By Darley Lochner Carolina students are today being given an opportunity to join the outstanding state symphony society in the nation. Whit Os good, chairman of interf raternity council, is directing the campus membership drive assisted by a committee composed of student leaders. Said by critics to be a unique development in symphony orchestras, the North Carolina group is the first state symphony in the nation. Mem bers, who are charged two dollars a year for the privilege, are eligible to attend all public concerts given each year by the orchestra. Last year there were 104 such concerts throughout North Carolina. Plan Many Special Programs Plans are now being made by Ben jamin Swalin, director, for a much larger season than last year's. In ad dition to the regular concerts there will be special programs for school children. College members of the so ciety will find it convenient to attend many of the symphony presentations offered by the symphony since many concerts are given in the vicinity of Chapel Hill, state headquarters. Osgood said yesterday that his com mittee was planning to give each stu- j dent an opportunity to become a member of the symphony society. How ever, if the committee fails to con tact any interested student they may buy a membership through Osgood Sigma Nu house, or E. Carrington Smith, symphony chairman for Chapel Hill. Student Committee Members Student , members of. the symphony. committee are Blount Stewart, Bil Woestendiek, Dewey Dorsett, Barbara Cashion. Charley Fulton, Nonnie Morris, and Sallie Robertson.

SWALIN U.S. Observers Barred From Balkan Election Moscow, Oct. 22 (UP) Russia has turned down an American request to check on the coming Bulgarian elections. The elections, to" be held next Sunday, were described by .the Russians as wholly Bulgaria's busi ness. A Soviet official says that any interference in that Balkan country's internal affairs would be rude. This refusal to permit watchers at the elections raises the possibility that we may in turn refuse to accept the re sults, further postponing our recog nition of Bulgaria. Up to now, we have been withholding recognition until satisfied that the Bulgarian govern ment has complied with the Moscow agreement to set up a representative government. Cotton Trading Slump Recovers Loss Today Memphis, Oct. 22 (UP) Cotton trading, which slumped as much as $10 a bale in the early market, recov ered most of its losses by closing to day.

All traffic was stopped around the Lord Baltimore hotel as worker's and . customers ' in nearby stores dashed into the streets to hear the' Tar Heel yells. Cheerleaders were on every car hood; Carolina buttons on every lapel;, the lobby buzzed with "how you?" and "when 'd cha get in?" Tar Heels were on hand.

Kenan stadium ticket sales and Al umni association reports have not as yet given any Indication that an overwhelming crowd will trek to Cha pel Hill for the annual affair, how ever campus organizations, led by the University club, are making a strong attempt to revive the prewar flash and excitement. The homecoming program will op en Friday evening with the season's first torchlight parade, set to orig inate at Y court at 7:00, following the campus itinerary. Immediately afterward a pep rally will be held from the 50-yard line to the 10, found organized cheering slightly more dif ficult. Spirit, however, was unhamp ered; as touchdowns rolled by, fever ish students screamed with such vigor that even solemn alumni soon melted, and, infected with the contagious en thusiasm, shouted with college days' vitality.

