Rhodes Sc Carolina I Few scholars have the honor of winning a Rhodes Scholarship to Oxford and be among those who' taste not only the ,eademic life of the age-old Oxford but also the English waty of life and the warm friendships gathered from various nationalities who are recipients of the scholarship. Mr. Richard A. Rempel, profes sor of the history department, was among the e l e y e n men selected from Canada in 1959 as a Rhodes Scholar recipient. He is a native of Sasakatchewan. Canada. F r o m his experiences in the British Isles and America he states that the Rhodes Scholar has given to Anericans a profounder under standing of English and Ameri cans. Although sonie American re cipients find the problems of na tionality and culture too great for adjustment; t h e scholarship and opportunities of world knowledge are great for Anglo-American re lations.

The trust USC Geograpt Article On Co Just released in the October is sue of USC's Business and Eco nomic Review is an article written by two members of the Depart ment of Geography, James R. Fus sell and Dr. Richard G. Silvernail, entitled "The Impact of Recreation on Coastal South Carolina." "Tourism is important," t h e geographers agree, "but little is known of who the tourists are, where they come from, and what their impact on an area is." They decided to remedy this by study ing the permanent and transient people of two South C a r o i n a coastal areas, Myrtle Beach and Hilton Head. In 30 years the population of the state's coast has grown 98 per cent, more than three times the rate of increase for the re mainder of South Carolina.

Twice as many girls as boys visited the beaches. Rhodes Scholar Prof. Hiehard A.
