state operated College of
Charleston, which has been offered
to the state.
Francis Marion State has asked
for $1.5 million in state funds
before the State Budget and
Control Board.
"This is not a 'guesstimate' of
what it will cost to run the school,"
said James A. Morris, State
. Commissioner of Higher
Education.
"Tt is made on the basis of what
they are doing now and what the
start-up cost will be."
Morris said that the University is
now spending $500,000 a year on the
Florence Regional Campus.
William C. Casper of the
University's regional campus staff

campus the University would lose
its oldest, largest and one of the
strongest of the regional cam
puses.

stantially reduce enrollment in the
regional campus system.

completion
By ELLIOT BORENSTEIN
If some night you're walking
between the Russell House and the
Engineering Building, and you see
a red pencil light beam overhead,
you're witnessing an advanced
experiment being conducted at
USC.
Norman Haskell, a senior who
has worked for Southern Bell for
six years is using the helium neon
continuous wave laser for sending
multi-channel TV signals through
the air.
Haskell started from scratch,
designing and building most of the
equipment himself. Expensive
equipment has been donated by
larger industrial companies who
are interestdd in furthering
research in this fiels.
The U.S. Navy as well as private
companies, such as Texas In
struments, have already contacted
Haskell about the use of his
theories of multiplex modulation.
Completion date is expected to
be in January.
