MCKissick -For More By Feature Editor When the USC band played "There's Gonna Be Some Changes Made" just before the Duke game they need only have changed the title to the past tense for these words to describe McKissick Li brary-it too has a new look. Students seeking some profes sor's Reserve Book list in the old Refe.rence room on the second floor would now find themselves in the rare book room. The circulation desk and card catalogue have both been moved to the first floor from the second. The Reserve Book lists? They've been switched to the new undergraduate library. All of these changes have been made during the summer primarily for the greater convenience of the students and professors who use the library, according to Alfred H. Rawlinson, librarian. A secondary consideration was convenience for the members of the staff, hes said.

It is implied that you will get an answer since programming is running along as usual with sev eral hours to go. Needless to say, the phone went unanswered because there was no one around. When the station moved to its fine new quarters in Russell House, the most immediate con cern was for getting settled. Soon another problem loomed: operating hours for the student center and the radio station were not in step. Both sides had relavent reasons for their points of view. flair Tearing It seems pointless to keep Rus sell House open beyond the time that most students would use it so the hour of closing was set at Spirited Pe Precedes V By BILL LUMPKIN By Feature Editor The "men and women of Caro lina" poured into the field behin, the new undergraduate library i large enough numbers last Frida night for Coach Warren Giese t remark that it was the bigges pep rally he had seen for a Duk game.

On the part of the sta tion, most fruitful hours have been shown by survey to be past this time. Condition loggerheads rapidly developed with some minor hair tearing. WUSC is no exception to the rule that necessity mothers in vention and now the challenge became one of how legally to circumvent t)he rules. Operation automation stepped into the pie ture. The original plan called for an hour of unattended pro gramming each night to be pre taped at a more convenient time. Suitable controls were developed. Well, the monster grew, and last year, the organization pre taped four hours of program ming each week day to run fron 11:00 p.m. until 3:00 a.m. Suv cess us supposed to be get prog ess us supposed to beget prog mer from 10:00 to midnight each p Rally ictory as the "best coach in the world." Giese spoke briefly, saying that - his present team had worked harder "than any team I have been a associated with in 14 years," be V fore introducing John Saunders : and Ed Pitt, co-captains. t Sumwalt, Giese, the co-captains e and the band were all applauded by the crowd in turn, as about 50 f people looked on from the benches e behind the library above the heads i, of the band and the main crowd of I about 400. Shirtail Parade F. After going through "the big r question" and the other cheers a few more times the cheerleaders n led the students in the first shirt - tail parade in several years. t Everyone started out lined up in single file making a line at least two blocks long winding across i- Davis Field and through Russell n House. The line broke up, however, as some students ran across the field diagonally to join the head of the line in Green Street with e out going through RIussell House. Is Since everyone was running by n this time and because of the traffic on Green Street the crowd became a formless mass rather than a line d of students holding onto each 7 other's shirt tails. This in no way h dampened the students' enthusiasm d as they surged downtown, trustrat ing traffic in all directions, and y yelling the usual pep rally themes e of "Let's go, Carolina, go!" and k "Beat Duke, Beat D)uke, Heat " h - - - out of D)uke."
