  • _. WE S Tli RN Carol i n ian ThcVoicc of the StudcnVs VOL. XXXI, NO. 7 Friday, October 29, 1965 CULLOWHEE, N. C. Abbott, Ball Attend Meet In New York On October 14 and 15 Miss Cathy Abbot, editor, and Danny Ball, assistant editor of the Catamount, Western Carolina's yearbook, traveled to Columbia University in New York City, where they attended the National Scholastic Yearbook convention. This convention represented all the certified colleges and high schools throughout the United States. The main purpose of the convention was to discuss methods and present examples of winning yearbooks of the past. Meetings were held at the huge library on the university campus, and topics discussed were covers, copy, lay-out, photography and every section of the typical yearbook. Speakers at these meetings included college and high school editors of winning yearbooks, the lay-out editor of "Look" magazine and other professionals. The college editors gave reasons for the success of their yearbooks and the professionals gave hints on ways to produce a better yearbook. In addition to attending the convention Miss Abbot entered last year's Catamount into national competition. The Cata mount will receive the results from the judging within the next two weeks. Competition is based on each section of the book, copy, lay-out, theme, photography, introduction, etc. Each section is scored and the total score results in a winner. The judges are composed of a committee appointed by the National Committee. Past winners have been representative of the larger universities of the United States; University of California, and Florida State for examples. Miss Abbot commented that she enjoyed the convention very much and believed that the Catamount should benefit from the information she received at the many meetings.

Postal Service In Dormitories May Be Solution To Problems The rumor that General Delivery to students in the Cullowhee Post Office will be discontinued has been denied by Postmaster Wayne Hooper. In an interview with Mr. Hooper this week, it was stated that the reason for this rumor was "probably due, in part, to the efforts of the post office to inform all students to make sure their mail is Sunni Fernandez Wanda Hice, Secretary of NCARFCW here at Western says: "I think this convention will give the girls an opportunity to expand activities throughout the state. Some of the problems will be identified, and we will try to overcome some of the present difficulties." ed that, with the expansion and growth of the college, one of three solutions would have to be sought. "Either box delivery must be established in dorms (as he hopes); or a new and larger post office located in the vicinity of the new buildings must be built; or the college take over the delivery of all college mail." Concerning immediate prob- WAYNE HOOPER, LOCAL POSTMASTER, shown distributing general delivery mail. sent to their box in the post office — not to their dorms. This does not exclude General Delivery addresses." Mr. Hooper stressed that there are still boxes available for any student who wishes to have one to better facilitate his mail delivery. Concerning the regulation that no more than one person can receive mail in each box; he said thata "as long as their are facilities available, the postal manual requires that only one individual, or the immediate family of that individual, could receive mail through the assigned box of that individual." Asked about measures being taken to improve mail service now and in the future, Mr. Hooper discussed a few which have been proposed and the problems involved as well as his hopes for the future of postal handling at Western. "In a survey taken by the government this last summer, it was determined that Cullowhee had adequate postal facilities for its present requirements. As soon as the new dormitories are completed and occupied, a new survey will be taken to ascertain the needs at that time." Mr. Hooper stated that his hopes are that a delivery service in cooperation with the college could be worked out then, whereby mail would be delivered by carrier to apartment-type boxes located in each dorm. He claim- lems faced, the postmaster said that, "all efforts are being made to keep up with the amount of mail handled by the post office." This includes an alphabetical list which is being made of all students with boxes as well as one for those who are now receiving their mail by General Delivery. He emphasized the fact that "all mail is put up by 5 PM and that no mail is placed in boxes after this time." Due to this, he feels that tne locking of the box lobby at midnight for security reasons is not unduly restricting anyone who wishes to check his mail in the evenings. He asks that students respect this privilege and not violate any post office equipment, including the boxes, or there is the possibility that the Security Service will require the locking of the lobby at dusk. The Cullowhee Post Office has .been recognized by the State Postmaster General as one of the most efficient for its size in the state. It handles more bulk mail in the form of newspapers and magazines, regularly, than any other of its size, and Mr. Hooper stated that he wishes to improve this service in any way he can. He said, "If students will read the mail schedule and know when to mail letters and check their boxes they will find that they have as good a mail service here as anywhere in the country." The mail schedule is posted at the letter drop in the lobby.
