Before he left Chapel Hill yes
terday, Dr. Charles A. Beard,
who delivered the Weil lectures
here last February, discussed
tiic wiitue universe wun a
member of the feature board in
his suite in the Carolina Inn.
Touching on the possibility of
another general war, Dr. Beard
declared that "we should be fools
if we went in another." He be
lieves no nation really wants
war at this time, but he" pointed
out that no nation wanted war
in 1914 (with the possible excep
tion of Russia), although it
came. He sees possible, danger
in another "incident."
Beard believes that America's
entry into the European melee
in 1917 was for the best, be
cause, had Germany won the
war, he believes it would have
been impossible to get along
"with that Potsdam gang." If
Germany had won the war, Dr.
Beard believes they would have
challenged the Monroe Doctrine.
While "you can negotiate with
England and France," Beard
seems to think that the old Ger
man regime was particularly
hard to get along with.
Wilson and Versailles
President Wilson, said Dr.
Beard, saw the grave failings
in the Treaty of Versailles, but
hoped that the League of Na
tions would liquidate them. The
great mistake on the part of the
Allies was the fact that they
made no concessions to the ear-
y and peaceful post-war Ger
man governments, ana it was
not until "Von Papen shook his

that Germany gained any relief.
Germany, Dr. Beard thought,
would be unlikely to get her old
colonies back, as neither France
nor England would be willing to
relinquish them.
Hitler and Ku Klux Klan
Comparing Hitlerism in Ger
many with the wave of Ku Klux
Klan popularity that spread over
parts of the United States after
the War, Beard declared that it
would be hard to tell where the
United States would be if this
country had been under the
strain Germany has been under
since the World War.
Dr. Beard agreed with Dr. Al
ley, who spoke recently in Ger
rard hall, in that Hitler is being
supported in Germany by reac
tionary forces opposed to gen
uine socialism.
The "Next War"
Speculating on the possible
course of events if another war
should be precipitated, Dr. Beard
guessed that . Germany would
have to rely on Italy to hold the
fort until Germany could organ
ize her civilian air forces for gas
warfare. It is obvious to any
one with any imagination at all
;hat the horrors of another great
war would be infinitely greater
than the last. Perhaps, Beard
thought, Communism would
have to come along after it "to
liquidate the junk." He believes
Russia's "tending to her own
garden" is an admirable exam
ple for other nations to follow.
He is of the opinion that the

"Hell Week" is here again.
With all its battered anatom
ies, befuddled brains, and bruis
ed reputations, the long-stand
ing period of jollification for
the initiated members of fra
ternities and torture for their
yearlings is now giving the cam
pus one of the best shows of the
season.
Although it scarcely compares
to the rip-roaring "Hell Weeks"
of our forebears, the present
product nevertheless has pro
vided its share of quaking
hearts, inextricable situations,
and hopeless mix-ups.
Tabulation is apparently one
of the favorite methods of oc
cupying the initiate. One was
required to count all the ties in
the railroad from Carrboro to
Durham: another had the
doubtfully entertaining noc
tiirnal experience of reckoning
the number of tombstones in the
local cemetery, aided only by a
flashlight; counting the number
of "dopes sold in Pritchard
Lloyd's for two hours and keep
ing track of the number of times
the local traffic light changed
were other variations of this
entertainment.
Lest the feminine interest be
neglected, one lodge arranged
to have a pledge garbed in In
dian brave costume build
n 1 1
nre, ana cook nam and eggs
over it. He was joined by a
fellow sufferer who then per
formed a violent war dance
all before the portals of Spen
cer hall. His limbs were not
nimble, his voice was not cult
ured, and his mortification was
tremendous. A kindred spirit
found himself being wheeled
past the same place attired in
baby clothes, sucking a bottle
containing milk.
These were, however, minor
attempts to permit the co-eds to
share in the benefits of "Hell
Week." The major event oc
curred last week when Mrs.
Lee, guardian of Spencer, be
came alarmed at 2 :00 o'clock in
the morning at the spectacle of
two girls leaning out of the win
dows and talking in excited
tones. Two men were outside,
loudly inviting the inmates to
come down and join them.
Mrs. Lee turned on the pow
erful spot-lights that are at
tached to the building and the
cause of the excitement beat a
hasty retreat into the surround
ing darkness. To her amuse
ment, Mrs. Lee later discovered
that the disturbers were merely
filling the orders of their fra
ternity in order to become for
mal members of the lodge. Per
haps she guessed it on the spot.
Treasure hunting is a popular
form of furnishing the greatest
amount of discomfort possible
to future Greek letter men. The
neophytes are given notes that
have to be deciphered in order to
learn the location of some parti
cular spot, usually in the woods
around ChaDel Hill. Another

OVER 900 LOANS
MADE THIS YEAR
Students Have Received $59,-
878.28 in Loans Since Begin
ning of Scholastic Year.
Nine hundred and ninety
loans amounting to $59,878.28
have been received by Univer
sity students so far this schol
astic year, it was announced
yesterday by J. A. Williams, as
sistant dean of students. It is
estimated that a large number
of loans will be granted during
the remainder of the term. This
report included both long-term
and short-term loans.
In arranging the satistics by
quarters, 430 loans were made
during the fall quarter, total
ing $25,389.28. The loans av
eraged $59.04 apiece. Three
hundred and ' sixty-five were
granted during the winter quar
ter, and totalled $22,198, an
average of $60.82 each. Thus
ar in the spring quarter, 195
oans have been made for $12,-
291, an average of $63.82.
It was estimated that five
nunarea ainerent students re
ceived the pecuniary aid
hrough the Student Loan Fund,
which is slightly more than
nineteen per cent of the entire
student body. Williams express
ed, the probability tnat over
twenty per cent will avail itself
of the fund before the termina
tion of the year.
A report issued yesterday on
the Masonic Loan Fund showed
that the original grant of $4,-
000 made in 1922 has increased
to $4,855.29. The latter amount
is represented by notes held by
fifty-six students in the Uni
versity.
