Installment Dances...
Out at Oregon State, men students can
meet every girl on the campus in one
evening for sixty cents. The twelve
"installment dances" recently, and men
are admitted to each sorority for five
cents. After fifteen minutes of dancing,
the stals are chased away, but there still
remain eleven other houses to choose
from.
More Examinations .. .
Beginning in 1940, each candidate for a
degree from Furman University must
pass satisfactorily a comprehensive ex
amination covering the entire undergrad
uate course in his major subject. The
new arrangement is expected to result in
better correlation of knowledge and an
increased effort to retain information
learned, according to Dean R. N. Daniel
of the co-ordinated institution.
Ink Filling Btations ...
Halls of the buildings at the college of
Mount St. Joseph on the Ohio are now
equipped with ink filling stations. A
penny in the slot will release enough ink
for a fountain pen filling.-The Lenoir
Rhynean.
Body Mechanics ...
A course in body mechanics was re
cently installed at Duke University. Stu
dents are taught various bodily exercises
and manuevers, beginning with posture in
standing, sitting, walking and how to re
lax, through how to raise windows, climb
stairs, and jump from elevated places,
and ending with how to dance, swim, and
play baseball and basketball.
Ersidne on the Airways ...
Erskine College is the third institution
of higher learning to become affiliated
with Anderson's radio station WAIM,
presenting tri-weekly broadcasts from a
studio on the campus. Other colleges
making similar broadcasts over this sta
tion are Clemson and Anderson.
Tar Heelians Pay Fees ...
University of North Carolina students
must pay athletic and publication fees
according to a recent ruling by the board
of trustees. In seeking "an interpreta
tion of the rulings on fees," University
officials were told that they are "charge
able and collectable."
Learning to Laugh ...
The University of Florida has added a
unique course to its curriculum, aiming
solely toward the development of a sense
of humor. Students are taught to view
life from the standpoint of a spectato:
at a comedy, to recognize the comic ele
ments in situations, and above all to per
ceive the comic elements in themselves.
subsidization . ..
A survey conducted recently by Th<
Ring-turn Phi at Washington and Lee re
vealed tlhat of the 194 players on th<c
varsity squad, 115 received financial aid
during the past season. Sixteen footbal:
players there received $5,460, an averag(
of $335 per player.
The Ring-tumn Phi estimated that ovez
60 per cent of the football players in th<
Southern Conference received financial
aid last fall, and that around $110,000 was
used for this purpose in spite of th<
Graham Plan.
Ideals. ..
The ideal college: The University ol
Michigan excuses all students who attent
school dances from all classes from
p. m. the afternoon preceding until 12
a. m. the morning following such events.
The ideal professor: The University of
North Carolina instructor who assigned
"two hours of sleep" to an early morning
class because lie was tired of seeing his
pupils dloze-ThIe Tiger.
Register at Leisure . ..
The University of Florida has comn
pletely abolished long waiting lines at
registration. Under the new plan, blanks
are issuedl by the registrar upon presenta
tion of receipt for fees paid, and students
may register during a period of two
weeks. Deans of the various schools post
their office schedules, and the students
have their courses approved during these
hours.

Chapel Hours
Not Too Long
Says Professor Greer
In "Good Old Days" Student

Twice A Day

In the old days, students had to at
tend worship in chapel twice a day
according to Edwin L. Green, profes
sor of ancient languages at the Uni
versity.
The officials became more lenien
and made the requirement for worshil
only once a day, that being in th
norning. If a student who possesse<
membership in a local church or go
written permission from home, h
would be allowed to go to church ii
town.
Services in the morning were hel,
for one hour, beginning at 10 A. M
and the churches in town met at 11:1!
which gave the students a chance t
go from the campus to church.
Chapel services were discontinue
about 40 years ago and students wer
required to attend church in towi
once a day, and to answer "yes" o
"no" for attendance at the roll call o
Monday morning. When roll wa
given up, students had to report at

The old story goes that the 11:3
hour for Sunday services in Columbi
is due to the necessity of allowinj
housekeepers to get through thei
breakfast and clean up, said Dr. Greer

BY SPRUCE WHITE
The other day we saw a collegi
ate cut-up haughtily tripping across
one of the ever muddy streets be
tween the campus and the "main
drag." On his way across the car
cluttered thoroughfare, he passed
a humped, bent creature clad in
coarse rags. She, with slow drag
ging footsteps, was making her
way toward the opposite curb.
The one with the haughty mien
had completed his passage when
it seeped into his exam befuddled
brain that which was being en
acted behind him. He inmmedi
ately retraced his steps and with
a tender hand guided the old wo
man safely to the other side of the
street. With a cheery "Goodbye,"
he left her to continue on his hur
ried way.
She was probably somebody's
mother even if she was black.
With meticulous care, he shaved witl
a new blade, massaged his face, an<
rubbed in the lotions, lie scrubbec
his person with the care of a diligen
cook cleaning her sink. He donne<
his newly pressed trousers from th<
height of a chair to avoid wrinkling
them and dleftly fitted the pert litth
bow tie. By aid of his trusty mirror
he put on coat and over-coat with tha
pretty scarf she gave him for Christ
mas. He was off with a final glanc<
in the mirror-off to see his honey(?)
The way was short, the moon wvas
bright and in no time he was there
visions of the loveliness dancing
through his head, Hie knocked ani
was greeted by her roommate wvith
"I've got something for you and it's
not X--either."
A note he got: "Sorry, Dad jus1
came for me. Just rnust go home.I
hope this will not upset your plans
much."
