that the Birds were proving tough meat for the Florida Alligators, were gaining notoriety for themselves and schoolmates. It seems that John Moroso, the vicepresident, while on the freshman football trip to Atlanta, was making harmless whoopee on the train, when suddenly, as a punishment for the misdeeds of his youth, the seat of his pants lost their contiquity with the rest of his pants. John, as a worthy freshman should, refused to be beated by fate and returned to Columbia in much the same condition of lack of attire. Buford Worthy, the president, refused to be outdone by his subordinate officer. While in Greenville for the purpose of seeing the Hurricane vanquished, it was reported that he was arrested for crashing the gate and had to spend the night in the local jug. Mr. Worthy has requested that The Gamecock state the report was erroneous and that a person of similar name was mistaken for him. U.B.O. IMPUTATION TEAM GOES TO NORWAY Gives Interesting Program; Meetings Well Attended And Much Interest Shown In Work The first Deputation Team for the year for the University Y. M. C. A. went to Norway last Thursday for a two day series of talks to the high school at that place. The members of the team were: John White, J. J. Brown, Rob Rogers and R. G. Bell. The team gave a very interesting program, including talks at chapel each day and mass meetings each night. Also members of the team visited every grade in the high school and graded school for short talks in the class rooms. All the meetings were well attended and much interest was shown in the work of the University team. Talks were made on "Playing the Game" and "God's Challenge to You and Me." U.B.O. ALUMNUS WEDS MISS FARNUM Miss Virginia Gundy Farnum and John Lawrence Grambling of Orangeburg were married at the home of the biide's parents, Mr. and Mrs. F. W. Farnum, on Wednesday, November, 20. Mrs. Grambling is a graduate of Winthrop College. Mr. Grambling was for a time a student at The Citadel and later spent three years at the University of South Carolina. He graduated with a CE degree in 1925. U.B.O. CO-EDS TABOO IN FRAT HOUSES (Continued from Page 1) Irene Dillard, and H. Babcock of the faculty committee are appended to the regulation. "The ruling was made without knowledge of the Pan-Hellenic council," Burchell Moore, vice-president, said last night in the absence of Robert Sparks, head of the representative fraternal group. "Delegates of the fraternities on the council received no notice of the faculty's action." No meeting of the Pan-Hellenic council has been held since the enactment of the rule, but members of the council were not united in agreeing to it. Mr. Moore said that he had heard of no definite protest or action emanating from the Pan-Hellenic council, however. Rowena Jones, president of the Women's Pan-Hellenic council, expresses it as her personal opinion that the girls were amenable to the new regulation when interviewed. Miss Jones said she could not speak officially because there had been no meeting of the Women's Pan-Hellenic representatives since the passage of the rule, but did point out that it would be extremely difficult for a girl to arrange for "a chaperon in advance" if a guest arrived in Columbia unexpectedly.

Morsels zj On Thursday eat and make good cheer And spice the feast with wine and beer; Let no one sigh, let fall no tear? THIS Thursday comes but once a year. ^ Really, readers, we're getting good. Four rhymes! Of course, the first and last are not entirely original, but the two middle ones have never before been printed in any paper. Just think how much you're getting for your money. And here's a beautiful love song we made for our affinity. The ending is rather weak, but that's because the author was also rather weak at that point in the story. The poem was inspired by that beautiful phrase from Schopenhauer (no, Clarence, it isn't an opera), "The light of her eyes was the beginning of my ills," and it is to be sung to the tune of "Little Annie Rooney." Read and be edified. L'amitie Est L'Amour Sans Ailes The stars were a-twinkling in heaven above, I plucked my guitar and I sang to my love? I called her my darling, my sweet turtle-dove, And I sang 'neath the light of the moon. She gave ear to my song, did the sweet turtle-dove, She heard my most ardent professions of love, And she dropped me a fair flower down from above As I sang 'neath the light of the moon. She dropped me a rose from the air, tra-la, She dropped me a rose from above; But the rose did not come from the hair, tra-la, Or the breast of my sweet turtle-dove. For the flower it grew in a pot, tra-la, And the pot it was painted bright red; And it raised quite a sizable knot (Oooo-la-lal) When it fell on the top of my head. Now the moral is this, if it need be explained: Don't sing such spring-poetry rot Unless 'tis your wish to be suddenly brained With a flower that grew in a pot. That's just a sample. We write and deliver love poetry for two bits a stanza, and guarantee it to be the smoothest on the market. Satisfaction or your money back. U.8.O. We are soldiers of the night, led forth by the light of day, stepping we know not where: only retracing the steps of long past ages.
