MUSCLIN IN With Ed Patterson Innocent notes of an innocent bystander... If pictures in the papei nean anything somebody's mopping up with the dough supplied to th< debutantes by papa... And those on the outside pronounce the Thursda) nite doings a racket... By an nocturnal route venerable Venable Vermoni came to the rescue of Dean Frierson over at the Law School and only the quick thinking roommate Hamlet kept.the lab from trudging to thc aforementioned place in pajamas in the early hours of the morning, il was all a dream... Special note to those who owe Joyce Hetzel money: You lose, Butch!' It's a nine pound nephew... Columbia College's bru nette bombshell, Emma Hane Steadman was on the other end of a standing-up engagement with K A's Frank Bryant, who no longer re ceives letters from Duke.. .We hope that will fulfil our promise to Beverly... Eagerly looking forward to the 17th of December and visit of high school's Faye Lowman is one Frick guy who says introductions will not be in order.. .Nominations for the nicest telephone voice of the week: for many weeks we have been trying to muster enough courage to call 7063 but to no avail... After finding a good excuse we'll put Ann Cathcart down in our blue book for a permanent position. ..Coach Reese has issued an invitation for all men weighing over 230 pounds to join his fencing team...Mildred Doe and Alvin Coleman aren't like that about each other any more... And the cold-shouldered woman, Jane Blizzard is still saving her heart for an assistant professor of English at the University of Chicago. Now that intramural season is here Dr. Law and staff of the infirmary are expecting a rush... Our personal thanks to Evelyn Henry for the in formation about Frankie, but she has been transferred..The romantic words of Pi Kappa Phi's Jimmy Wilson are now being listened to by Frances Peyton... Strike last week's tip about the blond off the record... Fry's constant male companion now is Buck Perrin and it looks a long way from matrimony. .If the chapel speakers think that notes on their talks are being taken for reference by the girls and boys with writing pads, they are mistaken..It's just lab work in shorthand... Never again will we announce another engagement. It took us nine weeks to live the last one down and get P. W. to speak to us.. .That anonymous post card with all the slang trimmings is now in the hands of postal in spectors. Scenes seen... Mrs. "Colonel" lugging a pile of books through the canteen... A Phi Sigma Kappa pin on our Brenau girl friend... With no feelings hurt... Palmer McClellan holding down a canteen seat with nifty Martha Hancock, lately from the University of Tennessee. ..Clarke McCants blushing when the Thanksgiving incident up at Fasley is men tioned.. .Ernie Lent generously tipping a Charlotte waitress just because she remembered his name.. .Charlie Gerald putting on an intelligent ex pression in Torts class... Two freshmen and one upperclassmen all males, looking back when debutante Emily Wolfe passed by.. .and a male in the art department saying that a potter couldn't have lone better on Emily Johnson's figger even though she has gained five pounds since school started. We've wondered why but never knew: Jimmy Pearce and Mary Dana don't get a monopoly on each other..Why Patty Breeden didn't pay off her just debts when she made that "C" on geology..and why Georgianna Reese apparently stays in hiding.. Elinor Brand and Bill Bauknight called it quits.. .and why Ken Roskie has been seen lately around the Tri-delt house.. .Certainly he wasn't looking for antiquated papers..Why Adelle Moses and Carl Atkins don't start another hair growing contest to com pete with Dingle... And why the art department always sews up the seats in the canteen before the rest of the school gets there...Why Katy Beaty has to be so darn good looking and yet so intangible.. .Why Billy Mc Garity is the most sought after man on the campus.. .by Jack Reese. Never were we more surprised than when we found out about the violent crush Make has on Stein and vice versa.. .And thatiks, Dick for the information... And the gals fencing team is quite the stuff, especially the Maggie McGinty part of it... Withington changes again, looks like it's getting to be a weekly event.. .but this time from a prince to a general. ..We'll bet the recent Alpha Sigma Sigma initiation wvon't make the Society column this week. ..That's all for nowv, more next week from the fellow who wvonders wvhy Peggy Forbes doesn't come up to the Gamecock office any more, thus explaining the lousy editions of this column in recent weeks.

Construction has also started on the entrance gateways and the rebuilding of the old wall on Sumter street. The same design will prevail at this location. It was necessary to remove the old low brick fence because the mortar had decayed, the wall was crumbling and had to be rebuilt. The new wall is being reconstructed out of the original brick and will be * of the same height and appearance as the old wall.
