iVicKissi Davis, Engiih Ia Committe A committee on University Sta been appointed by President McKi: It consists of Prof. H. C. Davis, c George McCutchen, R. W. Morrisc The president has asked this committee: (1) To recommend continuation. addition to, elimination or consol' dation of existing committees; (2) To recommend the personnel of committees, selecting the faculty members best fitted by training, ex perience and interest to serve, and also to recommend suitable chair men; (3) To place every member of the faculty on at least one committer. As far as is known, this is the first time such a committee has been established in t'e I.nmiveritv. The president plans hereafter to appoint only special committees when requested to do so or when it seems desirable to do so. High praise of the loyalty of the University faculty was expressed by President McKissick in a recent let ter to the heads of departments and deans of schools in which he said: "Let me express my deep and en during appreciation, which I hope you will convey to members of your school or department, for the ex cellent service rendered by the fac ulty and staff of the University to both State and nation during an extraordinarily hot. uncertain. and most trying summer. All of you have been summoned to sacrifice personal convenience, pleasure, and even money for real public service. The University is grateful for it. Both you and the institution are rightfully proud of the service ren dered." GAMECOCK (CONTINUED PROM PAGE t) spread of this habit to the women, but called on the Daughters of Carolina to abstain as long as possible. Merely because a few women in Paris had taken it up, why should they? "Smok ing in polite circles in the South is not yt generally established as proper for women. Only in such resorts where the barbarians (sic) from north of the Mason Dixon line gather is the custom recognized as being at all becoming to ladies." But evidently Carolina thrived on jazz, cokes and the "ancient game of African cubes. or Galloping Domi noes." which swept the campus, for by 1930 the enrollment had reached a new high, Mrs. Moon had estahli.he(d her post office, the University had a Phi Beta Kappa Chapter, and the football team was getting in the habit of beating Clemson. Carnegie Music Set Repaired The Carnegie Music Set, out of fix for the past wcek. has been repaired. The Music Set is on the second floor of Flinn Hall. Hours at which the music room is open is as fol lows: Monday, Tuesday, Wed nesday, and Thursday after noons from 4-6, 7:30-10; and Sunday from 2-5. The room is closed on Saturday. Miss Betty Fishburne, in charge of the set, urges all ci vilian and V-12 students to visit the music room. There they may read, copy term papers and other such tedious tasks to the tune of anything that suits their fancy. The music set, long an attrac tion of the library, was moved to its new quarters in Flinn Hall at the beginning of this semester. The change was necessitated by the library's taking over the room formerly occupied by the music set. Originally the music set was a part of the music department for the students of that depart ment. It was opened to the student body last year. BOOKS :.: OFFICE THE R. L. 1440 Main Street * ANY THING NEEDI ck Appo ;h Professor, e Chairman nding Faculty Committees has just sick. hairman, Dean F. W.

This was a murder trial, the first in several years. The facts for the case were taken from an actual case which occurred in Greenwood County a few months ago. I n the original case, the first trial resulted in a mistrial, but no such misfortune overtook it here on the campus. In spite of the handicap of an al most completely overwhelming ar rav of facts avainct them, D'4"n Attorneys M. T. Pitts and Arthur H. Vilder, were successful in ob taining a verdict of voluntary nman slaughter. In the word of , .. ~ . the ii t ill, "'We had two strikes against us from the start, because our client was charged with murdering his wife, but we were able to bat him out with the third strike." This case marked an interesting highlight in judicial history, for, due entirely to the manpower short age, two women were allowed on the jury, though they had to be treated as if they were men. Never before in the history of the State of South Carolina, have women been able to serve on a jury. It is to be noted that they, Misses Lucy B. Fair and Jean Sims, did an ad mirable job. Have You? .. Does the amount of money our government needs to run this war mean anything to you? We speak in terms of millions and billions so glibly these days and yet very few of us have any idea just how much the terms mean. Just as one way of realizing the incomprehensible ness of them, take a listen to the human heart. Its an amaz ing little machine. Day in and day out for all the years of your life it beats approximately 72 times a second or 17,280 a day. If you live to be a hundred years old the total will be six hundred and thirty million, seven hundred and twenty thousand. Quite a few beats... and yet, if each one represented one dollar, you would not have even one twentieth of the amount we need to raise this month to keep 'em flying. Bet ter buy another bond.

These positions, no longer open, were filled by students graduating from other schools. The calculations are as follows: Schools No. called for Elementary (towns and cities) 39 Elementary (rural) ..................... 35 High Schools: Science and Mathematics . 40 Languages and History ...... 36 Physical Education ................ 15 Commerce ................................ 17 Librarians ................................. 13 M iscellaneous ........................... 25 The School of Education office publishes the above calculation to show students the subjects and grades most in need of teachers. Dick Deberry acted as the defend ant, who supposedly shot and killed his wife while he was in a drunken rage. The trial went well, with excel lent cross-examinations on both sides. It is to be said that both sides showed a remarkable degree of preparation, but especially is this true of the examination of Miss Sarah Graydon, by assistant solici tor Lanford. Sargeant Carlson of the Bureau of identification of the South Caro lina State highway department, pre sented the etxpert testimony for the State. Carlson is a firearms and ballistics expert. It was during his testimony that the defense made its most favorable impression. The ex pert was examined by both the de fense attorneys. Mr. Wilder in his cross examination, after Mr. Pitts h:(d paved the way, was able to shake the faith of the members of the jory in bullet comparisons as an infallible method of identification of weapons. The conclusion of the trial was marked by the brilliant speeches of the attorneys, the most noteworthy of which were the arguments for the State, by Mr. James Grist, whose arguments brought tears, even into the eyes of the opposition. The other participants of the trial were: Witnesses. for the State: Norman WVest. Felix Finlay, George Gregory, and Sargeant Carl son.
