Too. Late To Class ... By PAUL "SCOOP" LEAGUE - THE FOLLOWING HAPPENED AT MIDNIGHT They built his curiosity up with tales about two farmer's daughters, the same brand as the popular joke, and finally set the night to take him to call on them . . . The fact that one doesn't call on even farmer's daughters that late didn't occur to him .. . His date's name was Mary, the boy that was double dating with him said just before they turned into the sandy country lane . . . "And, by the way," the d-d added, "their old man gets tight all the time and is tough." . . . When the car pulled up at the designated rendez vous, the hero, a U. S. C. gallant, jumped out and started calling for Mary . . . As he did a gruff voice leaped out of the black saying, "I'll teach you to call on my daughter at sich a time," and a double-barrelled shot-gun went off . . . So did our hero of course, and it's reported he ran three miles. This is just to tell that hero, that the farmer was really one of his so-called friends, and that instead of farmer's daughters behind the shrub bery there were really about 15 other Gamecocks, including one professor. * * * * AND NOW A GUEST COLUMNIST For the past weeks the Board of Publications have criticised this column. I asked them if they thought they could do better, to take over. I give you Miss Elizabeth Bird, secretary of the Board of Publications: * * * * Greetingsl I can't type, but I'm typing, I can't wrtie, but I am writ ing. Non-sensical? Sure, but somebody asked me to and I thought I could. And I feel just like the crow that Aesop wrote about, "I ain't got no cheese." I promised to try, so Scoop, here is a days vacation without pay, yes, but nobody gets paid for operating a machine that is as much fun as this job is anyhow. Flattery, that instrument that got me in all this, is a peculiar thing. And so prevailing. Complete immunity is an impossibility. Sug gestion for a way to spend the infirmary's $70,000 is to have them put in a special clinic for treatment on this line. Susceptibility to this ail ment is more common than measles or flu, and in the long run can do a lot more damage. Here I am lodged in Bewilderment, which is a community entirely too exciting for this weak heart. I am supposed to be eliminated from this institution in a few weeks along with a couple hundred other seniors. When we conic back for a reunion in 1951, this will be a different Carolina. It is not the same place we came to, and it certainly will not be static when we leave. There has been much talk about the replacement of the old traditional phyiscal structure with newer architecture. It seems to me that as students we should hope for change. We accept Mr. Darwin's theory partially but we encourage it little in our mental processes. We have a great Carolina-but we can contribute a lot to its future. after all this I am about to decide what I want to write about. The Future. But I don't know anything on that subject either. The Past, no, because I remembered not to remember. And The Present, subject matter here is very brief. Oh, Scoop, I am going to get a dope. This is about to finish me. And you have the brunt of this to take. You asked me; I warned you. But punk guest editors are like punk guest speakers, you can't help their lack of talents. Gee whizl Maybe I will be "too late to class." * * * * That, ladies and gentlemen of Carolina was the Board of Publi cation's attempt to be funny, what do you think?

Earthquake Shocks Recorded At USC Mercer Reported Tremors Seismeograph Recorded Violent earth shocks were re corded by the seismograph at the University of South Carolina re cently and lasted approximately two hours. The shocks were most severe during the first ten minutes of the disturbance. Prof. C. F. Mercer of the physics department at the University, who checks the seismograph reports daily, was unable to tell where the shocks originated, but he said the intensity was so great at times that the recording medium was swung beyond the record sheet.
