of 22 presses whose affairs were
business-like enough from which '
to derive statistics.
The May 14 issue of the "Satur
day Review of Literature" carries s
a half-page advertisement of the 0
USC Press' four books soon to n
be published. They are: .'Primi
tive War," by Dr. Harry H. Tur- a
a
ney-High; "Loyalty to Facts", edit
ed by Dr. Orin F. Crow; "South p
Carolina Bird Life," by Alexander 11
Sprunt, Jr., and E. Burnham
Chamberlain; and "William Gil- C
more Simms," edited by A. T.
Odell and Mary C. Simms Olip
hant.
Wardlaw said the Audubon
House, 1000 Fifth Ave., N. Y., fi
,will exhibit the paintings used C
in "South Carolina Bird Life" for a
one month beginning October 1 e
