The department now runs like a well-ordered machine, and although" the artistic element is there, it is submerged in the frantic, and decidedly success ful program of creating organi zation and order out of the form er chaotic state of the music de partment." This statement was made by a music student who studied under "the Dyer regime and who could make an accurate comparison between it and the new departmental administra tion. Several other students added that in chorus work especially, the spirit and artistry that pre vailed under Dyer's direction were at present lacking, and had been replaced by cold technique. However the consensus of opinion is that as soon as the reorganization of the depart ment is accomplished, the ar tistic side will again come to tiie front. r . t' 1 Students Satisfied According to the music stu dents, the department has; through the sincere efforts and; enthusiasm of Professor Mc Corkle as head of the school, and the work of Messers Miller and Slocum, made great- prog ress in reestablishing the stand-1 ing of the department. Slocum has already shown his ENGINEERS MEET H. M. Doerschup of Baden Is Elected 1934 Chairman for State Section of AXE J!. The North Carolina chapter of the American Institute of Electrical Engineers held its fall business meeting yesterday afternoon in Phillips hall. About 250 engineers from all sections of the state attended. The meeting opened with an address of welcome by Presi dent Frank Graham. Other speakers were R. J. Marvin, student at the University, whose subject was "History of Com munication" and T. Johnson, Jr., General Electric company, Schenectady, N. Y., who spoke on "Carrier Current Communi cation." F. M. Craft, vice-presi- dent of the southern district A. I. E. E., was presented to the assembly. Officers Elected There was an election of offi cers to serve during 1934.

Artillery School Bleets The 316th Field Artillery troop school meets tonight at 7:30 in Davie hall. Lieutenant linker will : speak on 'Iiiitary Law and Court Marshall." " ability as a band leader, and has gained the hearty approval of the student body as well as the music majors. He has not yet had an opportunity to show his talent as conductor of the University symphony orchestra. New Glee Club System As glee club leader, Miller has inaugurated a competitive en trance system to replace the former ''. method of choosing members according to the likes and dislikes of the director. All the students are enthusi astic about the hew management of the department, and are co operating with the head and the professors in making the re vamped music school a success, and replacing it to its former position as one of the finest mu sic departments in the country. It is allying itself with other state musical organizations, and attempting to revive the inter est in the musical possibilities of North Carolina. Instead of the former ill-feeling that existed between the mu sic department and the Carolina state symphony, there is now a state of amicability that many believe will lead to a more fre quent appearance of the sym phony in Chapel Hill, and will also augment the out-of-state importance of these two organi- zations. SECOND-YEAR MEN HEAR MERSON Biographer Approves Honor System Principle; Suggests Full Power for Council. Dr. Archibald Henderson, head of the University mathematics department and eminent bio grapher of George Bernard Shaw, addressed the sophomore class yesterday at its regular assembly. Most of Dr. Henderson's talk centered around a line taken from one of the plays of Shaw, "Life is but a series of inspired follies." He cited the work of Albert Einstein, with whom he stated he had worked, as an "in spired folly," and put in this class, Wilson's formation of the League of Nations and Lind bergh's flight across the At lantic. Then the trend of the talk turned to the noble support of the team by the students last Saturday, and the remarkable reversal of form shown by the team itself. Dr. Henderson gave the second-year class a large portion of the credit for the spirit shown. Favors Jlonor System In closing, Dr. Henderson dwelt on the honor system as it is now and as it was when he attended the University. "I will most certainly vote 'aye' to any proposal brought up be fore the faculty which recom mends that the entire discipline concerning the honor system be turned over to the Student coun cilfor a year's experiment at least. "We must drop the idea of considering it imperative for the instructor to leave the class room," said Dr. H6nderson ?for that is merely asking for more opportunity to cheat with less opportunity for detection Student Directories Now Being Given Out Harry F.
