The poor little Chi Omegas seem
to be getting left out in everything
else this year, so the Yellow Sheet,
. having one of the sisters on the staff,
just could not overlook them. This is
our vulgar editor, Miss "Bully"

This picture was brought to the
office by another sister, Lorraine Gale.
Thanks, Lorraine.
MISS BOW GETS
BID TO DANCE
FRAT GIVES BALL
Special Arrangements Made To
Keep Auburn-Haired Actress
From Getting Stuck
Plans are now complete for the
Easter Ball to be given by the German
Club of the University 011 Friday the
10th of April, from 7:30 until 10:30,
in the University gymnasium. According
to the plan several new and attractive
features will be introduced.
Of great interest will be attendance
at the ball by Miss Clara Bow, famous
movie actress, whose consent to be
present was secured after more than a
year of trying which began with a
phone call from Elliot College.
In order to allow everyone to have a
chance to dance with Miss Bow the
usual custom of being introduced to a
stranger will be done away with so
that it will be "grab it and dance" in
her case. Miss Bow is to have the
honor of going to the ball and leading
the grand march with the president of
the German Club, Jim Fowles.
As a special supplement to Miss
Row's presence, liquid refreshments
in the form of ice water will be served
for reasons that those who dance with

The unbelievable has happened. All
the fraternities on the campus actually
brought their news for the week to
"The Gamecock'' office so anxious
were they to get the following important
events in this issue.
Phi Kappa Sigma and Phi Sigma
Kappa fraternities have given tip in
despair and decided to amalgamate.
No one but the members could evei
remember which was which.
Delta Eta Sigma and Sigma Alpha
F.psilon entertained their friends at a
tea, given 011 Melton Field, last Monday
afternoon. The affair was very
successful, until the hosts and hostesses,
who felt it necessary to drink to
the health of each departing guest, became
slightly hungry and started
gnawing 011 the wire fence. Damages
to the extent of five thousand bucks
will have to be paid for the bleachers.
Freddy Knoblauch and Jennings
Moore spent last Tuesday night at their
home in the county jail. They were
given a free ride by Chief Stricklin,
whose fatherly instinct was aroused
when he saw the dear little boys engaging
in a game of tennis with weekold
eggs and squashed tomatoes.
The A. T. O.'s have decided to move
into a new house in New Brookland.
According to President Verner, though
the new location is hather far from
the University, it is much more convenient
for dates. "This is obviously an
improvement," he says, "because we
ATO's prefer to sleep 011 a date than
to sleep in class anyway."
The Pignia Nus and the Y. W.
Cabinet arc having a midnight feast
tonight at the Pigma Nu house at the
corner of Taylor and Hardin streets.
This little party is being held to welcome
in the New Year and to prove
that two such riotous organizations
can have a peaceful social "gathering
011 April fool. President Geor&e King
of Pigma Nu is the toastmaster for the
Miss Bow will be able to determine.
There will be a thirty-minute intermission
for those who cannot dance,
since it has been suggested that those
who do not dance can "intermission."

Delta Delta Delta suing Kappa
Alpha for divorce. The grounds are
that since the boys have started playing
poker all night they arc incapable
of supporting the Tri-Delts. The case
will be tried before the court of common
glees (Maruice Mattison, Chief
Justice) next Tuesday. The children J
are to be allowed to choose between
the two parents. Buck McNally, Jr.,
has shown preference for his father,
the gold dust twins, Jack Crosland and
John Everette, also seem to favor the
Kappa Alphas. However, Andy Jamison,
Henry Willard, Bill Coan, and I
Louie Benjamin show marked preference
for the Tri-Delts. '
Most of the little girls seem to pre- I
fer their mother, too. As Blanche DuBosc
says, "There are so many nice
fraternities 1 And only one Tri-Delta.
But mama, I did love the K. A.'s, can't
I still have dates with them sometimes?"
Sigma Phi Epsilon wishes to announce
that the local chapter 110 longer
exists. All the members have agreed J
that since all their money and respect I
is gone after the Bowery Ball, the I
chapter cannot possibly exist as a I
unit and that the charter should be J
returned immediately. All of the boys
arc very happy to get out of this mess
so lightly and are now open to bids I
from other fraternities.
The Sigma Chi's had a very un-1
fortunate thing to happen to their
house last week. They were having
a grand party with some of the Chi
Omegas celebrating their first night
in the new house, which they named J
the "Sigma Chi Omega," when the
party waxed so hot that the house
became ignited and burned completely
up and down. It is understood that I

The news that Professor Geology I
Rock Smith is the proud father of a I
healthy troupe of triplets comes as a
great surprise to Professor Smith and
his countless friends and victims at I
the University. Professor Smith is a
man of many talents aside from his J
decided gift for geology and lie should
be highly commended for this, his latest
extra-curricular accomplishment.
The three future geology professors I
have been given names after much de- I
liberation. The one with the loudest
voice is to have the honor of being J
called Rock, Jr. The other two are to I
be called Boulder and Pebble in I
memory of Doctor Smith's favorite
study. (*
The neighbors, when interviewed by I
The Gamecock, insisted that all the
triplets should have been named Rock,
Jr., as even at so early an age as three
minutes they all had voices as raucous
and manly as their father's.

