In a general letter to all students,
Student Government President
Mike Spears warned that those
serving as student marshals are no
longer sanctioned by the ad
ministration. faculty or Student
Government.
Addressing the marshals, Spears
said, "The job many of you have
done deserves thanks but some
have added to the confusion which
already exists."
He stressed that the police and
National Guard have stated that
they will not recognize any student
marshal as a bona fide law of
ficer and that those who violate the
curfew in any way will be arrested.
He went on to sympathize with
students who have been gassed and
clubbed even though not sym
pathetic with violent protestors.
Much of the tension has been
caused by the presence of the
guard. he added, but the governor
cannot do Anything about it until
violence has been ended. He closed
by urging students to stay in their
rooms, keep out of qny crowd and
avoid any type of confrontation
with law officials.

The arrest of two English
graduate students last Thursday in
the Russell House has caused a
changeover in instructors of three
English 102 classes with little more
than a week left before exams

Dr. John L. Kimmey explained
that students need not be con

equitably on cases dealing with the

But when the subject of

student, or the student's family,
would have to bear more of the
-expenses. And when he is through
college, the family resources are
more likely to be used to help his
brothers and sisters with their
college education.
Figg also noted that new
priorities on federal student loans
make it difficult for the law student
to secure them.
"I am convinced that revolving
loan funds operating much like the
National Defense Student Loan are
going to be necessary to provide
assistance for students of ordinary
means seeking a legal education in
the near future," the dean said.

treatment of students in the

Law was a May 11 testimonial
dinner honoring Figg held at
Carolina Coliseum.
Sponsored by the State Bar, S. C.
Bar Association and the USC
Student Bar Association, the
dinner was a $25-a-plate affair. Net
proceeds go toward the loan fund.
Figg became dean at USC in
1959. and it has been announced
that he will be succeeded in August
of this year by Robert W. Foster,
who has been teaching at the
school for eight years.
As a long-time observer and
practitioner of law and politics
Figg says the rejection by the
Senate of Clement Haynsworth and
G. Harrold Carswell as nominees
to the U. S. Supreme Court had
little or nothing to do with their
abilities.
"Many of the votes cast against
them must have been for political
reasons," he said. "Some senators
undoubtedly had the idea that both
were nominated as part of some
'southern strategy'. So they
figured if the nomination were
political, they could be political in
their votes. This unfairly made
political tennis balls of Judges
Haynsworth and Carswell."
Figg said he thinks the effects of
the defeats are not passed on to the
nominees. "The usefulness as
judges of the refused nominees is
not impaired," the dean said.
Carrying the point of regional
representation on the high court
further. Figg said this country has
many regions and regional in
terests, a fact not always taken
into account in the appointment of
the nine Supreme Court justices.
He has proposed that the time
has come when., by constitutional
amendment,the base of the court in
constitutional cases be broadened
by providing for a constitutional
court en banc, consisting of the
nine justices and the chief judges
of the 10 circuit courts of appeals,
which would assemble on the call
of the minority of the court. This
would give every part of the
country a voice in current con
stitutional interpretation, and Figg
believes it would tend to increase
public acceptance of the court's
decisions on great controversial
issues.
Figg once served as a judge
himself, having been a special
Circuit Judge for South Carolina in
1957.
A graduate of the Columbia
University Law School in 1922, he
practiced law in Charleston from
then until 1959. He also served in
the G;eneral Assembly 1932-34 and
as solicitor for the Ninth Judicial
Circuit 1935-47.
F'%gg drafted the legislation that
created the S.C. State Ports
Authority in 1942 and served as
general counsel for the authority
t rom it s beginning.
lHe was a member of the
American Bar Association's Ad
visory Committee on Fair Trial
and Free Press which produced
the well-known Reardon Report
that proposed guidlines and
restrictions for court reporting.
