KOLLEGE KNEWS Again returning to a temporarily abandoned department of The Game cock, we come forth this week with an exchange column. If we deviate from the charted path or commit some breach of Journalistic etiquette, please pardon us, for ye editor is by no means a veteran scribe. Our purpose is to dip occasionally into the news of our brother (and sister) institutions of instrv.tion through the medium of their organs of vociferation and acquaint ourselves, if possible, with their pet philosophies and theories of this hectic-existence. Through the medium of this column we hope also to engender a feeling of closer relation ship betwten our cprrespondents and ourselves. Criticisms and other com ments are at all times solicited from those with whom we exichange. We observe that Maryland has blossomed forth with a renovated campus. The slogan there is "Keep 'er clean." We might ourselves soak that in. "Little bits of paper into mighty heaps of rubbish grow." (Apologies to the man who thought of that before I did.) We congratulate P.C. of S.C. on their new stadium dedicated Friday.Completed at a cost of $15,000, and providing ac commodation for 3,000 people, the stad ium stands as a significant marker in the tribe increase I The Tiger of October 10 announces that the entire Clemson student body will attend the State Fair this year. The Cadets will not encamp at the fair grounds as in previous years, but will be given leave from Thursday morning until Sunday night so as to have the privilege of attending the game and then going to their homes for the week-end. This announcement is received with pleasure not only by the Cadets but also by the Carolina students, since the annual ensemble of the two stu dent bodies is looked forward to here as one of the high lights of the year. Owing to the abandonment of the camp, there will undoubtedly be a large percentage of the cadets who will find accommodations with friends oh the campus. It is the duty of every student here from grad to frosh to ex tend to the visitors a hearty reception, and show to them the true Carolina hospitality. We hope that the authorities of the University will show to the students here the same consideration that has been exibited at Clemson, and allow us, too, an extra day, so that we may have the pleasure of looking forward to a fair week without an unconven tional Saturday of sparsely-attended, insipid classes. Much has been said and written s'bout the failure of students to read intensively and with concentration. 5Some critics say we are even void of thi" art of reading. Whatever the case there are sonme truths in this clipping. WVe do about as much reading as a nenguin-or I should say a Phoenix hird-for we nightly rise out of our ashes and leave the bridge-table till the next morning. Hwcan wve readl? Our campuses are over-organized-like steel mills but miinus the scientific management. We're caught in a cross-traffic jam of acti vities with no red and green lights. We're drugged with the buzz and chat ter, like a riveter with no red. To be quiet and think-just think for a while I Yet when we try it we find it's become for us a lost art in which there is no relish. It is no wonder that students would often like to quote Shakespeare con cerning us-" 0, lhe's as tedious as a tred horse, a railing wife; worse than a smoky house; I had rather live with chees and garlic in a windmill, far, than feed on .cates, and have him talk to me in any summer-house in Christ endlom." Occasionally we have a tremendous temptation to cut classes and com muittee meetings andl tear awvay from the whole business-smashing the win dows of the nearest book store and* carrying with us a few books.

Although the fac ulty adviser, Wilbur Zeigler, was not present, plans were made for the work of the new year and requirements for membership agreed upon. Hereafter, all proposed members must have com pleted a yea1 of Spanish with a term average of not less than "'B". All candidates meeting this requirement must receive the unanimous vote of the Society before they may be ad mitted.

Per haps we don't cut classes or smash the windows, but we've got to get our hands on some books somewhere or disastrous consequences may follow later in life. Those who have continu ally denied this impulse have been known to develop severe cases of cul tural coma, narrow-mindedness, and even egocentric vacuity.

H. Atkinson, son of the late Dr. W. R. Atkinson, former president of Chicora College, and a former stu dent of the University, spoke to the up per classmen in chapel Thursday, Oct ober 11th. Dr. Atkinson has been a prominent figure in religious educational circles for many years and is now engaged in that type of work in North Carolina. He was in Columbia last week attending the synod of the Presbyterian church of South Carolina. He spoke to the students on "The type of young men and women our schools and colleges should be turning out today", telling them that what they needed was character, conviction, and conscience. Dr. Atkinson also urged the students to read their Bibles, stating that the greatest thing in the world was God's word. Several ministers of the cityvisited chapel last week and invited the stu. dents to attend their churches and wel comed them back to the Capital City. Among these were Rev. Dean Crain, of Park Street Baptist Church, and Dr. Wiliis of the First Christian church and the Rev. Mr. Phillips, of Arsenal Hill Presbyterian Church. Full Library Service To Begin Saturday Prof. R. M. Kennedy, librarian of the University, recently stated that the bot tom floor of the library would probably be ready for use by Saturday, October 20th. Complete library service will also be begun at that time. The main reading room upstairs has been open for the past week, and it is as much improved as early reports indicat ed. There are seven large reading ta bles in the room, each having from four to eight chairs, as well as two sofas, so plenty of room is assured anyone who wishes to use the library.
