The members of the Y.M.C.A. held a short call 'meeting ' Tues day night' at 7 J15 in th Y build ing. ! The hillside J meeting was the last rear nieeting but a special meeting was called for the purpose A of discussing plans for Blue-Ridge and for building repairs. s K ''K; 1 L k- 'The president called to the at- leniion oi tne x memoers again the ' importance Tbf ; ' the " Blue Ridge "training in next year's work. ' The leadership training that the members get there will be very valuable to them when they' return next year. During the ' last'" few years this organi zation has had a very good rep resentation at the ; Blue Ridge meetings .and have served as leaders at these meetings. This year it seems that they will not have as large a delegation. Twenty men have- made definite plants for the meeting and sev eral more are undecided. All men who are interested are re quested to call by the Y office and get information. The second part of the meet ing was devited to the discussion of plans for making the Y build ing more attractive for next year. Because of the dangerous condition oi tne plastering on the ceilings the University re pair department has thought it necessary to cover the ceilings with heavy board. They have also agreed to tint the walls with a prettier color. The next thing necessary is some rugs for the floors. Mr. Comer has agreed to held m this problem. A canvas of the dormitories, fra ternities, and private homes is going' to be made, in which old winter clothes that are useless will be taken up. These will be sent to the Olson Rug Company where they will be r made into rugs. Rugs made from old wool en materials are very good and will last a long time. A few years i ago the seniors at V. P. I. gave their uniforms for this purpose j and secured very fine rugs. No matter what , condition the ma terial is in it is useful, since it is washed and the . dye is re moved before it is made into rugs. The members are calling on all the , students to - give as much as possible. When you go to pack- your trunks for home, just throw ouf all thsOld,'''worn, and soiled winter clothes or clothes'' thatr are "mostly woollen andi;he will be glad to send a student around to collect'- them. If you have ay call the Y office, 5011, and give " your address. This should not seem such a big request. You must surely have a. few, things which you will not have any-use for this summer and which will ; only be a bother to you . It will not be so very ( Continued on page three) i STUDENT COUNCIL PRflPOTON ALSO i COFiIES THROUGH Carries By Large Vote; EIean3 Nine Members of - Council. The Carolina student body, yesterday, by means of the bal lot box expressed itself as com pletely; in favor of the contin uance : of the Daily " Tar Heel. By an overwhelming vote of 438 to 13 the increase in the publication-fee of 33 1-3; cents per quarter was passed. - This is the most overwhelming triumph of any measure brought before the student -body in - the past decade and' possibly the history-of the University. "'" r. ' The second proposition voted upon, that of adding :an addi tional member of the student council, was "passed by a vote of 330 to 82. This, too, was carried by a decisive though hot so over whelming majority. In accord ance with the plan, t the ninth student councilman will be elect ed from their number by the re tiring council. ' The vote on the two questions was light, only about one-third of : the; students casting ; ballots. This was due .probably to the fact that the students saw 'no clearly; defined issue. Only one Out of every j thirty-three who cast ballots were opposed to the. Daily Tar Heel. This showed a decided trend; in the minds of students, r in favor of the daily, for last year,- when no increase' in fees was asked, more than 200 voted to retain, the tri-Weekly in place , of having j the proposed daily. ,', ' ' . A week ago yesterday the stu activities committee represent ing all the activities oh the cam pus, met at a banquet'' and de cided to submit the' Daily "Tar Heel question to the vote of the students. -' Since then no cam paigning has been done by any body either for or against" 'the continuance of the 'daily paper. The Daily Tar Heel itself con-ducted- a campaign through its columns for its continuance and attempted to show "the "public that its value to it required that the increase in fees be passed. The -student council, which" sub mitted - the question of its1' in creased membership to the Stu dents also t eceived hearty sup port in attempting to serve Caro lina students better.
