You get to know people, and I don't feel that I am as far away from home as I really am because of the friendliness of the people on the Carolina campus.

"Having just moved from a dormitory room into private quar ters, I can make this compari son: "I no longer have to contend with a snoring roommate, bor rowed b o o k s and the 'Grand Central Station' complex. How ever, I lived with a group of fine guys and always enjoyed being among them. "I think that if I were not still living, on the fringe of the cam pus and associated with two ac 4. ' Unda Stoddard tive social groups, I would be missing out on an essential part of University life." BOB BURRIS, a freshman, expresses his opinion: "I think that dormitory life is the ideal way of life for a col lege student. Not only does it give the student a chance to meet and become friends with many people that he would never even see if he lived at home dur ing his years at college, it gives the new student much responsi bility that he would never have at home. "In a dormitory you are 'on * a.... s....n..... 6t'.s cle.an.. Raw on, you.ool? - e Life your own.' There is no one to get you up in the morning and off tc class on time, or to se that all your studying is done before you go out, or anything else of that nature. "It is the next thing to living out on your own, and I don't think a person should go through four years, or however many years it takes to receive the de sired degree, without living in a dormitory for at least one semes ter." KAY KAISER, a sophomore, feels this way about living on campus: "I think that the advantages of living on campus are the facts of being able to make more friends, join more activities be Bob Burris cause the meetings are more con venient to attend, and the prob len of transportation to and from school is much less difficult All these add to a more well-rounded college life. "The only real disadvantages are the lack of privacy and dormi tory restrictions."* ANN FORSTER, a senior, gives her opinion: "Every girl should have a 'taste of dormitory life.' Living with other girls is one of the differences between high school and college. I wouldn't trade any thing for my own dormitory ex perience. It taught me to be more independent, to tolerate and to make decisions. You have to share and live harmoniously in a small area of space. You compare your self with other girls and know themi well. Some will be life-long friends. "A Columbia girl should live at Carolina, if possible, to be a real part of campus life. "I transferred from Converse College after my freshman year, because I didn't like and still don't like signing in and out and all the other rules. I lived at home that year. When I was a junior, I moved into Maxcy. It seemed to be a good solution to the problem of going back and forth to school several times each day. I enjoyed 'bull sessions,' having a roommate, etc....

Charlie Barnet's career has b)een a long and successful one. At 16, he was already known as an up and coming sax man; and it wvas then that he decided to head for New Orleans to pick up 1 on jazz styling from the cradle f American music. After his stay there, he or ~anized his own band and headed i for the road with a new concept n jazz that soon caught on with he younger set. Even though :hose first days were rough, Bar aet wvas gaining a reputation for Sstyle that was 10 years ahead >f its time. Personality, talent and looks roon caught the eye of movie pro 1ue*ers, and Barnet went on to 3erform in films such as "Salley, rene and Mary" and "Love and Kisses." Soon after these efforts, ie made a big hit at New York's t F'amous Door and went on to be- t ome a nationally famous band naan.t Through the years, some of oday's foremost jazz stars gained ame as members of Charlie Bar- f iet's hand.
