Mrs. McKissick's Issues Of Gamecock Lists Wide Assortment Of Birds At No. 8 University Campus there is a small room papered in a design of silver cocks and contain ing shelves whosc main function is to house Gamccocks. Not the crowning variety, but those of glass, china, jade, ivory, bronze, and a variety of other materials of every size and description are the collec tion of Mrs. J. Rion McKissick. Airs. McKissick has been collect ing gamecocks for almost four years; most of them have been sent and brought hack from other coun tries-China, France, England, and Pacific islands. One of the newest is a handsome cock sent from Cas ablanca by an alumnus of USC, now a captain in the army. Vhen we went over to see Airs. MeKissick, she pointed out to us that the gamecocks so neatly ar ranged on the shelves were,.as all gantecocks should, playing ant ac tive part in Carolira life. One shelf contained a column .f cocks strut ting along in perfect formation iiclh reiresented the ROTC. On another slelf two were in a boxing ring whlie nemiarb y gamnecock teams played football. Others huddled around a piano exemplified the Glee Clul. MIany of the gamecocks of Ars. MIeKissick are in the form of pins. It is scldom that she is seen with out one on her dress or the lapel of her coat. Mrs. McKissick also has a fascination assortment of pic tures of cock-lights. One pair of prints is dated 17:7. We happened to wntid Ir w\hat was the difference I twetn a rooster and a gamecock? \Ius. IlKissick laughed and said that the gamecock was a :nuch tore stalwart and courageous bird.

Howard Peterson, who has been working here for two monhs, made his living by writ ing poetry until his family got too large, then he had to go to work, but he says that he enjoys work ing as well as writing. His poetry conies to him while he is working, and he will type it then, or some times it comes to him in a dream and he will write it doWn next morning. The colored versifier worked for the "Baltimore Times" in Mary land in 1928 and has also con tributed to the "Gainesville Sun" and "Jacksonville Times" in Florida. Though he has had some of his poems printed and sold them on the street for fifteen cents a copy, he has aspirations of having a book compiled sonic day. Howard has always enjoyed writ ing verse, but lie doesn't read poetry very much. He says, "There's a heap o' stuff in my head that has to conic out." One of his latest compositions is printed below in the original copy: COMING BACK. Do you know funny things Happens. To a fellow At times. 0 well. These are the same old moon The same old stars.
