me a card.
As ever,

PULP “A” ACTIONS
Bill Bryson was among the
lucky hunters in the forest this
month. He made his kill the first
day out bagging a forty pound
“muley headed ” buck. Rusty Smith
also brought home the meat. Clar
ence “Rabit Gun” Pressley reports
that this season’s crop of cotton
tails is far above last season ....
Skipper Holt had a good week on
his football bets two weeks ago
winning none, losing twelve and
two ended in a draw... Hugo Wilde
who bought Fleenor’s country es-
sate, has added an attractive banh
house and is planning more build
ing in the near future. Football
fans—this month include D. Black-
well, Bobby Corpening and Dobie
Lance who saw the Clemson-Wake
Forest game. Charles Rector, Clint
Morris, Bobby Corpening and Sang
Lyda saw Tulane-Ala. at New Or
leans and L.S.U.-ble Miss, at Baton
Rouge . . . Garland Whitmire is
trying to have the railroad route
changed since it burned off his
rye field . . . M. Chapman is the
proud papa of another boy making
four little plow-ands for him new.
. . . . David Blackwell has been a
nervous wreck for the past two
weeks and blames it on the ride to
Clemson with Dobie Lance.

REFINING “B”
blinkers
Talk about Buck Fever! You
should see Obie Willingham and
hear him tell his experience in the
forest hunt a few days ago. He said
he saw one of the largest and queer
est deer in his life. He thought it
was the leader of the band. He said
it carried a white flag in its mouth
but after he brought it down on
his seventh shot he discovered his
mistake. The flag turned out to be
a bottle of milk. The deer weighed
almost 40 lbs. Just a moment
please, I forgot to tell you that the
deer is to be divided four ways.
Looks like someone will get the
bottle of milk for his share . . . We
have all been curious to know why
Berry has been so quiet since he
married. Someone said he wanted
to lose his voice again just to keep
from answering so many questions
at home .... We all wish the boys
success on their bear hunt down in
Beaufort County. They say there
pe lots of nice plump “deal” down
in them thar swamps too . . . The
boys wonder why Riggins never
writes to his old pals any more. We
heard he was in the hospital. What
is the matter, Riggins, did you get
snake bit or were you doing the
Suzie Q. with the captain’s daugh
ter? .. . Sargeant wHs talking to
Walt McNeely before going on
guard duty. Now McNeely, suppose
you are on your post one dark
night when sudenly a person grabs
you from behind and wraps both
arms around you. What will you call
then? McNeely, “Let go, honey.”
.... Sledge, our little blenderman,
said he was going to buy a watch to
keep from getting so thirsty. Some
one asked him how a watch would
keep him from getting thirsty and
Sledge reminded said party that a
watch has a spring in it. tsk tsk . . .
A1 had better luck his second day
of deer hunting. He had been in
the stand about five hours when he
decided to look around. He saw a
big buck standing several hundred
yards away so he, eased into posi
tion and let him have it It didn’t

HANDBOOEET “B ~
LEADS FAST PACE
Teams Have Rest During
Holiday Season
Standings in the Women’s Duck
Pin League have done some strange
cavorting about during the past
month. Hand Book B, without a
doubt the fastest stepping, stead
iest team in the league to date,
leads by a margin of 5 games.
Sara Avery topped the entire
league honors for high single game
with a score of 115, McNeeley of
Finish A runs second with 110 and
Attress Rhodes, also of Finish A
and Maymie Reynolds of Machine
Book B hold third with 109. Mc
Neeley also holds a lead in net
pins total with 1876 for 21 games
and Ann Morris trails by only 2
pins.
Next week ends the first round
of games and since there will be
no bowling Christmas and New
Years weeks, Office, Endless Belt
and Finishing will take renewed
hope from an invigorating holiday
season and resolve to give Hand
Book a lively run for it when we
meet again on January 7.

satisfied. Special guests were Bob
Matthews and Earl Hall.
