After, all, the real excuse for any
rule or law is that it will do the
greatest good to the largest number.
In this case, the student body can
not be helped by the imposition of an
unjust fee. Rather than trying to
increase the charges, I think the
faculty and Board of Trustees would
do well to consider ways and means
of emulating the system of our
neighbor, the University of Virginia,
where charges for tuition to state
students have long since been abolished.

WHICH COLLEGE?
Choosing the institution to attend
is , a matter that costs the average
student about to launch his collegiate
career considerable worry and time.
One considers the advantages the va
rious institutions have to offer, the
congeniality of the student body, the
quality of instruction, the degree of
economy that is possible at the insti
tution, and al almost endless number
of other points. .
One tends to emphasize the desira
bility of attending an institution
where evervone know each other.

Our Own Little
Closing-Out Sale
"Forced To Vacate Immediately
All Goods Will Be Sold At Sacrifice
Prices" heralds the herd of dry-goods
stores annually. And such is the an
nual predicament of the Tar Heel
just after elections time. The new
editor has been chosen and we are to
move into the realm of the has-been,

the many orders which we prefer to
overlook rather than to join.

COMES BACK
FAME
Editor o fthe Tar Heel:
Behold Folks! The Don Juan of
Co-Ed fame has come back to us. He
left this story in my office during
early December 1928 when he . was
called to Keely Institute to have his
face lifted. I am sending this in to
the Tar. Heel, not because I want to
challange Don's position with the Co-
Eds, but because I feel it my duty to
the Junior class. Here 'tis:
"Were I a practiced contributor to
your Open Forum, doubtless I would
wait until the last issue of the year to
giye answer to those fair ladies who
have been so deeply touched by my
'ignorance, narrowmindednes, and
bigotry.' Then, during the holidays,
they would forget their ire under the
soothing influence of St. Nicholas,
Sloe Gin, and Page and Shaw's; and
I would be adjudged victor in this
combat. But, being chivalrous, I shal

The Senior Ball given last year is
still remembered by those who at
tended it as one of the best dances
given during the year.
The committee in charge of giving
the dance this year met' in the early
part of the week and after considering
all available dates decided to recom
mend to the executive committee of
the class that the date of the Senior
Dance this year be set at April 19,
two weeks from yesterday.
The date for the class smoker was
set last quarter for April. 17 in order
to obtain Dr. Chase as a speaker.
The dance committee thought that it
would be foolish to call a class meet
ing to consider just the one problem
of a suitable date for the dance.
Feeling that the executive commit
tee of the class was a representative
body we submitted the date to them
and that committee accepted it al
most unanimously.
This being done, the next step is
for " we Seniors to assure ourselves
of a good dance. The committee begs
the Seniors to talk the dance up and
to be sure to write their best girl
friends for dates.
Let's get busy and outdo the class
of '28.

sider that friendships and acquaint
ances are not to be made as readily
and widely at a university as at
small college. In act, one will meet
considerably more students at an in
stitution with a fairly large student
body than at a smaller place, and
the increased number of acquaintances
gives one an opportunity to choose
with more care his friends.
At a university a student comes
daily into contact with leaders in the
various fields of knowledge. Further,
national and international figures in
politics, letters, the arts, and the
other fields are frequent visitors to
the large institutions which enjoy a
wide reputation for leadership.
Students at the University of North
Carolina benefit greatly from asso
ciation with men of established posi
tions in the fields of law, medicine,
the sciences, and letters. Visitors of
note are continually coming to the
campus to speak, to attend confer
ences, or to do special research work.
As for friends, so democratic is the
student body of the University, that
noted educators are forever comment
ing on the spirit of fellowship that
prevails on the Carolina campus.

