AA Card Play Organized By Union Carolina card sharks are ac tively engaged in bridge playing under Student Union auspices. The bridge league is sanctioned by the American Contract Bridge League and is run on a duplicate bridge basis. Fractional Master Points are awarded weekly to the winners, and full Master Point game is held the last Tuesday in every month. Each year the Association of College Unions sponsors a "par contest" which is open to all meni hers of the participating colleges. The winners of these tournaments are eligible for regional awards and the regional winners are eligi ble to compete nationally. Last year George Mahaffee and Charles Lipman placed third in this region. The duplicate game is directed by Mrs. W. C. "Lib" Simpson who has won several national chain pionships. Games are held each Tuesday night in the card room at 7:00 p.m. All persons interested in learning to play or who are already pro ficient in the game are invited to attend.

"At St. Paul they con - verted a skating rink into bowling anes just for the tournament." 0 The soft-spoken champ began , howling in September of 1961. "I t started from the bottom," he - grinned, "just another beginner i out having a good time." In fact, he had such a good time that he . just kept going back. Dave doesn't think it takes any I particular qualifications to be a . champion bowler. "Anyone who wants to can be a good bowler," . he said, "but it takes time, prac tice and money." ie estimated that he spends about $3.70 a week on boiw-ling. "I only get to prac tice two afternoons a week during school, because of studying," he said, "but when I'm at home I go seven days a week." Besides bowling, Dave likes to rolf and play baseball and basket hall. "I played all three until I was a sophomore in high school, f but I had to give them up when I started bowling seriously," he exp Jlainled. - D)ave is a member of Chi Psi - fraternity and is majoring in - physics. ,atches & jewelry watch repair ity service reet in Five Points 2-3 161 .1 Blocks Eaist of USC CampuL)Is SPORT WEAR I MECOCKS ase Set, Permanent Crease Cottons, Dacron/Wool, All ringbones & Solids.

COLLEGE HALL In 1865 a new constitution for the state of South Carolina was written, as a part of Recon struction, and the legislators elected under this new constitu tion met in College Hall. The House of Representatives met in the main portion of the auditorium and the Senate met in the base ment. Later, because of the infamous acoustics, the Senate moved to the Library and the House moved to the Clariosophic Hall. At this time the Hall was taken over by Federal troops. In August, 1865, the U. S. Gov ernment was paying the College $100 per month for the use of Davis Field and College Hall, and since the enrollment was not up to the expected level the adminis tration ceased to ask the military to leave. PARIADES AND DIRILLS In 1874 the U. S. Government was still renting Davis and Melton fields for parades and drills, but no use was being made of College Hall and it was taken over by large numbers of martins. The U. S. contracted in 1877 to rent Davis Field as a camp and parade ground, and the Hall base ment as a Quartermaster store room, all for $55 per month.
