When "Number please" is heard tover the University of South Caro ia lina telephone exchange, one hard d ly realizes what an important role1 it the switchboard plays in the cam pus life. Five thousand eight hun .. dred' twenty-one telephone calls in etwo days are not considered to be ry above the average. Of all the pub as lic bureau exchanges in Columbia,1 al the University has the busiest. ar From early in the morning until a- midnight the operator accomnmo dates the student body, University m officials, and faculty members. se There are 66 phone connections cf on the campus and 8 outside lines. af The switchboard has 15 pairs of of plugs. When "sorry but there's -no outsid'e line" is the operator's m response, it does not mean that to just the outside lines are busy. so Most of the calls are business calls. er Besides working the switch board the operator accepts tele rit grams and special deliveries for a- the boys who live on the campus. ~From September 23 to October 23, l493 teleprams and specials were re r- ceived and the persons notified. y-. Mrs. Dugan, who has been ;- working at the University ex [l. change for the past ten years, is pleased with the new location in the Student Union Building. In connection with her work Mrs. s Dugan said, "The students and people connected with the Univer sity have been helpful in their co !y operation with the exchange. It V helps a great deal in a day's work to hear more patient polite voices than gruff hasty requests. Much credit goes to the students for Imaking the telephone exchange as1 "~ useful as it is." " There are four boys paid by the y University and same N. Y. A. stu 'dents who assist Mrs. Dugan.

Walsh Tests Rookie Cops Physical reaction tests were re eently given to 18 rookie South Carolina Highway Department pa trolmen by Dr. Kershaw Walsh of the University of South Carolina psychology d'epartment. "The tests were made," Dr. Walsh said, "to determine the in rividual reaction to certain stimu Ii." - The rookies were subject to five such tests: (1) glare recovery, (2) rapidity of reaction, (3) coordina tion, (4) steadiness, (5) ability to resist being startled. Comparing the results of the tests, Dr. Walsh said "the average rnark of the rookies was consider ably above the average mark of the :ollege student." The reaction time test was very ~xgeting and' by this means re realed the probable reaction time inder real conditions. Dr. Walsh ;tated that the test was so accu -ate that even differences in reac :ion could be noted in members of i football team playing different yositions. "The backfield men," Dr. Walsh stated, "show a quicker -eaction time than the linemen, rnd the linemen show a quicker eaction time than the center." -U. 5. 0.

Peace Move Held Friday Friday, November 11, 1938, twenty years after the signing of the peace treaty which ended the world war, will be marked by a mass peace demonstration by stu dents and faculty members of the University. This meeting, which is to take place in front of the World War Memorial, will take the place of the regular chapel meeting at 11:20 a. m.

This new series of Armistice day programs are being inaugurated by Dave Baker, and' it is hoped that the entire student 'body will par ticipate in making this worthwhile movement a success. Governor-elect Burnet R. May bank, "a progressive business man capable of leading the state to un precedented prosperity" in the words of J. Rion McKissick, pres ident of the University of South Carolina. addressed the student body of the University at the last chapel in the Field house.

"To you students of the Univer sity," he declared, "I say that the assets to the state of its Univer sity is not its $4,000,000 plant, but in you and the faculty." President McKissick introduced Mr. Maybank and extended him the good wishes of the University for a successful governorship. Mrs. Maybank was introduced following the talk by Mr. May bank. On behalf of the student body, she was presented a corsage by Miss Rannah Heyward. Coach Rex Enright, his staff, freshman coach Ted Petoskey, and freshman and varsity footbalt players were all recognized by President McKissick, and the stu dents gave Enright a rising vote of confidence.
