Hamby, QMC, drove nursa and wounded to the hospital and went back again and again to bring in more of the injured. He made seven trips in all and won the Distinguished Service Cross. How many Third War Loan Bonds can you yourself afford, to match those seven trips of Private Hamby? U. S. Treasury Depsernesi First of all, let's not kid ourselves. And let's not indulge in any foolish rationalizations about what we're going to do when we "get out there." We mean right now, and right now the average Carolina student is worse than useless to this nation's war effort. We drive down to Myrtle Beach or bat around town on gas tickets bought from the black market. We wail like so many babies without their bottles when we can't get what we want to eat or drink. Prob ably the average English citizen, wandering about Columbia or our campus, would have serious doubts about just which side we were on. He could only go by what we do. M inor O ffice K . S.

Said the Chief by run over it myself. But then." A few agitators about the cam-4 pus who are obviously short on patience and long on imagination have started gossip to the effect that, merely because the Garnet and Black is three months late, it is not coming out. In reply to this, Miss Mildred Brown, present editor of the G&B, stated, "Well golly. Aren't we worth waiting for? Huh?" Particularly rife among Navy students has been a rumor based on speculations about the unprece dented number of co-eds coming to the University for the fall term. Some have said that after October a poor sailor won't be safe on the campus unescorted after dark. We hasten to say that this rumor is without basis in fact. The campus police force is alert, capable, and ready. Furthermore, although the facilities of Sims and Wade Hamp ton will be strained by the task of housing this particularly large fe male registration, residents of the various tenements need have no fear that impositions will be forced on them. A particularly nasty and vicious part o this hurricane of whisper campaign came to our attention re cently when a sophisticated senior hielsed over a coke in the canteen, "B- told me that he heard some one in the back row at a Euphra dian meeting whisper, 'Life at Car olina would be complete without the Gamecock'l" We of course gasped one of our most gurgling gasps, placed a discreet finger on our lips, and hissed back, "Shhhhh. The very co-eds have ears." We dragged this deluded soul outside, reverently uttered the name Robert Elliot Gonzales, and further bat tered him back into line with one of Freeman's jokes. Yes, he rea lizes now that life at Carolina would not be complete without the Game cock, but-we tremble to think of it-perhaps there are others. Some of the rumors that have come to our attention, however, have been based on unfounded optimism. Tfake the one about the Clariosophic Literary Society. Someone said that they were going to supply cut glass ash trays and copies of the Open Road for Boys by their seats about the campus. This of course is utter fallacy. After all they haven't even gotten them cleaned off yet.

But we were just thinking if Farragut would have lived in his tory if he'd said, "Oh darn those nasty old torpedoes. Full speed ahead." We wonder if General Sherman's description of war would still be considered quite to vivid if he'd blushed at the crucial moment and said "War is--(blush) really devil ish business." Or if Rhett Butler would have achieved his glorious romantic reputation if he'd taken leave of the Scarlet Scarlet with the words, "Frankly, my dear, I don't give a heck."

Before the decision to have a team came out, he was asked what he thought of the idea of not having a team. He replied, "Him tired of nailing nails 'n' liming lines 'n' getting him clothes all dirty. If Him goin' to be trainer, Him got tuh practice." So now the old training room will ring again to the sound of two-score or more boys yell ing, "Him, where's the dex trose." "Burrhead, get a move on." "Where's an ankle-wrap, nigger." And Him will once more put them on their toes with his favorite axiom, "If Him can't fix, Him cut him off," 'which is typical of his in- g cessant play on one pronoun, him, which is used to denote himself, the person spoken to, and the person spoken of.
