Y Book Drive Closes Today
A flood of 3000 books which came in yesterday to swell the Y book drive total to 3600 gave indication that last year's total of 6700 may be surpassed, if donations today, last day of the drive, keep pace.
Though previous donations had lagged behind expectations, the contributions have begun speeding up to such an extent that Chuck Krueger, book drive chairman, has issued a plea for aid.
The number of books has far surpassed the packing and loading facilities set up for them. All able-bodied men who can help out in this capacity will be Welcomed all day in front of University library.
Krueger also asked that books be tied, sacked, or boxed to speed up handling, and that they be turned in as early as possible.
Destination of the books is the SC Memorial wing of the University of the Philippines library, in memory of 211 Trojans who lost their lives in the Philippine campaign.
The three groups making the highest per capita contributions will receive trophies. Delta Tau Delta is leading in donations, writh Alpha Chi Omega in'second place. Last year's trophy winners were Kappa Alpha. Tau Kappa Epsilon, and Sigma Phi Epsilon.
All clothbound books will receive recognition, but full trophy credit will be given only for books suitable for a university. High school books will receive half credit, and will be sent to secondary Philip-

Here is the question before the court:
“Is a custody decree of another state entitled to full faith and credit under the US Constitution under existing conditions?”
The couple was married and divorced in the state of Y, and custody of their child was awarded to both parents, each for six months at a time. While the father was in possession of the child, he brought action in the same state for modification of the custody decree. Before this action was completed, the wrife gained her six-months custody period and took the child to the state of Hale. rOOR KID John Krutch wras awarded full custody of the child through his action in Y. He wrent to the state of Hale to get the child, but the wife refused to give him up. A lower court refused to recognize Y's custody decree and retried the issue, awarding full custody to the

♦ The prospect of an extended voting period is being eyed by ASSC officials today as student balloting moves into its final scheduled day with little sign of a let-up in the near record turnout.
A special session of the ASSC Senate may be called to extend the voting period until Monday, ASSC President Johnny Davis announced yesterday.

IFC Shelves Dousing Issue
The Interfratemity council did not take action on last week’s Row water fight as it was cxpected to do last night.
Whitey Fruhling. IFC president, said the investigation had not been completed, and the executive committee would withhold action until its findings have been compiled, Fruhling promised, however, that “the matter will be discussed and penalties will be imposed upon participating houses at a special IFC meeting Tuesday at the SAE house at 1 p.m.
“No action will be taken tonight,” said Fruhling, “because the executive committee is still in the process of investigating the situation thoroughly and taking into account all of the facs that may have any possible bearing on the case.” Final action was taken, however, on the by-law proposed at the previous meeting to accept no more petitions for club, colony, or fraternity status until September, 1951.
ate. Padgett and Vierheilig appeared as a gesture to emphasize the mutual interests beUveen the school and the rest of the university.
WE’VE MISSED YOU
"I'd like to take this opportunity to welcome the School of Medicine students back to student government. We've missed you,” Padgett told them Deiore he launched his campaign pich.
“Although you haven’t been represented in the Senate, we are fully aware of your problems. We
know you are handicapped financially and are hindered by inadequate facilities.
“We would like to see the School of Medicine ranked as the best in the world. I think you need a courageous student government to carry your problems to the administration.” Padgett said.
VIERHEILIG S PITC H
Vierheilig got in his licks by outlining his achievements in the past and pointing to his platform.
"I've been called a. conservatve.” he said. 1 and I'm proud of it. I believe constructive student government can only be achieved through cooperation with the administration.
“You can't get anywhere by demanding things from the administration. The Senate must take student problems to the administration and try to work out solutions.'’

Voters moved in at a rate of about four per minute under prodding by election officials of both parties. Booths were kept filled from the time the polls opened in thr morning until about 2 p.m.. when a brief lull took some of the pressure off the hard working officials.

One cause of the tournout which may prove to be a record one, is believed to be the simplicity of the voting procedure. Every student with a university identification card ’s eligible. No registration is required.
CAMPUS ALIVE
As a result, the campus was alive with talk of what apepars to be the most exciting election in many years.
Charges of vote manipulation flew thick and fast between the two camps yesterday. Both sides were handing out pocket-size slates of their candidates, disregarding student election laws forbidding such practices.

'Don't Let Them Send Him Away'
‘Best Friend’ Raps Tirebiter Flans
by Ralph Broms
An elderly lady, who terms herself “George Tirebiter‘s best friend,” yesterday sobbed and pleaaed with SC students "not to let them send him away.”
"If you can’t do anything better for the dog. I'd rather you have him put to sleep,” said Mrs. Amie M. Shriber, 3608 South Hoover street, wrho bemoans the fact that her legs are bad and it is hard for her to walk George regularly.
Crying the whole time, she spoke out against university plans for farming George out to the suburbs so he can run to his heart’s content.
“He'd never be happy anywhere but here,” Mrs. Shriber said. “He
belongs with you kids, and he'd be miserable without you.”
Administration officials- and the Knights, George’s guardians, are trying to find an alumnus with a ranch or large yard who will take care of him.
“You aren't being fair to your mascot,” Mrs. Shriber tearfully chargcd. “You keep him iocked up and ignore him all week, so you can show him off to the Coliseum crowd on Saturday afternoon.”
George now resides in a local veterinary hospital. He was taken there by Mrs. Shriber during Easter vacation.
The university assumed responsibility for George’s rent wrhen Mrs. Shriber informed them of her action.
George’s friend said she'd like to go and visit him, “but the poor
dog gets excited because he thinks I've come to take him home.”
“I’d like to bring him here on weekends, but it would kill both of us when the time came to take him back,” Mrs. Shriber said.
“George has gone through a lot for you.” she said, referring to his troubles with UCLA rooters. “Now the time has come for- you to repay him.”
Mrs. Shriber is the only person outside of "officially” has the combination to [ his cage.
“I was feeding and taking care of George long before he ever became the SC mascot,” she said.
Several months ago Mrs. Shriber charged that George's food wasn't agreeing with him. At the same time, she suggested that Bovard be fenced in so he could get his
exercise without being hampered by a leash, something the trouble-ridden dog definitely doesn't like.
Her suggestion now is that the university let her take care of George. She offered to give up her apartment for a house in the neighborhood with a yard. %
“The house must have rooms for my three boarders; they are my only livelihood. George wiil still
George's to^rT wtei I b0loDg t0 the stu<i1ents and the7 can come and get him any time.
She estimated that $23 a month would feed him.
“It is up to the students what happens to George. He's so unhappy he's sick. If he’s nervous and too loud, it is because you have made him so.”
“Please do something,” Mrs. Shriber begged.
