A group of around 1,100 members, it collects historical records, letters, manuscripts and family diaries that pertain Uto the state's history. Claude H. Neuffer, English professor and recently elected president of the society, called the collection "the fin(.st collection of original sources dealing with South Caro lina that can be found anywhere in the world. "It's not an unusual thing to find professors from the great universities all over the country who come here to find original sources," he said. Members of the society are primarily persons who are interested in preserving the state's history properly, said Neuf fer. The documents and maiuscripts are also useful to under graduates who have to do term papers that require original research, he said. E. L. Inabinet, who directs the operation of the South Caroliniana, is secretary-treasurer of the society, a post he has held since 1958.

"The professor is allowed to take the students anywhere and may do anything he thinks will benefit them educationally or culturally,' said the Upward Bound spokes man. "The project takes children with potential for college or high school who are, however, not motivated. We attempt to get them into col. lege, and once they get in we no longer have any official connec tion although we do try to keep up with them," he said. "The national program Upward Bound is to be transferred to the Department of Health, Education and Welfare July 1. The program tries to go in and break the pov erty cycle," he said. "Nationally, Upward Bound re suits are pretty good. Eighty per cent of the students involved with the program go to college. They would not otherwise have gone tc college. In fact, it's a requirement that they lack the way to get int< college," he said. Once in school, 51 per cent of the students go back as sopho mores, as compared with the na tional average of 54 per cent, he said.

"Although it is a cause for a great deal of wvorry, it hasn't really become a major probldem. "In general if a university has reason to think that someone is a dlanger to other people it will get rid of him. Nonetheless, it isn't always easy to decide what is the best thing to do. There is the old; problem that the more strict the authorities are, the more anxious students are to cover up for some one." According to Campbell except at three universities there have been no student rebellions which "would seem at all serious in comparison to what has happened on many campuses here." Campbell, who says he likes Co luurbia "quite a lot," said that the education systems of the two coun tries are so different that it's hard to compare them.

On the other hand since high schools are so much more advanced than here, people have more data to help them decide before they go to college." The graduate system is also very different in England, according to Campbell. "On the whole there is less course work and more em phasis on the disertation. The P.Phil., the major research degree, depends virtually entirely on the dissertation." i1 Given Gernum by Peter Becker. USC his tory instructor.
