If every Carolina student would fellow-students around him; lend more s own personality, and seek to know himmpus would be greatly enhanced. ;thing just because your roommate does it, you stop and think whether it would be mian is created with a different make up, with a different personality, so why not ace more emphasis upon your thinking as i says some interesting things concerning :able mention. Following is an excerpt: sting statement. How can we be ourselves leath our outer makeup. The world now? Dn?is raving wildly on?and on?where? introspective thinking. Little thought is Is are adding to the great tide of human just to drone out an existence in follow: we willing to be like everybody else and script, nobody? Or are we big enough to paths ? f difference and individuality in each of billing to revolt against the dull drift of mething worth while in life? re ourselves and unlike anyone else. We ing something to our age. Let's start by Ives?and being different." the middle section down stairs is -r o reserved for students and outsiders alike. The rest of the seats are not reserved, for there are * be- some who do not wish to have re;d in served seats. The reserved seats 'lay- cost the same as the unreserved, im- being thirty-five cents for students. 3tem The Palmetto Players are stag T11 11 ing these plays primarily for th? students, and nave instituted the reserved seats for their convenience. Take advantage of this improved system, and see the productions which this group stages, for they are of a high dramatic value. u. s. c. MERRY CHRISTMAS i Since this is the last issue before the Christmas holidays The Gamecock takes this method of wishing for everyone a merry Christmas and a happy new year. The holidays will provide an opportunity for rest, but many students will use them to travel and to visit friends. Often holidays are used wrongly, i and come to be harmful rather than helpful. Examinations will begin just three weeks after the holidays are over, and this will mean much to many students, although there will be a few who will not take them seriously. The holidays could be used very wisely for some studying. Much could be learned during those few days when idleness will probably be in order. Take your books home with you, and review your various subjects, so that when January twenty-third rolls around you will not be so deep "in the fog." Again The Gamecock wishes for every one, student and faculty alike, a merry Christmas, and along with this wish a hope that Santa Claus will be kind to every one, although some of the freshmen have already received an abundance of gifts, namely in the form of nice palmetto ticklings from the sophomores. Merry Christmas! u. s. c. , PRAISE WHERE DUE Up to recent years drama in South Carolina has been confined almost entirely in the activity of its native negro. Many comments in the form of novels and sketches have portrayed our dusky neighbor as a colorful and musical race. In this enthusiasm the influential have spent their energies and have apparently forgotten the folk who guard the welfare of our state. Life as it is in the rural sections of South Carolina differs but little with that of others, and there is nothing outstanding to warrant dramatization, however, the monotony and drabness may be lessened by University influence in the form of dramatic presentation and the reading of contemporary drama through extension service. The University has placed more emphasis on this sort of endeavor, and with William Dean in charge, this work is being carried forward with a remarkable degree of success. Omicron Delta Kappa recently honored Director Dean as a leadei in his field. Samuel Selden, Stanhope Sams, Brook Atkinson, and many New York critics have taker note o,f his outstanding work at the University of South Carolina and throughout the state. The University is to be congratulated upon this endeavor and upon having a mar as Professor Dean, whose successful professional experiences in the world's theatrical centers enables him to carry this purpose forward in a thoroughly capable fashion. u. s. c. PRESERVE THEIR BEAUTS Girls are supposed to be much better looking than boys on the average. But how much longer car the beauty of the Carolina co-eds exceed that of the boys when the) have to digest such food as they are served in the dining room of the Woman's Building? Among othei things a person has to eat good heathful food to retain his or hei beauty. In former years Steward's Hall had the reputation of serving "hog slop" for food. However, under z new management recently, this condition has had a change for the better and now heath ful, tasty food is served at nearly all of the meals there. The dinners could be improved, however, by changing the meat or "horse meat," as it is generally called by the students, tc some other variety. Many students have suggested that in order to improve the morning menu the patrons could be given the choice ol cereal or regular breakfast at nc extra expense. Oh, yes, what happened to the waffle irons whiclwere going to furnish elelicious waffles to the boys every morning? u. 8. c. BLOCK LETTERS? " The Carolina varsity baseball season for 1930 closed last May. Up to the present time Blexrk C's have . / i not been awarded to the basebat players who made them. It has al ways been customary to aware 1 these letters to those who deserve i rthem, but it seems that the pre cedent will be broken this year. The only award the baseball play ers get out of slaving every afternoon during the season is the blocl letters. If the athletic authorities > follow this practice of deferring the . awards in future years as they have - this year, very few boys will go out I for the team and Carolina will nc i longer have championship basebal , teams. ? I Authorities say that the letters will be given some time in the futur< , when 'they get enough money. That will be fine, but we thinl that they should be given now ii ' there is any possible way. Why nol take some funds from football, 01 seek some gift from an alumnus who is interested in baseball in order to provide these block letters i The Gamecock knows that the Athletic Association needs tnonej and is in hard financial straits, but let's try to dig up a little in some way for this worthy cause. u.?. c. CO-EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS The trend toward consolidatior of boys' and girls' colleges into coeducational institutions is becoming more and more evident as time goes on. Recently steps looking toward the eventual consolidation of Fur man University with Greenville 11 Woman's College were taken at the 'I State Baptist convention held ir Orangeburg. Co-eds were recently admitted intoi special departments lat the Mississippi A. & M. College Many other colleges in the Unitee I States are taking or thinking aboui I taking similar steps. It is natural to have co-educa 1 tional institutions. In the gradee 1 and high schools boys and girls gc to the same schools and why no ( continue this when they go off t< : college ? When boys and girls at tend the same school, a better spiri 'Tof fellowship and companionshij ; is created. Some people senselessly argue that at co-educational in stitutions too much time is devotee ' to social life. But this is indeee | false. At strictly male and femal< ' colleges, an uncontrollable cravinf 1 to see the opposite sex is formed But here at Carolina, a co-educa : tional institution, the students set so much of the opposite sexes tha j they do not go "batty" when a gir ^ sees a boy or vice-versa. All o which goes to prove that it is mor< desirable to have colleges when members of both sexes can attene than those limited to one sex. j ^ ^ IN?? I I Grantland Sports Chuaplooi ??
