Whatever the method, the goal is all the same to get as many sharp pledges a possible, so that the chapter wil' grow and keep up its national i standing. At first one may be struck by I the superficiality of all this hustle bustle and may tiredly begin tc question the purpose it all forsees But to a true-and-blue member with the close ties of friendshiv and comradrie round a:out, th, purposes are easily recognized.

Breakfast at home was never si great A good pepsi with nabs to keep up his weight! le is sick of the tales of regis tration and IBM And begins to wonder if he has his money with him. A cute little blonde flashes him a smile Maybe life at Carolina is really worthwhile! His cards have returned for a major in Phys. Ed! Why that machine is remarkable -he registered Pre-Med!! His counselors convince him he is really quite smart. So what's his new major? Of course, it's ART!! At the ballgames he's happy andl cheers with delight, "Rip 'em up Gamecocks' - Fight, Fight, Fight!" When studying gets rough andl he's really on edge. His roommates burst in, "Hey pal -let's pledge!" Giving up books, quizes andl mush, He sports his sharp duds andl begins to "rush." With no one to convince him of the bad times ahead, lHe skips studly for the finals that everyone dreads.
