CLEARING UP A
MATTER OF HONOR
In most of the discussion of the athletics situa
tion during the fall quarter there was a genuine
effort on the part of those participating to
remedy a situation which was encouraging stu
dents to lie and encouraging the campus to con
done that dishonor.
Many of the suggestions for relieving the situa
tion have ignored the possibilities of prosecuting
to the limit those who might have violated the
regulations as they stand now
To the supporters of the letter of the present
law this refusing to report to the campus au
thorities the flagrant violations, ever referred to
mysteriously, appeared immoral and weak. All of
the reference to athletes' Ivine ought to be "clear
ed up" presumably by investigation for the
sake of the boys being so blanketly accused, and
for the sake of the University.
It was the hope of the other side that, without
ruining the lives of the students, good men as well
as good athletes, who might have gotten involv
ed, the present arrangement itself might be re
vised. The fact that" the vast majority of the
campus felt that it would be unmerciful to "kick
out" those good men who, they could easily

The accusation, by the first group of "present
law7 supporters, that those who were trying to do
something about athletics were publicly praising
dishonor such an accusation is unfair.
Those who honestly thought that Repeal was
a good thing, that it would relieve many of the
evils of a hypocritical situation, were not advo
cates of general law-breaking and the opponents
of government.
CHAPEL HILL
"SHOWING OFF"
Although Bill Jordan's Beta chapter of Alpha
Epsilon Delta on the campus here is relatively an
infant (it was organized in 1936), it has proven
itself capable of attracting the national conven
tion of that order to the Hill on this coming
March 25 and 26. '
The recently published issue of "The Scalpel,"
official organ of Alpha Epsilon Delta, is chock
full of Old Welliania. Fully illustrated with
Madry-supplied photographs, "The Scalpel" con
tains articles by Bill Jordan and Ted Cochrane,
invitations by Governor Hoey, Dean MacNider,
Dean House, Bob Magill, Dr. Bost, and Dr. Hedge
peth.
Delegates from 16 chapters all over the coun
try will meet at the convention. They will inten
tionally have a good time, and unintentionally
they will absorb large quantities of Chapel Hill's
springtime atmosphere and hospitality. Like last
year's chemistry conventioneers, they will go away
with a priceless advertisement for the Univer
sity in their memories.
The prestige of the University in the eyes of
the nation rests upon its good name, and efforts
have made to spread this goodness should receive
such as A. E. D., the C. P. U., and the chemists
the appreciation they deserve. .

Copies of the letter to Dean
House were sent to President
Graham, C. T. Woollen, Con
troller of the Greater Univer
sity; L. B. Rogerson, assistant
controller; and Dean F. F. Brad

lows: "The Board of Directors of
Graham Memorial would like to
put the question directly to the
administration concerning the
possibility of having a student
operated motion picture theater
on the campus.
"We should like to know first,
if there is a building on the
campus in which it would be
practicable to show motion pic
tures at regular intervals. If
not, is it's structure such that
changes may be installed to
make possible the showing of
sound pictures?
"We should like to know if
the University would sanction
the operation of a motion pic
ture theater in this building by
any student group.
"We should like to know if the
University has any commit
ments to merchants' associa
tions, motion picture concerns
or any "understood agreements"
that fyould prohibit such a stu
dent enterprise.
"We should like to ask the
University if the Administration
would be willing to investigate
the- financial and engineering
practicability of such a venture."

One doctor says all college varsity basketball play

continues.
So if Ruth's and Mullis's and Dilworth's ton

My Day

Life On A Raft
3(C
By Charley Gilmore
Norman Thomas, like Bill Hendrix. has done a
lot of running in his time. The only difference is
that Hendrix usually has won.
The Socialist leader has tossed his hat into the
political ring so much that he's thinking of get-
ung a tin neimet to save wear and tear. He's the
only living man who has carried fewer states than
Alf Landon.
Talk A Walk
In 1936 half a million democrats voted the
socialist ticket. They got sick and tired of putting-
conege professors on the federal nav roll. Thomas
wants everybody to work for the government, but
ne aoesn t expect to pay them.
My friend down in the English department is
very liberal, and I don't think he'll object to hav
ing a reactionary like Thomas speak here. It's
good to know what some people will do to earn a
living.
Relief

In 1932 the New Deal swiped the Socialist Party
Platform. That left Mr. Thomas et al standing
on nothing. To my knowledge there has been no
change m the status quo.
The Socialist Party did scout around a little
looking for a platform to steal, out there was no
body left except the communists and the repub
licans. The communist platform wasn't worth
stealing, and the republican program was lost
somewhere along the rock-ribbed shores of
Maine.
