Borrowing an idea which Teddy
Roosevelt originated when he was
President back in 1907, Senator
Paul H. Douglas of Illinois has
suggested that political campaigns
be paid for entirely by the gov

The question is raised" says
he, ''as to whether it would not be
cheaper and better to have cam

the public through taxes, rather

CLEMSON, S. c., Dec. 49,
Some leftover notes from the
Southern Conference meeting
which some people still insist was
held for the last time among the
present member schools:
/ The latest rumor is that South
Carolina yesterday spurned g. bid
to join Southern and Pennsylvania
colleges in a new conference be-
cause its great rival, Clemson, was
not included.
If any of the major schools in
the conference are thinking of
pulling out. there was no indica-
ton during the meeting. Every
body seemed to be thinking and
planning for the future.
Those who believe there is a
realignment in the wind thought
the absence of Maryland's presi-
dent. DR.. Curley Byrd. and the
absence Of any representatives
from the University of Virginia
were significant. Virginia was rep
resented at the Eastern College
Athletic Conference meeting in
New York this week end, but for
the first time in many years was
not represented here. Virginia is
not a conference member.
The football coaching vacancy
at North Carolina created almost
as much discussion here as the
meeting itself.
Those closest to the picture at
Chapel Hill do not believe the new
coach will be Maryland's Jim
Tatum because they don't believe
Tatum would take the job under
the present setup. His only boss
at Maryland is DR.. Byrd. At North
Carolina he would have a half
dozen bosses.
Tatum. incidentally. was peeved
about stories emanating here that
he had been in constant company
with Chuck Erickson. the athletic
director at North Carolina. "I've
never attended meeting with
Chuck when I saw less of him"
Jim said.
The Chapel Hill sources doubt
that the new coach will be George
Barclay. former assistant at Mary
land. but believe it might very
well be Virginia's Art Guepe. After
hearing all the stories from some
usually reliable people. our guess
is that it will not be Barclay,
Tatum or Guepe.
incidentally. Carl Snavely is said
to be excusably bitter over virtu-
ally being forced to resign. He
obviously. would like to continue
as a head coach at some school.
A close personal friend of his
said that on the night Snavely
sent his resignation to the coun-
Gil. he did not receive one friendly
visit or phone call, except couple
of calls from newspapermen.
Tatum predicts that if Snavely
gets a new coaching job he will
be an outstanding success within
three years.
