Yet, here exists a majority of votes in the hands of the student rep resentatives. Therefore, in the case of a student member being influenced by the decision of fac ulty member, the trouble lies in he weakness on the part of the student's depending on others to help him form his opinion, rather than in the domination of the faculty member. Naturally, there are occasions when the settling of matters have to be eft up to the wiser opinion of the older members. At times like these, isn't it appar ent that the decision should be made by one of long experience, rather (han by a "two-year" fac ulty representative, as suggest ed in the Sunday proposal? Since the present system has worked very effectively, there seems to be no need for the risk of leaving such important mat ers to the discretion of five in experienced men, which would undoubtedly be borne, were the recent proposal adopted. BOB DRANE, Jr. Rep. P. U. B. Editor, the Daily Tar Heel: P. U. Change The publications are alive m - - m again n; very time sometnmg unique in purpose and substance comes up, the dreary news hounds, comic writers, and al bum compilers stir themselves up and let fly their opinions on the question at hand. The in terest itirred up by the pro posal of President William Ed dleman, of the Publication Union Board,, is amazing. The only trouble is that everyone agrees that a change such as he advo cates is needed but no one will - it.. ' . . agree with anyone else ' about what should be done. After arguing, cajoling;and going into hysterics with every editor, managing editor, and power behind the throne of each publication, I, as a member of that hackled P. U. board, make the following proposal which should silence the objectors to President Eddleman's plan, find the backing of Eddleman him self, and convince ; everybody that it is the only way to make the board the democratic stu dent organization it should be. I suggest the immediate ap pointment to the board of two new faculty members, with the two-year terms and alternation plan as Eddleman suggested. I propose that J. M. Lear, treas urer, be retained by the board in the advisory capacity with no power of vote, in view of his tremendous experience and abili ty in board matters. I favor the board's entrance fully under the Student Audit system and the election of the board of a student treasurer from its mem bership with the power of sign ing checks and approving pur chase orders only with the vote of the boaid. This should satisfy those who appreciate Lear's ability ; should appease those who wish greater student control of the business of the publications; and should fill the qualifications of any stu dent of what a good, representa tive and democratic P. U. board should be. The board under . the plan would hold weekly meetings at which time it would, AS A WHOLE, accept or reject the purchase orders or checks. The treasurer is empowered to sign these only upon the acceptance MAN BITES DOG By Lonnie Dill Propaganda Dep't Now, says "Variety," San Jose business men can hang out the mid-day sign: "Out to lynch back at two.

When questioned, said proprietor obligingly explains that, ho. there aren't any invisible fish in the tank.

THOUSANDS of men are still trying to borrow a copy of the last issue of Esquire the magazine for men only. Those who were fortunate enough to buy one, did so the morning it came out. By noon most of the men's stores and newsstands were frantically re ordering and, though we printed over forty thousand additional copies, that wasn't enough. Anyway, the second issue of the first and only general magazine for men is out today. And if you were one of those who got left at the post in the scramble for copies of the first issue (or even if you weren't) this is to offer fair warning that the first issue of Esquire gave only a sort of budding notion of what this second issue is like.
