. . a spoke a week . .
MAY HERBERT
The game with North Carolina may not have been such
a brilliant success, but the fraternities certainly made the
week-end scrumptious for their visiting brothers from the
tar-heel state.
The Sigma Nu house was open over the week-end to
UNC visitors. Some of them went with the boys and their
dates Saturday night for a little partying out at the Windy
Hill club. . . . Frank Owen took some of the Sigma Nu's
down to Charleston after the party for a week-end cruise.
Fortunately, all of them came back Sunday none the worse
for the partying and the tossing waves.
Kappa Sigma had not only visitors from North Carolina,
but had some of their own alumni back for a visit. Present
at a party at the Pinewood club were Ed McMillan, K. C.
Talbot, Tommy Griffin, and Pat Cox.
Phi Kappa Sigma held a drop-in in the Palmetto Room of
the Wade Hampton hotel, following the game. Eddie Helms'
orchestra played the Alma Mater and the fraternity songs.
Brothers Phi Kappa Sigma's from N. C., alumni, and invited
rushees were among those present with their dates. Visit
ing alumni were Joe Askew, Bob Swindler, Don Smoth, Os
bourne Rhodes, George Caughman, Cy Ameen, and all the
recent Columbia alumni. Afterwards, everyone went out
to the Hollywood club to continue the party.
Watch for the Kappa Sigma sweetheart, to be announced
SOON I The story and the picture of the sweetheart will be
run in the Gamecock.
Miss Eunice Stevenson, former exchange student from
Nova Scotia, visited in Sims this week-end. She is now acting
as dean of women at Lander college and is teaching English.
Miss Elsa Salvo, a student here last year and now at Roper
Hospital in Charleston. also visited in Sims Saturday and
Sunday. Miss Angela Barrington, a '49 alumna, visited An
drea Chandler Friday, Saturday and Sunday. She is teaching
at Fort Bragg.
The Sigma Nu's had two of their members to get mar- r
ried this summer. Jack Crosby married Genevieve Davis, t
and Buddy Ladd wedded Flora McKnight. The entire chapter
went around to serenade both of the girls after the meeting
Thursday night.
Pi Kappa Phi's had a post-game party Saturday evening t
in honor of the North Carolina Pi Kappa Phi's down for the
game. A touring party that night included all the Columbia
night spotu ... and we understand that a couple of the boys'
cars had to be pushed back from this excursion.
Llewlyn Fields received a diamond from Bobby Hart, Sat
urday night. She transferred from Flora MacDonald this t
fall.
The Lambda Chi Alpha's and their guests took in the Jef-i
ferson hotel ballroom after the Saturday game. Lucius
Weathers and his' band played. During intermission the
alumni were recognized along with the brothers from Gamma
Nu chapter of Lambda Chi Alpha at UNC. Also during in
termnission Bob Carpenter put on a skit, "Margaret O'Riety." A
Some fraternity songs were sung, and the brothers from|
UNC entertained with a song.
Pi Kappa Phi Sidney Floyd's ears are sprouting violets.
He's now pinned. Of course, say his fraternity brothers, he
claims it's puppy love . . . just gave her his pledge pin,
you know.
Sigma Nu pledges this week elected Jack Walthers as
president; Lockhart McLendon as vice-president; Russell 0
McGowan, treasurer; and Guy Nichols as secretary.
There is a ghoul loose in Sims lately. About two days after
school started, a figure wrapped in a sheet, with a devil's t
face completing the ensemble, strolled into all the rooms on
second and third floors. But that was nothing.
About a week ago, Ann Chandler walked into her room,
rambled around for a few minutes, and suddenly looked
down At her feet lay what appeared to be a corpse, with its i
face covered with paint. After a moment of hesitation, dur
ing which the glassy brown eyes staring up from the floor
never wavered, Ann recovered her usual poise, and simply
laughed. By the time the corpse arose, Ann's composure I
was fully recovered, and she took the thing as the gag it
was (or at least was meant to be).
This, howsomever, was not the case in another room in
Sims. The spook walked into Gloria Walker's room, and the
white face with Its lineal of mascara and blotches of lip
stick obviously startled her slightly. For a full five minutes,
she let out the most unearthly, blood-.curdling screams that
the coed students had ever heard. She immediately fired
an ash tray at the spook, who dodged as If it were very muich
alive.
The last we heard Mrs. Brockette was doing a little detec
tive work to find the ghost who walks. Well, at least it made
life interesting.
And It would also make life Interesting to see your nw
in print. Send It to Box 79, campus mail.
