Mr. IAland ie Wet Post Offic Box Mate You may be tampering with the' t mails the next time you open I your letters without first looking at the outside address. Reason? The mail in your box may belong I to somebody else. ' Due to the large increase in c enrollment at the University this a fall, joint use of post office boxes I will be necessary, University a Postmaster Joe Lawrence has an nounced. i The University Post office main- i tains 3,978 boxes at present and i is adopting the box mate system I to accommodate some 1,500 new students. Old students will keep the boxes assigned to them in the i past and about one out of every < four students will share his box with a new student. Box mates in most cases will I be students with the same last names, since the assignments are made according to alphabeticalI order. The new system will prob ably be permanent, the postmaster said. Students who have not yet been; assigned bioxes will receive their FOOIILL. TIECKETIS ((ont inued.4 froma page 1) caairmana of this committee. System Explained Accordlingly, a system of seat inag students alt football games waIs worked (oit by the akppointed committee, wvhich included the head cheerleader and the Student Bodly paresident among others. This plan was proposed to the Student Council as follows: A naumber of seats in the east stand equivalent to the enrollment of studeCnts in the university p)lus 1,000 should lie set off as the student section. This sect ion shoiuld begin north of the 40-yard line' aand extendl as far south as might be necessary tincludie the nau mbera of seats spec'ifiedl above. Adrm iss ion of Caridlina students to this section shouhi1 he conistitulted by p)resenta tion1 of photographed student ide(ntificationl cards which would be puncrlhed ait the time oif admis smon. D)ate tickets shouldl he distrib uated :as follows: Fifty per cent oif thiise availale to senior, grad unit(' andi law studtents; 25 per cent to julnior's; 15 per cent to sopho mores; and 10 per cent to fresh In calses of a male sttudent pur iliasing a date ticket the date tic'ket should be stamped "Fe~rmale,"l and in cases of a female sttudent purc'thasing a dlate tic'ket the date iiket should he stamped "Male." ('ouples ('onsisting of a Carolina stuident and a non -studelint should be req uiredl to present a photog rapheibd s tuident identifiention card anud a dlate ticket, both of which should be punched at the time of admission. With the sttudent section seating 'hould proceed on a first-come, first-serve basis. Elimination of preferential treatment in the seat ing of upperclassmen was consid ernrd necensry to the imnlementa 4" 3 l of the University Board of Truste ghouse Educational Foluna4I1tionl. >k on approvingly.

As in the past, the post office vill open at 7:30 every morning. t will be closed at 7 p.m. daily. 'here are three mail deliveries laily, at 8 a.m., 10:30 a.m. and t 2:30 in the afternoon. Mail roml each delivery is put up about n hour after arrival. While the post office receives uail, both registered and insured, t does not insure packages or egister letters, since it is not a ;overnment sub post office, the ostmaster said. The post office neither sends lor receives money orders but it loes sell post cards and sttttped 'nvelopes. Since the post office is he main channel of communica ion between the administration, 'aculty, and students, you are lrged to check your box fre tuently. The post office window remains >penl (each day excep)t Sunday from :30 a.m. until I p.m. and from to 5 in the afternoon. On Sat irday it is open from 9:30-1 p.m. ion o,f the second ad third aims f the c'ommittee. After consider blde diebate the seating plan was rece'pted by an overwhelming vote >f Studaent Council.
