The Daily News extends its heartiest congratulations to Orville
Campbell, editor, and the whole staff of the Daily Tar Heel for its
eye opening special edition of May 10. Here at last is a panorama of
the activities of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill;
both in style and content it is excellent. "We have tried to make it
comprehensive," says the editor.

The new council wants the students to under

O
Naturally names can't be revealed, and the
reader must realize that no two cases are the
same. Two sophomores may be caught cheating,
and one may be suspended the other put on pro
bation. The council should not be criticized for
this action for there are more facts than can be
printed in the Tar Heel. If too many facts are re
leased the identity of the student might he re

had planned to enter the armed forces and get a
commission. Now it is impossible for them to do
so. The council would like to make it clear that

On the question of sending American armed

he introduced an amendment to prohibit aid to

TREASURE HUNT ...
Another $5 bill will be given away today by
Graham Memorial and the Carolina Magazine.
The first $5 was found Sunday by Martin Barrier,
whose adventures are described on today's front
page.
Clues will not be put up until 10:30 this morn
ing, or any morning hereafter. Because false
clues appeared Sunday, the rest of the Hunt clues
will be stamped "Daily Tar Heel" and signed by
Walter Klein. If the clues don't have that identifi
cation, they're forgeries.
Here's how any University man or coed can
get today's $5 bill:
1. Solve either one of the two clues below.
2. Track down those clues at 10 :30 or after.
3. Track down the second clue, and you'll find
the $5.
The Treasure Hunt is a game of speed, so the
longer you wait after 10:30 theless chance you
have of getting to the money first.
If you find the $5, please notify the Daily Tar
Heel immediately, so we can publish your name
and a story about your discovery. Good luck!

And so the Tar Heel Senator has brazenly bel

decided by the people of North Carolina in 1944.
The man who hasn't heard of
Harris must have an embalmed
mind. The little flower of OSCD
has done more to annoy the average
man than anybody else on the Caro
lina campus. Most, however, don't
know the real value of the man.
Harris it was who passed the dance
legislation cut, and all that thereby
hangs. Behind the scenes Harris
worked on the legislature, keeping
out of the public eye because he
knew his own value in publicity and
didn't want to kill the bill by being
openly connected with it. To Harris,
if to anybody, goes the credit for
salvaging student government from
a hopeless morass of apathy and in
suring it against the forages of
South building's big guns.
O
Harris is one of the most cunning
politicians on the campus. It was he
who railroaded Ferebee Taylor into
the speakership when Terry Sanford
left, an act that boomeranged, much
to Lou's discomfort. It was he who
lined up such powerful men as Tom
Long for the magazine combination.
It was he who constantly pushed
Henry Moll on to a greater Carolina
Magazine.
Harris has been criticized for lack
of scruples. I have criticized him
myself, and I still believe I'm right.
Harris has done some of the dirtiest
things this campus has ever seen,
and he is one of the hardest men to
deal with because of this. He is the
reporter's bugbear, none of them
trust him. I know from personal ex
perience, for it was Harris who gave
me the story of a total Carolina black
out in the winter quarter, a story
that I wrote and was spread over the
front page. When the blackout came
off, I took the embarrassment not
Harris.
O s
Nevertheless, without Harris the
good that has been done on the cam
,pus this year would have been de
creased. He, through his Washing
ton connections which are not the
myth that people make them, estab
lished the first student division of .
the office of Civilian Defense at Car
olina. He brought Eleanor Roose
velt to Carolina at the ISS-CPU con
ference. He passed the dance cut;
he passed the combination. He was
the student beginner of the Emer
gency Committee and the May Day
celebration. He's a high economics
student.
Harris leaves Carolina in three
:weeks. Many will sigh with relief,
.. but I shall miss him. Carolina will
seem dead without the machinations
of a student Harry Hopkins; student
government stands in grave danger
without his sparking brain. He
leaves to conquer greater fields, a
task which 1 am sure will be an easy
one He's already got a foothold in
Washington that would make some

