Top Sweet Band

Charlie Spivak, billed as "The Man
Who Plays The Sweetest Trumpet in
the World," is noted for his effortless
playing. When performing in "Pin-
Up Girl" he was told to puff his cheeks
and feign strenuous activity because
the dii2ctor felt that the ease with
which he played did not look authentic.
He never uses a mute even while play

Tuesday Set
For Beginning
Daily Paper
Comics, World News
Other New Features
This is the last issue of the semi
weekly Tar Heel. Starting Tuesday
morning the Daily Tar Heel will be
delivered to dormitories and other dis
tribution points every day in the week
except Monday.
Included in the daily will be de
tailed coverage of all newsworthy
campus activities as well as interna
tional, national and state happenings.
A United Press teletype and radio
wire will supply such news. "L'il
Abner," the comic strip by Al Capp,
is promised to readers of the Daily
Tar Heel and there also will be fre
quent crossword puzzles.
Offices Expanded
The Tar Heel offices have been ex
panded into what was formerly Hor
ace Williams lounge of Graham Me
morial. Present plans call for the
editorial and sports departments to
be located in the reconverted lounge
while the news department will re
main in its present offices. A new
night office is being constructed in
the Orange Printshop where the Daily
Tar Heel will be printed. All persons
wishing to contact the newspaper
after 6 p. m. should call the night
office. The United Press teletype ma
chine will be located in the manag
ing editor's office in Graham Memorial.
Tuesday's paper will be the first
Daily Tar Heel since May, 1943, when
wartime conditions forced the paper
to become a weekly. In January, 1944,
under the editorship of Kat Hill, the
paper became a semi-weekly, which
it has remained until the, present
time.
The present Daily Tar Heel is
operating only on a trial basis, but the
editors are confident that the two
month test period will be successfully
completed and that the Daily Tar
Heel will again become a well ground
ed campus institution.
The main problem in reconverting
to a daily basis was the shortage of
labor in the Orange Printshop. How
ever, returning workers have solved
that and the trial contract has been
signed between the printshop and the
Publications Union Board.
