PAGE FOUR THE DAILY TAB TTTrTI SATURDAY, MARCH 3 Just Like Snow, Coeds Dispersed All Over Country In Vacation By PHYLLIS GALLUMBECK The countryside was well covered with snow during this current spring vacation as well as various and sundry Carolina coeds who went places and did things. "It seemed much more like Christ mas than spring," was the usual com ment from most of the girls who came back sporting frozen corsages and un worn Easter outfits. However, the consensus of opinion was that a good time wa3 had by all. Among the most fortunate espe - cialiy in a climatic way were Frances Gibson and Marjorie Johnston who spent 'their time basking in the Flor ida sunshine. Marjorie met her par ents in Hollywood, Florida, and Frances visited her home in Tallahas see where her father owns a recently purchased farm. Once during her vaca tion Frances had an invitation to fly to Atlanta, but turned down the chance by telling the young man that she was sorry but her father wanted her to plant corn. . TREES, COWS, HORSES, ETC. "And it wa3 true," Frances said. "Daddy has a place with trees, cows, horses, dogs, running water, and a field." Spencer Watkins spent the holidays at her home in Greensboro, and did nothing much but sleep and eat and wait for the golf tournament, she says. Unfortunately, when the fatal hour for the tournament arrived the ground was so covered with snow that instead of golf the course was used for sledding. Jane Moody, who hails from Ala bama, went to Grundy, Virginia, with her roommate, Billie Sutherland, and returned with a bad case of iced tonsils from gaping at the "perfectly gor geous mountains." "THEY CANT DO THIS . Jane Rumsey visited her sister in Washington, D. C, and "just parried." She had a wonderful time taking all the sugar out of the Pall Mall room in the Raleigh hotel, but also had two unfortunate experiences: a waiter spilled soda water all over her Easter suit, and the bartender refused to sell her drinks, insisting that she was Tinder 21. Probably one of the best times of all "was had by Louise Stiefelmeyer who "visited New York for the first time and ""made the rounds." In Louis Zuccas Testaurant "Stieffie" sat next to alum nus Kay Kyser and Ginnie Sims. Kay was very reticent at first and insisted that he was Pinky Tomlin. But when he found out that "Stieffie" was from Carolina he broke down and auto graphed a wine bottle for her. EDUCATIONAL, TOO "I didn't get in the Easter parade,' she said, "but I learned how to do the Conga and the Boomps-a-Daisy" Betty Dixon and Ann Thornburgh went to Atlanta on the bus "just for fun," and Virginia MacDonald visited Genie Loaring-Clark in Huntsville, Alabama, before going home to Padu- cah, Ky. And all the girls, returning the Tuesday after Easter, remarked with Confucius: "vacation much fun; now necessary to get some work done." Question mark.

In Washington during the summer, Dr. Beale will study the Theodore Roose velt and William Howard Taft manu scripts in the Library of Congress. Tennis (Continued from page three) against Havterford, would probably have ended 9-0 in Carolina's favor; still, some credit must be allowed the Colby boys for their old college try. Robinson and Beadles, reserve play ers, were liquidated out of two unof ficial matches with Colby extras. On the southern tour, Colby has beaten Catawba 6-1", lost to Wake Forest 7-2 and lost yesterday. Kenfield's team is scheduled to meet Dartmouth here Tuesday afternoon. Green Defends ( Continued from first page) the possibilities of a staff being "stuffed" by a single issue. Sincerely, Allen J. Green, Editor, i The Carolina Magazine. This was in answer to a part of Roof's platforni, published in yester day's edition of the Daily Tar Heel, in which Roof was quoted as saying, in opposition to staff nominations, "When a candidate loses a close race' at nominations, despite the fact that his ability i3 equal to that of his op ponent, he is hurt irreparably by the publicity his opponent gets for being a straw-vote winner. Staff nominations are unfair also because an editor de- Student Poll Shows Collegians Against Lowering Voting Age ; Although less than one-third of col lege students are eligible to vote in state or national elections, nearly nine out of every ten believe they should not be allowed to go to the polls be fore they are 21. This is shown in a national study conducted by the Student Opinion Sur veys of America. Asked, "Are you for or against lowering the voting age from 21 to 18?" only 11 per cent answered "yes." That suffrage is for adults only seems to be a fairly-set tradition with the American people, voters as well as non-voting students. A sampling conducted by the American Institute of Public Opinion in June, pointed out that 83 per cent of the nation opposed reducing the suffrage age to 18. CROSS SECTION Interviewing a . carefully-selected cross-section of students in all types and sizes of institutions, the Survey found: For Against All students 11 89 Students 21 or over 12 88 Students less than 21 10 90 The tabulation shows that opinion is heavily in the opposition and all student groups agree by almost identi cal percentages. It should be noted that it is the younger people them selves who are most opposed to allow ing minors 18 to 21 to vote. Students 21 or over a group of nearly half a million are slightly less opposed to such a change" and adult non-students are the least against. The usual reason given in the student poll was that vot ing should be restricted because young people 18 or 19 do not know enough about government. Surveys figures, however, tend to show that sometimes college students are better informed than the average voter. For example, an American Institute poll brought to light that one third of the voters were not familiar with the activities of -the Dies Committee. The Surveys found only 17 per cent of the collegians had no opinion on the same subject. Whether to give younger persons a voice in the government was brought into the headlines recently when the American Youth Commission pointed out that the constantly-increasing unmber of aged people, who are eligi ble to vote, is making possible such programs as the Social Security Act, while youth, which is not enfranchised, has no power to bring about govern ment solution of its problems. termines those eligible to vote at nominations and can 'stuff' his staff so as to throw the vote to his favor ite.

Government Meet (Continued from first page) of Government recently established at Chapel HUL He brought out history and problems of student government at the University, with special emphasis on the relationship between govern ment and the different types of gov ernment in the outside world. He also brought out the fact that the govern ments outside are brought together in the Institute of Government. After Coates had finished, the problems of Carolina student government were discussed along with problems brought up by representatives from other schools. At last night's dinner given in the Carolina Inn, Dean R. B. House was the main speaker, and he also brought out the relationship between govern ment here and the outside, but dwelt longer on the student government it self and its relationship with educa tion. He emphasized, however, the importance of the correlation between faculty and students in the smooth running of an educational institution. Following .the banquet a reception at which Dean and Mrs. House received the delegates was held. Here a bull session was the order of the hour, and then a dance in Graham Memorial. Activities for today will start this morning with separate discussions for men and women students on the honor system in general. Bill Aycock, past president of the federation and at present Director of Resident Centers, a division of the NYA, will speak to the convention at a luncheon at 1 o'clock.
