USC Bond Asked To Play At Darlington On High School Day Members Will Accept If They Are Excused By Absence Committee Members of the University of South Carolina band have been in vited to play for the annual high school day at Darlington, S. C., sometime in April, according to Dean George E. Olsen, Director of the band. "Members of the band will accept the invitation, if the committee on absences allows class cuts free from penalties," stated the Dean. The band is now working on sev eral concert arrangements after a football season dominated by march ing music. Two of the pieces now in the repertoire are "Seminola," a foxtrot, and "Andante Cantabile" by Tchaikowsky. The "Andante Can tabile" is from the symphony from which the popular song, "Moon Love," was taken. Music for the Southern Confer ence boxing matches was also fur. nished by the band.

It shows what a Belgian gets to eat during an entire day. He gets:-eight ounces of bread and one-third of one ounce of fat. He gets an ounce and one-half of meat, no bigger than a third of a package of cigarettes and not even one whole potato. Then he has an ounce and three-quarters of sugar. This photograph was taken in New York City, but is based upon authentic information from over seas, sent to the Nailonal Commit tee on Food for the Small Democra cies, of which Mr. Herbert Hoover is honorary chairman. Three faihine experts whom he ordered into Bel glum reported on the true situation. Theoretically, rations are larger. For instance, there should be five potatoes in the above picture, also a tiny heap of beans, a bit of oat meal and some "ersatz" coffee.

The food values on the plate rep resent only 1038 calories. Slow starvation, this. Literally! But worse is to come! By February's end the bread ra tion will disappear from the picture -because bread grain stocks will be exhausted and can be replaced only from overseas.

Flat Tire Br Grips With By AL EGERTON "Sure it's a flat tire," Quinn remarked disgustedly, "I ought to know, Ive been out with enough of them." With sundry murmurings and mutterings, a large portion of the Gamecock staff piled out of the car to survey the situation. A flat tire it was and a beauty. Had it been any flatter there wouldn't have been any tire. When the accident occurred, the staff was on the way back to the campus, having t a k e n Duck Sweatman home after the weekly blowout up town. The auto was proceeding up Main when a tell tale bumping became. noticeable. At first attributed to the rough paving, it was revealed in its true light when the car began to list rather heavily to the right.

So work on the tire progressed with Jimmy Hill gleefully threat ening to kick the jack from under the bumper. When the spare was about to be attached, Quinn suddenly dis covered that one of the bolts was missing. Crawling about on hands and knees, the staff searched in vain for the elusive metal. After ten minutes of this, Quinn dis covered the bolt in his coat pocket. "It musta been there all the time," he remarked brightly. The staff members closed in with the loudly announced inten tion of committing murder. They were mollified by the information that the car was now ready to go again.
