Never having journeyed more than 50 miles from his home near Platts burg, Mo. until a week ago, the young man arrived in New York as Cantor's guest to receive the award. On being summoned to the office of Benny Holzman, Cantor's Busi ness manager and confronted with "his" essay, he readily admitted that the article had come from the De cember issue of "Peace Digest" and had been written by Dr. Frank King don, president of the University of Newark. Franklin told such a simple, straight forward story that the majority of the pressmen believed him innocent. He stated that he had not told anyone where the essay came from-not even his mother or teacher. When asked whether he knew what it was to plagiarized, the bewildered boy shook his head. Cantor announced that the money would probably be awarded to the second-best entry. Legal advice will be sought before the matter will be decided.

Upon the recommendations of the faculty, alumni, and other citizens, it was also ruled that "any obscene or objectionable matter in any stu dent publication at the University would call for innmediate suspension or expulsion for all responsible par ties." A committee to further investigate the matter was appointed by I'resi dent Baker. The members of the staff have not been called to appear before the committee as was falsely rumored. "Under no form will the Yellow Sheet or April Fool edition appear again," said Registrar John A. Chase, "nor will objectionable matter be per mitted in The Gamecock." It was the general conscence of opinion among the faculty that this particular issue did the University more damage than it (lid good and hat it was bad publicity for the school. For this same reason the Carolinian, the monthly publication, was stopped. "U Home ade Candies.
