The Gamecock School of Wits may not be overly literary, but they are clever. Take for example the ease of "Dragnet." That is, Friday, the cop, who lives in Pres ton and answers, "61st Precinct, ma'm . . . Sorry ma'm, he's out on a ease." Then there is the campus Sherlock Holmes who answers with "Scotland Yard," English ac cent and all. Sims Witticisms The female populace are also contributors in the realm of tele phone witticisms, as: "Hello, this is Heaven. Which angel do you want to speak to?" "Sims China Shop, which doll would you like?" "Mrs. Jones Nursery, which baby you want?" The Pendleton streeters have some originals and semi-thus: "Pendleton 10, Warden Blank speaking." "Pendleton Mortuary; you stab 'em, we slab 'em." We hesitate to quote one of the Pendleton greetings for fear that it may provoke an investigation by the subversive hunter from Wis consin, but here goes. "Haalo... yes .. . Comrade Blank, telephone." Old Stand-bys Several old stand-bys pop up regularly. Here are some of the most common. "Joe's Pool Room, Eight-ball speaking." "Valley Forge, George Washing ton speaking." "This is the crazy house, which nut you want?" "George's Bar, Bill speaking." "City Zoo, which ape you want?" "Sherwood Forest, Robin Hood speaking." "It's your nickel, start talking." "Blank Bakery, which crumb you want?" "This is the devil, who in hell do you want to talk to?". Men's Dorms It is not uncommon for a men's dorm to answer with the name of Initiate 9 and Joanna D. Wright, Columbia. Two members of the Pharmacy School faculty, Dr. J. A. Campbell, and James M. Plaico, were elected to membership in the society as graduate students of other institu tions. Active membership In the society is limited to pharmacy studentg who have completed at least 60 per cent of their work toward a degree In pharmacy and who have attained a scholastic average of 85.

Occasionally, a mood strikes the wits when they fancy themselves as all kinds of establishments. Such answers as "Carolina Coun try Club," ' "the Poor House," "Blank Funeral Home," or even "Roddy Packing Co." may greet the ears of the caller. I.
