A special meeting of the University
faculty was called last Wednesday to
discuss the matter of giving freshmen
the right to wear one shoe on barefoot
day, it having been suggested that if
one shoe were worn the freshmen
would have one foot to limp on the
next day.
After this matter was settled, the
learned gentlemen drifted off into pairs?
until Hot Man Derrick livend things
up with the simple question:
"Who's got a deck of cards?"
It seemed that there were several
in the crowd, Short Circuit Hoy, the 1
number one bug man, coughed apologetically
and admitted that he had
brought a pack "to play solitaire with
if the meeting got tiresome." Strangely
enough, no one wanted to play solitaire,
but Dr. Weinefeld, the Baltimore
Yankee with the Big Bank Roll, said
he had a few odd pennies he would like
to build into eighty cents. This was ]

GAINES NEW BEARD \

Amid the cheering and rioting of t
the students last night, Dink Gaines f
was crowned the beard-growing chain- c
pion of the University. Madam
Sweeny was a close runner upper but j,
failed by a hair to tie the bristling 0
young girl from Columbia. Other con- p
testants, Cornelia Jackson, Katherine n
Bush, Helen Townsend, Anne Ehrlich, j,
Hamilton Warren, Sara Chandler,
Betty Carlisle and Bessie Cheatham. ^
The race had been going on for
several weeks but Miss Gaines began l
to nose out the other contestants soon
after the contest began. Catherine
Taylor made a good start but her I
chance of winning went up in flames
when her beard was set afire by a
cigarette. 1
With her flowing red beard waving S
in the gentle breeze she accepted the
reward of $5 from Dr. Babcock, who
delivered an address on the weekness I
of the weaker sex.
"It is all a secret," declared the winn?r,
"I have been drinking Lydia Pink- t
ham for the last twenty years. It is \
good for children too. Try it on ^
yours too."

The neuter bull session team, composed

the canteen recently.
The query was: Resolve that more
?raft be gotten from debating trips.
The vocal duet of Carolina pointed
jut that in order for a debater to do
iiis worst he must be paid at least 12c

contended that a bull-artist
anly needed 10c for a trip, that being
the amount they received.

Friarson Finally Fulfills Fervor
For Furthering Kingflsh's
Fame
Dean Nellie Fryerson, of the University,
was recently elected State Organizer
for Senator Hooey P. Long's
Share-Our-Health program of South
Carolina, in which one hundred or
n.ore Share-Our-Health clubs will be
organized, it was learned today from
a hot telegram from the Kingfish at
his Washington headquarters. It was
further learned that Richard K. (Dick)
Fauster, prodigy in law, was selected
as Hooey's understudy, and otherwise
right hand man.
It came as a great surprise to most
of the Campus when the dean produced
a wire from L,ong this morning
acknowledging acceptance of the new
honor. It is understood that Father
Cauthen and William Randolph Hurst
have also wired congratulations; however,
these were withheld because of
the warm personal feelings conveyed.
Father Cauthen, heads the Eastern Division
of the country while Hurst
heads the west.
Immediate plans for the champagne
could not be learned but it is rather
certain that the dean will appoint I.
AM. A. Berry, one of Ivong's first supporters
on the Campus, as her first
man and probably Swingo A. Mozingo
as Secretary.

Beaux Arts Ball
May Be In Pen
Plans are now being made with
Guvner Johnstown to let the Beauzartz
brawl be hell in the state penitentiary
next winter. The only trouble
with this scheme would be that some
of the high powered students might
like the grub out there so good that
they would not want to return to their
usual diet at the mess hall.
The music will be played by the
Lamecock orchestra, the members of
which organization, will at that time
only have ten more years to serve.
The reason for the selection of this
place as a location for the shin dig is
that most members of the Reauzartz
club won t have to buy costumes. If
there are any speeches made, the
speakers won t have to worry about
their listeners leaving.
HANDSOME HE-MEN 1
SEEK NEW HONORS
Non-sorority girls met in the chapel
some time ago and selected G. Stanley
Bryant and Wilmot Hutto as their
representatives for the fourthcoming
May Queen peauty contest. They
think that they are about the bestest
lookin girls 011 the campus.
Ted Nine-times and Dave Gallopway
were the runner-ups but they didn't
win on account of they have what their
best friends won't tell them about.
Pink tooth-brush, athlete's foot, and
other honors were not considered, but
if these features had been taken, there
is no doubt that the latter two would
have been selected without competition.
Vivian Lomas and Kent Starvingpillar
are the choice of I Felta Thi, popular
girl's supporter. Lomas was
chosen for his rare ability to walk in
a feminine way, and Starvingpillar was
selected because of his waving locks
