MAGAZINE NEARLY SCOOPED In 1844, the University of North Carolina* published a literary maga zine claiming to be the first college ever to publish this type of periodi cal. However, they were almost scooped by the University of South Carolina. Seven years earlier, two literary societies at the University decided to publish a magazine which was to be devoted entirely to litera ture. They appointed a committee to find out the cost. After the report of the committee was given they elected two editors, Johnson and Manning, and instructed them to bring out the publication. Im meriately after this, Professor Nott, who sponsored the movement, was drowned at sea and interest in a literary magazine died. Anyhow, we thought of it first. -U. S.

Crow Talks On Constitution Says Formerly Criticized Men in Public Office Now Hailed As Greatest Men 'The Emancipation Proclamation that was fostered by I.icoln was out side the constitution; the Louisiana Purchase, made by .1efferson and- Mun roe was definitely outside the consti tution; and yet, today, they are ton silere(l to be some of the finest ex amples of A.merican statesmanship," says )r. Orin F. Crow, head of the school of education of the University. So many of the men that have held public offices and have been severely critized at the time for offenses against the constitution are now hailed as the United States greatest men," he continues. "When the Constitution was to be ratified," Dr. Crow pointed out, "there was a good deal of dissension among the delegates. The Pennsylvania dele gation refused to ratify this document and when the time for the meeting came, they had all locked themselves up in their hotel rooms. The consti tution could not be ratified without them! So the other delegates vent to the hotel, .broke into the rooms, took them to the hall and held them in their chairs to make a quorum and thus the constitution of America was ratified." -Secretarial School '(Continued from page one) commerce. The course of study may be completed in two years' time. After passing the required courses, the secretarial student is given a Certificate in Secretarial Science from the school of commerce. In speaking of the new courses Dean Olson said: "It is our aim to make this two-year Secretarial Course a complete preparation for secretarial and other positions in a modern office, To this end we have provided practically every type of bookkeeping, calculating and dupli cating machine in order that our students may be familiar with pres ent day office procedure when they finish the course. Instruction is based on a background of actual business experience and a thorough knowledge of what is essential in the business office of today." --U, s. C. don and New York stage.

M. Derrick de clared this week.

"What the University needs most from our alumni and alumnae is not money, but continuous aggressive interest and support in their own communities and particularly in our legislative program," the President added. In concluding his remarks Presi dent McKissick referred to the re cent tragedy in whi~ch three students were killed 'and said that, after in vestigation, he believed that they were in no way at fault in the dis aster and that he was proud to re port that their condition and con duct at that time were worthy of the finest traditions and ideals of their alma mater. Quoting a sentence from one of Jerry Pate's last letters home, "I love (not like, but love!!) it up here," the University head de clared that such affection and loyal ty as were expressed by this fresh man should animate all alumni and alumnae of the University and stir them to the greatest possible activity for the upbuilding of their alma mater.
