Campus Boasts "Drug" Gardens One of the latest ventures in the beautifying of the campus has been the planting of a "drug" garden for the use of the pharmacy department. This newest botanical effort has been placed in a plot behind LeConte College near the tennis courts. Reports say that it is coming along attractively. The beds are being filled with Zinnias, Marigolds, and Periwinkles, according to Prof. E. C. Coker, chairman of the house and grounds committee. % "The flowering Lanterns, Michaelmas Daisies, Yellow Cassias, Petunias, Red Salbias, and other late flowers lend a lively touch of bright color to the various parts of the campus," Professor Coker said in discussing the work. Many have noticed that the illusion of spring has been carried into late autumn by the patches of late flowers about the University grounds. Recent rains, together with the hard work of those in charge, have given them and the lawns a refreshing brightness. U. N. O.

W aternity Paper Work Shows Advance Alpha Pai Omega9* "Playbill" Praise8 Local Group In Recent Article "The Palmetto 'Players have gone their successful way by maintaining high standards through intelligent labor in .the theatre itself thus rendering the best possible social service," praises the "Playbill" of Alpha Psi Omega, national honorary dramatic fraternity in a recent issue. In a two page article decorated with illustrations the fraternity mag* azine discussed the work during the past year of the local group of actors under the direction of Professor William Dean. "Up to this point the players have shown a considerable advance in their stage management, and improvement in their staging, (considering the immense difficulties of {he chapel stage) and a well balanced selection of players doing such excellent ensemble work to raise the quality of the acting to higher levels." Following this comment the article listed the various plays presented by the players and also the features sponsored by them during the past season. Also the development of a Junior Shakespeare Society, an exposition of a new venture undertaken by the students. Mistake Noted 1 By Dean Rowe j At the request of Dean W. E. ? Rowe of the Engineering School' the I Gamecock wishes to correct a mistaken impression which has resulted from a write up of the requirements for higher engineering degrees which appeared in last week's issue of this paper. "The degrees of M. S. in Chemical Engineering, M. S. in Civil Engineering and M. S. in Electrical Engineering will be conferred upon candidates who have already received the cor- I responding B. S. degree in Engineer- I ing and who in addition complete in I residence the fifth year's work. A P candidate for either of these degrees '4 must pass a formal test showing a ? reading knowledge of French or Ger- I man," we quote from the University catalogue. It is regretable that this matter 1 w?s not stated and the Gamecock is I glad for the opportunity to make the I correction. u. a. o.
