Student Council in its Monday
meeting heard a report from Dick mi
Maher on plans for future foot- ,1
ball seating arrangements. Maher 01
had met with Athletic Director Gl
Rex Enright and Dean of Admin- sti
istration W. H. Patterson. is
Maher reported that Enright ,ol
and Patterson wore willing to co- pi
operate to the fullest with student m
council to try to make student ge
seating more convenient in future gi:
years. fo
A first-come-first-serve sugges
tion was proposed whereby groups tic
would be able to sit together by to
coming out to the stadium at the at
same time. This plan proved to be to
somewhat disadvantageous inas
much as members of a group might to
be seated at the top of one section in
while other members of the same a:
group would be at the bottom of in
the next section. b
SCouncil was informed that the so
date-ticket situation will not be se
relieved unless students are willing co
to pay more for the tickets. in
Council members then suggested Joi
that a photo Identification card
system might be used whereby no Pj
tickats would be used and students to
could sit anywhere in the student de
section, but this plan has been re- a
jected by the administration th~

G&B Gets
Accolades
A first class rating was given
The Garnet and Black of 1957
by the National Collegiate Press
Association, Jim Fuller, editor of
the 1958 edition, announced this
week.
The '57 yearbook garnered
5,225 points, missing the All.
American rating by a mere 75
points. A yearbook must have
5,300 total points to earn an All
American rating. The 5-225 points
is the highest obtained by a Garnet
and Black edition in several years,
Fuller said.
The Miss Garnet and Black
Contest originally scheduled for
Russell House Assembly Room
Tuesday night, Nov. 12, has
been postponed to Wednesday,
Nov. 20, at 8 p.m.
According to Garnet and
Black editor Jim Fuller a mix
up in Assembly Room reserva
tions was the cause of the
postponement.
The original story pertaining
to the contest appears on page
five of this edition. Fuller
pointed out Wednesday night
that all information in the
story is now indefinite due to
the unexpected change in plans.
The judges commented on the
excellence of the cover, end sheets
and the opening section as well
as complimenting on several other
phases of the annual.
Plans have been made to adhere
to the suggestions made by the
judges in the 1958 edition, Fuller
said. The Garnet and Black staff
will attempt to portray accurately
a picture of the year 1958 at Caro
lina, he said.
Lawrence Curry was editor of
the annual last year, Patsy. Mel
lette was managing editor and
Frank Mims was business man
ager.
"An important innovation was
made by the staff of last year
when the beauty section of the
yearbook was chosen in the Miss
Garnet and Black contest. For
merly this had been done by send
ing pictures of candidates to a
prominent personality for judg
ing," Fuller commented.
"The staff of last year is due
congratulations on the successful
coverage of the school year and
the very favorable reception of
the book by the judges and the
student body," he said.
NEXT SEMESTER
Carolina's

Since the. end of World War II,
with its attendant increase in col
lege enrollments, parents, educa
tors, and students alike have be
come increasingly aware of the
need for higher level reading
skills.
Research also continues to point
out that many college students
with superior scholastic aptitudes
do poorly or fail because they
have not developed adequate read
ing skills for an advanced level of
work. To meet this need, colleges
and universities throughout the
United States have introduced de

dents improve their reading and
study skills. Each applicant for
the program will be given a diag

his needs.
Final selection for the program
will be based on the degree of need
indicated. For those students in

testing will be made available, in
cluding evaluation of visual skills,
hearing and work habit.. A sum

the summary the student will be
aided in recognizing his own
special need for training.
The goals of the program will
be to guide the student toward
better comprehension and rate of
reading. Instruction in the pro
