Just so you won't forget i too quickly we'll give a few high lights and comments. The majority of Carolina's bril liant student body had raised them selves above thoughts of April Fool therefore the edition "Chaste Chick en and the Foul Fowl" struck then as a complete surprise. Sono thought that at last tle Gamecocl had a little competition; others de. cided that a plague of some descrip tion had hefelled the Gamecocl staff. Ilicads were buried in the paper a! the students strolled leisurely tc cla's reading the advice of Dear Childs and notices issued by Cap tain Needham. Classes began and the hold still read the news openly the shy glanced otcasionally intc the backs of their notebooks where the edition was carefully hidden. Dean )epass finally resorted tc asking one of his journalism classes to please put aside a really good newspaper for a discussion aboul iust trivial newspapers-such as the N. Y. Sui and Chicago Tribune. A former Carolina co-ed visiting the campus for the day met Deat Childs and .iokiitgly asked her why all of this had come about and it she could resume her studies again at U. S. C.

Bradley sat be hind his flat top official looking desk t and regarded the reporter who for the lirst time in her two years at Carolina faced him in his unofficial capacity. "From Abbeville High School I came to the University of South Carolina where I received my A.B." Dr. 'Bradley began. "At various times I attended the University of Tennessee's 'Summer School of the South', the University of Marburg in Germany, and the University of Chicago. I majored in French and German and received my M.A. and Ph. D. here at Carolina." The reporter's pencil whipped across the page with saitsfaction as the interview progressed easily. Dr. Bradley had been one of the two in terpretors at the Armistice Com mission in Spa, Belgium in 1918. At the time he was a major in U. S. Army Intelligence. After the first complete council, the commission was broken into smaller factions, and Dean Bradley was put in charge of the repatriation of prisoners in German camps. "It took about two weeks to get all our men back into our own hands" lie told the reporter. In answer to another question the dean said, "Yes, I suppose there will be something of the sort held in connection with this war." The reporter asked what he thought of Spanish as a diplomatic language. "It's obvious that we have known too little of our South Amer ican neighbors. Knowing their lan guage will undoubtedly encourage better relations. However. Spanish will never replace French as an in ternational language. Besides that. although we have a deinnite business interest in Spanish, we have also a deep-rooted cultural and sentimen tal interest in French." To a ques tion about the present trend away from liberal education Dean Bsradley responded. "Our country has rallied to an epiergency w% h ich necessitates more rigid prac tical training. But let's not confuse 'triing' wi,th o d uai.ion . ' rainigo' for a 'profession' is learning how to make a living-bread and meat. 'F.ducation' is learning how to live. learning to understand yourself and others." "What about giving up our col lege careers to go into war work?" queried the reporter. Dean lradley tapped the desk with a foretiinger. ".\Iyv advyice to Icotlleg e if you're getting a nythIinig at all out of it, is stick with it.

"I prefer to think its only the effervescence of youth and don't find it condenning." Asked to make a comment about Germany today he responded, "We must prove to the Germans that physical, niaterial, and armed su premacy do not make wor:d su premacy. German youth have been educated to only one side of the picture. Reconstruction will not come in a day. The U. S. can not follow its old isolationist policy. We have become resigned to the fact that we must take part in world politics. If the roof leaks on your head, you have to go out and patch it no matter whose roof it is." Dean Bradley has been teaching at the t niversity for 3- years. In that time he has endeared himself to students and faculty alike. Graced with a dignity of manner command ing both respect and admiration, he is a lso 4 charac terized by hiis qu iick sense of humor and hi,; ability to at all times view a sitnation from every angle with unpreiuliced reasoning.

The committee is to investigate available space on the campus and to find out if the sororities are in favor of returning to their former * rooms in Sims.
