YEARBOOK MAKES
FIRST APPEARANCE
iTHIS AFTERNOON
900 Copies Ready
For Distribution
In Small Lounge
In its earliest appearance in four
yearsthe 1939 edition of the Yack-
ety-Yack will be distributed today
from 4 to 7 o'clock in the small lounge
of Graham Memorial. Only 900 copies
will be on hand this afternoon, neces
sitating, as Editor' Rutherford Yeates
put it, "first come, first serve."
After tomorrow's distribution,
copies will be handed out every after
noon thereafter from 4 to 6 until the
supply is exhausted. A shipment of
1000 copies is to be received on Satur
day, while another carload of 1000
will arrive next Wednesday.'
Editor Yeates yesterday expressed
his gratitude to those whom he worked
with. He stated: "The comparatively:
early date of distribution has been
due to the aggressive co-operation of
the Jan Oilier Engraving Company of
Chicago and the Lassiter Press, Inc.,
of Charlotte. Both of these companies
have done a fine job.
THANKS
"I want to thank the members of
campus organizations for their co-operation
in connection with their pages.
My thanks are also extended to Miss
Virginia Giddens, Carl Pugh, John
Creedy, and Sanford Stein for con
tributions although they were riot
full-time members of the staff. I
would like to thank the staff, relatively
small this year, who worked them
selves to the bone.
"The biggest sore-spot in the book
is the lack of indMdual pictures ' of
freshmen and sophomores. The faculty
section has not the personal touch
that the students might appreciate,
but it's a good catalogue for the
operations of the different schools. It
would be of interest, however, to
those students who do not see it m
daily operation."

committee will sponsor a one-day cam

tory with the same arrangements
planned for the fraternities. Town

Meeting Tomorrow
With Charley Wood and his band,
recent winners of the campus swing
contest, and Alonzo Squires, imper
sonator, on hand, the rising sophomore
class will meet in Memorial hall to
morrow morning at 10:30 to decide on
individual pictures in next year's
Yackety-Yack.
Editor Jack Lynch of the yearbook
has favored individual photos " in the
Yackety-Yack for next year, instead
of the group pictures used in the past.
He pointed out that the sophomore
classes at Wake Forest. Davidson
State college, Duke, and several of the
smaller schools in North Carolina take
individual photos and that this Uni
versity is one of the few without them
He also explained how a much
neater yearbook would result with the
doing away with the present "make
shift" group pictures. Under the new
system, Lynch added, organizations
would not have to" take group pictures,
since an individual photo of each mem
ber would be available:
PRECEDENT
The editor predicted that, should the
rising sophomore class pass the meas-
re, a precedent will be set for next
year s tresnmen to tollow. Payment
for the photos, which would be includ
ed in student fees would be made in
the following manner: $1.45 the first
quarter and $1.50 the second quarter.
Tomorrow morning's program will
include several of Charley Wood's
latest arrangements of the song hits
of the day. Squires, blind rising sopho-

400 Years Ago
Over 800 Votes Counted In
Tar Heel PoH; Results Ex

The method used by Carolina stu
dents to grade their professors has
been in use for over four hundred
years.
The Grade-Your-Prof poll originat
ed in the universities of Spain during
the sixteenth century when the stu
dents were allowed to elect all salaried
men of the universities to office.
According to the statutes of sixteenth
century Spanish universities three men
were eligible as candidates for pro
fessorship each year. The candidates
were to deliver a trial-lecture to the
students and then await the outcome
of the election to know if their posi
tions were permanent.
ONE VOTE
Each student was allowed 'one vote
provided that he had heard" the trial
lectures of the candidates.
