By SERENA HOLMES

Eleven USC students faced an
often merciless crowd Monday
night at the Carolina Program Union's
third annual comedy
competition.
Co-sponsored by CPU, Certs
and US Concepts, the competition
is part of a nationwide promotional
tour to find new comedy talent.
Before an expectant crowd
gathered in the Russell House ballroom
Monday night, 11 hopefuls
took a shot at the victory.
Host Brad Reeder,a professional
comedian soon to perform on Fox
network's "Comic Strip Live",
broke the ice with a few minutes
of comedy. In true comic fashion,
he occasionally went head-to-head
with audience members. Reeder
often chose junior Trent Simpson,
who good-naturedly played along,
to bear the brunt of his jokes.
Criminal justice freshman Jay
Tronco started things off by taking
a comedic look at television and
advertising, questioning the logic
of some product usage instructions.
Student personnel graduate student
John Andrejack did a bit of
fast talking while performing a
magic trick, and made light of the
talking done by females during a
aate.
Small-town law enforcement
was the target of Engineering sophomore
Kirk Bigger's act. Creating
an act-long joke, Bigger turned
hitting a cat on a small-town highway
into a major violation.
Music senior Harold Littlejohn
made the popular "900-number"
craze even crazier with his versions
of the recordings one might
hear when calling two fictitious
numbers.

competition
Theater and Speech freshman
Shane "Sterling Eyes" Eiziminger
might have created a bit of a craze
with the frequent use in his act of:
"Don't say that. That's stupid!"
Seniors Don Poinsette and Phil
Cater and sophomore John Kline,
calling themselves the Ne'er Do
Wells, "rapped" their way to first
place.
Creating a new phase to the
struggle of the Trix rabbit, as well
as Other animated rharaeterc nf
children's cereals, the Ne'er Do
Wells began with their "Cereal
Killers" skit. They concluded their
act with a finger-snapping rap about
the Elephant Man, which
brought much of the audience to
its feet with approving hoots and
applause.
Psychology sophomore Chris
Love and Sociology sophomore
Phillipe Williams gained both big
laughs and second place as they
poked fun at the toilet tissue industry's
fight to make life a little "softer"
for everyone.
Third place was garnered by
Physical Education major Ken
Fauler after he pulled heart strings
and turned over tickle boxes with
his sad, but comical tale of trying
to succeed in the dating world.
Judging the competition were
professional comedian and former
host of The Punchline's Amateur
Night Andy Hackney, USC Director
of Student Media and a former
stand-up comedian in Ohio Ed
Bonza, and Director of Weekend
Operations at WWDM Anthony
Keith.
Three regional winners will be
chosen to compete in Daytona,
Fla., Reeder said. The victor will
then be flown, all expenses paid,
to New York to perform at The
Comedy Club.
