council was- rejected by a vote
of 17 to 13 at a meeting of the council
held Monday afternoon ii? the Law building.

to the council was made by

Contract Let I
For Annual I
Toals To Make Pictures
New Ruling Decrees That Sala
ries Be Paid Only Out Of
Surplus Funds
The contract for printing the 1934-35
(mrncf and /Hack has been let, and the
photographer is ready to take pictures
this week, according to Wesley Walker,
editor. Printing will he clone hv FootcDavis
of Atlanta, and the photographer,
as in previous years, is Toal's Studio.
A deficit is faced l?y the annual this
year, as shown by the estimated budget
made public by Dr. R. K. Foster, director
of student activities. Foster's ruling that
the editor and business manager's salaries
will be paid only from surplus funds reduces
the apparent deficit from $633.77 t<>
$133.77. The estimate shows many expense
reductions and two revenue increases,
but the stall began the year with
$1,915.43 less than last year's surplus.
Students who have already paid for
their annuals may have pictures taken,
beginning ibis week, upon presenting
their receipts at Toal's studio. Payment
for the annual may be made at the studio ^
it it has lint already been done. This
year, said Walker, a student who wants ?
his picture in the darnel and Mack but ]
does not want to pay the three dollars 1
fee for the book, may have his picture 1
included for $1.25.
The theme of the Imok this year will
be the history of the University, and will
be followed in pictures through the book.
Last year the alumni provided the motive.
