' ' REQUIRER3ENT
FOR AID IN FERA
.State FERA Authorities Instruct
.Benefitted Colleges to Re
quire Good Scholarship.
TTO SETTLE GRADE SOON
Edwin S. Lanier, Y. M. C. A.
self-help secretary and head of
the FERA student aid commit
tee at the University, announced
'yesterday that he considered a
iUC" average necessary for stu
dents receiving: federal aid in
the University. .;
The N. C. Federal Emergency
Relief Administration this week
instructed all presidents of col
leges and universities, in the
estate which, are receiving fed
eral aid, "that no FERA students
who fall, below ' good scholastic
attainment may be continued, as
a beneficiary of federal funds.
Many "C" Applicants
Xanier's statement followed:
"I feel that, in view of the large
number . of students now tie
and wanting to enter here after
Christmas who have academic
averages of "C" or better, all our
quota' of federal aid for students
should go to students who have
made at least a "C" average by
the end of the present quarter."
President Frank, Graham and
Dean R. B. House have intrusted
the University self-help commit
tee with the responsibility of ad
ministering the University's
quota of federal funds to aid
self-help students, amounting to
$4,335.
To Interpret Standing
This committee functions
through the self-help office.
Within the next few days, ac
cording to Lanier, the committee
will make a definite announce
ment concerning its interpreta
tion of what constitutes good
scholastic standing for FERA
students. ' ' : -
Lanier stated further, "It is
past time for the application of
the same rule by the self-hel)
committee in awarding all self
lielp jobs within the control of
the University. The University
scholarship committee is already
; observing this standard." '
Brilliant Steam
Fails When Tar Turns Tables
"Best Laid Plans of Mice and Men Oft Will Gang Awry";
This Case, Because a Good Rule Works Both Ways.
'-' o ' '
The boys in Swain hall work
ed under "forced draft" yester
day, and the boarders ate emerg
ency rations as a result of what
has been called "one of the most
brilliant experiments in con
temporary steam heating."
The unknown person, or per
sons, who instigated the experi
ment conceived the idea of run
ning an inch-and-a-half pipe
from Swain's heating and cook
ing steam line into the inky, oily
midst of the hundreds of gallons
of Tarvia road-surfacing fluid
stored in the old water tank
near the rear entrance to Swain.
Aim: To Un-goo Tar
The object was to force steam
through the Tarvia and thus re
duce it to a lower viscosity so
that it might be tapped and
used to surface the by-ways of
Chapel Hill. ,, , ,
All went well as long as the
steam pressure remained high.
The Tarvia became fluid, and a
quantity" was drawn Off. But
the pipe to the steam system re
mained connected.

P. U. BOARD
The Publications Union Board
will hold its last meeting of the
fall quarter this morning at 9
o'clock in "the seminar room in
Bingham hall.
Heating Plan
in
When the pressure of the Tar
via exceeded the falling steam
pressure, the Tarvia poured in
to the steam-piping system. It
coated the interior of all the
pipes, and, through the return
steam line, poured into the boil
ers at the Consolidated Service
Plant. .
"The whole piping system
here may. have to be replaced,"
T. S. Howard, assistant superin
tendent of Swain Hall, told a
Daily 'Tar Heel reporter yes
terday. .
Therefore the boys in Swam
hall were washing dishes by
hand last night, instead of by
the usual steam-cleaning pro
cess; were forced to use the
stoves for all cooking; and were
behind the eight-ball in the prep
aration of the 400 gallons of cof
fee consumed nightly by board
ers. " ' ' 1
And the instigator of the plan
for the heating of Tarvia by
- -' n il i i
steam has learned mat it is a
poor rule that doesn't work both
ways.
