Exams are almost upon us and our in
discretions of earlier this semester have I1"
caught up with us. One bright spot in the
exam schedule is the rash of pre-exam tests; we don't know
what we would do if it weren't for these last-minute study
aids, we would probably waste our time just studying. We
all owe a vote of thanks to our thoughtful professors who
take this hectic time to spend a few minutes making out
a last-minute test.
We feel that with all the bowl games over the holidays,
one part of the football picture has been overlooked-the
football teams which compiled perfect 0-0 records this year.
Why not have a game for the two worst teams and call it
something like the Lemon Bowl? We take the courage to
mention this only after USC has shown itself a potent foot
ball power and, at the moment, not likely to be in contention
for such a post-season honor.
Ambasador Winthrop Brown, who ought to know what
our foreign policies are even if no one else does, gave an
interesting and enlightening speech last Friday. In the
usual fashion of Russell House Room 207 speeches, it was
punctuated with the music of bouncing billiard balls emanat
ing from the game room above. We suggest thicker floors
or rubber billiard balls.
In as much as this is the last issue before finals, a new
semester and hopefully a new policy for this beloved and
hectic corner of The Gamecock (when they don't disown us),
we would like to extend our heartiest Cockeyed wishes for
a Happy New Semester. We would send these greetings
solely to our Cockeyed readers but we would like for someonc
to read them. We expand on this theme of gross generosity
with the hope that every one passes all his finals.

Joke Th
Fraternity
Juke Box
A pledge class project which
started as a joke and turned into
an embarrassing situation recently
netted Sigma Nu fraternity a new
juke box and 60 free records.
The project began when WCOS
radio started a contest for Icee
cups. The actives of the fraternity
thought about trying for the
prize, the choice of a juke box or
a motorcycle,' but decided they
didn't have much of a chance.
They decided to give the pledge
class a chance to benefit the fra
ternity and work together.
The 20 people in the pledge
class, along with six actives, began
hunting the Icee cups. They were
told that about 35,000 cups were

The contest began during the
S. C. State Fair, so the boys fol
lowed the crowds to the fair
ground. From 9 until midnight
each (lay of the fair they collected
cups. They got quite a few stares
picking the cups up as soon as
people dropped them, and the
usually smug Carolina fraternity
men were very embarrassed.
During the fair they collected
about 1,000 cups a day but the
actives thought they had no chance
of winning. Their fears were real
ized when they heard the rumor
that a man in Greenville had col
lected 20,000. They also heard
that they had competition from a

company at Ft. Jackson. By the
end of the fair Sigma Nu had
10,000.
On the day the contest ended
they took their 14,000 cups to the
radio station in 15 sacks. They
were somewhat heartened with the
reaction of the disk jockey, Woody
Windham, who was speechless.
The next highest entry was made
by a Columbia woman and her
son, who had 2,000 cups. The com
petitor in Greenville entered 1,200
cups.
Robbie Johnston, president of
the fraternity, said the effort was
well worth the work and got the
class working together and was
a lot of fun.
