}j#Pagone 9J gee' **a 81o a Week.& By BUZZ BUSBEE WHY DOES ONE HAVE TO SLEEP? Forty seven USC students were asking this last weekend. Somewhere out near Aiken, Camp Long, the State Y held its Fall Retreat. (In some colleges it's called an Advance, honestly.) There were representatives from Converse, Coker, Columbia College, Erskine, Newberry, Furman (ouch!), Citadel, Clemson (fairly good relations were maintained), Wofford, Winthrop, and Lander. There was a planned program until 11:50, that's 10 of 12 to you, and then there was a free time for making acquaintances and bettering relations. Why don't they have these things more often? Good will ambassadors from Caro lina seen working hard were "Red" Gibson, Choppy Sim mons, Richard Braddock, Fred Sososnisky, Fred Reese, Bill Haley, L. C. Dimmery, Pat Wilson, Jane Kirk, Eleanor Hull, Jeanette Dickson, Gertrude Jenkins, Jeanette Monts, Gloria Walker, and Frances Weeks. LAMDA CHI'S WILL INITIATE Al Barfield, Wallace Austelle, Jack Crutchfield, Al Buncy, Buddy Hendrick, Jim Ness, Charlie Eaddy, and Pete Konduras, November 4. The night after they are partying at the V.F.W. Hut. Wonder how the morning after will be? VISITOR ON CAMPUS: Miss Eunis Stevenson, former exchange student from Nova Scotia, spent the week-end before last on the campus. She remarked on the great differ ence between the girls' regulations at the university and at Lander College in Greenwood, where she is teaching English and acting as Dean of Women. Ho! Ho! HOUSEPARTY AT MYRTLE BEACH: Kappa Alpha's and dates will journey to the beautiful seashore after their tea dance Thursday. Won't it be cold down there? THE COMING OF FALL hasn't dampened the ardor of love. George Roth, Sigma Chi, and Margaret Tompkinq, of Columbia College Are pinned. Bob Peters, Lambda Chi, and Ellen Barker, A D Pi also are pinned. VISITING GOD'S COUNTRY AROUND GEORGETOWN over the weekend were Lambda Chi's Bob Westerfield, Ken Dean, and Jim McMath. While they were there, they visited Mr. and Mrs. Tom Richardson. Remember Tom? He used to jabber over WUSC. He probably wouldn't appreciate that. He's working now at WGTN in Georgetown. MARY ELLEN O'NEILL, Delta Zeta, and BETTY FRAZER, Pi Phi, visited Clemson for the weekend dances. More of that "bettering relations," eh girls ? That's a true Carolina spirit. PHI EPSILON PI had a big party last Saturday night at Sims Park. It was a big time, all dancing and good food. ATTENDING THE AUTUMN BALL AT WINTHROP last weekend were Al and Clarke Adickes, Johnny Paresho, Bobby Smith, Don Covington, Oscar Strange, and Dee Brown. Big time, boys ? MARRIED SATURDAY: Laura Speed, Kappa Delta alum, and Clyde Simmons in Abbeville. Libby Duncan, KD alum, was one of the bridesmaids. Ann Craig, Ann Goodwin, and Lou Oswald, KD's, attended the wedding. PI PHI'S from North Carolina visiting sisters down here were Mike Merker and Susan Walton. More Pi Phi news, Jean Hill, former Madame Editor of the Gamecock, will marry Red Ballentine December 10. BELIEVE IT OR NOT OF THE WEEK: Mabel Pace, Chi O from Charleston, received an orchid for safe driving! Anyone who's ever ridden with the above mentioned will wonder. (An afterthought which might explain the phen omena-it was given to her by the Charleston Police De partment.) GERALDINE STILL and Bill Dyckes of Blackville are engaged. ZETA TAU ALPHA'S held initiation Sunday afternoon in the chapter room. New actives are Nancy Stewart, Marilyn McCoy, Norma Bergman, Betty Pope, and Jane Almy. WHICH LUCKY CO-ED WILL BE THE KAPPA SIGMA SWEETHEART? She will be named at the banquet to be held next week. Your guess is as good as mine.

During the late 1880's, Legislator "Pitchfork Ben" Tillman expressed his belief that the university was a pseudo classical center of snobbery and foolishness, and wasn't fit to con trol the agricultural and mechani cal school annex. At this time, the Hatch and Land script funds appropriated to the university to support the agri cultural annex were its main sources of income. Therefore, when "Pitchfork Ben" led agitation to establish a separate state agricul tural school, anti-Tillman feeling at the university was running high. Thomas Clemson's will of the 800-acre Calhoun estate at Fort Hill, S. C., came at an ideal time for Tillman and his supporters. Clemson College was established and built; the appropriations taken from the university and given to Clemson, and the university was demoted to the South Carolina Col lege. Tillman, a vigorous man, seldom did things by half. To ensure Carolina remained on its kness un til Clemson became permanent, he had himself and several of his sup porters appointed trustees of the weakened South Carolina College! Effects of the Clemson-Tillman combination upon the college is evidenced by graduating classes in 1898, when Clemson graduated 86 students to Carolina's four. It was because of this rivalry born of politics that parolina was more than anxious to "beat hell out of Clemson" on that first Big Thursday.

A thirsty student ambled up to the coke machine, deposited the proper amount of change, and re mained dumbfounded while cokes came from every direction. When he had counted his take he dis- I covered that the machine had blessed him with almost a case. In a short time another student put a nickel in the orangeade ma chine and received his ade and 20 e4 cents to spare. Again he put in , a nickel and received the same in n return. In a short while he picked le up a neat profit and a dozen cups n of orangeade. "Cheapest drink I w ever- had," he gasped in utter amazement. w ej 51 st Anniversary m To Be Celebrated By Kappa Deltas Kappa Delta sorority will cele brate founder's day at an informal t super Sunday night following the t Pan-Hellenic tea, Irene Herty, president, has announced.
