U. D. C. BACKS UNIVERSITl In the first issue of the GAMIcoc: we ann1ionced the establishing of co-ed scholarship at the University b the Civic Ieagiue of Columbia. It ha since been brought to our attentioz that the first scholarship for co-ed! was established last April by the Ridg teDistrict of the United Daughters o the Confederacy. It is valted at $12 andi has been awarded to Miss Wrenn; Hancock, one of our juniors, who is at exceptionally hard working student. Thle U. 1). C.. is divided into fou districts in this state.

AN APPRECIATION We,. te staff oif the GAMEcocK, ii behal f of the students of the Universiti of South Carolina, wvishi to thank thu S-ra'rE for its ed(itorials wrnitten duiring thle summllIer imonths in dlefenlse of ou UnTliversit y. There has beeni in th, itela tt 10 elte a gipsg Cm ol4' Mos fUor he~ trn Iuntetn .h'tdi -.,.. a--a of knowledge of the real state of t alTairs. The' University as described I by the STATF is "ati ilStitutioll that I has been kicked about by politicians , more than All others together in this state and has received less itn money than aity other slate i,nstitution of higher learning." During Jul% the STATiF carried on a series of verbal fights with other news papers in the state. The chief issue -was tle proposition that the University cointrolled a ring in the General Assem lyl . The Yo t%-itx Ex eu it observ ed that the legislature contained men bers who were also University students. I le STATE l.aintained that the Univer sity was n;ol a power in politics; that its graduates were mostly leaders !n the educational field and not in the pol itical world; that the occasional clec tion of a student to the legislature was not harmful but was also not expedient. The reasons given for the last state ment were the fact that students were too yoing and inexperienced to make the laws of our state and the belief that students of a state institution should a not be inl active politics. We wish to thank the STrrE for pre senting so well our case to the people of the state. The only )point which we differ is that about student members of the legislature. They, are not inexper ienced they were ol enough to fight ill 1917, and one of them was overseas for ni.neteen months. They are capable members of the General Assembly. In our thanks to the Newspapers we want to includlle the CoLUMiiA RILon with the S-rr for news articles about Carolina. The papers of the city are doing much to correct the wrong opin ions about Carolina and we thank them. --U.S.C.-__ THE LIBRARY The writer does not know exactly what policy the library committee is g4)ing to pursue this year in regards to the hours which the library is to be opened every Sundva a fternoon.
