Uphold femininity To the Editor, Approximately two weeks ago a debate was held in Capstone on the issue" feminism versus femininity between a debating team from Scotland and one from USC. I felt that thp rtplwto uwc q t*/wi M gWM one overall, but it seemed that neither team specifically defined the terms they were discussing. They did not define what a woman is. Viewing a woman from nature's point of view as I do, I find that a woman is naturally the mother figure of the earth, while the man is the fatherly figure of the earth. Now we would have a great world if both parties stood up to be what they are supposed to be. Unfortunately this is not always the case. I would like to take time out here to eulogize or praise all women who are contributing to our society. It seems that they have to go through quite a bit, and I know that life is not all that easy for them basically. Therefore, I say let them do what they wish if they have the volition, determination, and ability, even to become president of our nation some day, as long as they maintain their femininity. However. I have found in several cases where some people, including some young ladies of today, try to be more than what they really are. Jose Duvall Journalism Sophomore & ? The U.

I i I Literary ma? by allocation To the Editor: . The future quality, if not the life, of USC's literary magazine, The Crucible, has been severely jeopardized by the student allocations committee's (SAC) refusal to grant adequate funds for its direction. Over the past few years, the quality of ml me ^ruciDie nas varied greatly. Perhaps as with no other publication, the quality of a small literary magazine is dependent on its editor. As an example, the spring 1977 Crucible may well be the best Crucible ever published. It will contain an expanded 48 pages, a wide variety of excellent prose, poetry, art and music and, for the first time in its history, will award prize money for the best entries. These improvements are not accidents. Thev are the result of the initiative and efforts of its editor, Elizabeth Albrecht. Besides having a masters degree in English, she is i i i "I it? 4- xj> 0? 4- JO- & xl> x}-s c r i r 1 jikLL crisemc -{X & -{X ->J -v? <>X & "v<-yl & "{X ? nurfnrwn vnnr j v m if |/|/f |/^ ussell House Ballroi lay, April 13, 8:00 / the music i vine of assorted cheeses it modest prices orary sounds presentc Ws h////jr &// //fu.

It is doubtful that a better, more competent editor could be found. The editors of The Gamecock and The Garnet and Black receive $450 a semester, me urucible editor receives $200 a semester. The work involved in all three efforts is not commensurate, but suffice it to say that The Crucible editor must organize and direct the staff, handle advertising, receive, catalogue and return over 200 submissions, and layout, take to the printer's, and distribute the magazine.
