The gamecock. (Columbia, S.C.) 1908-2006, October 28, 1931, Page Page Two, Image 2
Fifteen Th
Witness
Fifteen thousand people from every
corner of the Palmetto State and many
other states witnessed the first victory
of the Gamecocks in five years
over the football delegation from Tigerland.
There were the four travelling salesmen
from Chicago who were betting
on everything from who could get the
most drunken in the shortest time to
which team' would make the next
touchdown. And they really had
money to bet!
An inebriated Carolina supporter
with a seat on the Clcmson side of the
stadium was seen standing with eyes
half-closed and head hung down thirty
< minutes after the game was over. Finally
coming out of a stupor, lie gave
a grunt as he learned the result o^ the
game. "I'm twenty bucks better off,"
he mumbled, along with assurances
that he had been on one real drunk.
"Hold me or I'll jump off the stadium,"
warned one bacchanalian football
fan from his roost in the upper
boxes. Learning that he would not be
restrained from such action, he forgot
his intention and turned heavy-lidded
eyes toward the 'field.
Perhaps many would never have believed
this to be a Carolina-Clcmson
game had they not seen the lithe figure
of "Kitty" Sargeant darting from one
position to another as he attempted to
photograph a touchdown or a fifty^^^yard
run. Maybe "Kitty" himself had
^^b^iis doubts, since he was not accomBanied
this year with would-be photoI

It was not until after the game that
it was learned that the ferris wheel
was given a rush by forty-year-old
children of decided Scotch extract
throughout the football frolic of fowls
and felines.
The question at issue is: Were these
"kids" trying to get "high" or did they
want to get some 'highlight^" on the
game? Perhaps we shall know when
certain Scots start a movement to have
trees planted alongside the stadium
fence.
u. a. c.
Students are warned that the last
date for pictures to be made for the
Garnet and Black is November 12.
This is positively the last date. They
will be made at Sargeant's.,
Out here they're all talking either
about the latest faculty attempt to stop
smoking by cocds, or about the football
schedule for this fall. The Daily
Northwestern, "Official Newspaper of
15,000 Students," says concerning the
former: "No law of man, God or
sainted alumni is ever going to stop
Northwestern's coeds from smoking
until the mysterious deity of fashion
dictates that the cigarette is no longer
'the thing.' " Why stop at Northwestern?

the Town Theatre has arrived in Columbia
to assume his duties. He and
his wife arrived Sunday morning from
New York and arc spending some time
with W. B. Moore of Laurens St.

in the Town Theatre a while back.
Mrs. Forrester, formerly Miss Lura
Monicr, was the head of the dramatic
department of Rye Day Country
School at Westchester County, N. Y.

lately with the manager of "Grand

to secure him for the management of

Budget Cut Greatly
Fifteen Hundred Dollars To Be
Gathered In Two Day
Campaign ]
On Monday and Tuesday, November
2 and 3, the University Y. M. C.
A. will have a finance campaign in or- j
der to raise sufficient mortfcy to run j
the work of the Y. M. C. A. for this i
coming year. The amount of money i
necessary to be raised from students
and faculty will be around $1500.00, ac- j
cording to Jack Hall, treasurer of the
organization.
Mr. Hall reports that a careful check
has been made on the expenditures of
last year and a large number of items
pruned out in order to make the budget
as small as possible. About five
hundred dollars contained in the budget
last year has been eliminated this
year.
The plan of the campaign will be to
have a preliminary meeting at FlinnHall
at one o'clock for all canvassers
at which time they will be given cards,
receipt books and directions ^or the
campaign. The canvassers will be
expected to call Monday and Tuesday
on students and faculty. Each student
making a cash contribution will
be given a receipt for the amount
which he has contributed.
The X ?s '? real need of cash at the
present time and students are expected
to mak? as large a cash contribution'
as possible. However, the canvassers
will take subscriptions to be paid on
the first of^Fcbruary for those who desire
to make this arrangement. The
salary of the Y. M. C. A. secretary
and assistant has been assumed by
the Board of Directors of the University
of which Dr. Francis Bradley is
chairman, so all money contributed
will be returned to the students in services
rendered by the University organization.

The Crimson and White of the University
of Alabama relates the following
ironic situation. A certain student
received his grades for work done in
the quarter. He rated 13 B's and one
F. The 3ole failure was in a course
entitled "How to Study" given by the
psychology department.
Texas women legislators want long
cotton nightshirts prescribed by law.
But that would require inspectors to
see that it was enforced. Would that
be nice?
