Pare Four THE TAR HEEL Thursday, October 25, 1928 Hash and Mothballs By Joe Jones Believing that onr aim has been ac complished, we challenge any paper or magazine to equal our paper in this respect. We wouldi howevev, like to call your attention to a few f the paper's characteristics which go into making it especially easy to read on class. Unlike the Woman's Home Com' pardon or the Congressional Record it may be easily folded so as to fit comfortably into the hip-pocket. Co-eds" and others wTio haven't any hip-pocket may carry it in the vest pocketour slogan being, " Every edi tion a hip-pocket or . vest-pocket edi tion." ' . -v-.;,: - If carried in the pocket with a plug of chewing tobacco it will absolutely not contaminate that southern delicacy as every bit of raw paper used in the manufacture of the Tar Heel is pas teurized before it' leaves the Maine woods. Illustrated Talk Will Be Given By Metzenthin Tonight at 7:30 anillustrated talk will be given in Phillips Hall by Dr. E. C. Metzenthin about his travels through Central Europe last summer. Fully acquainted with the peoples The Tar Heel stall has bent every effort toward putting out a publica tion that may be conveniently read on class, as we feel that such a publica tion is the student's most crying need, "hand countries of Central Europe from several decades of living and studying there,- he has kept up his knowledge and understanding of them by three vacation trips which took him through all parts of Western and Central Europe from Ireland to Austria. - In his first lecture he will talk es pecially about Austria and Southern Germany, under the auspices of the German Club (Deutsches Verein). All those interested in the present conditions of these, two countries are cordially invited to attend. ARMY EXTENSION CLASSES TO BE ORGANIZED HERE Moreover, all the printer's ink we use is filtered by - a special process of elimination before it leaves the Oklahoma inkwells. . All our printing . is . done at the Orange Print Shop, which is recog nized as the most sanitary shop on the Hill. No workman in the establishment is allowed to 'spit on his hands, no matter how hot the Open Forum let ters get, and the printer's devil is un der'bond to clean his teeth and toe nails with Bon Ami six times before each meal, three times before retir ing, and twice before getting up. Above all, the news for the Tar Heel is collected and classified by clean-minded reporters only. : These boys love their work. It is their hobby. Some people collect stamps or rent for a hobby, but these boys collect news; arid they will not pick up anything unless it is clean." '-Which proves conclusively that it is absolutely sanitary to catry a copy of the Tar Heel in the pocket with a plug of chewing tobacco. ' A meeting will be held tonight at 7:30 o'clock in the lower laboratory Of Davie Hall annex for the purpose of the organization of the Army Ex tension, classes. W. P. Brandon who is a first lieutenant of the ' United States Reserve Army will be in charge of the' Infantry classes. On. the following Thursday another meeting will be held in the same place and at the same time for the purpose of the organization of the-Calvary classes which will also be held by the Army Extension Division. Captain Hunter, regular officer of the Army, who is stationed at Raleigh, N. C- will be in charge of these classes, i All men who are interested in the work of the Infantry classes are urg ed to be present at the meeting to- nierht All those interested in : the work of the Calvary classes are urg ed to be present at the meeting next Thursday, evening. The Inf rantry and the Calvary classes willl.be held on alternating Thursday evenings. Senators from East Hold Short Session NEWWCATIONAL -MEREST BLANK ' NOW BEING USED Is Work ofpr. E. K. Strong, Jr., of Stanford Uni - versity. ATTENTION BAND MEN The hour of the rehearsal for Thursday night at the Tin Can has been changed to 8:33 be cause of conflicts. 5 All men must attend this re hearsal in order to be eligible to play Saturday. Also please notice, that any article unfinished on the front page is al ways continued on the back page so that the reader, to finish a story, will not have to attract the attention of the prof by opening the paper up. - Note also that for the clas3-readers convenience, all the best news, , to gether with the pretty,pictures of the football players, is placed on the front page. The extra heavy literature material, such as editorials and columns, is placed on the inside of the paper. Thi3 should be read only when lying down, as otherwise there is danger of having reader's dyspepsia or the dreaded mystery disease, known as litterotti-intelligentseeah. Some college students become' en slaved by this disease, and it is usually fatal to freshmen. Symptoms of the malady are pro longed spells of morbidness, during which spells the victim dreams of the classic Lovers floating through Hell, cf Socrates saying, "Lord, make me beautiful within," and of old Sim Si mons and young Sim Simons thread ing the Straits of Gibraltar with a long slender piece of greasy spaghetti. So terrible are ravages of litterotti intelligentseeah that the eyes of its victims become set in the sockets so that they can look only , straight ahead or down at the. ground, and