The crowning of the May Day Queen, Miss Judy Clontz, and the presentation of the May Court will take place at 8 o'clock, to be followed by the presentation of a medley of three tunes from My Fair Lady in tribute to the May Queen.

Class meetings were held Monday, May 2, for the purpose of electing next year's class officers and making nominations for the Outstanding College Citizen awards. At the junior class meeting, held in rooms 236 and 237 Stillwell, Cleive Luckadoo was named president of next year's senior class. Assisting Luckadoo will be Tom Halgrim as vice-president, Synthia Terres as secretary, Ginger Lathan, who was e- lected treasurer, and Carolyn Lynn, who will serve as reporter. Those attending the sophomore class meeting in the gallery of Hunter Library elected Jim Chappell next year's president. Other of next year's junior class officers are Jim Young, vice- president; Cheryl Goodwin, secretary; and Buddy Skinner, treasurer. The freshmen, who met in Hoey Auditorium, elected Tom Roberts to serve as next year's sophomore president. Don Lucas was elected vice-president, Linda Davis will serve as secretary, and Bob Hill was elected treasurer. This year's seniors, who met in the conference room at Joyner, discussed plans for graduation. Attendance was sparse at the 8 a.m. meetings. Lack of attendance at these meetings has prompted several student government leaders to contend that individual class officers no longer serve a function at WCC and should be eliminated. Students attending the meetings were also asked to fill out personnel sheets for their permanent records in the Student Activity files. In considering nominations for Outstanding College Citizens, students were asked to vote for two boys and two girls whom they felt had done the most for the college and the student body; seniors received first consideration.

'My Fair Lady' Set To Open Tuesday Night Information For Passing Draft Test Available In New Book LEFT TO RIGHT, ABOVE, ARE MIKE Gray, Anthony Brown, Alta Mosely, and Jerry Conner, who will portray lead roles In the Little Theatre at Cullowhee's spring quarter production of "My Fair Lady." The play is to be shown Tuesday through Saturday of next week In connection with the Spring Festival activities here. Curtain time is scheduled for 8:00 each night and there will be a matinee performance Saturday afternoon for alumni and visitors. About a million students — current high school graduates, college and postgraduate students—will soon be facing the Selective Service College Qualification Test. High scores on this test may spell the difference between the opportunity to postpone military service obligation until the completion of their education or being reclassified for draft call. These students must review, practice, drill to train themselves to score high on what are probably the most decisive tests they will ever take. They have the double job of preparing for the tests along with their regular college work. Strictly on their own, they have to review a lot of half-forgotten material without the aid of their orginal textbooks. So they doubly need a book like the new Barron's How to Prepare for the Student Draft Deferment Test (Selective Serv ice College Qualification Test). It focusses right in on the Verbal and Math areas to be tested by these exams. It is complete, clear, practical—no waste motions, all the essentials. In presenting the material, consideration was given to the fact that some students may not have had recent experience with mathematics because of concentration in fields other than science and mathematics. Conversely, the science and mathe matics majors may have neglected vocabulary building. By doing the exercises and consulting the answer section, students may quickly accomplish self-diagnosis and evaluation so that they will know what to review most intensively. VERBAL SECTION contains word lists with definitions and study guides; exercises in sentence completion, word relationships, and reading comprehension. MATHEMATICS S E CTION gives complete review of subject matter from arithmetic fundamentals to the advanced concepts of algebra and geometry. Thorough drill is provided in interpreting graphs and statistical data. In all, there are thousands of questions with answers for drill and practice, plus 10 complete model Verbal Aptitude tests and 10 complete model Mathematics Aptitude tests with answers. As reported in the Carolinian recently, the results of the Selective Service test combined with the student's class standing, could indicate whether the student would retain student deferment or be reclassified 1-A. A reference copy of Barron's How to Prepare for the Student Draft Deferment Test, as well as information on how to obtain the book, are available at the Western Carolinian office in Joyner.

The Western Carolinian is Western Carolina University’s student-run newspaper. The paper was published as the Cullowhee Yodel from 1924 to 1931 before changing its name to The Western Carolinian in 1933.
