An important innovation was put * into effect with this dance which required every one to arrive at ten o'clock to be admitted. Cards were issued to the men at the dance and no cards were issued after ten. The dance was therefore started at the appointed hour and the crowd was limited to a size just right lor the gym floor. Due to the success of this arrangement, this procedure will apply to all PanHellenic dances in future. The decorations. transformed the gym into a veritable fraternity heaven. Penants bearing the G^eek letters of each fraternity in the Council were made of paper in the colors of the particular fraternity and hung low over the dancers. Shaded lights and evergreens completed the effect overhead. The side walls hung with large felt penants, plaques, and seals. The orchestra stand was also decorated with crepe paper draperies and ever, greens. Each member of the Interfraternity Council wore an identifying red carnation. Music was furnished by the Game cocks. Officers of Pan-Hellenic are Pat Nelson, president; Bland Hammond, vicepresident ; and William Donelan, secretary. Hap Edens was chairman of the social committee which planned and had charge of this dance. u. s. c. .

Unique Contest Held At Mess Hall Dance What is probably the best dance ever given at the mess hall took place Tuesday. Although there were not many people attending, the moderate sized crowd present had an enjoyable time. The music was furnished by two orchestras, the Gamecocks and the Carolinians. The high spot of the evening was a contest between the orchestras. They were so nearly equal that no decision was given. The affair was chaperoned by the matrons of the hall. It ended at 11:30. nimbleTsorores skip hop-scotch A hop-scotch tournament is being held in front of the Alpha Delta Pi house every afternoon immediately after supper. The contestants are Elizabeth Alexander, Mary Lena Baskin, Marian McCutchen, Mary Begg Ligon, Susannah Barnwell, Margaret Risher, and Margaret Mann. Miss Alexander won out Tuesday, and was awarded Polywog, a yellow china dog with a broken ear. Small prizes are awarded each day and a large one will be presented at the end of the tournament to the one who wins the greatest number of games. MORSELS (Continued from page four) Migosh, says the campus cynic, how about some arm chairs and rose lights? The funniest thing in the papers recently was the story of a professional militarist coming out strong for Christianity. Several boys have radios in their rooms. As if they didn't get enough static in the classrooms! Our idea of scientific farming would be to make all the hens attend literary society meetings. Then they'd lay scrambled eggs. One way to relieve the depression would be to dissolve all state and federal legislative bodies. Then maybe we'd see who really runs things. But how can you expect decent politics in the state when they're so nauseating on the campus? We suggest a student bjdy constitution modelled along the lines of the Gamecock constitution. Then, and not 'till then, will the race be to the swift and the victory to the strong. The campus cynic says John Bolt Culhertson could have himself elected King of Spain or Czar of all the Russias. What? Another - one? Writer's cramp, housemaid's knee, athlete's foot, and now Hapsburg lip. v.V'v ... . ,/iii ? V \/ v n.

A by-line to that effect was accidently left out by the printers. This accounts for the fact that practically the same story appeared in one paper Thursday afternoon and in the other Friday evening.
