I ask this in fairness to the stu dent body and to the members of the various other campus organi zations. At the same time, I might sug gest that they sit down and try to figure out what the H-- The Gamecock does with all its money; try to get it running more effi ciently; and if possible, distribute a little more of the money to the organizations that need it for bet ter uses. In conclusion I wish to state that in my opinion any person who will not accept a campus position purely for the experience, respect and prestige gained from it, isn't worth a damn.

Get Complete Loi On Campus Wolv BY A NAVY MAN Oh the co-ed, Oh the co-ed Is the college student's foe First she breaks us then she shakes us After she has spent our dough Sad but true are the words of the song quoted above and if some people only knew how true. Can you trust one ? Can you tell her a secret? Can you expect her to keep a date ? Can you talk sensibly with one about any subject? Can you do anything reasonable and expect her to respond like a normal person? The answer, my dear friend is emphatically NO. Why do they have to be so charming and sweet at times but so darn Sfickle and knife-sticking at others? Maybe you have been turned down by one girl and can see no chance in immediately calling an Oother. If more than ten minutes has elapsed you are a gone duck for the "word" has already been spread out over Sims and is hurriedly reaching the dormitories so your best bet is that friend of yours that lives out in town. Some are not even so kind as to turn you dowvn, but with sugar and honey coming over the line, make that date, and when you meet her at the scheduled time you are casually Informed that her room does not answer. Being the sucker that you are, you wait on her for a half hour and then go out and get drunk by yourself. Yep, they are guilty of all these things and even more. One of the deepest cuts, however, is to be written a kind note on how nice you are and how she will always value your friend ship but that she is going to marry that Air Corps Lieutenant that she met this summer. Oh yes, you have your trouble with the "zoom birds" and their bars. You say to yourself just wait until you have your stripe, but, -oh heck, a lot of good that will do. The young lady will probably be In Reno getting a divorce by then and being the sucker that a male Is, he will probably be dating her again.

Words... (Continued from Page 2) student body. it is impossible for the editor or managing editor of The Gamecock to have a paying part-time job. This $100 would help the journalists support themselves while working on the paper. In regard to Mr. Streem's last opinion, The Gamecock editor does receive experience, and perhaps respect and prestige. He also re ceives criticism, little sleep, poor grades because of the time the job itakes, and many headaches. If Gamecock staff members thought only of themselves, as Streem said, they would never take the job. When the Statmn Manager or any other member of WUSC over sleeps a half-hour one morning in stead of signing on the station-as occasionally happens-no repercus sions are felt; but if the managing editor of The Gamecock knocked off a half-hour early instead of putting the paper to bed, all hell would break- loose when students found no Gamecock in their box Thursday night or Friday morning. The Gamecock staff feels a re sponsibility and never leaves half a column blank. We must do our job and cannot leave this office regardless of the hour (it is now 2:30 a. m.)-until the job is done. If WUSC feels that it is pro viding a necessary service to the students, why must they present -Down s Coeds kind settled girls who are not guilty of such things and will be willing to act like a normal person. BY A COED Wolves! Wolves! Wolvesl Some dressed in Navy blue; some diessed in zoot suits; some dressed in gentlemen's rigs; and some just dressed as wolves. They take the poor co-ed out and say, "At last I've found the one and only." Thea she jumps every time the tele phone rings in hopes that he is calling back. After a week of this, it dawvns on her that it is just another "line"-something to get around but fast. The innocent little co-ed has fallen again hook, line, and sinker. Can you blame her if she doesn't believe you-even wvhen a miracle happens andl you mean what you say? The co-ed tries desperately to improve the poor wvolves' culture, but will they talk sensible about. any subject? No, they want to get (down to the bare facts. If you let him kiss you, he lets the whole campus know that you're fast as - - - -,, and if you don't kiss him, he says that you're' a big drip. Nowv I ask you-what can the poor, innocent co-ed (10? The co-ed wvaits around all week for her current heart-throb to ask her for a (date for Satuday night. She does everything except knock him over with a hammer. And at last gives a (late to Mopey Joe. Who (10 you think calls her for a date at 7 o'clock Saturday night? None other than her current heart throb. Such is the life of a co-ed. How about the wvolves that rush you off your feet for a (late and then when you give them one, they don't show up. Or the wolves that tell you to be ready at 7 o'clock sharp because you're going to a friend's house for supper, and you just can't be late. So you rush yourself to death to be ready and then wait around on pins andl needles until 8:30. So, dear co-eds, here's best advice, be wise like your friends the wolves-and give as much as they can dish out. erman Club Formal 4.,X uary 9 were (left to right): WVill M ay, Asmistant Treasurer, and Bobbie Lee, Vice- I resident, and Catheri Phi Eps Elect P Bill Novit of Charleston was elected superior of Phi Epsilon Pi Fraternity for the spring semester, retiring superior Isadore Lourie announced.

WUSC knows that the Gamecock serves the students in a more necessary way. Of course, WUSC does pro vide very good entertainment for the students living on the campus. The present editor of The Gamecock, Bill Novit, has not asked for nor received one cent for serving -as editor or for working the previous six semesters. He, however, realizes that future staffs deserve what he did not receive. He believes that if The Gamecock is to remain a first-class paper,' and serve the student body and university, future editors will have to be paid, as were past editors until three'semester's ago. The Gamecock's books are lo cated in the University treasurer's office and are open for the general public to inspect.
