names and addresses; pay phones
on the campus dorms and uni-
versity apartments; class officers;
academic and social calendar;
PBX numbers; faculty and staff
home addresses and phone num-
bers; and for the first time a list
of the campus clubs and organiza-
tions and their officers. The best
added feature is the listing of the
student's home town and address.
A lot of time energy and work
went into publishing this guide
outh Hall Holds

Santa visited the girls of South
Hall during their annual Christ-

carols were sung Linda Peterson
gave a chalk talk. Brentz Crow
Betty Nix and Johnnye Lou
White dressed in outing pajamas
and clutching stuffed animals
sang "Santa Claus is Coming to
Town."
The girls drew names and ex-
changed small gifts each day

complimented on their work.
In the preface by the editor of
the Range Guide it was stated
that "your criticisms and sugges-
tions will be welcomed and of
great help to the 1959-60 student
council." And by writing our
criticisms and those of some of
the students of H-SU we hope
they will be of some help to next
year's council.
Naturally the first thing we no-
ticed about the guide was its
clever and attractive cover; but
we felt that the booklet badly
needed a better type binding.
The distinction between the
four classes and the graduates
and specials leaves much to be
desired. It would have cost no
