Story Of Repu Consider ? Vote Taken By Twenty-Seven Gamecock Staff Members; Other Stories Mentioned According to a vote taken by 27 members of The Gamecock staff, the best news story of the year was that which told of the repudiation of Jiin Galloway by his former ally, John Bolt (Cotton) Culbertson. This story received the unanimous vote of all participating, 27 in all. The next highest vote was polled by the story which gave the account of the Auburn game. This story received 24 votes. Third with 21 votes came the story of Professor Mills' theory as to the mechanical origin of the universe. The story which received the fourth highest number of votes was that which dealt with the protest of the Student Body in connection with the extra fee charged for the Clcmson game, while the forced withdrawal from school of Dave Mecrs, star tackle and the recognition of the University of South Carolina credits by New York University tied for fifth place. Other stories which received a large number of votes were the scoring of the debating council by Stanley Bryant, the address of Senator Cooper before the Roosevelt-Garner club, and the election of members to O.

W. G. Ilazel, of the Renncttsvillc Pee Dee Advocate, who with II. R. Sims, of the Orangeburg Times and H Democrat, is co-chairman of the association's legislative committee, will be asked to speak on the libel law. Attendance at the institute last year was between 60 and 70, far exceeding the expectations of officials, and this year's meeting is even expected to excecd last year's. At the closc of the session in 1032, Captain William E. Gonzales, editor of the Columbia State, said the institute was "the most interesting and helpful newspaper gathering he ever attended." Several students in the School of Journalism at the University will serve as guides to direct the visiting members to the Euphradian hall and the luncheon at 2 o'clock. > l C Mon.?Tues.?Wed. 1 1 CONSTANCE BENNETT C ? and i | JOEL McCREA 1 C "ROCKABYE" ( / Thurs.?Fri.?Sat. \ / ROBT.

In 1926 the amount per student was $373 while in 1932 it was $192. Totals for the total appropriation, number of students enroled, and the appropriation per student for the past four years are as follows: 1929, $454,080 appropriation, 1,638 enrolment, $283 per student; 1930, $423,875 appropriation, 1,710 enrolment, $258 per student; 1931, $375,000 appropriation, 1,810 enrolment, $215 per student; 1932, $312,000 appropriation, 1,782 enrolment, $192 per student. Although $:il2,000 was appropriated for the University last year, up to date considerable less than that amount has been actually disbursed by the state due to a shortage in the state treasury. All state employees arc at present encountering a paylcss period because of lack of funds caused by a large deficiency in anticipated revenue. University professors, who received drastic salary reductions at the beginning of the present scholastic year, received a further actual reduction when they received only a small per cent of their salaries for November and no salaries at all for December and January work. If the recommended appropriation is passed the University will be placed in an even more critical position than that in which it found itself last year. Last year it was only by the most rigid economy and by the elimination of all expenditures not absolutely essential immediately that the University was able to maintain the minimum standards required for membership in the Southern Association of colleges and universities. Work done in colleges not recognized by the association is not accredited by members of the association. At the present time professors' salaries are at the minimum required by the association. Any further reduction in the appropriation to the University will probably entail a great reduction in the number of schools and departments and, it is possible, the lowering of standards to such an extent that the University will be debarred from the association.

That the sisters of some of these very creditors are often lecturing in churches on Foreign Missions and Ministerial relief is bemoaned by Professor Kilpatrick. xj. m. a. Give Medal In Essay Contest (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) essay will be published in the last issue of The Carolinian. I he late Dr. W. T. C. Bates, an alumnus and for many years a trustee of the University, donated a thousanddollar bond, the interest on which was to be used for awarding a medal annually to the student at the University who contributed the best literary production to one of the campus publications. The medal is valued at $50, and is enscribed with the names of the donor and winner. It is awarded under the direction of the Department of English. I'or four successive years the medal was awarded for essays published in 7he Carolinian, the fourth year going lo Peurifoy Stevenson for her essay on "The New Biography." For two years it was given for poetry, and was won by Max Revclis, with J. Mitchell Morse and Rowcna Jones taking second and third places, respectively; and by J. Mitchell Morse. At the meeting of the committee held shortly before the holidays the following students and professors were present: Dr. George A. Wauchope, head of the English department; Professor Joseph E. Norwood; John A. Giles, editor of The Gamecock; W. B. King, associate editor of The Gamecock; Colonel J. Rion McKissick, Dean of the School of Journalism; and Sarah Mills, associate edtor of The Carolinian. Foster Will Report Soon (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) to the ban was voiced were generally those who withdrew into the new Southeastern conference. In a statement made to The Gamccock shortly before he left for the Knoxville convention, Doctor Foster had emphatically voiced opposition to the lifting of the ban on broadcasting. He based his opposition on the fact that, whereas college sports live by means of newspaper publicity, it would be knifing the press in the back to hand over to the radio, its direct competitor, the broadcasting of games. Doctor Foster also added that since athletics depend on a firm financial backing it was not right for those who do not pay to enjoy the privilege of hearing the games broadcast. He did, however, say that radio, if the conference decided to allow its use next year, might help to "educate" the people to an appreciation of the game, and might "eventually do, the game some good." u.

The committee to provide this course will be composed of the following: Dr. L,. T. Baker, Dean Rion J. McKissick of the School of Journalism, and Professors Yates Snowden, E. L. Green, H. C. Davis, and R. L. Meriwether. In submitting his report on the progress of the University, Dr. Baker said that at the recent meeting in New Orleans of the commission of higher learning of the Southern Association of colleges and universities, after consideration of the usual triennial survey of all departments of the University, a report had been made commending the University for the progress it had made and for the high standard of teaching that had been maintained.
