Meetings were called in the coed dormitories last Monday to . discuss these problems and the presidents of the dormitories and the sorority house managers met Thursday afternoon to report on the reaction in the dormitories and sororities to these questions. The WGA Cabinet has taken its -stand afteF- weighing and considering these reports. Duncan States Ruth Duncan, president of WGA, has made the following statement We do not feel that the import problem is within our jurisdiction The general opinion of the coed is that they would like for the fraternity houses to have the same closing hours for imports as the coeds have. Coeds have been criticized for the conduct of the imports." "We would like to state that we are sympathetic with the fraternities in their post-war reorganization and adjustment, but general coed opinion indicates that they would like for the fraternities to have housemothers. The mere fact of having a house mother would not be a solution with in itself, but they would create a better atmosphere. We would like to see this move come from the fra ternities and we know that some of the fraternities are investigating fa cilities for prospective housemothers. We definitely recommend that the House Privileges Board include in their rules that all lights be kept on in the rooms of the fraternity houses. Furthermore, we think that each fraternity man should feel responsible See WOMAN'S, page 6. German Civilians Will Starve Unless Helped, By Olive "The Germans are hard up for everything," said Capt. Dexter Freeman, home on a 55-day furlough from Berlin, the Public Relations Service of the Office of Military Government. Capt. Freeman, who is from Creedmoor, gave an informal talk Wednesday morning to journalism students in the rooma where he, too, once typed stories, be fore his graduation in 1938. "Winter has added new hardships," he went on, "and many, many Ger mans will starve unless something drastic is done. Most civilians eat Only one meal a day now. The hand ing of civilian administrative prob- ems like rationing is mostly left to the Germans, but since there simply isn't enough food there, much of it comes from Allied supplies." Berlin Crowded , As for. housing, Berlin is terribly crowded, what with many residential sections bombed out and with the add ed necessity for quartering Allied government personnel. "Often one finds six or seven families in one house." - "But with all the suffering, Ger many is still a land of music," said Dean Bradshaw Resigns Position In University Decides To Enter Private Enterprise; Roland Parker Expected Hack Soon Dr. Francis Foster Bradshaw, Dean of Students since 1920 at the University, Professor of Philosophy, and since 1940 Dean of the College for War Training, will not resume his duties at the University when he completes this month a special assignment with the War Department, which assignment has been in process "The Messiah To Be Given Tomorrow Orchestra To Play For Choral Club By Arnold Dolin Handel's greatest of all oratorios, 'The Messiah," will be presented by he Chapel Hill Choral Club tomorrow night at 8:30 p.m. in Hill Hall. After having been omitted here for about ten years, the work was given last Christmas and is being given again this year by popular request. One of the most notable features of the production is the entire use of local talent. All of the soloists are on the campus this year. They are: Ruth Webb Bailey, soprano; Virginia Mason, soprano; Gwen Hughes, alto; William Kirkpatrick, tenor; and Gwynn McPeek, bass. Perhaps the best known of these is kirkpatrick, who is in great demand in nearby communities to sing solos in various oratorios. Previously he was a student of Mr. Toms here and then in 1944 he went to New York to study with Edgar Schofield. Before leaving here, he sang a solo part in the Bach "Magnificat." At present he is a student of Paul Young and sings regularly every Sunday as soloist in the Duke Chapel. McPeek, while studying under Dr, Haydon for his Doctor's degree, is teaching voice in the Department of Music as an Assistant in Music. He received his B.S. Degree in Education with a major in Vocal Music from Ohio State University and later his Master in Musicology at Indiana Uni versity. McPeek also studied under a scholarship at Harvard University, Orchestra To Accompany The Choral Club will be accompanied in the performance by the University Symphony Orchestra conducted by Paul Young. With an excellent group of violinists headed by the concert master, Willis Gates, as a nucleus, the orchestra adds a great deal of inter est to the chorus's rendition of the music. "The Messiah" abounds in arias and choruses, including the fam ous "iiauemjah," and Mr. Youngs interpretation of it is well-known. His direction provides contrasts with soft flowing passages punctuating the more robust sections. Says Freeman Ann Burns where he is in the news division of the young officer. "One can see it in German faces, feel it in the air. There are three major opera houses going strong now, in patched-up buildings, it is true, but with excellent musi cians. Not long ago I saw a produce tion of Beethoven's "Fidelio" which would even show up the New York Philharmonica." "And small entertainment houses are billing top actors for their pro grams, since no big legitimate theaters or movie companies are producing." Movies Good Capt. Freeman thinks the German movies are excellent entertainment if one is fortunate enough to know the language. "The photography is splen did. There is something of the French in their films, there is the English re straint and some of the showiness of See GERMAN, page 6. since March 1945, but will enter upon private work in industrial psychology m JNew York City. The announcement was made yes terday by President Frank P. Gra ham and Chancellor R. B. House after a conference with Dr. Bradshaw in which he made known hi3 decision to leave the University and continue the line of his special psychological and business interests. Committee Picked The replacements and reorganiza tions made necessary by the loss of a University official so long and so in timately connected with this institu tion are being most carefully consid ered by the University through a spe cial committee headed by Dean C. P. Spruill, Jr., Chancellor House said. In the meantime, Dr. E. L. Mackie, who has been Dean of Men since 1944, will direct the Division of Student Welfare; Colonel Carlyle Shepard, Assistant Dean of the College for War Training, will direct that Division in , its special work with veterans; and other special services to students, such as counselling, vocational placement, and testing, will be directed through the Department of Education with Dr. S. W. J. Welch and Dr. W. D. Perry in charge of special psycho logical services. Vacancy To Be Filled The vacancy in the Department of Philosophy will be filled in due course after a study of that department's special needs. Roland Parker, instructor in social science and, for a time Dean of Men under Dr. Bradshaw, has returned from service in India and China with the American Red Cross, and is now on vacation with his brother in Rocky Mount. He is expected to return to his regular duties as teacher of social science and in addition to assist in the pressing work of counselling vet erans for which by training and war service he is especially fitted, the an nouncement said. HPB Imposes Fines On Two Fraternities For Coed Violations Fines imposed on two fraterni ties for violations of the coed visit ing privileges agreement were an nounced yesterday by the House Privileges Board. In case one, two coeds were found in a fraternity house in the pres ence of drinking. The fraternity was fined $25. In case two, three coeds were found drinking in a fraternity house. The fraternity was fined $40 and its coed visiting privileges were suspended until January 1, 1946. The three coeds were re ferred to the Women's Honor Coun cil for action. The two cases were heard before the House Privileges Board last Tuesday. The HPB inspection was held on December 7. The House Privileges Board does not confine itself to imposing set , fines for different violations of the coed visiting privileges agreement, but renders its decisions on the basis of circumstances peculiar to each case. The Board is composed of Art Adams, acting chairman; Lib Scho field, speaker of the Coed Senate; Ruth Duncan, president of WGA; Viola Hoyle and Betty Barnes, members of the Coed Senate; Betty Haughton, coed representative at large; Walt Brinkley, president of the Interfraternity Council; Pete Pully, Mariotte Stewart, and Jim Burdin, IFC members.