become entirely unable to see . anyone met upon the street. The sufferer has a rabid horror of . razors or of having anything tied v around his neck except a napkin or a millstone, -; ' The Philanthropic Assembly held its usual 'meeting Tuesday evening, and confined itself strictly,to immedi ate business. The meeting was then adjourned in order to allow the Sena tors to hear General Cox, who spoke last night in Gerrard Hall. General Cox was a member of the Phi assem bly while at the University. William Bass of Mt. Holly was initi ated in to the Assembly. A committee was appointed to arrange for the Mary D. Wright debate. Resolutions to be discussed at the next meeting are as follows: t v ' 1. Resolved: That Freshmen must continue attending football games in a group, wearing white trousers. 2. Resolved : That Al Smith should be supported by North Carolina. Midnight Show at Carolina Friday More excitement will be contribut ed to the coming week-end when Olive Borden in "Virgin Lips" is shown at the Carolina at a special midnight show on the eve of the big game. "Virgin Lips" is reputed one of the hottest pictures to be presented here in many a moon. There are scenes in it which, well, whichmust be seen to be appreciated. Midnight shows have proven ex tremely 'popular with Carolina stu dents. . More collegiate color attends these special showings than is evi denced for almost any other occasion. A number of supplementary presen tations had to be made the last time a Midnight Show was announced, since the crowd could not be accomo dated at one time. Friday evening the regular show ing of Street Angel will.be present ed.. The picture is bein held over for a second day because of its im portance. It" is one of the most pop ular, pictures of the year. Observers who deplore the lack of political issues, should notice what" is going out under congressional franks. Boston Herald. The Bureau of Vocational Informa tion is now experimenting with the new Vocational Interest Blank of Dr. Edward K. Strong, Jr., Professor of Psychology at Stanford University. The nature of this blank is such that it attempts to tabulate the interests of the. person tested. On the basis of the inf ormation given, the person may be scored for some particular occu pation and be given the rating A, B or C." t'A" rating means that one has the interests of the occupation j "C" rating that one does not have the interests of the occupation and "B" rating that he "may or may not have the interests of the occupation. For several years Dr. Strong has devoted a large part ;of his time to working out sets of scales for scoring this blank in a number of occupations. He first gave -the test to a large num ber of successful men in each of sev eral occupations and found that the interests of those in the different groups varied in certain definite ways As a result of these findings, he created the scales which are now used ( for scorinng , the blanks. The Bureau now has scales 'for scoring a person as a lawyer, minister, psy chologist, certified public accountant, advertiser, architect, chemist, journ alist, teacher and engineer. Other scales may be ordered later. Dr. Strong is now experimenting with this blank on undergraduates at Stanford. Officials at a large num ber of the' leading colleges and uni versities of the country are doing the same. The test gives one piece of definite inf ormation to the under graduate. If he scores high (gets an "A" rating) as a lawyer, for instance, he has expressed relatively the same interests as haye 274 successful law yers ; if he Scores low (gets a "C" rating), he does not possess the same interests as does this group of law yers. On the basis of his investiga tions, Dr. Strong feels justified in telling the undergraduate who gets an "A" rating that the probability is that he will make a good lawyer. The Bureau puts very little confi dence in the results of this test as yet, but considers it an interesting experiment .which must prove its worth over a period of time. It may be added, however, that the results obtained so, far seem to indicate that there is at least more than the ele ment of chance involved. . A fee of twenty-five cents is charged for a report in any one oc cupation and twenty cents is charged for each additional report. This charge is made simply to cover ex penses. " Any student who wishes to take this test, or who is interested in find ing out more about it, may do so by coming by 204 South Building.

Alumni Association Meets in December - At a recent meeting of the board of directors of the Alumni Associa tion, the annual business meeting of this body was set for December 7 and 8 in Chapel Hill, it was announc ed by Maryon Saunders, Alumni Sec retary, yesterday, V Several years ago the Alumni As sociation held its business meetings sometime during Commencement, but owing to festivities, class reunions, and graduation which took place then, the time was changed to au tumn. The meeting is the constitutional convention of the Alumni Association, and, according to Secretary Saunders, Alumni delegates from the various clubs, all over the country will be here for the discussions and business meeting. There are 34 chartered clubs in the state, in addition to a host of unchartered ones, that, will be represented.

