Circuit Court District (Virginia, West Virginia, South Carolina and North Carolina) to enter the New York finsils. Previous Placements Twenty other schools through out the country were also selected through the regional preliminar les. Three out of the five years that the University's Law School team has entered the regional contest It has placed In 'the top two positions. Members of this year's team were Heyward McDonald, Robert M. Holmes and Kermit King. Prof. David H. Means was faculty advisor for the group. The Law School team was judged on the brief they pre pared for their case and on their oral argument. Their 'particular case which was before the U. S. Supreme Court dealt with whether a lower court (a state supreme court) had correctly stated the McNaghten theory of criminal insanity. Awarded Certifieate While the L4w School team had prepared their brief onfy for one side, they were prepared to argue on either the state suprema4ourt or U. S. Supreme Court level.

He said that while the work is goig" on no cars will be allowed to park on the lot. When the lot is leveled and finished, "parking places will be marked off for stu dent cars." E. M. Henderson, University chief engineer, said trees on the lot will be cut down beginning to day. He added that University of ficials request all car owners to have their cars moved early to day. The number of individual park ing spaces will be increased by the systematic marking off of the entire area. It is requested that students observe the designated spaces when parking their cars. This work is a preliminary step towards the building of a new men's dormitory on that block. It is understood that there will be either one or two buildings on the Devine Street .side of the area.

Chooy 'Coa Causes Confusion Some students, it seems, will do anything to get signed up for a class. At least that's what one University professor thinks. While lecturing to an Eng lish class last Monday a freshman coed walked into Dr. M. G. Christophersen's class and stood before his lec ture stand. Apparently con fused, she waited there until he stopped lecturint to ask her what she wanted. Queried she, "How long is it going to be before you are through talking so you can register me?" Dr. Christophersen's reply was that he would appreciate it if she would let him finish his lecture. He then directed the stu dent to another place in Davis College where she could get signed up.

The proposed program would increase the University's opera tion budget by $258,894. Accord ing to the pamphlet the Increase would be two-tenths of one per cent of the 188-1/8 million dol lars appropriated for the total 1955-56 General Fund. Gives Pay Surveys The pamphlet, "An Analysis of the Faculty Salary Situation at the University of South Carolina," illustrates faculty pay surveys in the South and throughout the United States. Charts are also given on percentage changes in selected occupations compared with changes in faculty wages. Comparing faculty salaries at the S. C. state university with salaries at ten selected state sup ported schools in the South, the pamphlet shows that the Univer sity pays the lowest _average sal aries of the schools surveyed. Salary studies at these schools show that the "State University ranks last in average salary paid to professors, is second from the bottom in average payments to associate professors, second from last in the average of assistant professors; and ranks third from the bottom in a tie with three other institutions in the average salary paid to instructors." Faculty Pay Contrasted In addition the pamphlet points out the five pers cent nation-wide decline in purchasing power of the real faculty pay while real in come for physicians has sky rocketed to an 80 per cent in crease. In other occupations, sal aries among industrial workers have risen 48 per cent and lawyers' pay has jumped ten per cent. A survey of the local situation shows that the decline in Univer sity faculty salaries was .24 per cent from 1940 to 1954 which was a 19 per cent drop compared with national figures for the same pe riod. Southern schools included in the comparative survey are the University of Alabama, the Urii versity of Florida, Florida State University, University of Georgia, and Louisiana State University. Also, the University of Missis sippi, the University of North Carolina, the University of Ten nessee, the University of Texas, and the University of Virginia. Increase Would Bolster USC "The 85 per cent increases would raise the University of South Carolina's position con siderably provided other institu tions did not raise salaries. In the case of salaries paid to professors she would rise from last place to sixth in the distribution of the 11 schools. The raise given asso elate professors .would place her in second place rather than last. Assistant professors' salaries would be in first place instead of second from last and instructors' salaries at the University would head the list. "These comparisons are merely hypothetical since all Institutions may be expested to increase salar le during the next few years." Lack of higher pay creates a ecsapetitive situaton for faculty member,s among Southern schools and schools In other areas of the nation the pamphlet Indicates, cit ing several actual esses "The 8euth In general and the Ui0itir- of South Carolina In partiestar are ow men on the totean pols.?
