Caolin Should Help lCaoliian When three University students announced last yea that they were going to try to -revive the Carolinia and bring back to the campus a literary magazine whic] would fill a long felt need, most of the others felt 'tha they were undertaking an impossible task. Yet today the Carolinian is standing on its own feei and paying its own way in addition to fulfilliiig most o: the hopes of its founders. Today the staff has been in creased; the magazine has been made larger, and th4 circulation has grown. It seems likely that the magazine will continue to grov and maintain its financial stability, but it is also onl fair that aid should be given it from the student activi ties fee since it is a student enterprise and since it ha, made a place for itself in the students' affairs. It would not be advisable to increase the fee again because it is high enough now to' take care of all th4 student expenses. What would be necessary is a general re-allocation o: the fee, giving this organization a share in its collec tions. Mention of the possibility of readjustment would pre cipitate a scramble of organization presidents, vice-pres idents, committee chairmen, who would immediately be siege those in control of the fund with requests for largei appropriations in the future. Obviously, this would have to be endured, and adjust ments would have to be made in the way thought best b the committee. This would make it necessary for some one to do a great deal of investigating and questioning but, if a satisfactory end could be reached, it would bi worthwhile. There may be others besides the Carolinian who are re ceiving too little; there may be some who are -receivinj toMu1ch. More Aid To Physical Ed During the past few years, the University has mad< progress in many fields, but one place where they hav not advanced as they should have is in the physica education department. - This is chiefly because the de partment is undermanned and underfinanced. Few people realize that while other departments hav from two to five men serving relatively small group. the work of educating University students physically i left in the hands of only two men, and these two mei serve the largest number of students of any departmen at Carolina. Consequently, the work that could be done with fou or five men has to be left, or carried on with limited mai power and limited successful results. Nothing is so important to a man as the state of hi physical health, because without this, little could b achieved in other lines. Yet to carry on the work of educating Carolina stu * dents in how to play and take care of their bodies, ther is appropriated only a small amount of money each yeai Other schools in this state carry oen extensive pro * grams of physical education, with a number of mei skilled in special fields aiding students interested in on particular activity. In many, this is on~e of the mos important departments in the school. It can take its rightful place at Carolina if. more mone; * would be given to them every year so that more me> could be employed to teach courses adequately. Those who are now in charge have accomplished un believable results with the resources they have at hand * they could accomplish much more if they received a much money as they deserve to carry on their work. A Strange Combination A distinctly unusual sight greeted attendants at th Furman game last week when hundreds of Clemson ca dets forgot their prejudices for a while and joined th Carolina cheering section in yelling for the Gamecock: And when the public announcer had to change hi first report and tell spectators that Clemson was lead ing Kentucky instead of trailing them three touchdown: the feeling of elation shown by the cadets was mir rored almost as intensely by the Carolina students. Remembering some of the things that have happene< between Carolina and Clemson, it might be unthinkabl that they should merge for once and tanite their effort to bring the winning score to the Garnet and Black. But for once, as' the Associated Press report puts ii "Gamecock and Tiger stood side by sider and hurled de fance at all corners." Even discounting the fact that some of.the cadet cheer lng was merely wanting to break the jinx which Fur man has been holding for some time over both Carolin and Cleineon,. this is indicative that our bitter hatre for each other is being replaced 1dowly by more whok some' tivalry. Perhap jt was partly wanting Furman to be beater Jg ny Mctivity whidh brings these two scliools togethe not be discounted.

In answering the question, Freshmen Barr, Olson, and Hempley seem to be under some misconception. K. S. K., in trying to foster the wearing of freshmIen caps, has not threat ened the first year men with any "compulsory measure." If we were out for compulsion we would have appeared at the meet ing armed with broom sticks, palmettos, and coat-hangers. It is just this conception of upper classman-freshman relations that we are trying to get away from. If we had planned a hazing cam paign, we would not have come out with the statement that ex cessive hazing should be report ed to us. Instead of threatening the freshmen boys we requested them to pledge themselves to wear their caps for the remainder of the session up to the spring holidays. It is noteworthy that all but one of the boys present signed this pledge without any means of compulsion being brought to bear. To the boys who co-operated with us with such fine spirit Tuesday afternoon we wish to express our sincere apprecia tion. And we reserve the right to brand as undesirable, by any legal means which we see fit, those super-sophisticated, high toned non-conformists of the freshman class who have too much self-pride and 'dignity to profit by a privilege that is theirs alone:-that of wearing at all, times Carolina's colo-s. Sincerely, ' Charles Lee. --.S. C.

NIw YORK, N. Y, oe AMON.M8 - SAM ftAaco PAUL, Bl Talk like to have my say on this mAt" ter. I am a signer of the Hon. or Code and a faithful support er of it, and I feel it Is my duty to bring up the following point. The Hopor Council a com posed of some members. of the group of students who are sign ers of the Code, elected. each year by the whole group of signers, p and some members of the faculty of the University. As I see it, the student members of the Council are given the duty of hearing cases which pertain to violations of the Code. I do not t know of any part of the 'Code which gives the right of expan- t< sion of the .Qode itself to the Council. The' students at Caro- g lina who sign and support the Code have heretofore always dis- n cussed and voted on all ex'pan sions. Why should the Coun- h cil step in and decide to say that false excuses are violations of n the Honor Code? They have NO right to this, and I protest. Ii I signed the Honor Code with the expressed understanding that there was a definite range to the Code. If this range can be wid ened without my having a word in it, then it is time to consider M the whole thing from a differ ent angle. I am sure that many other students feel about this, h just as I do. d It is, nevertheless, time that s8 something be done about false excuses-but I do not believe A that the Honor Council has the right to take the responsibility they have taken concerning this. The Honor Code is, I 'consider, still an "unestablished" thing as far as the University students are concerned. The number of signers is very small when we take into consideration the total number of students. Until we have given the present system a more firm foundation, and have received 'more definite backing from the students, I say let's not enilarge on he plaia, itut isAg8 nize the signers we do have.

Echoes From The Press (Editor's note: this editorial Is re rinted' from the Kentuoky Kernel be iuse of its Interest. it does not in iy way volos the opinion of the Game-. mok.) From grade school to high :hool and through college a stu ent's. abilities are judged by 'achers or, professors who daily cord in some little book the { Lark of A, B, C, D, E. Can. this five-point syetemn of '( adinig be considered reliable ithe part of the instructor? o we as students tend to work' r desired high marks, rather4 an study on our own initiative? The system 'of two .marks, Pass' and "Fail", hits been In. 4 oduced recentlyt into several ( >llegiate institutions. Outstande, .g example of the -success of, 'is plan has been the University . Chicago, where President Rob t Huijtchins said that such a ethod has a two-fold purpose: L) to adapt the educational pro s5s to the student. (2) An at mpt to alter student psychol-, ry. At Chicago the responsi'' lity for, an education rests withV e students. At the University of Arkansas., R. Gerberich conducted-in in-~ ~stigation among a randong cked group of junior and senl* r students to determine their' titude toward examination .an4 arking practices. Three hu*nt red questionnaires were sett ut. The survey, resulted in the scovery that .over half of t udents preferred the two-mar estem. If the ellmitiatibn of the 0t cint grading p lan has prove0 vorable at other' colleges ant niversities, should it not asible to experiment with t lea on this campes?
