Slap'Happy Schmoe Screams Wampus Sale Starts Monday
Tripping happily up University avenue yesterday afternoon and throwing handfuls of pied type to the watching crowd, a cherubic looking printer named Bill Schmoe bounced lightly into the Student Union, spotted Willie the Wampus bird, and swept the little bird up in a gleeful embrace.
“The Wampus will be here Monday!” Bill shouted joyously.
Willie had been holding a conversation with a redheaded coed, but he immediately let go of his end of it and began talking with Bill.
“The Wampus is coming, tra-la-la-la. The Wampus is coming, tra-la-la-la,” they sang as they danced around in a circle.
Willie was the first to stop. “Gotta make arrangements,” he said. “Gonna have tables at all the strategic places on campus with beautiful coeds doing the selling.” As he danced hap^ly out of the Union, he passed a group of freshmen looking for the elevator.
“Look for the ‘Wampus on Sale Here’ signs Monday morning,” he advised them, “and have your quarters ready. They’ll go fast.”
Design Exhibits Go On Display
Photographic reproductions of projects designed by fourth-year architecture students will be displayed Oct. 14-31 in Bullock’s at the Home Exposition show, Arthur B Galiion, dean of the College of Architecture, said today.
Photographs taken yesterday on campus of the various domestic projects in which student designers posed, were arranged for entrance in the show by a Bullock’s photographer and a publicity representative from the Downtown Businessman's association.
Instructors in the architectural design course submitted names of hypothetical clients for whose needs plans and constructed miniature replicas of homes were developed. The finished projects have been on display in the architecture building since the end of summer.
Lauding the work of the student architects, Dean Galiion commented, “I feel that by means of these displays, as well as by the actual work that emerges from the analysis of specific requirements, architectural character will be stimulated in the students.”
In addition to project displays from SC, Bullock’s will present other demonstrations, exhibitions, and lectures during the two week show on the seventh floor of the downtown store.

Senate Gets Proposal to Abolish Senators-at-Large; Drop Red Law
Motions to Kmend the recently adopted ASSC constitution in such a way as to eliminate all senators-at-large, the Hare proportional representation system, and voter registration came as a surprise to the ASSC senate last night.
These motions followed closely on the heels of a quick move by Al Kotler, IFC president, and Wendy Harbach. president of the College of Architecture, to withdraw previous motions made by rx-President Jim Mitchell to amend the Bill of Rights to excludc Communists andi Communist “front” organizations; and to make the editorship of the'

ELECTION J OMING
Following Lyddon s motion, Dobkin told the 3enate the new constitution has already Ijeen tentatively approved by Dr Ffegg with the exception of a few minor points, and the proposed amendments by Lyddon would require affirmative action by the senate and then ratification by a general student election.
With approval of: the constitution imminent, it is e'ldent that the election of senators-at-large set for Oct, 29 and 30 will necessarily have to be held or the an lendments voted upon by the student body before that date, Dobkin said.

Came Rally Plans Undergo Revision
Bandleader Kay Kyser will not appear at the pre-gam* rally tomorrow night as announced in yesterday’s Trojan. Kyser was forced to take a raincheck on the rally, contrary to the announcement by Paul Wildman, student body president, and Mitch Gamson, rally chairman, that he would

One other exception to the previously announced program was revealed by Gamson. Jess Neely, Rice Institute coach, will not appear. Neely has decided to remain with his team.
Stars from last week’s victory over Washington State will be presented by Coach Jeff Cravath.

“Never have I seen people rise so ably to instruction as the Haitians,” said Glen Lukens, associate professor of fine arts in charge of ceramics, yesterday.
He was referring to his recent trip to that island where he innau-gurated a program of ceramics to help the impoverished natives learn the trade. Pottery making had never been a part of Haitian culture before his arrival.
In the fall of 1945 Lukens went on leave from SC when he was asked by the Inter-American Educational society to teach Haitians to use clay. Most of the natives were so poor, according to Lukens. that they could not afford to buy plates for meals or pots for cooking.
Due to the lack of equipment, kilns were made of rock and mud and the primitive method of firing the pottery directly was used. Poverty on the island is such that raising the $50 necessary to set up a ceramics center poses quite a problem, said Lukens.
He visited many remote districts, teaching the people to make and glaze utensils. To supply their demand for artificial light, he taught them to make clay lamps fitted with spun cotton wicks. Shells of native gourds and calabash served as molds for teapots.
Everywhere Lukens went he found the people eager and responsive to his teachings. News of his arrival, even into the most out-of-the-way regions, preceded Mm. Tlie native
grapevine worked so efficiently that villages were informed in time to prepare the best available food and lodging for him.
After 13 months in Haiti. Lukens returned to the Unite 1 States, feeling that he had taught the natives as much as they neetifd to know to help themselves. Upon arriving in this country, he attempted to initiate a campaign to aid Haiti buc met with little success.
In 1941 Lukens won the $1000 American Design award in glass and pottery. His work was judged on technical skill, art quai’^y, and commercial importance. He also won the first place Robineaux Ceramic society award in 1S37,
An important contribution to the field of ceramics ls a f-iaze process
he discovered after seven years of research on the subject, including one year in Europe. He is the only one to have knowledge of this process.
This is the fourth year that Lukens has been making ceramic gifts for J. Edgar Hoover. The chief of the FBI buys these and gives them to his friends as Christmas presents. Lukens said that he has many customers and admirers that he has never met but who correspond with him regularly.
Samples of Lukens’ work are now being exhibited in the Fisher Gallery of Fine Arts and will be on display through October. The Fisher Gallery is open from 12:30 to 5 Tuesday through Thursday, from 2 to 5 Saturday and Sunday, and is closed on Monday.
Empty-Handed, Tommy Troian
Waits andW aits
The lack of an available metal man to re-install the bronze sword in Tommy Trojan's tvmd has caused postponement of the date of the proposed ceremonies procedure of Installation, Ernie Wilson said yesterday.
Pending further developments. Tommy still stands empty handed guarding Alma Mater, with nothing but thin air for defense. However, a solution to the problem was expected to develop in an early evening Knight meeting yesterday. Wilson neglected to disclose the nature of the plan, but he did state that the difficulty lies not in getting a general metal man. but specifically in securing an expert in bronze or copper work. “If conditions do not improve hurriedly, the recently recovered bronze sword may have to be replaced by a steel duplicate* added Wilson.
