Student Int(
Dear Mr. Elliott:
In regard to Mr. Daun Van Ee's
lettee, we would like to expres our
hearty approval and agreement with
the ideas he presented in last week's
evI issue of The famncock. It is true
that many student elections are popu.
larity contests, and nany of the of.
fices to which students are ejected
are implrtant in name only, having
no significant function in the student
government. From the fact that so
few students vote, one can plainly see
that a lack of meaningful conflicts
and issues in the student elections re
suits In an apathetic attitude.
While we cannot wholly agree
with Mr. Van Ee's idea concerning
office appointments, we do feel
that some revisement is in order.
Mr. Van Ee suggested that in cases
p where the president is unable to
make the appointment, the student
tt senate should be able to perform
tr the act. However, we suggest that
if the office is vital enough to
exist, then the students be allowed
to vote directly.
The solution as we view it, appears
to he reducing unimportant offices

Land Acquisi
D)ear Mr. Elliott:
How hamy USC students are aware
of or care about tie unt n traged
entailed in the acquiring of the land
for the proposed Memorial hal?
Two articles in The Sate news
paper dealing with the razing of
the slums on this land completely
ignored the fate of those families
whose "h o im e s" were being de
stroyedl. No mention was made of
the hardship encountered by these
families, most of whom earn less
thtan $1,500 at year, or of the prob
ems of relocation of the crippled.
the blind, or the aged.

In the case of urban renewal the
city i'e obligated by law to find ade-4
quute housing for the families being
displacd and must compensate such
families for the inconvenience of
moving. nfortunately because p SA
acquired the land in qution as a
private agent such laws do not legally
apply; however, the moral applicabil

It is a fitting sentiment to build
a h a 1 1 memorializing the living.
However, what kind of memorial is
it when its foundations rest upon
the defensles suffering of a help
less people ? Perhaps a g r e a t e r
memorial would be for USC stu- ' f,
dents, faculty and administration
to make a living testament in ae

in the affairs of their campus,

Changes
Dear Mr. Elliott:
Being the only representative of
Turkey at USC, I believe it is my
privilege and duty to write about her
and try to answer the questions and
misunderstandings I was faced with
a i t c e arriving two months ago in
South Carolina, and the U.S.A.
There are four different groups
of p e o p l e living in the Middle
East: Arabs, Jews, Persians and
Turks. Each group, although in
fluenced by each other to a large
degree, have distinct cultural pat
terns and therefore they should all
be studied from this point of view.
Except for the Jews, the other
three groups have the same reli
gion and have shared almost the
same history until the end of World
War I. After the war, the spread
of the ideas of nationalism started
the self-consciousness and
awakened the national identities of
these peoples.
With Turks, this started with the
War of Independence from 1918 to
1923 and continued with the reform,
of Mu_stafa Kemal and is still in
evolution under the light of the re
rent political and ecuinomial de
velopments in toxiay"'s world.
Chivalry
Isn't Dead
)ear Mr. Elliott:
Before coming to USC, I had al
vays heard the engrossment of l'SC
tudents in their own lives and activi
ies was so far advanced that thev
vould not help "a little old lady in
istress."
As of today, I would like to per
onally refute that statement.
Recently, I was the victini of a fall
roi one flight of stairs in Barnwell
ollege. These so called "engrossed"
eople - students, professors, and
oficeman - took time from their
usy schedules to help a nobody in
istress like me, for which I am ex.
ernely grateful.

Turkey, today has a completely
secularized educational s y s t e m
which ,bolished the use of Arabic
scripture 38 years ago. The lan
guage spoken is Turkish and is
comnpletely different from Arabic.
This and the other scxial reforms
of the same period have changed
many aspects of Turkey and the
Turks. There are no 1 o n g e r
"Harems" and women no longer
use veils and other articles to cover
their faces. The society is laic
(non - clerical) and preaching in
order to convert people and to
spread any religion is against the
law. "Seriat." the canon law has
been replaced by modern law, pre
pared in the light of Swis vil
and Italian criminal laws. The
constitution gives every citizen the
right to express his ideas freely,
whether left or right. with the ox
j ception of extreme element, at both
ends of the political spectrum.
