Scramble System Explained A number of students have expressed concern over the sys tem of operation used in the college cafeteria. The “scramb le system,” as the system is more or less fondly known, has been proved to be the best combination of speed and ef ficiency for use in a cafeteria system. Mr. David Castro, manager of the cafeteria pointed out that some of the few con flicts which have arisen in the cafeteria, especially the confusion of the “traffic jams,” could be measurably reduced if the students would make use of several basic principles of procedure. He further sug gests that if the students would simply regulate themselves as they enter the cafeteria, the vast amount of confusion could easily be relieved. In a “test day” the mid-day meal was served to 619 students in 35 minutes when the students were regulated with groups of about 25 students entering the cafeteria at short intervals. At the dinner meal the same number of students were serv ed in one hour, 10 minutes when the regulation system Message From Mr. Castro Mr. Castro has requested that students be careful about dropping silver on the floor in the dining room. Many pieces have ' been ruined because of the «;^j?a!easiis£s of people. was not utilized. All students are urged to take note of the number of people in the cafe teria area when they reach the turnstiles and regulate them selves accordingly. Students are further asked to refrain from sharing meal tickets with other students or visitors who are not residents and who do not possess tickets of their own. Another request.put forward by Castro is that students re member their obligation to in form him of the number of guests they plan to entertain in the dining hall on any week end. For the benefit of all stu dents and visitors, here again are the daily times of opera tion of the cafeteria: Mornings — 7 to 8 a.m. Lunch — 11:20 a.m. to 1:15 p.m. Dinner — 5:15 to 6:30 p.m. It is hoped that all students will take note of these times and that all will cooperate in the effort to improve service in the college cafeteria. Club Organization Outlined Approval of student organi zations at St. Andrews Presby terian College will be handled through the Student Life Com mittee, a joint coordinating body made up of students and faculty appointed by the Presi dent of the CoUege.

Rita won with her entry of “The Lamp and Shield.” Rita interprets her entry in this way: the lamp represents a light toward higher education and the shield signifies (Christ ian citizenship and dedication. Rita’s only remark was, “Tm embarassed”. Her parents are Mr. and Mrs. C. C. Almond of Ridgecrest and Stanfield, North | Carolina. An interesting note is the contrast between the number of people that were in Rita’s graduating class and the num ber of students in the fresh man class. Her graduating class consisted of eleven students and the freshman cleiss num bers well over two hundred. Miss Almond likes both to listen to and play classical mu sic. She also enjoys reading hobby with all the homework that she has had since school began. RITA ALMOND Contest IViiuier
