Correction: In the Monday, April 23 issue of the Gamecock the name of Dixon Lee was mis takenly left off his letter to the editor. TO THE EDITOR: I have read the letter to. the eaitor by Frank BowerMaan con cerning the movie 'SOLENT GREEN'. I too would like to make few comments about the movie and its implications. C We as college students have a responsibility to ourselves, our children and our grandchil dren. I do not make this state ment lightly, or with any Uto pian overtones. I mean in terms of actual reality. Right now, we are beginning to see the first signs of a bleak future: gasoline shortages and rationing, rising food costs, overpopulation, pol lution and an unrestrained and climing crime rate. Right now maybe it doesn't seem so bad, well baybe that is right ...but what about the future? What's all the noise O about you say? Have you seen what the stark reality may be by the year 2022 A. D. in the movie 'SOLENT GREEN'? After seeing that movie, I shud der at its implications-what man will make of his cities, his society, and worst of all human ity itself. It's really a fearful thought. This is why I say we have a responsibility here and now -we must stop this destruction of nature so we won't have a bleak future to look foreward to, a future without any hope, sr 0awberr SPo"e Av.

DAVE HANKO STUDENT ASSISTANT COMPUTER SERVICES DEPARTMENT TO THE EDITOR: I would like to add my support to the letter (April 19, (Gamecock) critizing the Edu cation Dept. (Wardlaw). I will graduate in Dec. 1973 and I actually fear the day that I have to take the National Teacher's Examination. (NTE). I fear it because I honestly don't think I've learned enough in my education courses to waste the money thaking the NTExam. Whoever wrote the letter right; where are many who feel their time and money are being wasted. NAME WITHHELD TO THE EDITOR: Carolina should award Dixon Lee for his expert avoidance of the issues at hand concerning the creation of a campus food store. Your attempted letter was followed by no name (probably a fault of THE GAMECOCK), but just the same, Dixon, your logic is as elusive to us as your identity. I hid already pointed out that Slater (the real name of what you call University Dining Ser vice) is guaranteed a monopoly FORMAl Take a Knock-out to the next formal Take an After Six. 50 styles to choose from Now that it's formal time,R Its time to visit us at... SHIARPE'S MAKE YOUR RESERVATION 3 CONVENIENT LOCATIONS: Five Points Forest Drive Dutch Square 3rs To The E on campus, so repeating it doesn't get you off the hook. You still refuse to reveal what "special interests for the store" you represent. You voiced no regrets that Slater "get first crack" at the store. Instead, you use this as your defense. Using your logic, one could drop a safe from the roof of a 42-story building onto an unsus pecting crowd below, and say, "Don't blame me, gravity gets first grab at it!" EDWARD C. FENNELL TO THE EDITOR: I am writing this letter in praise of the party that was given last week-end by the Latin-American students. Not only was the food good but the enterainment was a refreshing change from the loudly mediocre to poor rock groups which we have all heard ad nauseum. It sems that the definition of a pary is a little beer and a lot of noise. In this case there was plenty of beer and the enterain ment was quiet and appealing. I had the best time I have ever had at a university sanctioned party. Hostess, Maggie Mar tin, had the evening's events well orginized. Certain forms of Spanish dancing were demonstrated by some of the girls but a somewhat inebriated but indominabel Pepe stole the show with his Mexican dancing. The only thing wrong is that there were only around one hundred people there. The. party was being given to raise TIME Mef ' mes edns &\e ei' as os.Ce Renal& Sle ditor noney for the Manguan wh arthquake victims and three kundred people were expected o show up.
