Refrigerators-for-students pro
ponents many cross some dire,
ice straits in their drive to have
their plans adopted by ad
ministrative officials here.
Jack Brawley, president of the
Men's Towers government, said
Monday that six students will meet
with university representatives at
5 p.m. at the Pendleton Building.
Outlining the progress of the
much-disputed matter, a program
which was originally introduced
during last spring, Brawley said:
"The business affairs people
rejected it then because they just
didn't want to fool with it."
"Then this year," he continued.
"without letting us know, they
began to sign people up for the
units." Rental is $20 per semester.

sequently circulated a warning to
residents of the six building
complex which said that the
contract for the distribution and
rental of the machines was "un
clear."
"The contract" the president
noted, "did not allow students to
keep medicine in the refrigerators
and we wanted to change that."
"We checked with the infirmary
doctor. He told us that diabetics on
campus are not required to go
through the infirmary for their
daily shots," he explained.
"They could keep their medicine
in these units," he added.
lie also explained that the
contract did not stipulate con
ditions for reparation a unit

"We want that in there too. It
would mean that students would

The team traveled to Georgia

also presented demonstrations at
Port Jackson, Dreher High School
and C.A. Johnson High School.
Meets planned for this -year
include a tri-meet at USC with
Furman and Winthrop on March

continued.
Earlier, assistant vice president
for business affairs George Fit
zgerald had told of additional costs
which the agency supervising the
refrigerators might incur: they
included such things as summer
storage and security.
Yet, says Brawley, "there is a
profit.. .despite claims" to the
contrary.
He said Epps TV and
Refrigerator Rentals, the firm
which would supply the units on a
rental-consignment basis con
curred that profit could be made
from the subletting of the units.
As for administrative in
timations that the electric bill
inc'ement due to the units'
operation would be prohibitive.
Brawley claimed that the increase
would be insignificant.
Said he. "It costs about 5 cents a
month to operate one of the
refrigerators.. .and the more
electricity the the less it pays" per
unit of power, he contended.
"Upkeep on these things is
nominal." he opined.

The University Board of
Publications voted Monday to
reaffirm the statement in the
student rules book which says "the
student press should be free of
censorship and advance approval
of eopy and its editors and
managers should be free to
develop their own editorial policies
and news coverage."
The board took the action after a
controversy over an attempt to
publish a four-letter word in The
Gamecock last week.
The vote was 4-2, with two of the
student members dissenting. The
board is composed of four students
and three faculty members.
Before the vote, Chuck Whitney
of Clemson, a student on the
committee, said, "It seems to me

By TY KELLEY

Approximately 200 USC couples
and families are living in public
housing projects throughout
Columbia this year. A majority of
them reside at Hendly Homes just
off Rosewood Dr.
Dr. John H. Chase, chief ad
ministrator for the Columbia
Housing Authority, stressed that
Carolina students do not displace
or deprive local needy families of
housing.
"Each application we receive for
one of our six low-rent public
housing projects is given equal
consideration and placed in a
certain category on our waiting
lists", he said.
Low income families seeking
public housing are classified as
presently living in sub-standard
dwellings within the city or do not
have any housing at all. This
category would include families
moving into the Columbia area
from throughout Richland County.
Veterans and elderly and persons
who have been displaced are also
eligible.

made recently by S.C. Republican
Sen. Strom Thurmond. The Club
passed a resolution expressing
disappointment in Lewis last night
by a 12-6 vote.
Thurmond, in response to a
recent story in "Life" magazine,
has charged that certain S.C.
Democrats aided "Life" in
gathering information regarding
payments made by the state to
Thurmond for land holdings.
The resolution calls Thurmond's
statement "a cynical attempt to
div'ert attention from himself after
being exposed in an article in
"Life" magazine."
It said, "Whereas. Democratic
Party Chairman Crosby Lewis did
not attack Sen. Thurmond's
charges on the Democrats, but
instead aligned himself with Sen.
Thurmond, stating he saw nothing

Dr. Chase stated, "The
Columbia Housing Authority has
been in existence for some 35
years and is proud to have served
Carolina students since 1952. We
feel we are playing a very im
portant role in the students' efforts
to achieve a college education.
Without our aid many couples
could not carry the financial
burden of both tuition and
housing."
Columbia Housing Authority
provides six low rent housing
projects consisting of over 1,400
apartments for the needy. "We
offer excellent accommodations at
"shelter rent rates." Monthly rent
is as low as $24, which includes
utilities for a one bedroom
apartment," Dr. Chase pointed
out.
He added that the Columbia
Housing Authority does have a
waiting list, but assured that the
turnover rate is quite rapid. "This
is a mobile generation we are
living in. One out of every five
families moves at least once a
year. Our turnover is the greatest
during the summer when the
students graduate either in June
or during the summer school
session, Dr. Chase said.
