Many "first downs" are ini
dence ol tie calipis. Which is
die to the popularity of football.
Statistics show that the college
graduate's chance to make goo( is
ten times better thaln that of tle
high school graduate: it is nea ry
twenty-two times better thanl is
that of the elementary school gra
duate. and 927 times better thli
that of the individual w\itlIout any

It's Carolina Day.
Again the fierce and fiery Tirer

show or point out a way. and in
order to point out a way, one must
know a way. Now it is impossible
to gain all the knowledge necess
ury to be a leader in foIr short
years at college. "No one ever
dreamed of imparting learning to
Iindergradiuates. It cannot be done
in four years. To become aI mIlan
of learning is tile enterprise of a
lifetime."
Not Iere leariig is involved
inl the process of developing lead

The Bond of Union Between the
University and the High School.
There is a growing (eman(l to
(lay for closer relationship be
tweenl higli schools of the State
and the State University. The
Iniversity is bult a "cap" to I
y(ounig man's education, and with
out that cap the citizen of this
colilloniwealth is seriously hand
icapped in performing tne func
tionls before him in later years.
The I'niversity needs the Iligh
Schools and the Ilih Schools
need the University-they indeed
fori but one unit in public edu
cation. The State of South Caro
lina is rapidly recognizing these
two institutions as an indispensi
ble unit in ler progress, and she
is more and more increasing
me1ans Whereby the two iay be
miore closel N linked.
le high school student is
'grist", so to speak, for tie great,
"'edllcational mill." Whether this
grist comes out of the nil1 a first
class finished product depends
largely on the preparation before
entering tle "finiishing process."
'ch ile publicatiom has been given
ml reet yrs to a statement that
the Staite U Tniversit ies have to
dr op a larmge number of Fresh men
dur ig their nimnthis ini college dlue
to i nab)ilIity to dto satiusfactory ('o1
lege work. This hbeing the (Rise,
prcepaiiritioni of stud(enits for hiigh
er edu icaitioni should be oneW of the
prnime interests of the high school.
If by Mantrch in the Senior year of
high school the stud(enit (does not
kntow whmether lhe will enter the
Uiversity the niext Sep)teimbher lie
maiRy he sure that lie is not "pre
p)ared.'' Iigh schools (call irg(e
studoenmts to plani for am Untivers(ity
(caIreer,. to take defin411ite' couirses in
p)(lrpartioni. Students should
tnmreovecrinderstand1( the waste ini

that~ the StaIte e'xI)ends huge suns

utcntioni for studannts wit n m
bition-und1 that a student is one
who studies and that study is but
a synonyi of hard work. The
State <Ioes not, invest these for
tiues expecting to reap no benle
fit : sihe, expects <livi<lenis in the
form of capable an<( sane lenler
ship as a citzenl---imlorally, social
l. intellectually. amd plysicallY.
We adiit that a higher edlica
tionl deman<s a "dear price" from
the student also and that is proh
abl, wlV such a sillII per cent

versity Career. One does not al
way%s considler that in life, inl
CreT.m1silmg( m1onIy Va1lue is <directlv
proportionll1 to inceaising ediea
tion. The attainment to a highler
degrev of edlication and cultlire
shoill therel'ore he a just motive
for the sacrifice and struggle in
vol ved. Nevertlhleless, the school
boy and girl imist see immediate
dividends oil the investment inl
edu(hcation and they a Ire da ily
asking "Will It P'av ?" FutIIre
efliciency mul plrominilleice answer,
"It Will."
Entrance into the University of
South Carolilina is the logical
Cour11se for the high school radMiui
ates of this State to follow. A
Uni versity edication does not
seek scholarship primarily but I
clalice to live with others oi
terms of syillpatl U :il service
vith ze'a.1loui- eo-operation with all
for t he welfare of Caroina !
Carolina rejoices every, year to
welcome several hun1i1dred high
School students oin her callpls
and participate inl their various
school activities here -elebrated
athletics. literar decla ations.
and debates. all forIms of colleg're
activities. Thle IUiversity in
turn wishes that every high
school student in this state oiild
participate in Ier activities all as
one great State Institution: the
various Carolina organizations
and activities are but those of
higl school on a hlrger seale.
Let's have a closer union and
co-operation between the high
schools ald the State University;
Carolina will do her bit!
