ZSpon:-s or F. c Pen Feathers By Jane Cox Christmas comes but once a year. Mid-semester reports and Thanks giving come twice. So this week a wide variety of students took cuts and coats and went to Charlotte for the Carolina-Wake Forest game on the second Thanks giving. Others are even farther afield. The cutie-pie Forbes sisters, Peg and Mackey, are taking Ann (Stokes) Adams, Kat Edgerton, and Jane Perry home with them for the Army-Navy classic. Then tomorrow Betty Wertz and Anne Heath will be in Atlanta for the Georgia Tech homecoming game and festivities. And while we're on the subject of pigskin's, here's a four feather rating to the Block "C" Club, who sponsored Carolina's first excursion football trip. Excursion trains have been collegiate institutions in other schools for years. The student turnout and resulting good time had in Miami proves that this University can use the custom as well as its bigger college brothers. And the student body is the school's best publicity. Speaking of balls of one sort and another, Thanksgiving dances are still on the books. Lavinia Lyles, that pleasant bronze blond who's hair actually looks' good when it rains, is hopping a plane for Sewanee today. And Harriet Perkins, typically cosmopolite and always on the way somewhere is tearing up to Cornell for a few hops. Several other local lovelies are going to Clemson for the annual Tiger Ball. Among them are Mable Flitter, Mary Lowery, Ann Welch, Tut Douglas, Frances Watts, Lollie McCants, Esther Webster, and Ruth Henderson, that blond cover girl of a recent issue of DIXIE LENS. Next Thursday evening the evening of Smarter Columbia's Smartest Assembly Ball will officially put severil co-eds on the block. There will be Ann Cathcart, Evie Hampton, Grace Wadell, Kittums Belser, Elinor Flinn, Edith Bateman, Mackey King, Sally McCaw, Dot Ehrlich, Pat Salley; Kitty Bird, Emily Brown, Emily Wolfe, Betty Boineau, and Sally Nichols. Jane Wyllie spend her spare moments racing between Columbia and Florida, where she has been attending to debutant doings. And especially for the benefit of photogenic co-eds who habitually sponsor, here's the newly elected officers of the Phi Sigs: Tommy Conder, president; Jack Reese, vice-president; Arthur Spitz, secretary; Cecil Davis, treasurer; Elliott McCants, inductor (what ever that is) and Rembert Martin, sentinel. They're having a "banquet" Monday nite at Harvey's re-inaugurating their custom, of getting together at a weekly supper. And here's an r4 other appeal to co-eds-the suppers are to be co-educational. The Pi Phi Columbia alumnae entertained the activities and pledges last nite at an informal party. The old contest wtih baby pictures was one of the main features and brought hilarious rc3ults. Then yesterday afternoon Mrs. Welbourne and Mrs. Ferrell, Chi 0 patronesses, had a tea at Mrs. W's for the chapter. Terrestial-minded Kappa Sigs have taken time from campus affairs for a party. It was in the form of a dance at Sloans, on Wednesday, and really was in the words of their chief, a killer diller. And even the A T O's have come across. They'll have another of those active-pledge parties which make so much history out at the lake, Tuesday nite. And a typical A T 0 time will be had by all, no doubt. Here today and gone yesterday: While students, in general were basking in Florida or moping at home over the holidays, Jimmie Mulford and Frank Hoskins went on a wild tear up into the north.. Jimmie did eventually end up at his home in New Jersey, and Frank stayed somewhere above New York. Tommy "'teahound" Ingram took Jimmie Simpson and Bayes Moore to Cheraw with him for the holidays. Paulette West, of V. de M. proportions, spent mher vacation in Virginia, at the University where her brother is a student. And Marie Ulmer went to West Virginia for the wedding of her Mary Baldwin room mate. John Mullen explored over Delaware's Wilmington for his holidays. And several dozen more watched the age-old Furman-Clemson fight and bet accordingly. Bundles for Britain, the institutional excuse for almost any sort of charitable scheme, will take in more proceeds Monday. Selected co-eds will go to Tapps that day to act as one-day shop girls in the store. And when the five o'clock whistle blows, five per cent of the amount taken in by the force will be turned over to the Bundles. 'Plans for Christmas Carolina Club festivities are being made all around. The Pee Dee section's club has come out with an announcement of dancing on December 30. All the boys from that section, whether or not they are members of that club, are being asked to meet next Wednesday at 7:15 in the Law Building to formulate definite ideas. And so on back to bed. Christmas comes but one a year. Mid semester reports and Thanksgiving come twice. But this column comes weekly.
