It has long been the,custon} for incoming staffs to make a formal bow to the public, coupled. with more or less. slush about their principles and aims. But, we of the present staff do not bow, we grip our pens, grit our teeth, rumple our hair, and pre pare for the conflict. We have - a definite service to perform, and we will' avoid no sacrifice necessary to its accom plishment. Latin, Greek, and Math. may now return to the, vacuity from from whence they were evolved.- Hereafter we confidently expect to see manifes tations of surprise(?) by our pro fessors when we announce "un prepared." It's such an unusual thing, you know. But ba that as it may, The Gamecock shall have our best. A CHANGE IN MANAGEMENT. With the present issue of The Gamecock the first managing editor goes into office. For some time it has been evident that the duties of the editor-in chief were entirely too onerous. Accordingly the staff has been increased by the appointment of a managing ed itor to have charge of the news gathering and the mechanical make up of the sheet. The present editor-in-chief is fortunate enough to have on his staff several men of such. proved ability that a choice between them was very difficult. Mr. John B. Duffie of Sumter, a member of the senior law class, was finally selected to preside over the destinies of the news department. The Gamecock is fortunate in securing a man of such varied experience, both as an office man and an active re porter. Almost a Necessity. To the Editor of The Gamecock: I wish to have just a few words to say to those interested in Carolina's welfare and up building. If I have been cor rectly informed the infirmary, mess hall, and the upper part of the gymnasium have been heated by steam heat for some time. If we. have heat in the upper part of the gym., which is not as important as the lower house (so to speak)-that is the house -in ,whieh all bills pertain ing to the..annaratian or. e Wr3C== 'in' the gdl he sportsst tenest get into' Who' It's the aL D s ire .nuff .mnen th'secret o''VEI success iits>" all ness."

C6Ec0' mortals from the excess dust of which they are created together with all unnecessary. things gathered from the faculty-why not have .the lower house heated also duringgthe winter months? This may be considered a little matter, however, it is a change that is needed. If, steam heat could not be furnished this year it seems to me one or two large stoves in the the center of the room would be sufficient. The Marshal is in favor of this im provement and no doubt Dr. Currell will heartily sanction it if he has been informed of the existing condition. It is not only disagreeable it is dangerous to go thru the opera tion above mentioned in such a Polar piace (that is North Pole of course). Carolina lost an ex cellent young man last winter, Mr. Roy Q. Mitchell. who died of pneumonia. I was in a posi tion to know something about his sickness. One wintry day he went over to.the gymnasium, took his exercise and bath in the chilled room and immediate ly after that he took a very deep cold and it had him almost in bed for some time. He con tracted measles while this cold was in his system and it was but a few days until it was announc ed that he had pneumonia. I think the infirmary authorities will agree with me that this young man (lid not contract pneumonia while in the -infirm ary but already had it in his sys tem. I am frank in stating that I believe that the failure to have the gymnasium heated contri buted largely to the loss of such a bright young lad. I respect fully submit to the consideration of the faculty and the student body this urgent need. Respectfully, Marvin R..Reese.
