Number '37'
The Monday edition of the
- Columbia Record had a picture
of Gamecock co-captains Carl
Brazell and Hugh Bell. Brazell
was n%caring the number "37"
on his jersey.
Number "37" was made
famous by the late Steve
Wadiak, and at the end of his
brilliant career was perma
nently retired by. the univer
sity.
When Coach Rex Enright
was asked about the jersey of
11razell. he said, "I didn't know
he was wearing 37, 1 didn't
know we had a 37. The jersey
that Carl was wearing was a
practice jersey made of cotton.
We order practice jerseys by
the dozens, and in the rush we
forgot to tell the manufacture
to omit numbe'r :37. We have
no intention of reviving nuni
h)er :37, and we will withdraw
it even from practice."

greatly aid mayors, magistrates
and( recorders.

cutor in the presentation and
prosecution of traffic cases." New
chemical tests, skidmnarks as
evidence, and other such matters

the court clerks responsibilities
wvas also greatly stressed. Of in
terest to chiefs of police and traf
fic officers was the emphasis
placed on a uniform traffic code
and the officer's role in traffic
courts andl traffic law.

we help ourselves." This- is tht
basis of the World Universit)
Service-dedicated to furthering

The main feature of WUS is i

iational Understanding; 4) Proj
cts for Universities Abroad; 5)

'tates; 6) Funds for Korea; 7)
emergency Needs, and 8) Admin
stration.
Last year, contributions from
ver 700 American campuses to
aled $281,794.88, about 90 per
ent of the money collected in this
ountry. Of that amount, Caro
ina students were responsible for
60.
In past years the campaign has
cen connected with various other
ctivities-such as the "Ugly

It is our genuine hope that at
