INQI By HARRI QUESTION: Why is it that the members of the basketball team do not. remain on the court and join in the singing of the alma mater? ANSWER: Coach McGuire told INQUIRY that there are two main reasons for the team's Women's Dress Rule Approved The Associated Women Students House of Representatives last week struck down. a controversial rule that was passed earlier in Feb ruary in favor of a more liberal dress regulations bill. The House also passed a reso ,lution concerning transfer students and announced plans for upcoming AWS elections. Dean Elizabeth Clotworthy this week added her approval to the new dress rule which bans wearing of shorts and slacks in academic or administrative buildings and classes but otherwise leaves it "up to each coed to dress properly and in good taste at all times." A resolution that "any woman student that has had one academic year's experience at another col lege be placed on a white card" and be a c c o r d e d accompanying privileges was a p p r o v e d. Pre viously a transfer who lost hours in the change and had less than 30 semester hours was not allowed upperclass privileges. Pat Traylor, chairman of the elections committee, announced that hall meetings will be held prior to March 9 in order that qualifica tions for AWS officers may be dis cussed and that represent,atives may take nominations. The House will receive nomina tions on March 9. Elections will be held on March 20, and run-offs, on March 22. Polling will take place in each of the residence halls and in the Russell House for town girls.

The safety of the team is the primary con cern and it is difficult to tell how the spectators will act. If the fans are excited and crowd around the plays to congratu late them, the team can be roughed up. Also, the boys are "hot and sweaty" and it is good to get them out of drafts as soon as the game is over. Coach McGuire said that if the stu dents want the team to remain on the court, he will look into the possibility. QUESTION: With over 10,000 students on the USC campus and a good many of those from North Carolina, why can't we get The Charlotte Observer on campus? There are news vend ing stands at the Russell House Student Union with papers from South Carolina. ANSWER: The following was re ceived from The Charlotte Ob server Circulation Dept.: "At one time, in fact up to about four years ago, The Char lotte Observer was available for sale at the Russell House . . and various other places on the campus . . .; however, we found it necessary to discontinue sup plying papers to those vending machines because students were taking papers without paying for them . . . no distributor could put out the paper and ex pect to take in enough money from the machines to justify the handling of the sale of our publication. . . ." QUESTION: Why are the basket ball courts locked up at night? Intramural teams have no place to practice. ANSWER: Coach Baskin informed INQUIRY that there are no funds available for such use at this time. lie said that it would be necessary to hire someone to supervise the activities and that the only source of funds was the insufficient intramural budget.
