Levonne Chambers The CAMPUS ECHO has cho sen Dr. C. Elwood Boulware as “faculty member of the month” because of his contributions to North Carolina College Students. Even though Dr. Boulware has many major civic responsibili ties, he is never too busy to take C. E, BOULWARE time out to counsel students and try to direct them a-rlght. Many of the students become acquainted with Dr. Boulware at the beginning of his or her fresh-^ men year by attending Sunday School on campus. The NCC mathematician is superintendent of the campus Sunday School, which is designed to bring all students together for one hour on In Doubt? Check At By DR. B. F. SMITH Librarian The college library comes alive when students make use of its intellectual resources. The first essential in the process is making available the right book for the right person at the right time. The acquiring of new books and making them avail-, able on the book shelves are the beginning points. The presence of the books and the nature of their contents must be made known to the library user. Experience has taught us that students at North Carolina Col lege need thoughtful, well-plan ned and courteous guidance in the use of the Publia Card Cata log. Armed with these facts, the Circulation and Reference Di vision of the James E. Shepard Library has established an Infor mation Desk in the Card Catalog Corridor. The Desk is located near the Public Card Catalog in order that the attendant will be readi ly available to assist anyone hav ing difficulty locating library RECORDS TOP RECORD HITS GREETING CARDS PARTY FARE also RADIO REPAIR at MARIE’S RECORD BAR PHONE 5-4283 544 E.

By J. L. CHAMBERS Now that the Flu epidemic which invaded our campus a few weeks ago is on the decline, the Student Government wishes to apologize for the lull in social activities which was caused by the epidemic. We are glad that healthier days are here again and greatly appreciate the swell co-operation on the part of the student body diuring the epi demic. S.G. is now formulating plans for establishing a Student Go vernment Student Loan. The Student Loan wHl'TOake funds available to students for prac tice teaching and other piUTposes connected with academic train ing. Plans are being made to spon sor concert programs, to obtain the use of the concession stands in the gymnasium during the basketball season and on the Athletic Field during the Home coming game, and to publish programs for the Homecoming game in order to raise funds for the Student Loan. However, these activities alone will not be sufficient to raise the money re quired to establish a Student Loan. S.G. believes that if each stu dent contributes one dollar to ward the establishment of the Student Loan,’ we can accom plish this goal without much dif ficulty. We would like to have the reaction of the student body to this plan and in the form of letters to S.G. Plans are also being made by the Student Government to join the United States National Stu dent Association. This organiza tion is composed of student as sociations throughout the nation that are associated to give con sideration to questions of mutual concern. The United States Na tional Studerit Association is a non-partisan, non-sectarian, non profit, student run, educational association. We hope to become affiliated with this organization this year.

Activities of the youth of the convention included discussions of local and national problems and solutions and election of new officers, and workshops. There were also social affairs. Persons featured on the con-* vention program included main speakers Kelly Alexander, Stata President; Roy L.
