Sign Boosts Football Fever
A new spirit sign greets motorists traveling on north Interstate 35 to Denton.
The billboard was erected by Lambda Chi Alpha fraternity, which is planning
other such signs on incoming highways. The Mean Green takes on Memphis
State Saturday in a game that most experts say will decide the Missouri Valley
Conference championship.
Campus Christian Fellowship Council,
says the Bush has plans for a film series
and development of a coordinated "Free
University Program."
Plans also are being made for "small
group experiences in creative communi-
cation and human awareness develop-
ment," Rev. Branum stated
Graduate record examinations will be
given at NTSU Oct. 25.
Dr. Edward C. Bonk of the Guidance

The examinations will be given twice
this semester, on Oct. 25 and Dec. 13. Ap-
plicants are instructed to meet in the
Main Auditorium at 8 a.m. on their re-
spective test dates. From there, super-
visors will take the applicants to the
testing rooms.
The graduate record examination is re-
quired for all graduate students, who
must take the examination either before
they enroll or during their first semester.
North Texas has been designated as a
test center for the National Teacher ex-
aminations on Nov. 8.

ance Office.
Seniors preparing to teach and teachers
applying for positions in school systems

The Eagle Loses His Head
The North Texas Eagle, after leading the Flock to a 40-6
romp over Southwestern Louisiana last week, takes a
breather. The familiar form on the sidelines is Larry Bur-
rows, a graduate student and member of Talons service
organization. This is the first year that the Mean Green
have had the life-size mascot cheering them on.
NT Starts Pass-Fail Grade System
Plan Limited to One Elective Course
A pass-fail option was initiated this fall
at North Texas.
The option is open to undergraduate stu-
dents in good standing, enrolled for at
least 12 semester hours, with at least a C
average. A student is permitted to sched-
ule one elective course per semester in
which his grade will be recorded only as
passed or failed.
The student will receive credit for the
hours he passes, but the hours will not be
included in calculating the student's
grade-point average.
Students will not be permitted to take
courses under the pass-fail option in the
summer terms. Also, only 18 hours of
pass-fail courses may be applied toward a
degree.
The student must decide if he will use
the pass-fail option at the time of regis-
Rental Lots Open For Parking
The Administrative Council has
approved the expanded use of rental park-
ing in restricted lots on the NT campus.
Lots numbered 1-15 have been desig-
nated for rental leasing. Parking fees are
$20 annually, $10 spring and $5 summer
for commuters and faculty members.
Dormitory residents will park in dormi-
tory lots at no charge.
The system, already partially in force,
will not be completely in effect until next
year. Still lacking is completion of several
of the parking lots and approval for the
closing of several streets by the city in
accordance with* the university's master
plan.
The council also approved a sticker
system for use in the lots. A green and
white bumper decal with the parking lot
number and space number, the year and.
where appropriate, dormitory name, will
be issued to each user.
tration. His status in the course may be t
changed to the regular system if done by
the end of the last day for adding a course.
Instructors will not be informed as to
the status of those students enrolled under
the pass-fail option. They will grade these l>
students just as the others are graded.
The registrar will indicate if a student
passes or fails the course from the course
grade turned in by the instructor.
The pass-fail system will not affect
scholarship or athletic eligibility. Stu-
dents may not repeat a course under the
pass-fail option if his official grade is
other than W or WP. Transfer students
also are eligible to take courses under the *
pass-fail option.
If a student changes his major and a
course he has taken under the pass tail op-
tion becomes required, it is left up to the
department to decide if the hours count '
toward the requirements for the new
major.
