GAMECOCK LOSES
TWO FROM STAFF
Krawchek And Pickens Not
Returning
I Two vacancies on The Gamecock
staff occurred when Julian Krawchek,
sports editor, and Annie May Pickens,
connected with the co-ed staff, failed
to register for the second semester.
Krawchek, who is to assume the
duties of sports reporter on the Charlotte
Observer in April, should make
a great success of his opening into
journalistic fields as he has always
made athletics his specialty and is
well posted in this line.
To assist the new administration,
Krawchek is editing the sports page
in this issue. It will be his last work
in connection with The Gamecock.
Miss Pickens came to the University
at the beginning of this year from
Greenville Woman's College. She
fast a place for herself in all journalistic
activities, being a reporter on
The Gamecock, and contributing a
short story to The Carolinian. This
semester she was to have held the
position of assistant, but was unable
to return because of the illness of her
mother.

Snow Falls, S\
Chills (
Snowballs flew back and forth
across the campus on the last day of
examinations. Not only had the
mercury sunk to almost unprecedented
depths, but papers were being corrected
and marks posted, so there was
every reason for studential hearts to
be chilled with icy fear and dark forebodings.
But nothing can chill or
dampen Carolina spirits when there
is cause for enthusiasm, and a fall of
snow around these parts is something
to get all hct up about.
One group of students found an old
sled and went sleighing, sleighing,
over the rolling plains of this our fair
Alma Mater, and everybody else tried
to slay each other with snowballs.
The feminine contingent appealed in
vain to the masculine sense of chivalry,
and more than one fair amazon
got an ice pack full in the face.
Somebody got the bright idea of
rolling up a huge big snowball, but
they carried it a bit too far. It was
so big that nobody could throw it.
A lotta work for nothing, and another
good snowball gone wrong.
RED CROSS TO
GIVE TESTS SOON
Students of the University are invited
to take Red Cross life saving
tests at the Y. M. C. A. pool February
25-28, when Ramone Eaton, field representative
of the Red Cross and an
expert swimmer, will be in Columbia
j to supervise the swimming tryouts.
Mr. Katon has been in Columbia to
administer life saving tests before,
and is known to a number of students.
Those interested are asked to communicate
with Bill Cantey or the local
Red Cross office.

TORY... NOT A COUGH
now Balls,
Cover Campus
1 he snow men were conspicuous
by their absence. Maybe the poor
things were afraid, for the air was
thick with snowballs.
Two ambitious journalism students
climbed through classroom windows
to the upstairs porch of the Extension
building, and from there started
a series of overwhelming Swiss avalanches.
They tumbled sheets of
snow upon passersby, and the party
was a great success until rude boys
in the neighborhood retaliated with a
salvo of snowballs. Some of the
missiles went through the open window
of Dr. Havilah Babcock's classroom,
crowded with students, but enough of
them landed to drive the obstreperous
students from their stronghold.
Marshal Cantey's force of window
menders worked double shifts repairing
glasses smashed by the icy projectiles,
especially in DeSaussure,
where a battle involving dozens of
students had taken its toll.
And so they all fell; snow flakes,
snowballs, window panes, and walkers
on the frozen ground.
NORWOOD OFFERS
NEW COURSE
A new course in literary criticism is
being offered by the Knglish department
for the present semester. Prof.
Joseph Norwood, who is conducting
the classes, says that it will be one
of the most complete studies along
this line given anywhere.
Only juniors and seniors are being
allowed to take the new class. The
text book is written by Dr. Edwin
Bok of the University of Wisconsin,
whence comes so many of the texts
used in university departments. So
far, Professor Norwood has found the
course a great success, as only those
students interested in making a deep
and intensive study of English have
signed up to learn real criticism.
