Pranksl In ] BY CLOUDY HARDY The Joint office of the sports and society editors was the scene of the interview of one of Caro lina's most notorious characters this week. As he sat down to be gin the interrogation period, Charles Frederick Behling picked up a rather large pair of shears and began cutting a piece of paper into small particles. As he snipped away on his sec ond sheet of paper, Charles stated that he was born in St. George, S. C., where he now resides, and that he has lived in other places, including Columbia, Miami, and Philadelphia. He secretly admits that he picked up his accent in Philadelphia. When he came to Carolina Charles had no idea that he talked differently from other people. "I thought I was very normal," he said, "Until I noticed that people THRIFTY STI 1Oc PER SHIRTS 14c E An economical, venient service 1 that extra mone you enjoy.

One person, who is now a good friend, told me he thought I was a foreign student from the way I talked." The former editor of the "Game cock" has a long list of organiza tions to his credit. He is a mem ber of Omicron Delta Kappa, Kappa Sigma Kappa, Press Club, Student Council, Sigma Delta Chi (a journalism fraternity), Sigma Chi social fraternity, and Tri Ep. Charles, a journalism major, has no definite plans for the future. He hopes to attend grad uate school next year and then chose his occupation, either news paper work or teaching. As editor of the "Gamecock" last year during the presidential elec tion, he met both Nixon and Ken nedy, Bob Kennedy, Mrs. Rose Kennedy, the president's mother, and Lady Bird Johnson.

Charles picked up his tenth piece of paper and began cutting it into shreds as he explained that he is the most spastic member of the Carolina Community. "I always seem to do something wrong, especially on very impor tant occasions when I'm trying to make a good impression. For in stance, the night I pledged my fraternity we went out to supper, and while I was cutting my steak, the knife slipped and turned the plate over into my lap." Hobbies and favorite pastimes presented a problem to Charles be cause he could not make up his mind what he liked to do better than anything else.

Carolina students w h o are pelted with popeern at movie houses may now be enlightened. It is probably Charles, for he enjoys throwing popcorn. After depleting the supply of paper on the desk, he looked around the room for something else to cut up. Spying a stack of old editions of the "Gamecock," he promptly began to shred them. By this time his chair was surrounded with a pile of confetti. At this point Charles changed his mind, "I know what my hobby is-food. I spend all my extra money on food and you can tell it by looking at me. I love exotic food and I guess Italian food is my favorite.

I'm very excited about the new French restaurant that is supposed to open in Columbia sometime after Christmas. I can hardly wait to eat there." Last year Charles attended the Press Association convention in Clicago and made out a list of things he wanted to do and places where he wanted to eat while there. To his dismay, he discov ered that he didn't have enough nights to eat at all the restaurants on his list. Never-say-die Charles found a solution, however. Some nights he ate twice. As for Carolina, he only has praises for it and wants to stay here as long as he can. Perhaps that's why he decided to go to graduate school next year. The conversation drifted to foot ball and suddenly Charles cried, "We're going to beat Clemson. The team showed last Saturday that they're real pros. I think Marvin Bass is the greatest fel low. With a man like Bass we really don't need to win. It's enough just to have him on our side." "Beagle" (an affectionate nick name for Charles) said that he has only one horrible memory which concerns a terrible experi ence of the past summer. He and three others, Mike Sheheen, Bob Hill, and Murray Coker, decided to rent an apartment for the dura tion of summer school. The four brave souls vowed to do all the cooking, cleaning, and washing and divided the duties up weekly. Beagle declares that he learned from this experience that he would never make ia good house wife. "The most terrible thing hap pened," he said. "Some friends were coming down to visit and we wanted to put on a good show for them. It was my week to cook and I spent all day in the kitchen making spaghetti from a recipe of my mother's. That night every thing was ready and we were pre paring to serve dinner. In the process of transferring the spa ghetti sauce from the pot to a serving bowl I dropped the bowl and splattered the sauce all over the kitchen. I just wvanted to sit down in the middle of the floor and cry." A few minutes later Charles' voice became somewhat muffled and a quick glance abut the room showed him nowhere in sight. Sud denly there was a slight move ment under a mountain of shred ded paper and then Charles ap p)eared. He brushed the confetti from his head and shoulders, then stood up and brushed off his clothes, said thanks for the inter view and plowed his way through the mound of paper to the door.
