MUSCLIN' IN With Ed Patterson Scattered scraps of nosey news... To start this issue's ball rolling we begin by apologizing to all of the people we supposedly made mad last week..-. But we weren't fooled, we know they love to see their name in the paper regardless of what goes before or after it ... While the unat tached males of the species get bluer every day with this stormy weather, those with gal friends seem to be doing right well for themselves and hand holding has become the fad with Frances Childs and Rock Yar borough, the former spending 90% of her non-class time now in the canteen... Ditto on the love stuff to Deva McCarter and Shirley In man... And A. T. O.'s musical prodigy David Parker's pledge servants came in handy not so long ago when they escorted him home from a wedding reception ... Even if she did win one-hundred and fifty dollars, and we're not mercenary, we'll chalk up a score on our list for very venus-like Evelyn Henry... For further details as to Lollie McCant's new nickname, "Coach," we'll have to ask you to see Jimmie Galloway... BACK FROM DETROIT are those four acnies of journalism, League, Sweatman, Sansbury, and Howe... Howe became a member of the Brooklyn Dodger's, while Sansbury was appointed to the office of U. S. C. ambassador to Canada, with the title "Duke of Windsor"... Sweatman, who had to remain true to the gal friend at home did chaper on duty to "Scoop" League and Clara Lou Carstenson on the trip to Canada in her car ... Rumor has it that erstwhile Pi. K. Aian Bob Schwinn had the pleasure of kissing his first girl out at Providence, S. C., recently.. . Speaking of osculations, Sarah Morrison advises that the best way to win a smooch is "to pull the wool over the guy's eyes, rather than shut your own"... A number of the popular debs who journeyed down to "the city by the sea" last week for the bellhop hop are trying to keep their names out of the society columns since they handed in sick excuses ... And the belle of the legal school, Maude Byrnes Chisolm's love for criminal law class goes further than the fact that her "Dictator" is in it .. . Ask the professor why... This space was saved for a nasty crack at a certain campus dramatic organization but since we regard the incident too unworthy of note, we'll skip it ... At least for the time being... And the triple D (meaning Mary Hull Kaminer) has learned to jitter bug... Senator Tom McCutcheon, he of ballyhoo (another word for hot air) fame, brought cute Jane Perry to a mess hall supper to hear "Butcherboy" Gibbe's famous orchestra and the band didn't even show up ... We'll probably get our necks chopped off in the process of saying this, but we'll go on record for saying that the students hereabouts should demand more respect and courteous service from the two members of our campus constabulary ... Last Tuesday nite the inhabitants of Preston College invited a negro piano playing genius into their lobby to perform, paying him quite a few pennies ... A few minutes thereafter, one of the judges threw the negro out and rebuked the boys for a sup posed violation of an unknown campus rule...We can name other instances ... After all, it's our maintenance fee that pays their salaries. AND WHILE WE'RE IN A GRIPY MOOD, we'll coninr with the suggestion of one not-so-dumb freshman that Thornwell College and Burney College be torn down so that passing motorist on 'Pendle ton and Green streets may be able to see the new library better... It seems that he was getting hepped up over the tearing down of our old wall and the digging tip of our historic campus so as to make the library more visible... One little Courtney girl, whose first name is Julia Anna, we think, has a collection of pulp magazines that would even put "Rat" Eugene "Fatstuff" Godshall to shame ... The last mentioned is planning on forming a H. W. C. (Harley Worship Club)... One of the students in the press box on the rainy night of the Citadel-Carolina freshman game, said in quote, about Marjorie McSweeney, "She's just standing out there to see if she really will melt"... A good crack, but we can't agree that it was anything else but school spirit which prompted her to do so... Talking about glory, Daniel Walker Hollis was in his prime last week-end with the appearance of that dainty Georgia peach Peg Williams on the campus...- And we had a swell time being entertained by her parents .. . A deck of "bridge" cards was the greatest loss sus tained by "Skip" Henry when his Tenement 29 room caught on fire last week .. The current social cabinet is doing a swell job at putting on better student dances... The one Saturday night was a wow ... And there are plenty more to follow .. . Brittain can't ethically pat himself on the back so we'll do it for him, his co-ed football idea was the biggest publicity stunt this ancient institution has seen in many a year ... Now that J. 0. B. is receiving a copy of The Gam,ecock weekly, this comment girl friend home on weekends .. . Last time it was a co-ed Med. at Charles is relayed to him: Better try to figure out a way to keep your local ton, and the future is booked for months ... The status of the Lib Bird Jimmie Lever romance is not known to us.... More details as soon as we hear from Lever... But the Bert Hill-Virginia Copeland match is doing o'k while Doug Parker, whlo has one of the lass' pictures, secretly pines away... Nothing more to print and less space to put it in so we'll close and remain, the puzzled guy who wonders why, and doesn't give a hoot because, fewer and fewer people speak to us after each issue ... 6'J s*aln St. colum bia. ? 4& *L ea rn .

Patrone saw service againsl the last two Hurricanes, but Sossa mon and Carter have yet to pii their stony torsos against the Big Wind.

And to re inforce the diminutive ace Dizzy McLcod depends on Dewey Proc tor, a pile driver from Lake View, whose specialty is wrecking oppos ing forward walls. Both teams are weak on reservc power, but Carolina is the more undermanned. Four Gamecocks have played the entire last four games. They are Harvey Blouin, back; Patrone, Soqmmnn and Carter. -RELIGIOUS EMPHASIS (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1) viewpoint of international relation ships in the present crisis.

"These napkins have been placed there for the benefit of student patrons who might need them," says Coleman, "and are not pro vided for boys and girls to .practice art work on, for stationery, or to make fancy lace." This service will continue just as long as the students take reasonable care of the napkin holders and do not litter the local general mer - chandise shop's floor with the pa per. The idea was tried several years ago but was abandoned when it became apparent that students didn't seem to know what they were provided for. -DETROIT (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1) McCarthy, editor of the Toledo paper informed us. "In fact, Urban and I studied English together in high school, and strange' as it seems, "the Jeep" made (A) on the course and I could only manage a (B)." Probably the most interesting af fair any of us attended was a ban quet given on Friday night by Gen cral Motors for the convention dele gates. At that time Charles F. Ket tering, vice-president of the motor corporation, delivered a very thought provoking message concerning jour nalists' place in America of the fu ture. On display at the convention was both The Garnet and Black and The Gamccock, along with the rest of the collegiate newspapers and yearbooks. Numerous roundtable discussions were held and new ideas advanced at tie convention. Carolina was represented on a roundtable discussion broadcast over the radio including five collegiate ed itors, by The Gamecock's editor. The topic was "College Editors And Democracy". On Saturday afternoon the four of us attended the T. C. U. University of Detroit football game played in Detroit's stadium and saw the Tex% ans lose by a 3-0 score. One of the most interesting of the things extra-curricula in point of en tertainment sponsored by the conven tion was a trip through the Plymouth automobile factory and a drive through the city.

Humorous part of the convention was the way business managers would huddle in little groups and talk of ex pense while editors would talk writ ing in their corner of the building. However, it was very likely that be fore too much business or editorial discusssion got underway at any gathering that the old north-south question about "who won the war" would come up. It is safe to say that no matter what the discussion, however, the state of South Carolina and especial ly the University of South Carolina was well represented. 0 Give 'em the and watch' A-C and research front in the I baccos to gi definitely mi fie "rOAct C.pyright 1940.
