Entirely new equipment for the parriers, including both saber and epee, never before used by the Game cocks, is ready for use, J. A. Craw ford, Director of Physical Educa tion at Carolina, promised. Only one man from last year's squad was lost through graduation and the strong 1939 freshman outfit is ready for duty this season which should not worry Coach Reese too much. Campus Track Teams To Train For Meet Intramural Event Earlier This Year Track teams from fraternities and tenements will start training within approximately two weeks in prepara tion for the annual intramural track and field tournament which will be run off this year some time before Christmas, J. A. Crawford, tourna ment head, said today. A handsome trophy to be given the winning team is already in Craw ford's office along with medals which will be awarded individual winners.

University NYA Is Versatile In Work Many and variedl are the positions held by the J00 Carolina students in the University of South Carolina Division of the National Youth Ad m inistra ti oni. Placed in the dlifferent dlepart ments of the University-English, chemistry, commerce, gym and personnQl bureau--the library, cafe teria, canteen, p)ressing club, Y. M. C. A, and Newvs service, these stu dents do a multitude of tasks. Some of the N. Y. A. students are em ployed to read to the blind attend ing the University. On the N. Y.

English Department Swamped With Work "Oh, heck, there's another onel" This ejaculation came from Dr. Havilah Babcock as he picked up a theme paper. The English department is re quiring more written work than ever this year, and the professors are up to their ears in work, read ing and correcting papers. Many glaring mistakes are evi dent in the students' work, but the professors still hope for the best in the days to come. With so much written material on hand, the English department doesn't have much time for play. If the students think they have a hard job writing, pity the poor teachers, who have to read 50 tc 100 papers a day, although some get a great deal of pleasure from the papers. The idea of having so many themes is to emphasize competence in the use of written and spoken English. One of the primary fac tors in modern life is the ability tc express onesself in writing. Y. M. C. A. Sponsors Service Club The Carolina Christian Service Club, sponsored by the Y. M. C. A. and the Y. WV. C. A., is doing a good job in promoting good will for the University throughout South Carolina. The Club has (lone wonderful work in several institutions, includ ing the Alms House, Girls Indus trial School, Confederate Home, State Park, and the Penitentiary. In all these places the club has met with enthusiastic support from the officials and the inmates. Besides being a source of pleasure and experience to those interested in this field of work, the Service Club provides the opportunity for Christians to follow the example of Jesus in ministering to the needs of less fortunate persons. Dr. Wardlaw Turns Over Duties To Two Others Dr. Orin .F. Crow, Dean of the School of Education at the Univer sity of South Carolina, announced to (lay that courses formerly taught by Dr. Patterson Wardlaw, recently re tired from active faculty duty, would be distributed as follows: The Development of Personality, J.
