To Re-
The music department at. Tar-
leton is carrying on a complete
reconstruction and renovation pro-
ject. The program began with the
practice room section.
Hightlighting the new installa-
tions are a baby grand piano
9STS9J j -io^c! doo^
Students are not caring for the, new equipment in the Kec-
reation Hall as was expected. The couches and chairs are all
still as bright and clean as they were when they were purchased.
The student should make a point to do as the college officials,
expect. They expected the students to have the furniture marred,
scratched and half burnt from students purposely laying their
cigarettes butts on the upholstering by the end of the first nine
weeks of the second semester.
Stydents also have been missing their msfrk when they ac-
cidentally spill their cokes. They should practice on this exten-
sively for better accuracy.
When the average student throws away his gum he misses
the w.istc basket, but students lately have been hitting their
•-..arks. This probably due to the fact that basketball season lias
jus ended. They should remember that baseball season is coming
soon and: should start practicing their curve balls with their gum
balls.
Not more than 29 slugs have been found in the coke mach-
ines and half of these were professionally made. The little slots
iri the machines are especially made for over size nickels and
ordinary nickel size slugs/do not jam up- the mechanism.. ,
The true Tarletonite should cooperate with the officials of
the school and their expectations. COOPERATION is the word!

to each room, luxrious carpets,
conversational grouping of loun-
ge ehairs and loveseats for the con-
venience of guests, platforms for
assistant professors to turn the
pages, ash trays conveniently dis-
persed', and a cigarette vendor.
A lounge wil occupy the suite
now taken by Roy Acuff Morton,
head of accidental music and cam-
pusoligical arts'. The ounge will
be for the students who have ex-
liusted themselves practising and
are riot able to make it back to
the dorm. It was decided' that this
lounge would be equiped with a bar
to refresh the students, and ama-
eliine for playing T. J. Black's
Cowboy's long-playing records.

Hot Lips Foster (has been re-
juvenating the instrumental de-
partment of music. He has • just
returned from a three weeks Study,
with Spike Jones- and has some
new ideas which he is putting into
practice. "The Military Band will
be discontinued so that we can
concentrate entirely on Spike Jones
music for the Symphonic Band,"
stated Hot Lips yesterday.
. International Relations Lillard,
upon hearing of the program, was
forced to burn al her doll and
posters because she would be tem-
porarily vacating her office and
jvoufd have no place to put them.
Mrs. Wilma Dorsey(who, it was
recently discovered, is the famous
Tommy Dorsey's wife) does not
seem to be disturbed by the noi-
ses surrounding her. She continues
to practice every minute she is
off from classes or lessors.
It was no problem for Mrs.
Doris Keyes to vacate her office.
Such alittle woman can't accumu-
late very much to move probably.
Charles Stogey Froh cound not
'be located for a moment, because
he was probably out smoking pack-
age after package of cigarettes
and drinking sweet, milk.
Texas Brantley has also been
studying with authorities in his
particular field. He has been at-
tending a clinic conducted by Ho-
mer and Jethro. He is very eager
to put these learned musicians'
practices into use here as are
all ■ voice and chorus students.

FEW STUDENTS
USE FACILIHE
OF WRECK HOLE
School authorities recently closed
the doors of the Eec Hall perma-
nently because so few students
used its facilities.
Dust and decay are taking over
the furniture, juke box, and floor
because of so little use.
" College Store employees report-
ed' that students came to the store
to buy books-, paper, pencils, and
other supplies but rarely go into
the Rec Hall, because they are on
their way to classes, conferences,
or the library.
When asked why they didn't
spend more time in the Rec Hall,
several students replied that they
would have to cut too many classes
tp sit in the Rec Hall and play
cards, drink coffee or talk.
The tables and chairs in the Rec
Hall are being moved to the li-
brary to make up; for the shortage
of study tables The coffee bar will
be moved .to the second floor of the
administration building- for stu-
dents in English conference.
CO
LIURD SPEAKS
ON COMMUNISTS
"I have no comment," announces
Miss Lillie V. Lilliard, former head
of Tarleton's Talking Department.
Miss Lilliard made this state in
Tbply to the question, "What do
you- think about the abolition of
the5 Tarleton Speeeh Department 1"
This measQT<T wasj taken by the
Academic Council at a recent meet-
ing'; and announced by President
[E. J. Howell. ' . .
When asked her opinion • about
this step,. Miss Lilliard' 'followed :
her usual procedure in interviews-
and' at other times, and: said that
she would make no statement. She
did state, however, that she was!
only an employee of,the school,- arid;
believed that the Academic Coun-'

if it had riot had a good reason.
