William T. Todd II of Pittsburgh, Pa. has been named to head the committee. Presidcnt Russell will appoint a faculty committee to work with the student committee, Todd said. Until last year, all new students at the university were required to take a course in orientation. These classes met once a week for one hour and were taught by students. They were discontinued because it was felt that thty were not worth the expense, Todd said. This year student council planned an orientation program which took place the first week of school. There were three one hour lectures held at night. They were not compulsory. Newv stu dents were told of the history and tradlitions of the university and were given talks by the p)resident of the student body, honor board, the Inter-fraternity council and the registrar. On the last night the cheerleaders and President Russell were presented to them. Todd said the committee hoped that next year the program would be compulsory for all new stu dlents. Other members of the student committee' include Frances Lump kin and Neuland Collier, represent Ang student council; Esther La Bruce, Alpha Kappa Gamma; Don Miller, Blue Key, and Brantley Phillips, Omicron Delta Kappa. Todd said that any suggestion. from the student body would be appreciated. Suggestions may be sent to him at Box 3924.

Pro irst US4 h LOOK )w Night By BOBBY ALFORD Co-Sports Editor The University of South Caro lina has finally gotten a full fledged All-American. It took the Gamecocks over half a century to do it, but at last the big laurel that has eluded many a Gamecock great was bestowed upon guard Frank Mincevich. Mincevich, "the Friendly Bear" was named to the 22-man All American squad of Look maga zmne. Mincevich, smiling a little more than usual, said, "It was some thing I never dreamed would hap pen to me, and it was all made possible by the boys." (Minnie used boys to refer to his team mates.) Asks Team's Consent Minnie, who wouldn't agree to take the trip and miss tomorrow's Citadel game without the consent of his teammates, boarded a plane Wednesday morning at 7:20 to begin his trip to New York via Nashville, Tenn. and Chicago. Fri (lay night the 22-man Look squad will be on a nutwork radio pro gram in New York, and Saturday night they will appear on tele vision. The squad will be dined and feted at the famous Leone's Restaurant Friday night with part of the festivities broadcast over Mutual Broadcasting System. The Saturday night television appear ance will be on the Jackie Gleason Show at 8 o'clock over CBS-TV. Frank began his brilliant career at Carolina in 1952 after trans fering from Olympic Junior Col lege in Washington State in 1951. In his first year of varsity action Frank was named to the all-state team, and last year he was voted to the All-Atlantic Coast Confer ence. Enright Praises Ilead Coach Rex Enright said, "We are all very happy and proud that Frank wvas selected on Look's All-America. It is an honor wvell deserved. Frank is an excellent football player, one that p)uts forth 100 per cent effort for the team. With Frank the team came first rather than the individual." Mincevich has already been dlraftedi by the San Francisco Forty-Niners, and they have them selves quite a hunk of football player. Frank packs 243 pounds in his 6i-foot-2-incli frame, and he is fast for his se. The Forty Niners' scouts describe him as the best professional prospect in the east. Coach Hank Bartos praised Frank this way, "he has all the characteristics of a good football player: size, speed, and aggres siveness. He is easy to coach, and he's as good as I ever coached. Frank is a fine man off the field as well as on. Of f the Field Off the football field Minnie is just likc any other student. He constantly visits the canteen and sits and chats with the students as well as his teammates. On the field Minnie concerns himself with the task at hand, that of p)laying football. He is a rugged competitor, and has distinguished himself with his fine play game after game. Coach Bartos concluded, "About the only trouble we have wIth Frank is his parking te.." rram All-Ai Cafeteria Will Serve Over 2000 New Dining Hall To Have Four Lines For Speed By CAROLYN McCLUNG Campus Editor A large air-conditioned cafeteria will be one of the main features of th'e Carolina Student House, scheduled for completion in May. The 100-ft.-by-60-ft. dining hall will have a seating capacity of about 800, and will be able to serve over 2,000 students at one meal, according to Dean of Women Arney R. Childs, a mem ber, of the cafeteria committee. The new cafeteria will have four serving lines with a cash register at the end of each in order to speed service, Dean Childs said. Regular hot meals will be served at two of the lines, while students may get light meals, sandwiches, or other short orders at the re maining two lines. Small Dining Rooms Aside from the main (ining room, there will be three small dining rooms which may be used for faculty, special groups, ban quets, and athletes. These small rooms will bc- completely closed off from the main room. Student organizations, fraterni ties, and sororities may use the new dining hall for dances or cabaret style parties. All or part of the furniture may be removed, and the serving area can be com pletely closed off. A chirge will be made for the use of the hall, but it is hoped that the charge will be less than that of the city's hotel ballrooms, Dean Childs said. At one end of the dining hall, there will be a long window with a conveyor belt for returning trays and dishes to the dish-washing area. If students will agree to carry their trays and dishes to this belt after eating, ecpenses would be cut down, and the quan tity as well as the quality of the food would be increased. Slater System The Slater system, which now operates Steward's Hall, will be used for the new cafeteria. This is an industrial food4'handling firm which trains its dietitians, cooks, and other employees. Slater does all the supplying, preparing and serving of food, in a place providad and equipped by the uni versity. The cafeteria committee is made up of James A. Morris, Dean Childs, Dan McIntyre, Neuland Collier, Philip Moody, Carol Brandenburg, and Frances Lump kin.
