C One would say wvhile watching thet p canteen crowdl help Richard open ~ that dloor. But a glimpse at the personal readling of these jitter- is bugs tells a different story-the ? literary story. As one might ex- a p)ect, Shakespeare doesn't domi- s nate their spare evenings but ri rather novels of the lighter mod- ir ern vein. ti A check at McKissick library shows Kathleen Winsor's "Forevern Amber" still sharing a high place j with "This Side of Innocence" by a Taylor Caldwell, and Frederic p Wakeman's "The Hucksters." Pat a Frank's story "Mr. Adam" has a p waiting list longer than one would a care to think about while Charles t1 Jackson's "The Fall of Valor" Is si in constant demand. 'The stunt - Founded 1908 it At Eight; w Set Goal AKG Auction To Conclude Fund Drive Sorority stunt night will be held tonight at 8 p. m., in Drayton Hall for the benefit of the World Student Service Fund.

Davis, and someone else to be named later. Skits for each sorority and fra ternity will be of seven minutes duration, with all eight sororities and thirteen fraternities of the university taking part in the two events. Admission for each night will be twenty-five cents. The pro ceeds will go to increase the WSSF campaign solicitations. WSSF Progress Amalie Stone, stunt chairman, who is also treasurer of the cam paign, disclosed' Sunday, March 9, that slightly over $1,000 had been collected. "This is drastically be low the proposed progress of the campaign," she said. According to Miss Stone, approximately $600 of the amount collected was through student solicitations. About $400 was taken in through the combined efforts of faculty contributions, proceeds of an in formal dance, and a co-ed-faculty game. It was learned last night that Wade Hampton Cafeteria and Steward's Hall, university dining rooms, have contributed $75 each to the campaign.
