But, how many of us stop even for a mo ment to find out exactly what that "mess of metal" in our pathway is there for? How many of us simply walk around the rock or statue without really realizing that it is there? Our campus is studded with many beautiful monuments. They are not on campus just to be in the way. Each one has a reason for being; each one has a purpose. Surely every student has seen the World War Memorial on the corner of l'ondleton and Sumter. This building is a monument "dedicated to the men and women of South Carolina who offered their lives in the winning of the war." Walking through the big horse shoe. one cannot help but notice the large stone statue that reigns supreme in the middle walkways. This is Maxey Monument, named after the first president of the University. Our newest monument is found in the shadow of Wardlaw College. "The Torch Bearer," presented this year by Anna Huntington, is a magnificent statue which adds much in the way of artistic cul ture to our campus. Mc K issick Library shields several traditional monuments. The sun--(ial, surrounded by shrubs, was mounted by the O.D.K. in 1927. Anyone skilled in time tell ing, sun-dial style, should take advantage of our asset. Others will simplly be interestedi in seeing the intricate stone. The tree dedicated to General Robert E. Lee is also found near McKissick. The large Magnolia, ma rked by a small plaque, was presented by the Columbia Chapter When you can't afford to be dull, sharpen your wits with NoDoz N'oDoz Keep Alert Tablets fight off the hazy, lazy feelings of mental sluggishness.

A "faithful index to the ambi tions and fortunes of the state" can be found printed on plaques in front of the big horseshoe and beside the Administration build ing. These historically detailed signs were erected in 1938 by the Columbia Sesquicentennial Com mission of 19:36. The large stone in front of Davis College was not placed there in honor of the Citadel Bulldogs as one may think. Instead, it is dedi eated to the memory of the stu dents and alumni of USC who (lied on the Mexican border and in the first World War. It bears a quotation from Robert E. Lee that each student should read and think about: "There is a true glory and a true honor; The glory of dutY done, the honor of integrity of principhc." The campus of USC has a wealth of monuments - monu ments that retell our history, montuments that contain our heri tage. )on't walk around that statue, look at it. LoLok at it and learn.

TOWER Apartmeu Interestin, By JANEAN MANN Staff Writer Have you ever eaten enchilada soup? If you say that you don't think there is such a thing as enchilada soup, you're right! At least there's not supposed to be. With a record number of USC students living in apartments - some for the first time - the un heard-of sometimes becomes the accepted, however. For many of the male off campus dwellers, as well as for some females, cooking meals can hecome iquite an interesting ex perience. Take one enterprising graduate student, for example. After having finally discovered, after a week's time, that there is a pilot light in his gas stove, he proceeded to the nearest grocery to buy food. A can of enchiladas eaught his eye, so he decided to buy it. Assuming that one prepares 1nchiladas like many other canned foods, the collegian dumped the food into a pot of water. Voila, MnCIhilada soup, no supper, and a mess for the garbage can. Cooking, though, is not the only h,e noire -f many apartment liv ing USCers. The "wildlife" com mon to many flats near campus also provides little diversifications from the daily routine of studies. In one Green St. apartment, three Carolina men bounded into their new accommodations only to he greeted by a veritable army of mice who refused to yield to the he likes be Old Spice. dJ Spice .. . e lotion for on ... she's ..25 & 2.00 ray It Is :J Spice tcivin ~)r ,Educati< "invaders." Armed with cheese and mouse traps, the trio soon re duced its "pet" population and claimed a mouse-catching record -- nine mice in nine hours. Although many students be lieved their apartments to be "fur nished" some were in for a few surprises. A passing glance at some of the furnishings of various apartments included: one bed - without springs; numerous three legged or backless chairs; a lack of heat or heating equipment - not much of a problem now, but wait till it gets colder; a definite lack of light bulbs; and lopsided tables which require a knee under The .WIl OCtC Inter are % o-4e es UCIN hon u ~obouldr- qiv E Tower Yr.0 xciing, i)nal, Fun them to support the weight of eating utensils. Quiet, for studying purposes, prevails at many of these resi dences. There are, however, a few exceptions. On Friday and Satur day nights apartments near the Woman's Club have a tendency to tremble from the nearby clamor. Every now and then the cantanker ous old refrigerator e m i t s a frightening groan, the people up stairs practice their bowling, or someone rings the doorbell at 3 a.m. If nothing else, apartment living, for some Carolina students is a new and enlightening experience.
