University Press
Receives Orders
For Morris' Book
A recent influx of orders to the
University Press from Massachu
setts for "Woolen and Worsted
Manufacturing in the Southern
Piedmont" by James A. Morris
brought about an inquiry from the
University Press officials.
The result of the investigation
follows:
It seems that Senator-elect J. F.
Kennedy of Massachusetts had ap
peared on a nation-wide broadcast
of "Meet the Press" on why textile
mills are moving south. On the
program he repeatedly emphasized
the difference in northern and
southern wage scales.
Following the broadcast a letter
was published in the "Boston Her
ald." The letter stated that the au
thor had read a book published by
the University of South Carolina
and written by a native of Mas
sachusetts. This book pointed out
that there is a great deal more to
the problem than just a difference
in wages-namely, lower taxes,
lower power cost, nearness of raw
materials, modern one floor plants,
and a greater out-put per employee.
Mrs. L. J. DuBose said that the
demand for the book from New
England since the broadcast had
been exceedingly heavy.
One letter from the Bay State
ordered two copies explaining that
it was being sent to Senator-elect
Kennedy.
Gamecock Pep Club

comments on the improvement of

Roy Haymond and his orchestra
will provide the music for the an
nual Christmas dance tonight at
the Naval armory from nine to
one A. M. The semi-formal gffair
sponsored annually by the New
man Club will honor Walt Shea
and John "Lip" Latorre, co-cap
tains of the 1952 football team.
Haymond's orchestra is an eight
piece ensemble which provides the
background for the vocals by Lil
lian Corely, Columbia, who sang
at one time for Tommy Tucker's
orchestra. The accent is on the
youth in the Haymond band, al
though they are all experienced
musicians. The band has played for
various social fraternities on the
campus and has played at func
tions of the law federation.
As guests of honor, the co-cap
tains will each receive engraved
medals at the intermission program
under the direction of Bill Roche,
Greenwood, who is vice-president
of the Newman Club.
Latorre, who played leftend on
the defensive team last season, was
recently named to the All-State
eleven along with seven other of
his team mates.
Walt Shea played mostly on the
offense. Formerly a defensive end,
he come into his own after switch
ing positions back in 1950. During
the past season, Shea caught eight
passes for a total yard gainage
of ninety-nine. Playing varsity
basketball in 1951, Shea managed
the first base slot as a regular
and batted .193.
Tickets for the dance are on sale
from Newman Club members and
will be sold at the door for $1.50
stag or drag.
