Dugan Asks For -" Faculty Numbers Jack of all tr ades is Mrfzs. Rohert Dugan of the University telephone service who handles special-delivery letters, telegrams, and long dliptance calls for all University students at the switchb,oard in Maxcy College. But needing extra cooperation with present wartime difficulties on an overcrowded campus Mrs. D)ugan asks that the different departments on the campus mail in all faculty mem bers' and administrative officers home and office telephone numbers. Often outsiders wish to contact vis itors and speakers on the campus and it would facilitate matters were the names of the visitors' left at the switchboard. Mrs. Dugan sends out a plea for fewer and only necessary phone calls as well as for shorter conversations. Students are asked to refrain from using the switshboard as an informa tion- ecc6ter except whlen absolutely necessary I WEBB'S ART STORE * PICTURE FRAMES ARTIST MATERIAL * 1431 Main St..- Phone 2-4940.

This isn't any quiz game and we don't have a sixty-four dollar ques tion but-do you need a fourth for that rubber of bridge? Or do you want the schedule of that good look ing R..O. boy you just met? Or do you long for some nice reasonable quiet corner to meditate on that cal culus problem. Then don't take any ole substitute like Eli Culberton, or the Bureau of Missing Persons or red checked ear muffs, because we've got a much better solution. All can be found in the lobby of Maxcy. Besides having the aspect of a three ring circus, it's a second home to the Columbia day students. "I'll meet you at Maxcy" is Caro lina's newest tradition. Besides meeting your best girls there or getting to the well known 'bull session', there's always a con stant bridge game over in the cor ner, carefully watched over by a gal lery. A man walked with his friends along the line of cabinets which stand against the wall. He stopped in front of one big silver cup. "See," he said proudly, "my name, 1937". Mrs. Dugan and her operator al ways do a land slide business-Wade Hampton, Sims and Columbia Col lege. See what we mean? "I'll see ya at Maxcy !"

RTING GOODS Street m Street Although Coeds Laughter And N< Teachers Amazed Typical, Carefree Sims! I (Just in case you new fellows on the campus haven't found out, this is thg home of the beautiful Co-eds of our campus.) With the first showing of our "cool mountain climate" here in Columbia, the freshly painted chairs and tables were placed upon Sims porch for the lov ers, lovelorn, homesick, and hopeless. Truly, "Silver bells, cockle shells, and fair maidens all in a rut", may be found here. We students who are now living in Sims arc trying to adapt ourselves to the quiet nature prevailing because of the empty rooms all along each hall. I am afraid the teachers staying with us feel that they will never adapt themselves to the "noise". Don't worry. We are still the same, "w.e and us". The telephone still 'rings twice every half a second. radios arc going full blast throughout the day, and we're stil! :happy or sad most of the time. Never anything else. As one walks down the "mile death walk" from East Wing to West Wing or vice versa, it is still the same. Mayhelle has been talking over the telephone for at least two hours trying to convince Percy that she doesn't have a date so she can date that nice lieutenant that she met years ago. Mammie Belle is reading her days mail to roommates and suite-mates since their mail was a little slow in coming today. Sweet Mammie Belle: She'll share anything with you except her men when they are in person. Ah, look ! Clara Belle has just re ceived her diamond. A certain V-r2 on the campus will certainly be dis appointed. But Clara Belle didn't lead him on . . . Be quiet now. This is where Susie Belle lives and she's al ways acleep.