And this is Mike Wind-us of Carolina,
by far the University's best-looking
man. Jack Scholenberger, voted
such by the students, is rumored to
have bribed him to stay out of the
race. We agree with Jack in that the
money was well spent.
Wind-us is prominent in all forms

SISTERS JOIN HANDS
New Chapter Installed at Allen
University?Local Members
Perform
In a most colorful ccrcmony of a
very repressive nature, Delta Delta
Delta, national organization for the
promulgation of vice, installed a chapter
at Benedict University, the cultural
center of Columbia.
"We'uns is alvays wanted a chapter
at dis joint," bubbled Miss Helizabeth
Wingwheel as she flung her arms
about one of her new sisters under
the holy crescent.
All three hundred members of the
Chapter at the University of Soused
Carolina were present in a body to
greet the new members into their
order, the glee club bus being hired
for the occasion.
The ceremony was in the hands of
I.,izzy Belser, Yesse Coldman, Helen
Bellfry, and Maybe Goodvon, who
carried out the ritual with only a few
hundred mistakes.
Each candidate was required to repeat
the name of the sorority three
times and then to say it backwards three
times. After this it was announced
that they were all members of Tri
Delta. Next each new member was
branded with the mystic emblem of
DDD, with the sacred blow-torch. The
committee on branding was made up
of Sarah Haywood, I^ucy Coldtomen,
Catherine Hasbill, and Alice Praylow.
The closing part of the ceremony
was when five piquant little sprites
came tripping in disguise as wicked
co-heads. They were Cathrhen Otis,
Blank Debose, Lusilly Mikcll, Willie
Hale and Cooper Dickson. All were
dressed in costumes made solely of
red cheese cloth, and cach one carried
three-pronged pitchforks, symbolizing
the trident degree (usually about 250
degrees F.)
A post initiation lecture was given
by Mrs. Nancy Phillips Scott, recent
winner of the celluloid cuspidor given
by Shults United for the funniest looking
girl in the freshman class, on
"What Delta Delta Delta should mean
to its members." She talked aimlessly
for an hour or more and was at last
dragged from the platform by the infuriated
mob.
A response was made by Miss Miranda
Johnson, janitorcss at the Masonic
Hotel and part time coed at
Allen University. Her subject was
"What Ah Expects Deltah Dcltah
Deltah tuh Mean Tub Myself."
The meeting was announced adjourned
when all joined hands and
sung "God Save the King."

COCKTAIL PARTY
OF J. M. MORSE
DECLARED A HIT
<
Dr. J. M. Morse entertained last
Thursday evening at the University
library with a delightful cocktail party
in honor of the faculty and several
leading students of the University.
Once during the festivities a great
commotion was heard at one end of
the hall. When the merrymakers investigated
they discovered Professor
Erik Achorn and Wee Willie Dean
fighting over the custody of a statue
of Venus which Dean Rowe had
brought to the party for his own
especial use but which he had discarded
when a better opportunity was
offered him. Professor Achorn had one
arm firmly entwined around the
statue's neck but he had been interrupted
by Willie who had a peculiar
gleam in his eyes. Professor Achorn
still clutched the statue and made
I passes at the eminent dramaturgist
with a gingeralc bottle. Professor Dean
pounded upon Achorn's mustache with
the heel of a silver evening slipper
which he clutched in his right hand.
After these two had been pacified
the party went on as merrily as before.
I have never in my life enjoyed
anything so much," exclaimed Professor
Keith as he stumbled down the
library steps at dawn, "I think these
little cultural gatherings should be
made a weekly custom."

political bandwagon and today he is
quite nutty over any form of music.
They all smile when Paul Rich sits
down to play the piano, but after he
plays a few notes a whisper of disgust
runs around the hall. Paul denies with
righteous indignation the story circulated
that he was thrown out of correspondence
school for violating the honor
principle.
Hunter Wood and Tony Young, two
big noises in the rear of the orchestra,
admit that it's certainly a hard life trying
to play a trumpet that is full of
mush. The trumpet corps remind us of a
dying heifer yelling in a thunder storin.
The old drum has lived a valiant life.
Whether Piute calls for harmony or discord,
Ward Remington sees that the old
bullhide makes some kind of noise
which, in most cases, is more harmonious
than the squeaking violin which the
great director plays when digestion is
particularly difficult.
The saxophonists, Wimberly, Tisdale,
and Warren, are the straws that break
the camel's back. A thousand cats in
Stygian darkness could not make the
racket that these three boys create. Rudy
Vallee, who is the mascot of the
Stomach-achers, would blush if he heard
these musicians in some of their nightly
broadcasts.

SYLVAN HAND TO 1
AID MRS. GRAHAM
Allan Lanibright Opposes His
Appointment Because of
Jealousy
Announcement was recently made
by Mrs. Grace Graham that she has
enlisted the services of Sylvan Hand
as assistant in the Woman's Building.
1 his came as quite a delightful surprise
to many in the dormitory, while
several others winkingly shook their
heads, as if to say, "My suspicions
have b^en confirmed."
I have felt the need of a strong
masterful influence over the girls for
some time, and it was this need that
prompted me to go to the legislature
and plead for an appropriation for such
a purpose," Mrs. Graham stated.
Allen Lambright, "the gentleman
from Spartanburg County," led the
opposition to the bill providing for
such appropriation. It is believed that
personal jealousy caused this representative
to fight the measure.

Hog-tied and swung between a

(Percival) Jenkins, outstanding sophomore
of Yonges Island, charged blushingly
upon the Women's Building last
night. Jenkins' thirty staunch friends
bad agreed to carry him to the coed
domicile when he explained that he
lost all control in the presence of the
bossing sex.
"Why, fellows, when I get near all
those good-looking wimmin, I can no
more control my sex appeal than they
can. That's one thing I have in common
with every pretty coed," the blond
Yonges Island exile admitted.
Jenkins has been accused by Maude
Brazzellc of alienating her affection
for her pet cat. This lady refused to
substantiate this rumor when questioned,
but she did permit a lover's
light to come into her eyes as she
asked if anyone had seen "my Ellison."
