Our cheerleaders are certainly attractive and perform very well, but the cheers they do are reminiscent of the old high school days, definitely not representative of a big time university. The un believeable Two Bits - Four Bits cheer has got to be the oldest and most uninspiring of any cheer ever conceived. The V-i-c-t-o-r-y and C a-r-o-l-i-n-a cheers are also two of the most unoriginal cheers one could think of. With cheers like these, it is a wonder there is any student par ticipation at all when the cheerleaders go out on the floor. When Cfrolina goes to the ACC finals and hopefully the NCAA finals, the cheers better be of the high caliber that our basketball team will be. Otherwise, there will be some nijhki etibarrassed Gamecock s - As the ch s now, they* are strictly "bush league". And if student participation is wanted, the cheerleaders had better spend some time coming up with some original and imaginative cheers. ROBERT S. COX BRUCE V. PALADINO Cheers outdated Dear Mr. Wannamaker: I'm concerned about Mrs. Jamison's letter on sports events in the Feb. 13 Gamecock. I have witnessed a wild en thusiasm, arising in support of our talented team, at many a basketball game. Judging by this displayed potential, something seems amiss with "our leader's" Shocking I Dear Mr. Wannamaker: Freedom is a great thing to have. And not enough of us use our freedom. It is great that our campus is trying to progress into a new and wanted freedom with no curfew, beer sale possibilities, open house and the like. That is the way it should be. However, one day I was kind of shocked. I was sitting in my dorm studying on the bed when I looked up and out the window to ap preciate the weather. There, directly across from my dorm, was a completely nude girl standing at her window, holding her red flowered curtains open. I suppose she, too, was appreciating the weather. Unfortunately, for me, the window exposed her body from her head to her knees. Then she leaned clear out of the window to H NEW ZIGZAG SEWING M/ GUA RANTEE.

Isn't it possible that our cheerleaders' efforts do not compliment our team's per formance? Maybe our "spirit symbols" aren't even in the same league. Actually, it takes a maximum of self-control to prevent myself from cheering hysterically each time our crew goes into "Twobits, four bits"! You say the cheerleaders are embarrassed. How do you think we feel when other schools attend the games and are subject to such cheers! How can the at tending masses be motivated by such predictaole, outdated, monotonous high school cheers? Being an ex-cheerleader, I'm sure Mrs. Jamison more than likely used these same chants during her active duty years. C-A-R-0-L-I-N-A! That must have heavily taxed someone's imagination. Lay off? O.K.

Our Man Ho Why By ARTHUR HOPPE Columnist A century after the Civil War, the North and South are at long last reunited. A majority in both sections is vociferously against bussing pupils to integrated schools. Unfortunately, the courts are for it. The resultant crisis once again threatens to split our NAtion asunder - with the anti-bussing faction seceding from the American judicial system. Into the breach, as good fortune would have it, has leapt the noted sociologist, R. Owen Bastian. As Mr. Bastian so accurately points out, hardly anyone is against integration - at least publicly. What everyone is publicy and piously against is the concept of bussing the poor little children all the way across town to some distant school. The answer to the school bussing crisis, then, is school bussing. Or, as Mr. Bastian puts it: "Instead of bussing the kids to the school, we simply bus the school to the kids." protests Gamecock" for the printing of Mr. Farber's column and for its emergence from the thick shell of administration control. Well done. It's been a long time coming. I can only hope that articles equal merit will also find a place in "the student's paper". As for the warning, if anyone objects to the language, he must walk around in this world as a deaf mute. DAVID CHAMBERLAIN Let's turn on The Civil War I beg to see, Has very little interest in me. So why should I begin to wonder, About that which is buried six feet They had their war, they both fought well Then why must we still go through hell Man,it's over, dead, forgotteni and gone. So sit down grit and let's turn on. CHRIS TYNER uoted Capstone that I feel Capstone will not want to have this weekly open house. As AWS president, I have no idea what the women in other dorms feel on this matter. The feelings will be expressed on a survey that will be presented to the women in the residence halls soon. Only then can I speak for these women. If Mr. Derks wishes to quote me (or to quote anyone else), he should be correct. PEGGY HARLEY AWS PRESIDENT smoked pot? Vhat about at work? it? mur kid sister? not bus Mr. Bastian's ingenious solution envisions a one-room schoolhouse on the back of a flatbed truck. The design alone has immense appeal to all conservatives, who believe that the one-room schoolhouse, suitably equipped with McGuffey's Reader, was the high water mark in American education. The savings would be tremen dous. When you stop to think that there are approximately 1000 times as many children as schools, it's obviously far more economical to bus the school than the children. Best of all, the bussed school would achieve integration, which everyone says they're for, while maintaining neighborhood schools, which everyone also favors. For the bussed school would serve several neighborhoods each day. , It might start one morning in the ghetto, picking up black moppets at their doors, then procede gaily, school bell clanging, to a WASP neighborhood for a load of small white fry. The next day, it could reverse its route. This would give black children a chance to see white SA TICKETS AT: CAROLINA COLISEUM BOx OF & Warner Gifts. Siuter. William tisic. orangi Cayce . Fl.

This is equal opportunity at its finest. Every family would live just acros the sidewalk from an in tegrated school. Car pools would become a thing of the past. And instead of parents having to trudge off to school for PTA meetings, the school would come to them - thus providing time for longer PTA meetings. But every plan has its little drawbacks. This, of course, isn't the only solution to the crisis. The other was advanced at an anti-bussing rally in Nashville, Iowa, by the famed logician, Dr. Scranton Scrimshaw. He noted that every white in the audience was publicly dedicated to integration, neighborhood schools and preventing bussing. He, therefore, suggested that each of them move into a black neigh borhood - thereby achieving all three goals in one fell swoop. Dr. Scrimshaw was tarred, feathered and bussed to Decatur, Georgia, F.O.B. collect.
