&oed Senate
Coed Senate is dying and its decease, should be viewed
with respect but with no remorse.
Let the Senate die die 2He death of an organization which
has served its purpose in the past but which has long out
lived its time. Let the Women's IDC be free to make and ad
minister those rules belonging peculiarly to coeds as the
Men's IDC deals with those problems belonging particularly
to the men students. Most important let us have one ef f i
iiient, progressive, representative student government.
In 1948 the dollar per term coed fee was legally abolished,
and, though the Senate continued to illegally collect that tax
until last spring, it exists no longer. Thus the Senate no
longer has funds to administer. Its. function as benefactor
for a sheaf of non-self-supporting women's organizations is
ended.
Since the passage of the revised Student Constitution the
membership of the Senate is ten at large members plus the
presidents of each women's dormitory and sorority house.
The present Coed Senate is a glorified IDC, nothing more.
Coed Senate has no reason for existence. More important,
it has become a dead weight, an organization without real
function, funds or support. It is in the province of the Senate
to make those laws which relate to coeds alone. With the
exception of social rules, no such all-coed laws exists. Those
social rules are the province of the Women's IDC. Thus Coed
Senate exists as a formality, a rather worn satin cushion for
the IDC the IDC which constitutes a maj ority of the Senate.
The IDC is an active," effectively workable group yet its
technical status is established as that of a committee of Sen
ate, it is tied to Senate, the funds allocated to it by Student"
Legislature must be doled out through Senate channels.
The time has come for this symbol of a day wheiv coeds
were a new quantity at the University to disappear. The
governmental system at Carolina is one of student govern
ment -one government for and of all students. This is the'
medium through which effective action may be taken. Sure
ly, there is great need for effective coed work and action in
Student Government. Shall the efforts of coed leaders con
tinue to be diverted into the ineffectual eddies of a dying
Senate?
Coeds have equal representation in the Student Legisla
ture where ' campus laws arb made. Women students have
taken leading campus roles in all branches of Student Gov
ernment. To deny the duties and opportunities of one govern
ment, to cling to a dead tradition is not only foolish but a
denial of the responsibilities of campus citizenship.

Reviews And Previews
- Time to go to Washington
again. How many of you re
member the last Tar Heel trek
to the nation's capital back in
48?
It was a sunny autumn after
noon when twenty-eight thou
sand Carolina fans waving the
Stars and Bars stormed across
the Potomac and proceeded to
dance in. the streets, turn .over
taxis, "redecorate' three hotels,
and shoot roman candles at the
Russian Embassy. The South
never showed so much moxie
since "Fort Sumter was fired up
on. Maybe we were a littfe too
rowdy, ' but we had more fun
than a pigeon with a Norden
bombsight. ,
The Tar Heel legends that
were born that weekend would
stretch from here to -Valhalla,
but my , favorite concerns the
Carolina Gentleman who went
to meet his lady friend at four
o'clock in the morning in the
corner room on the second floor
" of the Ambassador - HoteL He
knocked. No answer. He kicked.
Again no answer. He shouted
a galaxy of four letter words.
Still the room remained black
and silent.
But this worthy Tar Heel was
not to be stood up so easily.
With a single lunge he knocked
the door clean off its hinges.
Now, it seems our friend had
misunderstood a few minor de
tails. In the first place his date
.was waiting, not in the corner
room, but in the room next to
: the elevator. In . the , second
place, it was on the eighth floor
and not the second, and in the
third place it was the Williard
Hotel and not the Ambassador.
Furthermore, it so happens
our Gentleman had disturbed
the beauty sleep of a somewhat
high strung Mexican woman,
who, for some reason, got sore
and called the manager. The
manager dashed up the hall in a
night shirt and started spitting
out legal terms while our hero
was placidly offering the snarl
ing senorita a martini.
The manager finally simmer
" ed down and graciously offered
to settle out of court for a flat
sum of $29 to pay for the door.
Our cocktail Casanova swung
around and, after showering the
rr - -er with a volley of lusty
2:d pertaining to his ances
tory and sex habits, he reached
into his pocket, shelled out
twenty-nine ; bucks, hoisted the
door onto his shoulders, and
very quietly disappeared into
the night.