To the Editor:
I have been much interested in
your championing of the coopera
tive housing question. I believe
a properly managed co-op house is
one of the best good-citizen-developing
agencies in college life. I have
heard my father tell how it was
done in his day in the famous old
"clubs" at the famous old schools.
In my , own student days I knew
students, both girls and men, and
among them some of the most bril
liant stars on the campus, who were
members of such organizations and
enthusiastic about them. I have
watched the movement grow. This
year a group you have named "fam
ous" have been my-near neighbors.
I saw them move in with mis
givings because some of our stu
dent neighbors last year had been a
menace to peace and property. But
these boys have done a good job.
As the movement grows here I think
they' should be honored as a sort
of Founding Fathers group for the
good name they have given the co
op idea and the good example they
have worked out for future groups
to follow. I believe the zoning regu
lations of the village should be held
fast as a wise protection to property
owners. But surely some way can
be found to do that and still house
groups like these co-op neighbors of
mine. A quiet place to live is a
necessity to real student, meaning
study, life. So the enjoyment of it
becomes one of the "fundamental
freedoms" of citizenship in a college
community. The fifth column sort
who would creep in to turn liberty
to license we must hold in check and
cast out. But a group who would
share, not shatter, the blessing
should be more than welcome.
Sincerely yours,
E. M. Preston
To the Editor:
Sound and Fury wants to thank
the Daily Tar Heel for making Sa
turday's "Are you Kiddin'?" pos
sible and for the opportunity cf
helping raise money for the Tar
Heel Social Room Fund. The ex
perience of having a sponsor behind
us was an entirely new and an al
together delightful one, and with
out your generous cooperation, the
show wouldn't have been possible.
If the audience, and particularly
the Seniors, had as much fun at
"Are you Kiddin'?" as we did, we're
satisfied. If the Tar Heel worried
as much about the show beforehand
as we did, we're sorry. Thanks
again- for helping us with our show,
and best success to the Tar Heel
Social Room Fund.
Very sincerely,

Pass The Mud in Missouri) "The
best thing to Co is not to get stuck
that is, in the mud in Missouri,"
according to a news item in the New
York Sunday News. "Highway Pa
trol Troopers aren't carrying tow
chains, heretofore an important part
of their complement. They say they
can't afford to tear up their cars
these days pulling motorists out of
ditches." .
We don't realize what an advan
tage we have in being able to live
in a state where there is no danger
of getting stuck in the mud. We
have just recently been assured that
we have a two-fold check against
such a ditch calamity. Not only
did they take our tires away so as to
protect us from devilish little ditch
es but they made sure that such an
accident would not happen to us by
taking our gas away too. Boy, ain't
we lucky!

While walking to the ball game
last week, I happened to see St.
Clair Pugh, headed in the same di
rection, and surrounded by the usual
bevy of female admirers. "Which
end are we going to sit on?" gaily
questioned one of the lady friends.
Pugh came back with the typical an
swer, "Which end do we' ususally sit
on?"

Quotable Quotes: Two boys were
walking along by the Gymnasium
the other day when a particularly
unattractive coed approached. The
first boy turned around and said,
"Well, you can have her." "Oh no,"
retorted the other, "I saw her first,
you can have her." Sounds kinda
backwards, doesn't it? "Boy, did
you see Rita Hayworth Monday
night? Why, I couldn't even keep
my mind on the picture!" Who
could.
One guy at the Duke-Carolina
game got a little hot under the col
lar when Dan wandered over to the
Duke bench. When one of the play
ers began patting the friendly ca
nine, the aforementioned student
stood up and roared, "Get your
hands off that dog." All of which
brings up this question, who leads
a better life, a dog or a Duke man?
If you like tragedies, you will
enjoy reading this heart-rending
story about Paul Nolan. Paul, who
lives in 108 Aycock, has an alarm
clock which is very treacherous. This
devilish timepiece delights in go
ing off three and four times a night
and at the most ungodly hours, too.
And, then on a morning when he
just has to meet an 8:30, no amount
of pleading and winding will make
the saboteur go off. In a letter to
this column, Paul has requested that
I make this appeal so that anyone
who would like a novelty alarm

ful little instrument is 75c at pres
ent but I would consider cutting
the price slightly," reports Paul,
"but I absolutely refuse to pay any
one more than a quarter to take it ,
out of the room and get rid of it."

on a comb placard in the drug store
which reads, "Comb early and avoid
the brush." On the window of a
dry-goods store, "Our summer suits
are not so hot!" And the one in
the meat markets which reports,
"You can't lick our chops."
