Professor Yaghjii said that he'likes to lend the pi tures to sororities and fraterniti because he believes that such e hibits give incentive and indue n ment for hard work to art at 0S dents and might lead to purchas of some of the pictures.

S.--And what a w4 evenr changing Thanksgiving S Held At Vespe 2oy,ery,ing Oige As Damon Runyan Would Relate It By TED METIER What I am doing at a Naval Armory on the night of a large bridge tournament or any other night for that matter requires considerable explauation. It seems that a mob of guys, who call themselves the Kappa Sigma Kappa's hear that this bridge tournament dodge is a nice way to pick up a piece of change. Now these Kappa Sigma Kappa's are not such guys as I would care to take lightly. What's more they have a bunch of dolls who call themselves the Alpha Kappa Gam ma's who are in on the deal also. Between these two parties it seems that they can influence the citizens more than somewhat. In fact, they have a bridge expert by the name of Mrs. J. Q. Marshall, who is a very high-classed bridge player indeed, engineering the dodge for them. The reason they want to pick up this piece of change is to en large the McKissick Scholarship fund, which is a pile of scratch for the purpose of sending some de serving high school student through the USC brain-factory. It seems to me that this is a very worthy cause indeed. So, I looked up a guy by the name of Frank Culbertson, who can be reached on the other end of ex tension 16. This Frank guy says that any one of the Kappa Sigma Kappa's can trade you a ticket to E CUT FLOWERS WER SHOP Columbia, S. C. E 2-6781 'COS Monday thru Thursday embrance at 8 P. M.
