INTRAFRATERNITY COUNCI lina's council for placing second in annual contest for the besl fralcrni and Dean of Men L. Eugene Coo Letters.. (Continued from Page 2) past. Alumni, seated behind us, were moved to comment in less than re-printable terms, what they thought of their Alma Mater's present behavior. From the general "verbal gar bage," to the throwing of literal garbage onto the court, certainly this game was not one of the best examples of this school's good sportsmanship which has so often been shown in the past. We do, however, remain assuredly convinced that we, the students of South Carolina, will be able to put forth some praiseworthy at titudes in conjunction with this in the very near future. RAYMOND WHITFORD HULL III STUART LEE KIEHL SOCIALISM DEFINED Editor The Gamec(ock Dear Miss Reardon: Socialism has been well defined by Prof. Staughton Lynd of Yale I University as "1comprehensive I planning, involving m a x i m u il popular participation, based on public ownership of all major in dustries." The goal of such a system, accordling to President Sukarno of Indonesia, is "a goodl life for all . . .without exploita-1 tion." It is revealing to contrast so cialism thus defined with the lugubrious bugaboo you recently hurled at Political Science profes sors. Apparently you consideredI the term itself sufficiently hor renous to dispense with any con sideration of the s y s t e m it implies. Trhis omission was com pounded by the refusal of the professors to adldress themselves to the issue of socialism itself. Both you and your critics are in apparent agreement on the in herent evil of socialism; the only dispute betwveen you concerns whether these learned gentlemen are themselves tainted wvith the Devil. This seems to me unfortunate. There is a serious case for so cialism. While I certainly uphold your right to criticize socialism I would also hope your criticisms will not simply use the term as a surrogate cuss-word but make some effort seriously to deal with the values and virtues of a sys tem which has won the allegiance< of at least two-thirds of the human race....

Erich Fromm has rightly commented that bourgeois democratic so cieties provide freedom from un reasonable violations of privacy, but fail to give human beings freedom to participate responsi bly in a quest for true brother hood and community. Only a so cial society can provide this free dom. It has also been olj ected (usually by the same p e o p I e) that socialism is a good idea, but "won't work."

Good Deall SName _____ __ IAddress________ USC Fro Second Carolina Interfraternity Coun cil's winning second place in na tion-wide competition with other schools was announced at the Na tional Interfraternity Conference's annual convention held in Cincin University TB Drive. Advances Carolina students, as of Decem ber 9, have contributed approxi mately $190.00 to the Christmas Seals Campaign for 1964, accord ing to figures released by the office of the Central TB and Health Association. This figure is slightly above con tributions to the 1963 Christmas Seal Campaign during a compara ble period. Total contributions to last year's campaign made by the University students amounted to $251.10. "We are gratified by the re sponse from the University thus far," said Mrs. Donald N. Upton, Richland-Lexington Counties chair man, "and are hoping that last year's total may even be exceeded this year." Noting the job Christmas Seals do for the health of the people in the two counties, Mrs. Upton added, "There has been a rise in the number of active tuberculosis cases reported in large cities and other parts of the United States in the past year. TB has been greatly reduced, but this increase is alarm ing." The chairman said the best way to express concern is "to answer the Christmas Seal appeal and use Christmas Seals generously on all holiday mail." r Library to the library should send checks to John Fitzgerald Kennedy Li brary, Inc., P. 0.

The award is based on the IFC's service to member fraternities on campus; service to the University; and service to the community. USC's second - place rank was in the group for schools having from one to fifteen fraternities. Representing the IFC were L. Eugene Cooper, dean of men; Joe Alderman, president; Bob Crain, secretary; and representatives Mac Johnston and Mark Mattison. Although a member of the NIC since 1957, this is the first year that the campus IFC has entered the nation-wide competition. "We're extremely proud of the progress that the IFC has made in many areas. This has been a tre mendous year of improvement," commented Dean Cooper. Among new projects of the IFC are the publication of a new rush booklet, implementation of a new Sailing Club To Finish '64 Season The USC sailing team will round out its '64 season in The Citadel Regatta on the 13th and 14th of December in Charleston. Two teams of two men each headed up by Commodore Henry Cheves will represent the Univer sity in the divisional races of the Jet-14 class boats. The sailing club has participated in two regattas this semester. They placed third in the Old Do minion Regatta, and second in the one sponsored by the club at Lake Murray. The team has a handicap in that the University has no sail boats and so members of the club pro vide their own. At present the club is in the process of buying a Lightning Class sloop for training purposes. Henry Cheves, John Dotterer, Gordon Small, Jr. and Robert Tin dal will compete in Charleston.
