"Home and Family Life" Course Now Offered At USC By BETTY ANN PUTNAM Because of a definite need on every university campus, a "Home and Family Life" class has been organized at Carolina, giving two hours' credit. In the spring this will become a three hour course. The purpose of this elective is to give a better understanding of marriage and life. The divorce rate has been increasing and it is believed a class in marriage will help to cut divorces down. Under the auspices of the Homemaking department it gives a well-round ed insight into the various phases of home life. Some of these phases are family relationship, feeding and care of children, budgeting, investments, recreation, and religion. Departments helping with this course are Economics, Bible, Uni versity Architectures, Political Science, Art, Music, Physical Education, Psychology and So ciology. Choice of spring electives will be made soon and Mrs. Louise Cole will be glad to talk with you and further explain "Home and Family Life." Only juniors, se niors, or married students, both men and women, are offered this course.

A swv vugwfa u ca a Founders Day Zeta Sorority at the university 4 'he banquet was held at the Jefferi Boosters Club / To Bring Vaugh The following letter was re ceived by the society editor of The Gamecock from Bill Keith, presi dent of the Boosters Club. We are printing it in its entirety for your consideration. Dear Students: The members of the Boosters Club have gotten together and talked about a big two-day dance in the spring. It would be on Friday and Saturday night, with a tea dance on Saturday after noon from two until fivo (really serve tea? ? ? ?) This dance would only be open to 700 students, thus: first come first served. Each person would pay ten dol lars and in return he would be able to attend three dances-and dance to the music of Vaughn Monroe. Yes! it can be done. If North Carolina can do it, why can't we?

Of the 700 members (let's call a) them that) it can consist of men as well as women. Maybe some of the "Spooks" V would like to ask their best fel lows or even fathers! Or some y fellow can find a girl to go in a half with him (money that is). The reason for ten dollars apiece is that the band costs $7,000 for two days. It seems a lot of money (and it is). However, if 700 members pay, we can really have a fine time. We would like to hear from you all-pro and con. Just drop a line to Bill Keith, Box 2125, and we'll see what can be worked out. Remember - Vaughn Monroe soft light, good music, and that "spook." Gad! hold my feet, I'm galloping. Bill Keith President, Booster's Club.
