December 18, 1933 QUEEN’S BLUES Page 5 Static Jingle bells—or something —played by a music box at midnight in the quiet semi sanctity of Morrison Hall somehow failed to arouse the Christmas spirit that this noc- tuamal concert was intended to. In fact, about the only result was the sudden wrath of the gods and the house- president directed against the occupants of room 313. There was no point to this escapade —only three. Speaking of the Christmas spirit (as who isn’t), have you noticed Agnes Gibson’s and Mary Lindsay’s room i n North? They don’t do things halfway. Neither does the University of South Carolina Glee Club. Suggestions for Santa Claus; Electric horses for those girls in Morrison who insist on taking reducing ex ercise at night—a telephone for each dormitory—a for mula for the acquisition of in tellectual curiosity for the sophomore English class—100 street car tickets for each girl in the student body—an alarm clock for Bobbie Ingram— some Mexican jumping beans for Thorbwin Lillard — and some chewing gum for the whole student body. What fraternity is the most popular on the campus? Did we hear Lula Hall, Margaret Truesdale, AND OTHERS giving three cheers for the shield-shaped pin? Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, and WHAT HAVE YOU! Slipper Postponed Because there is an epi demic of influenza at the Alexander Home, the seventy little children from there will, for the first time in 10 years, be unable to come to Queens Monday afternoon, December 18 for their annual Christmas party. Queens -Chicora considers these little children her special charges, and even though they cannot come to the college, the students are determined those orphans shall have a Christmas party. Accordingly Monday morning presents and food will be sent out to the home. Every student is urged to bring her gift for one of the children. Wrap it and turn that with her cash contribu tion in to the committee by Saturday afternoon. Since the students have al ways looked forward to and enjoyed entertaining these children equally as much as the children have enjoyed this traditional party. Plans are now being made to have them at the college in the spring for an Easter party. Alpha Lambda Mu met Friday 8, 1933, in Dr. Ninniss studio at 2:30. The program was mostly taken up with bus iness. Lillian Gwaltney and Margaret Floyd spoke on Er nest Schelling. Radio Station XMAS Each year, just before Christmas holidays, the sen iors of the Public School Music Department, under the direc tion of Miss Mabel Murphy, give a novel program in the auditorium. This year it will be Monday, 18th at 3:30 o’clock. The first half of the pro gram will be spent in the sing ing of Christmas carols by the Public School Music and Grammar School music classes. Other members of the student body, also the fac ulty and friends, are welcome to come and join in the sing ing. The second half of the pro gram will be a musical play called “Radio Station XMAS,” which will be given by the members of the senior class, in honor of the juniors and public school music classes. Elizabeth Mason was in strumental in planning most of the program. Those who will participate are Martha Frazer, Elizabeth Mason, Dor othy McCreight, Virginia Car son, and Alice Rankin. 30% of School Children Have Defective Vision The Junior Class presented their yearly entertainment Wednesday, December 13.
