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

That Man? A Schedule?
Why, Go Over To Maxcy?
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 !"

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. Bnt who isn't with
