Although our support was directed else where to where we thought the better man existed, we want to be the first to ex press our devotion to the cause of rebuild ing the destruction of the campaign and of forging the kind of student government of which all students can be proud. The task that lies ahead of you is per haps one of the most awesome ever faced by a student politician on this campus. It could end in triumph or humiliation for the entire student government. Since it is our common goal to make this government now made equltible by the new constitu tiona worthwhile student endeavor, how ever, let us no more mention failure; the result would be tragic. Let us in the future speak of degrees of success, and inas much as this is again our common goal, we offer our cooperation in making the degree of your success the highest. But the "cooperation" of a newspaper must never mean that we become the voice of the government. We believe that our first duty is to the students, even when student government must be placed in a LITTLE MAN 1 JcAtLEJ? Vol Itf, A)lSOtfTO RNP OUT THE EtS&J fPVUEH PrllN0 M YOIK. WORK.

Therefore, although we want to be the first to praise you and your government, we also want to be first to expose your blunders. For we represent the students to their government and the government to the students. The support you received in the elec tion was not only impressive ; it was over whelming. The large vote in your favor as well as the large total vote are indi cative of the respect you have gained in the minds of many of the students. You are starting your great year on the right foot, with the student body knowing and supporting you. We shall do our best, both editorially and personally, to unite the student body behind you, as their leader, and their gov ernment. We call for all students, no mat ter whom they supported in the election, to forget the tension and politicking of the campaign and rally behind this project, which in one year's trial, will be set on a course over the next decade. The task you face is tremendous, but the satisfaction you will gain from doing it well will make it well worth your while. We are looking forward to working with you. THE DAILY NEBRASKAN Frank Partsch It's The Little Things University of South Carolina GAMECOCK It's the little things that you remember . . . putting on your raincoat to go down and get a coke at 3 in the morning ... the nightly chore of putting out your trash cans after midnight ... the hours spent on a term paper . . .the sound-of rain hitting the roof of Currell as you try to take history notes ... the elevator in "L" that stops on every floor before taking you to yours ... the couch in the undergraduate library that's perfect for study naps. Yes, the little things . . . seeing the leaves on the tree in front of your dorm become green again . . . feeling the hard, moist earth beneath your feet as you trot tround Davis Field . . . meeting the same boy every other day coming out of French 22 as you go in . . . spending a half hour or so just reading the notices on the College Union bulletin board that you've read four times before . . . seeing the look of surprise and anticipation on the face of the girl you ask for a date. You remember ... the red marks on your English 11 themes ... the long walk from Barnwell to Wardlaw ... the fellow or girl on your hall who listens to your troubles ... the afternoons in the fall spent watching the Coquettes practice ... the hours wasted, perhaps, in the Gamecock Room or the Cockpit ... the "bull-session" on religion or sex or politics that lasted on into the night. Yes, you remember the little things. And as you re member these moments, these feelings, these sights you remember Carolina. And as these little things come to your memory, as part of your Carolina experience, you will keep them close and be grateful to Carolina for making them real; and you'll be glad you came.

That awful time of the year is here again. The lo cal soothsayers announced that all the signs indicate the time has come for the annual sacrifice to Apollo, the sun god. The high priests have been busily working so that the sacrificial grounds are in proper order. They have seen to it that the grass is neatly trimmed and all of last year's sun-bleached skeletons have been cart ed away. Other lesser priests have been chanting endless an cient prayers to coax Apol lo into the right mood for the great event. These prayers are usually accompanied by the sound of guitar music and mortals who attend the acts Pokorny sessions go through all sorts of wierd contortions, pre sumably for the sole pur pose of appeasing Apollo. The sacrifice itself is a rather joyous event. The victims walk out to meet their fate smiling and laugh ing. They carry transistor radios by the dozen, cartons of candy bars, and innumer able copies of "My Secret Passion" (for the girls ) and "Ultra Hot Rod" (for the guys). Now the inhuman part begins. The victims go to pre-assigned areas, boys to one and girls to another. Then they sprawl out on the grass. Because of their at tire, which leaves a sizable portion of exposed epider mis, Apollo immediately be gins taking his heavy toll. The sacrifice of virgin white skin protected for the last two seasons is on. t As the cheering throngs gather around to watch the festivities, one can almost hear the delightful crisping sound as skin turns to a form of leather. The sound is somewhat similar to a bowl of Rice Krispies. Many art students crowd around to pick up valuable first hand demonstrations of color shading. If one has an hour or two to spare, he can witness white change to a gorgeous shade of pink and then proceed to various shades of scarlet. Likewise, many vocal stu dents attend the annual parching. Seldom does one hear even a professional vo calist achieve such high notes as the ones that abound at the burning. Ko soprano can come close to matching the voice of a girl who has been lying in Apo lo's rays for two hours and then has her back slapped. Not only do the victims run the risk of skin toasting, but they also risk addition al dangers that lurk on the sacrificial grounds. Dangers' like having a 300 pounder plant his cleats in one's cherry pink ba :k, as he pur sues a football pass. Or if one raises his head higher than the forbidden limit (two feet), the cnances are good that one will get a hot frisbee right in the mouth. It is not uncommon to see a victim or two get put out of his misery by a flying tennis racket either. Perhaps the populace will awaken and realize that this age old practice of bar baric sacrifice is useless and allow it to fade into ob livion. After all, Apollo con tinues to make the season unbearable for the pursuit of academic interests. Daily Nebraskan Subscription rates R Nt sinter or 19 ptr jmt.
