The Greenwood trip was the first that the Palmetto Players have ever ( made by bus. William Dean, the di- ( rector of the players, hired one for , this occasion. The bus, a parlor car, ] bore on each side a banner with the words, "Palmetto Players, University j of South Carolina." The entire cast i reported that this method of travel j was far superior to any that had been < used before. A delightful supper was given to the cast at the Moreland hotel. Mrs. Wil- j liains of the Greenwood high school faculty, a former student at the University, was hostess. t Mr. Dean read two scenes of an t act from Shakesperc's "Twelfth Night," next production which the Palmetto Players plan, and after supper the entire cast sang "We Hail ? Thee, Carolina" before hastening to 1 the stage. * In the abscncc of H. W. Grimes, ' prologue singer, Pierce Gulledgc, who v plays the role of the clown, Jackson, a gave a humorous reading. a "The Greenwood engagement was F one of the best ever given by the 1 Palmetto Players," says Mr. Dean. The play was well advertised in Greenwood, a University art class including Rowena Jones, Ailecn Funderburke, Genevieve Garvin, Sarah Agnes Jackson, Bernice McBride, Frances Monteitii, Dorcas Sams, Louisa Shand, Augusta Stroman and Mandelle Williamson having painted posters for display in the city. ' Friday's trip was the second of the week, the players having gone to Rock Hill Tuesday.

CLARIOSOPHIC GIVES PARTY Debating the query, resolved "That moonshine in summer is more romantic than moonshine from the jug in winter," Buford Worthy and Isabel Byers on the affirmative, and Bruce Davis and Jettie Edwards on the negative, furnished a great deal of entertainment at the reception given by the Clariosophic literary society last Tuesday night. The art of making love was the subject of an exposition by T. C. Hankins. When Mr. Hankins had exhausted his knowledge on the subject, N. A. League who apparently has a profound grasp of this subject, added a great deal to the general knowledge in his usual verbose manner. Roger Pinckney, posing as a modern Baron Munchausen, told a few tales that would have put the noble baron to shame. Freshman Thomas entertained with his guitar, giving a program largely composed of popular numbers. An ample supply of refreshments made the evening a complete success. U.H.O.

"Well, I guess it's all right to ride with you, but I want you to know that I am not accustomed to riding in automobiles with strange men," she told Dr. R. L. Meriwether. The history professor was several blocks away, speeding in the direction of the campus, when he saw the co-ed. She hastened in the same direction for an early morning class, but was handicapped by an armful of books. "Get in," said the Good Samaritan of the faculty, "and I'll take you to the campus." She: "I've changcd my mind." He: "Does it work any better?" Spr IHUh/ son's newest WjilU *_ Other Sui s t wo r r the Price of O] lassrootti Notes, and a Desk ?

She perched hesitantly on the curb, Doctor Meriwether admitted smilingly, and looked over professor and car before giving her belated reply to the invitation. Then, with all the restraint and condescension of a queen, the co-ed tripped into the professor's car, occupied a corner of the back seat, and was driven safely the three blocks to the campus. "The young lady had no idea that I was in the remotest way connected with the University," Doctor Meriwether commented. j He is so dumb that he thinks bull sessions are held in stock yards. ing Styles 7or Young Men L975 xtra Pants $4.98 te Ardsley ilored of cassimeres, twists Is in stripes, overplaids and ves.
