Ditzi Buice, president of the wom
an's senate and Bucky Osborne, presi
dent of the interfraternity council an
nounced yesterday that all particulars
of the agreement between fraternities
and coeds had been completed and that
coeds would be allowed in all social and
professional fraternity houses and all
cooperative houses which have signed
the agreement beginning today at 12

After almost two weeks of discus
sion, the agreement has finally ?been
passed on by the interfraternity Coun
cil, the interdorm council, the , coed
senate, the Dean of Women's olfice,
and the Dean of Student's office.
A new requirement of the agreement
is that each member of an organized
house which desires to entertain coeds
must sign the agreement besides hav
ing a representative sign it in the name
of the house. Commenting on this, Os
borne and Buice stated, "Individuals
as well as the house representatives
are asked to sign due to the fact that
it is necessary to make sure that all
persons concerned have read and un
derstood the agreement.
"This pledge does not mean that a
failure to report a violation is a viola
tion of the Honor System, We dont
want to stretch our Honor Code to
cover too many things. All it means
is that the person signing understands
the agreement and will cooperate in
every way possible to make it work.
The interfraternity council represent
ative in the house, however, is on his
honor to see that any violations of the
agreement are reported."
"Any proposed changes in or criti
cism of this agreement, if made in writ
ing, to the house privileges board be
fore Monday will be welcomed."
All fraternities signed the agreement
which enables coeds to visit any house.
The provisions of the agreement are:
1. Houses may entertain women stu
dents only in the social rooms, halls,
porches, and dining halls on the first
floor of their houses. The conduct of
both men and women must always be
in acceptance with the Campus Code
(or as ladies and gentlemen).
2. No alcoholic beverages may be
served in the presence of coeds who are
EHiests of the house.
3. Fraternity houses shall be open to
women students from 12:00 noon Mon

cording to reports yesterday, the
serat nile is mounting faster now
than it has since the drive started.
Reason for this is the increasing
number of trucks being used to col
lect the scrap and the growing
number of students participating in
the drive.
The University, in addition to fur
nishing trucks, is donating scrap in
the form of all the metal pipes
which were being used around the
edges of walks to hold the chains.
The chains, since they, are not
scrap metal, will be used for other
purposes. Jt is estimated that the
combined weights of the pipes will
approach ; 1000 pounds.

Draft Will Hit 80,502
Teen-Age Carolina Boys

Reopened by Coeds
For Second Season
By Walter Klein
Approximately 80,502 North Caro
lina boys 18 and 19 years old will be
hit by the new draft law to be passed
by Congress within a week.
This news was received at the Daily
Tae Heex offices yesterday from an au
thoritative source. The data in this
story is now being computed in Wash
ington and will not appear in state
Tiewspapers for several days. When
the figures are released from the mar
shal general's office in Washington,
they will be relayed to North Carolina
newspapers through the attorney gen
eral's office in Raleigh.
The facts are: .
Approximately 56,514 white men in
North Carolina will be taken under the
new draft statute. Negroes will num
ber about 23.320, revealing that the
white race will contribute 70 per cent
and the Nearro race almost 30 per cent.
Arrordine- to the Daily Tab Heel's
source, 18,452 men will be taken from
urban districts, 19,006 from rural non-
-Farm areas and 43,042 from North
P.ji-rnliTiR farms.
Of these totals, white men drafted!
will number 12,670 in cities, 14,554 in
-rnral non-farm districts and 29,291 on
farms. Urban areas will contribute
5 670 Negroes, rural non-farm areas
A 400 and state farms 13,250 Negroes. I

of other races and 34 foreign born

PU Board
Begins Review
Of Y-Y Budget
The Publications Union board yes
terday began to adjust the budgets of
the three student publications by re
viewing the Yackety-Yack budget.
Yesterday's meeting will be followed
up by one this Monday, perhaps the
most important of the year, to deter
mine the amount of the budgets of the
two other publications, the Daily Tae
Heel and the Carolina Magazine. The
only action taken at the meeting was
to approve in general the Y-Y budget,
pending approval of the other bud
gets.
The importance is in the fact that
these budgets determine the amount
of money that can be spent on pic
tures, etc. Thus, indirectly, the action
will affect the policy of the whole pub
lication. After the budgets are finally passed
by the PU board, they will go before
the student legislature for final ap
proval. In all probability the passage
of the budgets will be quickly con
summated. Bridge Match Slated

The weekly match-point bridge
