(USC Young Professo Southerners As By BARBARA DERRICK d It seems rather unusual to ad- v dress the youthful William L. I Spalding, newly appointed pro- t fessor of history, as "Doctor." h However, the title is as it should be, for Doctor Spalding received t his Ph. D. last month. He beams I with pride at the mention of the 1 newly bestowed title, and who can blame him. b Doctor Spalding was born in . Buffalo, New York, but when asked what city he claimed as his home town, he smiled amicably and said "Well, I have lived in almost every section of the country s except the Southeast, now I plan 1 to settle here."

The Selective Service Law re ie quires registration of aly s, men within five days after their is 18th birthday. There is some mis id understanding among students as to where one should register. All a young man has to do is present i himself to the local board or to a al registration p l a c e designated I closest to the university. The regis is tration process is simple and re ie quires only a short time. The data is gathered and sent to the local e oard of the commuhity which has r- jurisdiction over the student. d When the registrant has a per manent home, the permanent home Is address should be given to regis s. tration officials, and not some box 7, umerOn the campus. Th"1-e pur re pose being, so the student can be is classified by his own local board. Of course, students from Columbia to attending the university have only at to register with their Richlandl as County board. nThe obligation to register is em r- phasized when reaching the age of a1.Telaw is specific and provides severe penalty for failure to com ply, even though there have been no inductions within the past fewv months.

C' People Are S In Eastern G Reinbacher ] By BILL MeDONALD - "People are starving in the tussian zone of Germany," said Volfgang Reinbacher when ad ressing a meeting of the Inter raternity Council last Monday, 4 'he topic of his speech was the ffects of Communism in eastern ;ermany. P "Outside help is almost impos- ti ible," he related. "The Russians t( ave finally allowed CARE pack ges into 'the eastern zone, but oeople who receive too many pack ges or who send or receive too F nany letters suddenly aren't b eard from anymore." L The standard of living in eastern t, rermany is the same as it was in 01 945. The Russians have dis- 2 nantled almost all of the factories n order to ship the equipment to tussia. . "Food rations in eastern Ger nan? are very low," Wolfgang tated. "If a person is too old or inable to work he doesn't receive t rationing card. This helps the ylack market flourish. Brain work rs receive rationing cards for imall amounts of food. The factory worker receives more, and, at the ;op of the rationing scale are the communist party members. Any me spying for the Itussians re ,eives an extra allocation." Wolfgang received a pass from he Russians to visit an aunt in !astern Germany. When he tried ;o return to the American zone he was stopped by the Russians be !ause a new rule had invalidated is pass. He gave his suitcase to I farmer for a sack in which he n )laced his belongings. For a day ie worked in one of the farmer's 'ields which lay partly in the Rus- J fian and partly in the American ( ones. He finally dashed for a grove of treeis on the Aicuanii ide with Russian machinegun bul lets kicking up dirt around him. Wolfgang said that "People in the western zone of Germany can make a decent living now. Com munism is going down. The most mportant thing right now is the reunification of Germany."

They have launched three successful pep meet. ings, so far, before the home games with Furman, North Carolina and Clemson. Joe Molony, editor of the Gamecock has assisted the com. mittee. Joe Stringer's motion that Rtu. dent council ask the BAM club to disregard rows and seat numbers at football games was voted down, Many students have said that the seating situation is working itself out and probably will right itself by next year. Student council will ask for a reduced price on date tickets next year. Joe Ingram suggested that the school fight song be better publi. cized. He suggested getting a local band t6 make a recording of it. and getting a sports program to feature it. Many students like the new fight song introduced at the pep rally before the Furman game better. Plans will be made to pop. ularize it. The Homecoming Queen election will be held about a week before the homecoming game against Wake Forest Nov. 26. "Rat Week", the most recent project, has been called a success. Three days before the Carolina. Clemson game the ratting of fresh. men began. Each "rat" had to earn 50 points by doing tasks re quested by upperclassmen. A rat court was held on the eve of the game. Student council members with the Kappa Sigma Kappa Rat Committee were Betty Ortmann, Barbara Raffield, Joe Stringer, Legare Addison and Dick -Dunham. The governor of South Caro. lina, the state superintendent of education, the chairman of Senate committee on education and the chairman of the House committee on education are the Ex-Officlo members of the university board of trustees.
