"By Announcement
By Mary Hill Gaston
,.. Kitty Kelly, chairman of the War Coordination Board sponsoring the
"Miss Victory" bond-selling contest to begin January 15, has cleared up the
"Foolish Nobody's James" mystery causing considerable head-scratching on
campus this week.
"Foolish Nobody's James" is the
name of the Navy, plane which, it is
hoped, will be purchased by war bonds
bought at Carolina during the drive.
For the past three days showers of
mysterious slips of paper with "Fool
ish Nobody's James," "25000," and
with pictures of planes on them, have
been found all over the campus. The
figures, Kitty revealed, stand for
$25,000, the. cost' of the plane, and
the goal in the drive.
A bond and stamp-selling booth
will open at 8 o'clock Monday morn
ing, January 15, in the "Y" and will
remain open every weekday until 5
o'clock through February 14, when
the drive will officially end. Plans
call for the selection of the Carolina
pin-up girl, the Miss Victory" of the
campus, through votes cast with
stamp and bond purchases.
Every ten-cent stamp entitles the
purchaser to one vote and in the case
of war bonds, the maturity value will
be the marker for the number of
votes. Votes may be cast at the "Y"
at the time of purchase or in the case
of coeds, with dorm representatives
who will sell stamps from room to
room. . Photographs of -contestants for
the "Miss Victory" title - will be dis
played in the "Y." .
Every" f raternityi sorority and
dormitory on the campus, and - the
C.I.C. A. have been invited to partici
pate in the contest by sponsoring a
candidate for "Miss Victory." A fee
of one dollar will be levied on each
entry in the race. Deadline for entries
is midnight tomorrow .night. ..They
should be submitted to Kitty Kelly at
second floor Carr or to Dal Davis in
Pettigrew before this time. A list of
entries will be published in the next
issue of the Tar Heel.
The winner in the contest will be
honored at a mammoth "Miss Vic
tory" dance Saturday night, Febru
ary 17, in the gym. Freddie Johnson
is expected to play for the dance and
$1.00 in war stamps will be the ad
mission charge. Coeds sponsored in
the contest will make up the figure,
which will feature the winner, "Miss
Victory," and the. two runners-up.
Servicemen are to buy their stamps
and bonds at the "Y" booth, which
will be staffed: by coed volunteers.
Coeds and civilians may buy theirs
from dorm representatives or at the
"Y." A booth wifl be set up in Navy
Hall in the Pre-Flight area at least
one afternoon a week for cadets to
buy stamps and bonds and to vote for
the contesting coeds. .
In the "Y" a cardboard plane will
be colored from day to day. as bond
purchases are made, to show how
near the goal is being approached;
Three Fraternities
For Rushing
Following a thorough . investigation
by the executive committee of the
Interf fraternity Council and the ap
proval oi the council, three t Greek
letter fraternities on the campus

ing -rules during the past silence pe
riod. , , ,
The case brought against one fra
ternity concerned giving a freshman
a ride from Chapel Hill to his home
in South Carolina during Christmas
holidays. The freshman, from the
same home town as the fraternity
man, was given a ride with no inten
tion of rushing and fraternities were
not mentioned during the trip. Mem
bers of two other fraternities rode in
the car also, but they did not know
the freshman until they were intro
duced asthey entered the car. Neither
did they realize that the boy was a
freshman until they were weir on
their way, The executive committee

Legislature
Thrashes Out
Council Bill
Speaker Hunt
Blames Matter
On Tar Heel
In a hot session, marked by mis
understandings, the Student Legisla
ture passed, ' Thursday night, an
amendment to the Student Council
providing for the election of holdover
members of the Student Council. .
The amendment, brought forth by
a misinterpretation of the original act,
provides that in the case of disquali
fication from office "of any member
of the Student Council a holdover
shall be elected by and from the group
(civilians, V-12's, Marines, or ROTCs)
that elected him.
Ed Gaither, chairman of the elec
tions: committee announced that all
nominations for the current vacancy
to be filled by a Marine must be turn
ed in to him before 6 p. m. Tuesday,
at Iredell HalLi Ti e-new-coraicit mem
ber will replace Marine Tom Lane,
who has left school.
During the course of the debate,
Gaither, a V-12er, commented vehe
mently on what he thought to be un
fair, editorial practices by Charles
Wickenberg, TarHeel editor. Gaither
explained that Wickenberg had used
the editorial columns of last Saturday's
Tar Heel for personal grudges.
Speaker Doug Hunt also explained
that the claim of the discovery of a
flaw in the Elections Act by the Tar
Heel was unfounded, and that in fact,
Libba Wiggins, Chairman of the Ways
and Means Committee, had discovered
the mistake, and had reported it to
Wickenberg, who then telephoned to
Hunt in Durham to straighten out the
situation. Several members of the
Legislature commented that the Tar
Heel's headline was a mis-statement
and a slap in the face of the Legisla
ture. At the next meeting, Thursday
evening, , the Legislature will discuss
the bill providing for the setting up
of a class organization for the stu
dents graduating in June.
Tar Heei Staff
There will be an, important meet
ing of the Tar Heel staff Monday
afternoon at five o'clock in the Ro
land Parker lounge of Graham
Memorial
ruled that the f reshman could not be
rushed by that fraternity until March
1 of this year. , , .
A second case was brought against
a' fraternity in regard to violations
of the rushing rules. Five members
of the fraternity were seated with a
freshman in the Campus Cafe Friday
night after rushing hours. Another
member of the same fraternity en
tered, saw that the other boy was a
freshman; and asked him .to leave
since there was a silence on all
freshmen. The boy left, and members
of another fraternity asserted that
the freshman had not been seated
with the fraternity men over five
minutes and that there was no talk
about any fraternity. The committee
felt that nd benefit had been con
veyed, A fine of $10 was placed on
the fraternity. - -

Coed Senate
Provides For
New Council
Majority Votes
To Pass Bill
On Tuesday night the Coed Senate
passed by a 9-4 vote a bill organizing
a personality council.
The provisions of the bill, as pre
sented by the ways and means com
mittee, were that a personality coun
cil should be set up in coordination
with the Woman's Honor Council and
the Dormitory House Councils, and
that the council should function for
one calendar year. At the end of that
time the Senate will vote for continu
ance, dissolution, or transferal of the
activity to some other organization
within the Woman's Government.
During debate on the proposed
council, Marian Gurney explained that
"any girl who comes to Carolina as a
student agrees to abide by its rules,
and if she breaks her contract, there
must be a reason for it. It is the
Council's responsibility to find the
source of her trouble or discontent."
The underlying principle of this
council designed to correct a weakness
of most woman's governments, is pro
tection for the individual as well as
for society.- Thus its success will place
our woman's government among the
most progressive, in any southern uni
versity, i -
The Speaker appointed a commit
tee composed of Tharon Young, Pat
Hughes, and Dixie Jean Bodge to study
the dormitory house councils, and to
make -recommendations for improve
ments in the system. , . .-.
The next meeting of the Coed Sen
ate will be held Tuesday, January 16,
at which- time the various, subsidiary
organizations will present their yearly
reports. , a ,
Presented to the. Senate were, three
new , member f Viola "Hoyle and. Ida
Prince, Junior representatives, and Pat
Hughes! senior, vice-presiden of the
Woman's Government Association.
