While returning last Monday morning rom a week-end visit to friends at Converse College, a Ford belonging to Miss Tay Hudgens of Columbia, in which Mora Sparkman, Frances Cardwell and Miss Hudgens were riding, turned over )etween Union and Columbia. Although .he was the middle one of three Miss Cardwell was the first one to get out of :he car after it came to rest in its inserted position. The others followed her :hrough the window immediately. A blow-out of the right rear tire caused :he car to turn over on the rocky detour. As if anticipating an accident, some nen were standing near and six men ^together, including two doctors, arrived it the scene. Although none of the occupants were lurt the slightest bit, the Ford needed 1 little attention in the way of one new wheel.

The only response to the remarks was 1 series of laughs and jeers from two masculine throats. Then silence, only to dc broken by the sound of more rocks cashing through the open window. A few minutes later the peace of mind jf the writer was again disturbed by masculine tricks, again coming from the fertile minds of George Olson and Reed Smith.
