The long awaited Student Direc-

House. This little pamphlet is a
gem of information. A telephone
call to a student Brain the night
before the examination may mean
the difference between a low or
high grade, or success or failure.
Former Editor Wins
Clegg Scholarship
Dorothy HARTMAN, former
editor of the JAYSEE RANGER,
has been awarded the 1949-50
Laura S. Clegg Scholarship of the
San Antonio Panhellenic Associa-
tion. She is a junior business ad-
ministration student at the Uni-
versity of Texas.
Dorothy, a member of Phi Theta
Kappa while a student here, was
second highest girl graduate of
SAC last May.
The Clegg Scholarship is award-
ed annually to an outstanding girl
graduate in memory of Mrs. Laura
S. Clegg, founder and honorary
life member of Panhellenic Asso-
ciation, who died in 1948.
This is an opportunity for buy-
ers, sellers, and the Whi Dida
Cheatas alike to gain. For further
particulars consult Claude Whitis,
Jackie Chambers, Joyce Hay, Mary
Chengos,
Deering,
Olive, or
Phy.
Mike F. Olive, 46-year-old retired army major, has been
chosen by a faculty publications committee to succeed George
Jackson as editor of the Jaysee Ranger for the spring
semester.
Olive, like Jackson a sophomore,
has been on the staff as a reporter
since last September. He is also
a staff photographer, and he is
majoring in journalism.
The health unit, plans for which
are now being drawn by the archi-
tects, Phelps, Dewees and Sim-
mons, is to be located in the south-
west corner of the site. Land pur-
chases are now being negotiated on
San Pedro Avenue south of Lo-
cust Street.

Finals Will Begin Monday
Final examinations for the Fall Semester, 1949-50, will follow

New Courses
To Be Started
One new course is being inau-
gurated in the Day School for next
semester and two new courses are
scheduled in the Night School, ac-
cording to Dean Wayland P. Moo-
dy.
An elementary education course,
Education 315, is being added to
the day curriculum. Clyde R. Nail
will be the instructor.
A life insurance course, given
from the consumer education
rather than selling standpoint, is
one of the two new courses for
the night school. The first science
course to be given for evening
students will be started next se-
mester and will be Biology 801a.
The lecture will be held on Thurs-
day evening, and the laboratory is
set for Friday evening.

iStudents are advised that Janu-
ary 16 is the last day of this se-
mester to return library books.
Grades of individuals with bor-
rowed books will be withheld un-
til all are returned.
Watch the library bulletin board
for a list of delinquents and books
for which they are charged.
-------o------
The Brain Trust, better known
as the Phi Theta Kappa, headed
by its president, Layton Murphy,
will open a money-saving Student
Book Co-op on Thursday, January
19, in the room immediately west
of the Physics Laboratory, which
is also known as Room No. 9. Ex-
cepting Sunday, the Co-op will be
open through January 27. Hours
will be 8 a. m. to 1:15 p. m.
Four persons benefited from the
Student Council’s Christmas col-
lecting program, which netted
$30.10 in cash, two baskets of can-
ned goods and two baskets of cloth-
ing.
Student Council members will
not reveal identity of the reci-
pients but they explain that dis-
tribution was made according to
the individual’s need.

after the Christmas assembly on
Dec. 23 which featured the Col-
lege chorus and Frank Williams

Man.”
ticipated student body of approximately. 475.
The fact that a great many
students have not as yet deter-
mined what changes they will
make in theii’ courses for the com-
ing semester probably prevented
the pre-registration from being
much larger.
Pre-Regisiraiion Totals 258;
Some 200 More to Enroll
Two hundred fifty eight students pre-registered last
Thursday and Friday. Of this number, 47, or about 19 per
cent, were veterans. It is estimated that about 117 additional
students will re-register or initiate enrollment, making an an-
Those who have failed to re-
register wil have another oppor-
tunity at 9 a. m. January 23.
Freshman orientation will be at 2
p. m. on the same date. Of interest
to the eager beavers is that the
second semester starts the next
day at the regular hours.

The bright boys and girls ex-
pect to have available almost all
books to be used at San Antonio
College the coming semester, and
at substantial reductions in price.
The books to be bought and sold
will be those that are in good
condition and no longer required
by their present owners.
Departing Students
Must Pay for Annual
Students who are leaving San
Antonio College at the end of this
semester and who want a copy of
the 1950 EL ALAMO reserved
for them, must pay a $1.50 bal-
lance on the book by Feb. 15, ac-
cording to Lewis Higbie, business
manager for the publications.
The annual is issued without
additional charge to students who
have paid the full activity fee for
both semesters of the 1949-50 term.
From the fee of each semester, the
annual gets $1.50; hence, when
the fee is jjaid for only one se-
mester, the balance must be paid
if the student expects to get a
copy of the EL ALAMO.
This arrangement holds good
only upon payment of the full fee
of $7.50 each semester. Students
who pay a smaller fee (it is less
for those taking only one or two
courses) must pay the full pur-
chase price of $3.00 for the an-
nual.

The front office positively
denied current campus rumors
that Rita had made efforts to
reserve space for Yasmin in 1967,
and they laughed off the report
that Queen Madge would be an
an exchange student with Princess
Margaret next term.
------o------
Students with books required
during the next semester who no
longer need them are urged to use
the Book Co-op to dispose of them.
Owners will be permitted to name
their price, but are cautioned that
the books priced lowest are most
apt to be sold. The Co-op will add
a small percentage to the asked
price for their services. Any ac-
crued profits will go to the treas-
ury of the Phi Theta Kappa for the
improvement of that organization.
Over-all plans for the new San
Antonio College have been changed
with the moving of the science
building from the back of the lot
to the front. With this move, a
passageway sketched in the ar-
chitect’s conception of the cam-
pus will' connect the administra-
tion and science buildings.
Memebers of the chemistry, bio-
logy and physics departments met
with the architects last Tuesday
to discuss plan for the layout of
the building.
The science unit is expected to
include a receiving room for sup-
plies, plus a dumb-waiter to get
the materials to the floor on which
they will be used; a dark room; a
balance room; a shop; two phy-
sics laboratories; two chemistry
laboratories; two biology labora-
tories; three offices; an electric
panel board room display; a large
lecture room with elevated seats
and visual education equipment;
a large classroom and a small
classroom.

Work on the administration
building is proceeding according
to schedule, but contrary to ex-
pectations the foundation is run-
ning into extra cost because of
having to go down 40 feet to reach
blue shale.
