S. S. C.G.T. NRA - Thursday Nights A series of very interesting and informing lec tures is being sponsored by the University school of commerce, together with the law school and the social science department, which offers excellent opportunity for the student whose campus schedule is too full to investigate for himself and parallel his life with the study of this important national program. Topics chosen for lecture cover the subject thoroughly. Different phases are taken up by faculty members who have studied the program onI nnifo nriorof QTirl i-fa oima arJ qtyitiIoVi ments. The ordinary individual has only the mystenous symbols, niastaig be- vaguest notion as to what the National Recov ery is all about. Since new phases are contin ually being introduced by chief administrator, Hugh S. Johnson, it is, of course, difficult to keep up with recovery activity without- intensive study of its background and chronology, That is why these lectures are important. The lecturers, all from the University except G. W. practice of putting little Greek symbols beneath some of the students pictures. Curiously enough, these symbols, set di rectly beneath the faces, seem to divide the students into two distinct divisions. The students with a blank space directly be neath their names are nothing, no maner now many are me achievements recorded in the paragraph beneath; while those with the little symbols, no mat ter how blank the rest of the space, appear as demi-gods. The neath their outer suriace a whole world of mystery and awe, impart to their owners an aura of sanctity and exclusiveness that sets them high above the others.

The result is undue strain both on professor and on student. The former must scramble around in a desperate effort to make out quizzes and be prepared to grade fthem, and the latter must drop all else to get in a few hours of last-minute cramming all because of what .seems to us, frankly, an arbitrary and con fusing method of deciding suddenly on the ap pointed time of mid-terms. In the first place, if mid-terms were mid-terms in fact as well as in name, we should be led to - expect that they would ' come at least approxi mately in the middle of the 'quarter. However, one-third of the quarter is not yet up ; we have been in school nbt quite q. month. In the second place, if we are to have mid-terms so early in the quarter, why is a; specified date for them not appointed and made public a reasonable time in advance? Instead, the registrar's office an nounces the date literally just before we go on class to take quizzes that mean passing or ' fail ure for the amount of work covered. And lastly, if members of the faculty are caught off balance by the "caprice," shall we call it? of the regis . trar's office, what shall we expect the reaction of the student to be? Dean Bradshaw stated Wednesday that al : though it was "too late to take any action, this .; quarter," the Daily TaR Heel's suggestion con .. cerning changes in the present method of giv : ing mid-terms was now under consideration. We . reaffirm with Dean Bradshaw that it most cer tainly is too late this quarter. But we look forward to next quarter with the hope that the administration will realize what a sorry device the mid-term quiz is as now employed. A.T.D. Political Pirouettes It seems only too evident that the freshmen of last year were eager, willing, and quick "to learn. Last fall they were initiated into the machinations of politics on this campus; last spring they became further and more thorough ly acquainted with the complications ' of cam pus politics; and this fall as sophomores; they turned their two brief lessons into practice and how they succeeded! ' In yesterday morning's Daily Tar Heel the sophomores were informed the first time they'd heard of it that dance leaders for the sophomore hop were to be elected that morning during their assembly period. Wholly unpre pared as the class was for these elections, with out . having any .time for thought as to who would be qualified leaders, they went to the as sembly to be informed that the date of the dance had been set for the Friday before the Carolina- Georgia Tech game. This announcement came as a great surprise . to all, for the class members had in no way been consulted as to the time which would suit them 4 best. Immediately, after this announcement, the floor. was thrown open to. nominations and be fore the sophomores (who were not "in the know") could catch their breath, nominations definition of "recovery" clarified; it is a chance to hear very good ideas on a very important sub ject. J.S.C. Fraternities are all right, in their place ; they are social or ganizations which have a defi nite place in collegiate life.

It is up to you, as the student, to when he shows his friends and take advantage of that opportunity. W.H.W. posterity his book' the! book Old Man Happy" Again Editor, the Daily Tar Heel: A few weeks ago we took the iberty of pointing out in these columns that the repeated re quests that spectators will please not walk across the grass, as broadcast from the football field, were very tiresome, inasmuch as the intelligent percentage of the student body and other specta tors were reminded from last year, or amply warned with a single comment. At last Saturday's game there was no tiresome repetition of re quests, and we enjoyed the an nouncing much more. Wisely enough, all requests of this sort were defrayed until the last quarter, and our thanks as well as our apologies are due to "Old Man Happy" of Kenan stadium, who, it seems, was never to blame for the reiteration any way. The amplifiers are still in escapable, but as long as the an nouncing remains intelligent and continues to be made by a for mer Carolina star, who knows football from top to bottom, there is no particular reason why anybody should need to escape them. It appears, however, that at every football game there is an element which could only be taught with a cudgel, such as po licemen wield in times of stress. If the management of the field could obtain the services of sev eral state troopers for a few minutes around the closing of every game, and put them at the first few gates at the extreme left on the south side, perhaps a good many spectators would be less inclined to cross the field at that end.