Ties Foil Field As Harwell Wins Weekly Football Contest Mizell, Miles Place Close Second, Third; New Entry Blanks Are Due this Afternoon - By Sam Whitehall - - .. Three tie games in national collegiate football over the past weekend disappointed 1200 entrants in the Graham Memorial football contest, yet gave partial consolation to winner Robert Harwell, 903 Sixth street, Durham', who pinpointed the Cornell Yale 6-6 tie. Averaging .780 for the contest, Har-3 squad present, according to Cheerleader Devan Barbour. Head well stumbled on the Michigan-Northwestern and Ohio State-Purdue ties, as well as the Indiana-Iowa, and Brown-Dartmouth battles, and gave up on the Tennessee Vols' upset of Alabama, predicting a tie for the latter. Half credit was granted for his 21-20 prognostication .for the Tar Heel-Navy tiff. DORSEY TICKET FOUND Coach Dick Jamerson is holding a ticket to the Tommy Dorsey dance series which' was lost at the Maryland game. Jamerson, whose office is in Woollen gymnasium, will return the ticket to the student whose name is endorsed on it. Runners-up, with almost identical papers, were .Robert C. Mizell, Tin Can, second, and Wilson M. Miles, 716 Gimghoul road, both with a .750 score. However, the fact that Mizell 's entry was turned in twenty minutes earlier than Miles' automatically placed him second under prevailing contest rules. ' An even dozen entrants came up with the correct 21-14 score for the Carolina tilt, among them, Jayne Childs, Dave Owens, Don Shropshire, Dick Stern, Mark Smernoff, and R. H. Taylor. At the same time it was noted that none of the 12 numerically correct prognosticators turned in an average of better than 60 per cent for the twenty national football win ners, other than home game. Again this week, upsets and ties foiled DTH sports editor Irwin Smallwood, who strung along with national bookmakers in over-optimis-tically penciling 28-6 for the Tar Heel score, and turned in a .650 average, still five per cent above that of en trant A. Kilroy, who now lists his address as IiOwer Slobbovia. Last week's "genius," Harry Wine coff, who missed but three games in winning t.he previous contest, sunk to a low par of ,500 for this week, and was bettered only slightly by Chuck Heath, first week's winner, who, how ever, correctly guessed the Tar Heel score. Gala Displays Urged Judging of the lawn displays is to take place Saturday forenoon by an as yet unnamed panel. Mike Morrow, president of the University club, is urging all dormitories and fraternity and sorority houses to return to the ante bellum splendor and cleverness though a $25 cost limit has been placed on exhibits. Held for two con secutive years by Pi Beta Phi, the Pi Kappa Alpha cup will be awarded at the dance Saturday." """ Florida, considered strong despite its loss to Miami, meets the Tar Heels here Saturday afternoon. Seats are still available today up to the 30-yard lines on the north side of Kenan stadium, and some four sec tions remain open on the Carolina side. Ticket Sales Manager Vernon B. Crook said yesterday that though "weather will determine the on-the- spot selling Saturday afternoon," it appears that there will be plenty of room. "However," he added, "we'll definitely have a bigger crowd than at the Maryland game." Dance to Benefit Club Roy Cole and his UNC orchestra, whose Graham Memorial concert Sun day attracted several hundred lis teners, is to play for the Saturday evening Grail dance in Woollen gym nasium. The Grail, which will back the affair to benefit the University club, has not yet announced arrange ments. J. Maryon Saunders, director of the alumni office, declared yesterday that no formal reunions or meetings have been, planned by the G.A.A. Ruth, Mary Moore Are Carolina's Two Jills in Jeep Twins Make Lives of ' Lost Weekend' Victims Miserable s f Just Walking around Campus Minding Their Own Business By Thomasene Cates With acute shortages in bottled spirits hitting the Carolina vicinity, many students claim that a lost week end is not necessary to see double images on the campus. On dance floor in a jeep, several bewildered blurry-eyed males have given "that Moore girl" a cold look for trying to confuse them by saying one minute, "I'm Mary." The next, "My name is Ruth." The answer to the local "Comedy of Errors" is that "the Moore girl" actually not one but two coeds. Toujours Together ' Ruth and Mary Moore, 19-year-old identical twins from Lumberton, are transfers from Peace Junior college, where they also made life miserable for unsuspecting males. They are majoring in sociology, and room to gether (naturally) on third floor Smith.

With practically the same inter ests, both girls plan to go into some kind of social work after finishing college. "We both like about the same things, we eat the same kinds of food, like the same kind of clothes, make about the same grades in school, like the same type of people and even fall in love with the same men," said Ruth as she told of the mix-ups they have over dates. Jeep Belongs to Brother As for the jeep, it belongs to their brother, Cutlar, returned veteran from the class of '42. According to Ruth, every time the jeep gives out of gas, Cutlar calls them up and tells them they can use it. Ruth and Mary, who think "Caro lina is a swell place," plan to try out for drum majorettes.
