Tar Heels Favored Oppose Gators In Kenan Tilt Ex-Carolina Coach Heads Florida Club By Bob Goldwater Undefeated but tied once in four starts, an . injury-riddled Tar Heel team will seek its fourth win of the season today when it opposes the Florida Ga tors in Kenan stadium. The kick off is slated for 2:30 p.m. The Tar Heels have been established as heavy favorites but the contest is likely to develop into a much closer battle than expected. Despite a rec ord of four losses in as many tilts, the Gators, led by a former Carolina coach, Ray "Bear" Wolf, have shown steady improvement and have primed for this clash all year. The starting lineup that Coach Carl Snavely will field is still somewhat un certain due to injuries ito previous starters and also because of the im proved play ; of several reserves. Ex pected to start for the first time this year are two reserves who have shown up well all season, both replacing in jured players. Walt Pupa, who scored the two winning touchdowns against Navy, will take over for Hosea Rod gers at the fullback post and Bob Cox, place-kicking specialist, is the probable starter at the right end in place of injured George Sparger. t out laiibacKs Keady , r Charlie (Choo Choo) J ustice, spark plug of the Blue and White team, is expected to be ready to open at tail back. The .. Asheville speedster was badly bruised in, the. Middie clash and .may not see too much action this week. Bill Maceyko, Billy Myers and Billy Britt will alternate at tailback when See PUPA, Page 3 Two Resolutions Are Recommended By SCHW Chapter Acting in the interests of "a broad er and better base for tate govern ment," the last meeting of the SCHW campus chapter passed two resolutions favoring the adoption of the amend ments now before the voting public. The first of these amendments is de signed to give women the right to serve on juries and other privileges now denied to them by present interpreta tion of the constitution. The second ammendment will in crease the salary of legislators. In spite of whatever criticism there may be of present representation, this am mendment was favored on the grounds that present salaries do not attract enough capable men to serve the best interests of the state. All eligible voters were strongly urged to vote in favor of these two ammendments at the November 5th general election. Liz Willis presiding, it was an nounced that the next meeting of the SCHW on Wednesday October 30 in Graham Memorial would feature an address by Rev. Lee C. Sheppard of Raleigh.

Apartments Work Progressing on 15 Increased Supplies Enable Construction By Roy C. Moose Taking advantage of clearer October weather and an increas ed supply of materials, housing authorities are rushing to com pletion 40 new apartments in "Victory Village" which will be ready for occupancy next week. In addition, work is also progres sing rapidly on 15 apartments for faculty members with a deadline of November 1 to be met. "However, contrary to the many rumors, we are not constructing facul ty units to the detriment of student housing. The units are of two distinct types and we are working on each type as those particular materials arrive," explained Roy Armstrong, Chairman of University Housing Committee. Total Will Be 148 Completion of the 55 new apart ments will bring to 148 the total num ber of housing units ready for mar ried couples, 93 having previously been occupied. An indication of the rapid progress being made is the fact that State Col lege at Raleigh procured identical housing units at the same time as Carolina; however, to date State does not have any of its units occupied, whereas Carolina has had couples in : V A11 JMarried Jouplesoyed In . All married couples on the campus have already, been moved to the "Vil lage," although many are doubling up for. the present, and single students have received the old married dormi tories of Alexander and Whitehead.

In re ply to an invitation from Martha Rice, director of the Student Union build ing, Basil Wolverton of Vancouver, Washington, who recently made his way to the bright lights by drawing the winning picture of Lena the Hy ena in the nationwide- contest recent ly held, said that if he finishes his work on his comic book strips before, the first of November it may be pos sible for him to be on campus for the November 9 festivities. The motto on Wolverton's letterhead states- perfectly his occupation : "Pro ducer of preposterous pictures of pe culiar people who prowl this perplex ing planet."

Something you Don't Expect' "All laughter is based on some form of incongruity," Alec Templeton says. "The 'point' of every joke, regardless of its subject, is a remark or a situa tion that you haven't been expecting." Templeton hears something that suggests a chance for fun and sits down and plays his idea without fur ther planning. However, he never cheapens the musical original and for that reason his pranks are really fun ny. . . -. k.-; Tickets Sales Monday, Tuesday Tickets to tljje student entertain ment series, which is initiated by Tem pleton's concert Tuesday . night, will be on sale again in the "Y" lobby Mon day and Tuesday from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. and from 2 p.m. to "5 p.m. The sub scriptions may be purchased by stu dents and townspeople.

Medical School Plans Meet Firm Opposition Strong opposition to the proposed four-year medical school of the Uni versitv of North Carolina was ex pressed this week at the two day an nual convention of the North Caro lina State Grange held in Clinton.

Students Open Gala Weekend With Pep Rally More Rain Forecast Here Tomorrow By Bill Sexton Yesterday's soggy afternoon utter ly failed to dampen the esprit of nearly 1500 students who opened the homecoming weekend with a rousing parade and pep rally last night, and hopes are high today that the scatter ed showers predicted by the weather men for this afternoon will be far away from Chapel Hill. Steady rain prevented dormitories and fraternity houses from erecting their lawn displays on schedule, but clear sky by nightfall enabled the happy throng of Carolina students to stage a full-spirited pep session. After the torch-lighted parade', first of the season, University club Pres ident Mike Morrow and the cheer leaders led an equally enthusiastic Memorial hall rally. Between songs and cheers, a not-quite capacity crowd heard Coach Bob Fetzer laud the students' reaction to a crowded, con fused campus and ask "another dis play of unified spirit and mass sports manship" in Kenan stadium today. 500 Florida Cheerers More rain has been forcast for cen tral North Carolina, but the first full scale homecoming since 1942 will pro ceed as planned. Two Tar Heel har rier squads onen the athletic nro- gram at 10:30 against the Quantico Leathernecks. At 2:30 the Carolina eleven will take the field against Flori da. Some 500 Gator rooters, led by the 80-piece Florida band, will be there, and the Carolina side has been prac tically filled by advance sale and stu dent tickets. With alumni, 500 Boy Scout guests, and on-the-spot ticket purchasers, Athletic association offici als expect a bigger-than-usual attend ance. Between 10:30 and 12:30 this morn ing a judging panel consisting of Mrs. C. G. Snow, Monogram club house mother; Dr. W. A. Olsen, and Dr. H. D. Wolf will tour the lawn displays. The winner will be presented with the newly-created University club trophy at the Grail dance this evening, where Roy Cole will hold forth on the Wool len gymnasium dance floor.
