LETTER TO THE EDITOR
It would be vain indeed for us win
knew Cecil Dunn to attempt a descrip
tion of the sorrow so deep in us at th
news of his death. It is fitting, how
ever, and to some degree possible, to ex
press something of the high regar
which we all had for him. The esteer
in which Cecil is held atul the fine thing
which might be said of him have no
been fathered by our grief; it is tru
rather that our grief is the result, ou
love for him the cause. I f we were ti
say that Cecil was an ideal companior
that his disposition and eternal sinil
were always welcome, we would not b
belated, for these things were said o
him often while he was with us. It i
certain that those of us who knew bin
most intimately regret his passing mos
deeply, but tlvose whose paths neve
? crossed his and whose only contact wit!
him was a greeting now and then wil
also miss his cheery presence and hi
sincere, smiling face. It would seer
sufficient to say "He was our goot
cheerful, sincere friend. The world i
better off for his having lived upon i'
We shall miss him."
His Friends.

LAST WORD
This twelfth issue of The Gatnecoc
concludes this semester's progran
for the University weekly. The Gami
cock during this semester under th
editorship of the present editor er
deavored in every way possible t
build up good will toward the studer
paper.
One notable effort of its policy fc
this semester was full cooperatio
with the faculty in getting the sti
dents to realize the wonderful poss
bilities of the University and to brin
the students here and throughout th
state in closer association with its pui
pose and opportunities. Whether c
?n>t it has l'ully succeeded in doing th
we cannot concretely give evident
of its success, at least not for tl
time being.
/he (tamccock also this semcsti
tried earnestly to live up to its polic
of service and usefulness to the sti
dent body other than its regular new
service, by presenting to the student
a Directory, however late it was i:
sued, for their general use the reniaii
der of the semester and possibly nej
semester.
The newly elected staff, consist in
of Mr. Howard Cooper editor, T. 'J
Moore, managing editor, and Atherto
Whaley, business manager, will m
doubtedly, by reason of past exper
ence, be able to offer the student bod
a worthy paper next year, in man
respects progressive and with an in
proved competency that will win ft
'Jhe (mmccock additional prestige ar
favor.
During the past semester a numlx
of obstacles were encountered, but wei
overcome with the help of the men
hers of the present staff to whom muc
is due in praise and recognition. Tl:
beginning of the semester saw an ex
perimcnt in the publication of
Gamecock. The experiment proved
success in many respects and wa
made possible through the wonderft
cooperation of the various member
of the staff. It is hoped that this ex
periment will prove of some use i
the near future.
In a last word, the paper this se
mcster in many respects might hav
been better. The improvements wil
assuredly come with the next colleg
year.
