Letter NoDal% Dear Mr. Stepp: As a South Carolinian and a student at Davidson College I was looking foward to attending our game with your team on Feb. ii. I was dismayed to find that your athletic office had not sent the Davidson ticket office even a single ticket. Even after a con certed attempt to procure, tickets the Davidson office received only refusals. This stands in marked contrast to last year's- South Carolina Davidson game; played in the Charlotte Coliseum, thousands of South Carolina- fans attended with tickets sent to thi South Carolina ticket office for'sale. o console, and 3quipment, see ' music system wish, plus any o it.

The President announced that the newly passed- population controls would go into effect Im mediately. This would make It virtually Impossible for anybody to ! have more than two children. It Is hoped. that the population can be cut down to about four hundred million within the next decade. Fourteen years from now doesn't seem too far away.,But unless something is done by the present generation to control the population, this will be the situation which will probably face most of us. as well as our future generations. ridson The word is out that Columbia seeks to beme "The Basketball Capital" of country. Is this sort of' one-sldedqess the way that eminence is to be achieved? By excluding supporters of all teams that play yours? Questioning my friends from Carolina I find that they can't get into the games either, but thanks to friend Joe Usry a more equitable system for student ticket sales has been devised. So if visiting team supporters can't get into the games, and Carolina students can't get into the games, who can? Unfortunately, it appears that money and privilege decide who gets into the gas NDney from those -who hav wallets far fatter than any student's and privileges granted to peoplb like state legislators, who, to my way of thinking, have no more legitimate right to see the games than any Carolina student. In fact, it seems that somehow students ought to be able to see games in which THEIR team plays--that's actually how it started, you know, teams and games were for students, not for wealthy businessmen and state legislators. I heard on the news before Christmas that student govern ment senate at Carolina had passed a resolution asking the University to give priority to construction of a new law school, library and other academic needs before launching into construction of a new or expanded football stadium. Good luck. Money and privilege may well be against the students here too. For many years the University of South Carolina has been unable to achieve the excellence its Computers ... a Bright Future.

Now, it appears that the students themselves are going to try to do what these friends both inside and outside the University have been unable to do put first things first and leave the accessories for a later date. This time let's hope the much maligned "student power" wins over money and privilege. And, by the way, we'll be wat ching the game on TV. You may want to come up to Charlotte to watch it if they don't broadcast it in Columbia. DAVID SWEATT (Ed's note: Each visitino team to Ca'irdina. feshmen'ahd isity, Is allowed 25 seats. usually for players, coaches and relatives. Since Davidson's freshmen and varsity teams will be playing here, the school received .50 tickets from USC. According to Ralph Floyd, business manager for athletics, that is standard procedure for ACCe schools. Since USC and Davidson played in Charlotte last year. added Ticket Manager Ray Faircioth.

Herewith begins (and most likely ends) the Gamecock Awards for Excellence. To President Richard M. Nixon - the "I Don't Know How He Did It" Award for putting up with What's-his name all the way through the campaign and through a year in office. To Thomas F. Jones - the "Censor of the Year" Award for his quick action in aot allowing the readers of The Gamecock to be offended by their own words. ' To the girls of Carolina - the first "Where the Boys, Are" Award for their "lock" raid on the boys dorm. Good ' luck and, if at first you don't succeed, try, try again. To Student Government - the "We've Moved to the High Rent District" Award for finally getting offices com mensurate with their duties. When they get the power commensurate with their offices, they will receive the "Outstanding initiative Award." To the Athletic Department - the "Timely Event of the Year" Award for setting ticket distribution for Wednesday and announcing it Tuesday night. To Pete Pantsari - the "If You Want to Get Something Done Right, Do it Yourself" Award for his football cheerleading exploits. To the football tearn - the "Stuck in the Mud'' Award\ for their fine showing at the Peach Bowl despite adverse'\ conditions.

To the Law School - the "Athlete of the Year'' Award for their fantastic sweep around right end with their beautifully staged press conference. To SGA Constitutional Convention - the "Alfie" Award, because we're wondering what it's all about - why bother revising a constitution that doesn't say anything? To Gonzalo Leon - the "If You Can't Seat Them, Join Them" Award for eating Slater food with Slater officials while protesting the Siater Fobd Service. To the Green Street Methodist Church - the ''Per sistence Pays" Award for doing something all the students want to do - get out of the University.
