Students got some idea of what "Are You An (X Y. C. I.?M signified- when they saw Bunny Davis, Jim Mclntyre,-Ken Bar ton, Mel Stribling,- and Sue Lindsay , picking ip -the garbage and sweeping away butts on Ye -Old Souths steps. The student leaders assumed the parts of local street cleaning and refuse workers for about vn hour. Funny part about it jus soon as they - swept up a . few cups, more would appear. Some students laughed it off as j ust another crazy aspect of student government. Some " just kept throwing discarded coffee cups ' ,y onto the administration patio. Was it mock humor or just that usual laziness that takes over the campus at 1 o'clock each morning? , It seems that this campaign, you might call it a "Get Rid of the Litterbug" crusade, start ed after a quiet talk in Dean Weaver's office on how to solve the problem. We hear that such measures as roping off South Building and closing down the Book Ex were suggested in the closed room but that the group, composed of students and Weav er, decided that a campaign like this might turn the tide in favor ' o a neat looking approach to the administration building so that visitors wouldn't have to blink twice at the litter. I guess it waa also a question of whether " the University should pay an other man to clean up the steps. T5e matter even caught the attention of President Gray. In fact, that was one of his top talking points to the Greater University Council a couple of weeks ago. Weaver, too, has been -asking students to be a little more orderly j with their cups, sandwich wrappers, and wooden forks. In spite of these pleas and continual ranting by this paper, no solution was found and no effort made to find one until this meeting in Weaver's office. I wonder if this large-sized hint will do it. Just for the sake of inf or ma -tion, we called up John Homey who's in charge of the Buildings Department of the University. He clarified the situation n "refuse' policemen," The Univer sity pays two men--theyre called "campus : laborers--EO cents an hour, for nine lrour's work per j day to police the campus. , i t" f J ' , .

"On cold days it's not so bad for the men," he continued, but on warm days with the sun abeaming, it does take some time to clean up, he explained. The men : police the campus from the Med.

The professional schools, es pecially the powerful School of Business Administration, . are trying to change General Col lege curriculums. While the cur ficulums desperately need adjustments, the proposed changes would cut the very roots ofjiberal education. -Faculty members and stu dents themselves in the profes sional schools argue that many General College courses have no direct relation .to majors and thereby represent wasted time. They argue, too, that students are unable to spend enough time, as it is on their majors to graduate with sufficient know ledge of their fields. - Opponents of the general cur- Keviews -JL - SYMPHONIE PASTORALE, French film version of: Andre' Gide's tale of emotional" con flict is currently showing at the Varsity. We "are shown a wide range of psychological percep tions in this story of a Swiss country minister and his blind ward., Pierre Blanchard and Michele Morgan play the leads . with acute sensitivity. The con- - cise, straightforward presenta tion with' which this is accom plished is the most outstanding feature of SYMPHONIE PAS TORALE., This directness is perhaps derived from Gide's craftsmanship, but-, credit must be given the film's directors for creating an austere Swiss atmos phere.

And, without a doubt, the language , require ments are silly in that they serve no purpose other than to provide mentar exercise for most students. There are other courses that provide better exer cise" and, in addition, cultural benefits. Just because language courses are impractical and add little to a well-rounded education is not sufficient reason to ' condemn the entire General College. Students who plan to specia lize in particular fields need a good general education so they can make intelligent decisions outside the area of their own work. Too many modern "spec ialists fail to understand and discharge their responsibilities as citizens. The point is appa rently lost these days that there is a great jdeal more to life than earning a living. On the other hand, students have every reason to want , to eliminate unnecessary courses so they may spend more time on important ones. The General College has failed: to lead students into an apprec iation pf the importance of lib eral education. And the General College has failed to provide the most significant liberal ed ucation for students; too much dead wood is forced upon them. 3 Dies fi Duel Scholarly Dr. Robert Vance sign ed his will, and went out to meet almost certain death at the hands of his friend Sam Carson in Sa luda Gap. Neither wished to kill the other, but custom stronger than themselves held them ta their course. . This North Carolina tragedy is only one of twenty true ones re counted, in Harnett Kane's story of duelling in the 1800's, when Southern gentlemen fought and died upon the field of honor.
