They were so tuck ered out after nine innings of base running against Michigan State they couldn't make it to the Carolina afoot. And who was the cab driver who stuck his head out the win dow? You guessed it! It was Red Skelton, "The oella' Cab Man." And who was b beee-ooo-tiful companion? That \s Gloria De Heaven (uhh, we mea i)e Haven!)

Why, of course, on their way to see Garvin's gigantic, giveaway, goonified April Fool's show. "The early bird catches the worm," Coach Ted Petoskey said upon being asked why he was three (lays early for the show. But where else could they go? The diamondeers were out of a job when the hard-hitting, fleety, Carolina Kids, led by Garrulous Garvin showed up at Melton Field.

The purposes and objec tive. of this orgalizatiVI- iAJ V VO promote a higher standard of pro fessional ethics and culture in this law school and in the profession at large. To accomplish this the first ob ject of Phi Delta Phi is to instill high principles of honor and in tegrity in the law student. Its second objective is to recognize those men who are already in .the profession and have exhibited these qualities. New officers of Calhoun inn have been elected.
