Bids Issued By
A Ipha Kappa Gamma
Alpha Kappa Gamma, the Na
tional Honorary Fraternity for
I.eadership at Queens, has been
quite busy lately. President Mar
garet Johanson has been calling
meeting after meeting, and as a
r-'sult, bids were issued Saturday
to three girls. Those selected
worthy of membership were
Jessie Smith, Marguerite Brown,
and Elizabeth Beckman.
At the Halloween Carnival last
week. Alpha Kappa Gamma was
outstanding. As the treasury was
in reduced circumstances at the
time, the members decided to
make money at the Carnival to
contribute as their club’s portion
toward the Day Student’s Hall.
They had a booth and sold “hot
dogs” with all the accompanying
relish and seasoning. This was
a huge success and the group
made about five dollars from their
sales at the booth.
This was a funny week-end
the dying gasp of October and the
chilling blast of November com
billed in just a short two days.
So many of the girls went off to
take their last October privilege
or their first November week-end.
Huagha Lee and Beaty went
down to Sumter so Beaty could
have her eyes examined. Hope
they’ll soon be better, so you’ll
be able to get rid of those head
aches, Beaty.
Louisa Drenan was at last
happy when she drove up in front
of her own home — she’d been
having waves set and been mak
ing more plans!
Evelyn McMillian and Kather
ine Brown were hostesses to the
Kappa Deltas last Sunday at a
feed.
Catherine Dickerson didn’t have
to spend the week-end on the
campus as she was so worried
over doing. Wonder if she had
a better time ?
Kat settled down long enough
to give the grandest feed, with
Evelyn Koonce, down at the Alpha
Delta Pi House, Sunday.
Helen Wall went over to States
ville — did she learn anything
about music from any teachers
at Michell, or should it be plural?
Lib Mason just goes home
the time—isn’t she a lucky
all
ol’
person
Lillian Zimmerman also went
home and let’s hope that she’ll
soon be back feeling much better.
Mamie Hunter and Grace
Shealy took time off before this
strenuous week of quarterly quizs
to go home.
Adeline Wooley and Lib Shel
ton made every Chi Omega very
comfortable, or should we say un
comfortable, after that good feed,
Sunday.
Gordon Query, Evelyn Archer,
and Carmelia Nixon all paid the
campus a short visit Saturday.
They are teaching in various
“bergs” in North Carolina.
Laura J. Quattlebaum spent
the time in Rock Hill telling the
Winthrop girls how much better
Queens was than Winthrop. Well,
Winthrop is one marvelous col
lege all right, but there’s our ol’
school spirit.
Lu and Liz gave the Kappa
Kappa Chi feed Sunday — can’t
you just taste that good ol’ fried
chicken ?
Little Reid went down to Bates-
burg and tried to increase her
height by being in uplifting com
pany.
Martha Tyson went home to
Hartsville with Martha Grant—
the ol’ suite must have been sorta
lonely.
Janie Tamberlien had the big
gest time sitting ’round the fire
relating dormitory experiences to
one and all at home.
Minna Le Grand, Jo Cornwell,
Julia Bynum and little Jimmy
Wilson did a big thing when they
went home—believe they’re still
talking ’bout certain things yet.
Janie Bob Gaston left Wednes-
day to go on one of the longest
possible journeys, almost. She
hasn’t been flashing that beauti
ful diamond because Woolworth’s
had a sale. We think the big
event will come off in December
—here’s our good wishes for lots
of happiness, Janie. Bet you’ll
get it too.
Helen Vincent and Vivian Hil
ton went over to Barium Springs
and did they have a big time!
