Old Main Clock
Chimes Tell Time;
Pose Questions
In spite of the countless stu
dents who anxiously listen for the
hour to be tolled by the clock in
Old Main—perhaps signifying the
end or beginning of a dreaded
class—it is doubtful that any one
student could pass a quiz on how
many times the chimes'Sound at
fractions of the hour, the range
of notes of the musical scale that
the chimes cover, and what time
of the day the chimes cease.
, Frank T. Morris, administrative
assistant to the treasurer, is per
haps the only person who could
score a perfect paper in' such a
quiz, and he offers the following
information about this w e 11-
knowh clock.
The chimes sound 4 notes at a
quarter after the hour, 8 notes ,at
naif past the hour, 12 notes at a,
quarter of the hour, and 16 notes
on the hour.
Tones struck at fractions of the
hour are: mi, re, do, sol at a quar
i ter after the hour; mi, do, re, sol
—do, re, mi, do at half past the
hour; and mi, do re, sol; sol, re,
( mi, do; mi, re, do, sol at a quarter
of the hour. : '
Tones struck on the hour pre
' ceding the strike to indicate the
hour are do, mi, re, sol; do, re, mi,
, do; mi, do, re, sol and sol, re, mi,
1 do.
To further complicate matters,
[ there are 15 strokes in groups of
3 sounded at 6 p.m. to indicate the
hour. This melody is called the
i Angelus.
And did anyone ever notice
that the quarter-hour chimes do
•' got continue for the full 24 hours?
They begin at 7:15 a.m., and'con-.
< trnue on the quarter hour until 5
P.m. They begin again at 6:15
Pm, and continue to ltf p.m.

Mortar Board Asks
For Sorority Plans
Sororities have been sent let
ters requesting them to plan a
booth for entertainment at the
Mortar Board Mardi Gras and are
urged to present their plans to
Elizabeth Taylor, a member of the
Board, as soon as possible.
In setting up a booth or arrang
ing entertainment, sororities are
reminded that the exchange of
money from customer to booth is
not allowed. Instead tickets will
be exchanged for money at a spec
ial booth and tickets will serve as
money tokens. Gambling booths
are also discouraged by Mortar
Board, which wishes to see enter
tainment booths predominate.
Money earned at the Mardi Gras
will be used by Mortar Board to
help finance $lOO scholarships pre
sented each year as the Dean Ray
Scholarship Fund.
Highlight of the evening will be
the mock coronation of the Mardi
Gras King. Nominations for the
king can be made by women’s
groups. In voting for the king 'one
penny will count as one vote and
no limit has been set on. the num
ber of votes one person may have.
Thus -the candidate who receives
the most pennies in his name will
be the Mardi Gras King, i
A new custom will be begun this
year as Mortar Board awards a
bronze cup to the women’s group
which earns the most'money for
the festival. The originality and
ingenuity, which attracted people,
are thus awarded also. •
