WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 24, 1,941 THE DAILY TAR HEEL PAGE THREE Campus Keyboard By The Staff A few years ago Kay Kyser, one of the boys in school here, got behind a scheme of his for a "Meet, Greet, Speak Week," and placed democratic uvcptvg Carolina friendli- tt?a ness on a new gh LUiA level. Ever since we've been here we've heard echoes of what Kyser did in the urge of upper classmen that we speak to our neigh bors on the pretty paths (and those which aren't so pretty), which make up the Carolina Campus Highway system. Chapel Hill is a traditionally friend ly place and by right it should be, with girls and boys from all over the world mingling in a congenial atmosphere and needing, craving, and getting friendship which puts sugar on the pills of wisdom. It's not a mushy sort of sentimental friendship, either; it's one of those co-operative attitudes which make working pleasurable and pleasure workable. Far be it from us to lead a pep fight or a spirit crusade for hand-shaking. But we'd like to make it our duty to reiterate a little tradition which has made Chapel Hill the most delightful and progressive educational center in the South. As we go to press with the first edition the Russian situation looks especially bad for the proofreaders and printers, however, if the situa tion becomes acute perhaps the Tar Heel will find some experienced All-American football announcer to fill in. - And there was the rather emotional middle aged woman who was seen talking nay! almost weeping to Mrs. Welch at the information booth in South building the other day. It seems that she was wor LOAT riej about the fat CAROLINA that no one would meet her only male offspring at the bus station when he arrived. But that wasn't the point. The real worry was that if he were not met that (slielp me) he wouldn't be able to find the University. axxoss 1 Vessel ta which eJ U noted Irons miam S Mine Mine etrtraoce II Bon of Adas Give viUlUr to IS Mao who told birthright to Jacob IS Area projecting r enemy tern tor, 1" Pertain lr.f to VIkIr 1 State oX being red 20 Metric quart 33 Animal doctor tool 23 Storage lake 35 Appendage to water. 2a Roman highway 29 Metric oeuuru of area 30 Shatter 31 Penitentiary (alan 32 Threw about 3 Ostrtch-like bird IS More Judiciooaiy wise 35 Brine to wrong conclusion 40 Ou t-oi od ed 43 Oiree life to 44 Falsehoods 45 Most stringent 48 Oarden of paradise 47 -Rio By IARS MORRIS AKSVtEJt TO ntsviocs rczxu t cjoUplll KQ( i DjgR 2351 g T UT 5- I iAITEfi Je mi" "ill gAbjE I St S T k US g trSy A u g e l s ., a. m ?

Millionaires on loose. Iowa State Teachers Foot All Social Bills CEDAR FALLS, Iowa (ACP) With coeds footing the bills, social life is flourishing again at Iowa State Teachers college. For several months dating languish ed at the school, where there are two women students for every man. The men just didn't seem interested. Finally, the women threw coyness to the winds and invited the men to a "Femme's Fancy" dance all expenses paid. It worked, and the process was repeated at the college's Valentine day dance. Now the girls are saving their spending money and lining up dates for the Mardi Gras ball. At first the college paper protested at the reversal of social procedure. Its pleas were in vain. As for the men, their attitude was summed up by one nonchalant spokes man this way: "It's a good idea. Now a fellow's social life won't hamper his supply of pocket money." 1 " Of course, Bill, those other fra ternities have some good boys. Maybe we have, maybe we haven't, but we think we've got just the type of fel lows that you'd naturally want to live with. You've 'seen HERE S jj0W friendly they HOY are,' you always seem to feel at home around here, and I don't mind telling you, Bill, the brothers think a hell of a lot about you. You wanta think about the fella's when you join a frat not about the cups, and the house just say to your self, are these the kinda fellas I wanta spend my college life with? Are these the kinda fellas . I want to associate with the rest of my life. Are these the kinda fellas I'd want my sister to go out with? And when you've thought about those things, just remember, Bill, we really wantcha; kid, we real ly do .. ." And so another rushman will go through the mill in a couple of weeks. And when it is all over, he'll be happy with the frat he joined, but hell laugh at some of the things that were told him. It never fails, brother, never. And then there was the frosh at the smoker the other night. Fumes were thick and the people thicker. A little more oil and a lot of tin and it would be the same old sardine gag. The frosh tapped his neighbor on the collar bone; "Cheezz, guy just like the subway, just like the subway." By Ed Lashman His name is Johnnie Green and he just got to town. He used to be Joe College but that was way back when the typical college student was just -a good-time-Charlie. That was in the days of going to State for the dances and the week-ends the rah rah boys and 23-skidoo." Eut Johnnie Green isn't like that anymore. He's just as ignorant and scared and bewildered. But this fel low's different. His education means something to him. He's probably work ing part or all of his way through the University so that he can be an ac countant or a doctor or a lawyer or a personnel administrator. You know Johnnie. All the Sopho mores and upperclassmen say, "You can tell 'em bv that 'innocent lamb' look." He's the guy who's been asking you all week'where South building and Manly dormitory are. He points gin gerly and identifies the Arboretum to fellow frosh. Student Body President Johnnie is all freshmen and one freshman. Johnnie is going to be pre sident of the Student body and speaker of the legislature and president of the YMCA. He comes from Rocky Mount and Scotland Neck and New Orleans and Chicago and Los Angeles. Johnnie has been coming in here by bus and train and with his family in the car ever since Monday. He came up early to take the Naval ROTC phy sical or for the YMCA retreat or just so the folks could look the place over. Johnnie with all his self-confidence and cocksureness all gone is completely lost. He doesn't know his . way around yet and he almost adds "sir" to his ques tions and then wishes he had. ' When Johnnie gets into Chapel Hill he has his freshman handbook with him all the time. He wonders "Gosh, what's my roommate going to look like?" Or he's worried whether he's " even got a room. But Johnnie knows one thing almost as soon as he gets here. He soon finds out that he's on terms of equality with the upperclassmen that though they laugh and tease "freshman" that they're all swell guys and that they start out with the idea that he's a swell guy, too. Unless they find out differently. Then he's dubbed fresh man scornfully, "Grow up, brother!" Then he's Joe College. Honor System He goes through the whirl of activity of orientation week in a daze. He takes that first placement test with his heart thumping against his ribs. He meets his student adviser and listens to talk about the Hill and about the Honor system. And pretty soon he can find the library almost the first try. But when he walks the paths alone at night, he's kinda scared but he wouldn't ad mit it. Today he got up at 7 o'clock for his 8:30 Social Science class. He left his toothbrush and soap on the shelf as he did at home. Then he went over to Lenoir dining hall and stood in line. Johnnie got a couple of fried eggs and seme coffee he was a college man now and he could drink coffee if he wanted to, by gods. He gulped the food down afraid that he'd be late for class. Then he almost ran over to Saunders. He got there ten minutes to 8. The awful moment of the first -class.' Talking with the fellows and wondering about the prof. The hush ed silence. A gulped "Here", to the roll call. . And suddenly, something began to fill up in Johnnie's chest. He wanted to sing or shout or something. Finally he was really a part of Chapel Hill. But when he got back to the dorm almost bubbling over with enthusiasm, someone said, "Wait till you see Chapel Hill in the spring." WELCOME CAROLINA!
