Men and women of, Carolino, graduate and non-graduates are requested to senc alumni news and their changing addresse to the Alumni Office, University Campus Columbia, South Carolina YOUR ALUMNI PI To the Ahumnae and Alumni of the University of South Carolina: It is with much trepidation that I have entered upon the discharge of the duties of the President of your Association for the current Alumni Association year. These are difficult and trying times and one would be heedless indeed, even in normal times, to step without alarm into the shoes of the eminent and extraordinarily able men who have in recent years served as President of the Association. In fact, it is only with the knowledge that the work of the Association will be in tegrated and directed by our Exec utive - Secretary-one of the best alumni secretaries in the nation and that I shall have the active, con stant and unstinted support of the whole body of the alumni that I have been able to summon the cour age to enter upon the execution of my task. As vice-president of the Associa tion for the Fourth Judicial Circuit, I was familiar with the activities of the Association during the past year and in passing I wish to pay a deserved tribute to Claude Mc Millan, the retiring President, and Ralph Lewis, the Executive Secre tary, the Alumni Council and the rank and file of the alumni for the exceptionally fine work which was accomplished last year. These activities will be set forth in detail in the annual reports of the Executive Secretary and the President and I hope that the re pcrt. can h publiahcd in full ial "On the Alumni Front" so that the whole body of the alumni will be fully informed as to the great work whih has bei done iad is lleing done by the Association, its aims and objects and the acute and im perative necessity for the loyal and wholehearted cooperation and sup port of the whole alumni body to accomplish the objects and pur poses of the Association. Great progress has been made in the compiling of the alumni records. 'we records system now contains about sixty thousand (60,000) cards. The addresses of about nine thou sand (9,000) of the alumni have been proved. The permanent master card file is yet to be constructed. This work should be continued and com pleted as expeditiousiy as possible. Progress has be1 made in the organization of local alumni clubs but the progress of the work has been impedled by war conditions and the scattering of the alumni by the impact of war. It is my settled conviction that this is the most im portant imlmedliate task of the Asso ciation. These local associations or clubs are the only solid and lasting foundation upon wvhich the Associa tion can be erected as a permanent edifice. - Under the existing circum stances this work must be done by the oldler alumni who have not been dispersed by the impact of the wvar. The formation of local clubs must be prosecuted with all the vigor and resources at our comlmandl. Great progress has been made in the distribution of alumni publica tions. Sixty- five thousand (65,000) copies of the campus newspaper were .nailed last year to some eight thousanid fiv'e hundred (8,500) of the alumni. Twenty-five thousand (2:,000) copies of the newspaper were sent free of charge to the Car olina mten and women in the armed services of the Unitedl States in every part of the worldl. TIwo thou sand five hundred (2,500) copies of the Pictorial Bulletin were sent to Master Sgt. Clinton B.

Agnes Louise Roach, '43A, is a .-.tmdE tESIDENT SPEAKS members of the Association and lo cated non-members in the armed services. This is an exceedingly im portant and patriotic contribution to the national var effort and one of the finest things the Association has ever done for its members. The Executive Secretary has recelvea thousands of letters of appreciation from every nook and corner of the earth. This work must be con tinued and expanded to serve all Carolina men in the ever increasing armed services. The membership attained by the Association during the past year reached an all time high, but it-is not enough-the goal with respect to membership in the Association cannot be less than all of the former students. We may not be able to attain the goal, but we can closely approach it. ''his is fundamentally the duty and task of the rank and file of the alumni. May I earnestly beseech every Carolina man and woman who reads this message to immediately send in his or her As sociation dues. Then persuade at least one more Carolina son or daughter to do likewise. The As sociation needs the personal and financial support of every Carolina man and woman to fulfill its duty to the University. The standards, traditions and characteristics of the faculty of the University must he preserved and continued. We should stand ready always to work with the University authorities to that end. At all times and especially during the present emergency, we must use ,ur utmost endeavor to advise young mnic and young women of the great educational and cultural ad vantages and opportunities available to them at the University. Special efforts should be made to obtain young men and young women who have shown particular promise in their high school work. This must be the task of the whole body of the alumni, but it is miy hope and ex pectation that a plan will be per fected before the end of the present year to contact and apprize all high school graduates in the State of the advantages available to them at the University. We must keep constantly in mind the necessity of completing the building prograi of the University as early as possible and to provide it with the equipment and facilities rdquired to keep it on a par with other American State Universities. It is time no0w to establish in the University a modlern and adequately equip)ped atnd financed program of research. Our State cannot afford to neglect this any longer. WVe should make plans to estab lish a home for the alumni on the campus. TIhis should be the heart as well as the brain center of the Assoc ia tion. The Association is at a crisis in its life. It is about to leave ado lescence andl assume the full stature of young manhoodl. The Associa tion has never been adequately financed. Tihe multiplying and ex panding activities constantly in crease the financial strain. If the Association is to fulfill its ob)liga tions andl take its proper place in the life of the University, its finani cial problems must be settled and p)laced on a firm andl permanent basis. I hope andi expect that progress to this end can be acecom-. p)lishedl during the present year. Faithfully yours, President, Hlospital, Charlotte, N. C.
