Game At ( Helps All By KELLEY JONES ( Feature Editor t The South Carolina State Leg- '1 islature, in 1958, made a momen- N tous decision to abolish the tradi- t tional Big Thursday Classic. r This piece of legislation, al- E though pushed by Clemson stu- ' dents, alumni, and fans, is ac- t tually a blessing to Carolina stu dents and the state as a whole. Let's look at the facts. I To begin with, doing away with 1 Big Thursday also means doing away with all those nasty Fair 9 holidays which formerly dragged I USC and Clemson students alike I away from their classes and the pursuit of knowledge. Many Spectators Also, each year the game at- I tracts thousands of spectators ( from all over the United States. i Therefore, having every other v "Solid Saturday" at Tiger Town will stimulate and encourage one of the most progressive sections in South Carolina. In addition to the thriving metropolis of Clemson itself, such tremendous teeming centers of population as Sandy Springs, Six Mile, Fair Play, Cateechee, and Utica will benefit materially from the game. One company in particular-the Ram mbin' Thoughts By JANET ROBERSON Staff Writer A boy and girl, both major ing in dramatics, walked out of a movie sponsored by the Stu (lent Union. The boy remarked, "What love-making! Let's try i the last scene." Freshman occupant in Maxcy gapes in horror as she sees footprints on the wall and I ceiling of her room. . . . Maybe i she's afraid of close places. A coed recently told a male undergraduate that he was a I real non-conformist because he i came to a party-school to study. I -Beat Clemson! ADLERS. I WHITF .Ilemson )f State lemson Rent-a-Mule Service-is lanning to expand its facilities. he service, which rents mules to. isitors to Clemson (the last few ifles are so mountainous and ocky that automobiles must be bandoned), has added 68 new iules to its staff especially for his year's game. New Log Cabins Thirty-six brand-new log cabins ave also been recently built to ccommodate visitors. Another company whose sales hould sky rocket tomorrow is lashful-Baron Moonshine, White ,ightening, and Assorted Spirits, Jnine. Also, any new visitors to Death ralley will get a good, first-hand Dok at that thriving new South arolina industry - farming - vhich Governor Fritz Hollings uccessfully lured to the state. Too Much Money It is a well-known fact that all JSC students have entirely too nuch money and are accordingly n danger of becoming spoiled >rats. Thus, the fact that Carolina tudents must buy tickets for the ames played at Clemson is, in -eality, an attempt to remedy one >f the great evils of our time. All this goes to show that the south Carolina solons actually ad the good of the state and JSC in mind when they decreed he aforementioned change. t -Beat Clemson! French Movie In Columbia "The Would-Be Noblemen," a 4rench comedy originally written or performance before Louis XIV of France, will be presented dur- a ng December at the Five Points I 'heater.
