The Best
Grosse, A
By DAVID
Music
This is something you usually
don't get till you're dead; you
know - that's when they start
selling your songs, stories, paint
ings, or what have you . . . after
you're dead. Well, this guy is far
from dead, but before I continue
with this labor of love, let me
introduce myself. My name is
Dave Bledsoe, and the guy I'm
writing about is named Bob
Grosse. Bob wrote this column
once upon a time; he is now in
the employ of Uncle Sam's Navy,
and I am feebly trying to carry
on in a tradition that Bob made
... or rather that Bob is.
Bob's Humor
Bob had (why do I keep refer
ring to it in the past tense? See
what I mean about being dead?)
Bob has a delightful sense of
humor that is coupled with a
tongue dipped in acid. Especially
if he saw something he didn't
like-which was often because
Bob is a thorough individualist.
He wvas also a good writer. I
won't use the word "great," be
cause Bob would honestly object.
But he was good. In fact, this
whole column is a re-run of what
many people, including myself,
think was his best effort. To
wit:
"One afternoon, I pilgramaged
to that mecca of the Carolina
campus, Russell House Canteen
-kingdom of the avant-garde
french fry, the 7c coffee, and
the 20-minute wait. There in the
land of the free, and the home
of the p)atient, surrounded by
two infantry squads from Fort
Jackson, and the entire Game
cock's third string backfield, I
enjoyed a leisurely meal...
here are the tunes the college
set are spending their lunch
money for.
"lie's got the Whole World in
His Hands" by Laurie London.
A t peak volumne, Laurie sings
about how "'e's got the 'ol wurld
hiun 'is hahns." Found at the
end of His Harms, no doubt.

Bob was noted for his his
tories, too, he wrote about Bix

a host of other jazz greats. He
wrote as if he knew what he
was writing about-he did know.

Board Plan
Is Proven
Economical
The new Student Board Plan,
set up on a semester basis, of
fers to the students an econom
ical means of securing food at
a guaranteed cost. The plan as
sures the students three meals
a day, except on University ho!i
days, at a cost of $170.00 plus
sales tax, payable at the Treasur-.
er's Office.
"In comparing the savings made
by taking the plan, the student
gets the equivalent of $15.00
worth of food for about $10.00
a week," Mr. Clarence E. Koester,
Manager, said.
A full variety of food is of
fered; the food is similar to that
in the regular cafeteria. Those
students taking the Board Plan
are served only in the new up
stairs cafeteria in Russell House
and must show a Slater System
Identification Card when served.
However, the upstairs cafeteria
is also open to other students.
Purchase of this semester
board plan can be acquired at any
time during the semester. The
Board Plan. is very popular in
other colleges and is usually
termed a success. Taking an
average cost of food, the student
will come out much cheaper by
