BY REGINA GALGANO
Tomorrow the traditional Clem
son-Carolina game will be played.
As everyone knows it is no longer
on Big Thursday. A tradition at
Carolina has been ruined. What
do you think about this? The fol
lowing students seem to think that
Janean Mann
traditions should remain and have
stated their opinions on this.
Ilayward Edmunds, Sophomore:
It has been a traditional thing to
Knee
Ticklers
Coeds at the University ot South
Carolina and students at Columbia
College will be permitted to wear the
season's short skirts, "knee tic
klers," spokesmen for the two insti
titions said this week.
The hemlines of the skirts fall
just above the knee, and they come
in pleated, "A," gored, flared, and
sheath styles. They are properly
worn With knee socks or leotards.
TK)tse Dennis, chairman of the
Social-tcereation Association at Co
lumbia College, said that there has
been no forml regulation against
the "knee tick'(lS" at her schlool. She
added Ohat an announcement had
been made in an assenibly meeting
requesting the girls not to wear
culottes which were shorter than
skirt length. She said this state
ment. may have led some pe)ple to
believe the "knee ticklers" had been
ruled out. She added, however, that
since the short skirts are worn with
the knee socks, her group saw no
objection to them.
Lucy' Croslan rd, chai rmann of the
Womien's Sumadardls Comi ttee, Ui
v'er.sity oft South Carolina, r'eportedi
that there has been rno question or
controversy whatsoever on the Uni
versity campu)ts as to whet her the
coeds coub oi r coldt not weaur ''knee
t.iekleris.' Shre said, "'Many of the
girls like the new styles, arid they
have alIready added several to thieir
wa rdr bes."
Mrs. O lga E'. C ravener, buyer for
a leadinug Columrbia D)epa rtment
store, say-s that the *"knee ticklers"
are "d(efinlitely a fad,'' and they
probab)ly will niot lhe popular mlor'e
than one season. Slit thiniks that thre
ski rt.s are selin rg very well inii the
spor'tswea r departm- inen t If iher stor Ie.
Iher opinion is that the skins should
lie worn onily for veryv caisua! occa -
sions.

have the game on Big Thursday
and I think it was a shame to
change it. Big Thursday was a big
thing for Carolina, and since it
has been abolished it has taken a
lot of spirit out of football. Before
this everyone looked forward to
the Carolina-Clemson game, and
I guess everyone still does but not
with as much enthusiasm. I would
like to see Big Thursday reinsti
tuted.
Jeff Fisher, Junior: I think
they should still have Big Thurs
day. It was a tradition built into
this school that students and a lot
of towin people miss.
I have found that tradition is
very important to southerners
an( they more or less resent hav
ing tradition torn down. So I think
Big Thursday should be put back
where it was.
Perin Gleaton, Sophomore: Yes.
Trhe fair is here at the same time
Big Thursday was held, and it at
tracted a lot of out-of-state people.
I don't think there's any sense in
having such a big game at Clem
son. It's the deadest place in the
world. I know, I went there for a
year. Unfortunately!!
I also think that since this is
the biggest game of the year,
Clemson students should be al
lowed in the game on presenta
tion of their I.D. cards, and that
the same should hold true when
we play them up there. After all,
what difference does it make, both
the schools are in the same state.
But getting back to Big Thurs
dty, since it has been abolished
there is not the extra spirit that
used to accompany it. Tearing
down this tradition was like tak
ing away Homecoming or Greek
Week. Of the three biggest events
of the year only two remain.
Sharon Harper, Freshman: Yes!
I definitely think that we should
have the traditional Big Thursday
because Clemson is an inadequate
town in which to hold a game.
Last year it took hours to get into
Clemson and then there was no
place to stay once you were there.
But I think we should give the
profits fron the game every year
to (lenson, they need it.
I believe that Clemson students
should be able to get in on their
I.D. cards and vice-versa because
tickets are too expensive.
Sandy Tuten, Freshman: As for
the stuldvnts, I think that most of
then would like it on Thursday,
hut the school should 2ecide when
to have it and wvhen it's con
venient to have it. There's not
too much the students can do
about it.
I deOfinlitely think that Clemson
students should be admitted to the
game on their I.D. cards because
tickets are rather expensive, and
because both schools are in South
Carolina.
Janean Mann, Freshman: I like
it the way it is. I really don't
knew much about it since I am
fronm Maryland, and wasn't here
wvhen they had Big Thursday, but
from wvhat I've heard about it it
sounds pretty good.
I do believe that since it is
such a big game, Clemson stu
dents should be allowved into the
game ,on their I.D. cards, and
whn e play up there I think
that we should be admitted to the
game on our 1.D). cardls. The
prices on the tickets for this game

