Speaks At Vespers
Bell Compiled List Of Former Y
Presidents And Their
Achievements
"When I was a student, Y. M. C. A.
workers were considered the 'sissies' of
the campus," said Governor Olin D.
Johnston in a speech at Vesper services
last Sunday night. "I hope that
there is no such feeling now. I took
part in this type of work while in
college and I do not consider myself
a 'sissy.' "
To sustain further the Governor's
words, R. G. Bell, secretary of the
University Y. M. C. A. has compiled
the following list of Presidents of the
University "Y" since 1020:
1020: E. B. Smith, captain of the
football team, president of the Clariosophic
Literary society and vice-president
of the student body. He is now
in the insurance business at Greenville.
1021: Guy Gullick, guard on the
football team, president of the moot
court, and now a lawyer at Greenville.
1022: Harry Lightsey, all-State
guard on the football team, president
of the student body and former varsity
coach at Carolina.

Strange Customs
Prevail In Spain
Timmons Gives Example
Small Opportunity For Swains
To Catch Batch Of
Wooing
"How would you like to buy three
tickets to a show every time you take
your girl to the movies?" asked R. K.
Timmons, professor of Romance Languages.
There was no answer.
The professor smiled.
I here was still no answer.
Initially an industrious student answered
in the negative.
Well, in Spain," lie explained,
"young men are not allowed to he
alone with a girl until they are married.
I'urthermore, every time a man
meets an unmarried girl he tips his
hat, no matter how many times he
may see her a day."
About twice a week in all moderatesized
towns, entertainments of some
description arc staged. At this time,
wooers get most of their "Courting"
done. It is customary for women to
walk on the right side of the walk and
men to walk on the left, one going in
one direction and the other in the opposite.
Each time they meet (twice
in the course of a stroll around the ,
block) the man tips his hat and can
manage to get in a few personal remarks,
according to Doctor Timmons.
"This is some life to lead," the pro- ,
fessor suggested, "but at least it gives
the newly married couple the thrill of
their lives."