STUDENT THROWN PROM HIS HORSE Wisconsin and other states where it so behooves him. He hasn't appeared down here yet, and the Republicans have said nothing. The anti-Smiths say that he i3 dry. "Every man has a right to have a bottle in his hip pocket they both say. Smith says:; '111 take my coat off so you can see it,' Hoover says: 'IH keep mine on. The same frankness charac terizes Smith's stand on every issue," he said. v -: ' . ; - General Cox extolled state progress under Democartic rule since 1900. He flayed Republican scandals 'and cor ruption in Harding's cabinet, and said that Dr. Hubert Work has, by accusa tion oi the attorney general, been pro ven to have been "a party to that in defensible act of corruption attemp ted: by Fall in 1922." Carolina Students Will Decide yTheir Presi dential Choice Today (Continued from page one) a vote by its students. In a recent vote taken at Salem College, Smith captured the women's vote by a ma jority of thirty, obtaining one hun dred votes. However Hoover retalia ted by receiving 19 out of the 23 bal lots from the; faculty. So Democrats and Republicans, prepare your ballots on the morrow for 'your presidential candidate. Vot ing will only continue from 10 a. ,m. until 5 p. m. Hoover Favored By ' Di for Presidency (Continued from page one) In defending the Republican can didate and his party Senator Nor wood stated that the Republican party has always been the party of busi ness. "The South is so far behind that she thinks she is in front," he declared. He asserted that it would be a good thing for North Carolina to go Republican and show the other southern states that she is independ ent of precedent. In corroborating the position of Senator Norwood, . Senator . Brown pointed out that Alfred Smith has made a good record as a great gov ernor of a great state, whereas Her bert Hoover has gained fame as a great Secretary of Commerce. In consideration of the volume of Hoover's experience he stated that the votes of far-minded citizens should be cast for the Republican candidate. Senator " Bledsoe again took the floor and declared that he had no respect for the leaders of the Repub lican party. He called attention to He loses all fear of speeding auto mobiles, however, and often walks calmly right into their path. As. was. stated in last Tuesday's Tar Heel, he is prone to crawl off and di3 ia the Bull's Head Bookshop. Eor ;' awhile the scourge was be IIcTtsd to be incurable, but doctors and Czzm: have discovered that if the Es3at is dismissed from colleger and scait&cfc to his home town he quickly recovers. This is the only known curev Ci" warned before it is too late, and ds not read the inside of the Tar Heel unless you are in a comfortable reclining position. We would also like to request that all men who are in the habit of writ ing on slickers or on walls be careful with their punctuation. Bad punctuation often distorts the meaning and leaves a wrong impres sion. " What a peculiar impression of Mother Hubbard we would have got ten if the man who wrote the story about her had punctuated it wrong. Like this, for instance: "Old Mother Hubbard went to the cupboard to get her poor dog. A bone, when she got there, the cupboard was. Bear and the poor dog had none.'.' The Delta Tau .Delta fraternity initiated Dr." Earl Runyon Tyler of Durham, North Carolina, last Mon day night. , Dr. Tyler graduated from the Uni versity with the class 'of 1920. He was a member of the local frater nity Delta Psi Delta and was instru mental in securing a charter from Delta Tau Delta. , Dr. Tyler is the last of the members of Delta Psi Delta to be initiated into Delta Tau Delta. ;. . . ; " " : After leaving the University -he continued his studies in the north, and later practiced medicine in Penn sylvania. He is now located in Dur ham, where he has become quite a prominent physician. The fraternity gave a supper for Dr. Tyler immediately after the ini tiation. " '' Now is the time to subscribe to the TAR HEEL. A near serious ' accident occurred on Pittsboro Street yesterday morn ing at eight o'clock. Two stjudents taking their early morning horseback ride were gallop ing swiftly down the road when the horses became frightened at a can vas-sheltered car parked in front of Best House and halted suddenly. Kissler, one of the . riders, was thrown from his saddle and i hurled headlong into the road. He was quite unconscious when picked up by E. D. , Fysal and several other occu pants of Best House who had rushed to the scene. The young man was not seriously injured, . however. He soon recovered and was able to walk down town with his companion, the two horses having moved off to parts un known. Cox Addresses Student Body (Continued from page one) United States the finest place in the world." ' General Cox was introduced by Obie Harmon, commander of the local post of the American Legion. "Pro hibition in North Carolina has been for the progress of the people and State," General Cox declared. Gover nor Smith has never seen the vir tues of prohibition as we . have ad ministered it. He has lived in New York and has seen the worst condi tions that have been the outgrowth there." And he added that Smith would never have the power to amend the constitution; that power lies only with the people. The- only diff erence between Hoover and Smith on the issue, lie said, ia that Bmlth is frank and open in htt ttand." "Hoover fe wet fa Calif oniia in the fact that during Woodrow Wil son's administration there was more money in circulation -than now and yet no oil scandal occurred. "If you want a change, vote for Smith; if you are satisfied with the status quo, vote for Hoover," asserted the Sena tor. v - Senator' McPherson stated that Al fred Smith rose from the sidewalks of (New York and has been a true Democrat from the time that he en tered politics. "It took Hoover fifty four years to decide whether he would be a Republican or a Democrat and he doesn't know yet whether he is wet or dry," asserted the speaker. In defending Hoover, Senator Alex ander pointed out, that the Republi can; candidate brought together the resources of the entire world by 'his food administration during the war. He reminded his fellow senators, how ever, that no one party can be held responsible for the events of a war. He referred to Hoover's success as an engineer and as Secretary of Com merce.. ' - ' .--- ' "Any Republican" who says any thing about Tammany Hall should look into the corruption of his own party," declared Senator White. He pointed out that Alfred Smith has the confidence of the legislative body of New York and would gain the con fidence of the legislative-body of the United States, if chosen president. The' vote of the senate favored Hoover for the presidency by a mar gin of two votes. f FLOOR WAXING DONE Let experienced students do your floor waxing with electri cal equipment. Reasonable rates.
