m co CO-EDS TRAVEL LONG DISTANCE GO TO N. Y. AND N. J. Girls Report Adventurous Trip; Travel In Chevrolet Part Of Way Armed with only an untunable ukulele, four adventurous co-eds left Columbia on Wednesday, December 18 at 1:20 o'clock for their respective homes. Three of them, Mildred and Anne Monhcit and Ethel Galloway ' were bound for Jersey City, N. J., ! and the fourth, Ruth EirofF, was going to New York City. I Their only means of transportation was a bruised and battered Chevrolet 1 roadster of a not too recent model, but which boasted of a rumble scat. | Since it was raining when they de- ( parted all four girls crowded into the ' front seat. A few miles out of Columbia, the brakes gave way to the great chagrin of Ruth who was driving. However it was dccidcd that they i might work again so Mildred Mon- , heit was appointed high exalted puller , of the brakes, and it was her duty | to perform this function whenever circumstances seemed to demand. After dark came on Ruth began to get , sleepy so Mildred tuned up the old ( uke and endeavored to keep the driver awake by singing and playing a number of recent song hits. Ethel Gallo- ( way and Anne Monhcit were in charge of the lunch basket and it was their duty to feed the driver and her serenader. About 10 o'clock that night, ' the little roadster wheezed into Raleigh and the co-eds decided to call it a day. The next morning they were up early and were sailing along gaily when suddenly they hit a soft shoulder and skidded. A flat tire was the result ] but luckily they were close to a service station and were able to get their tire patched. Ry 5 o'clock Thursday they reached Washington and leaving the car there, boarded a train and reached their homes the next day. At one o'clock New Year's morn- ; ing, they again set out, this time headed for Columbia. They boarded an i excursion train which was very I crowded but found seats in the , smoker. Some of the men asked them ; to leave, but they didn't mind a little j thing like that so they kept their places. At 7:30 they reached Washington and after taking the little , Chevrolet out of a storage all clammered in and on the evening of the following day they again reached Carolina, none the worse for their , harrowing experiences.
