University Planning 800-Acre
Arboretum Within Five Years
Project Will Be On
University Land In
South Chapel Hill
By SANFORD STEIN "
An arboretum of 800 acres or more,
to be open to the public within the next
five years, is one of the University's
leading plans for the future. Purpose
of the project is to study the character
istics and usefulness of the trees m this
climate, to gather together Southern
plants of every variety and species,
and to give the students more contact
with nature than is possible in Dr.
Coker's minature woods behind the
Shack.
The University, however, is not the
only organization concerned with the
development of the arboretum, which
will occupy most of the school's unus
ed land in south Chapel Hill about
four miles outside the main town. It
is a cooperative enterprise with the
Soil Conservation Project, of the
United States Department of Agricul
ture which is primarily interested in
controlling soil erosion by experiments
in proper farm practices, use of me

ATTEMPT MADE
TO ROB YMCA
MCKLE0DE0N
Officer Sees No
Connection With
Everett Theft
An unsuccessful attempt to rifle the
electric victrola in the lobby of the
YMCA sometime Saturday night was
being investigated yesterday by Of
ficer J. D. Blake, campus policeman,
and by University authorities.
A metal , plate around the deposit
slots on the front of the nickelodeon
was removed, but the box containing
the coins was unreached. A putty
knife, used in removing the plate, was
found, broken, on top of the victrola.
The attempted robbery occurred be
fore midnight Saturday, H. F. Comer,
secretary of the YMCA, declared. A
couple who came in to play the ma
chine made the discovery and notified
Officer Blake.
Amateur burglars looted the Ev
erett dormitory store cash box of ?65
in money and checks early Friday
morning. Blake doubted that both at
temps were by the same person. The
Everett dormitory marauder removed'
putty from a window in effecting his
entrance, but he apparently used razor
blades, rather than a putty knife.
Blake advanced the theory that the
nickelodeon might have been opened
by-swneone' innocently "attempting to"
extract a jammed coin," since- the
money box could not be reached ex
cept from1 the rear of the machine.
Group Meets On
Refugee Problem
A group of friends and interested
faculty members held a meeting
Sunday night in which methods of
aiding German refugees in the Unit
ed States, getting those out of Ger
many who can leave, and helping
those who must remain, were dis
cussed. Besides the exodus of the Jews
many a non-Jewish professor in a
German college has felt it necessary
to resign when he has been asked to
discharge his Jewish assistants, and
the Quaker-headed group discussed
possibilities of obtaining positions for
such men in America.
A committee composed of -Prof. R.
J. M. Hobbs, Dr. F. H. Edmister,
Miss Mary Henderson, Mrs. . Allen
Bonnell, Dr. E. M. Bernstein, and Dr.
D. D. Carroll was selected to consider
the various proposals.

GRAHAM SC0R
DICTATORSHIPS
BEFORE CLUBS
Americanism Is
Subject Of Talk
To Civic Groups
Denouncing Fascist and Communist
dictatorships,' President Frank P. Gra
ham in a Washington birthday address
in Winston-Salem yesterday declar
ed that freedom and democracy must
not revert to"xeaction and. the,.auto-
cratic power of a darker age."
Asserting that the roots of Ameri
canism are "deep in the teachings of
our religion, traditions of the race,
and the ideals of our country," he said
"Americanism grown on this soil is not
a frail plant that must be falsely pro
tected with terrorism by those with
out faith in the depth of its rootage or
theTobustness of its timber."
AMERICANISM
Dr. Graham addressed a meeting of
the Winston-Salem civic clubs spon
sored by the Junior Chamber of Com
merce at the Robert E. Lee hotel. The
theme of the session was Americanism
in commemoration of Washington's
birthday.
"In this day when human liberty is
being shackled by both Fascist and
Communist dictatorships and demo
cracy is in retreat on many Eastern
and Western fronts," Dr. Graham said
"it is needful for us at his memorable
time in February not only to celebrate
the birthday of George Washington
but also to commemorate the birth
principles of our Republic and to re
fresh our ideals in the historic streams
of our first Americanism.
"With filial faith we saiute the
memory of the Father of our country,
the rock of the Revolution, upon whom
broke defeat, intrigue and despair. In
winter's gaunt retreat his dauntUess
faith held on and feathered the birth
of a nation and an idea, a venturing
hope for freeing the earth in time."
Asserting that a free people have no
cause to fear the dictatorship of any
class, President Graham said "the fear
of no economic theory, however fall
acious, and of no social philosophy,
however hateful, can, I believe, ter
rorize us into the overthrow of the
Anglo-Saxon tradition and the Ameri
can principle of lawful freedom of
speech and essembly ..."

