Advice T( Hoping F Editor's note: This is the second in a series of articles by women who have jobs in what is usually considered a man's field. In these articles the authors discuss the advantages a n d disadvantages of working in a field in which the competition is predominately male. BY LOUISE WIDEMAN I began my career as a court reporter in Spartanburg, moving from this position to that of secretary to the late Governor T. C. Blackwood. After four years as his secre tary, I became clerk of the judi ciary committee of the House of Representatives. I continued as clerk for over twenty years. During this time, however, I was studying law at night, and I passed the bar in 1945. After this, I did private law practice for eleven years, serving also with the Legislature when it was in session. In 1956, I abandoned private practice to accept a position as a member of the South Caro lina State Industrial Commission. rhe five-member board of com missioners handles compensation claims of workmen injured on the job over the state of South Carolina. Each member is both "judge and jury." When I wias still engaged in private practice, I also taught and coached private students in law at night in my office. Being in the Legislature and having been a court reporter helped to interest me in the field of law. I had been exposed to it constantly for a number of years.

Who Are In Law ...X.. x: Wideman A young woman going into the field of law stands about an equal chance with men today. Any number of women in domes tic cases, divorce, automobile accidents, adoptions, prefer a woman lawyer. The two opposite poles that a young woman would face today would be to become a "silent wheel" in a large firm of men lawyers or to endure a few hard years on her own until she has built up a practice. I would suggest to any girl considering law that she try to take as many courses as possible in college that would be of tre mendous help to her in law school. and later in prasticing law. These courses include public speaking, political science, his tory, social science, psychology and business English. I would say that typing and shorthand are indispensable. For practical tips she could go sit in on Legislative sessions at the State House, keep up with the newspapers, attend as many cases in court as possible, and always-take notes. She might also keep an eye on Mr. Perry Mason! AP~O Sponsors Blazer Fittings Alpha Phi Omega, national service fraternity, is sponsoring the traditional f a I I Carolina blazer fitting.

JRLiN-thl] By JIRcQuie SpAWN BY BEVERLY SPEARS Guest Columnist Well, here we are again, and glad to be back-at least, we were glad, until registration day. That's enough to discourage anybody, even a starry-eyed freshman. Still, every year it seems to get a little easier. Maybe by 1997.... So you're having a hard time getting over your sum mer? Don't feel alone; you have lots of fellow day-dream ers. Overheard: (Did I ever mention to you that the world is full of eavesdroppers?) "My summer? Oh, it was just WONderful! Let me tell you about this DARLING man I met, and he says he's coming up to see me, and HOW can I STUDY when I have so MANY OTHER things to think about?" But we manage somehow-don't we???? Parties, Parties, Parties! Sunday night was a busy time for some of the sororities on campus. It was Standing Room Only for those sociable souls who donned heels or tie to greet old friends and enjoy good food at the drop-ins. Crowded or not, though, we didn't see anything but smiles in the bunch! Getting an early start on the social season were KD, Chi 0, Pi Phi, ADPi, DZ, and ZTA. No sooner had SDT recovered from a party at Sullivan's Island (the last week in August) than they were at Papa Joe's celebrating a birthday-Linda Hirchmann's. Stuffing themselves, but nicely, on Wednesday night were Marsha Grant, Barbara Seigel, Phyllis Rundbaken, Jane Rubin, BIG party last Thursday night at the Plantation Club, with the Sigma Chis and their dates bounding into the new semester wearing the widest grins you ever saw. Among the happy were Lill Mood and Tony McCreight, Betty Jane Plowden and Tim Quinn, Patty Furr and Jim Herring, Eva Webb and Ted Owens, Penny Buck and Louie Osteen, Katie Coleman and Arnie Webb, Hazel Ann Gramling and Bubber Farr, Judy Wilson and Bill Goodall, Brenda Truett and Bill Brock, Elinor Stevens and Jack Seawell, Phoebe Clamp and Tommy Pruitt, Jane Yarbor and Ted Davis, Carmen Cherry and Albert Springs, Sally Stokes and George Sullivan. Friday night the Plantation Club found itself invaded by Sigma Nus, Sigma Nus and MORE Sigma Nus--Jimmy Mills with Emily McAbee, Sally Commander and Charlie Bradshaw, Saunda Carney and Bob Bentley, Rosie Jeter and Larry Weber, Libby Weeks and Jimmy Moss, Susan McLaurin and Milton Lewis, Gerry Barron and Carol Gray, Sarah Clemens and Boyd Ford were there, among the throng. And taking over the Plantation Club for Saturday night (wonder if the place will still be standing when Carolina finally leaves it?) were the Lambda Chis and friends Barbara Masur and Bill Rast, K i t t y McKenzie and Frankie Jeffords, Betsy Allman and Rick Taylor, Charlotte Gower and Nick Murray, Bill Cobb, Ronnie Shuler, Lain Kaufman, Clyde Brice and Norma Utsey, Janet Roberson and Kelley Jones, Penny Hetherington and Sam Lundy. The Syrian Lebanon Club was the place and last Friday night was the time, when the SAEs and their cronies gathered to drag in this all-too-willing semester. In the thick of things were Wendy Rivenbark and Neal Patrick, Molly McKenzie and Larry Barringer, Jane Hinnant and Walter Robinson, Pinky McInnis and Clark Reed, Julie Fuller and Murk Alexander, Nancy Martin and Kent Ander son, Mary Ann Easterling and Tommy Butz, Kit Quattle baum and Jack Davis, Jeannie Garvin and Henry Laffitte, Jan Ellis and John Chappelle, Janet Wilkinson and Lloyd Hendricks, Sandra Harmon and Cravens Ravenel. As this column is being typed, the USC band is prac ticing just outside the window. Reminds you that football season is here again, hm ? The band really sounds good, too. Just can't wait for the Duke game. Naturally Carolina will win, as usual. Weddings Summer weddings were the thing this year--Gloria Hlopper (Pi Phi) and Jim White (Chi Psi Alum), Leah Switzer and Jim Hughes (Lambda Chi), June McCauley (ZTA Alum) and Scott Bowen, John Dillard (Chi Psi) and Jo Ann Lott, Jack Smith (Chi Psi) and Billie Beth Nash, Claire Gregory (ZTA) and Don Cappell (Phi Kap), Shrader Ruff (ZTA Alum) and Ranny Randall (Phi Kap), Jo Ann Goff (KD) and Thomas Adams (SAE), Patricia Usher (KD Alum), and Jerry Hart (SAE), Diane Eldridge and George Davis, Jane Guthrie and William Kelly (SAE), Audrey Addy (DDD) and Charlie Cate (SAE).

Welcome We'd like to take just a line or two before we go to say "Welcome" to all the new transfers and freshmen. It really means a lot to us old, tired, overworked (Professors, take note) upperclassmen to see your smiles and your enthusiasm. We know you'll love Carolina, Most of us woni't come right out and admit it, unless we happen to be talking to a Clemson fan, but we think it's the greatest mass of libraries, parties, and IBM machines in the whole world, Bye That does it for another week. Behave yourself, and don't work too hard. Twelve hours a day at the library should be aenaough to s.it -, proesor
