University coeds seem to be almost
unanimous in approving administra
tive plans for dissolving Coordinate
campus.
In a poll conducted by The Red
and Black, 33 coeds representing a
cross section of the campus agree
that the idea was a good one.
Typical answers follow:
Barbara Lee, Atlanta, freshman
home economics student: “I think
it’s wonderful! I’m glad of it!”
Dianne Brantley, Atlanta, fresh
man psychology major: “I think it’s
a good idea because I think there’ll
be a lot mo^e unity and the students
will get to* know each other better.
Also, it’ll be easier to get around to
classes. It’ll seem like one school In
stead of two.”
Jan Eberhardt, Valdosta, freshman
arts and sciences major: "I think it
will give 'the school more spirit be
cause out here we feel like we're
in a separate school. Up there we’ll
feel more like one.”
Clair Hardwick, Atlanta, sopho-
An exhibition <>r recent pninilngs by l^uimr Dodd (above), art de
partment bead, will be on display today through Tuesday in the Fine
Arts Gallery. The art department today issued an invitation to Univer
sity students to inspect the famous artist's works. The gallery will be
open daily from It a. in. until 5 p, in. anti Sunday from 8 p. m. to O
p. ni. Dodd, whose works are nationally famous, is gearing plans
through the Art Student’s League for the annual Christmas art sale.
The sale is s|mnsorcd annually to accumulate funds for tills organiza
tion anti for scholarships. Art students collect drawings, paintings, and
other contributions which are auctioned. One-third of the proceeds are
earmarked for tile league and the remainder of tile sale goes to the
contributor.
Journalism Students
Reveal Experience
Many of today’s journalism stu
dents have already had practical ex
perience or are combining such with
their University study.
This was revealed in an informal
survey made in an introductory
course being taught this fall by Dean
John E. Drewry, Journalism school.
In a class of 38 students, com
posed of freshmen and junior trans
fers from other institutions, 18 re
ported previous journalistic experi
ence on the professional level. Seven
had worked in the newspaper field—
daily and weekly. Seven had had
radio experience. One of these had
been director of a radio show. Two
are news photographers. One has
been connected with an advertising
agency. And one is a successful free
lance magazine contributor.
more education major: “I think it’ll
make the University more together,
more like a University. There seems
hardly any linkage with the Uni
versity from out here."
Corinna Hotchkiss, Blacksburg,
Va., senior music major:'“I think it’s
a good thing because when I was
stuck off over there I didn't feel like
I was part of the school and now I
feel like I know everybody.”
Colleen Waddell, Bremen, junior
education major: “I think it will be
a good thing because the girls could
walk to and from school a lot easier
and it would help their morale. Be
sides, the campus is much prettier
and more interesting and all on Main
Campus.”
Dissolving Coordinate campus is
part of a long-range plan for coordi
nating overlapping teaching facilities
and for improving housing. The cam
pus is scheduled to be vacated by fall
of 1952.

Library Plans Historical Division
Plans were being laid today by
University library officials to build
a reserve of historical materials
which will comprise a special divi
sion of the new Ilah Dunlap Little
Memorial Library under construction.
Dr. W. P. Kellam, director of li
braries, said little material Is cur
rently on hand, but the library staff
is working rapidly to complete the
reserve.
Some historical programs, how
ever, have been presented the Uni
versity and will serve as a nucleus
for the reserve, Dr. Kellam said.
Old literature includes a program
of Madame Sosnowskl in presenta
tion of a musical soiree in 1869.

Pharmacy Professor
Probes To Reduce
Arthritis Disease
The problem of curbing the toxici
ty of gold compounds used in the
treatment of rheumatoid arthritis
may be on the way to solution.
A University pharmacist has learn
ed on research with rate and mice
that Injections of several members
of the Vitamin B complex family
and some diuretics with the gold
salts solution could reduce the toxic
manifestations which often occur
when gold salts are administered
alone.
The research has been done by Dr.
Woodrow R. Byrum, professor of
pharmacy.
Gold compounds have been suc
cessfully used for many years in the
treatment of rheumatoid arthritis
but their toxicity has limited their
usefulness, Dr. Byrum pointed out.
He added that the search for some
thing that would reduce this toxicity
became more important when it was
found recently that a combination of
gold and two newly discovered hor
mones offer great relief for arthritis.
Dr. Byrum’s search has been for
some way to prevent the occurrant
harmful effects of the gold while still
realizing their beneficial action.
Using mice and rats for his ex
periments he has found "that the
injection of several members of the
vitamin B complex family and some
diuretics would reduce considerably
the number of fatalities occurring
In animals which had received lethal
doses of gold salts.”
