HERBERT LAST MINUTE HOUSE PARTIES AND PLAIN OLD PARTIES are the order of the season, with sororities and fraternities rivals as to. whose is the best and biggest and finest-and the most fun. Delta Delta Delta bade au revoir to its departing senior members last Sunday morning at the annual Pansy Break fast. After the breakfast all the sorority members attended Trinity Episcopal church. They had dinner at the home of Frances Weeks, in St. Matthews. ALPHA PHI OMEGA, NEW SERVICE FRATERNITY, enjoyed a weiner roast for members and their dates at Camp Barstow, Boy Scout camp, Thursday night a week ago. The water was grand, too, and nobody drowned! DELTA ZETA MEMBERS will spend June 5-10 at the Myrtle Beach home of Joan Williams. CHI OMEGA'S WILL HOUSE PARTY June 11 at Bon View, Pawley's Island. JO ANN PATRICK, PI BETA PHI, was chosen FIRST MATE of the NROTC, and especially of.Compass and Chart, at the dance last Friday night. The dance was fine, and the gal chosen was a fine choice. Congratulations, Miss Memphis Belle! And another Pi Phi gal, Dolores Meyer, was chosen "Miss Melody" at the Harry James Dance. LAMBDA CHI ALPHA had an ALL-DAY and ALL NIGHT party Saturday beginning at 1 p. m., Saturday af ternoon, at Silver Lake, and, of course, the day was cold. Darn the luck! (Or do they really think so?) The hats were in the latest spring style. The marvelous monstrosity upon Ken's head was particularly enchanting. ZETA TAU ALPHA ALSO HELD A BREAKFAST for graduating sisters at the Varsity Grill Sunday morning. Margaret Eleazer Pitts, '49 alumna, spoke at the breakfast. Lucie Whitescarver, Miss Garnet and Black of 1950, was honored by her sorority, Tri-Delt, with a drop-in Sunday night. Anita Thee, Doris McClary, and Peggy Hedrick visited Mary Baldwin this past week-end. PI KAPPA ALPHA had a party Saturday at Hendrick's Landing. Also cold and wet out there. PI BETA PHI WILL HOUSEPARTY June 6 at Myrtle Beach. Ira and Harry Temple, Lee and Karl Smith, and Ann Wilson and Joe Pittman spent last week-end at dear ole Myrtle, which site seems to be the ambition of at least half of the student body. Barbara Raffield, Pi Beta Phi, has a diamond from Mackey Scott, of Clemson, and of Miss Raffield's home town, Aiken. PINS ARE ON THE MOVE AGAIN! Jerry Riley, Alpha Delta Pi, is pinned to Ronnie Trotter, Sigma Chi. Marvis Jean Keels, another Alpha Delta Pi, from Timmonsville, was pinned this past week-end by Pete Covington, Pi Kappa Phi, from Lake City. ANOTHER SATURDAY NIGHT PARTY was held by Zeta Tau Alpha. It was supposed to be a SWIMMING party, out at Margie Teague's beloved and well-known "the farm." They had a good time, despite the weather, though. Wouldn't you, with chicken sizzling in your plate (china or dental) ? NEW PLEDGE OFFICERS of Zeta Tau Alpha are Nancy Hale, Greenville, president; Virginia Sacher, West Henrietta, N. Y., vice-president; Joyce Woodel, Long Island, secretary; Sue Cathcart, Columbia, treasurer; Jackie Stukes, Davis Station, scholarship chairman; Mary Long, Columbia, ac tivities chairman; and Pat Elliott, Columbia, social chairman. Pat Bird, Florence, has a diamond from Steve Moore, of Columbia. Sunday afternoon in the sorority room Zeta Tau Alpha had a drop-in for parents of the members. The party was held from 5-6, and along about 5:30 the punch bowl started leaking. You think that's catastrophe? Ha! The blasted thing fell apart a few minutes later, severely wounding one of the serving girls. The casualty was rushed to the scene of the infirmary by the honorable editor of this paper, namely Miss Olga Edwards, but the action was slowed down somewhat in the lobby of Sims, when Frank Epps, Sigma Chi, and Tommie Herbert inquired solicitously into the whys and wherefores of the aforesaid serving girl's misfortune. That, my friends, is the end. Except for one small Item, still in its infancy. Ron Carey is pinned to Glenda Gunter, who is 14 years old. And so, well and farewell forever and anon. I bequeath to you next year a more comprehensive column. May you alway= find yurn namne therein. USC Represented At Math Meeting In U. Of Florida Lillian Perkins, Ellen Rasor, Betty Weber, R. R.

Childs has been dean of women at the university. She came to Carolina in 1935 when the girls had left the dormi tory for summer vacations. "Fif teen years ago when I came to Carolina," she said, "there were I 'NO gMOTCTNI:' ciona hq jnai in the dormitory. I took them down. There was certainly evidence of smoking," she continued, "and I don't like regulations you can't en force." She alone makes the dormitory regulations and likes to have it known that Carolina is among the three southern universities which have the most lenient girls' dormi tory regulations. Mrs. Childs gets a taste of dormi tory life every day, as she lives in a suite in Sims, but she says she is completely oblivtbus to female yells in the corridors, and girlish screams and giggles from the roms "Dormitory noiscs don't bother me," she said. Mrs. Childs related one dormi tory incident as if it were a regular happening. At 12:16 one morning she was aroused from her sleep to aid in a frantic search for a pre sumably stolen wallet containing $290 which belonged to a very wor ried co-ed. The search ended only wvhcn the student realized she had misplaced the amply filled wallet. The busy life which Mrs. Childs STATE THUIRS. -SAT.
