Norw$~4 Writes, Wo.z Book Prof. Joseph Norwood of th* eng lish Department .has recently com pleted an English workbook which is being 'used'by freshmen at the-Uni. versity for the first time this year. Titled "Word Analytic Work Book," the volume consists of a number of tests and exercises designed to assist the student in word acquisition. ' "In general, freshmen at the Uni versity are hampered in their work, especially in their reading, by 'lack of knowledge of. the meaning of many words," said Prof. Norwood. "The book gives a systematic apprdach to. words, teaching them by their context in phrases rather than merely as words by themselves." The pages of -the book are perfbr ated so that they may be torn out and coirected by the professor. Pro fessor Norwood said that the book is being sold at present only at the Uni versity, but he hopes to circulate it among other colleges in the near fu ture. The workbook is on sale at the University Bookstore, and is being used in conjunction with the regular freshman Efiglish composition courses, the text for which is by Dr. Reed Smith of the University. At the beginning of the text is a test which Mr. Norwood has worked but to determine the extent of the stu (lent'e voqabulary. Mr. Norwood began work on the book last February, and completed it in July. It is published by Edwards Brothers' Publishing Company of Ann Arbor, Michigan. The author has started work on another similar work book which will be suitable for use in high schools, b\Ut he was unable to make any definite announcement as to when it will be completed. I Professor Norwood began his teach ing career at the University in the fall of 1924. After his graduation here in-1920, he attended Harvard for a year, and was appointed a Rhodeso scholar to Oxford, where he studied from 1921 to 1924.

"We, the undersigned, recognizing our duties and responsibilities as students, and desiring to maintain an honorable reputation for the University, do willingly sign and earnestly abide by the following declaration, provided that: (1) the entire faculty guarantee us their complete cooperation, (2) a council composed of three professors select ed by the faculty and six students selected by the signers of this decla ration be established, this council to have complete control and final jurisdiction in all cases arising, and judging each case on its own merits, (3) the names of all .the signers be duly published in The Gamecock (4) the ledger, incorporating the oath be kept in. some convenient place so tpat anyone so desiring may sign this declaration at any time, (5) this plan is to go into effect after having been signed by not fewer thari 100 students. Students who have signed the code this year are: and Whitfield Cheatham and "Red" Bennett gave selections on the harmon ica and accordian respectively. Re feshments were served, Studenf to Poll (Continued from page one) activity. It is planned that it shall have a large living room, a reading roocn with a good selection of news papers and magazines, a game room, an office for various possessions, room for meetings of various groups. Rest rooms for both men and wom en, as well as a kitchen, have been provided. It is also planned eventually to move the canteen, the post offiace, the book store, and the telephone ex change to the spacious basement of the building which has several in side and outside entrances. Both the amdinistration and the Board of Trusteee are of the opinion that the student body should have a strong voice in the control,and man agement of the Union. Accordingly, upon the recommendation of Ifresi dent McKissick, the Board has adopt ed a resolution establishming a board of directors to manage and control the Union. This board will consist of two members of the faculty, appointed by the president of the University; one alumna, appointed by the presi dent of the Alumnae Association; one alumnus, appointed by the presi dent of the Alumni Association; and four students, no two of whom cai belong to the same class and at least one of whom must be a woman, tc be elected by the whole student body. Under the resolution of the Board of Trustees, both -that body and the president have the power to vetc any action of the board of directors of the Union, but it is believed that this power would rerely, if ever, be used. Prof.. Robert L. Sumwalt of the School o fEngineering and Instructor William S. Woods of the Department of Modern Languages have beer chosen to represent the faculty or the board. President Ashley C Tobias, Jr., of the Alumni Associa tion has selected Richard E. Carwile well-known Columbia lawyer, tc represent that organization, and Mrs C. Oliver Brown, president of the Alumnae Association has named Mrs. Helen Kohn Hennig, promin ent Columbia, to represent thai group. President McKissick .Ceitly said: "What I am most concerned about in connection with the new Studeni Union is that every student shal] feel that it is for his use and pleasure It isfor this reason that I hope thai it will be felt that the student dir ectors chosen are representatives of all students, rather than of any par ticular group or organization. "'The Student Union Board wit: be called on to decide such impor tant matters as allocation of spacc for various uses, and as to how anc by whom the Union shall be active and managed." -U. S. C. In the days of Czarist Russia there were only 90,000 high school anc college students in the entire country Today there are 107,000 in Moscow alone.

WHAT'S IN A NAME He registered as "Leonislaus Jose phius Francisko Anthonio Krotos zynski", and added "187, guard, of Erie, Pa." However, he says that he gets along better socially when he in troduces himself as "Leo Kroto". He should become South Caro lina's first all-American guard, if there's anything in a name.
