The idea of saying a thing like A PLACE TO EAT In the past several issues of THE GAME COCK you have heard gripes aired about the eating facilities at the University. Odds are you are likely to find (discoLUrses on the same subject and from the same viewpoint on one or more of the eight pages of this issue. We are not setting up defenses for this situation, which is a sorry one to say the least. However, the question of whether stu dents are taking full advantage of the facil ities now offered has recently arisen. Since the Athletic Dopartment has recent ly set up a training table at a nearby eating shop for football players, the situation has been relieved to the extent of the number of players who had been utilizing campus fa cilities prior to this time, as well as those students who used to eat on the campus to be sitting across the table from the star half back. The University HIigh Cafeteria rep)orts that it is able to feed many more students at each meal than it is doing now. The food has been of excep)tionally high quiality while the football team was eating there: we hope it will continue its high quality. It is pre paredl under' the guidance of Virginia Davis, a graduate dietician. Meal-books are not re quired, as each meal is paid for in cash; and the price is extremely reasonab)le. Then too, this cafeteria employs abotut 15 USC students, who have recently' been in formed that if business dlid not p)ick up.) t hey would b)e out of a job. Let's first remedy otur own ills-here is an Opportunity to keep fellowv students em.. ployed, and get good food1 at a reasonable price at a clean cafeteria withbin a few mUin.. ute's walking dlistance from any of' the dor mitories. The University High ('afeteria serves three meals a day, with the except ion of evening meals on Sat urdays and Sundays. G-HORGEI CE:ILUST1A. PITCH IN, STUDENTS! THE GAMECOCK advertised laMt week that all who are interested in estab)lishing a cam pus radlio station at the University contact the radio committee through Box 80. The radlio committee has been working on this project several wveeks. Now, it is neces sary for the entir'e studlent body to' "pitch In" and make it a success, for in order to make so big an undertaking as a radlio sta tion a tangible project, it must have the sup port of the entire camptus. There is mtuch to be (lone. THlE GAMECOCK hopes the entire student body will show its Interest and support WUTSC. - Member 1ssociaed Colle6dae P wn ..

This enlarged issue was published under the able editorship of Margaret Hanna. We read the magazine thoroughly and opinionate that practically everything in the magazine is worthwhile. Students wvill spend their time constructively when they read the CAROLINA REVIEW. THE GAMECOCK con gratulates Margaret Hanna, Mart Smith, managing editor, and their staff for an ex cellent issue. Students may wonder why this issue was free while the first magazine cost 25 cents. Reason? Part of the activities fee which you pay goes to finance the CAROLINA REVIEW. It is a recognized fact that literary thought is the greatest need on this well organizedl campus. TUHE GA MECOCK feels that the (AROLJNA REVIEW is a worthy step in the relieving of this deplorable situation. EASTER TIH E (;A MECOCK takes opportu nity to wish every student and member of the Univer sity personniel a Hlappy Easter. A SPLENDID BEGINNING Our debating team is off to win new lauiirels.

But the fact hat the team was reorga nized .inust a few weeks ago makes it a marvelous b)egining.. Everyo ne at the University is proudl of its Debating team. We knowv it will continue to b)ring honor to our school and the state of South Carolina!

MY OP Instead of a regular columit this week. I ani going to include It in a letter to a vouiple of huddles I'vr meant to write to for some time. Dear xennethi and Loren, I don't wanit you boys to t1hinlk thail I've forgotten you, hevause I'm here and you're not. But the only way I cln get timle to write you any time soon is to mix business and pleasure, and tihat's what I'm doing now. There Is, here on the campus, a mimeographed pamphlet entitled Student Life and ActivitIes. It deals with student life, explains canipius activities. and just guides the new student along in general. And even though I'm grad uating this June tyes, finally) I read it over pretty thoroughly to see j%ust what impression it would give. On the first page, I ran into a typi('al example of the hypocrisy of I'SC. Down at the bottom of the pange is the statement "Democ racy is an outstandIng character Istic of student life . . . regardless of wherie you are from, or how much or how lit tle money your parents have, every one on this campus sItands or falls on the basis of what you can do and your own person al]it y." It sounsds tealI pretty, docsn't it ? But I almost forgot, you came to Carolina too. Betauase abaoutI a page and a half further comes thIiis comlpleteI coin trd ittion.

I don't believe that any school with an enrollment of 2,80W students could possibly have only 36 qutialified office holders. Hut Isn't that just the way some in-ople are. They say one thing ani thev mean another. They don't see anything wrong with the campus the way it is, h1*ause every time something unpleasant or unfair comes upl), they turn their heads, or shield their eyes. So long as it doesn't affect them. Well, it's a great life, if you don't weaken. And as long as somebody else does. Graduation tomois drawing near. Mid-semester exams are over, and so far as I know the lucky day is June 19. It should he one of the biggest graduations Carolina has ever had.

Letters to Madam Editor and Students: Progressive government develops into mere deeny when, with freedom for speech and thought, a majority desiring changes cannot attain the onds they desi'e because those in power fail to heed tie voices of Ahose for whom they are respon iihle. In other words, in the society XV have PEOPLE as the basic -leient. The PEOPLE have likes and dislikes, as individuals. When I majority of the PEOPLE want ;omethlng it Is for those of the .'OVERNMENT to see that these iesires are accomplished. This Is )ased on the theory that what a majority desires is constructive. Sonic of tie students have ex pressed themselves on these varl us points through various organ zations such as KSK. Interfrater.
