Blind Piano Wizard Famed
As Unique Impersonator
By Janice' Feitelberg
Like many of the other world famous
geniuses, Alec Temoleton started upon
his career at a very young age. The
man, now in his thirties, who will ap
pear in Memorial Hall on Tuesday at
7:30 p. m., attempted to show his
talents at the age of two when he tried
to imitate his sister at the piano.
His gift in the art of mimicry and
his vivid imagination led him to suc
cess. The sounds of the nearby church
bell attracted his attention and he tried
to imitate them on the piano. There's
an incident told in the life story of
Temnleton which bears a striking re-
semblence to the story of Mozart who
found it necessary to reach a distant
note on the keyboard with the tip of
nse. At the age of four, Templeton
aA his first composition. Because
his imagination ran too far ahead of

Cut $5,000
By PU Board
Group Gives Nod
On Five Day Week
Tentatively approved by the Public
cations Union board, the Daily Tar
Heel's 1942-43 budget has been slash-,
ed $5,000 together with the rearrang
ing of printing schedules to cut out
one paper a week. "
This move was deemed necessary by
the board due to the 25 per cent drop
in advertising returns a loss of
$3,360 and a reduction of 25 per cent
in student fees.
Not Final
Members of the Publication Union
emphasized that this announcement is

budget will be taken by the legislature

As it stands now, the new budget,
which cuts all phases of the paper
from printing expenses through cross

charges will go into effect Monday. No

The Daily Tar Heel is not the only
campus publication hit by the board's

Grid-Graph to Show
Play-by-Play Result
Of Saturday's Game
Flashing lights in Memorial hall to
morrow afternoon will bring the Caro
lina students the most rapid fire re
ports available on the Tulane game via
special leased wire and the grid-graph.
The University club sponsored grid
graph will go into operation at the
kickof f and bring play-by-play reports
of the game to the students. Tickets
may be obtained from any member of
the University club or at the Y office
until noon tomorrow, when they will
go on sale at the door only.
The grid-graphw itself consists of a
large oval board in the center of which
is a large white gridiron marked off
with yard strikes and end zones. Pro
gress of the ball during the game is
shown by a light which shines through
the gridiron screen and is moved to
a corresponding position each time the
ball in the Tulane stadium is moved
The names and positions of all the
players are listed on the board just
outside of the end zone of the goal they
are defending. On each play a light
flashes beside the name of the player
who is given the ball. Another light
flashes beside the name of the oppos
ing player or players who stop the
man with the ball. All substitutes are
made by inserting a new name card in
the proper space.
Across the top of the board lights
show the score of each team', the num
ber of the quarter, the number of the
down, and the time remaining in the
period.
Below the gridiron on the board are
listed the various types of plays used.
As each of these occurs in the game a
light flashes above it showing what
type of play was used.

to a smelter where it can, be converted
to useful material.
Scrap To Be Sold ,
-: At" present "there" is 'approximately
20,000 pounds of scrap in the pile.

The first eight girls on the long
list of new coeds attended the honor
council meeting in Graham Memorial
banquet hall Wednesday night at 7:30
to have the honor code explained to
them by Betty Powell, honor council
secretary.
Coeds were precautioned first
against "lying, cheating and stealing.
These words are the "very basis of
the honor code," Miss Powell stressed,
"and take in much more territory than
new coeds think." The code not only
means that a girl should not violate
these principles herself, but is on her
honor to report other violators. The
council has the power to probation

Student Heads
To Meet Here
By Bob Levin
In a telephone conversation between
W. D. Carmichael, s controller, and
Dean E. L. Cloyd of State college last
night, Cloyd said that arrangements
were being completed to return Rame
ses to Carolina before the end of this
week.
It was definitely known that the
ram was in Raleigh yesterday when
the Daily Tar Heel together with
other State papers received an open
letter from the State student body
stating that "Rameses was taken as a
prank and is being well taken care of."
The letter further stated that State
students want to cooperate with Caro
lina to prevent "fights and damages to
school and private property" resulting
in a possible cancellation of the foot
ball game.
Action by administration heads
came after it was announced by the
red and white underground channel
that Rameses was temporarily resid
ing in Raleigh, 30 miles away. In or
der to prevent border warfare between
the two units of the greater Univer
sity action was begun immediately to
get the ram back.
Bert Bennett, student body presi
dent, announced last night that plans
are being formulated between both
student bodies to hold a joint meeting
here Sunday night to draw up better
relation agreements.
A telegram was sent the State stu
dent body president last night asking
him to arrange final details for a rep

WASHINGTON, Oct. 22 (UP)
U. S. Marines and Army troops have

against the American western flank
on Guadalcanal the 'first enemy land

The attack which occurred Monday

Though the communique did not say
so, it appeared that the Jap land
