(2) Phil says the telephone cystem is stufficient. (3) "The studlent activities fee s sufficient," Phil contends. He oes not agree with the way it s apportioned at the present time. (4) On the discipline question, 'hil say.s, "No, the sttudent mem er should not be r-estrained from iving this information. Ho is a Views viewed by the Gamecock on ked the same questions, the e.

(5) Phil says the student body president owes his allegience to the students as a whole, to no particular individual or group. He thinks the president should con sider anything for the good of the majority, whether recom mended by the majority or the minority. (() The amendment is a good one. according to Phil, because it gives the senior class president a particular job when in the past the position has been one of honor more than anything else. The sen ior cl1ss president is in a posi tion to know what should be of fered to freshmen in an orienta tion class. (7) More stress should be put on the Honor System at the uni versity, Phil says. In order for it to be workable, the honor sys tem should be as much a part of the university as a winning foot ball team or any other athletic team. The system and the Honor Principle should be explained to each incoming freshman in detail and integrated into the orienta tion program.

(2i "No, I think the university should prIovide outside p)hones at any place' t hat the amount of p)hon ing wvarra nts it.'' (3) Bill believes the student ac tivities fee i.s not large enough to1d a goodl job for all the stu dent organizations depending on it. "'Some that should be getting an allocation aren't, while a few others could be cut." (4) "The student, representa tive' on the council was put there b)y students who have a right to know what he is doing. They should know how cases are han dIed and the' decisions made, so that it may serve as a precedent in the future," Bill says. (5) Bill says the student body pretsidenJt owes his allegiance to he ',t udent body. lHe should get (leas from the students wit,h an insight into the* past and future. (fIt "T'he amendlment was an ex cellent idea,'' according to Bill. "TIhe orientation program re quire.s the full attention as a group undler a capable head like the president of the senior class. Orientation should be an important aspect of the Carolina freshman's life." (7) Hill says the Honor Sys tem should be madle to work. The powers of the Honor Board andl the D)iscipline Committee should be mor'e clearly separatedl and de fi ned, according to Hill.

He quoted figures which showed the state's high illiteracy 1 rates and low economic level of 50 years ago and said the boll I weevil finally proved the futility I of the one crop system. "Few people know that South Carolina had the first bank to 1 go broke in 1920 when the boll weevil almost destroyed the cot ton crop," he said. le then spoke of the economic progress of the state since the war and the state's ability to at tract industry. He also mentioned South Carolina's public school building program in which over 109 million dollar. has already bievn spent for over 420 permanent school buildings.
