Ye Mandeville Maidens!
We Mandeville Maidens' How artistic you are! Many things
that meet the visitor’s eye are worthy of comment and with your
permission, my fair laidies, I begin with the 'West End Kids,” Eley
and Danieil who from all appearances want privacy of their closets.
Daniel! says it’s much more like home to have that bed lamp with
the blue shade to glare her to sleep at night.
Personality blossoms forth on
those flowery curtains belong
ing to Beck and Wyatt and Id
be afraid the attractive pink pig
would root its way away some
day. The most outstanding thing
in ‘ Milly’s" and Nancy’s domain
or. the night I made my tour was
a fruit cake, but subtracting its
attraction, the vari-coiored Af
ghan is next best.
McCurdy and Hendrix must
have a fancy for narcissi because
those plants didn't just spring
up from nowhere! I’m positive
Peacocks have no idea how the
“All I Want is Love" sign got in
their room and do those empty
shirted dolls mean undernourish
ment?
Dixie, are you and Betty still
thinking of not the past, not the
present, but the future with
those handsome pictures for
cheer? From the looks of the
Dyer’s room and the signs over
the beds, they have trouble de
ciding what to wear and may I
ask if that paste board clock
w'orks?
Hulsey and McCrea could
never forget “Drooly” since she
left a likeness of Rachel behind
for decorative purposes. The gold
fish and geranium make a gar
den-like background for Grif
feth’s and Sharp's good looking
men.
Eckles and Jessie have a de
sire for peace but they can’t
make up their minds whether
it’d be for sleeping or for study
ing. (What’s the public opinion?)
They like the Varsity too, eh
yes? “Dreamy Cat” almost meow
ed at me from Yoe’s room. Jelly,
are those flowery tie backs for
the curtains your domestic con
tribution?
What‘s “Betty Dope” doing in
a room of brains like that be
longing to Martha Perry and
Aileen Aiken? Those cute match
ing wall vases are representative
of Hackney’s and Broadrick’s
knacks for making matches.
Wyatt and Gladys give you a
morbid feeling you get in, with
those bones on the door. Won
der if that map means they’re
geographically inclined?
Carolyn Chism and Weaver
are small packages but their
good tastes are unlimited! Are
those doors of opportunity on
that blue spread which is pro
perty of the room occupied by
Morgan and Smith? “Bunny
Bed-fellow” is an eye catcher too.
It’s a chince Clarice and Crow
der are all out for a certain man
we know’ ’cause F. D. R.’s their
pin-up man! They definitely
show’ you the w r ay out once you
get in with arrows and signs,
BLEDSOE
TAXI CO.
PHONE 62
too! Those pretty white curtains
speak dainty words for King and
Akin.
Winn smiled. Smith smiled
and Griffies smiled when I ask
ed about a certain attraction in
the form of a pillow top bearing
a “Sweetheart” poem. Is it a
secret?
I completed my tour of Man
deville with not only a good im
pression of the girl’s justifiable
pnde in their rooms but an
idea, too, of their big hearts.
(How did I know’ that sign
“Please Feed Me” was pinned
on my back?)

JUNIORS VISIT
CLEMSON COLLEGE
Members of the Junior Class
enjoyed a trip to Greenville, S.
C., November 9-11 for the pur
pose of observing other school

houn), the “Y”, and had lunch
at the Field House. In the after
noon they attended the “V. M. I.
—Clemson” football game, after

BOYS COMPLETE GAME
WITH TIE
A scoreless tie was the result
of the final football game play
ed Wednesday, November 15,
between the morning and after
noon Physical Education classes.
AH the games in the series of
eight played by the teams were
interesting and well played but
the la3t w-as by far the best.
The game was played almost
entirely between the thirty yard
lines. The only real scoring
threat for either side came in
the third quarter and was en
gineered by the morning class.
Joyner threw a forty yard pass
to Johnson for a first down on
the afternoon class's twenty
yard line. After a run and two
pass plays failed to click. Joy
ner attempted a field goal from
the thirty yard line. His drop
kick fell a few feet short how
ever and the ball went over on
on downs. Ed Lilly, halfback for
the afternoon class, ran the sec
ond half kickoff back sixty yards
to the “sunrise” boys thirty-five
yard line. This was by far the
longest run of the day. Both
teams played great defensive
but lacked the offensive power
to put over a touchdown.
CLASSES PLAY OTHER
GAMES
On November 6, the morning
class defeated the afternoon class
by the narrow margin of 3-0. The
score came on a field goal by
Joyner late in the first half. The
“sunset” boys threatened several
times but were unable to make a
score.
The game played on November
8, produced one thrilling play
which proved later to be the
winning factor. Early in the first
quarter with the ball on his own
six yard line, McKibben, right
halfback of the afternoon class,
dropped back behind his own
goal line and tossed a short pass
to Rudolph Murphy on the
twenty. Murphy found himself
in the clear and raced 80 yards
for a touchdown. This was the
only score of the game so it end
ed 6-0.
A pass interception by Nally
gave the afternoon class a 60
victory on November 13. Nally
took the ball on his opponents
thirty yard line and went all the
way for the score.
Well, touch football again
reaches the end of its road. Win
or lose though, everyone seems
to be satisfied because the games
were played in the spirit of fun,
and good sportsmanship was dis
played throughout. Whether it
be “touch” or “tackle,” football
continues to be the great Ameri
can game.
GIRLS BEGIN VOLLEYBALL
Helen Dyer and Glenn Crow
der won the doubles tennis tour
nament last Saturday by defeat
ing Jane Goode and Vivian Doss
with a score of 6-1, 6-2. Misses
Goode and Doss played good
games but that Dyer kid was too
much for them. These games
ended the tennis work-outs for
the year.
Now that soccer has been
adieu the girls are taking up a
game that is not so rough and
complicated. This game is volley
ball and is proving quite interest
ing. Tournaments for volleyball
will lie held after Thanksgiving
holidays.
There were 14 games played
in the tournament with 337
girls playing at some time. 62
girls entered the intramural
games and they each received
25 points toward their block let
ters.
The election for Freshman of
ficers to fill the vacant offices
