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.
