. . . The Second Floor Looked Like This On Monday When Workers Did Not Show

A “flying” coaster and the largest ferris wheel in South Florida are among attractions at UM’s twelfth annual Carni Gras next Thursday and Friday.
The roller coaster flies eightf-feet into the air and lands back on the tracks, according to publicity chairman Brice Harris.
Harris reports there will be 59 booths ranging from “Loop the Leg” to "Hucklebuckle Ballgame.” This is the largest number of booths ever entered

in the carnival.
Lambda Chi Alpha fraternity has entered seven booths — the largest number sponsored by one organization. Pi Kappa Alpha ranks next with five.
Entries are still being accepted, Harris noted.
Carni Gras chairman Jay Nolan said this will be the biggest Carni Gras UM has ever known. “There will be more booths, rides, and awards,” he explained.
Jack Morton, a University Col- ! lege, sophomore, has been elected president of Orange Key, UC leadership honorary.
Morton, a charter member of
the organization which was formed last year, is a past representative to University College Student Government. Active in committee work, Morton is also a member of the UC Advisory ' Council and a member of Phi Delta Theta fraternity.
According to Morton, the honorary will tap new members during Senior Week on March 29.
working nor do they wish to stop any deliveries.
The picketing was to inform the general public of the labor dispute. The union office refused to divulge the reasons behind the dispute.
Mr. Overholt, executive vice
president of the M. R. Harrison Construction Corporation, the company building the library, stated that the question most probably involved the wage scale.
Today construction continues as usual.
HE PICKETED
. . . But No Talk
Morton Voted OK President
Marble Polishers Union Loral 121 picketed the unfinished Richter Library building this Monday.
The labor dispute, directed against the Hollywood Tile and Terrazzo Company, caused a full day stoppage on library
“We also have more space. The gravel fill-in near the Student Union gives us 50 per cent more lake frontage which will be used in addition to the Student Union Patio and the boxing ring area.”
Nolan named a tilt - a - wheel ride which operates on centrifugal force, a dunking booth, a handwriting analyzer, and a spook house as other activities included in the festival.
Six awards will be given to booths divided into two divisions.
Organizations with more than one booth are in the upper division. The lower division comprises those groups entering only one booth. A cup will be awarded to the overall winner —the organization grossing the most money.
Fraternities, sororities, and independent groups may also
compete for a Service Trophy. “This trophy will be given to the organization contributing the most spirit to the event and will he awarded on the basis of working hours and achievement.” Harris explained.
He said that groups interested in vying for the award should submit their names to any Pep Club officer before Thursday.
Construction of booths gets underway tomorrow. “There will be help for the girls,” said Chink Whitten, administrative advisor to Pep Club, which is sponsoring Carni Gras.
Hammers, saws, and nails will be available at the Information Booth in the Union and lumber will also be supplied, Whitten said.
The Director of Recreation also added that a kit of material on how to nail a booth together will be given to the student builders.
“I think it’s going to be the finest Carni Gras ever,” Director of Student Activities Dr. Thurston Adams said.
Cami Gras proceeds go into a scholarship fund which is used for needy students.
