Guest Editor
For "Field And Stream"
Babcock Declares Amateurs Enjoy
Sports More Than
Professionals
Doctor Havilah Babcock, professor
of English, appears as guest editorial
[ writer in the current issue of Picld and
Stream, for which lie is assigned a
special page.
In the article, "The Philosophy of
! a Second-Rater," Doctor Babcock advances
the idea that the amateur possesses
certain advantages over the pro|
fessional in any form of sport, because,
while the professional has the element
of speculation reduced to a minimum,
$ the amateur has "alluring uncertainty"
JW 011 his side.
The University professor also has a
story in the current issue of "Outdoor
?S: Life," entitled "Irish." According to
The State, "This story depicts the reI
markable intelligence of an Irish setter
& and the peculiar esteem in which the
? dog was held by his owner, an over[
corpulent country doctor whose one
' passion was bird hunting. This story,
iff Doctor Babcock's friends say, was inf
spired by the experience of a comH
panion of his in an unvailing search for
a lost Irish setter."
A third story, highly advertised by
'Jk the magazine in which it is published,
m 's carr'c<' this month under a pseuJif
donym. Like the majority of Doctor
l? Babcock's stories, this one also has a
X Southern background.
During the past eighteen months
1 more than two dozen articles and
j&\ stories by the professor have appeared
$ in national magazines. Most of them
gp have outdoor backgrounds and a
Southern locale.
Doctor Babcock's stories reflect a
| wide variety of interest, ranging from
& descriptions of Low Country life,
? stories of South Carolina Negroes,
and turkey-hunting odysseys in the
& deep swamps, to bullfrogs and wliimsical
stories telling how northern girls
ig lose their shirt-tails on southern deer
drives.
jjjj He has even found time to discover
|P and classify for sporting magazines
and scientific societies what appears
to be a new sub-species of the black
D bass.
Scarcely any two stories have been
w on the same subject. His stories, even
R when depicting familiar scenes, are
R marked by a literary flavor that sets
l| them apart.
Doctor Babcock belongs to the
group of South Carolina nature writers,
including Archibald Rutledge, Herbert
? Ravancl Sass, and others, who are
doing a great deal to reveal to the
outside world the charms of the Palmetto
State. Although a comparative
newcomer in the field, his name is
perhaps appearing as frequently in outdoor
magazines as that of any other
ft South Carolinian.

Illumination Is
Seminar Subject
"Illumination" was the subject of
a lecture given the seminar of the
electrical engineering classes at their
regular meeting Friday by Gerald H.
Preacher, a former graduate of the
electrical engineering class and now
connected with the Broad River
Power Company.
A revealing demonstration was presented
with a special apparatus that
showed the effect of various color mixtures
when combined with units of
! modern lighting. Another phase of
the experiment showed the students
how the most efficient illumination
might be obtained in various situations.
