They feel Th Gamecock slanttsT news storie to correspond with its editoris policies, and formulates it editorials with little regard for th feeling of most students. To consider these opinions, let u look first at the paper's editoris .policies.' These are formed by the editor in-chief. He is free to consult witl anyone. Usually he discussei matters with staff members, bu he Is under no obligation to yield t their views. In the final analysis editorials are his property. Signed columns don'l necessarily reflect the editorl' opinion. They should be fair, anc several sides should bf represented. They should contair bot criticism and praise. But what gladdened me most about Your note was its defensive tone. It sounds as though you think most of us citizens still resent our gnvernment bothering us with a lot of damn fool questions.

TON SAN anmeeS fby CARL STE Associate Edit A surveyet the pastAve Issues I The Gamqcock reveals th followin'an the editorial page, k signed columns and editorW there were six goeeally con S plimentary, 16 crItical, and two I M between. A similar st of fiv 0 cosecutive Issues of Stal showed nine positive editorials, I critical and 4 in between. The point is that criticism an praise both exist, although in 'T Gamecock's case there perhaps I too little praise. This is weakness, many persons fee which should be corrected. In substance, however, bot positive and negative sides exisl In tone, The Gamecock sometime tends to be arrogant and abrasiv4 This is not good journalisni Feelings, sensibilities and al titudes should be considered. Criticism ..can, of course, b presented positively. This is th mark of a good editorial: it is on which pinpoints a problem whil offering a positive solution. It ca do so without being intemperate o obnoxious. Perhaps Th Gamecock should try harder to d so. From a news standpoint, Th Gamecock fares better. On th same five issues, it ran 31 positiv, stories on page one, sevei negative. The five issues of Th State, on the other hand, showed I negative front page stories, 1 positive. Although this survey wa crudely done, The Gamecock-an *good news"--fared better on th news side. Perhaps this is how things shoul go.

The possibility exists that no student body proesident has ever stood up to the Board of Trustees in the past," Magner said. He added, "I welcome criticism from all areas of the Carolina Community because the only way to establish a meaningful dialogue is by open confrontation of ideas." ns ER IS PH AMPTON I hampton College are ctively support and participate ffort which seeks to Improve vobbly world. ton, with its delightful summer untless opportunities for fInvolvement, too ..,. like . .. golf ..,. theatres .. . nd other activities which make lym for what summer Ibout. r . . . be where It Is. ripton College.

But It is touch more importanit for them to emphasize the news. The Gamecock, then, can be criticized as too negative editorially and not aggressive and interesting enough from a neys standpoint. On the other hand, it can be praised for editorial courage, for pinpointing numerous problems ahd for seeking the truth, no matter how unpopular it is. The job of the newspaper is a tough one. There is much room for failure. In his letter, President Knobel has called attention to several widely held grivenaces and prd'blems. Some are excusable, some not, but all need solving. And pointing them out and recognizing them is the first step toward solving them.
