INTELLIGENCE TESTS
BASIS FOR FRES
The Personnel Bureau wishes to cor- 1
feet a general misapprehension picvalent t
among students that no use is made of i
the various tests given at the beginning s
of the year. Considerable use is being f
made of these tests as a partial basis of i
professional guidance, administration and '
"?counsel. r
c
This year the test scores were used t
in registering freshmen as a basis of a
variation of course load. Those students
within the lowest fifth of scores of the a
freshmen class were limited to four r
courses. This was done as a possible t
means of reducing failures among poorly a
prepared students. Similarly, recognition j,
was made of the fact that the upper fifth (
of incoming freshmen class is intellec- t
tually and scholastically capable of carry- j
ing more work than the average and so
were permitted to register for six j
courses if they desired. The middle three- j
fifths were assigned to the normal five ,%
courses. s
In addition to this use of the test data c
at the time of registration, the English ?
Department based its classification of

And Alumni Through

*
Five thousand attractive "Carolina"
stickers have been printed, and will be
given out/to students free of charge on

appearing on the top of a triangle, and
a Gamectock standing on the background
of a drawing of the shape of the state
of South Carolina. They are printed on
garnet paper.
The stickers will be delivered to the
students from the postoffice. A large
number will be mailed to the alumni.
O. D. K. has made many contributions
to the University?among them being the
sun dial in front of the Law Building.
The fraternity was also instrumental in
having the telephone exchange installed.
WILBUR ZEIGLER
Wilbur Zeigler, former instructor in
the Romance Language department of
the University, in a letter to Professor
Oscar L. Keith says that he misses
Carolina and feels that he has not really
left it but is only on a vacation.
Mr. Zeigler left the University seven
months ago to take over a job with the
British-American Tobacco Company
in Cristobal.
The letter gives a very interesting
Insight into the life that Mr. Zeigler
is leading in the southern hemisphere.
"I am getting so sunburned," reads the
letter, "that I expect to be taken for
a native by the tourists."
FROSH MEDICAL

movie stars of Hollywood, Professor

You can't park there.
Yes, I can. I just got a ticket for it.
"I'll have you know?hie?hie?hie,
that I'm part of the Standard Oil Company."
"And what part are you?"
"Hie?one of the tanks."
The inebriated individual stumbled, '
fell on one knee, and then rolled over
into the gutter. A traveler in passing,
caused to inquire the location of the nearest
hotel.
"Brother," gurgled the prostrate one,
"thish is the right place. Plenty of room
and running water."
