Marcus Feinstein, business manager of the Daily Tar Heel, announced yesterday that plans for the Daily Tar Heel adver tising agency have been com pleted and are at present being placed in motion. The service is extended to local merchants and is managed by the business department of this publication. Conceived last spring as a means of providing suitable ad vertising service for Chapel Hill and surrounding business hous es, the agency has been hailed as a distinct innovation in the field of college publications. "The success of the project," said Feinstein in explaining his Plan, "depends largely on the student body's supporting firms which advertise in the paper. Without such co-operation elab orate measures for the improve ment of the paper are incapable of realization. "It is to the advantage of ev ery student who is interested in Chapel Hill, the University, and the Daily Tar Heel to grant Patronage to business establish ments which have shown inter est in the welfare of a major University activity. 'Stimulated interest in adver ting will lead to a better pa per containing many photo graphs, utilizing a press wire, an Saining swifter coverage of porting events," believes Fein stein.

T J to. a- v into Medium of University Activity and Campus Thought; Many Changes Have Taken Place During Publication. Although the Daily Tar Heel consumed its fortieth birthday cake last February, this first fall issue is considered the of ficial opening of the publication's forty-first year. Through four decades the paper has passed through every journalistic form, ranging from a single sheet pub lished weekly to the present for mat. Founded in 1892 as the official organ of the Athletic Associa tion,, the paper weathered com petition from a rival publication and carried on to a position of stability and influence on the campus. Despite the fact that a group interested primarily in sports had inaugurated the pa per, the ever-expanding inter ests of the student body soon re duced athletics to a less prom inent place in the Daily Tar Heel.

Dr. .W. R. Berryhill, the Uni versity physician, has an nounced that 'upefclassmelCwIio so desire may take the tubercu lin test which was made part of the freshman physical examina tion this year, in the infirmary up until tomorrow noon. These tuberculin tests are part of the work of the North Caro lina Sanatorium, and the work here is being supervised by Dr. P. P. McCain. The tests have been taken by most of the stu dents at the Women's College of the University and by over 200,000 high school students in North Carolina. Most northern universities are now giving these tests to students who de sire them. Yale and Harvard Universities have a high per centage of students who have had the test. The tuberculin test is on prac tically the same principle as the Shick test for diphtheria. Less than 1-lOcc. of the extract of dead tubercular germs are in jected into the skin. At the end of 48 hours the examiner can de termine by the appearance of the skin, whether the patient is im mune from tuberculosis. If there is the least suspicion that one is not immune from the disease, X-rays of the lungs will be tak en to determine the exact condi tion of, the patient. Besides students, the faculty and members of their families, and all University employees are invited to be tested. Women students will be tested tonight in Spencer Hall from 6 :45 to 7:30 o'clock. "Y" Cabinet Meetings The sophomore, junior, and senior "Y" cabinets will convene Monday night at 7:30 o'clock at their regular places in the "Y" building.

The Publications Union Board was devised to supervise the financial affairs of the Caro lina publications, "and direct choice of editors was granted the student when a compulsory fee was approved. The Daily Tar. Heel achieved national recognition under the regime of Jack Dungan, editor 1931-32. During his editorship the paper conducted symposiums on disarmament, prohibition, presidential campaigns, and uni versity problems. He also intro duced special features by Sena tor Royal S. Copeland, Kathar ine Cornell, Will Cuppy, Steph en Leacock, Ella Boole, and ex Senator James Wadsworth. The 1932 Tar Heel The year in which Charles G.

The high schools of the nation opened their ...capacious pouch last week-end and for better pr worse deposited some six hun dred freshmen on the Carolina campus. Feeling not in the least infer ior because they numbered a re markably small group for this University, the yearlings - took root with amazing rapidity. Twenty minutes after one gen tleman had arrived from Con necticut he was confidentially; ad vising a senior "to lay off Archi bald Henderson's relativity course," because that's tough stuff. A Room, A Bench, A Bed Those from the north were a little surprised when they found only Aycock dorm open in the new quadrangle. Well-circulated tales of the exploits of the in mates of Lewis and Everett had Whetted their appetites. Twen ty sons or grandsons reveled in occupying their sires rooms in Old East and Old West.

Lee Greer, John O'Neil and. those merry men known as the Freshman Week Council scattered themselves over the campus to- listen to scores of queries, concerning rooms, board, fraternities, graft, rackets, dates, and the easiest way to pass a course. Emily Post Disciple Groups of eighteen tramped faithfully over the campus to learn-the intricate workings of the library card catalogue, the power plant, the route to Kenan stadium, the co-ed shack, and the special pleasures of Graham Memorial. Harold Bennett re ports three respectful freshmen who refused to address him as anything but "Mr. Bennett" By and large, the upperclass men, who arrived soonafter the younger men, commented on the alertness and spruceness of the class. The general opinion seemed to be that although small, the class of '37 already had the advantage of brightness, vigor, and the ability to look like a group from which something might be expected.
