Survey Shows Employers
Satisfied With '50 Grads
Students who get Jobs or ree-
ister with the Placement Bureau
do good jwork, according to their
employers, a recent survey of em
ployer opinions of the class of 1950
graduates showed.
The survey, conducted under
the direction of J. M. Galloway,
headof the University Placement
Service, shows that employers
were pleased witti the work that
Carolina grads did. Eighty-six per
cent thought that the college
training" here was more than ade
quate, while 63 per cent liked the
general attitude of 1 the Carolina
workers and 26 per cent not only
liked this attitude but were en
thusiastic about it.
; t. Carolina eaucaxion neips an
individual to get along with
others, according to the survey.
Ninety-three per cent didn't need
to read Dale Carnegie's books.
Of the 289 employers who were
asked to give their opinions, 90
per cent responded. They sent
back 264 questionnaires and .most
answered them in full. The em
ployers surveyed are located in
this state and many of the stu
dents employed by out of state
firms are working in this area.
Those students rated were those
receiving an AB or BS degree,
those registered with the Place
ment Bureau or who reported the
name and job of their employer,
and who were in non-teaching or
non-governmental jobs.
Of the 28 per cent who left their
first jobs within a year, 60 per
cent left to accept other jobs, or
for personal reasons, 26 per cent.
Of the 28 per cent who left
their first jobs within a year, 79
per cent could get a recommen
dation and only 5 per cent were
fired.
Some of the remarks on the
general appraisal performance on
the job and on other "aspects of
college training, were favorable.
Some were ? not. One employer
said, "I do not like the attitude of
most of your graduates." One out-of-state
employer remarked, "We
have three UNC men on our- per
manent sales staff and we think
very highly of the University of
North Carolina." "

- It's going to take more belt
tightening on the part of this
country before "we fool the enemy
who confidently expects us to
commit financial suicide," J. Wil
liam Hope, Bridgeport, ; Conn.,
newly-elected president of the
American Institute of Account
ants, asserted here last night,
"Though we may be very com
fortable at present, with . every
thing somehow seeming to work
out all right regardless pf the
calamity howlers it appears that
sound judgment should make it
eminently necessary for us all to
agree to a cutting down of the
frills and wastes in government
to pull in our belts, work a little
harder, and sacrifice a few of our
comforts under an austerity pro
gram enforced by a non-political
governmental .:. administration , "
Hope said.
Addressing a banquet session of
the 12th annual Symposium on
Taxation and Accounting at the
Carolina Inn here tonight, Hope
was introduced by Allen E.
Strand, Greensboro, president of
the North Carolina State Board
of Certified Public Accountant
Examiners. Frank L. Jackson,
Mayor of Davidson and former
Business Manager of Davidson
College, was toastmaster.
The Symposium, which will con
tinue tnrougn Saturday noon, is
being sponsored at Carolina and
Duke by the North Carolina Asso
ciation of Certified Public Ac
countants. This morning's and this
afternoon's sessions were held at
Duke. The final meeting consist
ing of a tax panel to be conducted
by Fred G. Eighhorn, Greensboro,
and John F. Prescott, Raleigh,
both past president of the Associ
ation, will be held in Chapel Hill
Saturday morning. '
.riope, discussing the govern
ment's fiscal policy, said "we must
realize that the central - govern
ment" has no income of its own
that it can use for relief of the
states, local governments and in
dividuals; we the people finally
pay all-of the bills. The re-routing
of expenditures from us
through the federal government
does .nothing more than add more
costs to the transactions; common
sense should tell us how economP
cally unsound this procedure ac
tually is ;and the sooner we stop
this riding on the Washington
merry-go-round snatching at San-(
ta Claus's brass ring, the sooner
we will get back on a sound op
erating basis." -
Hope said that the national debt
of 256 billion dollars sounds stag
gering until it is checked against
the productive capacity asset
which currently yields annually
an amount in value approximating

COLLEGE PARK, Md. Oct 19 The advance guard of the
Carolina football team arrived here tonight and found the
nation's capital : excited over the "revenge game" between
the popular University of Maryland Terrapins and Carolina
which will be played in Byrd Stadium before a near capacity
crowd of 40,000 fans here tomorrow.
The Terps, darlings of the local fans after their tremendous
victories over Washington and Lee, George Washington and
Georgia, are confident of their first victory over the Tar Heels
since 1926. Folks in these parts are taking Maryland and giv
ing better than 14 points, so well do they like their chances.
kjji paper tne Terps appear in
vincible. They are the seventh
ranked team nationally and come
into the game with the third best
rushing offense and the 5th. best
Ltotal offense. Coach Jim. Tatum,
a former coach andplayer at Car ;
olina, has two sets of backs who
Lhave moved the ball equally well
from the spht-T formation..
Tatum will probably start Jack
Scarbath, brilliant, at times last
year, at quarterback, Bob She-,

Not Squirrels Ag a in !
A Dorm Residents
As Haints Spook-up
Terrified
Halls
By Joe Raff
Call for Sherlock! What is the
mysterious sound erupting from
the walls of "A" dormitory? For
three years the "Ghost of A" has
been ejecting its shrill call day
and night. What is the answer?
The sinister menace of solitude
breaks the silence of quiet halls
and three - occupant rooms
throughout the gloom of day and
darkness of night.
Strange noises are heard by the
boys of "A" dorm and no one as
yet has solved the creaking corri
dor mystery. No one seems to
have the answer. Theories are
flying hot and heavy. Some "Dick
Tracys" have come up with leads,
but proof is still lacking to mn.
vict the ectoplasmic sou pair inf
haunting the dormitory. I
Cne boy asserts that the origin,
is in the showerroom and that the
ghost is nothing, more than an
un-oiled hot water faucet. Others
say that it is a lazy occupant wb
continually turns and twists in
bed. Still more believe that the
uninvited guest is a squirrel en
chambered within the walls and
for three years has been trying :
to gnaw his way to freedom.
What is the answer? We hate
to think our 100 per cent "A"
dorm ghost is only a rusty knob,
or sloth-like student, or even a
imprisoned rodent.
Maybe someday we'll solve the
caper, but right now we still have
our doubts as to; 1 whether, th :
sound is an hn.t-t
cry of a Civil War hero or a POM.
unromantic squeak in the water
pipes.
