Tolep0one can be a amenace to ;Paty. Evir noticed tbat? Their ienetrating ring can drive a -ane person out of his or hei Mind! And how many of Us ar' SANEt (Joling, of course.) IlAving in a dormitory can be fun at times, but then there are others... times, that is. But out of it all, 'the most annoying Is an swering the phone and hearing, "%orry; I must have called the wrong number. This isn't Pres ton, of course?" No, this isn't Preston. And don't try the old joke, "If this is the wrong number, why'd you an swer the Vlhone?" For some here tofore unknown reason, THAT doesn't go over too big. ake, man, say . . . try to get the correct number? Oheek with the operator or Russell House in formation desk before, dialing. -It isn't TOO hard to find out the number you want. Rather Disturbing Another thing along the line of 'phone calls; unless it is ab solutely necessary, don't call the girls' dormitories after midnight. Not only do the housemothers ob ject quite vehemently to this, but it's quite disturbing to those who are sleeping (at this early hour?) or studying for an exam. Ever notice how annoying a telephone can be? In the early or "late"--hours of the day, at least. Especially when you've been answering the telephone for the past twenty minutes. Of course, whenever YOU answer, it's always for somebody else. As everyone knows, in a girls' dormitory, no one exactly rushes to the 'phone . . . unless they're expecting a call. And the 'phones seem to be so inconveniently placed! Who wants to run all the way down the hall only to have the blamed thing go "OLIOK" in your ear? Two Phones At Once Even more distressing in the uncanny way BOTH telephores manage to clang merrily away at the same time. Think what that can do to your frkzzled nerves. Also, there you are, talking on the telephone, when suddenly the air around you is shattered to bits by the startling "ring-ring" of the 'phone beside you. Now, there's something that can really make you have a near nervous collapse! Ever try talking on 2 'phones at once? Maybe something could be ar ranged to save the nerves of the Carolina co-ed wvho has to battle to the 'click' this monster of mechanism, the telephone. Help Needed As much as Alexander Graham Bell may have been acclaimed for this wonder of wonders, there's just something about it that seems to startle, con:fuse, and frustrate today's victim. With all its many invaluable uses and ad vantages, surely someone, some where, can do something to help the helpless, bell-ridden students. Anyone for the walkie-talkie? Treece's Novel Tells of England "The Master of Badger's Hall" by Henry Treece, is a lusty novel of the dissolute regency era, when English high life and low life merges; when elegance and bru tality lived, gambled and fought together. More articulate, ambitious, and sensitive than his fellow peasants, *4ed Ashton became the prize fighting toast of titled dandies, Master of Badger's Hall and lover of Lady Sarah, George III's illigitimate daughter. Through her, he stalked the gentry's halls-and surffered bit terly for it. His story as told by well-known historical novelist Henry Treece, has the vitality of a memoir and the pace of an en tertainment.

Destructi Needed Ii By LARRY MAY Staff Writer The University is certainly proud of its fine ultramodern un dergraduate library which hai been accepted as a most splen did architecture. Many students and friend have been amazed at the sight of the structure and upon enter ing they fall into deep enthusiasm of the beauty of the scarlet-hued wool carpeting, the gleaming of the polished furniture, the com fortable chairs, and the paneled mahogany walls. The reaction of the people who see the library is due to the re cent construction of the building. Everything new attracts people. The Future Will Answer In years to come, will students and friends cherish this "space ship" architecture as much as they do now? That depends upon how you, the students, use the library.

If the tables, the walls, the chairs, and even the desk lamps did not have jokes, names, and remarks writ ten on them or initials carved on the furniture, McKissick would still have the exclusive ap pearance it did when it was built. If students mark up the new library in anyway, it degrades not only the library, but the whole campus.
