CU accepts 58 students for Spring The Contemporary University Advisory Board last night ac cepted the applications of 58 students for participation during the Spring semester. There are 53 separate projects which range from a movie on the life of Archibald Rutledge, to a team project which will be con ducted during the summer at the Democratic National Convention. All participants will meet Monday Dec. 13 in the basement of Davis College to discuss registration and student-advisor contact. Two meetings have been planned for the convenience of participants. The first will begin at 10:03 a.m., the second at 3:52 p.m. "We had hoped for a larger number of applications from departments for which we feel CU is adequately suited," Rick Kassachau, faculty director of CU said. Ten more applications can be accepted for the Spring. Kasschau said that applications from students majoring in art or music were encouraged. "In addition, we are hoping for a slightly greater diversity of students in the Spring semester," he said. "While we recognize there are difficulties with available credit hours, we would like to encourage more applications from the professional schools such as education, nursing and engineering." Dr. Richard Nuttal said that the Heart Association was willing to co-operate with students who, wanted to study that area. Dr. Kasschau also said he could suggest several projects that could be done through education, psychology or social work. The social work project involves on-site work in a poverty area in S. C. There is a possibility of another project through the Division of Student Affairs coordinating student volunteers at the Midlands Community Action Agency. Students who are interested in these projects may contact Rick Kasschau or Deb Stirling at the Contemporary University office, telephone 777-4824. The deadline for all applications is Thursday, Dec. 9. ''Happy dorm" challenges all BY LARRY EVANS Staff Writer The Christmas season has arrived at USC. Earlier this week, tenement 15 on the Horseshoe became the first dorm to decorate Its front. Using only $4.84, they decorated their building with a large tree, a blue garland over the front door and artificial snow on the windows. The tree is covered with the usual lights and tinsel, but Its top is dominated by an unusual multicolor revolving light. No single person takes credit for this achievement because It is the combined project of their "happy dorm." Everyone took equal part in the project and everyone takes equal pride in it; W"N Burger King cared 'W""_ A Carolina Cares worker finishes a free drink at Burger King Wednesday during Carolina Cares Day.

No one seemed to mind the misspelling, least of all the Carolina Cares workers who crowded into the restaurant all day long for the free food Burger King provided to help Carolina Cares. . Jerry Lynch, head of the four Burger Kings in Columbia, estimated that 437 Whoppers, 22,287 french fries and enough drinks to satisfy the army.of workers were given away Wednesday. Steve Cannon, one of the project leaders, said, "Without the help of Burger King we would really have trouble. They provide us food and help us keep the group together. I really don't know what we would do without them." Burger King, which also supports church and civic projects, contributed $415.20 in food to Carolina Cares this year and provided $356.20 worth of food last year. "The reason we do it is simple," Lynch said. "We try to be part of the community and so we try to participate In all kinds of things. Carolina Cares is a fabulous project and lets the people of the state and Columbia know that students do care and are willing to do something." Lynch said, "We receive a lot of our income from the University, and we don't mind turning some of it back. Besides, Carolina Cares is the best promotion project that Carolina has done In a long time.'"
