SPRING TEA The USC Women's Auxiliary will hold its spring tea today at 3:30 p.m. in Mayfields, the home of USC Press Prints Book On Gadsden University of S o u t h Carolina P r e s s has just published "The Writings of Christorphor Gadsden, 1746-1805," edited by Prof. Richard -Walsh of Georgetown University, Washington, D. C. Dr. Walsh searched for more than seven years for obscure docu ments, letters, papers, and other memorabilia. Skillful editing of the papers was complicated by the prolific writings of the Charles. tonian who fired off letters and delivered lengthy articles in de fense of any cause which interested him. Gadsden, one of South Carolina's leaders in the Revolutionary period, helped give form to the political thinking of the period. He was a builder of his state and the nation. He used his own funds to print and circulate propaganda materials against the British. The book deals with politics on both the national and local levels during the critical years of the nation's coming into being, and reveals Gadsden's great power of persuasion. Dr. Walsh, editor of the book, is professor of American History at Georgetown University. His first book, "Charleston's Sons of Liberty," was also published by the University Press. Educated at the College of Charleston and Syracuse Univer sity, Dr. Walsh earned the Ph.L). degree at the University of South , Carolina. EU S yFacts Mrs. Irving F. Belser, 3913 Kil bourne Rd.

Levy, a University of South Carolina professor, believes. Dr. Levy said, in a speech at Wofford College in Spartanburg at a statewide initiation of Sigma Delta Pi, an honor society for stu dents of Spanish. "It seems that we (in South Carolina) are living in a vicious circle in which everyone realizes or pretends to realize the neces sity of improving and propagating the teaching of languages, espec ially Spanish, but hardly anything is being done to meet the need." Lack of funds, lack of teachers, and lack of student interest are some of the reasons given for fail ing to improve the teaching of languages, Dr. L e v y said. Asst. Prof. Levy, who teaches Spanish in the USC Department of Foreign Languages and Literatures, said the importance of teaching the Spanish language, literature and customs is related to "our need l to communicate with our sister na tions in the hemisphere." less than you t 5% is a real ide, but make Nhere it will ,yet remain ings and loan rity Federal is to save with y. my away from mnts until you equal to six pabout finan-. action.

Languages tant Today He said there is "a shortage of people qualified in Spanish in many types of employment" in the United States and abroad. Social work is an example. Moreover, Dr. Levy said, learn ing a foreign language can be helpful to students in many other ways, before and after graduation wherever they may eventually lo nate. South Carolina "has hardly par ticipated at all in the Peace Corps r in other activities that need p e o p 1 e with language qualifica tions," Dr. Levy said. le also believes that require ments for teaching languages in high schools should be upgraded and -that examinations for foreign teaching certificate should include a section for the specified langage specialization Stackinan's Article Appears In March Issue Of Review "Industrial supervisors who need most to improve their leadership skills just aren't getting the word," is the contention of Harvey A. Stackman, research economist at the University in a recent article in the March issue of USC's Busi ness and Economic Review. In the article titled "Leadership Psychology and Motivation," Stack man brushes aside "leadership psy chology" and "current research" by saying "every successful leader since Moses" has known what it takes to qualify as an effective leader. He points out that "effective leadership is not an inborn art, it is a skill which can be learned. "A sincere commitment to the basic principles is essential for effective performance."
