★ This Is So
This is “so long but not goodby’ ’for the Daily Trojan today. We’ll be coming at you again next fall from the Same old stand but with some fresh faces in the staff line-up.
During the last year it has been our good fortune to work with a wonderful group of staff members to put out the DT.f It has been hard work, but the staff I come through when the going has •n rough. To all of them—and would it space would permit our naming them *re—thank you and good luck.
The DT also is indebted to members of le faculty and administration for their elp during the past year. It has enjoyed their cooperation and sympathetic attitude. A special thank-you should go to our good friends in the department of evelopment and the SC News Bureau for their assistance. It is comforting to know also, that when the DT has troubles, Dean Hyink and Dr. Aloia can come to our des-cue.
Most of all, the DT must thank you, the student body at large, for your support.
There have been times when you’ve been unhappy — when that meeting notice didn’t make the paper or your name was misspelled or your favorite story was “butchered.” We’re sorry. But you’ve continued to do business with us, and we’re grateful to you. The DT revolves around students and student activities; it is compiled by students mainly for the entertainment and information of other students. We depend on you primarily' for our news. We have tried to represent varying campus opinions accurately and believe that one measure of our success is that both sides have complained. That shows that we have stayed in the middle.
Wide opportunities for improvement of the DT will offer themselves to the new staff next year. We are sure they will produce a better paper than this year’s; the new staff has learned from our mistakes. But all in all, the last year has been good. It’s a relief, then, to stop playing the sentimental violin we’ve been carrying for the last few paragraphs and say “30.”

Pi Phis Nudge DGs in First Cheesecake Tiff
Poderpuffs Score 6-5 Win in Chest Benefit Contest
by Rocki Rhodes
Abner Doubleday, the father of baseball, must have turned over in his grave several times yesterday afternoon after the exhibition given on Bovard field between the Dee Gee Diamond Dainties and the Pi Phi Powderpuffs.
In a game appropriately described as the “zaniest ever held on Bovard field,” the never-say-die Pi Phi “ten” arose from the depths of defeat to post a 6-5 win over the Dee Gees. The victory gave the Powderpuffs the first annual “Cheesecake series” championship.
Proceeds from the game, which was under the direction of Terry Taft, will go to the Trojan Chest.
The Dee Gees, sparked by the sterling play of first-baseman Joann Peterson and shortstop Charlotte Mueller, grabbed an early first inning lead over their Pi Phi opponents and thereafter appeared to have the game safely won. Ahead 5-3 going in the final frame, the Dee Gees, however, saw all hopes of conquest vanish as the peppery Pi Phis pushed across three runs for a 6-5 advantage.
Slaps Single Hero of the Pi Phi win was Shirley Conroy. Stepping into the batter’s box with two out in the seventh and with her team behind. Miss Conroy promptly slapped a single to score the winning run.
Also playing important roles in the Pi Phi victory were shortstop Janie “Nefarious” Cochrane and pitcher Marcia Woodward.
Miss Cochrane more than lived up to her reputation as the “Dangerous Redhead” with her sterling play at the shortstop patch. Turning in an outstanding defensive game, Miss Cochrane also recorded a 2-for-4 batting mark.*
Miss Woodward, after a shaky, start, more than showed her famous curves in the final innings of play.
Outstanding Performers Even in defeat, Miss Peterson and Miss Mueller gained honors as two of the game’s most outstanding performers. Miss Peterson completely amazed the 1000 attending “baseball enthusiasts” (?) with her flawless play at the first-base sack.
Much to the surprise of the gallery, and especially to herself, Miss Peterson turned in the outstanding defensive play of the game in the second inning. With runners' on first and second, “Squatty” Peterson made a sensational catch of a sizzling line-drive and in the process of get-ting-up off the ground inadvertently tagged first base for the force play.
Miss Mueller’s performance at shortstop was equally outstanding.
Highly Unorthodox
The highly-unorthodox game, which according to many observers, “set baseball back 15 years,” also resulted in several comical antics on the part of the Diamond Dainties £ind the Powder-puffs.
One Powderpuff in particular, short-fielder Doone Hills, will reportedly have “to eat dinner off of the mantle” for the next few days. In the second inning, Miss Hills let out a squeal and slid into second base, bouncing three times on her other end.
Dee Gees, meanwhile, were busily rehashing the game today in an effort to find where their highly vaunted scoring attack fell through. In answer to the weighty problem, Dee Gees were using the loss of slugger Dallas Peterman as the contributing factor to the Delta Gamma loss.
Finger Injury Miss Peterman suffered a painful finger injury in practice last week and therefore was forced to sit out yesterday’s game.
Delta Gammas were also deeply concerned over the condition of Batboy Ken Shanks. Apparent ly crushed over the loss suffered by his underlings. Shanks was reportedly headed for San Francis co in order “to get away from*it all.”

In an open discussion on grades, it was decided yesterday that the best way to make good grades is to put 15 weeks of studying into it.
Some suggestions, however, were made by Dr. Paul Hadley, professor of international relations, Ken Shanks, interfraternity coordinator, and Jim Smith, student debater at noon in the international lounge on how a student could retain himself in school if he had let his studying slip.
The best thing to do, said Shanks, is to go to the professor of your class and find out how back work can be made up. Also it is important to know what course material will be stressed in the final examination.
The trouble is, though, said Shanks, that students who are doomed to fail, unless they put forth some effort, continue to sit dazedly in class soaking up the spring sunshine;
Emphasis Laid Smith laid emphasis to the first five weeks of the semester as the time to open the books.
He said the student who becomes well acquainted with the course material in the early stage will understand better what
information is brought out in the later stages of the course.
About preparing for tests, Smith said it wasn’t smart to stay up all night studying.
“Set aside a couple of hours every afternoon to study and no 11th hour cramming will be necessary,” Smith said.
“In taking examinations it is advisable to answer only the questions you know, because you save time by ’ doing so and hints to those you don’t know may be found farther back in the test,” he said.
Go back over the test when you have finished and see that you have put the pencil mark in the answer square if it is a machine graded type, he said.
Probation Help
For those who do make less than a .5 and are placed on scholastic probation for a semester, Dr. Hadley said each school or department corresponds with the student on probation, as does both the counselor of men and women.
If the student on probation needs help, the various departments have advisory agencies set up to give aid. Tutors will be arranged for through the department or the employment bureau if they are needed.
