eino' Studied
A study is being conducted by
the General College Administra
tive Board this quarter in the light
of possible changes in the General
College curriculum.
The study was brought . on
largely as a result, of discontent
in the School of. Business Admin
istration -faculty over the present
set-up of courses. -
If changes are made, they will
not be the first, according to CP.
SpruiH, dean of the General Col
lege. Last spring, he said, the
required amount of courses for
Business Administration students
was changed from 364 to 334 to
correspond with the requirements
for students intending to enter the
School of Arts and Sciences. The
commerce reading" exams for
foreign languages have been
dropped.
Also Business Administration
did away with several of its
sophomore and junior courses and
added introductory courses into
accounting and personnel manage
ment There is strong sentiment for a
four-year Business Administration
curriculum in some quarters,
admits Sprain, but it is not a re
cent development. It has been
under consideration by the trus
tees and administration for years,
he says.
'There is not any pressure
for a four year school, according
to T.I I. Carroll. Dean of, the
School of Business Administra
tion, and in my opinion our
faculty is not anxious for it, but
it is interested.
''They have asked me to
appoint a committee to look into
the steps necessary to take in
setting up such a school.
'This would become necessary,
he continued, "only if the rigidi
ties h the General College pro
gram for our students are not
relaxed.
"We would like to maximize
eiectives not on a free election
basis, but provide for election in
humanities.
Carroll in particular objected
to the foreign language require
ment for General College stu
dents and suggested that more
courses be allowed in science and
mah. humanities, and the social
sciences,
"I think there should be a max
imum of flexibility for freshmen
and sophomores in these three
fields, he said. "The emphasis on
memory should be toned down
and an increased emphasis
should be placed on the ability to
think."
Spruill said that he personally
banted more eiectives, but that
&a also wanted the foreign lan
guage requirement to stay.
Business A rlro i rict mf inn i not
professional school, Carroll j
Jointed out, and for that reason I
n did i not think a four-year
school should be necessary.

Blood Donors Meet Halfway
Mark; Navy To The Rescye
A late rush by the Navy helped
the Bed Cross blood quota to get
near the halfway mark for vol
unteers. The quota is 400 pints
but 500 volunteers are needed.
Members of the Naval" ROTC,
numbering 125, marched down
from their armory to donate their
blood, while other students in--T.;cf
CO TOP Coeds, and towns-
Uuuuib -
people volunteered to make the
215 total.
Donors seemed to be worried
more about the outcome of the
Yankee-Giant game than the pro
cess of blood transfusion. There
was plenty of orange juice, cof
fee and donuts on hand to snap
rAhe volunteers after they had
given their 'pint's 'worth-

Smith, president of the University
Club.
Coach Bob Fetzer and Chan
cellor ELB. House will be on hand
Friday night at Memorial Hall to
help get the rally started," he
said.
"After last weekend it appears
that the team didn't have the sup
port of the student body, since
only 75 people showed up. to give
the team a sendoff to Texas, he
said.
"The spirit isn't missing--its
just hiding, he explained.
Smith also announced that
plans are in the making for a big
away trip to Washington for the
Maryland game. "It will be simi
lar to the terrific pahty-parade we
had in '45, he added. The Caro
lina team defeated the Turps,
49-20 and the Carolina fans turned
out en masse to wake up Wash
ington in '43. About 6,000 made
the trip.
The University Club will spon
sor D.C hotel reservations start
ing next Monday in the Y. The
club has made 500 reservations
for students in the Annapolis and
Ambassador Hotels. Many Stu
dents stayed at the Ambassador
in '48. Smith requested that those
planning to make reservations in
the hotels, pay for them either
Monday or Tuesday. The cost is
$& for two nights, or $4 for one
night.
Smith has written Washington
police for permission to stage a
parade. Carolina .headquarters
will be at one of the hotels.
After he had. lost a scratch of
blood for a test of the amount of
iron in the blood 'That waxn't a

One woman, who was giving
out the orange juice, said," They

Red Cross officials were amaz
ed at the small number of rejec

reason. Yesterday only five got
the "Sorry, reply.

pointments can sign up in Gra

Grail, YVCA ,
Sponsor Plan
In an attempt to remove part
of the formality of UNC life and
give the Carolina campus a
"small-college atmosphere,- . the
Grail, honorary service organiza
tion in cooperation with the
YWCA will hold their first, 'Get
Acquainted Week-End," beginning
at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning.

bers and YWCA girls will distri
bute, from a booth in the Y courts
identification tags which they
hope will be worn during the
entire week-end by all students
and alumni here for Homecoming
festivities. Decorated, by a series
of footprints, tar heels, the tags
read, "Hi! I'm (so and so). Who
are you?"
The idea,, according to Grail
friendship committee chairman
Ed Love, is to enable all students,
aided by the identification tags,
to become better acquainted and
come to know each other by name.
The Y booth will remain open
all day Friday and also Saturday
morning.
Then on Saturday night, the
Grail will hold its informal Home
coming dance in Woollen gym
nasium from 9 to 12 o'clock to the
theme of "Tar Heel Tempo."
Music for the affair will be
provided by Bill Byers and the
Cavaliers of Duke and Carolina.
Tickets, which will be oh sale at
the door, are $1 stag and 75 cents
per couple. There wilt also be a
booth at the gym where those
persons, who have failed to do sol,
may pick up their identification
tags. "
Grail dances are open, to all
students and offered at low rates
to enable every student to take
advantage of them.
Proceeds from the dances go to
a fund which the organization
uses to provide scholarships and
loans for worthy students.
Chairman of the Grail com
mittee for the dance is Joe Pri
