S. District Court in October of last year, saying that she had been denied admission to i Carolina on grounds of race and s that she had received a letter say- s ing the University could not "act v favorably on the application." The University was given 20 days to s rile a reply. In a telephone interview this I week, Miss Monteith told "The ' Gamecock" that the University r liminates .stration heduling macy students use it to register for their spring semester classes. The student and his advisor first select the courses the student will take and mark them on a card using the course code number printed opposite the course. The machine tries every possible eombination of class meeting times to eliminate conflicting schedules. [t fills each section with a course is evenly as possible. Work cards ire available which the student fills out to keep certain times free. rhe machine allows an hour free time for lunch. The new system will relieve pro- r fessors, instructors, and the regis- t ;rar from the time-consuming task b )f manually scheduling. The stu- L lents will benefit in having a more personal contact with their advisor, wvoiding long lines, and having heir class schedule assured. There a no way, however, for the student o choose times or professors for ts classes. t "So far, students like the system f very much," Dean of the School of Pharmacy R. W. Morrison said. All of the schedules for the 125 itudents involved in the experiment vill be ready on Monday. The School of Pharmacy was ~hosen for the trial operation be 'ause each student in the school ad an advisor. ock' Staff The Spring mnnounced at "The Gamecock" an ual banquet were Margaret Byrd, spy editor; Donna Russell and Lobert Want, news editors; Pat Loessle, feature editor; and Regina i;algano, society editor.

Court Carolina aid she had "not exhausted all >ossibilities." When asked about NAACP aid n her behalf, she said that such id had been offered. "We didn't ay yes or no. We may, take it, and ve may not." Miss Monteith is seeking admis ion as a transfer student. She vas enrolled in the fall semester at he College of Notre Dame for Vomen, a private school in Balti nore, Md. Asked if she expected violence n the eventuality of her admission o Carolina, she replied, "No, I eally don't. I would expect that here will be some difficulty, but iothing like Mississippi." The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People announced in New York City early this week that efforts will soon be made to integrate the Universities of Alabama and South Carolina, now that Missis sippi has integrated. However, a spokesman for the Legal Defense Fund of the NAACP declined to announce actual plans until suits are filed. The superior academic achieve nents of her daughter led Mrs. +onteith% mother of the Negro irl, to believe she was "rejected olely on the basis of. race." In the recent hearing on the [arvey Gantt case, Judge Wyche uled that if a person's application > a college or university was com lete, he could not be excluded ecause of race. Attorneys representing M i s s fonteith are Matthew Perry and .incoln C. Jenkins, both of Colum ia, and Ernest Finney of Sumter. Her mother believes it will be he fall of 1963 before Miss Mon eith can enroll at Carolina if heir now-pending suit is success ul. While the problem of racial tension is only in its early stages at USC's campus, Clemson Col lege-Carolina's sister school has reached the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals in Alexandria, Va., in an integration suit brought against that state school by Harvey Gantt, a Charleston Negro, who seeks admission for the spring semester as a transfer studenf. Since the Gantt case can go no higher than the Supreme Court, a decision will probably be reached effecting Clemson-one way or another - before the spring semester begins. If Gantt should be successful, lie will become the first Negro ever knowingly admitted to a South Carolina State University since the Civil War. spring Term legistration starts Jan.28 Spring registration will start onday, January 28, at 9 a.m. Approximately 4,400 new fresh en, transfers, and students con nuing at school who entered the il semester with a 2.00 G.P.h better will register Monday.
