You pay $6.90 every year for your Carolina publications. And 1.35 of that
amount will go next year for publishing: either one new campus magazine
or both Tar an' Feathers and the Carolina Mag. Into the hot-pot of combi
nation versus the status quo, today we throw some cold figures which you
will find printed in the editorial column.
Combination Has More Cartoons, Photos,
Eight Less Pages Than Separate Publications
GRINDSTONE By Bucky Harward
Here are the cold figures on the issue of estab
lishing 'one campus magazine to take the place
of Tar an Feathers and the Carolina Mag.
These budget estimates are not hidebound.
They are just as stable as next year's enrollment
and the state of next year's business, nothing
which could be more elastic There are two facts
certain. First, the income estimates, if anything,
are optimistic Second, if income should fall be
low the estimates on which the prognostications
ceive $20) and $10 for an art-humor editor, $5
for a literary editor and $5 for a managing editor.
This would take the place of the two $20 editor's
salaries that are paid now. The business manager
would probably earn about $250 a year.
The new combination Magazine would cost, a
total of $6,166, would leave $198 to take care of
unforeseen expenses and to counteract our opti
mism on income.
Alternative, of course, would be two separate
across the desk ...
Things are really blooming boom
ingly this spring. Staff nomina
tions, May Day, last minute nomina
tions, campaign anagers, big doings
in the legislature, membership drives
by organizations to replace vacancies
by hopeful seniors, and countless oth
er attributes that make the Spring
quarter a different quarter.
We came across a very interesting
paragraph the other day in Aldous
Huxley's Paint Counter Point which
we felt rather appropriate and some
what food for thinking.
"But it's so silly, this political
. squabbling, so utterly silly. Bol
sheviks and Fascists, Radicals and
Conservatives, Communists and
what the devil are they all fighting
about? IH tell you. They're fight
ing to decide whether we shall go to
hell by communist express or capital
istic racing motor car, by individual
istic bus or collectivist tram running
on the rails of state control. The des
tination is the same in any case.
They're all of them bound for Hell,
all headed for the same psychological
impasse and social collapse that re
sults from psychological collapse. The
only point of difference is : How shall
we get there? .... The question for
the man of sense is : Do we or do we
not want to go to Hell? ..."

"Confessions of a Forty Acres Ex-Politician"

a frank expose of the workings of a campus polit

It is needless to mention that there has been
obvious "preening" on this campus.

When we read this article, we got some satis

The Watchful Six, have reported
a very pungent plot to the local

to awaken the Carolina student body
by blowing up Tenable. This two
purposed plot aims for the dual de

Chapel Hill and the Chem building.
We must lend our entire support to

O
Did anybody ever ruminate on the
difficulty of writing enough trash
to fill a full column in the Tar Heel.
We just don't feel up to it today and
cannot see why in the heck we must
fill a column that nobody reads any
way. In fact the only reason we've
bared our inner soul here is because
we sincerely believe that no one will
ever read it, and a lotta print looks
mighty good sometimes. If there's
a lotta, print, no one reads it and so
one doesn't have to write anything
much. That, my friends, is the inner
secret of Carolina columnists and the
reason for their unprecedented popu
larity. Nobody reads their columns.
Some of us are looking most pa
triotic these days. Blue under the
eyes, unduely red about the mouth,
and a ghastly white about the jaws.
The editors have wished to an
nounce that no dirty stuff will appear
in this column. Across the Desk will
be above board in all instances. All
stabs will be overhanded. This is a
necessary item in view of the Emer
gency Committee's request.

RECIPE MESSIPY
Excerpt from the Herald Tribune:
Berry Sauce
- 1 cup crushed berries "
powdered sugar L-
juice of 1 orange
1 cup sour cream whipped
Mix berries, sugar if desired, and
fruit juice and chill thoroughly. Just
before serving, fold in the sour eream.
Approximate yield: 2 cups sauce.
This fish cocktail is a novelty that
will have to be tried to be believed !
Don't ask how the lime juice cooks
the fish, because we don't know. But
it does. And the flavor is delicate
and delicious.
And so

Fried Chicken
The Herald T. does loudly shout
That miracles are here;
For, if they know what they're about,
Such funny stuff as sauerkraut
Will make a bouncing, tender trout
Though disbelievers sneer.
So if you find you've oft decried
The war and price's rising tide,
If deep within you have a side
Which only can be satisfied 1
By mountain trout in butter fried
And served with tartar sauce beside,
And if you find you've never tried
The Tribune's latest dish,
We beg that you will now decide
To let the nation be your guide
And go where others have complied ;
For where before you merely sighed
Or with some other angler vied,
Today your trouble's rectified
Because a Tribune writer's spied
A recipe that true and tried
For lovely ersatz fish.
Just take a pound of Grade A cheese,
Mix with bark from apple trees,
Asparagus and cherry tarts,
And toads and frogs and lettuce
hearts:
Stir in a quart of boiling beer
And chill until this time next year.
Thus you yourself, without expense
Ur diabolic instruments
Can fashion any sort of dish
To satisfy your palate's wish.

PRELUDE TO SPRING: Spring
turns one's thoughts to many things,
- but Tennyson expressed it modestly
by calling it love. Proof of his first
famous, then trite lines may be glean
ed from the telegram recently re
ceived by the oft-mentioned ia this
column Casanova-extraordinary and
betrayer of the innocent hearts of
fair ladies, Bill Brown. This missive
of passion read: "Wrote you Mon
day. Have not heard from you yet.
What's the matter, didn't last week
end mean anything to you?"
e
MARATHON: George Long, who
is from Morganton, the home of
Broad Oaks better known as the nut
house, became entangled in a wager
which brought him recognition by the
U. S. army as the discoverer of "fluid
walk." Greed for ten dollars led him
to trudge 29 miles to Raleigh in nine
hours. Returning on a stretcher, two
days later he again walked after
the fashion of the Bible because the
soles of his feet were entirely covered
with two large blisters.
O
PURE COIN: During one of journ
alism 55's frequent true-false quizzes
on current events, Tom Adams was
caught without his Tar Heel down.
Resorting to the coin method, he
flipped out a hundred on ten ques
tions, but a neighbor's perfect score
kept him from being the only student
with a hundred. "Hey." he complain
ed, confident that there had been
some cheatin goin' on, "this guy
looked on my coin."
O
APROPOS LA POLITIQUE:
Here we have the typical Carolina
student, Stradivarius Axley, who
lives in BVP and goes to Graham
Memorial to vote. As he strolls out
of the dorm to exercise, and it is ex
ercise, his franchise, he is met at the
door by four men in convertibles who
pleasantly ask to take him to the
polls. Being a proletariat and a fu
ture member of the CIO, he elects
to walk. Whistling, he reaches the
Confederate soldier unharmed, but
there he is met with a swarm of
politicos who deluge him with litera
ture. He is lucky for the propaganda
is printed upon mere paper and is
light.
Accompanied by the din of a score
of oily voices, he begins to receive
heavy literature, cardboard and glos
sy paper, as he approaches the polls.
Someone strikes a match and he has
to run for his life. When he finally
reaches the polls he is exhausted from
the burden of priority paper and col
lapses in front of the box. A party
leader marks his ballot for him. He
is carried away on a stretcher.
O
THOUGHT TO CARRY YOU
THROUGH THE WEEKEND: A
pinch of salt is greatly improved
by adding a glass of beer.
O
COEDUCATION: Judge Hobbs,
of the commerce school, has a strict
regulation against smoking in his
class. '"When you fellows fill the
room with smoke," he says coyly,
"then I can't see the coeds."
