The stadium was erected in response to a growing de mand for a place f> r athletic events of all kinds and to help make Charles ton more attractive in the booking of sports. As one reads of the new Charleston achievement, the need for improved athletic facilities at Presbyterian col lege are at once recognized. The ath letic field, well situated and adequate in size, needs to be supplied with first-class seating facilities and a sub- * stantial and attractive fence. Such improvements are expensive, and yet they are badly needs at P. C, just at present.

The question of parking conngestion has about reached the point where the city needs new regulations and a specified time limit placed on the parking of cars in the business sec tion. Many citizens drive their cars to the square in the early morning and leave them parked all day, and this practice should stop out of considera tion for others. If the business meh of the city would lend their cooperation, a decid ed step towards giving the desired re lief would be accomplished. Merchants and clerks should walk to their work and leave their cars at home in order to leave parking space on the streets for the convenience of country people and strangers coming to town.