are really ridiculous. There are
probably many students w h o
would like to come to the game,
but who can't because of the out
rageous prices of the tickets.
Bob Saxon, Senior: I've been at
Carolina for a number of years,
more than my share, and I re
member all the fun we had at Big
Thursday time. Since they've
abolished this tradition, it has
taken away a lot of good fun and
rivalry. Big Thursday was the
one time students could look for
ward to with feelings of good (?)
will and pleasure. It was the one
event that everyone in the state
looked too, for the latest fashions
and good football. I definitely
think that Big Thursday should
be reinstituted.
I don't know whether Clemson
should be admitted to the game
on their I.D. cards or not. The
more I think about it, the less I
like the idea. Clemson would
never allow Carolina students to
invade Death Valley with our I.D.
cards, so I don't think we should
let them into our game on their
cards.
Fred Fuller, Junior: I don't
think that Big Thursday should
be brought back. It was not fair
to the peoplo at Clemson to have
to come down here year after year
for such a big game. This game
.leff Fisher
means a lot to both schools, and
therefore I think that both schools
should each have a fair chance to
host such an affair. I will admit
that Clemson really isn't big
enough to accommodate such large
crowds, biut as the years go by, I
think that they will realize the
need for more space, and do some
thing about it. Even though I am
a Carolina man, I must admit
that Clemn is a good school, and
should not be torn dlown by every
man and woman of Carolina. I
realize that for this statement I
will probably be blasted by all my
friends, but those are my feelings

A Carolik
BY MARTY SHEHEEN
Society Editor
Between the innocence of
babyhood and the sophistication
of womanhood, we find a fasci
nating and scrumptious crea
ture called a CO-ED.
CO-EDS come in assorted
sizes and weights, but all CO
EDS have the same creed: to
talk as much as possible during
every minute, of every day, of
every year; and, to snag a man!
Their only weapon is an occas
ional hairtint, makeup, good
figure, and their unusual ability
to make a man feel like he's a
hero when he's really a heel.
A CO-ED can be found In the
dorm, in cars, in the D.A.V.,
talking on the phone, in the frat
houses, walking hand-in-hand
with her current love, cheering
for the Gamecocks, practicing
for songfest, frantically signing
in at 11:59, in the Gamecock
Room, and cramming for exams.
A CO-ED is a composite. She
has the appetite of a bird (un
less she is in an expensive res
taurant with her favorite beau),
the imagination of Walt Dis
ney, the knack of causing house
mothers to have nervous break
downs, the cunning of a fox, the
perfect system for snowing pro
fessors, and the curiosity of a
cat.

and I wouldn't want to print some
thing I don't mean.
I do hope that Carolina whips
the tar out of Clemson, Big
Thursday or not.
Johnny May, Sophomore: I am
not from South Carolina,so I don't
know what Big Thursday was
like, but I hear that It was really
some laughs. From the things I
have heard, I think that Big

She likes CAROLINA, boys,

Opus, diamonds, boys with con

don't like Carolina, and boys
who date "out of the commun

Nobody else gets so much fun
out of talking. No one else
carries such large pocketbooks
and still can't find room for
everything. No one else can
make you look twice when she
smiles. Nothing else can en
hance the beauty of our campus
like she can.
A CO-ED is a magic creature.
You can lock her out of your
home, but you can't lock her
out of your heart! You may get
her out of the dorm, once in a
while, but she can't stay long.
Might as well give up. She's
your captor, your jailor, and
your CO-ED, and when you go
home at night with only the
shattered pieces of your hopes
and dreams, she can mend them
like new, when she calls and
says . . . "Hi, darling."
EMSON! -
Thursday should be reinstituted.
The students of Carolina and
students of Clemson are great
rivals and I think that if the
Clemson students were allowed to
use their I.D. cards to the game
it would build better feelings be
tween the two schools. Much of
the rivalry is friendly, but I still
think that it would help.