Before you go, please listen to
an 0I4 timer with a little advice.
.Watch that Yankee traffic. It's
treacherous. Be as careful as a
nudist crossing a . barbed wire
fence. Better to step on brakes
and be, laughed at than to step
; on the gas and be cried over.
As you wander through the
twisted alleys of the twilight
world you're liable to be tempt
ed by hard drink. Don't drink
;on an empty head ! A little wat
er, taken in moderation, will
never hurt anybody.
Make love to every woman
you meet. Even if you get a re
turn of only five per cent on
your outlay, it's a good invest
- ment. En jo y ; yourself. Eat,
drink, and be merry. Tomorrow
we may all be radioactive. :
Madam Editor: .-. 4
I have always been very tim:
and diffident . around peop
They scare hell out of me. T.
not very large and I can si
around . unnoticed most of tl
time.
Well, Saturday, I sneaked cv
to Kenan Stadium to see wh;
all the" noise was about and
was about this fellow Green trj
ing to get people to hold v
cards for the Collier's man 1
take . pictures of. His entreai
fazed me. I was sitting in tfc
top of a pine, trying hard n
to get in the way, but I cam
down to help him out. It too
guts. It .was the only decer
thing I ever did for U.N.C.
had to hold up cards for tv
people but, no kidding I ws
glad to do it. I did somethin
wrong, I guess. Everybody hate
me, I know that. They thre
these funny looking cards wit'
sharp corners up in the air ant
they fell all over me, makin
painful and wavy bumps all ove
my face and pate. I ran all thi
way home and by the time
got there I was so mad, Ipincbe
my grandmother. Twice.
You see why I hate people
You're a great bunch of profii
gate, depraved, vitiated, non
descript derelicts, a species o
atavistic degenerates. And what
more you're just plain mean.

- Ever since Dore Senary re
signed as production head at
R.K.O. to become a rather big
wheel at Metro, Howard Hughes
has tried to put his studio back
into shape. The first attempts
proved to be failures, but with
names like Jerry Wald, Norman
Krasna, Edmond Grainger, and
John Farrow, and stars like
Mitchum, Domergue, Russell,
and Wayne, R.K.O. seems to be
going great guns.
One of their biggest drawing
cards right now is a good film
called "His Kind of Woman',
which will play the late show to
night at the Varsity Theater and
. also starts a run at that theater
. on Sunday.
If someone offered you $50,
000 just to vacation in a remote
Mexican resort, would you take
it? Probably so, but you would
have to know about the strings
attached first. Robert Mitchum
accepts and finds things some
what hot south of the border.
It seems an exiled American
wants to re-enter the country,
and Mitchum would like to f or
get all about the whole affair,
especially since federal- agent
Tim Holt has been murdered.
; Even though I am personally
'prejudiced against Mr. Mitchum,
and haven't wasted any time see
ing Jane Russell on the screen,
Nthis film does interest; me, as I
know it will the average movie
goer. Miss RusseU, who pressed
several platters with Kay Kyser
on Columbia Records, manages
to deliver several catchy tunes,
and looks good in general.
Acting laurels however, must
certainly go to Vincent Price,
who is Mark Cardigan, ham
Hollywood actor, who likes to
hit the bottle and play with
guns. 'Mr. Price emerges from
this film, a fair comedian. Mar
jorie Reynolds, again in blonde .
tresse, is on hand to add gla
mour, and Carleton Young, cur
rently in "Hard, Fast , and v
Beautiful", is along for the ride.
The film originally ran two
hours, but has, been, and quite
wisely too, cut down to run an
even ninety minutes of well
blended comedy and rather se
rious drama.
On Campus
The Graham Memorial Travel
Agency will be closed Friday
and . Monday because Frank
Allston, Director, has been call
ed out of town unexpectedly.
The travel agency has been
doing a heavy amount of busi
ness fpr the past week due to
the large number of students
making railway and airline re
servations to Washington.
