CIO Director Eby
Appeals For Action
In CRIL Lecture
"Hell is filled with good intentions"
was the main theme of CRIL sponsor
ed Kermit Eby, national education
and research director of the C.I.O.
when he spoke on "Labor and Religion"
at Hill Hall Sunday night.
"The two main problems are how
to maintain purchasing power and
whether or not prices and profits are
a public concern," he declared.
"Labor and religion are closely re
lated because you cannot have freedom
for some and deny it to others with
out making religion a , hypocritical
farce," he said.
In an appeal for deeds and not just
high sounding words, Mr. Eby said
"You can always get blueprints for
Utopia, but one of the biggest pro
blems is getting men of good will to
translate abstract ideas into concrete
action."

versity announces that it is holding

State Legislature
Carolina Delegates
Play Active Part
In Annual Meeting
The delegation of approximately 45
Carolina students played a prominen
part in the ninth annual State Stu
dent Legislature held in Raleigh last
Friday and Saturday. The delega
tion was headed by Nina Guard and
Dave Pittman. Bob Morrison, was
elected president of the senate, and
Pittman president pro-tem. Miss
Guard,, was elected speaker pro-tem
of the House. The CPU, Di, Phi
THIPA, an IRC collaborated in send
ing the Carolina .delegation to the
State capitoL Representatives from
all the major colleges and universities
in North Carolina participated in the
two-day meet.
The Carolina delegation became the
most active group on the floors as
Guard and Pittman drew up a slate
of officers whiqh won almost over
whelming support. The fireworks of
the two-day session began when Buddy
Glenn, vice-president of the IRC, and
John Lineweaver, president of the
CRIL, respectively introduced and
seconded a bill to allow the Negro col
leges of North Carolina to send dele
gates to the Tenth Annual Student
Legislature. Discussion of the bill was
postponed until Saturday morning
when a second caucus was called to
discuss the measure. At that time
Carolina's Jimmy Wallace, president
of the Interdormitory Council, and
Douglass Hunt, Speaker of the Caro
lina student legislature, arrived to
support the bill. After a fiery discus
sion dominated by' the Carolina dele
gation, the jointly convened House
and Senate , voted 110 to 48 to admit
colored delegates,' The Carolina dele
gation did not . support the measure
as a group, and the vote from other
schools was sufficient to pass the
measure, even with the exclusion of
all Carolina votes.
Thad Eure, Secretary of State,
learned of the action and arrived to
urge the Assembly to rescind its ac
tion. After Eure finished his appeal,
Frances Privette of Carolina intro
duced a successful motion to thank the
Secretary of State and adjourn.
At the caucus which preceded the
session, addresses were made by Gov
ernor Gregg Cherry; Eure; and Chan
cellor J. W. Harrelson, Rev. W. B.
Bedford, and Prof. Edwin H. Paget
of State College.

cerning "World Government," "Con
solidation of the University of North
Carolina," "Tariff Barriers," "Bul-
winkle Bill," and "The G. I. Bill."
After the final adjournment, the
delegates were entertained at a tea.

Famed Mayo Surgeon
Drives Med Students
To Army-Navy Contest
Two students at the University
Medical School were astonished to
find they had .gotten a ride while
hitch-hiking Friday with Dr. Charles
Mayo prominent physician of the
Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn.
The second year medical stu
dents, Lane Stokes and Clifton
West, were hitch-hiking from Ral
eigh to the Army-Navy game in
Philadelphia. Dr. Mayo drove up
beside them offering them a ride to
Washington. He introduced himself
and his wife merely as Dr. and Mrs.
Mayo. Exactly who they were did
not occur to either of the pas
sengers until Mrs. Mayo referred to
her husband as "Chuck."
Stokes then remembered the
Minnesota license of the car and
realized with whom they were rid
ing. He said, "They took us to din
ner and Dr. Mayo told us a lot
about the work in the Clinic. When
we got out in Washington, he told
us to work hard, and he hoped he
would meet us again some day."
New Class Bill
Set Next Term
Saturday Hours Cut
For Winter Session
All undergraduate courses for the
winter quarter will meet five hours a
week and there will be no Saturday
classes for undergraduates, according
to a decision of the Faculty Committee
on Instruction made last week.
Previously there have been both
three and five hour classes during the
quarter sessions. The committee, how
ever, decided a better balanced and
more complete schedule could be work
ed out on an all five hour basis.
Any exceptions to the proposed
schedule must be passed on by the in
struction committee, of which Dean
A. W. Hobbs, head of the College of
Arts and Sciences, is chairman.
On The Hour
Classes will meet on the hour, as
they have this term. There has been
some speculation that the first two
periods of the day would meet at 8:30
and 9:30 a.m., with a free half hour
or all students from 10:30 to 11
'clock every morning. The commit-
ee's action eliminates this pre-war
coke session."
Next term's schedule sheet will list
more nearly balanced number of 8
and 12 o'clock classes than has been
the custom .during terms immediately
passed.
Hours carried by the majority of
students next session will be 15, or
hree five-hour courses.' Physical edu
cation will be required for coeds.
$raphy. The play will be the second
major production to be presented by
the Playmakers in this, their 28th
season.

duction and admission is $.93 or by

lighting to provide an unusual back
ground for the production.

ing will be held next Tuesday night
