What a week! What wonderful parties- When am I ex
pected to study? These are some of the general comments
heard during this week. Could it be that the fraternities
are in the midst of a maddening whirl of parties for pros
pective pledges? Why yes! Pity those who are brave and
go to class! Monday night the Lambda Chis entertained at
"Club Lambda," commonly known as the Columbia Woman's
Club. Also on Monday, the KAs and their dates journeyed
to Heise's Pond on a blue jean party. It was a cabaret party
for the Sigma Chis Tuesday at the Woman's Club; the
SAEs celebrated at the Columbia Hotel, complete with skits
and singing waiters! (Well, what d'ye know?) Wednesday
the Phi Kappa Sigs put on a Cabaret party with music by
Eddie Helms and his orchestra. The Sigma Nus partied on
Wednesday night, also. Thursday night saw the ATOs and
the Kappa Sigs enjoying life in the right way. It was a
masquerade party for the Pi Lambda Phi in the Rathskellar
Friday; and the Phi Sigma Kappas moved to Heathwood
Park for a wiener roast. On the agenda for Saturday are
parties for the Pi Kappa Alphas at Gibson's Pond, the Pi
Kappa Phis at John D. Carrol's home in Lexington, and the
Pi Epsilon Pis at the Rathskellar. It is to be a reverse
party, the boys come as girls, the girls as boys. What fun!
The Compass and Chart members and dates danced from
S to 11 last night in the Naval Armory. K.S.K. is planning
a dance for the night of the 24th; ZTAs invite the student
body to a campus-wide drop-in from 6 to 8 the night before
the Wake Forest .game.
The Kappa Sigs banqueted at the Green I)erby Thursday
night. Some of the faces seen over the shrimp cocktail and
turkey were Martha Cunningham, ChiO, and Bill Dimmery;
Peggy Hedrick, KD, and Fred Gantt; Lib Caldwell, Tri Delt,
and Fran Talbert; Greta Miley, Pi Phi, and Candy Taylor;
"Booty" Wall, ChiO, and Tommy Teal. Mary Jumper's
house on the Camden highway was the scene of a house
party enjoyed by Mary Jumper, ChiO, and Pete Lane, Kap
pa Sig; B. J. McLean, ADPi, and Pat Cox, Kappa Sig; Jean
Bishop, ChiO, and F. D. Acree, Kappa Sig, and Charlie and
Margie McDade.
It looks as if Carolina people can be found on almost any
spot on the globe at the right time. How do they do it?

David Mobley, Harvey Goldyn, Harold Kline, Joe Barnett,
and Harold Bourgeoise rooting for the Gamecocks at Tulsa.

Doctor Tells
Why APCIs
FineCure-all
Ily JANE GERAtD'
Carolinm seems to be enjoying
one of tWe healthiest years ever. At
least that's the authorized opinion
of Doctor Henry Grady Waddell,
university physician. "About this
time last year," 5e informed us,
"the infirmary had a fu epidemic
on its hand:. But t'se worst we've
had this year wa the usual out
break of colds." Whereupon the
genial physician leaned back apd
knocked on wood.
"Yes," he continued, "except for
the football injuries and these gals
turning their ankles dancing, we've
had a pretty easy time. Everyone's
feeling fine. except the doctors and
nurses."
We asked Dr. Waddell why
patients always seem to wind up
with a package of A.P.C.'s when
they visit the infirmary. He took
a puff on his cigar and thought
a little bit. "Well, if they have a
cold, we give them the tablets and
if we don't exactly know what's
wrong with them we give them
A.P.C.'s anyhow. I've got to give
them something, y' know, or else
they say I'm no good. 1 think
we'll start painting the aspirin
tablets blue, pink, and purple.
That ought to break the monotony.
The patients might think they're
getting something new."
During the course of our chat
with the. Doctor we found out,
among other things, that A.P.C.
stands for a chemical formula and
nlot, as one student stubbornly in
sisted, for All Purpose Capsules.
