SubsidizeEt
Loans and5
By Dew James
Carolina students who find it
difficult to finance themselves, or
who have high scholastic standing
may subsidize their college educa
tion through loans and scholar
ships.
Last year 105 students received
approximately $30,000 in loans
and scholarships. The scholarships
are provided by individuals, or
ganizations, and business concerns.
Scholarship Funds
The largest number of scholar
ship funds are derived from
grants given by individuals. Many
of these individuals are Carolina
alumni, as John J. Earle and Beau
fort Watts Ball.
Sometimes a grant is made in
memory of a class. Such a grant
was made by A. Tracy Hardin
who founded the class of 1894
scholarship. Other outstanding
scholarship funds founded by or
in memory of individuals are the
James F. Byrnes Fbundation, J.
A. McCullough, Bernard Baruch,
and Ellen Stanley Watkins.
Some scholarships are available
to only students from a designated
area of the state. An example of
this is the Lawrence M. Keitt
Jewish Feast,
Easter To Be
On Same Day
The celebration of holy days of
two ma.jor religious faiths will
occur on the same date this year
when the Jewish feast of the Pass
over and Easter are both observed
Sunday, April 18.
These dates are determined sep
arately by astronomical calcula
tions and their coincidence will
not take place again until 1981,
according to Charles F. Martin,
professor of astronomy at the
university.
The event is an excellent illu
stration of the role of astronomy
in formulating the calendar.
In olden times the. Jewish high
priest signaled the beginning of
Nisan, the first month of the
Hebrew ecclesiastical year, with
the traditional blowing of the
shofar or ram's horn. The 14th
day of Nisan was the feast of the
Passover.
The blowing of the ram's horn
was (lone at the first appearance
of the thin crescent of the new
moon after the vernal equinox,
March 21. The vernal equinox is
the point where the apparent sun
crosses the equinoctial on its way
north. Thus Passover is the 14th
day after the first,.new moon fol
lowing March 21. This year that
new moon was on April 8, end so
the feast of the Passover will
begin at sunset of April 17 and
last until sunset of April 18.
Easter is the first Sunday after
the first full moon that follows the
vernal equinox. In the determina
ion of the date of full moon it
Is decreed that 14 days will always
be taken as the interval of time
between new moon and full moon.
This year, since the new moon
occurred on April 8, 14 days later
will place the date of full moon
as April 17. This Is a Saturdlay,
and so the following Suanday,
Aprill 18, will he Eiaster Day.
