Student-Faculty Leaders
Discuss Buc Fate Today
Another crisis in the turbulent his
tory of the Carolina Buccaneer comes
up today as a committee of student
and faculty leaders meet today to
discuss the situation brought about
by the imprisonment of Editor Mack
Hobson for attempted murder of his
sweetheart July 21. ,
The suggestion has been made that
now would be an opportune time to
abolish the problem publication since
there would be no editor to oust.
If the magazine is to continue, a
new editor will have to be chosen im
mediately in order that he might get
his staff organized to put out the first
issue in October.
Who would take Hobson's place is
hard to say. He had no opposition in
the general campus election last year,
indicating that the senior staff may

But it was not until the other day,
she relates, that she was suspected
of being a fifth columnist.
She and her assistant were setting

Annual Coed Ball Opens
Fall Social Season
For Carolina Students
Members of both sexes at Carolina
will have an opportunity to pass judg
ment on the other tonight at 9:30
when the annual Co-ed Ball, the first
social dance of the fall season, getsf
underway at Graham Memorial. The
Paul Jones opening has been aban
doned in favor of the pep rally, bu
that won't detract from the dance. For
once the evening opens lost time will
be made up with Freddy Johnson's
orchestra, all the new coeds, their
lottery-chosen escorts, and additional
stags that Richard Worley and the
dance committee have provided.
The annual Co-ed Ball on the Car-
olina campus is something that every
new Co-ed looks forward to with
great deal of anticipation. It's the
night when the fairer sex have their
'coming-out party.' Yes, new faces
will take the spotlight.
All dates for tonight's affair are
blinds.' The gentlemen are typical
of the University. The fairer sex is
composed completely of new coeds. It
will be a swell experience for both.
After the newer feminine element
on the campus has been exposed to
the sterner male elements until one
o'clock, there will be still another
hour for the coed to stay out with
her escort of the evening.
President
To DefendUNC
Defense Work
By Bncky Hanrard
Speaking on "The University and
National Defense" Dr. Frank Porter
Graham will officially open the 147th
session of the University before the
student body at a convocation in
Memorial Hall this morning at 10:30.
The address will be more formal
and significant than usual because the
president is expected to speak both
for the University and himself in de
fense against criticism of Carolina's
active part in the country's national
defense program.
Favors Aid to Allies
Dr. Graham, an outstanding mem
ber of the William Allen White com
mittee on Aid to the Allies, has play
ed an extremely active part in the es
tablishment and promotion of the
naval ROTC, the enlarged CAA
course and airport and compulsory
physical education for all male undergraduates.
His address will probably bring
out the University's general philos
ophy about aiding in preparedness
and the way in which it has been re
flected in the recent development of:
preparedness units.
The program will be opened with
the singing of "America" led by Clyde
Keutzer, new head of the voice de
partment in the University school of
music. An invocation by YMCA sec
retary Harry Comer will follow.
Administrative Dean R. B. House,
who will preside, will introduce Dr.
Graham.
The program this morning is one
of the few during the year where Dr.
Graham addresses the entire student
body; It' is also one of the most im
portant programs (of the year insofar
that it does officially open the Uni
versity.
