JOE HOLIDAY
Holiday Replaces
Aldridge asPrexy
At a recent called meeting of
the Cooperative Government, Wil
ma Williams, vice-prcsident, read
a letter from Gordon Aldridge in
which he resigned his position as
president of the Cooperative As
sociation. Mr. Aldridge stated in
his letter that for personal reasons
and the fact that other duties kept
him from giving the time to his
position that he thought it required,
he would like for he students to
accept his resignation. He also
offered his services in any capacity
and at any time they might be
needed.
Since the constitution contains
definite stipulations as to the num
ber of members on the Executive
Board, it was necessary to elect
a new president for the remaindei;
of the year. The Executive Board
nominated Edvan Thompson and
Joe Holliday and the students nom
inated Madeline Denning by peti
tion,
Joe Holliday won the election
and was sworn in by Mr. Case at
a chapel assembly.
Mr. Holliday will serve as presi
dent of the Cooperative Associa
tion until the president for 1942-
4.^ is elected in the spring elections
to be held the first of April.
Elmer Oettinger
Speaks on
Brotherhood
l-ioeal Radio
Commentator
Addresses School
In observance of National Bro
therhood Week, Elmer R. Oet-
tmger, Jr., local radio commentator,
delivered an address in the Howard
Chapel on February 18, on the-
subject of brotherhood. At the
beginning he said that "one of the
must malignant bacteru in the
world today breeds on the very
flesh and spirit of brotherhood. A
barterium which, if not directly
causing stnfe among mankind, at
least is instrumental m prevrnting
a universal understanding and
good will among men."
Mr. Clettinger said that brother
hood of man is priceless— indispen.
sable to the progress, to the happi'
ness, and to the peace of the world
He stated that Americans have
made the only original contribution
toward promoting world brother-
hcxxi in the l.ist 500 years with
the establishment of democratic
government. A new importance,
a new freedom, a new character
and a new faith have been given to
the individual and, with this, a
hope and an example has been set
for the peoples of the world.
According to the commentator,
each age has its own unique prob
lems of brotherhood, for it is not
a static concept. It changes with
the time. He stated an example of
the struggle of the pcxir against the

Kciviitly there has hrcn a gixxi
d»-al of discusuon im tlie prraent
MtuatuMi ol thi- I’INE KNOT.
MiKh o( wlut ha* takrn pUce i*
>4d history to tlv- student* by now.
Hi-re IS the gisl of wlut did lake
place.
Several weeks ago the regular
Friday mf>rning chapel pnigram
wa* turned over to the PINE
KNOT and to a ducuMion of how
the utuatKm was to he remedied.
Mis* Beard, editor of the PINE
KNOT, minced no wiird* when she
told the atudent* how financul
matter* stixid.
Said Mis* IV'ard, "Student*, we
have before a dra*tic utuation -*o
drastK tliat I hardly think many of
you realise the senou*ne*( of it.
We have approximately five hun
dred and twenty-five dollar* m the
fund. Why, the printer'* bill
alimc I* much more than that. , . .
l>o you realiu that it i* the twen
tieth ol February and not a unglc
ad ha* been (old? The prmten arc
even now asking for the ad copy
^nd not one cent's wiKrth ha* been
•old "
Promptly variou* method* and
•theme* were suggested Finally,
fn>m the deluge of friendly sugge*-
114 ins tlut followed one plan wa*
deemed belter than the other*. One
Uusine** Manager was to be elect
ed from each class Then at an open
election a "chairman" or "head"
busine** manager wa* to be elect
ed to rcpUcc (-harle* Eagle*, who
liad traruferred to Duke.
All of you know the re*ult* of
the election Frtim the aenior cla**
Rachel Clover wa* elected, from
llic junior cla**- Margaret Farm
er, from the aophomore cla**—Til-
lie Townaend, and from the fre*h-
man cla**-^ Jeanne Hilley By pop
ular vote of the enure student bo
dy Mim Tillie Towruend was elect
ed Busine** Manager of the PINE
KNC5T
Let It suffice to say that Mu*
Townsend, along with her a**i*t'
ariu, ha* done a *plendid job. She
(and her a**i*Unt ad teller, Jeanne
Hilley) ha* aold around nine pagea
of advertiaemeni* m thi* limited
length of time. .She promptly put
her other two asautant* to the taak
of collecting money for the organ
ization pictures. Smce then Tillie
T<Jwn*end ha* cu**ed and diacua*-
ed the problem in chapcl, pounded
the pavement*, figured and (wett
ed until she begin* to tee the light.
But student* after all the sto
ry I* hardly begun. There i* a heap
of work and worrying (till for
ihnae m a poniion to do it. You
can't even begin to knew the hour*
that they, ak)ng with Mr. Jarman,
tear their hair in agony over it all.
Miss Beard, editor of the PINE
KSCJT, made the following state
ment to a reporter of thi* paper:
"Frankly, here i* what I think
each (tudent on the campu* of At
lantic Chri(tun Callege *hould do.
"Fir*t they *hould pay every
cent that they t>we to the PINE
KNOT and (econd, take off your
hat u> Mi*( Tilbe Townaend and
her co-worker* for it really i* they
whom you have tn thank—if you
get your PINE KNOT of fourty,
two."
