"Holdin Populi Co-Ed Says j "Necessity" Woodrow Lewis Likes It Nathan, John Plott, Pinckney, Clara Martin, Begg Ligon All "Adore" It By J. Rion McKissick "Holding hands!" was the almost unanimous reply of most students Wednesday when asked what was their favorite pastime. One co-ed reminded the reporter that a "nice girl has to hold some boys' hands." Jack Nathan said that while he was "nice," he did not see the necessity of ^ letting a girl hold his hands. "I am * too nice for such a thing, and, besides, 1 I may want to reach for a lucky any * minute." * Woodrow Lewis said that one had ' to hold hands in Darlington or the two would be lost in the crowd. He confessed that he still had the habit, ' although having left the home town j ten years ago to get off a four-year course at the University. He grad! uates year after next. John B. Plott said that every time he 1 held hands he imagined he was hold- 1 iug the hands of Bloody Mary, there- : by preventing a murder. Plott is ex- 1 pected to be paroled from the state hospital soon on good behavior. "It satisfies," declared Jack Payne ' in speaking of holding hands. Maybe ( I a pain does have to be satisfied. Roger Pinckney was almost non- j committal on the query, but he was | . i finally drawn out to admit "he kinda ( "I liked the idea." For that matter, Ida , i has attracted a number of ex-Beaufort , swains. ^ ^ "It's none of your business why I j l'ke holding hands because my hands get cold sometimes," said Elizabeth Moore. After all, who has a right to I pick her dates? Clara Martin prefers dropping handI kerchiefs to holding hands, but she I intimated she liked holding hands. I "It reminds me so much of father I and home." The co-ed has not reIB ceived her check from home yet, and I it's after the middle of the month. H Henry M. McKinnon insinuated I that he felt safer if he held his date's j hands.

No Scalping ChapelSeats "To meet the ever increasing demand for chapel seats, the faculty "ecently agreed to allow students to sell their seats to the highest bidder, providing no one is caught scalping." So declared Registrar Billy Wetmore yesterday after being trapped ay a Lamecock reporter as he caine Dut of the faculty meeting. "Students are warned now that if they are caught infringing upon this privilege by scalping they will be hailed summarily before the honor :ommittee. And what student wants to be helled?" the official queried. U. 8. o. like it is, and I've been hi-jacked before." "Father said to be nice to the boy friends and that's why I hold hands," said Mary Begg Ligon. "It's not a bad idea on cold nights when the gloves are missing. Summer nights you may drift apart if you don't hold hands." Betty Bryan coyly let fall the belief that holding hands showed a welldeveloped technique, while Susan Gassoway, her companion, said it set her style off to a "t."

Dean Blankha By Placing On < Charlie Mercer Tells Fish Story Here's Charlie Mercer's latest. If you are not in his class, you may "believe it or not." "While plowing out in a field one day, I became so hot that I had to ake off my vest, hanging it on a fence. A calf chewed up the vest, including my watch. "The calf was recently butchered? at the age of seven years. Lodging between its lungs was.the lost watch. "Respiration, the closing and filling of the lungs, had kept the watch wound," Professor Mercer said, "and the timepiece had lost only four minutes in seven years." The professor is an assistant superintendent of the First Baptist Sunday school. U. 8. C. Edits Lamecock . Hf V -; .

"Holding hands reminds me so much of the good old days in Africa when I held fingers upon fingers of bananas," said Charles Cain after lengthy deliberation. Lillian Robinson said it paid to keep in practice as Lochinvar might go galloping by any minute and she expected to be able to cope with the situation at hand by hand. Marian Finlay, in her quaint way, declared that by holding hands it did away with any possibility of the boy friend getting away until desired. "He won t get away frum me, if I gets my paw on him." While Robert H. McLane did not threaten the "paw," he said he did not intend to hold bands all the time. "And besides, would Jawn Bull do it, ole deah?" In his embarrassment the reporter could only say that John Bull was famous for rolling his own. tj. 8. n She: "How very magnetic you are." He: "How did you know this suit was charged?"

"These young men and women, bless them, have shown to me and the world that they are sensible and not crazy like the would-be Phi Beta Kappas, and it is for this reason that I gladly place them on my list," Dean Bankhead said in an exclusive interview with "Scoop" Brooker, star reporter of The Lamecock. Following are the students given this recognition: Laura Williams, George H. Wittkowsky, Yates Snowden, Oscar Keith, Frank Taylor, Captain Roberts, Frank T. Welbourne, R. H. Wienefeld, Sam Boudreaux, DeVere Smith, Sarah Davis, M. H. Shepherd, Patterson Wardlaw, W. H. Wicker, Lawson Keith Scott, J. E. Mills, William L.

Negotiations are underway to secure a barn for the staging of the play, but it is understood that Willie Dean and "Second-Mortgage" Ernest Caughman cannot come to terms about the leasing of Caughman's barn. . . . 7, The play portends to portray a cross-section of American life. The mule, the carriage, the harness, and the road are all obviously Amcfrican as they are presented on the stage. The scene is laid in America. Did you think it could be laid in a hen-nest? N. B. Hicks takes the leading role as Mr. Mule, while he is ably supported by J. W. Hayes as Mr. Harness, Eugene Halsey as Miss Carriage, and King Keyserling as the road. Hicks won out over strong competition by reason of his vocal organs, as these are vital to the success of the one taking the role as Mr. Mule. Director Dean has requested all merchants to sell out their supply of grapefruits before the play is presented. All students will be searched before being allowed to witness the performance. XJ. B. O. Daniel, Donnelly, Fight Love Duel Reverting to the days of old, G. T. Daniel and Richard C.
