Managing Editor Euphradian Society Gets Riled Over Gamecock Editorials The Euphradian literary society is rising. Hurrah! A front page story carries the details, as far as printable, of what happened at the meeting. No doubt, we will get plenty of read able copy out of then before they settle back into their pleasant mediocrity. The last 6amecock purge was sponsored by the Clariosophians who have been gentlemenly enough to remain out of this quarrel so far. Definite action by the Euphradian was de ferred until next meeting after a wonderful time was had by all at the expense of us. It seems that the boys object to the edito rial style and theory *of The Gamecock. They objected to this and that and so much that our head felt like a stepped on cream-puff be fore we heard the complete report. We have tried to explain before that ou1r theory of editorials is not the traditional one. In fact'it would not he acceptable on any news paper in the country. We did not intend it to be. We deliberatelv set out to be a little dif ferent and deliberately intel to keep on in the sane way. As far as we are concerned, the Euphradians may go to the place where the head guy is red and has a forked tail. 0 Maryland Boxing Coach Gives This Publication His Personal Approval lere's something said by Harvey Miller, Maryland boxing coach and former sports ed itor of the Washington Times-Herald, con cerning this publication. Miller nade the coinnient while in Coluin bia for the Southern Conference RBoxing tour nanent several weeks ago. Said Miller. "'he Gamecock is one of the best college papers I have ever seen. I like the metropolitan flavor of the make-up." Th1aL, :'unids good bUwe have never been north of the Mason-Dixon. We are merely fol lowing the style of last semester's editor (who shall be nameless here fore vermnore). "Gone With The Wind" Is Breezily Discussed By Somebody Else. Heprinted in the Letters to thec Editor col umiin is a reviewv of tihe p)ictulre version of "Gonie With ThetV Wind."' We hope it (toes not olfend our1 readers. Several dlelightfuil phrases and1( similies are used tha;t mtake Ius jealous anid plenty sorry that we dIid not think of them first. lDr. H avilahi Babicock more or less shares the( senltimlenlt of thei review as lhe has repeatedl to his class'es a numiber oft timtes. lie was the guy that gave us the clipping. Tihe amazing thing is that the criticisml was writ ten lby a Southerner. Gamecock Delivers The Goods On Time Phi Beta Kappa makes the front palge of The 7a,ntecoelb andti we summiarize the situia tioni for you. In 18925 the Uniiversit yapplies for a charter to the honorary scholastic fraternity. It arrives, is lost, and1 that's that. In 1925 somebody finally gets aroulnd to finding it and getting a chapter installed. By 1910 The (/amecock gets the story. 'This is what we call sp)eedly faculty ac tion andl up-to-date coverage of the news. Personal Note To the few Euphradian members who de fended the maligned name of the editor we give thanks. The others better be careful. Recently, the local newspapers carried a story of a man who dropped dead from laughing at a joke. Fortunately, the joke was not printed. Next week we may run the joke just to get even with the dissenting Euphiradians. They'l be sorr then, ASSOOIATES d Frick, Phillip Wilmeth, Bernie Bass, G A 'atterson, Deward Brittain, Joe Kirby, McOants, Dan Henderson, Leonard Turn Busines Associates: Bill Bauknight, Pitcher. ROER aatred a Some Carolina Girl May Get Movie Pass To Illinois Theatre We would like to explain that The Game eock is not running competition to the his torical May Queen balloting which will end Ill) about the same time as the Movie Queen contest which we are sponsoring. Each sorority may nominate two contestants and the Co-ed Association may nominate eight non-sorority girls by sending the pic tures to The Gamecock. After a board of beauty experts (to be an nouinced next week) picks the most beautiful Carolina girl, Paramount pictures will choose the winner from each state. These 48 pic tures will be run in Oforie Avd Radio Guide Maga-ine in the May 3 issue. Readers of the magazine will vote and the top 12 will at tend the world premiere of a picture called "Those Were The Days." which we hope is not a western. We are letting a board pick the campus win ner becaise we think the general student body knows a I)eautifll girl abiout as well as they know what should be in The Gamecock. With a little luck, the Tniv%ersitV (.alI get. some Iblicity of a sort out of the whole thing. It should he fairly easy to get one of our girls judged the best in the state. And if voted one of tile top 12 she travels to Illinois with all expenses paid including one admis Sion to the movies. We know a good joke that would. fit right here bIlt we'll save it until next week. Carolina Pep Song Is In The News Again As Coleman Functions Three weeks ago The Gumecoc-k opened a caIpaign to get a new pep song for the Uni versitv. Fred Waring's arranger was to write it if enough interest was shown. Well, the student body has its chance Mon day when President George Coleman presents a resolultionl requesting that Mr. Waring per form the said act. If it is approved, that part of the job is donle. We now make the folh: ving su10gestions to George. First, cliip the original story whlich appeared in T1he Gamerock. Then clip) the original ed itoriail from the same issue which advocated te plOIan and get letters bm-uking the pro0ject from various camus leadlers. professors, etc. Send all these to Fred Waring with the passed resolution. it' might also send along this brief s<linih. Afler all, we are sinucerel v inuterestedi in see inig (Carolina: get a really good fight song. The Editor Worries Over. Some Problems That Are Problems It's silly' but somuetimues we think that we are' cirazv. La:st Saturday e'verythling was perfect for a wondlerful a fternoon--no work, a couple1( of nmew maugaizimes, meie weather-a perfect after noon1 for mIedh~ittion. But, onl account of a 1box of assortedl cracek ers, it was ruined. .J ust he fore settling inito ourm special chair, we' ran i across the crackers. You've seen them --a whole box of various sizes andt flavors. We began to eat andl read the latest Air !/os?/. In a-"few mlinutes, something vaguely began to b)othIer us. The feeling grew strong er anti stronger. Th len we realized1 what it was. The assort ed crackers were becoming a problem. We couldn't decidle which to eat next anti which to save for last. We discarded the magazine and spent the next hour solving that problem. After some difficulty, a chocolate cracker was savedi for the finish. Never again, we swore (in Esperanto so tile Euphradians would not understand anti criticise), would we touch a collection of as sorted' crackers. You understand, of course.
