Roy Lind does a won derful job in the dual role of Charley Wykeham and his owun aunt, Donna Lucia D'Alvadorez. His dancing and singing are very good, and one of the outstanding numbers in the show is his "Once in Love With Amy." The play is being held over two extra nights, through tonight, so if you haven't already, be sure to see the Town Theatre's 307th pro duction, "Where's Charley?" The plot of the play is thin, but there are so many good musical numbers that one doesn't think about the plot very much. The chorus looked on first night as if it needed a little more re hearsal on its first number, "The New Ashmolean Marching Society a n d Student's Conservatory Band," but the girls of the chorus were very good in the dressing room scene in which they sang "The Gossips." Probably the best solo number in the play is Naomi Calvert's in terpretation of "The Woman in His Room." Other good portrayals are Tom Brooks as Jack Chesney, Ramona Elson as Kitty Verdun, Ray Dutrow, Jr. as Mr. Spettigue, and Bernice Kirbey as the real aunt. The orchestra, under the direc tion of Jim Elson, is made up of an organ, a piano, and drums. Their timing is good and they play low enough so that the weak er women's voices can be heard. Technically the show is lacking. The wagon stage used in the first scene moves at times, and it's very (Continued on page 10) NN'righ t i Joh nston Yorml We, Men's Clothing, Sh and Furnishing George Lin What metallua do ir chem: comp~ CHAR LES I.

Many persons, at one time or another, have tossibly sought to determine how South Carolina place names came about. "Names in Soith Carolina," a magazine published sporadically by the University Department of English, provides Fuch inform: - tion. Devil's Elbow, located north of Columbia, is a curde of a railroad where an unkniwn Negro man was killed by lhcr train. Negroel of the section be,ame wary of the spot because, as a recent article in the publication stated, "Once the Aehil ketch you in de crook of he elbow, it's de debil to pay." Edited by Dr. (laude H1. Neuf fer, assistant professor of English at the University, "Names in South Carolina" discusses frot time to time 0dd and interesting names found in the state. Neuffer states that the magazine is unique in the fact that it is the only on published sporadically. "South Carolinians have always been eloquent in their choice of place names," Neuffer intditates, "'whether they are designating a town, a church, plantation, a creek, a swamp, or even a certain field on their estates. Many of these old names have a poetic quality which is missing in the flatness of our (legant, modern nomenclature." "An examinat, of our place names will also enlighten us con cerning our state's earlier history. A careful stuly tf plantation names is rewarding.
