Big Apple, Big Apple!" There's a dance that goes with this song, and neither Chubby Checker nor Hank Ballard intro duced it. Two University of South Carolina students introduced this dance, and it caught on faster than the Twist. Several years ago there was no Park Street in Columbia. It was called Gates Street, and at 1318 Gates Street there was no Depoe Auction Gallery; there was instead a Negro night club called the Big Apple Nightclub. Before that the building had been a synagogue. The Negroes really cut loose on Saturday nights at the Big Apple Nightclub, and it wasn't long before they were making up their own steps. Soon they had a whole new dance worked out. Then, as often happens, some college kids stepped in.

P45(45YORA.CS.C u. udents ] g Appki they happened to be two students from USC. They frequented the nightclub and learned thee dance steps. At the next University dance, the boys introduced the new steps, calling them the "Big Apple Night club Dance." People took an interest in this wild new dance, and a new craze swept the nation. Big name maga zines carried stories about it, in cluding Time, Reader'm Digest, and Variety. Variety made the statement, "It requires a lot of floating power and fannying." Time called it a na tional menace. Two records were released, both called simply "The Big Apple." Tommy Dorsey's calmer version on RCA Victor did extremely well, but the "Wiggle" version on the Blue bird label hit the top, selling over 12,000 copies within the first ten days of release. The original "Big Applers," the Negro patrons of the Big Apple Nightclub, formed a group and played at the Roxy Theatre and in Rockefeller Center.

The actual dance was a frantic combination of the Black Bottom Shag, Susie Q, Charleston "Tur key," London Bridge, and the Indian Rain Dance. "Praise Allah" was the name given to the almost reverent ending. To do the "Praise Allah" part the dancers formed a circle, leaned back with arms uplifted, and chanted, "Praise Allah; Praise Allah!" Then, they wiggled. Another part of the Big Apple was the "Peck and Pose." Partners pecked at each other's right shoulder, then the left. The music stopped; they held the pose-and wiggled. With all of the wiggling and fannying required to do the Big Apple, the dance could well have been called the Wiggle. The white students learned this dance from doing an "impromptu dance with the Negro entertainers" and patrons of a Negro nightclub. All of this took place twenty-four years ago, in 1938.

Marviii Bass, head co A Candid View Marvin BY JOAN WOLCOTT Feature Editor Since Marvin Bass became head football coach at USC last Janu ary, he has been a boost to student morale and a blessing to local sportswriters. Praised for his straightforwardness, kidded about his size, and quoted on many sub jects other than football, "The Moose" has become an .tegral part of Carolina. His life history having been fully unfolded, there still remain a few uncovered aspects of the Bass personality. What are his everyday likes and aversions, his interests and desires ?

The American Stu dent Information Service, known as ASIS, has more than 3,000 summer jobs in their files awaiting appli 'ants. In the past four years ASIS has successfully placed thousands of American college students in varied nunmer jobs throughout 11 European ?ountries. Jobs are mostly unskilled and many do not require a knowl adge of a foreign language. Monthly wages range from room and board n Spain to $150 for the highest paid positions in West Germany. This coming summer thousands of E.uropean employers will provide *mmer employment for American :ollege students, in order to make it possible for young Americans on El limited budget not only to see Eu rope, but also to "live it." Jobs include factory work, resort work, construction work, farm work, rhospital work, child care, camp y'ounsell:ng positions and many ,thers. Students will receive the same wages as the Europeans with whom they are working. In addition to an opportunity to personally get to know "the man cehind the counter'' in Europe, a mummer job in Europe can defray the cost of the trip by as much~ as 50%.

I'd like to see students speak more on campus. More social gatherings on cam pus, such as Saturday night dances, would help knit the stu dents closer together. I don't like to mess around with cars.
