Telephone Problems Explained All students on campus should give the telephone number of the pay station nearest them in order to be reached by outside calls, Mrs. "Dixie" Dugan has requested. There is no way possible for an outside call to be connected to an interior campus telephone, she said. Telephones numbered be tween 100 through 309 and 600 through 699 are interior campus phones. "In the case of parents' calls and emergency calls which cannot get the pay station, we always make every effort that is possible to reach the people," Mrs. Dugan said. Nearly every building will have pay stations, according to her. Outside Telephones Telephones n u m b'e r e d 810 through 699 may reach outside the campus by dialing 9, hesitating for the-. second dial tone and dialing {e' original number. If a busy sfgnal sounds after dialing nine, it means that all of the sixteen trunk lines are busy and the party should dial again for the dial tone. When a discontinued number is dialed by a student the operator will answer and the student should indicate the number he dialed so that the operator can give the cor rect number. The university telephone opera tors are Mrs. Marguerite Abbott, Mrs. Ruth Baldwin, Mrs. "Dixie" Dugan, Mrs. Hattie Jane Fuller, relief operator, and Mrs. Jackie Harper. Yearbook Schedules Pictures Appointments for student pic tures for "The Garnet and Black" may be made Monday through Fri day of next week in room 102 of Russell House from 2 until 5 p.m., Jimmy Kanellos, business manager, has announced. This period has been set aside for those students who could not arrange an appoint ment during registration. Kanellos also announced that students who did not pick up their "1958 Garnet and Black" copy will be able to get them next week in the yearbook staff's office every day from 2 until 5 p.m. Dormitory Demolition Is Begun Demolition of Wade Hampton College began last month, imme diately after the contract for con struction of the women's residence hall was awarded Jno.

The English Department is now collect ing a library for the South Caro lina State Hospital and would wel come contributions from any mem bers of the faculty for this pur pose. A penitentiary truck picked up the collection that was given to the library at the penitentiary. It was indeed an assortment-history, economics, English, philosophy, chemistry, social sciences, mathe matics, English and American classics, encyclopedias, Bibles, dic tionaries, novels, poetry, and many others. "You could hardly name a field which is not represented," Dr. Babcock said, "Some of the books were published this year, and some are half a century old." The collection appeals to a wide variety of tastes and to persons of various ages and backgrounds. to tmake way for a larger womnem's i. This Is how the old stra... inga . he.. h.alda..

Trial For Students In the past, every attempt to establish a program has been un successful because of lack of stu dent interest. This year's program will be a trial for Carolina stu dents. If this year's program is a failure, there can probably never be any justification for again establishing such a program. If it is a success, it is hoped it will be come an annual event, as it is at every first-rate university," Osborn said.
