Pa USC Begins For Outstan Each year, more than 100 South Carolina high school students are named N a t i o n a I Merit Scholar semi-finalists - one of the highest academic honors accorded to stu dents on a nationwide basis. As a result of a recent study by the University of South Carolina which showed that an increasing number (58 per cent) of National Merit semi-finalists are choosing out-of-state colleges, the University has begun a comprehensive pro gram to attract more outstanding high school graduates to its cam pus. UISC's recruitment campaign for superior students consists of four programs, the first being a special Merit Scholar Day which includes visits to honors classes, a campus tour, talks with University officials, department advisers and student leaders and gift copies of Jniver Do you look smash ing in sunglasses?W Do you think all sports cars should have wide-oval tires, bucket seats, carpeting, wood grain styled dash and a magical space-saver spare?

Another of the programs to identify potential USC scholars is the maintaining of an updated list >f applicants who rank in the top quarter of their high school grad uating class and who score at least 1,100 points on the College Board Scholastic Aptitude Test. A thlid aspect of USC's recruit ment campaign is its regular par ticipation each year in "c o 1 1 e g e dlay" programs held in many South Carolina high schools. University representatives talk with students and their parents about course of ferings, the Honors Program and available scholarship aid and then compile lists of outstanding pros pects to receive application blanks and additional informational ma terials.

Mark Archer, provisional presi dent of the new Gamecock Party, says the party founders feel stu dent government has not b e e n meeting the needs of the students of Carolina. The party will in crease government effectiveness by endorsing qualified candidates who would best represent the The members of the party feel that m o r e responsible elections based on achievement and capabil ity of the candidates would assure more equitable representation for those not affiliated with the gov ernment and assist the student gov ernment in the ef fective and responsible performance of its duties under its constitution. Under the constitution, member ship in the Gamecock Party is open to any student at the University who endorses the objectives of the party; students of any or no po litical inclination are invited to join. Other provisional officers are Dick Goldie, vice president; Harrie Clarkson, secretary; and J i m m y Wannamaker, treasurer. Donald L. Fowler, professor in the Bureau of Governmental Affairs, is adviser. Students will be notified by poster of the time and place of the next meeting of the Gamecock Party.
