I seriously hope that your coverage of the election will include profiles on each of the candidates for each of the offices. Last spring, the honorable Frank DeLoache, editor of the Gamecock at that time, refused to include profiles. He said he thought it was a waste nf ennAA kiWtnttnA (IAMAA w?

AliV OVUVIVlIt body shall decide if a candidate's platform is unper form able. Because* the SG has done nothing for the student body (they've become a self-serving organization), I am concerned about candidates who are presently serving in some capacity of the SG. If a candidate can speak of previous experience in the SG as one of his qualifications, then the student body will be interested to know if that candidate has tried to do anything for the student body or if he spent his time serving himself.

As a boy in grade school in the early 60's I saw a film short at a movie theater. It cautioned about the f Qpf fhof lira Unrtf kvv ifiiui wv ntpi laiuu^ natural resources from the earth without returning anything and that someday we would run out. So it is clear that we have been receiving warnings for some time. It is clear that fossil fuels are on the way out. We need to support more programs that research other means of energy production. One such program is taking place at the USC Deparment of Engineering under Dr. Faust. Funded by a government contract, that program is developing cheaper, more efficient solar cells. Peter G.

While it is understandable the reasoning made by the proposers, they failed to go deep enough to ascertain all the facts. The proposal to help the energy crunch by ending the fall semester on Dec. 16 and to begin the spring semester on Jan. 19 will cause a loss of monetary support for students attending USC with veterans' benefits. Under current regulations we cannot have a break of more than 30 days. Inflation is a concern of USC President William H. Patterson hilt so arp tho efuHonfo His recommendation of increase in fees of $70 per year for in-state students and $208 for out-of-state students to help pay state employe pay raises is robbing Peter to pay Paul. Let the raises come from the state government!
