against your teachers; second, that
some way be devised to exercise economy
without irreparably crippling the
nerve centers of our educational system."
Dr. Wardlaw explained that the salaries
of professors had remained stationary
when others were increased,
the present proposed reduction in effect
amounts to two or three decreases,
and that it will make the salaries
of full professors no greater
than those paid to employees of the
state with far less preparation and far
less responsibility.
"According to our information, no
county or city in the state and no business
house proposes a cut in salaries
so great as the one that has been proposed
for the teachers in your higher
institutions, who have had a strugg e
to meet the demands of a standard of
living as inexorable as the laws of
nature," Dr. Wardlaw said.
He pointed out the danger of breaking
up the institutions' personnel, and
the lowering of the standards of the
institution.
"We have pleaded, not primarily
for instructors and institutions but
for the welfare of the whole people.
"We have urged that our young
people be not urged to inferior instruction.
"We have asked that we may not
be guilty of bad faith with our own
boys and girls. We have begged that
our graduates may walk on a footing
?f equality with those of any other
st ate.
"We have besought that you pro
tect the fair name of South Carolina
from shame."

Protest Professor's Dragging Girls
From Parked Cars To Make
Example
In view of the fact that the Engineers'
dance is now in the annals of
history we feel that we can print a
report of the strange feud raging at
the University of Wyoming as a
result of an engineering college dance
there, without casting any undue reflections
or influencing our local college
in any way.
The matter came to a head when
435 out of 500 students voted to go
on strike and prevent the maintenance
of classes when President A. G. I
Crane refused to apologize for his
actions in dragging girls from parked
cars outside the dance hall and mak- I
ing derogatory remarks as to their
characters. The students hold that
the president had no prerogative or
authority to burst in oti personal
matters, and firmly object to what
they term as insults when he suggested
that the occupants of the cars
retire to a notorious district of vice
in Laramie, the town seat of the
University.
The whole affair is unfortunate, we
believe, because both the pi*esident
and the students seem to be wrong
as the students, in an attempt to
support their actions are claiming
virtue and exaggerated innocences.
The remarks on the part of the president
were decidedly indiscreet and untactful.
The affair is receiving a great
deal of publicity in the newspapers
and a concentrated effort is being
manifested by the business men and
University representatives of Laramie,
to get a more compatible relationship
established once more.
It will be interesting to note whether
the president will have his way and
revert the school back to mid-Vic- J
torian days or if modern tradition will
triumph and campus love affairs be
followed to blossom as only such affairs
do. At any rate, the engineers
probably have the individed support
of the other colleges in a matter of
such universal importance it seems to
our amatively inclined students.

Dave Carroll And John Norwood
Are Hosts At Unqiue Party
For Law Students
A most successful imitation of a
Harvard Sunday afternoon tea was
the function given on St. Valentine's
afternoon by Dave Carroll and John
Norwood, and attended by members
of the Carolina Law school and their
dates. The hosts had just moved
into their new residence at 1714 College
street and took this opportunity
of having their "house-warming."
The crowd came early and stayed
late, being highly entertained by the
efforts of Mr. Norwood to balance a
tea-cup on his knee in the approved
Harvard fashion. (And John is quite
an artist at performing such feats.)
After much tea had been drunk and
many bon mots passed, the group dissembled
with praises for "deah ole
Harvard" and memories of a charming
afternoon.

Vocations Chosen
By Students
Asked what life work they have
chosen nearly three-fourths, or 74 per
cent, of the freshmen of the University,
said they arc going to enter professions
in which a college education is
an absolute requisite. Twenty-six per
cent are going into business life.
Parents of 13 per cent of the boys
wish them to enter the medical profession,
but 17 per cent of the boys
chose this vocation. Parents of 12
per cent wish them to enter the engineering
field, but 18 per cent chose
this line of work. Nine per cent of
the parents want their sons to enter
the profession of law, but 12 per cent
are studying for this profession.
The remaining 53 per cent will enter
20 different professions, or fields, including
education, journalism, science,
and religion. Six per cent of this remaining
group are studying pharmacy,
while 9 per cent are planning to enter
the business world.
