CAROLINA'S MOST PO0 BIHARI'S RE 1229 Hampton Street GET THAT B *THE C I * Tennis Equip *School Si *Cold )ciety Of Clvi il Banquet M University Given Pow Burned In C Panel To Bo Placed In University Library One of the most interesting relics given the University is a fragrent of a pew, burned in the old chapel fire Jan. 26. 1855, which was originally owned by the famous Dr. Francis Lieber, professor of history and po litical economy here from 1835 to 1856. Following his custom of placing mottoes on the walls of his cla:s room, he painted on it in Greek tle l favorite sayipg of Socr'ates which, translated by Dr. E. L. Green, means, "There is no excallence without great Labor". On the other side are carved ini tials and tames of students as well as the outline of an old literary so ciety key. The panel front the pew was given to the University in January by Doc tor Lieber's granddaughter, Mrs. Amelia Lieber Stearns of Providence, Rhode Island. Some time ago she asked Archibald Matterson of the same city, a cousin of Deatn Chase, whether or not the University would like to have the memento. The latter communicated with the former, who replied that the University would be I delighted to own it. It is to be displayed in the South Carolina library. Doctor Green, in his history of the University says of the chapel fire: "A fire broke out from a spark, it seemed. that had * caught in the blinds of the cupola. The wind was high, and in four hours the chapel and East Rutledge were in ruins, and West Rutledge was so damaged that it required rebuilding. The students were promptly on the ground and worked with the energy and enthu siam of youth, but to no purpose. The building was doomed". The rebuilding was completed in 1857. Cannon Looks Into Renting Textbooks Books Would Be Cheaper, Less Changes Necessary Investigation of the practicability of installing a textbook rental system in the University is being made by Prof. Furman Cannon at the request of the Faculty Committee on Edu cational Rehabilitation of Veterans of the War, President McKissick an noutceS. Under this plant studentts cottld ei her rent or buy textbooks. Tlhey coutld I be rented for a ucht lower price Lthan the purchase cost. Ii thte rentad system should be adloptedl, it would necessitate less frequent chtanges of textbooks in :ourses. Thtis State ntow has a hightly suc essful systemt of renting textbooks o public school pupils. ULAB RESTAURANT :STAU RANT JEROME BIMARI, Corohlne, '32 ITE TO EAT t.
