CITY EDITOR FOR THIS ISSUE: DON McKEE Thursday, December 13, 1934 PARAGRAPHICS . , There weren't even enough spectators at the Wright debate to organize a posse to look for the medal. Mr. Crittenden seemed to have a lot to say about "Bunk in North Carolina." Not bed. We would say the Cardinal rule of football is blocking or beating Alabama. Give to a Worthy Cause ' That Phillips Russell, anti-war delegate fto Geneva, needs only 50 to complete his expense fund is both good news and bad news. It is gratifying to learn that through the generosity of those who have contributed Russell needs only this small amount. At the same time, however, it would be too bad if donations ceased coming in when the goal is so near and when contribu tions from sources other than this campus have been given so freely. The anti-war delegate is to represent the Uni versity in a worth-while project. It is the Uni versity's responsibility to see that he is given a chance to accomplish his purpose. Make your contributions- now ! It's a "Crip With the beginning of registration today, jun iors and seniors will start rustling through cata logues and class schedules in a last-minute effort to map out their courses for the winter quar ter Although thought should have been given to this subject before now, it is not too late to make some valuable decisions in choosing courses to be taken after the Christmas holidays. Our point at this particular time concerns what are known in campus parlance as "crip" courses. This term, while perfectly good in itself, is too inclusive to be fair to a large number of courses that the University offers. Some courses are definitely crips, meaning in this case that there is nothing particularly valuable to be got ten out of them. Others are called crips be cause they are easy to pass! The funny thing about most of these courses is that the average undergraduate thinks he is putting something over on the professor who teaches the easy-to pass course by taking it. rip courses can be good courses. We have in mind one course in particular, "Rural-Social Economics," which for a North Carolinian (since the course is concerned with social and economic conditions in the state) is extremely 'advisable Yet it is regarded unfairly as a crip, in spite of the fact that students who take it find it very worthwhile. This, in turn, brings up an important question m the choice of courses. Our idea'on the subject is that more attention should be given by stu dents who are North Carolinians to taking courses which are directly concerned with the study of this state. This does not by "any means preclude the taking of other courses on subjects other than North Carolina; if it did, such a plan of study would perhaps be too narrow. But for the student who has a choice of electives, the wise thing for him to do would be to learn some thing about the state he is to live in. Crip or no crip, it's valuable. Buy Seals! " : ' The local administrative committee in charge of -the sale of Christmas seals and the dis'pensa tion of local funds for tubercular cases is insti tuting one of the most sympathetic and bene- ficial-to-the-campus innovations in the field of local public health. , This year the money received from the sale of the seals, on this campus will be placed in a local fund for use in University tubercular cases or symptomatic emergencies. Students whose tests at the infirmary show a need for an X-ray to detect the presence of the serious tubercular germs and who are unable to pay for the X-ray can make appeals to the committee and the X-ray will be provided. from the fund. There were fifteen -cases this year where stu dents, needed X-ray treatments and could not afford the dollar charge. Of course, this dollar charge is. not the only cost to those who have been found tubercular and for those so afflicted and unable to pay for sanitorium cure, the fund offers aid. , Not all of the money collected from the. local seal sale will go to the local fund. Seventy-five per cent will be thus directed, the remainder going to the state' sanitorium and to defray ex penses of the national tubercular campaign. The whole, system is one of America's greatest char itable institutions. Students must co-operate in every manner pos sible with fraternity and dormitory representa tives by purchasing Christmas seals with the spare nickels and dimes. Now that, the recip iency of their donation is so close and vitally connected with their welfare, it should make their obligations to co-operate all the more powerful. Efficiency and Satisfaction The report of L. B. Rogerson, University as sistant controller, reveals a new business admin istration set-up that to the lay student repre sents the last word in efficient and democratic organization. The students naturally demand that the busi ness administration guard their interests as af fected by the work of the business departments. Thus, the business office must hear the- student side of the questions of mutual interest. The Student Advisory . Committee was created for this purpose. The students also demand that they get their money's worth. The whole system embracing the centralized control and decentralized detail idea embodies efficiency in business administra tion, assuring satisfactory procedures. We welcome Mr. Rogerson's publicity because it marks the first time the business office has ever seen its way clear to let the campus know what goes on behind the Barred windows. This secrecy had aroused a latent antagonism on the students' part which used to flare forth every once in so often. Now that the whole system as so efficiently organized by Mr. Rogersorr-has been explained, our only kick to business office policies can be that there's nothing wrong to kick about. Perpetual Unemployment Dr. H. D. Wolf of the University's school of commerce believes that there will always be mil lions of unemployed in this country even when the depression is over, and that the government cannot keep on indefinitely paying people for re fraining from producing things we need because it is impossible to pay them for producing them. He offers as his remedy for the situation a strong permanent unemployment insurance. It is not. a pleasant prospect to look forward to, but it is imperative that we face the facts as they stand. The United States is far behind other countries in sponsoring unemployment in surance countries' which have recognized its in evitability and accepted the plan as the best pos sible solution. With millions of unemployed in this country the situation is an acute one. That Congress will enact some such legislation seems fairly evi dent at the present; the trouble appears to be in deciding upon a suitable plan. The! sooner red tape is done away .with, the quicker relief comes. Pass the Oakum. Bovs We see where the boys up in Washington are up to their old tricks. It seems that somebody in the Aircraft factory in Philadelphia needed a new mechanic. But according to the official rules and regulations, the Civil Service Commission had to inform every' mechanic in the United States of the vacancy. So, in all,, 49,200 docu ments were sent out, before the boss in Phila delphia got his mechanic. The worst of it is that this is onlv one foihlp nf one department of an nrlministratinTi rmr nf which misspent money flows like water leaving a colander. How can erovernmental eponnmv Vp m . anything but a farce when laws remain on flip statute-books providing for such pork-barrel pol icies ? We need caulking in some of these cracks. i HIGH SCHOOLERS PRESENTDRM1AS TOMORROW NIGHT 'Louis" Hudson, Rachel Howard, Mary A. Steen, and Max Boone To Direct One-Act Plays.
