"There is a chance that pictures taken after this deadline will appear in the social or organ ization sections of the book." No radical changes have been contemplated by the staff in the make-up of the book. Emphasis will be laid, however, on school life through a 1ictorial medium supple mented by write-ups and facts. The greatest changes will be in the new lay-outs of informal portraits to be used throughout the book, and the addition of an index that lists every pkture, page, organization and sec tion in the book, thereby enabling anyone to turn to any picture they choose. In regard to payment for pages for fraternities, sororities, and or ganizations, 'Mac Singletary, Bus iness Manager, announced that in case there is any doubt as to the deadline for payment of such pages by December first, being extended. that lie will take bets of two to one that the deadline will NOT be ex tended. In case payment is not made by this time, these pages will be omitted from the book. To (late there have been 248 pic tures made at Toal's Studio at 1435 Main Street. The advance sale of books has passed 550. The advance sale price of the yearbook and the picture is $3.50; without picture. $2.00. The price of the GARNF.T AND BLACK will be raised $1.00 immediately after registration for the second semester. Flinn Hall Turned Into Night Club By Westbrook Flinn Hall, heretofore known to most Carolina students as the home of the University Y. M. C. A., sev eral nights ago took on many of the aspects of a popular night spot. Henry Westbrook's orchestra, which for the past several years has bleen using the Y meeting room for practice sessions, was really "sendl in g." Crowds of students, predonmi nantly male, were clustered around the front windows andl jamming the hallways. Late arrivals paused out side of the windows and then stolpped. No actual (lancing was in progre's , but inveterate jitterbugs were putting on a real exhibition of foot patttinlg. Radios wecre forgotten as sashes were raised all over the near sidle of the campus. F.ven the "judlges" paused in t heir clock punching rounds, to lend( ear to the melodlic strains emanating froni the interior of Flinn Night Club, daytime home of Mr. Bell's Y.

Progress Made By Coker In Gardens New Flowers Aid In Campus Beautification luch progress has been made in improving and beautifying the Uni versity gardens, Dr. E. C. Coker, chairman of the Committee on Grounds and Buildings, -said yester dat. T.he gardens slope gently in a grassy incline at the bottom of which is a little pond, flanked on either side by honeysuckle, weeping willows, and lilies. There is a profusion of mountain hemlock, red haws, blue sage, lobelia, and other lovely plants and trees. Sone of the plots have been planted with soy heanls to ii prove the condition of the soil. Scar let spears. cigarette-shaped flowers of a brilliant red line, have been planted and will be in full bloom in the spring. The past summer muskrats did nich damage to the lillies. A steel trap was set one evening, and the next morning only the foot of the muskrat was found as evidence of his raid. lie had gilawed off his leg and escaped. "All considered, however, the plants have survived the summer heat very well indeed, including the ferns in the fern ravine," said Dr. Coker. At present the surroundings are rather torn up with the paving; but as soon as that is complete, the outlook will be pleasing. Stamp Sales Boom Tn Postoffice Rush Over $15 worth of stamps are sold every day at the University of South Carolina post office, said Mirs. N:.nn!ie Mon, pf)Ft nistre!;. This figure represents the largest regular sales of stamps in the his tory of tile University. More than 125 packages and 1000 letters, exclusive of official Univer sity mail, are handled by the post office every day, 'Mrs. TMoon stated. This increase has necessitated en larginig the staff of the University pos5t office to six p)ersonis.

The old c3nstitution is vague and has been amended so often that it is hard to get the sense of it, making a new one imperative. It is es pecially vague as regards the rules of rushing and for rush week. The Fraternity committee desires to work closer together with Inter fraternity council this year and be lieves that rushing conditions will be much more satisfactory when the rules and regulations are clarified and all fraternities know their rights. The committee wants the new constitution submitted to it on or before December 1, so they may discuss it and offer suggestions be fore final adoption. They want ti put the new rules in effect during February rush week as a trial, to see how they work. Alembers of the Fraternity com mittee of the faculty are: XV. Frank Taylor, chairman; Dr. 1lavilah lBab cock, T. F. Ball, Dr. F. \V. Bradley, John A. Chase, Jr., Mrs. Arney Childs, and R. L. Sumwalt. If Enright Need Kicker Should See Pecan Picker Page Rex Enright! If what he needs is a kicker, he should watch the performance of the little boy at the corner of College and Sum ter every afternoon. Uisually around : P. M. he pedals up on his bicycle to several pecan trees near the corner, unlimbers his football, and punts with unerring accuracy into the branches. If the number of pecans lie dislodges is any sign, lie should make the all Southern team in a few years as the best coffin corner kicker in the Conference. That's a tip for the alumni and the Clemson game of 1950.

CARBURETOR 'AYWOONDIE 4 In this Kaywoodie pipe, called the Car buretor Kaywoodie, a wonderfully sweet smoking pipe has been improved by the application of a neat little principle of physics. When you take a puff at one of these Carburetor Kaywoodies, you auto matically draw air in through a tiny inlet in the bottom of the bowl. That incom ing air keeps the smoke cool, sweet and serene, no matter how belligerently you puff. In fact, the harder you puff, the more air comes in. That's why it's called a Carburetor Kaywoodie. Everybody knows that a Kaywoodie is the most so cially-conscious of pipes-gets itself ad mired everywhere. And the Kaywoodie Flavor is famous. But don't let us urge you-Shown above, No. 22.
