To A Few Transfers
Who Look At Carolina
In The Wrong Light
The Carolina student. body this year is
rather nnigne becau-e of the large ntinbert of
transfers brought here by thee Navy V-12

C'ollege, to ment ion but a few. Carolina is not
the eollege of their choice. aatl therefore it
wyoncl not he fatir to expect the'e mnen to coun
Iletely transfer their ltvatv to their fo,ter
