"Slim" Heyward
Overcame Back
Injury With Pillow
The University of South Carolina
campus once claimed the tallest man
in America and a football hero who
couldn't make a touchdown without
a pillow to his back.
On a recent visit to Asheville,
N. C., Dr. Thomas F. Ball, profes
sor of electrical engineering at the
University met up with one "Slim"
Heyward who was a classmate of Dr.
Ball's at the University from 1912
'15. Mr. Heyward who looks down
upon fellow mortals from the higher
altitudes-a little over seven feet
was quite famous among the student*,
as he was considered to be the tall
est man in the United States at that
time.
"We had a great time reminiscing
over old football (lays," said Doctor
Ball. "We dug up such names as
Fritz Von Konlita, John Mills, Dan
Heyward, and others."
Dan Heyward, a cousin of moon
fixer "Slim's", made a name for him
self on this campus.
"No more football for you, young
man," said the doctors to Dan after
he had received an injury in his back
in high school football. But Dan,
the undaunted, hit upon an idea-and
it worked, too. He entered the Uni
versity and pranced out on the grid
iron one day with a big fat pillow
stuffed in the seat of his pants. The
pillow gave Dan the necessary sup
port and down that field he went,
through the "enemy line" and over
the goal-perhaps, amidst flying
feathers, but he crossed it just the
same.
Dan and his pillow came to be a
superstition with the team. No pil
low-no score. But when Danny.boy
came out on that field with pillow
close behind it was a touchdown for

University of South Carolina, are,
as is customary each year, taking
over the Red Cross roll call of the
faculty.

nounced the reception by the Spanish
Club of a valuable first edition of
Spanish poetry, edited by Archer M.

philanthropist. The book was pre
sented by Bill Blackwell, who re
ceived it as a gift from Mr. H1lunting

Prof. Zeigler states, "This is in

its affairs, to the mutual advantage of
both."

Contract Signed
For installation
Of Switchboard
Two Students To Aid
In Installation
Of Switchboard
The contract for the installation -f
the new switchboard and the neces.
sary conduits throughout the labora.
tory was awarded several weeks ago,
announced Dr. Thomas F. Ball of
the electrical engineering department
at the University of South Carolina.
This was done in order to pay prices
on the materials at that time and pre
vent the University from having to
assume the additional burden of ris
ing prices.
The local contractor to whom this
contract has been let, has agreed to
employ two seniors in electrical en
gineering to assist in the installation
of all equipment. The students wil
be paid at the regular rate for their
work.
The -new switchboard is expected
to arrive about November 27, said
Doctor Ball, and it will be installed
along with other equipment in the
laboratory.
"We hope to be able to use the
laboratory for instructional purposes
next semester" he added.