Woodhouse To Lead
Campus Performers
In Hour Program
For the first time in several weeks
there will be a Graham Memorial
Amateur program tonight, which
promises to be one of the best this
year. Several amateur musicians have
agreed to appear on the program, and
there will be a community sing con
ducted by Bob McManus.
"King" E. J. Woodhouse will be
master of ceremonies and will preside
over the entire program. Among those
who will appear on the program are
Boston Lackey, an expert flute player
from Lenoir; Paul Griffith, a drum
mer in Jeep Bennett's orchestra who
has been acclaimed over the state
for his unusual interpretations; and a
trumpet trio from Charlie Wood's or
chestra. Late last night Bob Magill, director
of the union, announced that Ray
Martin, accordion player, will also
perform on the program. Martin has
just returned from a YMCA deputa
tion trip to Fayetteville.
Interest should be added to the pro
gram by the appearance of Wood-
house, as he has recently been active
in presiding over such meetings.
The program will be timed to last
exactly: one -hour and will-begin at
exactly 8:45 in the main lounge of
Graham memorial.
The usual. prizes of three dollars
first prize and two dollars second
prize will be awarded. The public is
cordially invited to attend.
Faculty Club
Idea Will Be
Investigated
After a two hours discussion Satur
day night at the smoker at Carolina
inn, the faculty empowered a commit
tee to investigate further the possi
bilities of using Archer house as a
faculty club.
Dr. W. A. Olsen, chairman of the
meeting Saturday evening, said that
the committee will call another meet
ing in two weeks at which it will pre
sent the information and facts now
needed before a decision can be made
as to the advisibility of the plan. He
said that the faculty would probably
be able to decide at this meeting.
In regards to the plan Dean R. B.
House said that the whole idea is at
this stage only a speculation. The
Carolina inn, Graham memorial and
other places are available for faculty
use at any time, but as Archer house
will be vacant next year the faculty
is now simply considering its worth as
a club for the faculty, the townspeople
and for possible use for roming pur
poses. As to how the idea originated Dean
House said that "since Davie poplar
first sprouted somebody has been
planning a faculty club" but the plan
has never materialized.
The smoker Saturday night was a
preliminary meeting. About 50 faculty
members s attended.
Coast Guard Officer
To Present Movie
Lieutenant Richard F. Rea of the
United States Coast guard will offer
a talk supplemented by a moving pic
ture on the activities and functions of
that division of the United States mili
tary units Wednesday night in the
main lounge of Graham memorial at

Lieutenant Rea will show a picture
depicting . the life of the men in the
Coast Guard and illustrating the work
done daily by this unit, offering com
ments on the picture. Afterwards he
will deliver a short lecture on the func
tions of the department.

NEW CANDIDATE
IS NOW JUNIOR
COUNCIL MEMBER
Nominee Is Third
To Enter Current
Political Struggle
By DONALD BISHOP
The University party last night
made its second announcement of the
current political season by placing the
name of Jack Fairley on the ticket for
vice-presidency of the student body.
The junior class student council rep
resentative immediately accepted.
Fairley's running mate will be
Jim Davis, junior class vice-president
and track star, who was announced
for the presidency by both the Uni
versity and Student parties several
weeks ago. Bill Pearson, Everett dor
mitory president, is in the field as
an independent against Davis.
"As a candidate for the student
body vice-presidency, I favor a more
complete orientation of freshmen as
regards the honor system and the
campus code," the candidate asserted.
He did not enter this as the substance
of a platform, but advanced it as one
of his general objectives in student
government.
REFORMS
Concerning the student legislature,
over which the vice-president of the
student body presides, he stated: "I
realize there are several possible re
forms which might be made to in

of making the nomination of campus
officials more democratic. I hope to
see all of our delegates present on
time so that we can transact our busi

At its previous meeting, the party
nominated Jimmy Davis, University
junior and track star, for student body
