Night-watchmen, butchers, bakers, barbers, laborers and chauffeurs along with bankers, jewelers, economists, journalists and artists are included in the parent-occupation list given by students. One Politician If all the parents were gathered together in a modern cooperative community, they would have no trouble maintaining a hign social and economic level, so diversified are their vocations. Even governmental affairs might be well taken care of since one student lists his father's business as, merely and frankly. "a politician". Included in the assortment are rail way men, salesmen, federal employees, lawyers, teachers, physicians and sur geons, ministerc, state employees. general businessmen, textile employees, accountants and auditors, contractors, bookkeepers, oil company employees.

"Undecided" led the list of answers with 290 votes while lawyers and teachers stood next in order with 249 andl 248 respectively. Accountancy and general business attract 206 of the students and, while only one expresses a desire to become a nurse, 117 want to be physicjans and surgeons. Engineers Engineering comes in for its share of the graduates with 77 wanting to be evil engineers, 43 electrical engineers, and 12 chemical engineers.

He bro::ght out the need for integra tion of all studies and particularly th social sciences. Faculties should g< away from the petty idea that m department and courses are all i portant and aid the student in gel ting a well-rounded approach to a matters. .He explained that specialization ha its all-important place but that no on could lay claim to a well-rounded edt cation who had not followed a broa curriculum. He emphasized th; every student regardless of his choic of vocation would be better fitted t live having had some sociology. Tha we need to understand the world abot us better was one of the salient poini in his address. Doctor Donaldson also said the though grades should not be stresse so much that the student forgets t learn anything, scholarship should l: striven for. That scholarship is a attainment and a distinct honor is t be taken seriously.

N JOSEPH C. S FLORENC --In s Survey 1 Conditions rawford Likes Turtle_Soup e p t i e Authority spounds On Varieties Of Turtles Commonly Found In South Oar. olina And Nearby Regions "The yellow belly turtle, commonly illed the 'cooter', and,. properly a trapin, as it is an edible fresh water niinal, abounds in South Carolina," tys J. A. Crawford, director of phy cal education for men at the Uni rsity. "Its flesh is so delicious that is more popular than the diamond ack turtle which at one time sold >r as high as $60 a dozen." Crawford Has Reputation Mr. Crawford, who has gained quite reputation as an authority on reptiles, as recently asked by a prominent iologist if he had ever observed the >mmon wood turtle in South Caro "I am under the impression that iese turtles use this state as a remote abitate and believe that I found one Greenville county about three years ;o," he said "I made only a casual servation and am not positive in entification, although I am reason >ly sure that they inhabit South Caro na, as it is a southeastern animal." Spotted Terrapins Replying to another biologist who ked whether he had ever found ottcd terrapins in this state, Mr. rawford said: "I have found four. One at Bethune, C.; a second specimen in Edisto vamp, near Orangeburg; a third at orth, S. C.; and a fourth on the old' Tinnsboro road, north of Columbia." Asked about the abundance of the inted terrapin, Mr. Crawford said: ['hese terrapins are abundant in cer in localities, but being shy they are ought to be scarce." Snapping Turtles "The most diabolical turtle that we ive in .South Carolina is the common lapping turtle. This species is as cious as he is ugly. But the soup ade from him is excellent," said Mr. rawford. "The snapping turtle weighs as much 45 or 50 pounds in South Carolina, even larger farther south. Of urse his first cousin, the Florida iapper which seldom reaches this ate grows to 120 pounds, and is also vicious animal."
