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.

ment during registration.
Kanellos also announced that

"1958 Garnet and Black" copy will
be able to get them next week in
the yearbook staff's office every

English Dept.
Gives Books
To Prisoners
During the summer the English
Department of the University col
lected 4,000 books for the State
Penitentiary, doubling the library
of the State Penitentiary and add
ing greatly to the availability of
good books for the inmates. 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.

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.
