Students Review
Beauty Pagent
Various opinions were expressed
about the Beauty Pageant by representative
students of the campus when
interviewed by members of The Gamecock
staff.
The majority seemed to think it
would be a good idea if altered in one
respect?that is, if no candidates could
be nominated other than those selected
by the judges.
Some thought it a stupid idea while
others thought it good.
Opinions of a few arc:
Dick Foster?"I'm not in favor of it
as 's- I'<l he in favor of it if the
May Queen candidates were confined
to the one in the beauty pageant. I
believe the queen should be selected
for beauty and beauty alone."
Dave Ellison?"I'm in favor of the
pageant in some aspects, I don't see
how it will eliminate politics. Thirtysix
hours arc given and a lot of "politicing"
can be done in 36 hours. I
think the student body constitution
should have been amended whereby
no others could be nominated."
Annie Maude Huiet seems to believe
that it will help to eliminate politics
and that pretty girls will be selected.
Although she admits there will still
be some politics.
Dick Evans?"It good looking girls
fio out for it, it will be a help. I
don t think it will do away with politics
after they are nominated, but it
will in the beginning."

Dean Crow Speaks To
Teachers Association
"Teachers too often lack the neccssary
amount of training and knowledge
of affairs to render adequate service
to people living in communities
without libraries or other sources of
information," declared Dr. Orin F.
Crow, dean of the school of education,
in a speech delivered recently before
the Calhoun County Teachers' Asso:iation
at St. Matthews.
"1 hope to live to see the day when
teachers are people," he said.
A partisan is a person who uses
:atchwords and thinks they are opinions.
It was Longfellow who said that
a man must be either a hammer or
an anvil. But he overlooked the fact
that a goodly number prefer to be the
bellows.
