CAMPUS COURSE
Now that three or four weeks of actual school are all that's
left of the perfectly good semester we started off with-time
can be taken to put "spring" into the words that are the copy
for this column. A week ago to-night an inestimable number
swung out with the Sigma Nu'F at the Jefferson. It was pre
ceded by a banquet .for the Sigma Nu's and afterwards the
dancers were entertained at various parties till the wee small
hours. The Grand March, in a new arrangement, was led by
Rannah Heyward and Coit Hendley. To add to the speciul no
break after the Grand March Bessie Heyward sang in a very
special way their fraternity song, "The Sweetheart of Sigma
Nu.
Now is the time of year for teas, parties and picnics and all
the sororities are planning end-of-the-term get-togethers and
most of *them out-of-doors. Thursday afternoon the Kappa
Kappa Kappa's entertained the patronesses and mothers of the
members of the sorority as well as all other sorority girls at a
lovely tea at Fay Reyner's. It was from four thirty to six
o'clock. Last Sunday night the pledges of Tri Kappa gave
their active sorority sisters a supper banquet at Bihari's.
Last Thursday night the Delta Zeta's had a ever so pleasant
barn dance out at George's Pond. Some really good costumes
came out of the idea and the dance was so informal the fun
was spread to all. The refreshments were in tune with the
party.
The Pi Beta Phi's have elected their officers for the com
ing year. Ray Overton was reelected president, Billie Coffee,
vice-president; Elinor Brand, corresponding secretary; Char
lotte Burch, recording secretary; Jane Cox, treasurer; Irene
Mars, Pan-Hellenic representative. They are having a joint
meeting of pledges and actives with supper served next Mon
day. Dink Gaines has been invited to speak to them.
The Chi Omega's are planning to have a picnic to take ad
vantage of the lovely weather. It is set for Wednesday after
noon and the scene will be Heise's Pond. Last Friday night
four of the chapter went down to the Chi Omega Formal at
Charleston. The lucky girls were Marion Jean Campbell, Eva
Abbott, Jeanet,e Watts and Edith Ford. They had a wonder
ful time and say it was well worth the trip.
The Art Exhibit opens May twelfth with all the work of
this year's crop of students on display. This year it's going to
be held in the new Art rooms on second floor of Flinn Hall.
Lots of good work has beenl done this year and then, too, the
exhibits of the Costume Design and Interior Decoration classes
will be an entirely iew section of the exhibit. Thp Art. De
partment here is by far the most outstanding in this section of
the country and it will be well worth any student's time to
trot over and see the accomplishments set forth.
A. 1). Pi-Anne Heath has had a visitor, a Georgia Peach,
Roselee Jones from Macon. . . . She was here thru Thursday. .. .
Mary Cecile Brabham is going on a house party at Bluffton,
that favorite river place, this week-end. . . . Mary Elise Living
ston is going to Citadel for one of their famous Mess Hall dances

Efird, are going on a house party with the Kappa Alpha's of
Davidson this week-end.. . . Adelyn Lipscomb is going to the
track meet at P. .. . . Mary Hazel Aiken is to go to May Day
at Queen Chicora. . . . June Webb is planning to go to Military
Day at Clemson this Sunday...and so is Maude Byrnes Chisholm.
D. Z.-Mary Alice Porter really had a real house party of
girls with her this past wveek-end . . . Lil and Ida Huiet, Mar
garet Shackford, Sara Ruple and Dot Sample. .. . Celeste Her
sey and Ruth Easterlyn are going to spend the week-end at
Limestone. . .. Catherine Toal is going to Hendersonville....
Helen Burch wvent to Clemson for the Moonlight Parade and
dance afterwards and Saturday she went to Pawley 'a Island
for the week-end.
Chi O.-FloBsie Simpson had a birthday so she wvent to Dar
lington to celebrate. .. . Durrett Lipscomb, Kat Hines and Mary
Mathis are planning to go to Hartsville to see the Coker May
Day. . .. Somebody wvent to Durham to a Phi Delt dance.. ..

The May Day this year will be held in the Field House at
night. The girls wvill enter twvo by two and the colors used
are beautiful. Neoma, the Queen, will wear white of course,
and Rannah, the Maid-of-Honor, will wear pink. The Maids
wvill be in blue, aquamarine rose, violet, peach and chatreuse.
After the event will be the May Queen Ball.
At last-at long last-it seems that there will be a varsity
show this year . . . and with all the rehearsals and all the
people in it, it should be interesting, and perhaps good. For
one thing, you'll like that little torch ballad, "'I've Simply
Gotta Have a Man.'' It has a tune that strangely enough goes
with the title and Bessie Heyward has the job of putting over
lyrics by Ellen Verner and Jeanette Propst. The tune wvas by
Max Husbands and Charlie Murtiashaw.
Other contributions currently ''ooed'' and ''ahed'' over in
clude "I 'd Rather Be Alone With You," "Idle Dreams," "Gas
hlouse Moll," which incidentally are only three of at least a
dlozen originals featured in the show. (Note: Thank heavens,
none of the composers attempt to sing.)
That's all.

a new talent, that of soap sculpture.
During some extra time in class she

nativity. Both teacher and class were
surprised to see the figure of Joseph
