USC Thar Love Movel Love is a force of undisputed magnetism. Of complex composition, it is a life necessity for the majority, an underhanded weapon for the minority. It is a desire, a goal, a gift, and an achievement. Because love has well-nourished roots, its trunk bears many branches. The fruit of this tree is variegated; hate is often so closely related as to be interspersed with love. This intense feeling can easily be as sociated or confused with countless other emotions. Throughout history, love has proved itself a powerful force in men's lives. It has framed their fate and formed their destiny. From Mark Antony's Cleopatra to the Duke of Windsor's Duchess, the impact of Venus has been a potent one; even Zeus' bolts can't Exchang Honor Dorm on Friday and The Dean of Women at the S University of Tennessee, in Knox- Stop i : ville, has revealed that an honor Alleghany Coil dormitory for upperclass women cided to help th has been instituted. sion stop the s There are 78 junior and sen- disease." ior women who must have a Every year : minimum accumulative g r a d e imust rdkiss to be average of 2.5 in order to have the thirteenth p special hours and extra social pus bridge.

Love is timeless, a word with universal meaning. It is exemplified by the adoring eyes of a child, the compassion of a woman's touch. Love can be of gentle birth or it can strike with lightening speed. It can occur anywhere at any time. Some claim that love is even better the second time around. Poets fail to fully describe the wonder of this experience; scholars cannot teach it. Equally appealing to both novice and the veteran, love has individual differences but general meaning. Old but ever new, love is never static. Thanksgiving is a time of many things: relaxation, spiritual and physical rebirth, and merry-making. It is also a holiday of love.

Governmen Attackers of our United States ja governmental administration have pc been attacked in their turn and w( this is only fair.

The brave ai pioneers literally built an entire le country for the purpose of being free. They died and sweated and pi worked,.i Now the people who went to u: the First Continental Congress in and the Second Continental Con gress were mindful of this and the ci Constitution and Bill of Rights tU were written with this back- al ground; they have built-in safety " catches so that no one branch of ti the government gets too much ti power. ci H owever, President Kennedy al has gotten away from the a' safeguards and is getting more and more power. This trend to ward socialism presents a grave in danger to the United States and s< to our allies who depend on us, u: though they may not think that H they do. The Administration in cannot and should not get more power than it wants. Each issue ol should be studied more and more P carefully and then letters should C be written to congressmen to op- cc pose such legislation most of the T time since most of the time such t} legislation is contrary to the jr United States. ki It is a frightening fact that a person can be put in jail for in growing too much of a product. a, A surplus is dlangerous but a cl is the right and duty of every- hi one at Carolina to make known ti to these chosen leaders their t} wishes and suggestions for im- f< provoment and action. The sena- of tors are the means through which e, student opinion and attitude can ai be conveyed, but where there is tt no student interest, there can be no student opinion. As editor of our newspaper you have the great responsibility of trying to *M extract statements of opinion and tl feelings from among the stu- m dents. You have at your dis- re posal a means of making stu- hi dents aware that they can be w heard and listened to through w their student government leaders. yc I wholeheartedly agree with ar your point as pertains to the lack pi of sincere interest on the part of m some of the Senaas Thoswh man RwuI I.

The Administration is ying to move too fast. You in't come up here and try to >ort regular procedure and get way with it." Democratic House member, "liberal" in his voting, gave ore detail on this point: There ems to be some stange mis iderstanding at t h e White ouse about the way our govern ent is run.

Bell rec- w} reational Area were found at the tic bottom of the front page whose th headline story went into a tirade m concerning a simple request by tu the Student Senate that the min utes of their meetings once again be printed. This was ridiculous. n Your second most prominent ar- * ticle took our University Comp-se troller to task for bringing to C your attention what he believed pa: to be an inadequate job of report- in ing.

This, of course, was your prerogative. I merely want to Voien my iagreement The Flock Once upon a time, there was a iepherd who had a flock of ieep. There were hundreds of ieep in his flock, and each one ad a separate and distinct per mality. To be sure, there were ,rtain sheep that ate together, nd went around in little groups, it the majority of sheep kept tQ iemselves as much as they could nd minded their own business. hat was the trouble. Then one day, one of the sheep id something t h a t merited unishment, so the shepherd had im for dinner. Some of the ieep didn't like what the shop ard had done, and they got to -ther and organized. T h e y )uldn't, however, bring back the woured sheep, and moreover, te shepherd disliked malcon nts, so he had them for dinner o. Now there were still other ieep who took a dim view of all his apparently unwarranted ac on, so they organized, having ie good sense to keep it to them Ives. But the shepherd found it and did them in. Finally, the sheep got the idea at they could do nothing and ould have no say in their own fairs. They were permitted, of urse, to voice their grievances, it it was an unspoken law that rerything they said would be ken with a grain of salt. The tepherd could lose nothing by 3tening, and complaints were >thing to that mighty man who id already decided his courses action. The sheep might have id a chance if they had been ited, but unfortunately, only .e small groups were organized. hen too, they could have used a ader, one who was not afraid of ing gobbled up by the shepherd. ut divided they fell. Too bad. Shepherds are bigger an sheep, which is at times a od thing. But they don't need 1 the pasture. - BEAT CLEMSON! - Last Issue ['hey came, they saw, they read The "Gamecock." some were not conquered 'hey praised, they punned and they panned. diany Senators were not pleased . . .