To the Editor of the Tar Heel: "
I wish to call attention to the pro
posed plan before the faculty to im
pose extra fees for courses taken
above the regular three per quarter.
I cannot see the merits of such a
scheme. It seems to me that the only
important object attained will be to
penalize honest effort. The average
student who registers for four courses
does so because of a desire to do
little more than he is required to do
Maybe there is some exceptional
course lor which he win get ; no
credit, but which he is very desirous
of taking neverthless. This he may
do by registering for four courses in
stead of three. Should ambition of
this type be taxed? I think not.
It may be argued that many stu
dents take extra courses some quart
ers to make up deficient work. Well
What of it? If a student is honest and
conscientious and I hope most of us
are in his -desire to graduate with
his class, why should he be charged
more than his classmates for the same
work they are doing? Then, too, such
deficiencies often arise because of in
tervention of faculty members them
selves. i?or example, almost every
freshman entering college has taken
two courses in some modern foreign
language in high school. When he
comes to register in Memorial Hall
however, the ogre behind the language

he already has credit. As a resul

GIVES OPTIMISTIC
PICTURE OF RUSSIA
Normal Country With People
Like Our Own, Says
Bliss Branham.
Russia is not at all the region of
wide steppes and flaming revolutions
that so many people think it, accord
to Miss Lucy Branham, representa
tive of the American Society for Cul
tural Relations with Russia, who de
scribed her extensive travels in that
country m a lecture here under the
auspices of the American Association
of University Women.
It is, on the contrary, a very nor
mal and thriving country with busi
ness and people like our own and a
real appreciation for art,' she told
a large audience of University stu
dents and Chanel Hill folk, and
proved her claim with a full and com
prehensive moving picture of Russian
life. '
And, she f urther intimated, Amer
ica may learn much from Russia and
the "tremendous cultural things that
are happening there."
Describing scenes shown in the pic
ture, Miss Branham held the atten
tion of her audience for nearly two
hours.
"The' Russian theatre is as great
today as ever, but it is presenting a
slightly different kind of play," she
said in describing Russian art, and
she mentioned the Grand Opera of
Moscow and the famous Russian bal
let. ' :-.
Especially interesting were her de
scriptions of Russian' social legisla
tion, carried further perhaps in that
country than anywhere else.
"Their social insurance is so work
ed out," she said, "that women re
ceive pay while having a child and
until the child is six weeks old, when
it is taken care of m the factory
nursery.
"Russia accepts the fact that it
takes two to support a family of five
and is trying to adapt itself thereto
by social insurance."
She described the other social safe
guards for the worker, the worker's
clubs, and Russian industrialization
and strides in education, in the lat
ter of which the country is success
fully linking its theatre, art, b,".
and museums with its education
system.
The American Society for Cultural
Relations with Russia, she explained
is to link the academic and cultural
interests of the two countries more
closely together. It was founded
three and one half years ago aS(j
since has had a phenorninal growth.

Garbed in a bedraggled suit of
fringed buckskins, his feet clad in
leather moccasins, Gary Cooper, an
erstwhile man, of the mountains, was
"married" recently to Lupe Velez, ex
otic daughter of Old Mexico, in the
reconstructed chapel Bent's Fort, a
famous trading post of the old Southwest.
The simple ceremony was witnes
sed by a motley crowd of trappers,
Indians, pioneer traders, and Mexi
cans; and as the beholders stared
intently while Guy Oliver, veteran of
hundreds of moving picture roles,
read the ritual, a battery of cameras
clicked steadily, for it was all a part
of the Paramount pioneer days' ro
mance, "Wolf Song," which is coming
to the Carolina Theatre for a day's
run, on Monday of next week.
Prominent among the witnesses of
the "wedding" were Louis Wolheim
and Constantine Romanoff who play
the roles of trapper comrades of the
tall and handsome Gary.
Totally lacking in the extravagant
splendor which characterizes many
other screen weddings, the Cooper
Velez "ceremony", is nevertheless more
than amply replete with the vigorous
color and rugged interest of a period
in American history which lends it
self readily to the directorial talents
of Victor Fleming. Under his intel
ligent handling of this story from the
pen of Harvey Fergusson, the rude
but romantic lives of the hearty men
who fought Indians and wooed willing
senoritas with equal enthusiasm the
lives of "he-men," are brought into
living reality for the fullest value that
their rugged beauty can give, in
"Wolf Song." -
